YANG XIAO LONG POV
She drained another delicious cup of chocolate coffee and rubbed her temple, trying to process all the information Jaune had just given her.
"So… this is a lot to take in."
Dragons, Maidens, Brother gods, Queen of Grimm, Jaune's harem that he still won't tell them about, the Company, immortality for her and Ruby. A different world…
There was so much that he told her in the past few hours, that even with his Dragon form, she wasn't sure what she could and what she should believe.
"I know. That is why I told you about it now." Jaune said "You have two weeks of vacation. Go home and think about it in detail and then come to me with an answer. If you accept it, then good. I could use all the help I could get against Salem. But if not…" he shrugged "We'll have to make do with what we have."
That was good and all but there was one thing she still didn't understand.
"Why us?" she asked. "There are many other girls who are more powerful and more beautiful than us. You could have asked them. Half of them would accept it for the power you'll give them and the other half would accept it for the Immortality and being Young forever."
"All for the cheap price of loving me for eternity." Jaune pointed out.
"Yes. And what a huge burden it is." She said.
Because she knew that even without the Shroud, it wouldn't be hard to fall in love with Jaune.
Or she might be a little biased because of her crush on Jaune. But still.
"So… Ruby as well?" she asked.
The girl had quickly eaten all the Snacks and drinks that Pyrrha brought them and had subsequently gotten a stomach ache and was currently resting in one of their guest rooms.
She has to explain all this to Ruby when they get back. *Sigh*
Jaune shrugged. "I didn't want her if I am to be frank." He noticed her frown and back paddled quickly "I mean. There's nothing wrong with Ruby. Any man or boy would be lucky to have her. But… I see her more as a younger sister than anything else. The only reason I'm even doing this is because of you. And because she is my teammate and giving her an offer is the least of what I can do."
"You gave the offer to Ruby… because of me?" she asked, feeling touched.
"Yes. If you find a way to become immortal and powerful, then wouldn't you share that with your sister?" he asked with a pointed glance and she blushed.
Yeah… he wasn't wrong.
If she became immortal then she would definitely want the same for her little sister. There were no two ways about it. She loved her sister and if she gains something good and could share it with her sister, then she'll do so in a heartbeat. Even if it means…
Being in the harem of a dragon.
That thought still made her feel strange despite everything.
This day had sure turned out to be quite strange.
"And if all of this is still not enough, then I still have something else." Jaune said with a serious expression and she sat up straight on the sofa.
The things that Jaune had offered her so far were already enough for her to take his offer. So if he had something else to give them then it must be something truly impressive.
"I'm listening." She said.
"You remember how I told you about the relics, the maiden powers and such?" he asked and she nodded "Well, there are infinite worlds out there. And I know for a fact that some of those worlds have powers or artifacts that allows you to resurrect a long-dead person."
Her breath hitched and she stared at him.
That…
"I'm in." She spoke before she even realized it. But once she had spoken, she realized that she no longer wanted to take it back. She wanted this. More than anything else in this world.
Because Summer Rose had been the only woman that had ever been a mother to her.
So even if she was not offered power or immortality, she would still choose this if it means that Summer Rose would live once again.
"You sure about this?" Jaune asked "The reason I told you about this is because—"
"I know." She said, interrupting his words "And I know that you want me to think about this for a while before I come up to you with a proper answer but I've made my decision. I. Want. This."
Jaune stared at her for a long moment and she stared right back at him until he finally nodded.
"Very well then. We will wait for Ruby to recover. Once she does, you'll give her the news, and if she wants it, then I'll shroud you."
She nodded.
Then before he could do anything, she walked around the table and pulled him into a kiss.
She broke the kiss and gave Pyrrha a smug smile but Pyrrha simply rolled her eyes and shook her head in a good-natured manner.
—————
"I want this as well." Ruby said once she explained everything to her.
"Are you sure about this Ruby? This is not something that you can take back." She said. "I am only doing this because I'm an impulsive idiot and I've had a crush on Jaune for a while now. But you don't need to do it right now. You can think over it during the holidays and make a decision afterward."
Ruby simply stared at her and shook her head. "No. If we're doing this then we're doing this together."
She sighed as a feeling of warmth filled her heart.
"When did my little sister become so smart." She said and pulled Ruby in a tight hug.
"So… have you girls decided?" Jaune asked from outside the room.
She looked at him and nodded.
"We have. We want to be Shrouded by you Jaune."
