I am a worker ant. (🐜) In the morning, the Queen will send her troops to gather food. At night, we work on the construction of our dwellings.
Sometimes, the Queen ant would be angry at us, worker ants, for not having met our quota for the day of gathering food.
However, we are not mad at all. Because we know that the Queen is also doing it for her people. The Queen is a kind ant. (🐜)
One day, a gigantic figure suddenly appeared before us. His eyes are big, his face somewhat soft looking but when you try to pierce it, you won't be able to leave a scratch at all! He is also bipedal.
That mysterious being is very different from us, ants. Every walk he makes covers a few kilometers in distance. It would take us hours to catch up on the mysterious being's step.
We, ants, were amazed by the sight of a mysterious being. We now realized that this world is full of mysteries filled with dangers!
We resumed our duties still filled with unspeakable excitement inside. The worker ants wanted to venture out and seek the truth so they conveyed their thoughts to the Queen.
However, It was met with harsh repudiation. It was the first time we saw the Queen genuinely get mad. The soldier ant couldn't help but placate the Queen who was shivering in rage.
"You don't know what is on the outside and the true identity of that mysterious being you were calling!"
"My Queen, please pray tell what is its true Identity!"
The Queen looked at the ants before her eyes as they eagerly await for her answer. She lets out an exhausted sigh as she remembers her childhood days.

"It's a God. Back when I was a child, I saw a nightmare happening before my eyes. God was squatting but It still looked like a mountain to us. She looked at us with her gigantic eyes and reached her hand towards my royal father. My royal father feels like an ant before God… wait, he's an ant, yes. The soldier ants saw their king caught by the God and gathered to surround it but alas, they couldn't do anything to her. My royal father's life was easily extinguished like a bubble by just a pinch of that God… Then, she started a slaughter. She altered the weather to make it rain! Every drop of the rain can kill us! It was hell! I couldn't do anything and cowered on the ground, shivering!..."
The worker ants who were kneeling on the floor gasped in shock. Their faces turned pale in horror as they lowered their heads in shame.
To think that they would be the one to unearth the dark history of their Queen. Unforgivable. Suddenly, the door of the audience room burst open as a stumbling and panting in exhaustion soldier ant entered. Looking at his condition, few of his limbs were torn off.
"We are under attacked!"
"What!? What happened!? Who is attacking us!?"
"My Queen, a foot suddenly descended from the heavens! It wasted a large area of our settlement!"
The Queen stood up in horror 😱 as she hurriedly ordered everyone to evacuate the place. She then sat down with her pale complexion.
The worker ants stood rooted in place as their expression turned stiff. Ever since that day, we called that being, Wandering God.
The ants couldn't predict when God moves and every time It did, a settlement would be destroyed.
One day, a brave ant couldn't stand it anymore and started an excursion to fight the God that plagues their lives.
He journeyed the everlasting land and saw God sleeping. He was like a mountain range when he sleeps and a mountain that reaches the void when he stands.
The brave ant stood on God's arm. He raised his fangs and shouted in the sky. ”For the ants!” and sunk his fangs piercing the skin of God.
Startled, God awoke from his sleep and hurriedly flicked the ant on his arm. The ant that was flicked collided with a wall and took heavy damage.
Blood filled his body as he stared hatefully at the being who was scratching its skin.
"Someday, the ants will triumph… and escape… our… destiny…"
The brave ant who stood against God, laid on the floor covered with wounds never to open his eyes again and greeted the afterlife.

Meanwhile, Yamihr stood up from his bed, scratching his skin and called Martha. She hurriedly answered her prince's call as she entered the room worriedly.
"I was bitten by an ant earlier…"
Yamihr explained to Martha while scratching his skin. She exclaimed in shock and inspected the reddish skin on Yamihr.
"What!? It's the ants again?! Don't worry Yamhs-sama, I'll spray something on them and exterminate all their kinds!"
She fumes in rage as she sprayed a solution on the ants while smiling evilly.
