Ascension of the Monster Queen

Nessa exhaled deeply before placing her hand on the dragon which glanced at her.

The others knew she was excited since these were people, that were hardly ever seen but at the same time, they wondered what would happen next.

The person wearing a crown before her looked at them and the ones that were guarding the couple, who seemed to be their leaders had different types of spears in their hands.

Nessa recognized the people before her eyes to be merfolks except only some had tails while others didn't and those who didn't were fully clothed and they came onto land with weapons in their hands and some with tails transferred into humans and surrounded them.

When they were in their human form, they looked completely normal and Nessa, smiled at them as the couple came out of the water in their human form and their clothes dried off immediately.

"Who are you, people?" The guy with the crown asked.

"Merfolks..." Yonja mumbled and Riki and the others nodded since they were surprised.

"I am Nessa," She responded and his eyes widened when he saw those that were with her and she smiled at him.

"Well, well, this is a surprise, species such as these mixing together," He said and Riki and the other stood beside Nessa with their eyes glowing and the guy looked at them then at Nessa.

When he realized that they were protecting Nessa, he chuckled, then looked at the dragon who was by her side.

"What the hell is this? They are protecting you? Why did you invade our land? And how?" The king asked and Nessa sighed before shaking her head.

She tapped Riki on his shoulder and he looked back at her and she smiled at him.

"See, Riki, you are taller than me, can you please move aside a bit?" She asked and the others wanted to laugh but held back and Riki smiled at her.

"As you wish, lady Nessa," He responded and both the king and the queen glanced at him as he moved aside.

"Lady Nessa? Just what is going on here?" The queen asked.

"If you think that you can come here and do as you please, you are highly mistaken, I will gut you," A muscular guy said as he pointed a spear at Nessa.

Nessa grabbed onto his spear and flames formed around her palms, engulfing the spear and the guy released it immediately.

He looked at the spear on the ground as it turned to ashes and Nessa looked at him.

"I suggest you don't threaten me, you won't like the outcome, we are not here to harm or cause problems for anyone but if you start something, I warn you, you won't like how it ends," Nessa warned.

"You-" The guy said and the queen grabbed onto his arm.

"That's enough," She said and he bowed his head, then stepped back and Nessa exhaled deeply.

"I am sorry if we startled you guys by being here, also, you guys asked too many questions at once just now, ask one by one and I will answer you," Nessa added.

The king and queen exchanged glances before looking around them and at their people who were watching what was happening.

"Fine, I am sorry for his behavior as well, I am the king of these people, my name is Zale and this is my wife, the queen, Seira," The king said and Nessa smiled at them.

"My name is Nessa, their leader and owner of everything within this forest, this land," She replied, the king's eyes widened and the queen left staring at her.

"There has been a change within the land recently, we could sense it, that was you?" The queen asked and Nessa's eyes narrowed as she looked at them.

"I don't understand, are you guys here to take our home?" The queen asked as their people looked at each other.

"Yes, the change is me and no, we are not here to take anything, I was curious, so I broke the barrier, which created an opening to what more was connected to the land, this place," She responded and the king and queen's eyes shivered as they stared at her.

Nessa looked at them as well as their people who were confused and were uttering all sorts of things.

"I sense the presence of different being living in one place within the land and by the forest, I don't know what type though and it's all getting confusing..." The king mumbled and Nessa chuckled.

"Well, I am the leader of them, I built a city," She said and the king gasped before looking at his wife and they lowered their heads.

"I tried breaking it many times over the years that passed by, but it didn't work, many of us tried, how? I don't understand, you are a human aren't you?" He asked.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Yeah, I still am and I was able to do it because the creatures here has accepted me as did the land and those that protect it," Nessa responded. Stay tuned to empire

"And she is the strongest leader we have ever had, to such an extent that it didn't take much for her to break the barrier," Riki said and Nessa glanced at him as Zilrud and the others looked around.

"If you are here to take our home, we will not let you," The guy whose spare she broke said and Nessa sighed as the people pointed their weapons toward them.

'I am not even here to cause any problem, damn it, but I need them to calm down and listen to me, they are just a bit startled and some are scared, if I show them my power they will know if I wanted to harm them or take over, I would have done so already, I want to talk to them peacefully,' She thought.

Isamu appeared beside her and she looked at him and he roared at them and they gasped before moving back while staring at his size.

"It's okay boy, calm down, I will handle this," She said and Isamu looked at her then bowed his head before standing close to her and she looked at the king and queen.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean for all of this, you can see that if I wanted to harm you guys or take over I could have done so or at least try, I just want to talk, I promise, if you listen to me, you will understand everything, your confusion will be cleared," Nessa said as the sun began setting.

The king and queen's eyes widened as the lights of the caves and crystals reflected on Nessa and everyone left staring at her including Riki and the others.
