Ascension of the Monster Queen

While going back to the inn with Ian, Nessa stopped by a shop which was selling sweets and looked around when she noticed a few different types of chocolate and wanted to try it.

"If you want chocolate, buy, I assure you that they are good," Ian said and Nessa smiled, then brought a few things not only for herself but also for Isamu and Terou.

When she finished, they continued on their way to the inn where she noticed a few guys harassing the young receptionist, who was outside of the inn at the time and seemed to had been eating something due to the snack they saw fall on the ground.

"Hey, what do you think you are doing?" Ian asked as he approached them and Nessa glanced at him as well as the three guys harassing the girl.

"I suggest you leave from here quietly brat or I will hand it to you," One of them responded and Ian smiled.

"Hand it to me? Do you really think you can even touch a hair on my head?" Ian asked and the guy gnashed his teeth and was about to attack Ian, who punched him to the ground and Nessa smiled as they released the girl and Nessa approached her.

"Are you okay?" Nessa asked as she picked up the girl's snack and handed it to her and she collected it.

"Thank you, miss; I'm fine," She said, and Nessa smiled and patted her on the shoulder before returning her gaze to Ian as the other two guys charged at him, and he dodged their attack before spinning around and kicking one into a wall, then punching the other in the stomach before hitting him by the side of his neck, causing him to collapse on the ground.

"You couldn't even touch me and you want to harass a young beautiful girl, don't go harassing anyone again, it won't end well for you, am I clear?" Ian asked and they nodded in fear before picking their friend up and leaving and Nessa smiled at him as he looked at them, then the young girl bowed her head and Ian looked at her.

"Thank you very much," She said and Ian smiled, then patted her on the hand and she raised up then looked at him.

"You are welcome, this is a popular inn, you have to be more careful of your surroundings or more like them will come," He replied and she smiled.

"I understand, I will be more careful next time, thanks again," She said then went inside the inn and Nessa exhaled deeply.

"You can fight pretty well," She said.

"Thank you for the compliment, I learnt a lot of things doing different types of jobs, anyways, you go and get your rest we will all meet up at the guild tonight, right?" He asked and she smiled.

"Yeah, I will see you guys there, I am going to go get and get some more sleep, see ya," She responded.

"See ya," He said then left and she went up to her room, then locked the door and placed her bag down, after which she sat on the bed and stretched off as Isamu fixed the curtains and she looked at him.

"Here, I brought a few things for you guys to eat," She said as she opened the bag and took out a few edibles and gave it to them.

"Thank you," They said. Explore more adventures at m,v l'e-m|p| y r

"You are welcome," She replied before taking out a bottle of cold juice, which she brought for herself and drank it, then she sighed in relief before laying back on the bed and they looked at her.

"Are you really going to sleep?" Terou asked and she glanced at them.

"Yes, I am; if you need anything, just wake me up; don't hesitate, got it?" She asked, and they nodded, then she yawned and fell asleep after a few minutes.

While they were relaxing, the king's future wife, who was back at the castle, kept wondering about them while pacing in the backyard, and when the king saw her, he sighed and approached her, and she glanced at him.

"What are you thinking about at this point?" He inquired.

"Don't you think she's a little suspicious?" When she asked, his eyes narrowed.

"The one who arrived with the group? Nessa?" He asked, and she nodded.

"No, why?" He asked and she scoffed.

"Of course you wouldn't care about that, there is something off about her," She responded and he sighed.

"Now you are just saying that because she overpowered you, you feel threatened, it's only natural, but I suggest you drop this, I don't want to hear of it, leave them alone and we won't have to deal with any problems," He said and she chuckled.

"Is that all you have in mind? You never listen to me, I am telling you she's up to something." He looked at her with his eyes glowing green as she yelled.

"I don't care what they're up to, don't let your anger and pride that got hurt because of the girl get in the way of our job, you won't like what happens if it does," He said as he walked away, and she gnashed her teeth.

"Do as you please, I know there is something off about her and I will find out what it is," She mumbled while looking at the sky.

Later that day, when Nessa woke up, she saw it was almost night and she had less than an hour to get herself together and get to the guild.

"Lady Nessa, you are awake," Isamu said and she looked at him with a smile on her face.

"Yes, I am and I have to get going, we have somewhere to go after all, we don't want to be late either, they invited us for a feast, we have to be careful as well, I will go freshen up," She replied and he nodded as she got out of bed and stretched off as did Terou who had just awoken as well and Nessa went to freshen up so that they will finish on time.
