Chapter 60 Part 2) Lucky Chance Part 2 (Patreon)

“Everyone stay here. I will go in and use my aura to calm the bees and put them in hibernation mode before freezing the entire nest.” She had Khione and Lilith here as well, but she needed to do things herself, or it would not make for good training. She was putting her own ideas to work.

She took a deep breath and slowly walked over to the next very slowly allowing her aura to do most of the work while she also spread out ice in all directions. She had to be careful even if she was a hundred levels higher than the bees themselves. Their numbers were great enough that if she got attacked by them, she would end up dying. She did not even question this fact.

The bees around Desaray began to fly strangely before falling to the ground. Experience notifications were going off one after the other.

When Desaray reached the nest, she slowly placed her hand on it and closed her eyes. Frost began to build up on the nest but not overtaking it. She was not trying to freeze the outside but the inside. She wanted to kill every bee in one go. She focused hard on her aura and her ice magic, trying to penetrate the nest itself.

Lilith noticed the sudden change in Desaray’s icey flow. Her eyes widened slightly before a smile formed on her lips. “Desa, just like that. Keep it up. If you can control your aura like you are you will be able to reverse the flow and contain it in your body from now on.”

Desaray ear’s twitched. She had not expected that freezing bees would become good practice for her. She did not show any signs of acknowledgment of what Lilith said but continued to focus on her task at hand.

Ten minutes went by and the frost on the outside of the nest was nowhere to be found except for a single spot where Desaray’s hand was located.

Desaray knew she was doing something right because notifications were being spammed over and over. There had to be at least ten thousand bees in this single nest. All of them were level 300 and up, which was a very good experience.

Even she was gaining quite a bit of experience. But after twenty minutes, the next began to shake violently. Desaray’s expression did not look good since she was sensing come kind of danger. “Everyone get ready!”

Desaray quickly retreated back to her group as the next exploded, and a level 700 bee with a crown on its head suddenly appeared. “Appraisal!”

[Boss: Frost Touched Queen Bee]

[Level]: 700

Desaray frowned. She did not think the bee itself would become immune to her ice. “This might be difficult.”

“To think the queen would become immune to ice. Lilith, as much as I do not wish to rely on you, you will need to stay on stand by.” Khione did not want to rely on the demon girl but she had no choice in this case. Even her own ice was useless.

“I do not need you to tell me what to do. I would help even if you did not ask.” Lilith snorted. She was not here because she was not ordered to be here anymore. She was here because she cherished her time with Desaray. She finally felt like she had met someone she could confide in and treat as family. She may have to listen to Silas’s orders, but she would go against them, even turn against the man if she ever ordered her to harm Desaray. She truly saw Desaray as a little sister now.

“Good.” Khione still had no trust in Lilith. Whether this would change over time was another story, but for the time being, she only saw her as Silas’s pawn.

“Enough fighting. While it might be immune to ice does not mean we can not defeat it. I can still slice it apart.” Desaray created two ice swords in her hand. Ice magic was one thing; using ice to physically harm them was another. It was only immune to ice magic and not physical damage.

“Why didn’t I think about that?” Khione pursed her lips. She felt slightly embarrassed. It was true that immunity to ice and immunity to physical damage was two different things. You could not freeze, but it did not mean hitting it with ice would not harm it.

But this went for certain direct spells as well, like ice lance or ice spike. They were ice spells that could do damage physically while at the same time freezing the target. Only the freezing part would be negated.

Desaray smiled at Khione’s silliness before giving out orders. “I will attack first to gain aggro, everyone follow up on my command. Watch for any kind of notion that the boss is going to do an attack. Especially ground attacks.”
