BXBX NOVEL Chapter 189: To stay awake
"Good night, sweet dreams, lady Nessa," Teruo replied and she patted him on the head then Isamu.
"Good night, guys," She said.
"Good night," Isamu replied as she covered with the blanket and a while after, she fell asleep along with them since she was very tired.
The next morning, when Nessa woke up, she stretched off and saw Teruo was still sleeping by her foot side and she stretched off then he opened his eyes and looked at her.
"Good morning, lady Nessa," He said.
"Good morning guys," She replied as Isamu approached her and she passed her hand on their heads before getting out of bed after which she sighed and wiped her eyes.
"Uh... Lady Nessa, are you okay?" Teruo asked and she looked back at him.
"Yeah, I am fine, why wouldn\'t I be?" She asked.
"You still look sleepy," He responded.
"Well, there is still time before you have to meet the others at the top of the hill to go to the dungeon, you can get some more sleep if you want, you do seem quite sleepy, well you are a person who doesn\'t get the amount of sleep your body actually requires, what are you going to do?" He asked, tapping the bed with his tail, and she chuckled.
"You guys look so cute but, don\'t worry, I will be fine, if I go back to sleep now, I won\'t be able to wake up back this easily, it will become a problem and we will be late, which won\'t be good for us in any way, we all have to be there on time, as long as I eat and drink and keep myself occupied, I will be just fine," She responded and they exhaled deeply before looking at each other.
"Are you two still worrying?" She asked and both of them nodded and she smiled then patted them on the head.
"Well, stop worrying, you guys will be there with me all the time, so I shouldn\'t worry right?" She asked as they exchanged glances.
"We will look out for you so, yeah, I guess you will be fine," Isamu responded and she sighed.
"Good, now I am going to freshen up then we will have breakfast compliments of the inn and we will leave after, got it?" She asked.
"Yes," They responded then she grabbed her clothes and went to freshen up while they waited on her.
When she finished, Nessa got dressed then exited the bath, grabbed her bag and left to go to the dining room within the inn where she sat down and gave them their food and ate hers as well.
When Nessa, Terou, and Isamu had finished their meals, they left the inn and headed to the top of the hill that overlooked the city. Only on m v|le|mp|yr
While they were on their way, Nessa looked around at the beautiful flowers and smiled as Terou jumped up in them and sniffed them, and Isamu chuckled.
"He\'s beginning to open up," Isamu said.
"Yeah, I see that and it\'s a good thing, soon enough he will tell us where he is from and if he wants we can take him back home, to be honest, I hope he stays, he will be a nice addition to our group," She replied.
"Yes, you are right, he will be," He said and she nodded as Teruo glanced at them.
"Yes, you are right, he will be," He said and she nodded as Teruo glanced at them.
Upon arriving at their destination, it was almost midday, they saw that Yonja along with his teammates and another team was there.
"Good day, guys," She said.
"Good day," They replied as Sophia approached Nessa with a bright smile on her face. Nessa looked at her, then realized the girl was looking at Teruo in that manner, and the wolf hid behind Nessa and began growling as the other team looked at them.
"Would you like to touch him?" Nessa inquired, and Sophia nodded, before Yonja sighed and Nessa crouched down and look at Teruo.
"Let her touch you, she means no harm, she just loves cute things and you fit in that category, please," Nessa said then Teruo lowered his head and Sophia gently patted his head then he looked at her and she smiled.
"Thank you, you care too cute to resist," Sophia said and he looked at Nessa then she patted him and stood back up.
"So when will we be leaving?" Nessa asked.
"We are waiting for two more people then we will leave, I am glad you are on time though," Yonja responded and Nessa smiled.
"Yeah, well, I would have been late if I went back to sleep, that\'s for sure," She said and he chuckled.
"Tired?" Yonja asked.
"I don\'t think I\'m tired, but I want to sleep," She responded and he looked at her.
"Are you going to be able to stay awake? We don\'t know when we will be back out here, so we\'ll camp inside the dungeon, but will you make it?" Yonja inquired, and Nessa looked at Isamu and Teruo then at the palm of her hand before smiling.
"Yeah, I\'ll make it, no matter what; after all, I don\'t have much time to waste and don\'t intend to stay in that place longer than I need to be," She replied and they smiled at her.
"Well, that\'s good to know, in this place we are going to have to stick together and rely on each other, it\'s dangerous, for most of us anyway," He said and Nessa exhaled deeply before taking out a bottle of water and drinking it.
"Well, one thing is for sure, you have got your priorities right, we are going to have to rely on each other, mostly our abilities and stick together, Yonja," A guy said as he approached them alongside a girl and Yonja scoffed at him.
