Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 317 An offer

A while after, when Nessa finished telling the king and queen what they needed to know, they left staring at her, not knowing what else to say and couldn't even think of the right words to use but yet, they understood everything and knew that they could trust her.

The king and queen looked at each other before glancing at Nessa and she smiled at them. Riki and the others smiled, then Nessa stretched off and she looked at the water as it began shimmering.

"Wow, that's the light that has been reflecting in the sky almost every night, which we have been seeing, it's pretty," Nessa said and the king and queen smiled at her.

"Yes, it is pretty, almost everything here is magical and we try out best to maintain it, well, it's all yours as well, now, knowing that the dryads as well have accepted you, I guess we have to right to stop you from doing anything," The king said.

Nessa stood up and stretched off, then a blossom tree as well as a few others began shimmering and she turned around to look at them and then sighed when she saw how beautiful they looked.

"Lady Nessa," Riki said and she looked back at them, then exhaled deeply, allowing the fresh air to blow against her face.

"Tell me, how exactly do you guys live?" Nessa asked.

"The caves and within the big and sturdy rocks there are other small rooms, we also live in the water and one more thing that connects those tall rocks, there aren't more than two hundred of us, we don't need much so, we built a few small things," The king responded before standing up and Nessa glanced at him.

His body glowed blue and the tall rocks began shimmering, the people smiled as their homes were shown and Nessa chuckled when she saw it.

"Well, well, this is creative," Nessa said as she saw there were small and cute houses in a row alongside each of the rocks, some even touched the water and some were on top of the rock, they were all in a straight line and none were taking up much space on the water or the land.

"We accept your offer, lady Nessa," Both of them said and their people bowed their heads to Nessa and she glanced at them and the king and queen were going to go on their knees as well, but she grabbed onto both of their arms and they looked at her.

"Please don't do that, don't forget, you are still the king and queen of your people, don't go on your knees, we are friends now," She said and they smiled at her then the king placed the kid down then shook her hand.

Riki and the others smiled while clapping for them as did the people of the king and queen.

"Congratulations!" They shouted and the king and queen laughed and Nessa chuckled before glancing at Riki and the others.

"It's going to be midnight in a few hours, aren't you guys hungry?" She asked and they showed her the snacks they had which they were eating and her brows furrowed.

Nessa held onto her stomach as it rumbled and Dalia peeked at her and she sighed then they all laughed and she scoffed.

"Catch," Yonja said as he threw her a snack, she caught it then thanked him and he grinned.

"It's getting pretty late for all of us, we still have a lot of things to discuss but can't expect to do it all in one go, can we continue this tomorrow within the city? I can come for you guys, is that okay?" Nessa asked and the king and queen smiled at her.

"Yeah, that would be nice, we need to get to know more about each other, it's what will lead to a good and strong alliance, we also want to see what your city is like, we will see you all tomorrow, please take care, and good night," The king said.

"Good night," Nessa replied then they bowed their heads and Nessa left with the others. Read new adventures at empire

"Thank you..." Both the king and queen said with gentle smiles on their faces when they saw the lights reflected on her before she left.
