Ascension of the Monster Queen

Chapter 32: A familiar ogre among the bunch

After looking a the cave for a while, Ness exhaled deeply.

"Well, there's no need for me to investigate the cave, I sse no life force here, we should go and I'll lock the door, people will only come here with my permission," Nessa said as she exited the cave with the wolf and closed the door, which was now light and felt like a normal door, rather than the way she first discovered it.

"Let's go back, Akio," She suggested.

"All right," He replied, and they both started walking back to town.

While heading back to the town, they heard a crash and the wolves howling.

"I'd like to ignore that, but I can't, I hope we don't run into a bunch I don't like and who would cause me problems," Nessa said as they rushed off towards the sound, where Aion collided with her and she grabbed onto him.

"Are you all right?" She asked wh she saw his arm bleeding and he grinned.

"Yeah, I'm fine," He replied as Zietaz approached, panting, and Nessa looked at him.

"My lady, they seem to have a bit of a misunderstanding," Zietaz said as Nessa looked at the trees that began to shake and felt the g beath their feet vibrate.

"What the hell is going on here?" She asked after seeing Aion's frids hurt and Akio started growling in anger.

"Are you their leader?" A young man asked in a cold tone, and Nessa's eyes wided, staring at him.

"You-" She said as she stood up and Aion looked at her.

[He is an ogre.]

'He is swift,' She thought.

"I warned you," She said before he came to a halt and the ogres gasped as they saw him floating in the air with red threads wrapped a his body.

"I didn't attack anyone," She said as she flung him towards his mates, but the first ogre dodged him and the one she flung regained his balance and landed on his feet.

'They are skilled, I can tell by the way they move, that old man with the sword appears to be a samurai, similar to Dalia, the very first ogre I met wh I came into this world, she was skilled like them, I wonder if they are her family she lost?' Nessa wondered.

"I will kill you," Aion's attacker said as he approached Nessa and the g began to vibrate more and they all turned to look at the trees.

"What other monsters do you have by your side?" The same ogre asked her.

"Shut up," She responded, his brows twitched and he gnashed his teeth.

"Don't talk to me like that; I'm not one of your servants." He yelled, and she began blowing whistles, completely ignoring him and he clched his fists, feeling ev angrier.

"Help!" Someone yelled, and Nessa jumped as she noticed a familiar female ogre running towards them with her right arm bandaged.

"Dalia..." She mumbled wh she noticed a huge crab monster chasing her and they all gasped.

"My lady," Aion called out and the angry young ogre's eyes wided.

'So they know Dalia,' Nessa thought as the young ogre rushed towards Dalia, who stood up, but the giant crab was closing in on her.

"Dalia," The next female ogre said and Nessa sighed.

"Watch out," Nessa said, shoving the young angry ogre with whom she was arguing aside, and Dalia glanced at her as Nessa rushed past her, and Nessa smiled at her, causing Dalia's eyes to wid.
