The two men looked up at Asura, "We're not/Shut up crane tail." The two glanced at each other before they started to follow her. The two were a bit embarrassed by their masters joke. They felt it was their duty to protect her. Especially since to them, she was able to resurrect and give them knowledge but, couldn't fight herself.
The others came to her and Cole knelt down infront of Ryu. He said, "If I wasn't blackmailed...I could've."
She moved to bonk Cole on the head, "No one can predict everything. Besides, you were asking Ezio for help to save him. So, you weren't at fault...if anything you should be blaming the people who ordered it; not yourself."
Ezio said, "Senora is right, it isn't your fault; You were with me. It's partially Senora's fault as Indra and Asura or my people could have rescued her earlier but, she refused."
Liara looked a bit embarrassed, "I honestly underestimated the amount of stupid and greed those pig heads had. I thought with their age they would have some political acumen or wisdom. At least enough to understand that it wasn't a good idea to shoot someone whose planning to leave honestly."
She was about to add something but, stopped as she got a notification. *Ding, hosts subordinates took over two cities. Reward:two swordsmen tokens, (Captain Unohana Retsu, Virgil)* She actually flashed a little fear in her eyes before she concealed it unfortunately, Indra caught it. She thought, 'Why is the system giving me powerful people since, it attached to me? Well mostly powerful people? Ezio can be considered a mid tier in my summons. It is as if something bad is going to happen.'

Indra moved to her side and flashed a questioning look. She glanced at him as she was caught in his Sharingan's illusion. He bowed to her as the scene changed into a beautiful scenery. He said, "Master, what spooked you? Don't worry, no one else can hear us."
She exhaled, "I can trust you right, if I tell you about how I can summon you or help you get stronger..."
Indra thought for a second and knelt in front of her and placed a Kunai to his own chest, "Master, I am grateful for this life you've given me. If you order me to die, I will gladly give my life to you."
She grabbed his wrist to keep him from doing it. She said, "You know that's not what I asked...I am just...scared if I tell you guys that..."
Indra just moved to have her in his arms which, caused her to look up at him. He said, "Master, I am not stupid or as emotional like Asura. I will not tell your secrets as for using you, I-we owe you our lives...as I said, I will gladly give you my life if you order it. If you wish for me to keep your secrets, I will. I will never cause you harm."
Her face became red as if she heard a confession. She even felt him raise her chin with his thumb and understood something, "So, please...trust us; trust me...as I said, 'we are here to help you'. even if you want one of us as your prince." At that, her body outside kind of bowled over as she got a bit overheated and he caught her.

Asura said, "Indra, what did you do to Master? I am not stupid to know you didn't do anything."
Indra said, "She's just tired brother, going through what she did is stressful so, I helped her relax. Master will be fine in a few hours." He then moved to put her in the back of a van they would use.
Asura asked, "Then why is her face red? did you embarrass her in your illusion?"
Ezio chuckled, "There's more than one way to make a girl's face red. Maybe he confessed his feelings to her, are you trying to be our boss? If so, I recall that she has two other candidates who may fight you for it."
Asura raised an eyebrow before messing with his clothes. Ezio rolled his eyes, he would've tried but, he wasn't a young buck anymore. He also didn't see Asura in this race but, couldn't offend these two brothers.
Indra chuckled as he saw it out of the corner of his eye. He simply said, "My life belongs to her, if she wishes me to be your boss I will have no objections." He then had a bit of a contemplative look in his eye for a bit before going back to his usual serious look.
He thought, 'Why is it that I have a warm feeling in my heart when I am with her? She's my master I should feel duty-bound to serve her. I mean, she decided to stay in that room to give us time to save her subordinates apprentice that proves she's kind. From what I can tell from her room, she tries to learn various subjects and tries to help her clan. It should prove she's worthy of being my leader...even if she has a few stupid moments.'
He said, "Let's just get ready to go. It won't be safe here for long. Asura you heal our master's father. Cole Ezio, I assume you have a safehouse ready?"
Ezio said, "Yes, an abandoned house next to a shrine. It's the best the brotherhood can do for now." He got in the drivers seat of the car letting the other get in before they left.
