Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 121: To train

Nessa was pleased and relieved after ensuring that her system would help guide her in using her powers, but her abilities would be difficult to master because they required knowledge of various skills, including that of the sword.

While speaking with the system, it informed her of some of the skills she would need, and after hearing them, she exhaled deeply because she had a lot to help with and learning them would take up a lot of time, but she was more than willing to do it even if it meant sleeping little.

Nessa was willing to do whatever it took to build a strong nation, one in which people would think ten times before thinking about harming.

[Lady Nessa, will you be able to learn sword fighting?]

"Yes, don't worry about that, I will get on it, there is a certain old Kijin who would love to help, thank you," Nessa responded.

[You are welcome; please contact me if you require my assistance; I am always available.]

Nessa smiled, then stood up and stretched as the same phoenix she had seen before flew by, and she smiled as she looked at its beautiful colors.

When the phoenix left,  Nessa went to town in search of Yanka.

"Dalia," Nessa said as she approached the girl who looked at her, smiling.

"What is it, lady Nessa?" She asked.

"Have you seen Yanka?" She asked.

"No, I haven't," She responded as she looked around then spotted Sai and smiled.

"Sai," Dalia called out and he looked at her before approaching them and bowing his head.

He said, "Good morning."

"Good morning, stop bowing your head," Nessa replied and he looked at her.

"Why did you call me, Dalia?" He asked.

"Lady Nessa wanted to ask something," She responded.

"What is it, lady Nessa?" He asked.

"By chance, have you seen Yanka?" She asked.

"Yes, he is by the river, training Aion and the others," He responded and she smiled then patted him on the shoulder.

"Thank you," She said.

"You are welcome," He replied before she rushed off to find Yanka.

Nessa knew the fundamentals of a sword, but she had never fought with one in a real fight, which is why she needed to train with someone who had.

When Nessa arrived at the river, she saw Aion flying towards her, and her eyes widened as she saw he was about to crash into a huge rock, and the whip appeared in her hand, and she flung it towards him, wrapping it around his waist, then pulled him back, and he fell onto the ground instead.

"Lady Nessa," Yanka said as he bowed his head and the whip disappeared.

"Yanka, please raise your head," She replied as Aion got up with a few bruises and he looked at her.

"Thank you, lady Nessa," He said with a smile and she looked at him.

"You are welcome, Aion," she replied, smiling. "You should be a little more careful, try practicing balance, it will help you."

"Thank you, I'll try that," Aion said as Nessa turned to face Yanka.

"What?" She inquired as she noticed him smiling at her.

"You know a lot, that's all, what brings you here, lady Nessa?" He asked and she sighed before looking at his sword.

"Don't tell me, are you here to train?" He asked as she sighed.

"Yes, I am, I need to," She responded as he looked at her.

"Well, just so you know, you have come to the right place, my lady, I will help you in any way I can," He said and she smiled.

"Thank you very much," She replied as he fixed his gaze on her.

"You are very humble for a leader; shall we begin now?" He asked, and she nodded then he handed her one of his swords, which she took.

"Lady Nessa," Aion said and she looked at him and his friends.

"What's the matter?" She asked.

"You still have time to make a decision, he is rough on us, we don't mind, but you are our precious, fragile leader, and we won't stand if he hurts you as well, quick there is time to reconsider," Aion responded as Yanka's eyes narrowed while staring at them and they began to tremble.

"M- Master, of course, you are the perfect person to train her, no problem, we will go practice as well, bye, best of luck, lady Nessa," Aion exclaimed as he and his friends dashed away, and Nessa chuckled.

"Lady Nessa, don't worry, I'll go slowly," Yanka sighed.

"Train me the same way you trained everyone else, no exceptions, I can handle it, it's the only way I'll get better," She replied as he stared at her.

"Are you certain?" He inquired, and she smiled before nodding, after which he sighed.

"Okay, let's see what you are made of, I still feel like I shouldn't go as hard on you," He said and she looked at him

"You are a great with the sword, you know best how to train someone, do the same with me, put aside the fact that I am your leader and do it please, I need to learn it, I want to get stronger so I can protect those I care about, that's more than enough reason for you to put everything aside and train me the same way, please," She replied, and he smiled before raising his sword and pointing it at her.

"Are you certain that this is what you want?" He inquired.

"Yes, I'm pretty sure this is what I want," She replied and he smirked.

"All right, now that I have your consent, let's get to training, I will make you a master, my lady," He said.

"As you wish, let's see how much better I can get at this," She replied, raising her sword, and they began training while Aion and his friends, as well as Dalia and a few of the others, peeked at them because Aion had gone and told them and they were worried about her training with Yanka so they came to take a look but didn't intervene when they heard what Nessa said to Yanka about wanting to get stronger.
