Episode 16: Leone: Kiddo, let the billionaire teach you a little big intellectual~
『 "Big brother..."
"Thanks to you, I was able to win just now."
"I'm sorry. Until the very last moment, I did something stupid that made you want to hit me."
Tatsumi, with tears in his eyes, lowered his head and looked at Brand, who was lying on the ground in the pouring rain, with no signs of life, muttering incessantly.
"But... I will become stronger, I will definitely master that Incursio skill!"
"But... can... I... cry for a bit now..."
"Waaaaaaaaah—!!"
Tatsumi cried in grief. The death of Sheele had prepared him somewhat.
But... when it all really happened before his eyes.
He couldn't bear it.
The scenes of training with Brand, the memories of laughing together with Brand...
These images kept swirling in his mind.
His heart was torn,
The pain was unbearable.
Why am I so weak,
Why am I so helpless,
Why!!』

~Chat Room~
[March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): "Too tragic, it makes me want to cry again."]
[Kirigaya Kazuto (Sword Art Online): "At that time, he thought he was going to die too, but he didn't die in the end."]
[Kirigaya Kazuto (Sword Art Online): "So, at this time, will he..."]
[Brand (Akame Ga Kill): "Tatsumi, as a man, you can't cry like this. And this kind of ending for me is the best!"]
[Tatsumi (Akame Ga Kill): "....."]
[Leone (Akame Ga Kill): "Poor little guy, let big sister comfort you."]
[ ..... ]
~Akame ga Kill! world~
~Night Raid Headquarters~
"Tatsumi, what a crybaby! Hehe."
Mine covered her mouth, turned her head, and giggled secretly.
"Haha, I find that I like Tatsumi a little bit! Mine, don't be jealous~~~"
As soon as she finished speaking, Leone pounced like a tiger descending the mountain. The weak Tatsumi was no match for her and was teased by her without any power to resist.
Lubbock, watching from the side, couldn't help but feel a bit envious...
"Look, those imperial ministers are all dumbfounded when they see our powerful combat power! Haha!"
Lubbock has always been very optimistic.
Yeah, that's right, it's not because of envy or anything.
On the other side, Esdeath, returning from the battlefield, saw that all her subordinates were dead.
She didn't show any sad expression on her face.
After all, in her opinion, weak existences should die.
But.
"Hehe, Tatsumi, huh."
"This smile really makes me feel affection."
Far away, in the Night Raid Headquarters base, Tatsumi, who was being hugged by big sister Leone, suddenly felt a chill Sheele all over his body for some reason.
.....
In the Sky Curtain.
『 The scene changes,
This time, it directly comes to Esdeath's bedroom in the Jaegers' headquarters.
In the picture, Tatsumi is sitting nervously on the wide bed, his face full of bewilderment.
Two sounds echoed in the room, one was Tatsumi's rapid heartbeat like a drumbeat, and the other was the silhouette of a woman behind the screen.
Tatsumi's face was full of shyness, and his heart was beating so fast that it seemed to be catching up with a speeding race car. This was the first time he had encountered such a heartwarming moment.
Since leaving the village, the only women he had contact with were the members of the Night Raid team, and there had never been any close behavior. 』

~Chat Room~
[Mine (Akame Ga Kill):"???"]
[Mine (Akame Ga Kill):"Tatsumi!!! I really misjudged you, I didn't expect that in the future you would actually... go to that kind of place!"]
[Kaeya (Genshin Impact): "Oh my, is this something I can watch without spending money?"]
[Tatsumi (Akame Ga Kill): "This, this, what exactly is going on!"]
[Brand (Akame Ga Kill): "Hahaha, kiddo, big brother is very optimistic about you."]
[Brand (Akame Ga Kill): "It's just that you need to pay attention to your personal safety recently."]
[Leone: (Akame Ga Kill): "Boy, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. Do you want big sister to give you some special training?"]
[Tatsumi (Akame Ga Kill): "No, no need."]
[Najenda (Akame Ga Kill):"The decoration of this room, and the clothes over there, hiss..."]
[Najenda (Akame Ga Kill): "Impossible, there's absolutely no way she would do such a thing."]
[ ..... ]
Along with Najenda's panic.
『 The woman who had finished bathing also walked out.
But as a touch of blue hair appeared.
She was already stunned in place.
"Sorry to keep you waiting~ Tatsumi."
Having finished bathing and changing, Esdeath's wet, water-blue hair fell to her waist. She walked into the room wearing a white shirt.
Her gentle and fair legs were even more attractive in the mist rising after the bath.
Her jade feet, covered with water droplets, lightly stepped on the carpet, giving off a unique charm. 』
