Ascension of the Monster Queen

After seeing that Yonja and the others wanted to hear what he had to say, despite it being that late, he had no choice but to tell them his side of the story as to why no one knows about him and why he stayed hidden after his parent's death.

The guild master was worried about many things that were going to happen, but he knew that they deserved to know the truth after everything they had done to protect his kingdom.

"All right, I will tell you guys why I am here," He said and they smiled at him, eager to hear what he had to say.

"My parents were going to tell everyone about me a few years after I was born since I as not living here at the time, I was living at my mother's home, she wanted me to at least grow up differently then bring me to the kingdom, but when it was time for them to show me to everyone, something happened and my father couldn't," He said.

"We understand your mother's point of view, she wanted you to live a normal live until a certain age, enjoy your childhood, right?" Nessa asked.

"Yes, that's exactly what she wanted for me," He responded.

"But why couldn't they show you when they wanted to? What happened to your father?" Nessa asked.

"He said that they were dealing with something dangerous, the green diamond, it was capable of a lot of things, he couldn't explain much about it to me, but he decided to wait until after my seventeenth birthday to show me to my people, that way he will be able to hand over their duty of protecting it to me until it finds where it truly belongs," He responded.

"We understand that the thing is indeed dangerous; even Nessa is aware of it, so we understand both of your parents' actions; you can go on," Yonja said, as the guild master smiled at them.

"You are all sure great listeners, I will go on, tell you guys everything but can you keep it all a secret until the right time?" He asked and they looked at each other with smiling faces before turning to him.

"You don't have to worry about us spilling the beans to anyone, it's like we said, it is only your secret to tell, not any of ours," Nessa responded and he smiled.

"All right, after I came here, I had nothing to do and I started helping people around, I then suggested the guild being made and my parents decided to make it, now after they did that, due to the way I see things and handle things, they made me the master and so far you can see where we have come," He said.

"Yeah, we see how far you have come so far, this is by far one of the best guild, rules and payment and so on, you have done a great job, people are comfortable here," Yonja replied and he smiled.

"Thanks, Yonja," He said.

"Well, I'll continue, after the guild was created, I spent a great deal of time into making it better, as a result of which it grew and my parents were really proud, and because we all got busy with our own work, my parents didn't push it to tell everyone about me, because I had my own thing to do to occupy my time and they were dealing with a lot of enemies and big problems and so on at the time."

"Two years had passed and I was nineteen, then I started to get involved in the royal business, and in doing so, I got too busy, handling both of them, and people started to suspect me, then one day I was literally targeted, they wanted to kill me, but instead I killed them, and my parents became even more concerned," He explained.

"You made a decision of your own after that, didn't you? To protect your family?" Nessa asked and he looked at her then nodded.

"People believe I was knew more of the diamond, and to protect my family, I kept a close watch on them from afar and decided that I will only reveal my identity when it is my turn to take the throne, and my father and mother agreed with me, we lived in peace for a very long time, I helped handle royal matters as well as my own until now," He responded.

"When you heard the news of their death, you didn't know they were killed until I came here?" Nessa asked and he nodded.

"I didn't know, I wanted to take the throne, but after everything that happened after they died with the attacks and so on, I got busy helping to protect this kingdom, I couldn't watch someone else sit there but..." He responded, and Nessa lowered her head and exhaled deeply.

"You cannot blame yourself, your majesty," Ian said and he looked at him.

"Your majesty?" He asked and they smiled at him, then they got up and bowed before him and his eyes shook while staring at them.

"Yes, your majesty," Nessa responded and he lowered his head then sighed.

"I am not sure..." He said and Nessa smiled.

"Let me ask you this, do you want to save your parent's legacy and avenge them?" Nessa asked and he glanced at her.

"Of course, I do," He responded.

"Then isn't that why you have to take the throne, to finish their unfinished business, the one they wanted to do but couldn't?" Nessa asked and he smiled before sighing.

"Yes, that's right, you are on spot with that one their Nessa, come on stop bowing now, you guys don't need to do all of that, not after all you have done for me, some of us are not that close yet risked a lot to protect this place and I am in debt to all of you, I will repay it someday, whenever you guys need help and know I can be of use, you better contact me," He responded and they smiled before nodding and sitting back and Nessa looked at him, then she remembered the things she collected from the castle.
