"So I was right, you really were up to something," Sophia replied and Nessa nodded.
"Yes, I actually went a bit after you guys left, I hid in the shadows, though, so no one saw me, but I have some interesting news," She said and they got closer to her, listening to what she had to say, carefully.
"What news? Also, did they even catch a glimpse of you?" Niva asked.
"No, no one saw me, the king sensed someone, but his fiancee said he was on alcohol and there was no one there so she kind of helped me without knowing it, you guys ready to hear everything that they were talking about, word for word?" She asked and they smiled.
"Yeah, we are, go on, speak," Yonja responded and Nessa smiled before taking a deep breath and looking at them.
Nessa began telling them everything she heard, word for word, and when the others heard, they sighed, unsure of what to do next because they didn\'t know what the royals would do next and were concerned about the people within the kingdom and how that would affect them.
Nessa was aware that the royals would act on the same day, but she had no idea what they would do, which worried her about those around her. She exhaled deeply, considering the many ways they could gain the people\'s trust as well as destroy their hopes.
"So they are going to make a move, but we have no idea as to what it may be and they are working under others, the very same ones that finds the monster nation to be in their way? This is not a coincidence; this is being orchestrated by more powerful individuals, huh?" Yonja inquired, and Nessa glanced at him.
"Yes, it is being planned by more powerful people; also, all of the attacks on this city so far have been their doing; it was all planned from the start," Nessa replied as they stared at her, then lowered their heads and she patted Yonja on the shoulder.
"Now that I know they are the ones that knows about those who sent those demons to attack other places, I am going to deal with this," Nessa said and Yonja glanced at her and saw the determination in her eyes and he sighed.
"Nessa, is this getting personal in any way?" He asked and she glanced at him then smiled.
"From the looks of it now, yes, this just got personal for me, I will help the people of this kingdom, but I also want answers," She responded and Yonja smiled.
"Tell me, how did it just get personal for you?" He asked.
"Let\'s just say that one of the homes that the demons tried to attack was mine, a lot died as well, they didn\'t deserve to die," She responded and their eyes widened while staring at them then Yonja patted her on the shoulder and she exhaled deeply before clutching her chest, wondering more about the diamond and how much more she had to do.
"Well, we will be on the lookout for anything out of the ordinary, you don\'t have to worry so much, Nessa," Cortan said and she smiled at him.
"Thanks guys, I was a bot worried while hiding within the shadows, listening last night, but I am glad I was there or I wouldn\'t have known what they are up to, they are sly, cunning, but not invincible," She replied and they smiled at her.
"You are right, they are not invincible, they can be defeated with much effort if they are not all powerful, that is," Niva said and Nessa nodded.
"I am pretty sure that they are not all powerful," Cortan replied.
"No, they are not, or they would have been able to handle this by themselves, which means that they can be defeated, tell me, does the king and queen have any family?" Nessa asked and they looked at each other.
"Not that we know of, the king and queen\'s lives were quite personal, no one knew much about them, but for some reason, rumors were going around about something coming, we don\'t know what but it seemed as though the king knew about something that he was not supposed to know of," Yonja responded and Nessa lowered her head.
[Lady Nessa, one way or the other this is all connected, no matter what, don\'t let them find out that you have the diamond within you, I don\'t think it\'s safe for you, your powers have grown and you have gotten stronger but be careful.]
Nessa then sighed and looked at them, not knowing what to think at the time since there was so much going on and she could only do so much.
"Yonja you are right, maybe that\'s it, he got involved in something we shouldn\'t know about, but the question is what exactly and that\'s what I am going to find out now, I have a feeling even though if we get rid of them, this won\'t be ending anything soon," Nessa said and Yonja smiled and patted her on the shoulder.
"You are right, no one knows what\'s going to happen next, we all just have to hope and keep on protecting," Ian replied and the others agreed.
"Anyways, you call on us if you need us, Nessa, we will always help you, don\'t forget," Sophia said and Nessa smiled at her.
"Don\'t worry, I will call on you guys, I won\'t forget," Nessa replied and Sophia smiled as the receptionist approached them then sat down and placed a few glasses of drinks on the table and they smiled at her, thanked her and took a glass for themselves and drank it after which they heard a loud roar.
