Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 181: Their job



The receptionist tapped Nessa on the shoulder after noticing how determined she was, and she looked at the girl who smiled at her.

"I'll set up a meeting with the master for you; come back tomorrow around midday; he'll be there by then, got it?" Nessa smiled after she asked.

"Thank you very much, this means a lot, uh... What is your name?" Nessa asked.

"Lidia, you can choose a simple job for now if you want as long as you can get it done by midday tomorrow or maybe you can accompany these bunch on their job," She responded before going back to doing her job and Nessa turned to look at them and Yonja looked away from her as a smirk appeared on her face.

"Hey, what is your job about?" She asked and he sighed.

"That's none of your business now, is it?" He asked.

"Well since she told me that I can come along with you guys if I want, I want to know, that makes it a bit of my business," She responded and he exhaled deeply as the other members in his group burst out laughing and he looked at them and they stopped laughing immediately.

"We are just going to get rid of a fire wolf from a nearby farm, it has been causing a  bit of a problem lately, burning the crops for some reason, I think this might be the last one of its kind," He said.

"Can I come then?" She asked and he glanced at her.

"Fine, guess we will have to split the money today, come on, follow us, I know you are new around here and still don't know your way around and you might want to be careful with that little fox of yours," He responded as they walked away and she followed them.

"It's cute, but if you misplace it by accident, you won't get it back; their kind fetches a high price and can make a poor person rich overnight," The brunette said, and Nessa gripped Isamu's paw tightly while smiling at him, knowing no one would be able to take him even if she did miss him from her sights, but she didn't want to take any chances.

"Thank you for the warning, I will be more cautious with him from now on, I still have a lot to learn about this place," She replied and the girl smiled.

"You are welcome," She said as they walked through the streets of the city, heading out of it.

Nessa looked at the hillsides of the city and smiled as she saw the flowers they passed by on the hill and Isamu jumped out of her arm and picked one, then brought it back and handed it to her and she chuckled before collecting it.

"That's a sensible fox," Yonja said.

"Oh come on, give him more credit than that, he is so cute, give him to me," The girl said and Nessa smiled.

"Nope, this is my precious little friend, tell me, you guys aren't going in the dungeon are you?" She asked with her eyes narrowing and the girl sighed.

"Call me Sophia, yes, we are going in the dungeon with the group," She responded.

"He was talking me out of even trying to go, why would you guys go then?" She asked.

"Money," They responded and she sighed.

"You are willing to get yourself killed for money?" She asked as they kept on walking and Yonja chuckled.

"We are not going to get killed, going in, that dungeon is worth it, it has many gold and so on, we could make a good fortune and won't have to worry about going on so many jobs," Yonja responded and Nessa looked at Isamu then she smiled.

"I understand, after all, most things are run by money, you need money to survive," She said and Yonja smiled before nodding.

"What brings you in this city, Nessa?" Sophia asked.

"I came here on business, I'm looking for something that might take a little longer to find than I thought, you guys entertained me a little, you know, not because others look down on you means you have to look down on others better than you, despite destroying his things in his shop, he doesn't hate you, you guys are not evil, not at heart, you just need people to see you," She responded and Yonja's eyes widened as they lowered their heads.

"I know I'm right, if you were evil, I would have killed all of you, but you are not, you just hate the fact that some people don't even work to get what they want and just show off, you took your frustrations out on that poor guy, he doesn't deserve it, no at all, he is a good person, I suggest you fix it or you'll make people hate you," She said and Sophia smiled.

"I hate to admit it, but she is right on spot with that," She replied and Nessa grinned. Stay connected to the story on m-vl-em-py-r

"Yeah, I know that she is right, but we have a job to focus on right now, let's get it over before nightfall, I don't want to have to deal with such a creature during the night," Yonja said and Sophia patted him on the shoulder as Nessa placed Isamu down and he stretched off as they arrived at the village and Nessa looked at how big and lively it was.

"It sure is nice up here, they are getting a good view of the city as well," Nessa said.

"Yeah, they sure are but right now, they are in trouble, the knights won't come to help with these situations when they have other things to take care of, they can only spare a few, which will not be enough to help get rid of the problem, that's where we come in, we will get paid directly from the royals to handle the matter," Yonja replied and Nessa sighed before looking at the trees surrounding them and her eyes narrowed as they entered the village and the people greeted them then they sat down on the front porch of one of the houses.
