Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 168: Dropped by



Nessa became hungry while naming the Orcs and clutched her stomach, which Dalia noticed because she was sitting under the tent, not far from where Nessa was, and she smiled before looking at Liya.

Dalia informed Liya that Nessa was hungry, so Liya prepared something for her to eat. When she was done, she and Dalia took it to Nessa, who looked at them and they smiled before handing her the snacks.

"Thank you," Nessa said.

"You are welcome," Liya replied, then Nessa sighed before she began eating while naming them and Dalia smiled then patted her on the shoulder.

"You're really determined, I'm not sure any of us could be like you no matter how hard we tried," Dalia said, and Nessa glanced at her and she smiled.

"Stop trying; you don't have to be like me; what you do have to be is yourself; I don't want anyone to change because of me; I want you to be who you want to be, not who you think you should or need to be; please don't just say that." Nessa replied, and Dalia smiled then sighed as Nessa continued to name the remaining Orcs.

"Nessa," Kurson said as he approached her and she looked at him then smiled.

"What's the matter?" She asked.

"We need to get going now, I would love to stay longer, you know that better than anyone else," He responded and Nessa got up then patted Riley on the head.

"It's okay, I understand that you guys have to get back now, go on, I hope to see you soon enough though," She said and they smiled at her.

"We will visit often, we will at least try to, Nessa," Kurson said and she smiled then looked back at the Orcs and realized that she only had a few more of them to name and she sighed.

"Guys, wait a few more minutes, let me name these few out, then I can say goodbye for now," She replied.

"All right, go ahead and name them, we will wait," Riley said and Nessa smiled then went back to naming the Orcs.

A while after, Nessa finally finished the set she wanted to name and got up then stretched off while exhaling deeply and Kurson chuckled then she looked at him and they smiled,

"You finished, now you can relax a bit more," Riley said and Nessa nodded as she approached them.

Nessa was about to say goodbye to them when they heard horses neighing and when they turned around, she saw it was the king of the dwarf kingdom and she smiled before walking towards the entrance of the town and he got out of his chariot then they smiled and bowed their heads to each other.

"Good afternoon," She said.

"Good afternoon, lady Nessa, I wanted to drop off a few more things that I think could help you guys in the future, after all, you are now developing more, will you accept them?" He asked and she sighed.

"Thank you very much; I humbly accept them. I also made my first batch of milk; will you take it back with you and see how much it sells?" She inquired, and he smiled as his men fetched a few items from the chariot and she looked at them with a gentle smile on her face.

"I will take it back with me, how is naming the Orcs going?" He asked an she exhaled deeply.

"I finished naming the set that I wanted to name, also do you want to discuss more about the road since you are already here?" She asked and he nodded.

"All right, follow me," She said as she walked away, taking him under the tent where he sat and Liya and the others bowed to him and he smiled at them before Liya and Dalia went to get refreshments for them and the king looked around when his eyes landed on Kurson and his eyes narrowed while looking at him, then he sighed and returned his gaze to Nessa.

"Do you want us to begin constructing the road?" He asked.

"We can start yes, but once we do, I will be leaving here for a while, I will tell them everything they need to do, leave instructions and so on to help them so they won't mess up, I have things to take care of and I think I need to do them as soon as possible, because one of them is personally related to me," She responded as the king looked at her.

Understanding what she was saying, the king smiled, stretched, and patted her on the shoulder before she looked at him and sighed.

"I understand, since I am close by, I will keep an eye out for your people, you don't have to worry so much, I will make sure the construction of the road goes well, you can count on me now, I am a man of my word, that much I can assure you, nothing will happen to them," He said and she smiled.

"Thank you very much and I know I can depend on you, they are always careful and listens to reasons, they know what right from wrong, I will introduce you to the one who is in charge before I go," She replied and he smiled.

"Got it, I am actually waiting to see who you will put in charge," He said and she chuckled.

"One who can protect very well and understands more than most how things around here work, can also be a bit of a tyrant when needed," She responded and he laughed as she remembered it was time for Kurson and Riley to leave and she didn't want to keep them for too long.

"Oh, lady Nessa, there is something else that I would like to inform you about, it's quite important since you are going out after this and I wanted you to know about it before you bump into any trouble or so on, things have gotten even more dangerous in some places now and most people are scared of it," He said and she glanced at him, wondering what he wanted to talk about.
