Trapped as an NPC in a Dating Sim-Chapter 87: BumbleBee!
*BZZZT!*
*Swish!*
As Soren and Aurelia quickly followed behind the twin sisters, they finally saw a massive cliff ahead towering above them.
Embedded in the middle of the rock wall was a huge beehive, easily the size of a small house.
Thick golden wax formed countless hexagonal cells, and viscous ’Golden Honey’ slowly dripped down the surface like molten amber, shining faintly under the sunlight.
But the real danger was the swarm guarding it.
*BZZZZT!*
Soren saw a large number of giant bees flying around the hive; each one was nearly the size of a mouse, its body covered in hard, yellow-black chitin.
Sharp pincers snapped aggressively at the front of their heads, while long venomous stingers hung beneath their abdomens.
Yet in the middle of that swarm, he saw the twin sisters, Elara and Elise, move calmly.
"Falling Petal Dance!"
No, they weren’t just moving. They were dancing together with the blades in their hands, their long white robes fluttering with every step.
Their blades flashed with beautiful white crescent lights as they spun past each other in perfect sync, the sight almost mesmerizing.
*Swish!*
But those crescent blades weren’t just beautiful. They were extremely dangerous, as the crisscrossing light directly cleaved the bee in front of them in an instant.
*BZZZT!* 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
One bee lost its wing and dropped to the ground, while another had its head chopped off.
*Slash!*
Another split apart midair before it could even attack.
Even with their massive bodies and numbers, the bees couldn’t break the twins’ rhythm for even a moment.
Soren could see that the longer they fought together, the more their speed and precision increased. Their attacks gradually become faster and harder to predict.
"Blade Curtain!"
Not to mention, their defensive strength was just as excellent as their attack power.
Not a single bee managed to come close to them, nor could their venom pierce their incredible formation.
"Crescent Slash!"
Each time they attacked, both of them shouted their skill name, cutting down the monsters in the middle of their dance.
They moved without pause, turning again and again to face the large swarm of bees, dancing in perfect rhythm as they killed one after another.
The way they wielded their blades, the way their bodies swayed, and the way they cleaved the heads off those massive bees that could bring nightmares to anyone who saw them was so mesmerizing that Soren couldn’t take his eyes away for a while.
To be honest, they looked incredibly beautiful, even to Aurelia.
’Twin Blademasters are really something else.’
Soren had to admit that this was the best dance he had seen in both his lives.
Maybe this was what people called a dance of death.
"Soren, we seem to have been discovered."
Just as he was distracted, Aurelia shouted from the side, already launching a fiery lance toward a certain direction.
*Swish!*
The spear tore through the air, shooting straight at a massive bee that had flown too close to them.
Unfortunately, her aim was a little off, and the attack missed the target.
"Explode!"
But Aurelia had clearly expected that. The moment the spear passed the monster, it suddenly detonated at her command.
*Boom!*
A violent fireball erupted in the air.
In an instant, the bee monster, nearly the size of a mouse, dropped from the sky, deader than dead.
"Let’s go. They are already ahead. We cannot let them be the winners."
That was only one bee after all.
Soren could already see around fifty of them rushing toward their direction rapidly, their wings buzzing in perfect sync.
It seemed his plan to sneakily steal the honey was doomed from the start.
With the massive cliffs looming above and the swarm of sensitive yet incredibly aggressive bees around, even an assassin would have been discovered, let alone them.
"Okay, let’s go. Be careful!"
Yet watching the twin sisters dispatch the bees with effortless precision, Soren felt that dealing with the swarm itself might not be too difficult.
The only real concern was the sheer number of them. But for Soren, numbers were never something to worry about.
Still, before moving in, he activated his Eye of Insight to carefully observe the bees,

"Aurelia, shield your ears with your mana."
The moment Soren noticed their special trait, he warned her, while quickly shielding his own ears and drawing his damaged C-rank bow.
He still hadn’t met Isolde to repair it.
"Oh? Okay..."
Aurelia was a bit confused, but immediately did as she was told.
And just as she did it, she suddenly saw the dozens of bees in front beating their wings in perfect unison, the motion instantly creating a dense white cloud that shimmered in the sunlight.
*Whoooose!*
With that, the air seemed to vibrate violently while the low-frequency noise struck her eardrums like a battering ram, sending a sharp numbness through her head.
For a moment, she became a bit dizzy.
’No wonder he told me to shield my ears.’
Aurelia breathed a sigh of relief as she really didn’t think they were capable of a sound-based attack.
Even more terrifying, the swarm didn’t just create sound as they began coordinating their attacks with ruthless precision.
It seemed that because Aurelia burned one of them to a crisp, they put more emphasis on her, surrounding her in a tight formation.
*Swish!*
As one bee lunged, dozens mirrored its movement, forming a deadly web of pincers and stingers.
She could see that every strike was calculated while every angle of her escape route was covered.
All the while, from their sound-based attack to their rapid descent, not even a second had passed.
If she had lost focus for even a moment due to that sound attack, she would have been badly hurt.
Not to mention the stingers laced with venom that looked deadly from every angle.
