Chapter 164: Decided
Nessa went to the Orcs and took a seat in front of them, while they lined up, waiting to be named.
She began naming them one by one, and everyone was pleased because their names were similar to their personalities. Her system also assisted her in gathering names for them because doing it alone would be difficult and time-consuming, but because she was assisted, she finished naming a large number of them much faster.
Her eyes lit up green as she named the Orcs, and since Urul was nearby, he saw and his eyes narrowed as he approached her.
"Lady Nessa," He said and she glanced at him.
"What is it?" She asked.
"Your eyes are green," He responded and she sighed.
"Are you certain?" He nodded when she asked.
"What exactly is it this time?" She mumbled.
[It's acting up again; I tried to figure out why it was doing that but couldn't find anything; you've gained things from it, but you need to figure out what this is, lady Nessa, and where it came from.]
"I see, thank you for telling me, Urul," Nessa said, and he smiled at her.
"You are welcome," He replied then left and she continued naming the Orcs.
Nessa couldn't help but wonder why the guy in black killed those people and why the dying guy gave her the diamond with his last breath, and before it brought them more trouble than they already have to deal with, she decided to finally find out what that was all about, and she knew in order to do that she would have to leave the town, and at the same time she decided to form another alliance with a strong nation, one that people feared.
Later that day, after Nessa had finished naming the majority of the Orcs, she got up before nightfall and went under the tent, where she saw Liya and the others had finished making a batch of milk, and she smiled.
"We will need glass bottle or normal bottle to fill them in," Nessa said.
"I have a lot of good glass bottles and they are clean," Youthim said as he approached them and she glanced at him.
"Is there enough to hold all of the milk?" She asked.
"Let me check, if there isn't, you can wait until tomorrow, we'll go to the kingdom and buy them, for now the milk can go in the fridge and stay cold, it won't spoil or anything right?" He inquired, and she smiled.
"No, it won't spoil," Nessa replied, and they smiled as Youthim dashed away while they waited for him to return with the bottles.
Youthim returned a few minutes later with a case of glass bottles, which he placed on the table, and Nessa counted them before looking at the batch and sighed.
"It will do, thank you, Youthim," Nessa said, and he sighed in relief.
"There is no need to thank me but you are welcome, so will you guys full them up and place them in the fridge then we can take them there tomorrow?" He asked and Nessa smiled.
"Yes, that's what we are going to do, let's get to work," Nessa said and they nodded.
Nessa and the others made sure the glass bottle were cleaned and they began pouring the milk into the bottles then sealed them off using magic.
More than an hour passed them doing that and when they were finished, they sighed and placed them in the fridge after which Liya brought out dinner and everyone took their seats before thanking her and taking their food.
"I can't believe I'm this hungry today, but I'm glad we got the most things taken care of, and I'm glad we're moving along faster than expected," Nessa said.
"Yeah, we sure are, and that's a good thing; soon enough, we'll only have to build things based on new people or creatures that come to live here," Youthim replied, and Nessa and the others nodded, seeing how hard everyone was working to get everything done faster.
"Guys, this forest is a mixture of different weather, now is there any coffee beans growing here?" She asked.
"What does that look like?" Dalia asked.
"There are a lot of different types of things that grow here because of the weather, different and quite unique if I must say, it's one of the reasons why anyone would be overjoyed if they got their hands on this land, it's precious but you have to care for it as well," Youthim said and Nessa smiled before exhaling deeply because she already knew that.
"Well, I will go out and look at the different types of beans you have here, but not right now because we have other things to do and I am hungry," She said, and Liya smiled as she brought them food, and they thanked her before taking their portions and starting to eat.
While eating, Nessa considered many ways to help them in bringing in income. She knew they would help, but she wanted to wait until the road began to be build and until she formed another alliance with a stronger nation, one that could benefit them in every way possible in the future.
"Lady Nessa, are you leaving any time soon?" Riley asked and Nessa glanced at her.
"I'm not sure when I'll leave, but there's another thing I have to do, so probably when the road starts building and then I'll leave, I have to go look for something and I'll also form another alliance for the good of us all, the more support we have the better for all of us the more we will develop and that too much faster," She responded, and they smiled.
"At least we know when you're going, the road will start building soon and that's good but let's hope the best for you when you leave, out there is dangerous and you will need to be more careful than ever, a young girl out there a lone, like yourself could attract many more dangers than one," Riki said, and Nessa chuckled before continuing to eat her food because she was still hungry.
