YM778.TV Chapter 99: Dropped by
"Okay," They replied, then she went to the hill and saw it was Kurson.
"You..." She said and he looked at her before smiling.
"You don\'t look that happy to see me, but that\'s fine, I just came to check in, seems like the population here just keeps growing," He replied as he looked down at the town and smiled.
"Yes, they all wanted a home, I am giving it to them, also if you are here to give money, I am sorry but I will not take it, I am grateful, you know I am, but we have enough money and with the alliances that will be formed, we will start conducting our own businesses, bringing in money our own way," She said and he chuckled before looking at her.
"That\'s a good approach, trading and so on will get you a lot of things, did you manage to get an ally?" He inquired.
"Yeah, a wealthy and good one as well, thanks to you," She replied, and he sighed.
"I\'m not sure about that, I may have sent you there, but you are the one who put in the hard work, you earned it, which means you got it yourself, well done," He said, and she smiled.
"Thank you," She replied to which he sighed.
"So you\'re not going to take any money?" "I have too much for myself; keep it somewhere in case you run into trouble and might need it in the future," He said, and she sighed.
"You really don\'t give up, why are you here? I don\'t believe you will just stop by to check in when there is always danger lurking around, Kurson," She replied.
"You are correct, I am not one to be out and about like this, but I wanted to see how things were going, your name is spreading except, people think it\'s a guy not a girl building the nation because people passing by never saw your face," He said as she stared at him, unsure what to say, and she chuckled.
"Think I am a guy? I guess to people in this world Nessa can belong to both a guy and a girl," She replied and he laughed.
"Exactly, but don\'t you think that\'s beneficial?" He inquired, and she gave him a sidelong glance.
"Yeah, it\'s better if they don\'t know what I look like yet, and I have to say, the fox form I got from my abilities is useful," He nodded after she responded.
"Of course it is, it allows you to see the world in a different light, right?" He asked.
"Exactly, well, everything is going well for us except there is one problem," She responded
"The one with the evil Orc leader and the man in black?" He inquired, and she looked at him.
"Yes, that problem; I am not going to let them have their way; for the time being, I will learn to control and possibly master my powers; I want to see how strong I can become." She replied and he smiled.
"Believe me when I say that you are strong, you can face them head-on as long, you just have to know how to use your powers," He said and she smiled.
"Well, I\'ll get stronger, I\'ll protect them no matter what, this is my home and I\'m not going to let anyone claim it," She replied, and Kurson breathed a sigh of relief.
"That\'s good to know, and you\'re like a little sister to me, so if you need anything, call me, and even if I am not free, I\'ll come to help you," He said, and she smiled.
"It\'s good to know I can count on you; you\'ve been a great help to me; I\'m looking forward to the day when you accept to come and live here, Kurson," She replied and he looked up at the night sky.
"I, too, am looking forward to that day, Nessa, though I doubt it will come any sooner," He exhaled deeply.
"Yeah, thought you might say that Kurson, do you think I will be able to keep this place standing?" She asked as they looked down at the town.
"You have the Orcs on your side as well?" He asked.
"Yeah," She responded.
"You\'ll be able to keep it standing, and I\'m sure they won\'t let it fall either, because you gave them a home, and I\'m sure they\'ll say no matter what, we\'ll protect it," He said, and she smiled.
"I hope that\'s the case," She replied and he patted her on the shoulder.
"I\'m sure they will, but don\'t you need to get back to them, Nessa?" He inquired.
"Yeah, I have to, we\'re having hot pot, there\'s enough for everyone and probably a little extra," She replied, and he looked at her.
"You want me to go down there with you, don\'t you?" He asked and she grinned.
"Nope, I never said anything like that," She responded as his eyes narrowed while looking at her.
"Hey, I am having a bad feeling, what are you up to?" He asked.
"Huh? What are you talking about? I\'m not up to anything; I\'m just telling you, Kurson, there\'s no need to get worked up over nothing." He stared at her.
"Nessa, I think it\'s time I get going," He said and she looked at him then lowered her head.
"Are you sure you\'re not coming to dinner?" He sighed and looked down at the town before returning his gaze to her.
[Master, you can catch him off guard and get him there by using shadow movement.]
"Fine, I understand, also Kurson, if you want to go you can go, I won\'t force you to stay, it would have been nice if you could though, I will see you soon, maybe," She said with a smirk on her face, looking at him as her eyes glowed blue and the shadow beneath him began to expand, and by the time he realized it, he was already sucked in.
