Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 145: In time



"Thank you and take care of yourself as well, I will see you when I get back, Fana," She replied then rushed off with Isamu and Fana smiled before going to the town.

Riki and the others looked at her when she arrived, and she bowed her head.

"I was given permission by lady Nessa to help you guys, she is on her way along with the fox," She said and they smiled at her.

"Your assistance is greatly appreciated," Dalia replied, and Fana smiled as she looked around town, then sighed as her body glowed green and they looked at her.

"What are you going to do?" Liya asked.

"Form a barrier around your town," She responded with a gentle smile as she lifted both of her hands up and green energy began to flow out of them, forming a dome around the entire town.

"That\'s pretty," Riley commented.

"It is indeed pretty," Dalia added.

"Wait a minute, isn\'t she a Dryad?" Riley inquired.

"Yes, she is; she made a deal with Lady Nessa; once this is over, Lady Nessa will become the leader of this entire forest, the owner," Dalia replied as Riley stared at her.

"Is that a good idea?" Riley asked and Dalia glanced at her.

"So, I take it, you have heard people wanting to take this place?" Dalia asked and the girl nodded.

"Yeah, a lot of people want it because of the type of land; it\'s one of the homes of monsters and magic, and it\'s perfect for a lot of things, including agriculture," She responded, and Dalia sighed.

"Beings of all kinds can be selfish; they let their desires get the best of them; none of them are like Lady Nessa," Dalia said.

"I\'m pretty sure no one can be like her; she\'s unlike any other leader I\'ve seen so far," Riley replied and Dalia nodded.

"You are correct, leaders like this are difficult to find; most are motivated by a desire for power; even if she were, she would still be different because of the way she thinks, am I right?" Riki inquired.

"You are right, no other leader can compare to her," Liya replied and Riki smirked as they kept their eyes and ears sharp.

After a while of running, Nessa came to a halt while panting and Isamu glanced at her.

"You can jump on my back if you like, I have one talent similar to Akio, I can adjust my size as well," He said as he got a bit bigger and she smiled then jumped up on his back.

"Hold on tight, I\'ll run faster," He said as she gripped his skin gently, and he dashed off at full speed because of how fast he was going,  Nessa smiled and raised her head, allowing the breeze to caress her skin.

"Riki, we have movement within the forest, they are heading towards the Lizardmen, there are a lot of them, Orcs," Sai said as he appeared in front of them, and Riki smiled as Nessa heard a loud roar and her eyes widened as she looked back.

"We have to hurry and get back, Isamu," She said, and Isamu looked at her before growing in size and roaring, causing the other foxes within the town to hear and they began roaring as they surrounded the town, and Akio chuckled before his eyes began glowing bright blue and he grew in size as everyone looked at him.

"You are enormous," Sai said as Akio stood in the middle of town.

"Yeah, this is a gift," He replied, and Sai patted him on the leg as they began to hear screams and Riki\'s eyes narrowed as he looked in the direction of the Lizardmen by the swamps.

"They are in trouble," The chiefess said as a spear appeared in her hand and Riki sighed.

"We will go, Akio, protect them no matter what," Riki said, and Akio nodded as Riki, the chiefess and her kind, and Dalia left, then Zilrud and his wife, as well as the other Orcs, exited the town and stood outside the barrier, smiling back at the people inside.

"Are you prepared for this?" Vill inquired.

"I am prepared; I will not back down, even if he is my brother," He replied, and Vill smiled as they held huge swords in their hands, made by the dwarves.

"Lady Nessa, we\'re almost there, the Orcs haven\'t arrived yet because I can sense them, are you all right back there?" Isamu inquired.

"I\'m fine, don\'t worry," She replied.

\'Will I be able to make it in time?\' Nessa wondered.

[Don\'t worry, you\'ll make it in time with Isamu\'s current speed; they\'re pretty fast, though I should warn you that I detect another person with strong magical abilities ahead of you.]

"I see, then when we get there, we\'ll see who or what it is," She said.

[We will, and I am here to help if you need it.]

After hearing her system\'s response, Nessa smiled and exhaled deeply.

"Will we arrive in time?" Dalia asked as they were heading to help the Lizardmen and Riki glanced at her before smiling.

"We will arrive in time, they are not far from us, hopefully they have the skills to fight off a bit and at least keep themselves from being killed, if they die, lady Nessa will probably stress over it," Riki responded, and Dalia\'s eyes narrowed.

"Oh? Well, I for one think she\'s had enough of that on her head; any more and she\'ll collapse, maybe or maybe not...

It\'s difficult to predict when she\'s involved, but we should save her from stress and help them, keep them from dying, or who knows what will happen, bloody evil people, I\'ll kill them for causing us so many problems, one after the other, I wonder if they ever get tired of scheming," Dalia said and Riki and the others laughed as she exhaled deeply.
