Ascension of the Monster Queen

When Nessa finished eating, she stretched off, then thanked Dalia and Liya for the food and they smiled at her as she got up, then looked at the water and a smirk appeared on her face.

Nessa took a deep breath, closed her eyes as they looked at her and she placed her feet on the water and the marking appeared under her feet and Yanka smiled as Nessa reopened her eyes and looked at the water before tiptoeing over the waves and Yanka smiled as she only focused on what she was doing and not much on the water.

"She is going to get it, her balance now was better than it was before," Yanka said as Nessa's eyes glowed blue and she chuckled as she moved well on the water, but just then she lost focus when the cold wind brushed against her body and Yanka chuckled but she didn't lose balance and Riki smiled.

"I'd say she got it," Riki said, and Nessa smiled as she leapt into the air and landed perfectly on top of the water, and they all laughed before clapping.

"You did it," Dalia said as she approached them, then sneezed and Yanka patted her on the shoulder.

"You might catch a cold tonight, it's a cool night, and you're soaked from head to toe, you did well," Yanka said, and Nessa smiled.

"Thank you, I don't mind if I catch a cold, at least I got what I wanted, but I still have to practice more," She replied and Yanka nodded.

"Well, if you ever need help while training you can always ask me, no need to worry," Yanka said and Nessa sighed in relief.

"Thank you very much, that's good to know," She replied before sneezing and Liya looked at her.

"Go home, have something nice and warm to drink then go to sleep, it's already late," Liya said and Nessa yawned before looking up at the night sky and smiling.

"Is it normal for this type of training to make me feel light, Yanka?" Yanka gave Nessa a sidelong glance.

"No, most people just stress about it so they don't get to feel light, but in your case, you didn't stress about it, so that's why you feel light; you can try floating next," He responded, and they burst out laughing.

"Perhaps I will, sooner or later," Nessa said, "but I think we should turn in now, it's too late and I don't think I'll be able to keep my eyes open any longer."

"Will he be seeing you for training tomorrow again?" Dalia asked and Nessa looked at her before turning to face Yanka who smirked.

"Will you be training tomorrow?" Yanka asked.

"Yes, I still have a lot more to improve on," She responded.

"You are impossible; I will drag you along to train with me occasionally," Riki said, and they all looked at him.

"Your training is harsh at times; she will never agree to train with you," Liya replied.

"Sure," Nessa said and they looked at her, not knowing what to say next.

"Eh? Lady Nessa, are you certain of this? When it comes to training, he isn't all that different from Yanka "Dalia replied, and Nessa chuckled.

"That's fine, I don't mind," Nessa said and Riki patted her on the shoulder.

"Training is going to get a bit more interesting now, this will be fun, I look forward to training with you, lady Nessa," Riki replied and Nessa smiled.

"Likewise, Riki," Nessa said and Riki stretched off.

"Well, I'm going to call it a night, good night to all of you, I'll see you tomorrow, bye," Riki replied before leaving, and the others turned to face Nessa, who smiled at them.

"Good luck in training with that guy, he is monstrous for a reason, good night lady Nessa," Dalia said.

"Good night guys, I will be careful, don't worry," Nessa replied, then left and went to her home.

After arriving, Nessa went to freshen up, then got dressed, made a cup of hot tea, drank it, then got into bed and yawned before closing her eyes, and after a short while, Nessa fell asleep without a hitch because she was exhausted from a long and tiring day of training that was far from over.

When Nessa awoke the next morning, she stretched before getting out of bed and going about her normal morning routine, despite the fact that her body was aching slightly.

After she finished, Nessa made herself breakfast and left her house for the city center, where the others were.

"Good morning, guys," She said and they smiled at her.

"Good morning," They replied as she sat down and Liya approached her with a bright smile.

"Lady Nessa, do you want anything to eat? Had breakfast as yet?" She asked as Nessa stared at her and Riki grabbed her by her arm and pulled her away from Nessa a bit.

"Don't invade others' space, you can ask from afar," Riki said.

"Hmm, you are right, sorry, lady Nessa," Liya added and Nessa smiled.

"It's fine, you don't have to apologize Liya, I had breakfast already, don't worry about that," She replied and Liya smiled.

"That's good to know, are you really alright after yesterday?" Liya asked and Nessa smiled.

"Yes, I'm fine, a little sore, but fine," She responded as Riki patted her on the shoulder and she looked at him.

"When you are ready to practice with me, come and tell me, I will be ready in an instant, my training is usually hard but I can adjust it for you I won't use the same technique as I always use, remember that I can adjust as well, lady Nessa," He said and she chuckled.

"I will be sure to remember that, I will join you in training soon enough but first I have to finish off my basic training with Yanka and there is a lot to do, we can train in between," She replied and he smiled.

"Yes we can train while doing all of that but don't push yourself too much," He said with a smile and she nodded then he drank a glass of juice before sighing.
