Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 218: Quite shady

They wondered what she was smiling at but were glad she was at least happy.

Niva tapped Nessa on the shoulder, and the girl looked at her as she smiled.

"What are you smiling about? Did we say something funny or so on?" Niva asked.

"No, you didn't, you guys just reminded me of the people back at home, they would have said something similar to what was just said, you guys reminded me a bit of them and my purpose as well," Nessa responded.

They sighed, feeling a bit pleased to know that they were able to remind her about something important, they wanted to know more about Nessa but knew that they cannot force her to talk and since they were still getting to know each other, they decided to wait.

"Nessa, we are glad that we reminded you of them, is that good? It's good right?" Ian asked and Nessa chuckled.

"Yeah, that's good, I know I have others to go home to, I just have to hurry this up and finish my my work," She responded and they smiled at her before she placed Terou down and he stretched off as she poured herself a glass of juice and drank it.

Isamu appeared beside her while she was drinking her juice, and she looked at him as he bowed his head, then she crouched down and braced her head against him to see if it was really Isamu.

'Is it Isamu?' Nessa wondered.

[Running scans on him.]

[I have checked everything about him, there is no other type of energy within his body or surrounding him, he is himself, that is Isamu.]

"Good, you are you, now want to tell us what you found out?" Nessa asked and he nodded, then she sat down along with them and he stretched off.

"I followed him just like you wanted and I saw that he went to the castle, behind it to be precise, he was meeting with the future wife of the king," He responded and the others smiled and Yonja patted Nessa on the shoulder.

"You were right," He said.

"Yeah, I had a feeling that I was, but now that I am sure, that's better," She replied and he nodded before returning their attention to Isamu.

"What else did you find out Isamu?" Yonja asked, they were not used to talking with beasts like they were talking with normal people, they were a bit surprised that he could talk,  but due to them being mysterious along with Nessa, they didn't think much of it other than it was awesome.

"I found out that she wants him to keep finding out more about her and she wants him to find a reason for the king to believe her also, she thinks that we might have more information on the diamond, she finds something off about Nessa, she won't let this go, no matter what it takes, they want something, it has a lot to do with the diamond," He responded and Yonja's eyes narrowed.

"That's quite shady, why is she dragging this? What are they hiding?" Yonja asked as the king came down back to the lobby and he glanced at them as they looked at him and he winked at them before leaving with a smile on his face and Nessa sighed.

"Nessa, how much does the business you are on has to do with the royal family?" Ian asked.

"A lot, I suspect them for a few things to be honest, I don't want you guys to get involved in this, some things are just not what it seems, I am also quite tired, I would like to head back to the inn and get some rest, it's almost midnight," She responded as they looked at each other.

"We understand, but consider our offer, if you need help, we will be here, you helped us see things a bit differently, Nessa even though we harassed you when you first came here," Yonja said and she smiled.

"You guys were not bad to begin with, I will consider it, if I need help with anything, I will let you guys know, all right?" She asked and they smiled before standing up.

"All right," Yonja responded and she smiled.

"All right, we will be heading home now as well, it's getting pretty late and I am pretty sure what most of us can still think about is more sleep, good night, Nessa," Ian said.

"Good night guys," She replied before leaving with Terou and Isamu and the others left to go home as well.

After a while of walking, they arrived back at the inn and went up to their room where Nessa locked the door then stretched off before throwing herself on the bed and Isamu and Terou looked at her before getting on a side of the bed and she looked at them then smiled.

"Are you guys ready to call it a night?" Nessa asked.

"Yeah, good night, lady Nessa," Isamu responded before stretching off and she chuckled.

"Good night, guys," She said before closing her eyes and they looked at each other and a few minutes after, she fell asleep and Terou covered her with the blanket.

Later that night, while Nessa was sleeping, she began getting bad dreams and started moving in her sleep, due to which Isamu woke up and looked at her.

"Lady Nessa," He said before tapping her on her hand and she woke up immediately and looked at him then sighed before patting him on the head.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I am fine, was just having a bad dream, sorry if I woke you up, Isamu," She responded as he stretched off.

"It's fine, I don't take long to fall back asleep, everyone gets nightmares every now and then, it's only natural, you should try and get back some sleep, don't focus on your dreams, try clearning your mind, maybe that will help," He said and she smiled then sighed.

"Thank you, Isamu, I will, go back to sleep now," She replied as she laid back on the bed, looking at the ceiling and Isamu went back to sleep since he was tired.
