Just when they were about to get into a defensive position, Tyron suddenly recalled something. “Ah. Wait a minute.” He reached into his pocket and brought out a small transparent case. Everyone’s gaze settled on the case that Tyron brought out. Inside it was a small golden honey bee that was constantly letting out a buzzing sound as it flapped around in the case. “Boss, why did you capture this small bee?” Jose was confused by Tyron's action. “Surely, it's not to present it to the vice president as a gift, is it?” “Who would present a bee as a gift to their lover? Unless the president has another trick that we are unaware of.” As Kai joked, Walker and the rest burst into laughter. “Ha-ha-ha.” The tense atmosphere soon relaxed, and they resumed back to eating. “Shut up.” Tyron didn't care that he was being teased and explained to them, “This is the queen of the golden Honey bee.” “The queen?” The teasing laughter instantly halted, now replaced by a shocking expression on their faces. How can the Golden Honey Bee Queen be the size of a housefly? Unless it's a newly hatched queen, there's no way the leader of a colony would be smaller than her followers. Realizing that this might be the possible answer, they weren't as shocked as before. “This is for you, Sylvia.” Tyron stretched the case over to Sylvia. “Me?” Sylvia was stunned by Tyron's movement. Tyron saw the surprise in her eyes and explained. “Everyone here, apart from Ian, has two or more contract beasts to rely on. Having Sky only would make it hard for you to take on difficult tasks.” “Although, the Golden Honey Queen Bee is still in its infancy state, it would become a terrifying force for you once it grows up. The honey it produces can also help to strengthen your mental strength.” When the rest of the team heard Tyron's explanation, they all nodded their heads in approval. Basically, Sylvia was still the weakest member of the team. As their journey to the wilds becomes difficult, it would be hard for her to keep up if she doesn't equip herself with a stronger contract beast. Sylvia knew that Tyron was looking out for her, so she didn't reject his offer. “Thank you.” She took the case and stared at the bee that was flapping around inside it. Looks like she's going to owe Tyron a big favor again. “Nice one, boss. You definitely have a great insight. I didn't even think of getting Sylvia another contract beast.” Kai praised Tyron for a moment. “Ha-ha. That's why he's the suitable leader to lead our team.” Milo added. “You're right.” Kai nodded and began to chat with him. But secretly, they both paid attention to Sylvia in case any mishap happened during the contract process. Even though the Golden Honey Queen Bee was still a baby, one shouldn't underestimate its prowess as an A-rank beast. The white case enclosing the Queen Bee has a tiny air passage on the top to allow oxygen in. Sylvia gently made a tiny cut on her finger with a wind blade and squeezed out a drop of blood into the air passage. The moment the blood came in contact with the queen bee, the buzzing sound in the box became louder. 'Clack, clack.' The Queen bee's tiny body banged against the enclosed wall, as if wanting to break out of it. Unfortunately for it, the material the case was made from was very difficult to break through. “Ugh.” Sylvia's groan sounded through the cave. It was her first time contracting a stronger beast. During Sky's contract process, she didn't feel any resistance since the latter had already been beaten to submission. However, the Queen bee was different. Even though its IQ was still low, it knew that if it were to accept the contract bond, it would be tied down to this person for life. So, it resisted fiercely. Sometimes, having a low IQ also has its advantages. Everyone saw as Sylvia's appearance became paler by the second. “Should we put a stop to the contract process?” Ian couldn't sit still when he saw Sylvia like this. “You have to trust her,” Tyron spoke calmly. “If she can't overcome this stage, then there's no need for her to be part of our team.” Although Tyron's words might have sounded harsh, the rest knew that he was saying this to encourage Sylvia. Ian, who didn't detect the hidden meaning behind his words, felt even more worried. Ryker saw his state and said some words to calm him down. “You don't have to be so worried. When Sylvia first contracted Sky, her mental and combat strength were both at the E and C ranks. For her to be able to successfully form a contract with a beast like Sky, it definitely implies that she has a high forbearance.” “You are quite close to Sylvia, so you should know the kind of person she is. Do you think she's the type that would give up easily?” “No.” Ian shook his head. There's no way that cold girl would give up easily. Since she had made the attempt to insinuate the contract bond, it means that she's confident of succeeding. “You're right. She won't give up on something she started.” The worried expression on Ian's face faded away and was now replaced by a gentle smile. “Hmm.” Ryker looked at the smile on Ian's lips and then turned to Sylvia, who was still in the contract process. Sigh. What kind of advice can he give to a person in love? It's better to let fate take charge. Minutes passed by, and Sylvia's expression started to turn rosier. “She succeeded.” A vibrant smile appeared on Miley's face. “I knew she was going to make it.” Walker's lips parted into a big grin. “When has the boss made a misjudgment about someone. He must have seen Sylvia's hidden strength and accepted her into the team.” Jose said. “By boss, do you mean Esme?” “Shut up.” “Ha-ha-ha.” Walker laughed out. The buzzing bee in the box went calm and vanished into Sylvia's contract space. Seeing itself appearing in an unfamiliar place, the Queen Bee began to panic. When it finally saw the huge white figure in the distance, its eyes became red from anger. As the leader of a colony, a sense of territorial awareness has already been instilled in them from the womb. So, the moment the Queen Bee saw Sky's figure, its battle intent erupted. 'How dare someone break into my territory?' Sky, who was lying lazily on the ground, saw the angry bee charging at him. Unconcerned at the incoming danger, he adjusted to a more comfortable posture and continued his nap. Why does he have to worry about the silly Bee when there's an overlord master whose duty is to punish any disobedient beasts? 'Szzzz' In the midway, the charging bee began to tremble as it felt an intense electric shock passing through its body. When the effect of the shock vanished, its anger resumed once more as it thought that Sky was the one who snuck an attack on it. Just when it was about to continue charging forward, the electric shock resumed again. This time it was even more intense than the latter. [How dare a stinky insect like you rage in here? If not for the host, I would have burned you to ashes.] Listening to the words that came out of nowhere and the torturing cry of the bee, Sky felt surprisingly calm and a bit happy in his heart. At least, he won't be the only one to suffer the torture of the overlord master. Welcome to hell, Sister.
