After his speech, the God of Humanity gave me a new glance, one that felt much calmer than before. Paradoxically, the Goddess of Bees' goading seemed to work in my favour!
"I'm more concerned not with the 'why' and 'what' Nectus was doing, but 'how' his bees were doing that," Dalmanrach said, making me wonder again what he was thinking about. "In theory, anything in the universe can manifest this kind of power. In practice, this only happened once—when the gods appeared in this world. To repeat this event, even on the tiniest scale…"
"Shouldn't be possible," the God of Humanity continued. "Why, Richard, you've gone quite far in your pursuit of my likeness!"
'Uh, thanks?' I replied, but the God of Humanity wasn't really speaking with me.
The Goddess of Bees eyed me with that insect gaze I couldn't read.
