Chapter 23: A group
Neesa was picking an apple wh she heard a loud crash within the forest and noticed the trees shaking not far from her. She rushed towards it only to see four people being chased by a giant scorpion and scoffed.
"You've got to be kidding me," She said as a guy with fire jumped into the air and blew fire at the scorpion, but it didn't work and he was knocked into one of the trees where Nessa was standing, and she sighed as he looked at her.
"Yo," He said.
"It's just an overgrown scorpion that shouldn't be here, your fire isn't hot ough," She explained as she approached the scorpion.
"You are big," She said, and the red whip appeared in her hand and she flung it behind the scorpion which charged at her, wrapping a the scorpion's limbs and ripping them apart, leaving the others staring at the whip as it vanished, and a sword appeared in her hand, which she stabbed the scorpion with, killing it.
"Y- You killed it, that one huge scorpion," The young man said and she looked at him along with the other guy and two girls with him.
"There are monsters like these in this forest," She replied.
"Akio," She called out, and as the wolf appeared in front of her, the young man and his frids looked at each other nervously as the wolf growled at them.
"Akio, stop scaring them, call Aion and Zietaz for me, I would like them to take a look at this," She said th he looked at the scorpion.
"It's ormous, I'll be right back," He replied before disappearing, and she looked at the humans.
"Humans don't really come here, why brings you here?" She asked with a smile on her face.
"How come that direwolf listed to you?" The young man inquired.
"I am his master," She responded, and he left staring at her. Akio howled, and they turned a to see him approaching with three goblins.
"Goblins? Goblins that have evolved?" The young man inquired, and the girl beside him fainted wh the goblins looked at them and the young man grabbed her while Nessa smiled nervously.
'I hope they don't cause me any trouble, it's only be a few months since I came here, but things are really progressing,' Nessa thought as she took them to the village where they had left staring at the houses and the goblins, as well as the foxes and wolves working together with the dwarfs.
"What on earth is going on here?" The young man questioned.
"We have guests, my lady?" Isamu asked as he approached them while looking at the humans and started growling.
"It's fine, Isamu; they are my guests." He sighed and looked at her after she responded.
"Be careful," He warned before walking away.
'Getting these creatures to trust humans won't be easy, but they should know that not all humans are bad, just as not all monsters are bad,' she thought as she led them to the tt where the dwarfs had giv her because they had to break down the houses.
"Place her on the bed," Nessa said, and the young man gtly lifted the girl off of Akio and placed her on the bed, before Nessa patted Akio on the head and he wagged his tail.
"My lady," Tehitos said as he walked into the tt, and she smiled before Akio left.
"Could you please get them something to eat and drink?" She inquired.
"T- That's a big goblin..." One of the girls muttered and Tehtios smiled.
"You don't have to say please; I'll get it," He responded and th left, and Nessa turned to face the humans and the unconscious girl woke up, wiping her eyes.
"Are you okay?" Nessa inquired, and the young lady smiled.
"I am fine, thank you," She responded.
"Would you mind telling me why you're out here?" She inquired as she sat in a chair, and the young lady sighed.
"We were hired to come and investigate why monsters were congregating out here, it was reported, someone passed by and saw, we got paid a lot because most didn't want to come," The same young man explained, and Nessa scoffed.
"This new place that is being built here belongs to me and the individuals who live here; I am their leader, and they have all pledged their loyalty to me," They looked at her in surprise wh she said that.
"What she's saying is true," Tehitos said as he brought them food and drink.
"Why? This has never happed before, and you never know what might happ if word gets out, you might get into serious trouble, you do know that right?" The same young man asked.
"What are your names?" She asked.
"My name is Irza," He replied.
He was tall and slim, with black hair, fair skin, and blue eyes.
"My name is Lisa," The girl who passed out said. She was slim and tall, with short black hair and black eyes with tanned skin.
"My name is Jonathan," The blonde guy said, he was of average height, muscular, and fair, with brown eyes.
"My name is Rina," The last member said , she was short, fair, blonde, with gray eyes and a slim body.
"Nice to meet you all, I am Nessa Styrmir, I am the leader of the monsters gathered her and as for your question, I don't care what trouble comes in the future, I will face all of them, we are not evil, we just wish to live in peace and together and I will not let anyone disturb that peace, come what may, I will build a nation where everyone can coexist," She said as they ate the food Tehitos brought them th smiled.
"You are quite the stubborn one, you are human?" Irza asked.
"Mostly," She replied, and he sighed.
"I can tell you are not evil; if you were, you wouldn't have be so gerous and helpful to us, thank you," He said, and she smiled.
"You are welcome," She replied and he grinned.
