The Mask of a Clock (Akame Ga Kill x Mreader)

4: Jaegers

(Y/n POV)

Seryu: Good morning, Doctor. How was your sabbatical?

Y/n: I'm sorry?

Dr. Stylish: Yes. How was that sabbatical, Dr. Rupercht Kroenen? The one you were just telling me about?

Y/n: Ah, yes. I told du that I don't tell people about what I do in my life. So stop asking what I did.

Seryu: Oh, of course. runs ahead

Dr. Stylish: Nice save...

Y/n: You said I was gone for several days.

Dr. Stylish: That was somewhat a lie. It took a while to find your key.

Y/n: And the remaining 7 months?

Dr. Stylish: Please, give me credit... It was 11.

Y/n: Was!?

Dr. Stylish: I enjoyed the quiet! Besides, everyone's hoping to meet the immortal scientist.

Y/n: By everyone, du mean...

Dr. stylish: The Jaegers.

Y/n: "Jaegers"? Such a simple name.

Dr. Stylish: Not exactly my first choice. I also heard Esdeath brought in a new recruit from the arena today.

Y/n: If she picked this person, he must be at least as strong as an Imperial Captain.

Dr. Stylish: You did read the files on your teammates, right?

Y/n: I chose to learn their names, not their skill. If they truly are strong, physical proof must be shown.

Dr. Stylish: Fair enough.

I walk into the room where the Jaegers had already gathered. The new recruit was tied up in a chair while Esdeath was talking to the group before we walked in.

Esdeath: Ah, you must be the new member Dr. Stylish spoke fondly of.

Y/n: Yes, and du are the revered general Esdeath. I've heard of your exploits and methods of war. To have such a reputation of yours is rather an interest for me.

Esdeath: Yes, I've heard of you and your self-experimentation as well. Such gruesome techniques that you performed on yourself made me wonder whether you were truly perfect for my kill-squad.

I bow my head as a long spike of ice nearly grazes my hat and impales the wall behind me. One of the Jaegers actually looks surprised by this action, leading me to believe he was somewhat new to these kinds of interactions.

Esdeath: And it seems I was right.

Y/n: While I would not doubt your decisions, I wonder if choosing this one gestures to hostage was the right call. Compared to us, he does not seem prepared for what du would ask of us.

I took the time to acknowledge the others gathered in the room. Many of them were from several different factions of the Imperial army. A large man even had the makings of one from the feared incineration squadron, based upon his mask and Teigu.

Esdeath: He is a perfect backup member for our squadron. Tatsumi not only proved his skill and power in the tournament, but he has also proven to be sigh my lover.

Wave: But why is he chained like a dog?

Esdeath: What if he runs away?

Run: If you want him to be your lover, perhaps removing the collar is best. I mean, he's not some sort of pet.

Esdeath: True. removes collar Perhaps one of you lot could shed some light on this dilemma of mine. Have any of you ever been in love?

Bols: *raises hand*
