"No."
She explained with a laugh, "I just thought of how Rallard will look when he comes back in a couple of days and finds out I got here several days before him. His expression will be hilarious."
"..."
You're far too easily amused.
"All right, stay here for now. Once things blow over, remember to come back and keep working for me."
Akasha folded her arms, pushing her full breasts high, and snorted. "Hmph, this is my turf. Believe it or not, one shout from me, and eight or ten Sanguine will jump out and take you down before you can even teleport."
"Really?"
Ancient gears turned in Edward's eyes. Akasha suddenly felt an intense wave of weakness, followed by the disappearance of something seemingly rooted in her bloodline.
She distinctly felt herself drop from Sequence 6 to Sequence 7, then continue falling from Sequence 7... until she became a Sequence 8 human!
"What... did you do to me?"
Even Akasha panicked at this point.
"Just messing with you."
Edward took a step back, his silhouette fading away.
Akasha hurriedly called out, "Wait."
"You'll recover in half a day or a day."
"No, what I wanted to ask was... didn't you promise to teach me how to get beautiful women to come to me? You still haven't told me."
Edward fell silent.
This woman... is she really this carefree?
"It's simple. Open an upscale private hot spring and target wealthy ladies and young women. Make soaking in your private hot spring a symbol of sophistication and fashion, and then an endless stream of beautiful women will come to you every day and take their clothes off."
Akasha paused. "That's it?"
"That's it."
She rolled up her sleeves and said angrily, "As if I needed you to teach me that!
