Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 227: Hid

After a while of walking, they arrived at the city and once they came to Nessa's inn, they looked at her and she smiled at them.

"Well, this is me, what are you guys going to do now?" She asked and they smiled at her.

"We are going to go home and call it a night, relax a bit since we literally don't have anything to do, but, what are you going to do?" Yonja asked.

"I am going to relax as well..." She responded while thinking and Sophia's eyes narrowed while looking at her.

"What are you thinking about?" Sophia asked and Nessa glanced at her.

"Nothing, something just came to my mind, just like that," She responded.

"Uh huh, are you sure about that? It seems to me as though you are up to something," Sophia said and Nessa smiled then patted her on the head.

"Relax, I am not up to anything, anyways, you guys enjoy the rest of your night, I will see all of you tomorrow, hopefully," She replied and they smiled at her.

"We will see you tomorrow then, good night," Ian said.

"Yeah, good night and sweet dreams, guys," Yonja replied and Nessa smiled, then they left and she went to her room and Isamu and Terou sat down on the couch and she smiled at them.

"Come here you two, it's dinner time," Nessa said as she gave them their food to eat and they thanked her then began eating while she looked out at the city through the window while snacking on a chocolate.

"Lady Nessa, I don't want to agree with Sophia but you seem as though you are really up to something right now, are you?" Isamu asked and Nessa glanced at him with a smile on her face then she exhaled deeply.

"I am going to check out the castle," She responded as Isamu stared at her.

"Not what I was expecting as your answer, but I am listening, do you need our help with this?" Isamu asked and she looked back at him and Terou then smiled.

"Not with this one, you guys can be easily spotted, I will go alone," She responded and Isamu sighed while lowering his head.

"Are you sure about this?" He asked.

"Yeah, I am sure, I won't take long I just feel like I should at least heck it out, I have a feeling," She responded and Isamu chuckled.

"Feeling huh? Yours tend to be very strong, so you can go, but you have to be very careful, lady Nessa, we don't want anything happening to you, I made a promise and I intend to keep it," He said and she chuckled.

"Yeah, I know you made a promise, don't worry so much, I will be just fine and I won't take long, I will be back in no time, I will make sure to not be seen," She replied and Terou looked at her.

"Can you promise?" Terou asked and she smiled at him.

"Yes, I can and I will, I promise you guys I won't take long and I will be careful," She responded and they bowed their heads to her.

"We understand," Terou said.

"Yes, we do, now go on and please be careful, these people are up to no good, that's what I feel," Isamu added and she smiled at them as her eyes glowed blue and she opened the room door and left, then Isamu sighed and threw himself on the bed, wondering whether Nessa would be okay or not but he trusted her and opened for her to come back without a scratch.

After a while of walking, Nessa arrived near the castle and looked at the guards by the gate, then she sighed and closed her eyes before exhaling deeply and suddenly disappearing in the shadows, allowing her to pass through the gate without any problems or anyone noticing her, and she decided to stay within the shadows so she wouldn't be caught.

Nessa wandered around the castle, looking at everything from the shadows, until she came to a hall with the king and queen's photo, where she stopped, looked at them, and sighed.

'I don't know either of you, but when I saw you, I knew you weren't evil; I just hope I can help,' Nessa thought as she went towards the living room where she saw the girl yell at the king and he chuckled, then look back at her with a crazy look in his eyes due to which she jumped and Nessa hid in a darker part of the room, looking at them from there for her own safety because she didn't want to be caught by them.

"I am looking into the girl, Nessa is nowhere from around here or near by and do you know what else is weird about her?" She asked.

"The fact that she's surrounded by two of those beasts? Yeah, I know, I've heard foxes like those are difficult to tame, but she did it, I know and I have a bad feeling about having her around," He responded and the girl sighed before sitting on a couch, while the king exhaled deeply.

"How am I supposed to find anything on someone who doesn't leave a trace?" The king looked back at her and sat down, sipping alcohol from a glass, exhaling deeply before looking up at the ceiling.

"The guild master said that he doesn't need any information on someone who is good at heart and their job and means no harm to others, he said he knows that Nessa is a good person and that's more than enough for him as well as the others within the guild and he intends to not ask any questions, ugh.... These goody two shoes are so nerve wrecking," He responded and the girl sighed.

"What are we going to do? Proceed with the plan?" She asked and he glanced at her.

"Well, we came here to do a job, and that's exactly what we'll do; we don't want to be late, so let's build their trust a little more and show them what fear is; have your men dig deeper into Nessa," He responded, and she nodded with a smirk on her face, and the king's eyes lit up bright orange, and Nessa stood there staring at them.
