Let's Go! Off To Bee's Homeland!

Evelyn: Your homeland? Are you serious right now?!
Bee: Of course I am! I've never been more serious in my life!
Ume: And how do you think we should get there? Colonel said your kind resides in another dimension!

Bee stretches out its foreleg, smugly wagging it.

Bee: Tse tse tse. I'm a bit disappointed, my dear Sage. Tell me, how do you think I came to your world?
Evelyn: When you put it like this... I never really thought about it.
Gertrud: And I never really cared.
Ume: Hold on. Are you saying you can travel through dimensions?!

Apparently having guessed it right, the striped insect forms its forelegs to a confirming circle.

Bee: Right! As The Chosen Scout, I can traverse dimensions using the Honeycombat! At least between our worlds for now, that is. But we will get back to that later on. First, we are going to travel to my home.

With the magical tablet still hovering right beside it, Bee taps on it, then waves its foreleg over it. Then, the strange device transforms into an actual honeycomb, but this time considerably larger, with a diameter of about one meter.

It tilts to the side and creates a 'honeyfall' flowing out of it. However, for some reason, it does not leave a puddle of honey behind on the ground. Proud as a dog with two tails, Bee presents it to the female group.

Bee: Tarah! The entrance to my world! Please kindly enter the portal, if you may.

The others get up from their garden chairs. While Evelyn, Gertrud, Ume and Candy don't look too happy about the sight, Chloe begins to dribble.

Evelyn: Bee. You seriously expect us to pass through THAT?! Right through that wall of honey?!
Bee: Well, yeah? That's the gateway to my world.
Gertrud: No way. Absolutely not.
Ume: Uhm... that's a little... is it even safe to go? We're still crossing dimensions there.
Candy: I'm supposed to enter this?! Are you out of your tree?! I'll be all sticky afterwards!
Chloe: Okay, I got this. Let me go first and try the honey to see if it's safe...
Candy: You and your cravings again!!
Bee: Come on, it's just a magical portal. It looks like honey and all, but this is part of the flashy performance.
Evelyn: Hmm... if you put it like that...
Bee: Now don't be like that. I arrived here safely, as you can see. You don't have to worry.
Evelyn: ...Okay. Then let us pass the portal. We need to go there to put an end to everything, right?
Bee: Correct.
Ume: Entering that thing without any empirical data beside a magical bee as a known survivor doesn't sit right with me at all. But I fear we have no choice but to try it. That may just be my insatiable curiosity for another, unknown world speaking for me, though.
Candy: Hmm... if it just looks like honey, but we'll simply phase through it, I think it's not that bad.
Chloe: What, it's not real honey? Aw, what a shame...
Candy: Chloe!!
Chloe: What?! I can still dream!
Gertrud: What are all of you saying all of a sudden?! You cannot possibly be serious there!
Evelyn: I, for my part, am. Please, Gertrud. Let us go, all of us. We do this for the people precious to us, remember?

Gertrud simply grumbles but doesn't protest any longer.

Evelyn: Well then. It is time to cross the border between our worlds.

The heroine team gathers in front of the portal, then swiftly passes through it one after the other in line. After all of them have gone through, Bee flies right in to follow them.

On its other end, four women, a girl, and a bee come out of the flowing honeyfall. All of them are completely covered in an awful amount of honey, slowly dripping down from them as they look down at themselves in dismay. Well, not all of them. The pregnant woman, on the other hand, stands there grinning brightly, joyfully licking off her face.

Evelyn: ...Bee. You lied to us.
Candy: Eeeew!! It's all over me!
Ume: That certainly is very unpleasant.
Bee: Hey, what did you expect of me? I somehow needed you all to go in and you never would've if I told you!
Gertrud: That's it, I am going to kill this insect now!

The sturdy woman draws a telescope flyswatter from behind her back, extends it and angrily chases after Bee, who flits away in a panic.

Bee: GAAAH!! NOT THE FLYSWATTER AGAIN!!
Gertrud: Yes, the flyswatter again! Get back here, you!!

While Bee desperately flees, Gertrud eagerly swats at the poor bee. In contrast to that, the rest of them started to look around, not quite believing what they are seeing.

A wide meadow with countless wild flowers, a shiny, almost golden sky, caramel-colored canyon-like stone pillars with honeyfalls amidst each of them. And most importantly, lots of oversized bees flying around, carrying honey or other useful things.

In addition, at the very far end, a giant beehive castle towers over the landscape. Completely overwhelmed by that sight, the heroines simply glance around.

Evelyn: Golly... this is incredible.
Candy: ...Wow! What is all this?! Amazing!
Ume: Astounding. This world feels like a mess and in order at the same time.
Chloe: And there's even more honey coming down from the pillars, yay!
Ume: ...Chloe, you should seriously watch your dietary habits.

Meanwhile, Evelyn waves at Gertrud to make her stop chasing Bee.

Evelyn: Gertrud, keep it down! Leave Bee be!
Gertrud: But this thing-!
Evelyn: Please! Just let it die!

Finally Gertrud stops and lowers the flyswatter, breathing an annoyed, deep sigh. With everyone still drenched in honey, they reassemble by the honeyfall Bee created.

Evelyn: Thanks for stopping, Gertrud. And Bee, I must say, your home is really nice.
Bee: Thanks a ton! It's great here, isn't it?
Candy: Yeah! Totally!
Chloe: It looks delicious.
Ume: *sighs* By the way, can I ask you something, Bee?
Bee: Sure, what is it?
Ume: Well, you're entirely soaked with honey, like us. How on earth are you still airborne?
Evelyn: ...Eeeeeh? She is right! How?!
Bee: Oh, wasn't that clear? Our kind is bigger than the bees you know, right? With that physique, we are unable to fly naturally. All of us fly not using our wings, but with magic.
Gertrud: Of COURSE you do. Everything is magic.

While Gertrud rolls her eyes, the worker bees around them halt one by one, beginning to mumble to one another as the swarm around them increases. A bit later, they find themselves surrounded and stared at by a great number of Bee's kind.

"Look, Bee's back!"

"Are those humans next to him? They're so huge!"

"It's five of them. Five!"

"They must be the heroes of the legend!"
