Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 92: Their hopes

"Lady Nessa, we look forward to you being our new leader," The Orc woan said and Nessa smiled.

"As do I, I hope I can lead you all well," She replied and the Orc woman nodded.

"I am confident you will be a great leader, lady Nessa; you have already proven that and we would never doubt you," Youthim said and she smiled.

"I'm glad you guys decided to come with me, Youthim, you're all a great help, helping me bring my ideas to life, it's nice having people with your talent around," She replied and he chuckled then looked at her.

"We're all getting a great life out of it, so you're more than welcome," He said and she smiled then poured herself a glass of drink and drank it.

"Oh, another thing," Nessa added, "I'll be looking into more kingdoms with whom we could form alliances." see more mp|y|r

"That's great; but does that mean you'll be leaving soon?" Nessa sighed as after Tehitos asked and they looked at her, smiling.

"No, I'm not leaving anytime soon, at least not for the time being; I'll take care of things here first," She responded and Tehitos sighed in relief.

"Well, it's good to have you back home; we were concerned about you, whether you had enough money, and so on," Tehitos said and she smiled.

"Don't worry, I have and have had enough money, and the royals gave me more as a gift of forming the alliance or more like payment in their point of view of stubbornness," She replied and they laughed.

"Well, at least they like you, lady Nessa, we have a few ideas for the fields for next year, spring, would you like to hear them later?" Zeitaz inquired, and she turned to face him.

"Of course, did you guys at least plant a few things?" She asked.

"Yes, we did, though mostly potatoes, cabbages, tomatoes, and so on, the usual stuff, we aren't that great with agriculture, but using what we know and what we had, that's how we did things, and they are growing well," Zeitaz responded with a smile.

"That's good enough for now, next year we will do everything concerning agriculture even better, this year we have too much to take care of and since that came first, we will do that then focus on that later on, I can't believe months has passed by already, took time in building as well but everything is just as it should be," She said and they nodded.

"We all knew it was going to be a lot of work either way, but it's all worth it, right guys?" Youthim asked.

"Right," They responded and she grinned as she sipped her drink and took a deep breath before looking up at the sky and smiling.

"Oh, I forgot to ask, do you think any of the races in this land will want to join us? None of them will stand a chance against those guys, so it's best if we all band together and fight them off for the best outcome possible," Nessa said.

"There are a few civilizations, but some of them are really stubborn and put their pride over anything else, they are a bunch of pain, but I am sure after slapping some sense into them, they will listen," Dalia responded and Riki patted her on the head and she pouted as they laughed.

"We're not going to bully them," Zeitaz said.

"True, we can't bully them because they have homes as well," Nessa added.

"I know, damn it, and you're doing it from the goodness of your heart; if you contact them, we'll help," Dalia said, and Nessa smiled.

"Sure, you guys can help, if they're stubborn and go into a fight they can't win, I just can't sit by and watch them die when I know I can help, so let's give it our best shot at bringing them to our side," She replied, and they smiled and bowed their heads.

"Everything will go as you wish; we will give it our all, don't worry," Dalia said.

"That's good to hear, thanks guys," Nessa replied and they smiled.

"You are welcome, so what are you going to do now?" Dalia asked as Nessa got up since she had finished eating.

"I am going to freshen up, then I will help you guys out or maybe, I should go meet her husband," She responded and the Orc looked at her before standing up.

"I don't mind, it's just a day and a half walk from here," The Orc replied and Nessa sighed, knowing she cannot wait too long to get them away from their home or it might end up becoming a disaster.

"If you want to rest, one of us can accompany her, it won't be a problem," Zietaz said, and Nessa looked at him.

"Nice suggestion, Zietaz, but as the leader, I have to go, that is my duty, I will fulfill it, uh... I'll go freshen up then we leave for your village," Nessa responded and the Orc smiled.

"Got it, I'll be waiting for you, there's no rush, please take your time, my lady," She said, and Nessa smiled at her before Zietaz showed her to the small comfortable home they built for her, which she liked a lot.

While Ness was getting ready, Riki and Dalia sat down and looked at each other, wondering what their future would be like and wanting to decide where they were going to stay as soon as possible.

Dalia and the others of her kind were well aware that they would never be able to find a better home than the one Nessa was constructing.

After Nessa finished freshening up, she dressed and left the house, where she saw the Orc, Zietaz, and a few others waiting for her by the entrance, and she smiled as Akio appeared before her and she looked at him.

"I know that look very good, Akio, would you like to go?" She asked, and he nodded. She sighed and patted him on the head before looking at the Orc, who smiled and handed her a small bag, which Nessa took.
