Ascension of the Monster Queen

Nessa was pleased to know that those that thinks differently from her, would like to know more about a nation where there were no other humans and wanted to tell them she is the leader but knew she couldn't.

She hoped to show them what her nation was really like, but didn't want to expose herself, knowing that there were dangers greater than any she had ever faced before, out there and couldn't gamble with the lives of those that lived within her nation.

"Nessa would you like to visit there as well?" Niva asked and Nessa looked at her then smiled.

"Yeah, I guess I would," She responded before stretching off and Ian sighed, then looked at the time and saw that it was almost midnight.

"Guys, have you looked at the time? It's getting really late, I am too tired to wake up so early in the morning again, but I guess we have to if we want to get out of here fast, we don't know what will happen next, so I am going to get my sleep," Ian said and Yonja chuckled.

"What? Are you not tired? If that's so, then stand guard, damn," Ian said as he laid back and Nessa chuckled.

"I am going to sleep as well, there is no way that any of you will get me of all people to stay on guard, I am too tired, Ian didn't do much today, he should stay on guard," Yonja replied before laying back and Ian glanced at him with his brows furrowed.

"Are you looking to pick a fight now of all time?" Ian asked and Yonja wanted to laugh, but held back and the others looked at each other.

"You two are a lot like drama queens, maybe I will pay you for putting on an act for me sometimes," Nessa said and they all burst out laughing and Ian and Yonja sighed before closing their eyes.

"Nessa, don't pick on us," Yonja said and she grinned.

"I wonder who caused this to happen in the first place," Nessa replied and he scoffed.

"You really know how to hit someone hard, don't you?" Ian asked.

"Do you want me to start on you as well?" She asked and he looked at her as she smiled, then he exhaled deeply.

"Nessa, no thank you, don't start on me, good night and I hope you have sweet dreams," He responded and she chuckled.

"Good night, guys," She said.

"Good night," They replied, then Nessa laid back and stretched off before fixing her blanket and Isamy and Terou fixed themselves beside her.

After the others had gone to sleep, Nessa couldn't help but think about the diamond she had received from the dead king, and she sighed, wondering how it was all connected, but one thing she was certain of was that whoever had given them the mission to enter the dungeon knew more about what was going on, and she was determined to find out who it was.

"Why aren't you sleeping, Lady Nessa?" Isamu inquired, and she looked at him before smiling.

"I wonder how things are back home," She replied, and he looked at her.

"I am sure everything is fine, they would have contacted you if t wasn't, relax and get your rest, you need it," He said.

"All right, thanks, Isamu," SHe replied as she looked at the walls while he stared at her and she sat up as he grabbed onto her arm and she glanced at him.

"What is it?" She asked.

"You are not going to look for the entrance," He responded.

"How do you know that's what I am doing?" She asked.

"That's because, there are some things that Akio warned me about, you will try to work yourself out until you solve this, enough, you need to rest and that's it, look for it later on, you guys have more time and we will be right here with you if you need anything, don't worry, please, lady Nessa," He responded and she smiled then hugged him and he looked at her.

"All right, good night," She said.

"Good night," He replied before she released him and laid back down.

Nessa slept away a bit after and Isamu kept an eye on her for a bit, then when he realized she was in a deep sleep, he went back to sleep as well.

The next morning, when Nessa woke up, she heard loud noises and wiped her eyes then saw that it was Cortan and Ian looking for an entrance to find the next part which they had to go to.

"Guys, good morning," She said and they looked at her then smiled.

"Good morning," They replied.

"Did you sleep well, Nessa?" Sophia asked and she nodded before getting up and looking at the wall.

"Did you find anything?" She mumbled and Ian smiled at her before sighing.

"Nope," He responded.

"Got nothing at all? Not even a clue?" She asked.

"Not a clue, we've been searching for the past half hour and still haven't found anything useful to us," Yonja responded, and Nessa yawned before stretching off and looking at Isamu and Terou.

"I will get breakfast, then help you guys," She said as she took her things out of her bag and they smiled at her.

"It's okay, you can take your time, there is no rush," Ian replied and she glanced at him and he grinned.

"If you don't want to get a fly kick, be quiet," Yonja said and they laughed, then Nessa sighed and gave Isamu and Terou things to eat.

"The wall wouldn't have opened up like that and led us here for no reason, there must be an opening somewhere around here, hidden within the walls or so, we just have to find it, but where can it be, a secret spot could be hidden anywhere in this area, damn it," Nessa mumbled as Isamu looked around.

"I will just have to take my time and look, though we cannot afford to lose much time, I know the roar I heard earlier was not a normal one and we have not come across what made it as yet," She said before continuing to eat her food.
