"Now, go forth, my mortal champion! Conquer this world—or else!"

I lived a painfully average life and died by a stupid, stupid accident, but a goddess interfered, giving me a second chance in another world.

There, I became royalty—the lazy kind with almost no obligations, free to live in peace and luxury for the rest of my days.

Sounds like a dream, right?

In reality, it was anything but—because I became *BEE* royalty. A Drone Bee, doomed to die of old age in 2 months! (A humanoid bee, thankfully, but still a bee in all the ways that matter.)

The only way to increase my lifespan is to develop and grow my bee colony—a deadly task in a vicious world like this one.
There are murderous insect monsters, colossal beasts trampling the earth, other civilizations, natural disasters, and the bitchy patron goddess who absolutely hates me.

But as long as I have my brains, my bees, and the powerful genes my system gives me, my Bee Empire will be unstoppable!

For those who want to know more:
This is a wholesome comedic story, but it has some dark moments.
The focus is on kingdom building, survival as an empire, and interacting with MC’s beautiful bee wife and adorable bee daughters. 
The bees are all humanoid (see pictures) and human-sized. However, they are still bees in their ways of life and mentality.
Although there’s a system, real growth comes from putting effort and time. Nothing happens in an instant in this story, unless it’s trouble.
MC acts like an idiot sometimes (oftentimes), but he’s not actually stupid-stupid. When it comes to strategic decisions, he uses logic and reason. Even if you might disagree with it.

Also, there will be no smut (ecchi is a fair game), incest, NTR, harem or BL.

Reincarnated To Evolve My Bee Empire

"We can't just burn it? Why?" Researchina asked.

I'd really like to know the precise composition of this layered hill, but Watcher was no geologist. Everybody was no geologist, because geology wasn't invented yet!

"I think that black layers that Watcher described are coal or peat, and starting a large fire nearby will turn the entire area into a bonfire! Remember coal, girls?"

"Yes, you explained it alongside other natural resources. I have *excellent* memory on those." Researchina raised her nose smugly and tapped her head. "Gold, copper, tin, coal, clay—"

"We got it, Researchina! I remember that, too!" Things-Things interrupted.

"Girls, girls, don't fight! Fighting among each other is *bad*!" I said sternly and wagged my finger.

They both looked sheepish, but Researchina much less so.

"Father, but how else can we destroy the nest?" Bloodhero asked.

Luck is a fickle mistress
