Ascension of the Monster Queen

"I will defeat them, no matter what," Nessa replied, lowering her head and clenching her fists.

"Don\'t forget, lady Nessa, you have us by your side," Dalia said as she approached Nessa, then leaned in closer to her, and Nessa pulled back slightly.

"You should rely on us at times," Dalia said.

"You don\'t have to do everything by yourself, lady Nessa, we are here to help as well not waste time all day long," Riki said and she looked at him as a smirk appeared on his face.

"I will kill them for you," He said with a deadly look in his eyes, and she sighed as Zeitaz tapped her on the shoulder after Dalia moved away from her, and she looked at him as a few goblins and other Kijins lined up beside them.

"Don\'t forget about us, we can defend ourselves now, better than before," He said as she sighed and stood up.

"I know that, but don\'t forget that you guys are now my responsibility; I don\'t want anything to happen to any of you, but protect your home while we\'re out there, got it?" They smiled before bowing their heads when she asked.

"Yes, lady Nessa," They replied, and she smiled as Fana watched.

"You are amazing, the creatures that could hardly trust, fully trust you with their lives, that\'s beyond amazing," Fana said, and Nessa smiled at her before she stood up and placed her hand on Nessa\'s head as her eyes and body began to glow bright green as well as Nessa\'s.

"What exactly is going on?" Liya inquired.

"I\'m not sure, but the energy Fana just released is soothing to lady Nessa, as proven by that little smile on her face," Riki replied, and Liya sighed in relief.

"There you go, that\'s completed now our relationship is going to be better," Fana said as her eyes and Nessa\'s body stopped glowing, and Nessa opened her eyes and smiled at her.

"You can call on me for assistance whenever you want, I made a connection between the Dryads and you, after this, if you win, we will officially serve under you, that\'s my promise to you, lady Nessa, I never break my promise, it\'s against our rules, I hope for your victory, if you need our assistance, call for me as loudly as you can, I will always hear you," Nessa smiled and patted her on the head, and she smiled back.

"Thank you, Fana, I will win, that\'s my promise, I never break those as well, against my rules," Nessa replied and they laughed as she grinned and Fana sighed, feeling more than just relieved.

"I will entrust my home to a worthy hand, you and your people," Fana said. "I may think of something else to help with in the future, but for now, I must return; I will see you soon, lady Nessa."

"I\'m looking forward to it, Fana," She replied, and the Dryad smiled as her body began to glow blue, and she closed her eyes and bowed her head before disappearing, and they smiled at her.

"Well, these last few days have been nothing but meetings," Youthim said and they laughed.

"It\'s for the betterment of our nation," Tehitos replied, and Nessa sighed before stretching off as night fell.

"I\'m hungry," Nessa grumbled, and Liya chuckled.

"I\'ll get you dinner, I\'ll be right back, let\'s go, Dalia, you need to learn to cook as well," Liya said, grabbing Dalia\'s arm and dragging her away.

"She does need to learn to cook, it\'s a fact, I can\'t eat her food, I\'d rather starve, die from that, or eat her food," Riki said, and Nessa chuckled before turning to face him and he grinned.

"You are so mean," She replied.

"Not as mean as the one who let you eat poisonous food," He replied and Nessa chuckled.

"Yeah, you are mean alright," She said and he sighed.

"Lady Nessa, that coming from you doesn\'t sound good at all, I am not mean, I just spill facts and I don\'t see what\'s wrong with that," Riki replied as she stared at him, unamused then he grinned and she chuckled.

"Got it, I guess I understand why you\'re saying that," She said.

"No, not you guess, you definitely understand," He replied and she sighed.

"OK, I definitely understand; is that all right now?" She inquired as he fixed his gaze on her.

"What?" She asked.

"You are very young," He responded and her eyes narrowed.

"Are you trying to pick a fight? Maybe I should call you old geezer since you are older than me," She said.

"Who is being mean now?" As the others laughed, he asked, and she shrugged.

"Her being young is great; it amazes a lot of people that a young girl of all people can achieve so much; it\'s truly amazing," Youthim said, and Nessa smiled at him.

"I\'m glad I started doing this as well, and don\'t worry, Riki, I won\'t call you an old geezer," Nessa replied as he looked at her.

"What made you change your mind, my lady?" He inquired.

"Because you\'re only about two years older than me in my age form," She responded and he sighed then smiled.

"Well, if that\'s the case, then fine; I\'m glad you\'re not like the rest of us," He said and she chuckled before approaching him, and he looked at her.

"What is it?" He asked, and she smirked.

"It will be good if you guys actually stayed, let\'s see what happens in the future, I have a great feeling about all of you, your spaces here will be unique, in a way, probably," She responded as he sat down by the table and chair as Liya along with the others brought then dinner and placed it on the table.
