Ascension of the Monster Queen

After hearing what Sophia said, Nessa knew if they were indeed bad she won't have to worry that much since she would have help in dealing with them and she knew how to start.

"Well, Sophia, if they are bad you won't have to worry, I will help in handling it," Nessa said and Sophia smiled at her.

"We will help as well, you don't even have to ask; besides, I have a feeling something is seriously wrong with this situation, especially with that girl; why is she so fixated on the diamond?" Yonja inquired, and Nessa sighed, knowing that they were probably after the power it held, but little did they know that the crystal had already vanished from existence.

"I am pretty sure they are not going to find what they are looking for," Nessa said and they looked at her.

"What makes you say that?" Ian asked.

"I know this is not a proper answer in any way, but I just know they won't find it, that's because the diamond is not among us, not in plain sight at least," She responded as they exchanged glances, then smiled and Nessa exhaled deeply.

"Well, we don't understand how you care connected to all of this, I have to say you are quite mysterious, but you are trustworthy that much we do know and for some reason you have the presence of a leader, am I right guys?" Ian asked and they smiled.

"He is right, Nessa, you do have the presence of a leader, are you a leader?" Niva asked and Nessa chuckled.

"Maybe or maybe not," She responded with a grin and they laughed.

"Well, let's head back to the guild and we will split the money there," Yonja said and they nodded before heading to the guild.

After a bit of walking, they arrived at the guild and the receptionist approached them while smiling.

"You guys cleared the dungeon, congratulations," She said and everyone in the guild cheered for them and they smiled.

"Thank you," They replied.

"We are holding a feast tonight, it's been years and no one had managed to clear that dungeon until you guys came along, will you guys come to the feast? The guild master decided on it," She said as they exchanged glances.

"We can come yes, but will you come as well, Nessa?" Yonja asked and she glanced at him, then smiled.

"Yeah, sure, it's not like I have anything else to do," She responded.

"Then it's settled, it will start at about 7pm tonight, I look forward to seeing you guys then," She said and they smiled.

"You as well," Nessa replied, then the girl left to go do her job and they sat down by a table and Yonja took out the bag of money and they looked at it then at him.

"The money is in equal parts, so all I have to do is separate it," He said and they nodded.

"Well, you might as well get going, I am not helping," Ian replied and Yonja chuckled.

"Don't worry, you won't have to," He said as he opened the bag and took out different bags and they all left staring at it and he grinned. Continue reading stories on m|v-l'e m,p y r

"They were pretty much separate from the beginning," He added and Ian sighed.

"You sly bastard," Ian said and Yonja patted him on the shoulder before handing him his share which he collected it.

"Thanks, man," Ian said.

"Well, you are welcome, at least you know how to be polite," Yonja replied.

"Are you trying to pick a fight here?" Ian asked.

"Nope, why would I want to do that?" Yonja asked and Ian exhaled deeply.

"It's best if you don't answer me," Ian responded and Nessa chuckled as Yonka have her a bag of her share of the money and she collected it.

"Thank you," She said.

"You are welcome," He replied before handing the others their share.

After Yonja finished giving them their shares, he stretched off and Nessa placed her head down on the table, and they looked at each other.

"We are going to die of boredom if we don't find something to do," Niva said before stretching off and yawning while the others stared at her.

"I think you already have something that you need to do," Yonja replied and she looked at him.

"Go get some more sleep, we will be attending the feast tonight and we have already done too much in the past week, having nothing to do every now and then is not a bad thing, you should get more sleep since you all still look like you lack it," Ian said, and Niva sighed before turning to face Nessa.

"Nessa," She said and Nessa glanced at her.

"What's the matter?" Nessa asked.

"Are you going to sleep as well?" Niva asked and Nessa smiled at her.

"Why?" She asked.

"I'm bored and I..." She responded before falling asleep, and Nessa placed her hand under the girl's head to keep her from hitting her head on the table and the others smiled at them.

"She is still very tired, one of you do the honors of taking her home," Nessa said and Cortan sighed before standing up and lifting her up in his arms.

"I will take her back, I will be heading home as well, see you guys tonight?" He asked.

"Yeah, we will see you then," Yonja responded then he left with her and Nessa chuckled.

"Nessa are you going back to the inn?" Ian asked.

"Yeah, I am, to be honest, I am still quite sleepy, I think I will get some rest," She responded.

"All right, my place is not far, I will walk you back," He said as they got up, then looked at Yonja who was looking at Sophia and Nessa patted him on the back and he flinched then looked at her.

"Don't stare a hole into her," She said and his eyes widened as Ian and Sophia burst out laughing and Yonja sighed as Nessa chuckled, then Yonja sighed and turned away from them as Sophia peeked at him.

"Come on, guys," Nessa said as she left with Ian and Isamu and Terou followed her.
