As she looked at the disastrous scene before her eyes, Beatrice couldn't help but fall into thought.
Everything from human bodies to even entire houses could be seen being moving along the makeshift river that had formed, which was bringing them downstream.
"I'll have to alter my plans quite a bit..." mumbled Beatrice before suddenly landing on the ground.
Now that such an enormous disaster had taken place, nobody would notice, or even care if a few hundred or thousand people went missing.
"I guess I have to end my vacation quite a bit earlier than I expected," mumbled Beatrice before suddenly walking inside the estate.
...
Two weeks later,
As she looked at the over one hundred humans were moving around with weird, mindless looks on their faces, Antonia couldn't help but click her mandibles.
'Brainwashing all of them in just under a day, mistress really likes to give me the most troublesome work,' thought Antonia, causing one of the humans to suddenly walk up to her with that same mindless look in his eyes.
A moment later, the man who was now standing in front of Antonia began inexplicably screaming and clutching his forehead in pain.
Sadly, though, none of the other humans that were standing around seemed to hear the screams of the man, as they simply stood there with a mindless look in their eyes.
After a few minutes of straight screaming though, the vocal cords of the man had become somewhat worn out, making him become silent, as he simply stood there shaking from the horrible pain he was feeling.
By the time over ten minutes had passed, even the faint shaking had stopped, as the man now stood there without moving in the slightest, causing Antonia to faintly nod and move her antennae in a weird pattern before grabbing another human.
By the time Antonia was around one minute into brainwashing the second human, a huge ant, nearly seventy-five percent as tall as her, arrived at the scene.
'Antonia, what is it?' asked Canty as she looked at the Earth Ant Queen with a slightly curious look in her eyes.
Unlike in the past though, right now, no respect or reverence towards Antonia could be seen in the eyes of the ant, causing the oldest Ant Queen to feel faintly annoyed.
'Mistress wants us to prepare these guys for the human farm, I need some help,' said Antonia, causing Canty to suddenly nod.
The instant Canty heard that this was the order of Beatrice, she became serious and got to work, making Antonia feel somewhat sad as she remembered how obedient Canty was back then.
But even so, with the help of another ant queen, Antonia was able to quickly wipe the memories of this group of humans before implanting some safeguards and sending them down to the lower levels of the abode, where the new human farm was currently being built.
...
Several hours later,
As she stared at the five remaining humans in front of her, which was all who remained of that original group of over one hundred, Antonia couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, before suddenly freezing as she sensed something.
After around thirty seconds, the thing that Antonia had sensed revealed itself, as Beatrice soon walked into the room with over two hundred humans flying behind her.
As she looked at two ant queens, who were busy brainwashing the first group of humans, a faint smile appeared on Beatrice's face.
"It looks like you are almost finished with the first group, thankfully I brought the second group here in time," said Beatrice as she waved her hand, causing the humans to quickly fly over to the two ant queens, causing Canty to quickly nod.
'Yes, mistress, we're really lucky that we don't have to waste any time,' said Canty as she continued deleting the memories of the man in front of her with an excited look on her face.
Even though she had become much larger and more powerful over the years, in truth, Canty had not changed in the slightest.
As long as Canty was able to work to help her mistress or the colony, Canty was a very happy, litt- a very happy big ant.
Seeing the excited look in the eyes of the Ant queen, Beatrice could help but smile as she touched the latter's large forehead with her palm, causing the ant to become even more excited, as light flashed through her eyes.
After a few moments, though, Beatrice suddenly opened her mouth and began speaking.
"Canty, are you able to deal with these on your own in a reasonable amount of time?" asked Beatrice, causing Canty to quickly nod her head like a cute little ant.
"Don't worry mistress, If you need the help of sister Antonia with anything else, you can leave this to me," said Canty as she patted her chest with one of her legs, making Beatrice smile.
"Very well then, I'm sure that you know what you need to do after you finish deleting their memories, so I won't bother you any longer," said Beatrice before leaving with Antonia behind her.
A few moments after Beatrice left, Canty repeatedly began slapping her head with one of her legs.
'Stupid stupid stupid, I should have delayed for longer so that I had more time to speak with the mistress!!' thought Canty as realization hit her like a truck.
...
"Antonia, I want you to create more intelligent ants," said Beatrice as she walked through the long halls of her underground home, which had become much larger than before.
As soon as she heard those words, the eyes of Antonia lit up.
"Understood mistress, how many?" asked Antonia as she silently prepared herself.
"One thousand should be enough, don't you think?" asked Beatrice, causing Antonia's brain to suddenly short circuit.
As she looked at the Earth Ant Queen who was sitting in the middle of the hallway with a shocked expression on her ant face, Beatrice couldn't help but smile.
