Ascension of the Monster Queen

"Here," K said, handing Nessa a plate of food, which she gladly accepted.

"Thank you," She replied, and he smiled at her as they all began to eat and chat a the campfire whose bright orange color reflected in their eyes, and she smiled as she looked at it and Akio eating beside her.

Nessa knew not to trust strangers, but because they were assisting her, she was willing to op up a little.

While eating, Nessa noticed Skiro and K looking at her, and she scoffed, knowing they had more questions about her and she sighed.

"What do you want to know?" They looked at her wh she asked.

"I know we'd just be prying, but curiosity can be a dangerous thing at times," K responded, and Nessa chuckled.

"It's fine, I'll tell you this, I'm going to Mascra because of a frid and I have a difficult piece of business to take care of there, don't know if it'll be possible but I have to give it a try," She said as they exchanged glances.

"I see, just a warning, certain people in that kingdom are powerful, so be careful once you get there, and don't let your guard down, you are a young lady, ugh..." K replied and Nessa smiled.

"You are kind, don't worry, I will always be careful," She said and he smiled th they continued eating.

"Skiro, I am not being rude, I just want to ask K's opinion, would you tell me what you think of monsters, K?" Nessa asked and Skiro smiled.

"That's not at all offsive," Skiro said.

"Monsters, huh?

Well, I think that they can be similar to us humans, not all are bad and not all are good, I met a lot who have a good heart, like Skiro, they are evil ones, that is true, but that doesn't make them all evil, I find them mysterious and fun to live alongside, they visit the kingdoms, they have shops, they work in, houses within the kingdoms that they live in, but there is not a single place in which they can live without worrying though," He responded and Nessa smiled.

"What if there was?" Nessa asked, and they both looked at her.

"Where both humans and monsters can live without fear of being mistreated?" Skiro asked.

"Yeah," She responded, smiling, and he sighed.

"That would be awesome," K said with a grin before she looked up at the night sky and exhaled deeply.

Later that night, after Nessa had finished eating and talking with K and Skiro, they gave her and Akio a tt for themselves, so the girl had no trouble sleeping. She was relieved to see that, despite having a beastman working with them, the humans were fine with it and seemed to cherish each other, which made Nessa feel at ease.

Wh Nessa awoke the next morning, she wiped her eyes and saw Akio wagging his tail while standing before her, and she smiled and patted him on the head before leaving the tt, only to find Skiro and the others packing up to leave.

"Good morning, Nessa," Skiro said.

"Good morning," She replied as Akio brought her bag to her and she collected it, th smiled and the m took down her tt to pack it up.

"Miss," K said as he approached her, handing her a cup of coffee, which she accepted, sniffed, and smiled at.

"Thank you," She said.

"You are welcome, ready to start the day off?" He asked.

"I am, and I apologize if I am the cause of your delay," She responded.

"Don't worry, I assure you that you are not, some of them slept in, we'll probably arrive in the capital by night," K said as she sighed and climbed into the carriage with Skrio and Akio while the m, dressed like knights but were not, mounted their horses and they all left.

While they were on their way, Nessa wondered about the others back home, but they were fine; they continued to do the work that had be assigned to them without fail, in the hopes that she would return soon and accomplish what she left to do.

"Nessa," Skiro said, and she smiled at him before he handed her a snack, which she accepted.

"Thank you," She replied.

"You're welcome; hang in there; we will be there soon, right K?" Skiro asked, and K chuckled.

"I am pretty sure she's more patit than you right now, we have be travelling for hours, and it will be night soon, we'll be there, be a little more patit, Skiro," K replied, and Skiro sighed and Nessa chuckled.

"It's fine, I don't mind if it takes longer, you guys have helped me a lot despite the fact that I'm a stranger," Nessa said as K rode beside their carriage and peeked at her.

"You are kinder than I am, miss, and he sure sleeps a lot," K said, looking at Akio as he stretched off.

"You are correct, he does; is he sick?" Skiro asked.

"He is not sick; he's just a little lazy," She responded, and Akio's brow furrowed. He looked at her, and she smiled.

"Oh, I think he is angry," K said and Nessa patted him on the head.

"I'm kidding, you are cute and not lazy, you are quite strong," She said and they laughed.

"You certainly cherish your frid, he appears to be a rare one as well," Skiro said, and Nessa nodded.

"Miss, you are nice to have a," K said as he rode up front, and Nessa sighed.

"It's be nice and lively travelling with you guys, it wasn't lonely," She replied and Skiro patted her on the shoulder.

"Oh, Nessa, if you need somewhere to stay for the night, let us know," Skiro said and she looked at him.

"Are you serious?" She asked as the sun began to set.

"Yes, I am," He responded.

"I will keep that in mind, thank you." She smiled as they crossed a bridge, and the carriage came to a halt more than an hour later.

"We've arrived," K announced, and Nessa smiled as she exited the carriage with Akio and Skiro.
