253- Emma's suffering

Inside the bounty hunters building.

Earlier, once they got to her office, Emma took out 100 million Billy and gave it to Zenny, he wanted some interest because they got his money for a long time but she didn't give him anything and just gave him his money back.

But Zenny couldn't say anything because he knew that she was a strong person who could defeat Ethan within moments.

After giving him the money she asks everyone to get out of her office except for Ethan because she wants to talk to him privately.

After everyone left, Emma sat down on the table in the office with her right leg resting on her left leg and her thighs could be seen shining white with a beauty mark on them that seemed so obvious because all around it was beautiful white skin.

Ethan was tempted and really wanted to look at those beautiful long legs but he kept looking into her eyes because he didn't want to bother her by looking at her body.

She smiled and asked an unexpected question, "Do you think I'm beautiful?"

"You sure are very beautiful." Ethan nodded without hesitation.

'It's the same answer, but he's more confident.' Emma thought as her smile widened.

In her previous life when she was his boss she called him to her office and asked him the same question while she was sitting in the same way but at that time he was a new employee and he was nervous in front of his boss and he thought it was a test but at least he said the same answer.

"What do you think is the most beautiful thing about me? Is it my face, my body, my personality, or my soul?" She kept asking questions while wrapping both her arms under her breasts, making her breasts more prominent.

'Deja vu!!' Ethan felt that he had been in this situation before. No, not that he feels it, but he is sure that these are the same questions that were asked to him by his boss in the land and also the same behavior and the same movements, the only difference is that she speaks Japanese.

'Not only that, she also has the same name and the only thing different between the two is their looks.' Ethan begins to suspect that the two are the same person.

Ethan decided to give the same answer from his previous life. "I can't choose which is more beautiful because both your face and your body are great, but I don't know about your personality because we just met and also I don't understand what you mean when you say your soul."

"Hahaha~~" Emma started laughing so sweetly upon seeing that Ethan gave the same answer.

Ethan was surprised to see her laugh all of a sudden and didn't understand what was so funny about his answer.

After a while she stopped laughing and looked at Ethan, "Ethan, don't you recognize me yet?"

Ethan opened his eyes wide because he did not tell anyone his real name but the woman in front of him knew his name, 'Is she really Emma from Earth? But how did you get here?'

While Ethan was still shocked, Emma pounced on him and kissed him hard.

She put her arms around his neck as she pushed her tongue into his mouth.

She found a tongue and began to move subtly around it, but Ethan didn't like being passive and pushed her tongue out of his mouth using his tongue.

Ethan kissed Emma firmly and stuck his tongue deep into her mouth and began exploring her mouth with his tongue. Emma moved her tongue around his tongue inside her mouth and then closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling she got from the kiss.

Emma separated her mouth from his, then looked at him and said, "Can you recognize me now?"

"I'm really glad to see you again, Emma." Ethan looked at her with a big smile and was really happy to see her, "I was planning to go and see you after getting so strong but I guess that's not necessary anymore."

"Were you really planning to come back to Earth in order to see me?" Her face turned red as she buried her face in his chest.

"Yep." Ethan let out a chuckle, "Anyway, how did you get here?"

Emma made him sit on the sofa and then sat on his lap and began telling her story, "On that day when I found you dead, I was sad and scared."

"After your death, everyone knew that we had a sexual relationship with each other because you died in my house and also the cause of your death was that your heart stopped working so everyone thought you had a weak heart and the effort of sex damaged your heart causing your death."

"At that time my life was completely destroyed, I lost the person I fell in love with and it all happened because of me which made me blame myself for a long time and also my company started to deteriorate because of the rumors around me, fortunately I corrected the matter in time and the company returned to normal but there was a void in my heart."

"I could never forget you as if you were engraved in my heart which made me perpetually depressed because I could not be with you anymore."

Ethan's face looked sad upon hearing that she was suffering after his death so he hugged her tightly while apologizing, "Sorry, I didn't expect you to suffer like this."

"I'm fine now." She kissed him on the cheek while her hand intertwined with his, "Let me continue."

"This went on for a long time but it ended when I suddenly fainted and woke up in an unknown place which made me think I had been kidnapped but a very beautiful girl appeared before me who claimed to be a goddess."

"She said she sympathized with me because of my suffering, so she gave me two options: 1- to erase you from my memories to continue my life normally 2- to be reborn with my memories and I will have a chance to meet you."

"I didn't want to forget you so I chose the second option." She placed her head on his chest and a smile appeared on her face "And now I can finally meet you again."

"After I chose the second option, she told me that I had to do some things for her, so she gave me a system in order to become stronger and also implement her requests in the form of missions."

Hearing about the goddess, Ethan had some doubts, "What does that goddess look like?"

"She was so beautiful that no words could describe her, She looked like a 25-year-old woman with silver hair almost touching the floor. She stood at about 192 cm or something along the lines."

'Isn't this Alicia?' Ethan was 100% sure that the goddess was his girlfriend Alicia, 'Maybe I should ask her about this after I meet her.'

After that, Emma started talking about her life in this world, how she was an orphan since childhood, how she was trained with the help of the system, and how she started moving from island to island while completing some of the system's missions.

Most of the missions were related to defeating pirates or rescuing some people, etc. "System quests were only about pirates with a bounty of less than 50 million, and for the first time two weeks ago I got a task telling me to defeat a pirate with a bounty of 200 million."

"Two weeks ago I received a mission from the system or more specifically the goddess telling me to come here to become the leader of these bounty hunters, at first I didn't understand what the point of this mission was but now I do." Her eyes were shining with happiness. She is really happy that she met Ethan, twenty-five years after she came to this world.

Ethan sighed, raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the room, "Can I ask something?"

"You can ask me what you want."

"How did you manage to avoid my Observation Haki, I didn't sense you at all. Even if your speed was so high, I should have known the direction of your attack." Ethan spoke seriously, if only he could see her movements using the Observation Haki he wouldn't have been defeated this way.

Emma stood up and looked at Ethan seriously, "Use the Observation Haki and anticipate my next move."

Suddenly Emma disappeared from her spot and appeared behind Ethan with a dagger on his neck, "You couldn't tell my next move even with Observation Haki, could you?

"I could not." Cold sweat appeared on Ethan's forehead and he didn't understand how this was possible.

"Ethan, look at me." Emma appeared in front of him again and then said seriously, "It's not because of my speed, try to anticipate my next move."

Emma made a slight movement and extended her hand and took a paper from her desk, "Tell me, did you expect me to take the paper?"

"How can you do this?" Ethan didn't understand why Observation Haki isn't working on Emma.

"It's because of my Observation Haki. I have reached a new level in Haki where I can completely hide my intention and no one will ever expect my next move even if they use Observation Haki." Emma has been training hard for twenty years with the system, so it's no wonder that she outperformed all the haki users, "Although my physical and overall strength is similar to the Yonko, with my haki I can defeat them without relying on the Devil Fruit."

Ethan "So the next level after seeing the future is to conceal the intention."

"Yes."

"Damn it, if your movements are unpredictable and with your high speed it will be almost impossible to dodge your attacks." A serious expression appeared on Ethan's face as he thought, 'Is there a way that would allow me to overcome this?'

'All I can think of is that I should move as fast as Emma or even faster but it's still impossible to predict her attacks while she can still predict mine.' The only solution was to develop his own Observation Haki.

After thinking about this, Ethan let out a long sigh, "I have to further intensify the training."

Emma noticed that he was comparing his strength with hers. "Ethan, how many years have you trained to reach your current strength?"

"Less than five months." He did not understand the reason for her question, but he answered honestly.

"Ethan, you only trained for five months, while I trained for over twenty years." She was really shocked by Ethan's rapid progress in strength.

Emma wrapped her hands around his neck and looked at him seriously, "So don't be discouraged by your loss to me."

"I am not discouraged by my loss." Ethan smiled as he kissed her. "But next time I will be the winner."
