Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 237: Next move?

Whatever the king had planned, his fiancee knew it would not be good, and she was correct, but as they became desperate, he knew it was a necessary move to make and was willing to go to any length to make his boss's plans come true in order for them to survive.

Little did Nessa know, she had gotten herself caught in the middle of a fight that would not end soon and threatened the fate of all kingdoms, be it small or large—not just her own home, everything within it, and everything beyond.

The enemies had already begun moving pieces their pieces to achieve what they wanted to within the lands and they were aiming for the ones which would only benefit them.

After Nessa and the others arrived at the guild, Nessa stretched off and they sat down before sighing.

They exchanged glances, knowing that they would be on the king and his finacee's watch list and had to be careful.

"Nessa, you deliberately did that back there, didn't you?" Ian asked and Nessa glanced at him then smiled.

"Yes, I did that on purpose, I had to do something to push him a bit, they will make a move, if not today, soon, that much I know but what their move will be..." She responded.

"That's what we have to figure out; the king appears to be on edge right now; what if he does something that puts the people of this kingdom in danger?" Yonja inquired.

"Then what are we going to do? There are only so many of us, and if he plans something big, we won't be able to stop it," Sophia replied, and Nessa lowered her head.

She started thinking about what the king and his fiancee would do next, but she realized that thinking about it wouldn't help them because they needed to be certain, and she knew she was the only one there who could find out what they were really up to.

"Nessa, what are you thinking about?" Niva asked.

"You guys don't worry so much, I will handle as much as I can, for now, you guys tell the guild what's going on, we need to prepare for what they will do next, they can use the entire city to get what they want, people fighting for their survival can go to extraordinary lengths, I will get help if we need it when the time comes," She responded.

"Are you sure you want us to tell the rest of the guild?" Yonja asked.

"Not everyone at first, we have to talk to the guild master first, then we will see if we should tell the others or not, it's a big decision," She responded and they looked at each other then smiled.

"We will go tell the guild master together, let's hear what he has to say about all of this, he is known as am understanding and open-minded person, I think he might be able to help us more than we think as well," Ian said and the others agreed with him.

"Nessa you are pretty caught up in this, aren't you?" Cortan asked and she smiled at him.

"Yeah, well, I am actually more than just quite caught between all of this now, after all, I have more than just myself to protect, I have a lot of people depending on me and I cannot afford to let them down, not after coming this far," She responded and they looked at each other, yet again wondering who she really was but knew they wouldn't figure it out.

"You are probably the most mysterious person that we have ever met, so tell me, how did you find out earlier that the king and his fiancee were up to something? That night when you were told that you were up to something, what did you do?" Yonja asked and Nessa chuckled.

"I sort of snuck into the castle and overheard the king talking to her about doing something, that's basically how I knew that they were going to do something, I just didn't knew what but knew enough to be careful," She responded as they stared at her.

"You are serious?" Cortan asked and she grinned then nodded.

"That's dangerous Nessa, what if they had caught you?" Niva asked.

"They wouldn't have, not easily at least and I always think before I do these things, I knew the risk and to be honest, it was more than worth it," She responded and Niva smiled while staring at Nessa.

"Why are you staring at her?" Cortan asked.

"She is just very determined and it can be both a good and bad thing in most scenarios," She responded.

"I don't mind taking certain risks, as long as I know it will help those that needs it, I am fine..." Nessa said as she placed her head on the table while playing with Terou.

"Hey, you are thinking again, aren't you?" Ian asked and Nessa glanced at him.

"Yes, I am thinking about how I will figure out their next move and only one option is coming to my mind that is worth trying," She responded and they looked at each other.

"We will figure out a way, let us help with this one," Ian said and Nessa smiled.

"You can help in any way you can and want to but first, let me try my way," She replied and Ian sighed.

"Fine, but let's hear what you plan on doing first," Ian said and she smiled, but before she could say anything, Ismau approached her and tapped her on her feet and she glanced at him then smiled.

"What's the matter?" She asked.

"I want to hear your plan as well," He responded then she patted him on the head before sighing.

"I can use shadow movement, it's how I got into the castle without being detected the last time, I can use the same thing this time and try to find out what they are going to do next, I will hide so that they don't even suspect someone is watching them, so that they won't be able to sense me, being in the shadows will help in many ways," She said, and they looked at each other, debating whether she should use her plan or not since it was dangerous.
