Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 124: On water



Nessa finished her breakfast and drank her tea before stretching off and smiling at her people as the Lizardmen settled in.

"Yanka, are you ready to go train?" Nessa asked as she approached him and he glanced at her then smiled and stood up.

"Are you ready? Don't you have other things to do as well?" He asked and she sighed.

"Yes, I am ready and the others things are being taken care of," She responded and he smiled.

"All right, let's go, it's time to beat your sword skills into proper shape," He said and she smiled nervously as she followed him to the river.

Upon arriving at the river, Nessa looked at the water and smiled before placing her hand into it and Yanka glanced at her then smiled and pushed her in, she screamed before raising up in the water and looking at him.

"Why did you do that?" She asked as she was about to get out of the water but he stood before her and she looked at him.

"What are you up to?" She asked.

"Try walking on water if you can," He responded and her eyes widened.

'Can I do that?' Nessa wondered.

[Yes, you can do so by balancing your energy within your body, allowing it to flow smoothly, and making your body lighter; you can also use water magic, but its effects are limited.]

"I see," Nessa mumbled as her eyes glowed blue and she got out of the water as Yanka looked at her and she looked at the water.

Nessa then raised her right arm and her eyes glowed blue as a magical circle appeared beneath her feet and she stepped onto the water, and Yanka smiled and she chuckled as the exact marking continued to appear on the water with each step she took.

"You can use water magic, I had no idea you were connected to that as well, you won't last long, to keep up the magical effect you will need balance..." He said as she fell into the water, chuckling as she emerged, soaked from head to toe.

"Are you okay?" He asked and she sighed.

"Yes, I am fine, thank you, will you teach me proper balance?" She asked.

"Yes, now that I see your abilities, I know you can do it; you have a lot of potential," He responded and she grinned.

"That's good to hear from you; I've heard you only praise when you truly believe it; you don't sugarcoat things; you're honest; I'm glad to have you as my master." He smiled after hearing what she said.

"You are a quick learner; let's see how much you can learn; I have a feeling this won't take you long," He replied as he approached her.

"Stand straight, close your eyes, listen to your surroundings, and relax your body; don't try to control anything." She inhaled and exhaled deeply before closing her eyes and doing as he instructed.

Nessa felt more relaxed than she had ever felt before, and a smile appeared on her face as her body began to glow bright red, and Yanka gasped while staring at her and how powerful her aura was.

'What is this power exactly?' He was puzzled as her body returned to normal and she opened her glowing red eyes, and he smiled at her.

"Try walking on the water; it doesn't matter if you fail; you'll keep trying until you succeed," He said.

Nessa then stepped onto the water and she smiled as she balanced herself, but then fell and he chuckled.

"I failed," She said as she got out.

"You did well, besides you don't look like the type who will give up so, keep practicing, I'll do this alone with you today, by the end of the day I'll make sure you get it or you're not leaving here," He replied as she stared at him.

"Huh? Are you serious? Do you mean I won't get to go home until then?" She asked as a smirk appeared on his face and she smiled nervously as he nodded.

"You're dangerous," She muttered, and he laughed as he looked at her.

"Keep trying," He said, and she did as he told her to.

While practicing, Nessa became tired from doing too many things, but she didn't give up; she was determined to finish what she started by the end of the day.

"How is she doing?" Riki asked as he approached Yanka who looked at him and smiled.

"She is a tough young lady, she is doing well, she is a quick learner, she can walk on water, she can use water magic, right now she is trying to balance herself to do it," Yanka responded, and Riki smiled.

"Well, I guess that's to be expected of her, she never gives up, that much I know even though I haven't been here that long, she is strange," He said, and Yanka smiled.

"You are right, she is strange, but I believe that strangeness will be the one to conquer those who believe they are all powerful and cannot be stopped," Yanka replied, and Riki glanced at him before smiling.

"Looking at you now, I am think that you're starting to like it here, aren't you?" Riki asked.

"I won't answer that, young master, where we stay is your choice, it's just that it's different here, I guess comfortable is the right word to use in this situation," He responded, and Riki smiled before looking at Nessa, who had fallen into the water again, and Yanka chuckled.

"She is not going to give up until she gets this today, is she?" He asked and Yanka sighed.

"No, she is not," Yanka responded.

"Well, keep an eye on her, she seems tired as well, she can't push herself that much, it's not good for a young girl, it's almost night, Dalia will be brining you guys dinner to eat, Dalia said she needs food to eat and she is confident that lady Nessa will be able to finish what she started by the end of the day," Riki said, and Yanka exhaled deeply before turning to look at Nessa, who stretched off and he smiled.
