Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 177: Bit startled



While Nessa was taking her bath, Isamu slept away and when she finished, she got dressed and came out and saw he was asleep, then smiled and covered him with a blanket before opening the window and looking out at the city which lit up pretty nice in the night.

Nessa exhaled deeply as her eyes widened from a surge of energy within her body, and she gripped her chest and gnashed her teeth.

"What in the world is this?" She inquired.

[Master, it's the same thing acting up; it's as if it's being drawn towards something even though it now belongs to you; you can use it to find the source, but I don't think it's a good idea right now; you'll look suspicious if you go around at night because you're new here.]

"Don't worry, I'm not going now; I'll be cautious; is that what's been bothering you all this time?" When Nessa asked, her system sighed.

[Of course, I will worry from time to time; after all, you are my master; however, I will guide you in any way I can, so stop worrying so much and believe in yourself and your abilities a little more.]

Nessa chuckled before returning to normal, exhaling deeply and stretching off.

"OK, I'm going to bed now, good night," Nessa said.

[Great night.]

Nessa then closed the window, then got into bed and stretched off and a few minutes after, she fell asleep.

The next morning, when she heard the birds chirping, she woke up then stretched off with a yawn and saw Isamu standing by the window and she smiled at him.

"Good morning, lady Nessa," He said.

"Good morning Isamu, did you sleep well?" She asked and he stretched.

"Yes, I slept well, how about you? Did you manage to get a good amount of sleep?" He asked and she smiled before getting out of the bed.

"Yes, I got enough sleep to stay awake all day today, is it a nice morning?" She asked as she approached him and he nodded before she peeked out the window, then smiled as the cool and calm wind brushed against her face.

"It is indeed a very nice morning, well, I am going to freshen up, then we can have breakfast and start doing what we came here to do in the very first place," She said and he nodded then she went to take a bath.

A while after, when Nessa finished taking her bath and doing her normal morning routine, she got dressed then exited the bathroom and Isamu glanced at her and she smiled before taking out their breakfast which they both had and when they finished Isamu looked at her and she sighed.

"I'd like some coffee," She said, and he smiled at her.

"Lady Nessa, there are other drinks you can have today that you might enjoy; let's go down to the lobby and see what they have and see if you like it, how about that?" He inquired.

"All right, let's go," She said before grabbing her purse from the bag, then they left the room and went to the lobby where the same receptionist that gave her the room saw her and approached her.

"Good morning, are you going to have breakfast now?" The girl asked.

"Good morning, I actually want something to drink, maybe a juice, nice and refreshing," She responded and the girl smiled.

"A lot of people ask for that in the morning, so we have orange juice and so on, come on," She said as she walked away, and Nessa and Isamu followed her, smiling as they entered the dining room and saw how full the table was with various foods and drinks.

"Take whatever you want, and enjoy the rest of your day," The girl said.

"Thank you, and have a good day as well," Nessa replied before the girl left and she poured herself a glass of cold orange juice then sat down and drank it.

"You look a little more relaxed now and I take it that you enjoyed that, did the cold work?" Isamu asked, and Nessa exhaled deeply after finishing her juice, then smiled at him.

"Yes, the cold was effective; it felt good going down." She responded, and he chuckled before she lifted him up in her arm and patted him on the head. They left the inn, and Nessa looked up at the sky, smiling at the clouds, which were the same when she first arrived and looked beautiful.

"Lady Nessa, where shall we go first?" Isamu asked.

"I'm not sure where we should go, let's look around, maybe I'll buy a few things to take back home, maybe we can even get some ice cream as well, how does that sound?" She inquired.

"Yummy is the only word that comes to mind," He responded and she chuckled as they walked through the street, looking at the different types of stores.

"Armory?" Nessa mumbled while Isamu looked at her as she read the sign on one of the stores and decided to check it out. When she entered, her eyes widened as she stared at a tall, well-built man standing before her, and she smiled at him.

"H- Hello," She, and Isamu suppressed his laughter.

"Oh? Are you afraid? Don't be, I know I'm intimidating, but I'm not trying to be, this is my store, I sell armors, and so on," He said, and Nessa sighed in relief.

"Thank goodness, I thought you were a killer for a second," She replied, and he heard her and burst out laughing as she stared at him, then he sighed and smiled at her.

"I am sorry kid, I really wish I can help it, but it's always like this, take a look around and see if you want anything, I can help if you like, I will be right by the counter, come to me if you need anything, got it?" He asked and Nessa smiled.

"Got it and sorry for earlier, I was just startled I guess," She responded and eh chuckled.

"It's okay, you don't have to apologize, it's understandable," He said before leaving and she began looking around his shop.
