Chapter 184: To trust
While they were eating, Nessa noticed Isamu looking at the wolf and she sighed.
"What\'s the matter?" She asked and he looked at her.
"Well, he is lost so where do you think he came from?" He asked and her eyes narrowed.
"I don\'t know but I intend to find out, how did he even get lost?" She asked before sipping a bottle of juice and Isamu sighed.
"It is indeed a bit weird so are you really going to go to the dungeon with the group?" He asked.
"Yes, I am, we might find at least a clue in there and if not, we will just collect the money, there is no harm in getting more money, we will build our treasury," She responded and he chuckled.
"There can never be too much money after all," He said and she chuckled then patted him on the head.
"Your are right on point with that, we might face some problems due to what Yonja and his friends say, about this wolf, not sure I am supposed to take it but I don\'t care," She replied.
"What\'s yours is yours, no one can take it, let someone come and try to claim him, that would be that person\'s biggest mistake of his or her life, lady Nessa do you think the ones ruling this kingdom now, involved with the king and queen\'s death?" He asked and she glanced at him.
"To be honest, it\'s best if we don\'t jump to any conclusions; we should just try to figure this out; we\'ll start suspecting the royals once we find anything that leads to them, but strange things are happening here, what did he mean by that? I know this is one of the largest and wealthiest kingdoms, but..." Isamu sighed as she responded while thinking about the king and queen\'s deaths.
"It\'s best to just leave it be for tonight and get your rest lady Nessa, this goes deep, I am pretty sure about that, for now, let\'s focus on the dungeon and taking care of this guy," He said as they looked at the wolf and she smiled.
"Seems like we now have a new meber of the town," She replied.
"Seems like it, well it trusts you so pretty sure that it will listen to you, though we can be hard headed at times so maybe is the right word to use, we will know once it wakes up, he is strong down, seems like fire is his element," He said.
"Yeah, I can tell that it is his element," She replied before stretching off and he looked at her.
"Lady Nessa, you should go get your rest now," He said and she smiled.
"Yeah, I will go now my eyes are starting to close, to be honest, I am feeling very tired," She said as she got up then threw herself on the bed and within less than a minute she fell asleep and Isamu lifted the blanket up then covered her before laying beside the wolf.
"Good night," She mumbled and he chuckled.
"Good night," Lady Nessa he said and a little while after he fell asleep as well.
The next morning, when Nessa woke up, she wiped her eyes and saw that Isamu and the wolfwere already up and she smiled.
"Good morning," She said before getting out of bed and both of them looked at her and the wolf lowered his head as she approached them.
"Good morning, lady Nessa," Isamu replied.
"Did he say anything to you or eat?" She asked.
"He has eaten, but he has not said anything to me; perhaps he will speak to you if you try to talk to him; he is quite angry, just so you know." He responded, and she chuckled, then crouched down and looked the wolf in the eyes, and he began growling as she extended her arm and patted him on the head, and the creature left staring at her with his eyes glowing orange and she smiled at him.
"There, you need to calm down, I am not going to hurt you, I just wanted to help, oh and you are mine now so I am taking you with me unless you want to go home, you still need to talk about that as well, please, I am not going to hurt you, I need you to trust me," She said before moving her hand off of him.
"You know, she has similar friends like you, they are big wolves and can literally cause a storm if they grow powerful enough," Isamu said and Nessa smiled as the wolf looked at her then bowed his head and she sighed in relief.
"Good, I am glad you have made your choice, if I find your home, I will take you there, you get to choose whether you want to stay with me or not," She said.
"I will decide that soon, thank you," The wolf said and Nessa left staring at it and Isamu chuckled then patted her on the hand.
"I can understand it," She replied.
"Yes, an ability it gained from being yours," Isamu added and Nessa smiled.
"Well, that\'s not bad, at least now he can talk to us about why he got lost and where he is from, now, before we get to all of that, I have to get to the guild, we have to collect our money for yesterday, we did help a lot, though, we gained more by getting this little guy, so I will go freshen up then have breakfast on the way there, be right back," She said before getting up and going to freshen up while they waited on her while talking to each other but the wolf was not ready to open up as much yet.
