Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 208: Surrounding flames

"Don't blame me for what happens next; I've had enough; I've tolerated you for a while now and you kept on hurting them," She said as she took a deep breath, fire began to form around her body, protecting her from the dark aura, which attempted to touch her but was unable to do so due to the strength of her fire.

"Her fire ability is really strong, stronger than most, most cannot do that," Ian said and Nessa exhaled deeply then looked at the beast and he released a circle of spinning spikes and as they rushed towards her she smirked and lifted her hand.

Before the spikes could touch her, she released a wave of flames that made the spikes crumble and fire balls began shooting from the magical circles, surrounding the beast, releasing its heat around its body and she disappeared then reappeared beside him and a flame arrowed formed in her hand and Ian smiled.

"I am sorry, but you killed too many and you cannot live any longer, I don't kill like that, I never will but you have to go, I am sorry," Nessa said as the beast was about to attack her and she released the arrow which pierced through its thick skin, sending it flying into a wall and its body turned to ashes as it disappeared and she sighed.

Her fire, then disappeared as well as the dark aura and she went back to normal as Cortan removed his barrier and Nessa was about to fall, but Yonja grabbed onto her and she held onto her head then looked at Isamu before raising up and approaching him.

"I am sorry I took so long, Isamu," She said and he sighed as she placed her hand on his injuries and her hand began glowing blue and he began healing while the others looked at each other.

"She can heal," Yonja mumbled.

"You can heal?" Niva asked and Nessa glanced at her before smiling and once Isamu was fully healed, he got up and bowed his head to her and she knew he was thanking her and she patted him on the head.

"You are welcome," She said as she braced her head against his.

Nessa was getting tired and dizzy from not eating and fighting for a while, and Isamu grabbed her bag from the ground with his tail and handed it to her, but she fell asleep at the same time, and the others smiled, then looked at their way out, and Ian lifted Nessa up and placed her on Isamu's back, and Terou held onto her bag, and they took the path they found to get out of the dungeon.

"Nessa I didn't know you could use such advanced fire techniques," Yonja said and she looked at him.

"Yeah, I can but when you use it while you are tired, it's not good; it will drain your energy, similar to what happened to me last night," She replied and he sighed.

"Well, that was cool and you saved us so thank you," He said and she smiled.

"As of now, we are a team, it's my duty, so you are welcome," Nessa replied as she stretched off and they exhaled deeply.

"You know if I am being honest, I am kind of mad at the royals," Niva said and they looked at her.

"Why is that?" Ian asked and she exhaled deeply.

"Yes, we gained a lot of things by coming here, but because of them and their stupidity we got into so much trouble, it seems to me as though they don't care whether we live or die," She responded.

"She is right when that's concerned, they don't care whether we live or die, all they want is to see if we can get them what they want, get the job done," Ian responded.

"Yeah, well, I ran into my fair share of royals but the ones that I met are good people, not all of them are the same, the really good ones can be hard to come by at times and that I know, you guys know what to say to them once we get back, right?" Nessa asked and they looked at each other smiling.

"Yeah, of course we do, don't worry about that," Yonja responded and she smiled before exhaling deeply and bracing back against Isamu.
