Chapter 95: To the village
"What is this?" Nessa asked while looking at the bag and Liya approached her.
"This is a snack bag, in case you guys get hungry, there is enough for all of you," Liya responded and Nessa patted her on the head and she smiled brightly.
"Thank you, Liya," She said.
"You are welcome, my lady," She replied as Aion approached her and tapped her on her hand.
"Lady Nessa," He said and she looked at him.
"What's the matter, Aion?" She asked.
"Be careful and make sure to always return," He responded with a smile and she patted him on the head.
"I won't be long, will be back here before a week, don't worry," She said and he looked at her.
"All right, we will wait for your return," He replied.
"Lady Nessa, I need to check something with you; could you please give me a minute?" Youthim asked as he approached her, she nodded and went to him, where he showed her the sketches they had made of the other things that were being built.
"Is everything the way you want it?" Are the spacing and designs suitable for you?" Youthim inquired, and Nessa smiled then nodded and he sighed in relief.
"Good," he said, "at least we're on time and on track."
"Don't worry about time, you guys don't have to rush, when I get back, I will help create the plan to expand the town," She replied.
"Okay, we will be waiting, our town looks a bit more modern than other towns, I am happy," He said and she chuckled.
"I am glad you guys are satisfied as well," She replied and he bowed his head.
"Lady Nessa, you guys be careful," Dalia warned.
"We will be," Nessa replied as she waved at them and they waved back, then she left with the Orc and her child, as well as Akio, heading to their village, which was far past Nessa's town, behind the mountain ranges.
After a while of walking, the baby Orc began crying, and no matter how hard his mother tried, he would not stop. Nessa then Nessa smiled while looking at Akio.
"May I have him for a moment?" Nessa inquired.
"Sure," She replied before handing Nessa her child, whom Nessa smiled at, and the child looked at her before she grinned and placed him on Akio's back because he was neither big nor small, but rather looked like a normal wolf, perfect for carrying the child on his back.
After placing the child on his back, he stopped crying and laid back on Akio's back and the wolf glanced at Nessa. see NovelFire,em,pyr for more
"He stopped crying; look after him in the meantime, you are soft," She said, and he sighed.
"Fine," He replied and the Orc chuckled.
"Thank you both," She said.
"No problem," They replied and the woman looked up at the trees as they walked the narrow path through the forest.
"Even some of the trees in this forest are beautiful; if they were going to use the forest for good, sure, we can share, but..." She mumbled, and Nessa sighed as she looked at her.
"I understand, they only want it for their own selfish needs, and to be honest, I'm doing this on my own selfish whim as well," Nessa said, and the Orc chuckled.
"Your actions will benefit the majority of us, whether selfish or not, we all get a better life, one similar to humans, we couldn't ask for more because we couldn't even dream of having a life as nice, that more than enough for us," She replied, and Nessa smiled.
"You are all kind-hearted, so far, I have to live up to your expectations," Nessa said and the woman smiled then patted Nessa on her shoulders.
"I believe they will stand by your side no matter what happens; we don't have much faith in people, but you are a different story; you changed them," She replied, and Nessa smiled before turning to look at Akio, who nodded as the child slept on his back.
"Would you like something to eat?" Nessa inquired as she removed the bag from her back, opened it, and handed them food.
"Do you think we will get there by tomorrow afternoon?" Nessa asked.
"I believe we will arrive sooner; once he agrees, we will begin moving immediately; staying there will only lead to more trouble and death," She responded, and Nessa sighed and lowered her head, knowing that many creatures in the land will face a lot of trouble if they don't want their homes taken away from them.
"Do you think some of the other creatures will want to join you, Lady Nessa?" She inquired.
"To be honest, I don't really know," she replied, "but for now, I can say that this is worth a shot; if they refuse and continue to refuse to listen, it will be their fault."
"You are a good person, and we will never forget it; even if they don't agree, you don't blame yourself; at the very least, you tried to help them," Nessa smiled as the Orc spoke.
They walked for hours and took breaks in between, but when night fell, they stopped between two large trees in the forest and sat down, then Nessa stretched off and Akio sat beside her, along with the Orc and the child.
"Time flew by really fast today," The Orc said, and Nessa nodded as she looked up at the night sky.
"Yeah, it sure did," She yawned, and the woman smiled as she looked at her.
"Lady Nessa, if you're tired, you can sleep, it's getting late, there is no need to stay up," The Orc said, and Nessa glanced at her.
[Master the village is not far away from where you are currently at, you will get there within no time, there is nothing hostile around you guys right now, and you need to rest.]
"I see, well, I'll get some sleep, don't wander off," Nessa said, and the Orc nodded. Nessa fell asleep but began falling aside, and the Orc was about to move when Akio laid where her head had fallen and she smiled as she held onto him.
