Chereads / Dark Dweller of the "Dark Web" / Chapter 16 - Chapter 12 "Rani's Powers"

Chapter 16 - Chapter 12 "Rani's Powers"

Shivam had a rough idea that he needed to confirm with the Red Band, which could be very beneficial if it could be implemented with Bee Queen.

Shivam's question Red band, this hybrid queen needs insects to feed insect food that is insects, but lastly, that food transforms into vitality to provide itself with energy, so can I just provide it some vitality to replenish instead of its core food and can be utilized to replenish his pet Queen insect?"

After processing Shivam's inquiry, the Red Band AI responded, "Yes, you can provide it with vitality, but be cautious not to overdo it.

Relying solely on vitality may hinder its growth, as it may forget to consume food.

Additionally, do not exceed feeding vitality more than five times a day, as the hybrid queen insect is still an infant and may not be able to handle excessive energy, which could lead to its demise."

Hearing Red Band's advice, Shivam felt relieved and made a mental note to purchase a bunch of insects to feed the small queen.

He understood the importance of not overfeeding hybrid queen insects with his own vitality, as he didn't want to risk losing her, and she might be a great companion in the future.

With his focus still on the two guys, Shivam decided to let his queen pet do the spying instead of following or monitoring them himself.

Shivam previously liked the reward and wanted to summon it when he saw the queen bee, but there was an appropriate time to remove the pet from the holographic storage, so he did not summon it.

Shivam had made up his mind to order the necessary food online for the queen's growth.

He was determined not to neglect his first pet, especially considering its potential usefulness in various situations.

Shivam was eager to utilize the queen's abilities, but he also wanted to ensure her well-being by providing the required quantity of food.

With this in mind, he decided to order a colony of insects to sustain the queen's appetite and keep her healthy and happy.

Shivam had already grown fond of the hybrid queen insect, considering it his pet.

Despite its small size, he found the insect adorable and endearing.

Unlike many others who might be fearful of bugs or insects, Shivam felt a sense of comfort and companionship in the presence of his new pet.

Shivam summoned the queen insect from the holographic space into his hands, concealing them inside his bag to hide the queen's presence.

However, he could still see the queen clearly.

As he gazed at the small insect, he couldn't help but admire its beauty and cuteness.

The insect queen seemed to return his gaze with bright eyes, almost as if understanding him.

Shivam spoke softly, "I currently don't have a pet.

Would you like to be my pet?"

In response, the queen insect hummed with joy and flew around before settling back onto his hand.

With a smile, Shivam decided to name the hybrid queen insect 'Rani'.

The insect queen seemed to accept the name with joy, which brought a sense of happiness to Shivam.

From that moment on, they were not just owners and pets but companions on a journey together.

Choosing the name "Rani" for the queen insect was symbolic for Shivam, as it reflected both her royal-like abilities and demeanor.

"Rani" means "queen" in Hindi, and indeed, Rani possessed the rare and magical ability to control all the insects within her vicinity.

This unique trait added to her regal aura, making the name even more fitting.

With Rani safely nestled in his shirt sleeves, Shivam discreetly removed his hand from his bag and began moving toward the targets he intended to follow.

His determination to protect the innocent girls from the clutches of these criminals fueled his steps.

The thought that such a situation could potentially befall his own sisters or someone he loves filled Shivam with a sense of urgency and responsibility.

He couldn't bear the idea of them facing similar dangers, and he was determined to prevent it from happening.

Indeed, Shivam had firsthand experience with the rewards of the Dark Web.

The red emerald stone had awakened fresh potential within him, allowing him to harness vital energy and have a chance to open his chakras in the future.

Receiving two awards at the same time today was a positive sign of his progress.

He understood the unexpected nature of these rewards, knowing that they could offer him mysterious creatures or relics that could further increase his powers.

Shivam felt stronger and better prepared to face the challenges ahead with every reward he gained.

With Rani's ability to control insects and project their viewpoints, Shivam now had a powerful tool at his disposal to track the criminals' activities.

He could deploy Rani to observe their movements covertly, essentially turning insects into mobile CCTV cameras.

Shivam got to move to the location near the target while he communicated telepathically with Rani nestled in his sleeves, commanding thirty houseflies that were buzzing around the mall.

With a silent exchange of thoughts, he directed them to spread out and monitor the suspects' movements discreetly.

With Rani's control over these insects,

Rani clarified that her capabilities were limited to controlling worker insects, as she was still in her infancy and had a lower level of bonding capacity with other insects.

This revelation shed light on Rani's current developmental stage, indicating that she had yet to fully mature into her potential abilities.

As such, she stated that there are only a few worker houseflies inside the mall that could be controlled by her.

Shivam found himself intrigued by the telepathic communication he experienced with Rani, despite her limitations as an infant queen insect.

The buzzing and humming of the bees' voices in his mind were a novel experience for him, yet he understood her message clearly.

This form of communication opened up a whole new dimension of interaction for Shivam,

Shivam said, Okay, a few are fine..

Rani responded with a gentle hum, indicating that, due to the low quantity of flies, she would be able to control them for about half an hour.

Shivam assured Rani, "When you feel tired, let me know. I'll help you stabilize your energy.

Don't lose control of the flies. Start controlling them now."

From various places in the mall, small houseflies buzzed around, seeking out spots where they could find food.

As only a few flies who were worker houseflies moved under the control of Rani's ability.

As suddenly as the worker houseflies lost control of their bodies, they heard a single voice humming in their minds, compelling them to follow Rani's will.

They obediently adhered to Rani's commands, their vision was directly transmitted through Rani's mind to Shivam's mind in the form of CCTV displays, showing the view from the houseflies' eyes in the form of blue colored screen displays.

As Rani could see through the memories of all the flies and control their movements, she possessed the ability to transfer those views to Shivam.

Additionally, she could hear Shivam's thoughts, as he was her master.

Utilizing this connection, Shivam commanded the flies to a specific location where the guys were having their fast food while chatting with the girls.

Shivam listened intently to the conversation unfolding through the words of his targets, keenly observing their interactions on the restaurant table.

With Rani's unique ability to transfer visual information, Shivam had a clear display of what was happening, allowing him to monitor the situation closely.

Shivam noted how Alam, with his natural flair for comedy, effortlessly guided the conversation toward lighthearted banter, earning chuckles and smiles from the girls with his quick wit and playful demeanor.

Naik appeared less eloquent, overshadowed by Alam's comedic flair.

Among the girls, Shikha matched Alam's verbal prowess, engaging in lively banter with him.

Meanwhile, Bhavana, though quieter, occasionally chimed in with her shy demeanor, adding a gentle touch to the conversation.

The group indulged in their fast food, sharing laughter and enjoying each other's company.

After finishing their meal, the group prepared to leave the mall as they had classes to attend and lectures to catch.

Unbeknownst to them, every conversation and movement was closely monitored through the eyes of the flies, relayed directly to Shivam.

Shivam marveled at the CCTV-like display before his eyes, a testament to the power of the rewards provided by the Dark Web.

He couldn't help but wonder just how potent the Dark Web truly was, as it continued to bestow upon him these remarkable tools and abilities.

Shivam marveled at the vivid, high-definition view displayed before him, resembling a 2K experience with intricate details captured by the houseflies' perspective.

Determined to uncover more about their lives, Shivam followed their movements and decided to take a bus to their destination, as indicated by their conversation.

Shivam was keen to learn more about their living arrangements, having gathered from their chat that the two red target boys were cousins while the girls were classmates.

Shivam observed the targets' behavior in the presence of the girls but was curious about their true nature when they were alone.

Anticipating that they would reveal more about themselves in a different setting, he decided to tail them to their class location.

Noticing that Rani wasn't fatigued from controlling just two houseflies, Shivam admired her resilience.

He had previously reduced the number of controlled flies to alleviate the strain on her, a decision that seemed to have paid off.

Shivam was really relieved to know that Rani wasn't tired but fine.

But he couldn't neglect the fact that he had to order dead insects online.

As Shivam leisurely traveled by bus, he knew he had time to spare since he and the targets were heading to the same destination.

Upon arriving, he found that the targets had already begun attending their lecture.

While Shivam decided not to expend Rani's energy by monitoring the targets inside the classroom, his curiosity got the better of him, prompting him to command a single lone fly to keep an eye on them, which was a piece of cake for Rani to control for hours without a sweat.

Amidst the chemistry lecture, with students rapt in the subject, an unexpected chorus of buzzing cell phones jolted the flie that shadowed the two individuals with keen interest.

The text message appeared on Alam's smartphone, asking about the readiness of a package.

Alam confidently responded that it was ready, but Naik remained silent, not responding to the message.

Observing the exchange on their phones, Shivam's curiosity surged, wondering about the contents of the package they mentioned.

Various possibilities raced through his mind, leaving him intrigued.

After a period of time,.

As the lecture concluded, Alam, Naik, and the girls made their way to the guys' house, signaling the end of their time in the classroom.

Alam, eager to spend more time with Shikha, insisted on taking her to his home, emphasizing that it was the perfect place for them to enjoy themselves. Shikha, his girlfriend, readily agreed, excited at the prospect of spending time with Alam.

However, Naik's girlfriend expressed her reluctance to accompany them, citing concerns about being late getting home.

Despite Bhumika's reluctance, Shikha's insistence compelled her to join the group.

Observing this dynamic, Shivam couldn't help but wonder if friends like Shikha unintentionally put their companions at risk.

As he continued to observe through the eyes of the lone fly, Shivam realized he had no choice but to follow the girls and targets to their destination.

Shivam, while feeling frustrated at the wasted time, couldn't shake off his concern for the safety of the girls.

However, he realized that he couldn't intervene at the moment and could only follow them to their destination.

He noted that the location mentioned by Alam and Naik seemed to be near Thane, indicating that the girls might be taken to a potentially risky area.

So Shivam followed them from a far distance.
