Chapter 253: A stranger
"Yeah, it does, well you should head back to the inn and get ready, the party will start soon and we don\'t want you to miss it, right guys?" Yonja asked and Nessa looked at him.
"He is right, you are one of us too Nessa, go on, we will be heading home as well then we can meet up back here in about an hour just before the party starts?" Sophia asked.
"That\'s fine with me," Yonja responded.
"Same here that\'s good timing," Ian said and Nessa smiled.
"All right, I will meet you guys here at that time, see ya," She replied.
"See ya," They replied then she left with Isamu and Terou and the others smiled before going to their respective homes to start getting ready for the party.
After returning to the inn, Nessa went to her room and placed a few of the things she bought down on the ground and she sighed then sat down on the bed before stretching off and Isamu looked at Nessa.
"Lady Nessa, are you okay?" Isamu asked and she looked at him, then smiled.
"Yeah, I am fine, don\'t worry so much about me, for now, you guys relax a bit, I will go freshen up and get ready for the party, good thing I don\'t have to dress up much," She responded and Isamu nodded, then she patted him on the head before grabbing the clothes that she chose to wear then she went to freshen up.
After a while of waiting, Nessa had finished freshening up and she got dressed then exited the bathroom and both Isamu and Terou looked at her and she smiled at them before putting her shoe on and typing her hair up.
"You look very pretty lady Nessa," Isamu said and Nessa smiled at him, then fixed her top before placing her black jacket on and closing her belt.
"To me, when dressing is concerned, simple is best," Nessa said and Isamu chuckled as they got up.
Nessa wore a long, fine bottom blue jeans, with a fade blue and white strap top and a black jacket followed by a high top black boots and her hair was up in a pony tail.
"Let\'s go," Nessa said as she left the room and Isamu and Terou exited then she locked the door and left the inn, heading to the guild.
While going to the guild, Nessa felt as though someone was watching her and she sighed, ignoring it since she already knew who it was that had people following her.
After a few minutes of walking, they arrived at the guild and she saw the others were already there and she smiled before approaching them.
"Hey guys," She said.
"Hey, you look good, it\'s nice to see you dressing in nice casual clothes," Sophia replied and Nessa chuckled.
"Thank you, Soophia, you guys clean up pretty nice as well," Nessa said.
"Thank you," They replied as Nessa looked at the guild master who approached them then looked at Nessa and smiled.
"You look nice," He said.
"Thanks, you look nice yourself, a little bit loose, like a normal person," Nessa replied and he chuckled.
"Yeah, I don\'t really do the party stuff, but as long as everyone has fun, I am fine with it," He said.
"You should as well, enjoy yourself and relax," Nesa replied and he sighed as a few of the guild members, including the receptionist began tapping their glasses to get everyone\'s attention which they did.
The receptionist gave a speech and a few other members, including Yonja and the others said a few words which pleased everyone and they clapped before cheering and yelling out happy anniversary out loud.
The guild master sighed in relief upon seeing how everyone was happy and he chuckled when the music started playing, then he looked at Nessa and she smiled at him.
"Do you want to dance with me?" He asked as he brought forth her hand and she smiled then took his hand and nodded as the music switched and Nessa looked at everyone as they began dancing with switching around and she sighed.
"Do you still want to dance?" He asked.
"Sure," She responded as she responded as she felt a strong gaze on her and her eyes widened and before she turn around the guild master pulled her to dance and she began dancing with all of them while switching partners.
As they switched partners while dancing, someone grabbed onto Nessa\'s hand and she looked at the person, but couldn\'t see who it was since the person was wearing a hood.
"Who is this?\' Nessa asked as the person gripped her waist tightly and she grabbed onto his hand and he chuckled.
"Relax, I am not going to hurt you, you are mine to claim, after all," He said but his voice was not clear and her eyes narrowed.
"What the hell is going on? "Who the hell are you?" Nessa inquired as he spun her around before drawing her closer to him.
"I am someone whose assistance you may require in the future, don\'t go looking for any clues or so, you won\'t find any, you have a lot of trouble ahead of you, I will like to see how much you grow, let\'s see how far you can go, enjoy your night," He said before patting her on the shoulder and disappearing within the crowd, and she sighed while looking around, trying to find him but found nothing.
"Nessa, are you done dancing?" Niva asked and Nessa sighed then looked at her and nodded.
"Yeah, I am done for now, I will just go get something to drink, then I will rejoin you guys," She responded and Niva smiled at her.
"All right," She said then Nessa went to get something to drink while the others were dancing and talking.
