Chapter 215: This guy is a miser, he must be scared
"Boss, those I'm talking about."
In the room used for Night Raid base discussions, Mine pointed at Ryota and the others, and gave a brief introduction.
Najenda and the others carefully watched Ryota and his entourage.
Especially Ryota, the captain, became the focus of their observations.
Secret organization members, strength aside, they all look good.
Bulat and Akame stood by Najahitan's side, and Bulat even materialized Incursio.
"No need to be overly vigilant."
Seeing this, Mine reminded: "My teammates are not evil, Boss, rest assured."
"Mine, you..."
Najenda frowned slightly.
How long had Mine known these people, why was she siding with them?
"Are they really trustworthy?" Akame asked Mine.
The other people in Night Raid don't show much kindness when they meet for the first time.
It is estimated that everyone has the feeling that their partner has been hunted by outsiders who don't know where they come from.
"Of course it's credible!" Mine nodded heavily: "You really don't have to worry about anything. If my captain wants to make a move, you won't be his opponent."
Everyone in Night Raid: "..."
"Okay, Mine, don't worry about these trivial things."
Ryota made a sound and ended the topic. He wasn't surprised by the wary reactions of the Night Raid members.
Even though Mine had given explanations and reassurances, the life of a assassin was precarious, and they had to be on high alert.
What's more, this was the first official meeting between the two sides. Compared to such trivial matters, the number and composition of Night Raid's members made him even more worried.
There is something missing?
Why not even have Tatsumi?
And Sheele, the bespectacled girl still alive, casts a curious glance at him.
Unusual!
It wasn't that he wanted to let people die, but the timing wasn't right.
Could it be that the plot hasn't started yet?
No, judging by the information revealed by Mine's casual chat, the timeline here should be very close to the next stage of the plot.
(Could it be that Mine had greatly increased her strength in the Adventurer's Guild, so some things had changed, causing a corresponding butterfly effect, causing the plot here to deviate from its original path?) Ryota thought about it.
This possibility was very high, he just didn't know where Tatsumi should go...
"Captain, I heard from Mine that you are here to assist the Night Raid and the Minister's assassination?"
After a bit of silence, Najenda spoke first, confirming to Ryota.
"No."
Ryota recovered from his thoughts and shook his head.
"...No?"
Hearing this, Najenda gave him a suspicious look. Then she looked at Mine again, doubt in her eyes.
Mine was also a little confused.
She reacted quickly and reminded Ryota: "Wait. Captain, don't joke at such a formal event."
"Who's joke?"
Ryota curled his lips and said: "It's too insulting to talk about murder. It's just a minister. Of course I will kill him."
"... Blatant murder?" Najenda was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
"Just enter the palace of the imperial capital, find the location of the minister, and chop him to death." Ryota explained.
"..."
Najenda frowned: "Is this too reckless?"
"Won't."
"...Captain, you may not know that the empire now has even more Teigu envoys..."
"I know."
"..."
Najenda could not continue.
Does this person really know?
Still don't want to talk nonsense with him?
She set the mood and kindly reminded: "Esdeath! You must have heard this name. This woman… no, this monster is now in the imperial capital, forcibly breaking into the palace, which is no different from approaching death…"
"Seeking death for you, but for me it is different." Ryota said bluntly: "Don't worry about the danger and success rate. As long as I act, it will be safe."
"But Esdeath, she..."
"Don't worry, I'll hack her to death."
"And General Budo..."
"Then attack again." Ryota clapped his hands, "That's easy."
Najenda: "..."
Lubbock couldn't take it anymore, and stood up from behind Najenda, and said directly: "You are not afraid to stick out your tongue when you talk big!"
"Exactly right!" Leone agreed, "Although having backing is a good thing, but if you are a friend, you will only talk big… Sorry, I don't want to entrust my back to an idiot's hands."
"Lubbock, Leone, back off." Najenda shouted at her subordinates.
Her brows were still furrowed, as if she was dissatisfied with Ryota's perfunctory and joking attitude.
"This was so unplanned."
Najenda's tone revealed a mood of rejection:
"Now that there are too many Teigu emissaries gathering in the imperial capital, let alone killing ministers, just going in and out of the imperial capital is much more dangerous than before. I can't let my people take the risk with you."
"Boss, wait a moment."
Suddenly, Bulat wearing Incutsion whispered: "This man is quite dangerous! His aura was too strong, and I had absolutely no confidence in winning. His speech cannot be completely refuted."
"Hah? You mean..."
Najenda was a little surprised, and checked Ryota again.
At this, Ryota got up from his seat.
This action shocked the Night Raid members, and they immediately became alert.
Especially Akame whose hand was already in the grip of "Murasame". She also heard what Bulat said. Believing in her teammates, she immediately listed Ryota as the most dangerous warning object.
"It seems you made a mistake."
Ryota took two steps forward. After standing still, he looked into the eyes of the Night Raid members and said: "In the first place, I did not regard you as a fighting force. Just leave the battle to me. It is up to you whether you go to the imperial capital or not, and you can stay here and wait for news. "
Najenda: "..."
"Then what is my purpose in looking for us…?" She asked inexplicably: "Did you just tell us that you will deal with the minister?"
"Yes."
"..."
Najenda was silent for a moment.
Is this person here to play with them?
"Don't doubt my words," Ryota said, "I am here to warn you… or to alert the Revolutionary Army behind you, once we have killed the resistance forces in the imperial capital and taken control of the emperor, you can start acting. I hope that you can take over this country as soon as possible and calm the chaotic situation."
"…As long as everything you say can come true."
Najenda took a deep breath and asked: "I want to ask, why did you do this?"
"For Mine." Ryota replied.
Immediately, Mine's face turned red: "W-What nonsense are you talking about!?"
"Wow... What an excited speech." Lubbock suddenly whistled.
Even Najenda's complexion became slightly abnormal.
At the same time, Ryota felt two piercing stares from behind.
"Sorry I didn't explain." He quickly added: "Mine is my teammate now. As captain, I think it's right to take care of my team-mates. At least let her have a relatively stable living environment and ensure convenient time for the things we have to do in the future."
After saying these words, Ryota felt that the glare from behind disappeared.
Are two girls jealous...
"What to do next..." Najenda asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I can't tell you that," Ryota shook his head, "You just need to know that it has nothing to do with the Empire or the Revolutionary Army."
Hearing this, Najenda looked at Mine, hesitated for a moment, bowed and asked: "Mine, he shouldn't force you to do anything, right?"
"No, just go to a more distant place and complete some more interesting tasks, Boss, don't worry." Mine entertains.
"Okay."
Ryota clapped and caught everyone's attention: "All that needs to be said has been said, and it is time for us to enter the verification process."
"Verification process?" Najenda had a bad feeling: "What does it mean?"
"Just to tell you I'm not boasting."
Ryota replied: "Initially, this step should be put forward, so that the efficiency of resolving trust issues is the fastest. However, seeing as you are Mine's friend, it wouldn't be right for me to be so rude in the first place, I still hoped to gain trust through communication, but…"
"What do you want to say in the end?"
"We will see."
Ryota suddenly grinned, showing a happy smile. The whole temperament suddenly changed, like a huge beast, making people feel suffocated.
Akame, Bulat and the others immediately became alert. Instinctively, they drew their weapons.
At this time, Ryota's right hand had already signaled with a sword, and slashed towards the space on the right.
In an instant, everyone lost their sight.
Everything disappeared... No, it didn't disappear, but the light of the fire filled all visions and dispelled all attention.
Explosion--!
It was followed by a loud roar.
Like a series of lightning strikes the ear.
The disaster scene lasts for a few seconds before ending.
When everyone in Night Raid regained their senses, they found the direction Ryota had waved, and a part of the base disappeared as if it had been swallowed up by a monster.
Looking ahead from the cave entrance, the forest along the way disappeared.
A wave of heat swept through, and the flames made the eyes sore — it was an environment like a huge lava lake.
Under Ryota's simple slash, the earth became scorched and hard as hell.
"..."
Najenda gulped.
...
The imperial capital is only 10 kilometers away from the night raid base.
After Ryota gains the "trust" of the Night Raid members, he takes his teammates out of the imperial capital.
Najenda returns to the Revolutionary Army headquarters to report.
After recovering from the shock, the other Night Raid members chose to follow Ryota.
They seem to want to witness the next historical moment.
Yes, the members Night Raid, who had already prepared for a death battle, had completely changed their mentality now. From an assassin to the audience wanting to watch the show.
As for fighting together, they are not worth it!
Every member of Night Raid recognized this. After relaxing, everyone's mood became a little ethereal.
Looking back at the blood shed in the past, the comrades who sacrificed… If Ryota really did capture the entire imperial capital with just a few moves, then what was the significance of their efforts so far?
"Did Shiro-chan just..."
After arriving outside the imperial capital, Hayasaka couldn't help complaining, and asked Ryota: "Isn't that a bit too pretentious?"
She pointed at the Night Raid members behind her, and whispered: "Look at their expressions, they seem to have been beaten by you to the point of doubting their lives."
"The strong side is for the Revolutionary Army to show, and it can be taken as a warning for their attitude towards Mine."
After standing still, Ryota looked at the imperial capital city wall ahead, and replied: "After all, I am more or less a captain, so I should treat my team members better."
"You don't need to do this kind of thing."
Mine behind, heard the conversation of the two. Her cheeks were slightly rosy, and she hurriedly said: "The people of the Revolutionary Army have always been very polite to me."
"That's your illusion."
Ryota turned his head and glanced at her, speechless: "You are a assassin rushing to the forefront, how polite are other people to you? This time your boss will bring the news back, and they will really appreciate you."
"Um... thank you."
Mine was a little awkward and grateful
"You're welcome." Ryota smiled. Then he turned his head and looked at the majestic city walls of the imperial capital.
There was excited emotion in his eyes.
At this time, the guards on duty at the city wall gate discovered their group.
The extraordinary temperament and appearance left the guards stunned.
Turning their eyes back, they recognized Akame and Bulat immediately became nervous.
"Let's go to the palace."
Ryota ignored the guards and walked straight to the gate.
"Wait...!"
Mine chased after him: "How do we get in there?"
She had already taken the Pumpkin.
The guards were already in a panic, and the person in charge of the courier left the city wall immediately.
Ryota watched this scene indifferently, and replied to Mine...and also the people behind him:
"Aren't you curious about my Fourth Bridge, let's show it now."
As the voice fell, a "domain" spread from it.
Mine and the others immediately discovered that the speed of some of the attacking guards was becoming slower and slower… Finally, they were as slow as standing still and stopped more than ten meters.
Ryota passed the guards and entered the imperial capital.
Mine and the others quickly followed Ryota while looking curiously at the still images around them.
Upon learning of the situation, the guards in the imperial capital rushed over. But when they wanted to get closer, without exception, they fell into a quagmire of ever slowing down, unable to extricate themselves.
Strange phenomena like that keep happening.
Ryota led his teammates into the palace without a hitch.
Currently, the entire imperial capital was in chaos.
