Esdeath didn't even hesitation, she agreed on the spot. Ryu got her out of the prison and walked out, as he got past the hallway he saw an interesting scene.
Lubbock was currently holding a bunch of roses and kneeling infront of Najenda
" Please be my Girlfriend! "
Ryu was surprised to see Lubbock this serious, in his impression Lubbock was kind of goofy and a pervert. He looked at Najenda and stared.
Najenda never expected Lubbock would suddenly do such a thing. Even the hard cold commander Najenda felt her face burn from embarrassment, she was also a woman. She also longed for a normal life but the brutality of the world prevented her from such things but now....
Feeling the vision from several directions Najenda felt embarrassed, she punched Lubbock and ran away. Akame and the rest who were hiding and watching Lubbock's confession quickly pulled him out of the rubble.
Akame poked his cheeks and asked " Still alive? "
Lubbock was annoyed " Go away! "
Leone smirked " Shishishi, what a confession Lubbock, Be my girlfriend! "
Lubbock was even more embarrassed and down. Bulat patted his shoulder and said
" Don't be so down, from how the boss reacted it seems you have a chance."
Like a drowning man getting a life line Lubbock asked " Really? You think so? "
Tatsumi chipped in " Well, I think it's possible. Boss seemed shy and punched you out of embarrassment."
Lubbock jumped up " Hell yeah! Wait for me Najenda! "
Esdeath watching this from a distance took out her small book and scribbled some things. Ryu caught a slight glimpse of it and nearly fell down
' Madara is in deep trouble.'
Ryu gave his silent condolences to Madara and left.
With his last member gathered Ryu now has to make preparations for their entry into the immortal realm.
*********
Madara was meditating when Ryu came back with Esdeath. Seeing Madara Esdeath's cheeks turned red, the dominating woman seemed like a meek cat right now.
" About time. Let's go already."
Madara was annoyed, he had to spend his time in this unamusing place for weeks now.
Ryu nodded. He was about to transfer when Esdeath walked towards Madara. Ryu had a faint idea about what she was about to do.
She kneeled down Infront of Madara and made several Ice flowers " Please be my boyfriend! "
" Pffff... "
Ryu uncontrollably let out a laugh. Madara had a vein pop on his head when he saw Esdeath suddenly doing such things. He was even more annoyed seeing Ryu laugh his head off.
" Brat! Don't you dare run!! "
Without even the slightest hesitation Ryu disappeared. Esdeath was looking at this sight and took out her small book again, she scribbled some more things and put it back.
Madara who wouldn't even faze even at the sight of thousands of enemies was finally at a loss for what to do at this moment. He sure as hell can't kick her away as she isn't his enemy.
Esdeath felt her cheeks burn seeing Madara look at her fiercely. She has never met someone as dominating as Madara before, it was because of this she was interested in the opposite sex but now seeing Madara her heart felt different. She felt a different emotion run through her and she knew she loved him.
Madara ignored Esdeath and sat back down, he continued his meditation. Esdeath walked upto him and sat beside him. She started to ask different questions
" What's your world like?
Why are you so strong?
What's your favourite food?.....
Even Madara got irritated ' That damn brat!! He did this on purpose! '
It wasn't until night when Ryu came back. He saw Madara sitting near a bon fire irritated, Esdeath was holding onto her face and staring at him.
Madara jumped at Ryu the moment he came back " Brat!! Did you know this!!?? "
Ryu calmed him down " I swear on my kids I didn't know it until few days ago."
Madara " So you did know!! "
Ryu corrected " Few days ago."
Madara " Let's find another one. She can't come with us! "
Ryu " Why not? Don't be stubborn Madara. You have also seen her talent, she is the best candidate for a Titan."
Madara wanted to argue but Ryu stopped him " Also her Ice abilities can be further purified, she will be a great ally."
Madara was stumped for words. To be honest he acknowledged Esdeath as a warrior. Her talent is something that rarely comes along but the problem is.... she is weird.
Ryu patted his shoulder " Let's go back."
With no other choice Madara gave up, he didn't want to seem like a stubborn fool. Ryu teleported back to Hunter world. He had already bid his goodbye to Tatsumi and the others.
Esdeath was astonished at how they travelled. She looked around curiously, right now they were inside a house.
Ryu had arranged Beans to buy a house in his name. The money came from Netero's account of course. The old man wasn't stingy and left a lot of money for him, even if he didn't Ryu wasn't that worried about wealth.
" You can take any room in that side Esdeath."
She turned around to face Madara " Which one is yours? "
Madara scoffed and left. Esdeath saw his room and picked the one closest to it, Ryu shook his head and left. He had already gathered his team but until all of them reach Immortal realm they can't go into higher realms.
Also Ryu didn't plan to ascend the normal way. He had another plan in mind.
With everything arranged Ryu was planning to head back home and spend some time with his family before departing.
" Navii."
" Yes master."
With a flash he disappeared.
