After that, we take down the third hive and the powered up one. And I learn some things from exiting and entering the forest repeatedly. First, I’ve confirmed this from making everyone smell like honey.
1: Maroon bee hostility and reaction speed decreases.
2: The area of effect of their alarm sound decreases.
3: When their alarm sound reaches a hive, Killer Bees don’t spawn.
4: The scouting group that appears in the third loses sight of its target when it’s covered in honey.
5: Fewer defenders come when we attack a hive.
6: No defenders appear when we also use the barrier, other than when we attack the powered up one.
7: Two hours after we’re covered in honey, the effects from one to six diminish.
Five and six in particular lower the difficulty of the powered up one a lot.
The first wave brought two Red Killer Bees and four Killer Bees, but it went down to one of each.
The second wave brought six Red Killer Bees and twelve Killer Bees, but it went down to two Red Killer Bees and four Killer Bees.
From these results, I can see we really might have stepped right into a trap of the dungeon. I left the first hive half destroyed and had Kasumi finish it just to check, and after taking out the second and third, the powered up one didn’t spawn. But there was no change to the defenders of the second and third, so it seems that depends on the number of hives remaining in the forest.
Also, here are the numbers.
Twelve hundred and eight maroon bees, twenty-seven Killer Bees, and six Red Killer Bees.
I’m level hundred sixty-eight, and Kasumi hundred sixty-five. Kasumi looks like she feels a little bad about her teammates, but I feel like it’s okay to help a little. Just enough that her friends don’t get too comfortable.
That concludes today’s tests. We go back, wash ourselves thoroughly, and remove that sweet smell. After we’re done with tomorrow’s honey-less tests, we’ll be done with the bee zone.
After dinner, we all gather in the living room, except Kasumi.
“Darling, is the gacha going to update again?”
“Yes, but Charge went up to II, so I feel like it will be time to charge it.”
“Well, that’s fine. It’s nice that you get more skills, but increasing your stats isn’t all good.”
“That is correct. Having too much Physical Strength for your body that Weakening cannot handle is having an effect on your daily life.”
“If Shouta doesn’t use the magic iron tableware he makes, it breaks right away…”
“Sorry.”
My base stats are in the four digits, and I understand that I’m well above the capabilities of a human, but the power I can’t control is bad for me. Lately I’ve broken several pieces of tableware and plates. I made furniture with Magic Iron Processing as a last resort, but even that is just a stopgap. The same will happen if my stats keep going up, so I really need to raise the limit of the power I can actually use.
Maybe I could just not roll the gacha, but not seeing my level and Luck increase will drop my motivation. It might be selfish, but I just have to keep trying.
“Good thing we’re also leveling up, uh?”
“That’s right. Or he might break us when he hugs us.”
“Uguh.”
That stings. I guess Kasumi also should raise her level…?
Anyway, let’s roll the gacha.
Clank claaaaaank!

‘0/110 remaining’
The box is finally empty.
I’ve also leveled up True Appraisal for the first time in a while, and got this Eye of Truth skill that seems closely related to it. Since it came out of BR, it’s a special skill, and it does seem unique.
And finally Compression is III. I feel like I can combine some skills that didn’t react to it until now…!
