Especially Akame's younger sister Kurome, who is also a girl with a tragic fate.
On the other side, at the Night Raid site, everyone returned to the base feeling utterly dejected.
Najendan immediately prepared to contact the Revolutionary Army, as the capital was far too dangerous. She needed either to have Night Raid withdraw from the capital or to receive support from above.
Chapter 17 The Hunter is established!
Nothing much happened in the next few days, and Kong Yang was happy to have some free time.
Aside from wandering around aimlessly and absorbing negative energy, that's all he does.
As for Esdeath, as the Great General, she had quite a few things to do, not too many, and in addition to dealing with Night Raid, the Three Beast Warriors had been searching for Night Raid's whereabouts in the capital for the past few days.
Unfortunately, because of Kong Yang, the Night Raid has now completely disappeared.
'Da~'
That afternoon, Esdeath approached Kong Yang.
"Today is the first day the hunters gather. Do you want to go?"
"Me? I'm not a member of the Hunters."
"It doesn't matter, it's just a title anyway."
"Ok."
Since Kong Yang is quite free now, it wouldn't be bad for him to get involved in the Hunters' affairs.
In this world, apart from Esdeath, there was no one and nothing else that could capture Kong Yang's attention.
Since the decision has been made to let the World Tree Sapling completely devour this world, the fate of this world is naturally sealed. As for the plot and characters, to be honest, I'm not really interested.
In the afternoon, the hunters gathered at the designated meeting point.
Esdeath and the Three Beasts were all there, while Kong Yang sat to the side like an outsider.
'Thump~ thump~ thump~'
A knock sounded on the door, and the first person arrived.
"Come in."
"Um, my name is Polus, nice to meet you."
A man wearing a strange mask walked in. He used to work for the incineration unit, a special unit that would burn anyone who was condemned for a crime without asking any questions.
Borus is one of them, and he is also the user of the Teigu, Rubigand, summoned by the Teigu Purgatory.
"Yes, I am Esdeath, and they are Riva, Daidas, and Niu. From now on, you will be colleagues."
"Yes, I understand, Lady Esdeath."
This is the empire's youngest and most ruthless female general; her reputation and intimidation have shocked the world.
He carefully found a corner to sit down, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the room before finally settling on Kong Yang.
Because Kong Yang seemed like an outsider, as if he didn't care about anything, but anyone who could stay by General Esdeath's side could not possibly be an ordinary person.
'Click~'
Just then, the door was pushed open, and a man walked in, carrying a bundle on his back.
However, upon entering, the other person froze, stared at the people inside, and then instinctively paused for a moment before pushing the door open and closing it again.
Not long after, the door opened again, and his expression clearly showed some bitterness.
"Um, this is Will from the Navy, reporting for duty."
Will, originally a member of the Empire's Navy, is also a Teigu user. His Teigu is an armor-type Teigu similar to Demon Possession, namely Shura Incarnation: Noble Chariot.
"I am Esdeath, please take a seat."
"Yes."
Soldiers are duty-bound to obey orders. Although he is a naval officer, he is also a qualified soldier.
Esdeath, as a general of the Empire, was his superior in every respect.
Within half an hour, the rest of the people arrived one after another: Kurohime from the Imperial Assassination Squad, Seryu from the Imperial Capital Garrison, Ran, a former village teacher, and Dr. Fashion, a scientist from the Imperial Research Department.
At this point, all members of the hunter squad had arrived.
However, unlike the original work, there are three more members this time, namely the Three Beast Warriors, Esdeath's direct subordinates.
"Alright, enough with the nonsense. The reason I've gathered you here is to form a special organization called 'Hunters.' From now on, you are members of the Hunters, special police officers in the capital."
"Um, I'd like to ask, does the capital city have a security force?"
Will spoke up at this moment, and the others looked at him as if he were an idiot.
This left Will feeling helpless, as if he had done something stupid.
“We are not like the garrison; we are an organization that specializes in handling special situations. For example, the nighttime attacks by assassination groups that are rampant in the capital right now are our primary targets.”
"Yes, I understand."
Will indicated that he had made a move, while the others each had their own thoughts, but none of them were saying anything more.
The girl with black eyes, dressed in a JK uniform, flashed a murderous intent upon hearing the name Night Raid.
She knew that her dear sister was currently in the midst of a night raid. Her greatest desire upon returning to the capital was to kill her sister, turn her into a puppet, and stay by her side forever.
"By the way, this is Kong Yang. You need to treat him the same way you treat me. He is not a member of the Hunters, but his words are my orders."
Esdeath suddenly changed the subject, looked at Kong Yang who was not far away, and directly granted him great power.
At that moment, everyone in the room except the three beast warriors looked at Kong Yang with confusion.
The others were fine, but Dr. Fashion narrowed his eyes slightly. As a smart man, he was certainly not stupid. This man had such a transcendent status, so he was definitely not simple.
"Hello, I am Kong Yang. You don't need to listen to Esdeath. I will not get involved in the affairs of the Hunters."
"Whatever you want~"
Esdeath didn't take Kong Yang's rejection to heart.
Since arriving in the capital, Kong Yang has always been like this, as if he doesn't care about anything.
The reason for this attitude is quite simple: because it's boring, they don't care about anything.
"Lord Kong Yang, this is not right. Justice cannot be neglected."
At this moment, Seryu, the messenger of justice, said to Kong Yang that there was an adorable little guy beside her.
"justice?"
"Yes, justice."
"I'm sorry, but to me, strength is justice, and victory is justice."
"What? You're defiling justice."
"Little girl, don't keep talking about justice all the time. The strong only care about their own interests; nobody cares about justice."
"you………"
Seryu was furious at Kong Yang's words, which clashed sharply with her beliefs and she absolutely could not agree with them.
But this is a gathering place for hunters, and she doesn't have the guts to make a move here.
Kong Yang didn't want to pay too much attention to this unfortunate child who had been brainwashed. She had already been physically modified and was essentially a weapon.
Unlike many of his predecessors who were willing to save this dog girl, Kong Yang had no interest in her.
Moreover, Kong Yang really had nothing to say to such a thoroughly brainwashed guy.
Chapter Eighteen: Kong Yang's Power!
Seeing Kong Yang's completely indifferent expression, Seryu was furious.
Justice was her lifelong pursuit and belief, and she would never allow anyone to tarnish or defile it.
Kong Yang, however, didn't care at all, and it was precisely this attitude that made Seryu the angrier.
As for her Imperial Arms, Kobi, if it were before, it might have already been preparing to devour this guy, but it was terrified of the man in front of it.
Seryu didn't notice, but Dr. Fashion did.
Who exactly is Kong Yang, the person who can make even biological Imperial Arms fear him?
He looks ordinary, just very handsome, but the attitudes of Esdeath and the Three Beasts prove that this man is definitely not simple.
Now that he's even afraid of biological Imperial Arms, it further confirms his thoughts.
Kong Yang stood up, stretched, and prepared to go back. He didn't want to deal with these petty squabbles; he just wanted to recover his strength as soon as possible.
After all, having your account banned is a very unpleasant experience.
"Where are you going? I haven't finished speaking yet."
Seeing Kong Yang get up to leave, Seryu subconsciously spoke up.
"Little girl, you should know when to stop."
Suddenly, a demonic pressure descended, instantly suppressing Seryu.
In that instant, Kong Yang seemed to transform into a supreme demon god, while he himself was merely an ant.
'Snap~'
Seryu collapsed to the ground, and Little Bee quickly ran over to help his master up.
The other people in the room had no idea what had happened, because what they had just experienced was a soul impact, not an aura of pressure.
Dr. Fashion laughed upon seeing this. Although he didn't know what had happened, judging from Seryu's appearance, something must have occurred.
This is so interesting; he's becoming increasingly curious about Kong Yang.
"You~you~"
Looking at Kong Yang, Seryu couldn't utter a single word.
In the end, tears even streamed down her face, and the originally serious atmosphere vanished without a trace.
Even Esdeath looked at Kong Yang with displeasure. This is still a little girl. How could you treat her like this?
As for Kong Yang himself, he didn't expect that just scaring her would make her cry. Sure enough, she's still just a child.
"Pervert~"
At that moment, Kurohime's voice came from the side.
Kong Yang looked over and saw Hei Tong sitting there, her gaze full of 'dislike' as she looked at him. In her hand, she was holding a bag of snacks with the words 'Hei Tong's Snacks' written on it.
However, Kong Yang knew that these were not ordinary snacks, but snacks mixed with special drugs.
When Kurohime was a child, she and her older sister Akame were sold to the Imperial Agency and entered the Assassin Training Institute to receive assassination training.
However, because he was not selected as one of the seven elites, he was injected with drugs to forcibly enhance his abilities, but the burden on him was also quite heavy, and he was highly dependent on the drugs and needed to take them regularly.
Furthermore, due to the effects of the drugs, she cannot be killed without cutting off her head or destroying her heart.
"Black eyes, right?"
"Oh no, I've been targeted by a pervert."
This remark immediately made Kong Yang speechless; it was far too sarcastic.
"I met someone yesterday, and I think you should know him."
"what?"
"She looks a lot like you, especially her red eyes."
Where is she?!
In an instant, the little sister who had seemed so sharp-tongued suddenly transformed into a ruthless killer.
"What, do you want to know?"
“Tell me where she is.”
Black Eyes drew Hachifusa from its sheath and placed it directly against Kong Yang's neck.
