Ascension of the Monster Queen

That night, Nessa slept alongside Akio and the Orc kept watch but then later on, after a while of resting, Akio woke up and looked at the Orc who smiled at him.

"You can sleep now if you want; I'll keep watch," Akio said, and the Orc sighed.

"I will sleep in a few, to be honest, I am not really tired, tell me, Akio, I trust your leader, she is a great person, but how much do you guys trust her?" She asked and Akio looked at Nessa then sighed.

"We all trust her with our lives, we won't think a second if she asks us to fight alongside her putting our lives on the line, we won't mind, we will always heed her," He responded and the Orc sighed in relief.

"Good, that's really good to hear, I think anyone with a good heart will be able to do that for someone like her, trusting someone blindly is difficult, but obviously she's worth it," She said, and Akio nodded.

"They all want her to be careful because they all want her to return, that will be no home with her around, we know this is a dangerous world and she is..." He reacted.

"I know she is still very young, but brilliant," The Oc said and Akio agreed as the woman fell asleep with her child who slept beside her, hugging his mother and Akio kept watch after that.

The next morning, when they woke up, Nessa stretched off and Akio looked at her before she smiled and passed her hand on his head.

"Good morning, guys," She said.

"Good morning," They replied.

"Glad to see you slept well, lady Nessa," The Orc said as the child ran up to her and hugged her tightly, and she smiled before patting his back and standing up.

"Sorry, he has taken a liking to you," She added.

"That's fine, he's a sweet child; let's eat and then leave, or do you want to eat on the way?" Nessa inquired, and they exchanged glances.

"There's nothing wrong with eating while doing so, but the sooner we get there, the better." Nessa nodded after the woman replied.

"You are correct, we will eat while traveling; the last thing we want right now is to arrive and..." Nessa replied, and the woman smiled.

"It's okay, my lady, I know," She replied as Nessa walked off and they followed her.

"Here," Nessa said as she passed them food and drink, which they took.

While eating, the child stretched and peeked at Akio, who looked at him and smiled at Nessa.

"Akio, he seems to like you very much as well," She said.

"Yes, my lady, I can see that quite clearly," He replied, and she chuckled before picking up the child and placing him on Akio's back.

"He's adorable," Nessa said.

"Yes, cute," Replied Akio, and Orc laughed.

"I never expected to have such a free child, he just does what he wants," She said, and Nessa smiled.

"That's nice though, you have to let them grow," She replied and the Orc nodded.

"You are right, but I hope these kids don't have to grow up with the world like this, I want them to have a good life, grow up freely without constantly fearing for their lives, I want all of us to just be free and I think the place you are building will be able to give us that, let him grow up in an environment suitable for him, where he can roam free and not worry," She said and Nessa smiled then looked at the child.

'I wish the same for them, I wish for children not to grow up without their parents, but that's something none of us can control,' Nessa sighed.

"I understand, it's only natural to think that way with the world we live in," Nessa replied and the Orc nodded.

After several hours, they finally made it beyond the mountain ranges, where they saw the Orc village ahead of them, and Nessa smiled.

"Well, let's go," The woman said as she walked away and Nessa followed her quietly.

The Orcs looked at them as they entered the village, and Nessa looked around at the space they were living in and didn't like it one bit and felt sorry for them.

"You are back," A male Orc said as he approached the woman then they all turned, looking at Nessa sternly and she sighed.

"Don't stare at me like that," She said.

"Where is my husband?" The woman asked.

"I'm right here," A large built Orc said as he approached them, his eyes narrowing as he looked at Nessa, and Akio stood in front of her as his eyes widened and he sighed.

"Who exactly is she?" Her husband inquired.

"She is the one who helped me when I wasn't looking so good, she is a good person, I even went to her home and was warmly welcomed by the people after, they thought we were the evil Orcs, but that misunderstanding, I cleared up and she made a proposal which I accepted and would like to talk to you about," She replied, and her husband sighed.

"Fine, come in," He said as he walked away and Nessa followed him, then his wife patted her on the shoulder and she smiled as they sat down on the soft grass outside his home and they all looked at Nessa and his wife.

"What is this about helping and making a proposal?" He inquired.

"Have you heard of the growing monster nation?" The woman asked.

"I have, but why?" He inquired.

"She is their leader and she has made an offer," She replied and his eyes widened as he stared at Nessa.

"This young girl?" He asked and she along with his son nodded and he sighed.

"I apologize and thank you for assisting my wife, but right now we have bigger concerns; there is a fight that we must win," He said as he turned away from Nessa, who smiled at him, knowing he was only concerned with his people's best interests, which is what a good leader should always think about.
