"Yes, Father!" Destroyer saluted with her hammer. Her face was stoic, but her eyes were blazing. "Beemarines! FOR THE EMPIRE AND OUR FATHER—CRUSH THE SKULLS OF OUR ENEMIES!"
I echoed her cry together with the other Beemarines as we flew at the young human Jit.
"FOR THE EMPIRE AND OUR FATHER!!"
Our voices were so loud, they left my ears ringing.
They carried even to Jit, whose head was almost up with the clouds. A moment earlier, the giant's eyes were scanning the surroundings, searching for me and my bees, but now he immediately refocused on us and turned to us in alarm.
The middle-aged man, Vit, called out something.
Jit raised his jacket and waved it at us again, faster than before. This time his aim wasn't even close, but the swing still blew a gust of wind at my team. We had to fight to keep our flight even.
"Scatter!" I ordered. "Confuse the enemy—he can't attack us all at once!"
My bodyguards hesitated for a moment, but then Destroyed nodded to them.
