Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 279: Threatened

Before the two could even attack Nessa, Terou grabbed onto their necks with his tail and lifted them up in the air and Nessa chuckled as she approached them, then hit both of them by their neck due to which they fell unconscious and Terou placed them down then the barrier fell and the others exited the guild.

"Thank you, Terou," She said and he gave her a high five using his tail and she chuckled as the others smiled then he pulled his tails back into the shadows.

"Nessa, thanks," Yonja said and Nessa looked at them then smiled.

"You are welcome, now, where is that guy?" She asked and Yonja and the others sighed a Nessa took down the firewall and the knights looked at them.

"I suggest you guys go back to doing your work and not get involved, you don't know what's going on, please, we haven't even harmed anyone," Nessa said and the knights sighed, confused about what was going on.

Despite being worried, they were ordered by the king to do their job so they decided to leave Nessa and the others and return to doing their work.

"Guys," The prince said as he approached them and they looked at him then sighed in relief, seeing that he was fine and nothing had happened to him.

"Good morning, where were you?" Yonja asked and he sighed.

"Good morning guys, I kind of slept in a bit and then when I woke up I had to get to a business meeting, concerning the guild and that's when, I saw all of this happening, I was worried about the guild members which is why I got here as fast as I could, I don't know what's going on, the knights said the king ordered them to do this and since he is their ruler, they cannot defy him," He responded and Nessa sighed.

"Good morning, yeah, we know they cannot defy him as long as he wears the crown, this has to come to an end now, it's gone on long enough, there is a limit to everything," Nessa said and the prince nodded as Nessa looked at the ones she knocked out and grabbed onto one of them.

Her eyes glowed orange as her hands got a bot heated and she slapped him so hard that he regained consciousness immediately and he looked at her as she smiled at him.

"Try anything and I will kill you, you are going to tell me what the king is up to next, if you have nay idea that is," She said as he stared at her.

"I- I don't know anything about his plans, he doesn't talk to us about it until it's time to execute it, I am telling you the truth, that's how he does things, he doesn't trust us, we all get paid a lot for our cooperation as well," He replied and her eyes narrowed.

"Money again, that doesn't matter to me, but you have a slight idea as to where he is right?" She asked and he nodded.

"The king is usually not here, but today he is and he has something else planned, he should be at the castle at this time unless he is already on the move and now with his fiancee's protection barrier, it will be harder to get at him, that much I do know, please, spare me," He responded and Nessa smiled at him then knocked him out again before looking at the others.

"I will go and meet him alone, after all, he will listen to me," Nessa said and the prince grabbed onto her arm and she turned around to look at him then he sighed.

"What do you mean? Why will he listen to you? He is dangerous, you go alone who knows what will happen," The prince said.

"I know he is dangerous and I have what they want with me, if we don't stop him now, he will have everyone at his mercy and it might end up being too late, the people don't deserve to suffer because of what they want," She replied and he released her arm before lowering his head.

"At least take Terou or Isamu with you," Niva said and Nessa smiled at them.

"You guys shouldn't worry so much, I will be just fine, let me handle the king in my own way, his bosses likes to play mind games with others, that's clear by now, well, I am not that different from them at times, I will be fine, you guys stay together and defend yourselves, he will send his men," She replied before walking away and the others exchanged glances.

"Should we really let her just go?" Sophia asked and Yonja patted her on the shoulder then he looked at her and scoffed.

"Hey, I am coming with you," Yonja said and Nessa scoffed then turned and looked at him as he approached her.

"You don't have a choice but to take me, this is my decision," Yonja said and Nessa sighed as the prince smiled.

"Well, seems like someone will be going with you after all, that's better than nothing," The prince added and Nessa glanced at him and he grinned.

"We will be fine, you guys get going and be safe," Sophia said and they nodded, then left them, but after they left, at the very same time.

A few of the king's men surrounded the prince and the others and they smiled as their eyes began glowing and as they attacked them, Sophia as well as the others used their abilities to fight them off and the prince helped them as well.

"This ends today, I am tired of this," The prince said as he protected a child, killing a few of the guy's in the process and after seeing the fight.

The knights of the kingdom, pulled the people within the city away from it, doing their jobs in protecting them.

While they were busy fighting them off as well as protecting others, the king and his fiancee appeared before them and the others gasped when chains suddenly wrapped around the prince's arm and he turned around and looked at the king with anger in his eyes.
