Chapter 155 - #154 Treating injured (2/2)

”Who knows, maybe they will try to force marriage on me once again but I highly doubt that. Previously it was forced on me when I was just 3 years old, I wasn't as powerful as now. My family's influence also became much larger. When you have a big influence and also personal strength to back it up, it is very unlikely that anyone will force anything on you.” Akashi replied.

”...I see and do you have...anyone you are interested in?” Sayo couldn't help but grow curious like any other woman. Akashi had almost everything any woman could dream of from their husband so she couldn't help but be interested in this fact.

”...There is someone but it's a bit complicated...not our relationship but her status.” Akashi suddenly showed a gentle smile and replied to Sayo.

”Oh?! Is it like in those fairy tales where prince fall in love with a farm girl?!” Sayo suddenly asked in great vigor while sitting up, looking straight into Akashi's eyes that were only a few inches away.

”Hm, something like that...Can you lie down? I need to finish it up, also try to relax your muscles” Akashi's smile disappeared and said with a calm expression.

When they were done and Sayo was about to dress up...

”Just to be sure...They didn't inflict any damage on your private parts or perhaps stuffed something inside you through there?” Akashi asked with frowned brows since it was the only location he didn't check.

”N-N-No, thankfully, no” Sayo's grip on her shirt loosened when she heard his words, making her drop her shirt but she quickly replied while stuttering.

After that, he did the same for Ieyasu who was probably shivering even more than Sayo much to Akashi's annoyance.

He let them sleep for a few hours before he woke them right before the dawn. He took them to the location where he is supposed to meet up with Najenda if he ever wants to discuss something with her. He did as Kurome previously described and then they just waited for someone to arrive.

'Should I plant some Wrigglers at them? Maybe not...it's not safe to do that in case the one who arrives here is Leone. If she or anyone else were to discover them, they would definitely connect them with me since they have already seen them once and I was also in that place. Not worth of the risk.' Akashi thought while waiting for someone to arrive.

After a few minutes, the one who came was Leone and Akame.

”*yawn* Why do you have to contact us so early? It's not even morning yet.” Leone grumbled while yawing and scratching back of her head with her claws, as expected, she was in her transformed form.

”I am giving you these 2 to you. I don't care what you do with them as I have already done my job.” Akashi said and turned around to leave them.

”Wait, Akashi!” The one who shouted at him was unexpectedly Akame.

”What is it?” Akashi stopped and turned at her while asking her with a raised eyebrow.

”What is Kurome to you?” Akame unexpectedly asked while gripping her Murasame tightly.

”I see no reason for me to answer that question but just to avoid a meaningless conflict, I will tell you. She is my little sister that can be sometimes clumsy but is also very hardworking. I love her in the same way as you do. Satisfied?” Akashi said with a serious expression.

”Wait, you contacted us just because of that?” Leone asked with a disbelieving expression.

”Yes” Akashi shortly replied with his stoic expression.

*Thud* Leone fell backward on the ground, back first and started muttering how she wants to go back to sleep.

Sayo and Ieyasu already thanked Akashi numerous times but they still thanked him for the last time before he left them.

---Night Raid's hideout---

A few hours after Leone and Akame retrieved Sayo and Ieyasu, in the morning, Tatsumi woke up and expected the boss, Najenda, to give him some job just to be surprised by Sayo and Ieyasu's presence once he entered the main hall.

”GUYS!!!” Tatsumi exclaimed and immediately hugged both of them.

”You both look like nothing ever happened to you...What had happened to you after we rescued you?” Tatsumi asked after he saw that there were almost no bruises on their bodies. Other members of Night Raid smiled when they heard him say ”we rescued you”.

”Akashi helped us...his powers are really strange. I can't really explain how he treated our injuries.” Sayo replied with a forced and apologetic smile.

”It's good that he kept his word, I knew he wouldn't let anything happen to you after giving us his word. Anyway, can you tell me more about the time you spent at his place and perhaps some information you gathered about Akashi?” Najenda asked with a friendly smile.

”Um...” Sayo turned at her but she was unsure if she should say anything.

”My bad, I am Najenda, leader of this organization. I understand that you are reluctant to give away any information about someone who treated you but I can ȧssure you that I simply want it for my personal reasons.” Najenda recalled that she has yet to introduce herself so she introduced herself while explaining herself which made Sayo's cautious expression soften a bit.

'Personal reasons?!' Lubbock's eyes immediately started dangerously glowing when he heard Najenda's words.
