However, all of that was acceptable. What truly stunned Najenda and the others was that the restaurant was right here? Did "right here" refer to the mansion? Or... this room?

But thinking about it carefully, it's impossible. Esdeath said that she hadn't seen her lover for a long time, which means... he's definitely not in the capital. Otherwise, it would be too easy for Esdeath to see him. For a moment, everyone was stunned.

Esdeath said softly, "You heard me right, it's exactly what you're thinking, right here in this room, the restaurant is right here in this room, behind any door."

Mine couldn't help but whisper, "Any door? Does that mean the wardrobe too?"

"Yes."

The Mine people were dumbfounded. What did this mean? Najenda frowned and said, "Esdeath, what exactly do you mean? You can explain yourself more clearly."

Esdeath sighed and said, "I've made myself very clear, Najenda. If it weren't for my good mood, your reaction speed today would have been very disappointing."

Najenda paused for a moment before saying, "I think anyone would react the same way upon hearing that... Just tell me, does your lover's restaurant require some kind of teleportation-type Imperial Arm?"

"Teigu? You don't need to match toys to him. The reason is simple: any Teigu is just child's play to him. To put it more bluntly... even if all the Teigu users cooperated perfectly and attacked him one by one, they would only be instantly killed."

Najenda paused for a moment, then said, "All the Imperial Arms?! You mean...?"

"That's right. All forty-eight Imperial Arms, everyone, including me, are proficient in their own Imperial Arms. When they work together in perfect harmony, even if all forty-eight Imperial Arms users attack together, they are no match for him alone, and no attack can affect him."

Mine exclaimed in disbelief, "This is impossible! How could there be such a powerful human?! And you said that forty-eight Teigu users could unite, which means he's not a Teigu user. In that case... an ordinary person can fight against forty-eight Teigu?!"

"Don't doubt what I say. I wouldn't lie to someone weaker than myself, understand?"

Mine was well aware of this, which is why she was completely stunned. Najenda said softly, "It looks like you've finished your makeup?"

"I'm not Zdelada, that guy who likes to wear heavy makeup..."

"Zdelada?"

"One of my sisters..."

Najendan and the others are filled with all sorts of questions, but they have no way of getting answers, and the answers they need are right in front of them.

Esdeath looked at her exquisite face, stood up and checked her clothes before saying softly, "Kuro-tomi, I will have my sister heal you, but you'd better not waste the life you've been given again."

Kurohime paused for a moment before nodding. Esdeath glanced at the sky outside the window, which had turned a deep blue due to the completely disappeared sun, and said softly, "It's almost time..."

Esdeath immediately drew the curtains, locked the door, and turned off the lights, making the room quiet and dim. Mine instinctively grabbed her Imperial Arm with one hand.

Esdeath said softly, "I don't want any unnecessary risks... Let's go, it's time to set off..."

Najendan paused for a moment and said, "You just locked the door from the inside."

"That's Mine, right...? Didn't she say 'wardrobe'? Let's go through the wardrobe then..."

Mine and the others were stunned. It really was a wardrobe! Was it real? Was it a fairy tale? But when Esdeath actually walked up to the wardrobe, the three of them fell silent.

Esdeath placed one hand on the wardrobe door and slowly closed her eyes, as if she were thinking about something. Mine glanced at Najenda with a puzzled look, and Najenda also expressed her incomprehension.

However, Najenda remained silent and simply watched. Finally, a sliver of light appeared in the dimly lit room. Both Mine and Najenda were utterly shocked; the situation was far more complex than they had imagined.

Even Kurohime was somewhat stunned. She whispered, "Captain...it's glowing..."

Upon hearing this, Esdeath chuckled and said, "Looks like I haven't been so bothered by these messes that I've forgotten what my home looks like... Najenda... Don't you want to know where my lover is?"

"Uh-huh...."

Esdeath placed both hands on the handles and said softly, "He's right here..."

As she spoke, she opened the cabinet door. The next thing she saw wasn't a collection of clothes, but a soft white light, warmer and gentler than the sun, giving people a cozy feeling that made them want to get closer.

Najenda stammered, "What...what is this?"

"Door...shop door..."

Mine rubbed her eyes and said, "A shop entrance? A shop entrance?! There really is a restaurant?! Where is it?"

"Just follow me... As assassins, you can sense that there's no danger behind this light, right? Kuroko, let's go."

"Yes!"

Esdeath strode inside, and Kurohime quickly followed. Mine swallowed hard, looking at Najenda, who gritted her teeth and said, "I feel... things are much more outrageous than we imagined..."

"Boss, shall we go?"

"Keep up, I'm kind of looking forward to it..."

"Yes!"

Chapter 413 Akali's Learning from Esdeath, Bai Yu's Thoughts (Please Subscribe~)

Shortly before Esdeath set off, Lucifer had been staring at her phone for a while, her nervousness evident in her eyes. Compared to Lacus, she was more worried about Esdeath.

Because Lux is at most a naive and innocent girl with a hidden devilish instinct, but this girl is completely different. Esdeath is too smart, and her thoughts are also the kind of person who is very extreme.

Although Esdeath is still very friendly to them, and sometimes even a little clueless when she doesn't know something, that doesn't mean she'll still be like that when she comes to talk business.

Esdeath is a conqueror, a sadist, a warmonger—what does she want to talk about? Who does she want to talk to? Why does she want them to treat her illness? Who is she treating? Why is a madwoman like Esdeath suddenly so concerned about someone?

Lucifer started thinking as soon as Nakiri Managi and the others went upstairs. Never underestimate a woman's brainstorming, especially a powerful woman. Who knows what kind of scenarios she will come up with in her mind?

Yuuko Ichihara tilted her head and looked at Shiraha with a puzzled expression, saying, "Shiraha... what's wrong with Lucy? She looks like a student checking their exam results..."

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's probably because of Esdeath... Lucy's imagination is really impressive."

"Oh...hey, by the way, Bai Yu, this is the last week of the month, and June is just around the corner. Do you have any thoughts on this?"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Sighs?"

"Ok!"

"Thank you world, thank you life, thank you living, thank you wisdom..."

Yuko Ichihara paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "That's enough! I wasn't asking you to be polite. I meant, what are your thoughts on this period of time?"

"Sigh... There's nothing to sigh about. Life goes on, and it's still unknown, so I'm really looking forward to what will happen next month."

"Hmm...that's true, but it's not all unknown."

"For example?"

Yuko Ichihara smiled and said, "For example, no matter how far into the future... I will be with you. For example... in the near future, we will have our own home. For example... there are too many things to list."

"That does seem to be true, but I'm going to have a headache again in a few days..."

Yuuko Ichihara tilted her head and said, "Hmm? Headache? Why?"

"Because Kusuo is coming again, but that's not the point... The point is... we're going to spend our summer vacation."

"so what?"

"So, Kusuo might come again at the end of the month and buy two months' worth of coffee jelly..."

Yuko Ichihara said with a smile, "Making three months' worth of coffee jelly in one month..."

Yuuko Ichihara patted Shiraha on the shoulder and said, "Yeah! Good luck! You've worked hard! Pfft..."

Bai Yu pinched Ichihara Yuko's cheek without saying a word, and Ichihara Yuko didn't resist. Suddenly, Bai Yu thought of something, chuckled, and said, "I think I know how to solve this problem..."

"Well?"

"If I make several batches of coffee jelly every day before the end of the month, and then have Kaguya or Yuno stop the coffee jelly from spoiling."

Yuko Ichihara exclaimed in realization, "Oh! That's true... In that case, doing two or three a day is just fine, no pressure at all, hmm... as expected of you."

"Hmm? Someone's here..."

"Could it be Esdeath?!"

Lucifer quickly looked up, and footsteps approached. It wasn't Esdeath who was coming, but Akali. A look of disappointment flashed across Lucifer's face.

Akali asked, puzzled, "Hmm? What's wrong?"

Bai Yu said gently, "Lucy thought it was Esdeath. She's been imagining Esdeath for a long time. Are you the only one?"

"Yes, Lady Soraka has been invited to the banquet. It seems that Sona, Lady Bouvier, and the prince have also been invited. In general, it's the same people who were at the previous welcome banquet."

Yuuko Ichihara asked in confusion, "Why are we having another banquet?"

"Lord Soraka said he would stay in Demacia for a few more days because many people were traveling from other places to Xiongdu for treatment. The treatment in Xiongdu is almost complete, so this is a thank-you dinner."

Bai Yu chuckled and said, "Soraka's really putting in the effort; it hasn't been long and she's almost finished with Xiongdu..."

Akali said softly, "Lady Soraka would be very excited if she heard this."

"So you didn't go to the banquet?"

Akali shook her head and said, "Of course I went, but the topics they talked about were so boring, and the food was not filling at all, and it wasn't really to my taste, so I said I was a little tired and went back to rest."

Yuko Ichihara said with a smile, "So, Akali, you've come here to improve your life?"

"Um, Bai Yu, I'd like a bowl of... noodles. Is that good?"

"It's quite delicious. It's spicy, so it should suit you well."

"Um... then I'll have a small bowl of noodles, a Coke, and a plate of sesame chops..."

"Okay, wait a minute. By the way, what kind of noodles do you want?"

Akali paused for a moment and said, "Type? What type?"

"For example, there are many kinds of noodles, such as beef noodles, pea noodles, noodles with minced meat sauce, and pork intestine noodles. You can choose one yourself."

"Pork intestines? What are pork intestines? Are they tasty?"

"Most people might not like it, but it's actually quite delicious... If you're interested but worried you might not like it, you can order a combination with beef, and you can have less pork intestines."

Akali nodded and said, "Okay, that's settled then. When is Esdeath coming?"

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment and said, "Huh? You talked to her?"

"Ever since I got my phone and joined the group, I've been chatting with them... especially Tsunade. I'm very interested in their ninjutsu, and she said she'd like to exchange ideas with them when she has time."

"I see... But what were you and Esdeath talking about? Aren't you a ninja? You shouldn't be involved in wars, right...?"

"I...I asked her about interrogation techniques..."

“Uh…” x2

Chapter 414 Soraka's Skin Color, Esdeath's Arrival (Please Subscribe~)

Akali felt a little embarrassed to say it, because telling her fiancé about learning interrogation techniques from Esdeath, even though it was to get information from spies, just didn't feel right...

Bai Yu didn't say anything and turned to go to the kitchen to prepare the food. Akali casually found a spot, and Ichihara Yuko said with a smile, "Hey, Akali, does this magic really work?"

"Yes, it works very well. I thought there would already be a lot of people when I arrived, but it seems I arrived too early."

"It's the same whether you come early or late. Oh, by the way, are you planning to come over during the summer vacation?"

Akali thought for a moment and said, "I will come, but it will be a while... Why?"

Yuko Ichihara paused for a moment, then clapped her hands and said, "Oh! I almost forgot you don't know, this summer vacation wasn't just about playing; it was also about discussing our future house and other things, so..."

"Is that so...? I'll talk to Lady Soraka... In that case, we'll probably be a little late, but it won't cause any problems... Also... what are those things from Gentian?"

"I don't know, she won't say anything, she just says it's a surprise and tells us to look forward to it. The most outrageous thing is... she doesn't say a word to those of us who are often in the store or even live there, but those who don't live there seem to know a little bit about it."

Akali paused for a moment, shook her head, and didn't say anything. She knew that Kobayashi Rindou had asked her for some data before, such as shoulder circumference, waist circumference, finger circumference, etc. She didn't think much of it, ran over to get a measuring tape and measured, and then ran back without eating. This surprised Kobayashi Rindou.

Yuko Ichihara sighed and said, "Hey, Lucy, just forget about it. Esdeath isn't in any danger, why worry about it so much?"

"That's true, but this is Esdeath! She's a conquest maniac! Who knows what she's up to?"

"That makes sense, but she won't harm civilians or surrendered soldiers. Many people surrendered directly, so there shouldn't be any problem. I guess it's just a matter for the capital."

“That makes sense, but I have no idea what she’s thinking. Never mind, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Hey, Akali, come over during the day when you have time.”

Akali paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Huh? Why?"

"If you're coming over for summer vacation, not to mention that your clothes are quite different from those here and you'll need to buy a few sets of clothes from this world—you can choose them yourself—but then... you'll need to buy swimsuits too."

"Um... a swimsuit?"

"You might not have it over there... that's it (several hundred words omitted here)."

Akali coughed lightly and said, "This... isn't it a bit..."

"We're all family, what are you afraid of?"
