Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 128: By nightfall

After Nessa made herself clear to Zilrud and the others not to work, they all did exactly as she told them to and enjoyed the rain while relaxing and eat.

The rain lasted until that afternoon when it finally stopped. The sun shone brightly on the city, and the wind blew a fresh minty breeze that everyone enjoyed because it made them feel even more relaxed.

"Well, now we can all get back to work," Youthim said as Zilrud nodded, then he stretched off and Nessa looked at them and her eyes narrowed.

"What are you guys going to do?" Nessa asked as she got up and approached them and they looked at her smiling.

"Lady Nessa, we are just going back to work," Zilrud responded and Nessa smiled.

"You guys are really stubborn, that's for sure," She said and they smiled.

"Can you guys stop at nightfall and relax after that?" She asked as they stared at her then smiled.

"If that's what you want then sure, that much we can do, we will stop at nightfall and we what we can until then," Youthim responded and Nessa smiled.

"Really?" She asked and they nodded.

"Yes, that much we can do; there's nothing wrong with relaxing a little more than you should," Zilrud responded, and they laughed.

"Good, now I am going to practice with Yanka," She said as she turned around and jumped when she saw Yanka standing behind her and he chuckled.

"Yanka," She said.

"I came to get you, are you ready to get to training?" He asked and Youthim tapped her on her hand and she glanced at him.

"You are just brave, all right, let's get going," He said as he cracked his neck and she smiled and then pointed her sword at him.

"Let's get going, I will give it my best," She replied and he smiled then they began training.

Nessa gave it her all, and it exhausted her, but she persisted, and Yanka worked hard to improve her skills.

They trained for hours until night fell, and she remembered what Youthim and Zilrud had asked her, so they stopped training, and she sighed and stretched before turning to face Yanka.

"You did more than enough for one day, it's okay, let's head back to the others, have dinner and relax, your muscles need rest, come on, let's go," He said, and she smiled, before they both returned to the others, who smiled as they saw them.

"How was your training, lady Nessa?" Dalia asked as they approached them and Nessa sighed.

"It was fine, I kept my part of the deal as well Youthim," Nessa responded and Youthim chuckled.

"Yes, I can see that my lady and I am glad you did, we can now all have dinner together since Liya cooked for all of us, she said it was a good day," Youthim said and Nessa smiled then looked at Liya who nodded.

"It was a good day, quite relaxing for most of us, we didn't do much either, thanks to the rain and lady Nessa's order," Liya replied, and Youthim chuckled. They sat down, and Liya brought them dinner with Dalia's help.

"Liya is it true that you are helping Dalia with her cooking?" Sai asked as he appeared before them then sat down and bowed his head to Nessa who smiled at him.

"Yes, I'm going to teach her to cook; she's very determined; let's see how my progress goes, whether I'll be a successful teacher or not," She responded, and Sai chuckled before Dalia smiled. They sat down, and Nessa stretched before doing a neck roll, and Dalia looked at her.

"Are you okay?" Dalia asked as Nessa took her food and drink then smiled at her.

"I will be fine, I am just a bit tired, that's all, a bit of sleep and I will be good to go again," She responded and Dalia smiled then they all began eating dinner.
