Chapter 2: That’s me?

Alright.. WHAT THE HELL ELSE IS THAT?

it's obviously a status tab, and it feels like I'm really in an isekai, bu what's with those stats??!! where is the stolen ability that the stories promised me?!?!

First of all, it looks like I'm a bee... and it looks like I'm pretty weak too... and these status, I'm a [Solitary honeybee] and yet I have the ability to create a colony, does that make sense?

Pausing to analyze the situation, I was born from a cocoon well hidden and tangled with dry leaves and clay, which sayss that, or I was brought here by something that aren't bees, or the bee how layed me? Are bees tath left their kids on they own. Regardless of the options, something was certain.

I was alone.

I am a human reincarnated in a bee, dropped alone into nothingness with a status screen to guide me and nothing more. What do I do? if I killed myself Would I go back to my previous body?... Did I still have a body to go back to? as far as I know he must be burned and burried in a pile of garbage and reduced to nothing.

Stopping to think... what do I look like? I imagined a fluffy bee like those in my world, more when I inspect my body... 6 Limbs 4 serve as arms and 2 as legs, I have a typical bee ass with a very small sting, I feel a fluff or a mane? that wraps around my neck, a yellow and black body with shades of gray, one thing was certain: this is clearly not my world, my world doens't have systems and bees like that!

I look around for something I can see myself in, a pond a puddle or a shiny piece of metal, anything fine! And, bingo a lake right next to where I was born, Well, I think it's a lake, as everything seems to be giant from my point of view it may even be a puddle. And now, how do I get there? it has a conciderable fall to the ground and I don't feel like I can slide up there, and if I fall and break all my bee limbs, I will become an incapacitated Bee and stay agonizing on the ground for who knows how long...

Wait, I have wings! I just need to know how to use them now...

....

..

.

In theory it's very simple: flap your wings and fly!, but it's more like one of those cases where it's easier said than done, my wings feel weird it's not something I'm used to, I have these bee instincts that tell me it's as easy a task as breathing, and yet I can't keep doing anything more than vibrating my wings without leaving the floor like an idiot! So that how be?!? The human girl who reincarnated as a dumb Bee that couldn't even fly?!

....

...

..

.

Okay?!? It's not going anywhere I tried to flap my wings fast as I could and I almost did something with it, I lifted myself up a little in the air, until I started to give up, I was so afraid of falling and getting hurt all over that I ended up giving up halfway through again and again!

....I know, it's no use standing here, but also theres no use in falling and getting all hurted on the floor!... ugh!

Is been some time since this, I know ok, this already dark forest was getting even darker, but more important finally, finally! I made it I'm flying, well, it doesn't seem perfect and I feel like a human who has never flied, gliding in the air, my wings move with my will and seem to work very well now, it even seems that after so long repeating this hellish flight, I feel like i know how to fly better, even with my fear of falling hows didn't disappear even a little.

 

-----[Warning]------

[Skill]: {Basic flight} has been learned and can now be leveled up to level 10

OH??! so that's it, [skills] can give you the ability to do a task or action even if you don't have any practice with it? More important, and the other way around? Could I do other things like singing, or climbing without a skill for it? Or are the [skills] the results of a repetitive effort, because well, I tried to fly for a long time, before gaining that skill, if i stop to think... if all bees are born with the knowledge to fly then does that mean we don't need the [skill] to fly? on the other hand it may also be that as soon as a bee launches flight it gains this ability. That seems important.. But not now at least.

I fly above the leaf where I am now and slowly fly to the ground, Ufff -- success, without any scratches or broken limbs. as I walk towards the puddle of water I end up being distracted for a second seeing the world around me, clearly it is not the Earth, Plants of strange colors, emitting witchy glows, strange shaped mushrooms are over the ground and tree trunks, there is a grayish moss that covers all of the ground and I even see fruits that I hade never seen before on a tree.

Arriving in the puddle I could see, even through the slightly dirty water, an insect face, mandibles onmy face, two antennae bending out of my skull and huge black eyes.

I stood for a while looking at what looked like a monster, that's me, I was that monster. And now, what the hell should I do? Until recently I was Hana, the human and now I am this, this thing, a bee in a fantasy world, what should I do, how should I react? I should scream, cry, accept this bee / Monster Life. Everything felt wrong, and I felt like a was frozen, staring at that reflection.
