Chapter 68 - A Date?  

Ever since coming to country J, Rudra had never left the Upside , this was the first time he would step out of the upside and actually see the city he resided in.

Rudra wore a denim jeans ironically it was a cuber , and a black musclefit tshirt for today ..... It was casual and stylish , yet gave a little rich look .

His mother had styled him today ... Although he told her it was just a friendly meet , she fussed over it like he was going to meet his bride .

Rudra was perplexed by Yua's sudden call about meeting him in real life ... She asked about going to a cafè and not in her office which perplexed Rudra even more ... His heart wanted to beleive she was asking him on a date , but his mind told him that there was no way it was possible , it was probably a friendly outing.

Rudra took the special custom upside sports car that came with the mansion and he rolled out.

Although Yua had a personal chauffeur and could easily come to wherever they decided to meet. Rudra insisted on picking her up.

He picked her up from outside the Nakatomi tower , Yua was wearing a singlepiece formal dress which was navy blue in color , it perfectly complimented her smooth white skin ..... Rudra s heart skipped a beat seeing her for a minute .... She looked absolutely beautiful yet very elegant .

" Hey " Yua said in a cute voice

Rudra instantly blushed ..... Such a sweet voice!

" Hey" he replied , avoiding eye contact as he did not want her to see his flushed face.

Although Rudra had seen Yua before in the game , her appearance in game with the armour on and hair tied tightly was in stark contrast to today ... The look she had today was more to his taste .

Yua studied Rudra for a while ..... And she too found him good looking enough ..... By no means was Rudra a pop star level handsome , yet he was definitely better than average. But what she found the most attractive in Rudra was his shy personality , she instantly saw his deep blush and his reluctance to make eye contact. For a man to have such a reaction to her meant he was charmed .... Yua smiled.

They drove towards the designated cafè , and talked about random stuff during the drive , when Yua suddenly said?" Sooo , no flowers for me? "

Rudra subconsciously hit brake ....... " Flowers?"

" Men usually bring a gift to their dates dont you know " Yua teased

Rudra' s expression became gloomy ... Yes ofcourse , how could he make such a basic mistake ..... But then instantly it lit up " Are we on a date? " He asked.

Yua laughed , " Ofcourse this is a date silly, if i just wanted to talk buisness i would not have called you to a cafè , i would have called you to my office ".

Rudra beamed ....... Then he asked in a low voice " What are we gonna talk about apart from buisness?".

" About you ....I wanna know the man behind the Guild leader of True Elites, and if you wanna know then also about me?". Yua said

Rudra smiled ... While driving he stopped the car for a second as he ran into a shop , he bought a bouquet of flowers , but being extremely in experienced in the department , he chose to make a bouquet of one of every flower in the shop. Making it look like a collage rather than a beautiful bouquet .

Coming back he presented it to Yua with a sincere smile , Yua accepted it gracefully . She wanted to laugh at Rudra's flower selection , but seeing him running to get her flowers and his silliness in buying one of each kind she found it too endearing to make fun off.

She was genuinely touched , but she quickly realized something and pointed it out to Rudra ....." You have never dated before have you?" .

Rudra was at a loss of words at such a question he needed to answer carefully , truthfully he did have a girlfriend in his past life , but that bitch ran away when his life was on a downward spiral , and also there she had chased him as he was ascending on the ranks , he had never put in effort behind courting her..... Also in this life there was no such incidence , hence he said ... " No .... How can you tell ".

" The flowers you bought me , why did you bring one of every kind? ". She Asked laughing.

" Well i dont know what you like , soo i bought everything " Rudra said scratching his nose

" Hahahaha , i did not expect guild leader Shakuni to be soo inexperienced in real life ". Yua made fun of Rudra .

Rudra was embarrassed... However before he could say anything Yua said " I like orchids , dont worry , ill teach you everything about dating girls ......" After a pause she said " and about what i like ".

The ice between them was broken at that point , and they goofed around like teenagers for most part of the day ..... Sometimes talked buisness about guilds alliances and future plans and sometimes they ate , gossiped and got to know each other.

It was a terrific day for Rudra , who was completely blown away by Yua's charm ... He found a new motivation?, if he could bring True Elites to great heights then maybe one day he will be capable of becoming Yua's boyfriend .

At the end when Rudra dropped Yua back , she waited for a while not stepping out .... As if she was waiting for Rudra to make a move ..... Rudra had the thought about kissing her , however was too shy to move .

Yua clearly understood the situation , she opened the door and quickly pecked a kiss on Rudra's cheek before running away.

Standing outside she said " you had your chance guild leader ..... However you missed it ". Slamming the door shut and walking away.

Rudra was stunned on the spot for a minute ..... Sigh , he missed his opportunity .... However as he touched his cheek , he instantly blushed. Yua was much more progressive than he was.

How can he be a man if he blushes more than the girl does .... Sigh , he needed more self confidence . Rudra drove away smiling ..... This was a much needed break from the game ..... And with an amazing time spent with Yua he felt completely refreshed and reenergized .

Well the special event is just round the corner .... He would get busy again ..... However he was ready .

Back in the gaming pod as he activated the game Rudra said ' Omega here i come again!'.
