I love time travel the most!

Gritting his teeth, he ended the endless back-and-forth.

"One-hit kill, five-vision omnipotence, Shangri-La, ten thousand miles of flight, and Ryuzu—you can actually use five Imperial Arms at the same time! This is truly unprecedented!" Esdeath looked at Kobayashi as if she were looking at some rare treasure, and couldn't help but shout, "What else do you have? Just use it all!"

"As expected of the captain..."

Kobayashi was also a little intimidated by Esdeath's high fighting spirit.

Najenda once said that defeating Esdeath would require at least 50,000 elite soldiers and more than ten Imperial Arms users to attack her, and now it seems that such an exaggerated number is indeed needed.

However, there is still a chance of winning.

“Captain, I used more than just those Imperial Arms, there was another one…” Kobayashi spread his arms, revealing the [God's Hand].

Esdeath's eyes narrowed upon seeing this, and she said coldly, "As expected, you killed the Doctor."

Once you know Kobayashi is the enemy, you can pin any blame on him, and you'll most likely be right.

Although Esdeath is a villain, she is particularly fond of her subordinates. Therefore, when she learns that a subordinate has been killed, she may say that the other party was too weak, but in reality, she will still avenge the other party.

"I won't hold back from now on, Kobayashi. Let me see just how tenacious your life force really is. Struggle as much as you want!" Esdeath made her first move.

This is exactly what Kobayashi wanted.

A close-quarters battle is inevitable, and the only way to defeat her is through sheer strength.

Therefore, Kobayashi will forcefully use all three Imperial Arms at the same time!

[One-Hit Kill], [Omnipotent Vision], [Divine Hand]

The strongest combination in melee combat!

Come on, let's get to the final climax!

Esdeath's swordsmanship is a blend of Imperial swordsmanship and her own self-developed techniques, which makes it more suitable for her style and more powerful.

The rapier kept thrusting towards Kobayashi.

Throat, chest, lower abdomen, genitals—if Kobayashi reveals even the slightest opening, Esdeath will instantly notice and thrust her rapier at him, making it extremely difficult for Kobayashi to even parry.

However, all of this eased somewhat after [Five Perspectives Omnipotence] was activated.

Being able to anticipate the opponent's offensive moves allows Kobayashi to quickly adjust himself and learn from the opponent's style.

However, Esdeath was already prepared.

Just as Kobayashi was about to read Murasame's mind and hold it up in front of him, Esdeath suddenly changed her straight thrust into a curved one. The arc attack bypassed Murasame and pierced Kobayashi's shoulder. When she pulled it out, a stream of bright red blood gushed out.

Kobayashi then realized that he could no longer read Esdeath's thoughts.

"how come……"

"What's wrong, Kobayashi?" Esdeath flicked the blood off her rapier and said haughtily, "You can't do anything about it just because I don't want anything?"

Instead of actively thinking about combat strategies, they fight automatically based on instinct?!

Xiaolin was surprised, but not flustered.

Because there are ways to deal with it.

[All-Seeing Power] Not only can it read minds, it can also predict the future, especially Esdeath's next move...

Before he could react, the rapier pierced Kobayashi's shoulder again, even stabbing him in the same wound to humiliate him.

"What?! There should have been a warning?!"

Kobayashi never expected that [Future Sight] would be completely useless. The rapier from before had actually transformed into two arcs, deceiving the Imperial Arm [Five Visions] through the rapid twitching of his muscles?!

Unbelievable, it's truly a monster!

Kobayashi knew perfectly well that this was not a difference in strength, but a difference in experience.

Having experienced countless battles, Esdeath's combat experience and talent far surpassed those of the opportunistic Kobayashi.

Esdeath wouldn't give him a chance to relive the experience.

A frenzied offensive, one after another.

"Take this! Take this! Take this!"

She has completely transformed into a battle maniac.

It's unclear whether Esdeath discovered the weakness of "All-Seeing Power," but "Future Vision" became her tool to deceive Kobayashi, using the constant shaking of her shoulder muscles to mislead him.

The rapier transformed into a curtain, enveloping him. Although Kobayashi managed to barely withstand Esdeath's attack by making minor adjustments with [God's Hand], the chilling aura contained within the rapier transformed into an ice sword that amplified its attack range, continuously adding wounds to Kobayashi's body.

"What's wrong? Counterattack! Charge in!"

"........."

Kobayashi didn't speak; he could only barely defend himself.

Gradually, Esdeath lost interest: "In the end, you're only this good. In that case, just die!"

She pushed her shoulders back, preparing for a faster and more ferocious combo, attempting to defeat Kobayashi completely.

In that instant, the flaw appeared!

"Liu Zi! Imaginary number——"

"Mokobo Temo!"

[Imaginary Switch], Ryuu only needs an instant to fully activate her gears.

How many seconds are in an instant?

The answer is 0.36 seconds!

Esdeath, who had already fully charged her energy, only needed a moment to use [Mokpatomo].

How many seconds is a moment?

The answer is 0.018 seconds!

"Your humanoid Imperial Arm never appeared, so how could I not be on guard? In the end, I still won, but I still enjoyed this battle."

In an icy world where only one person can move, Esdeath gently touches the brim of her hat and slowly walks towards Kobayashi.

"--Bye now."

The slender sword in his hand pierced through Kobayashi's chest in the next second.

however--

Just as her longsword was about to pierce through, Kobayashi's body suddenly moved, her right hand wielding the Murasame sword, which slashed through the air towards Esdeath's throat.

"what?!"

Esdeath was surprised that Kobayashi could move around inside the [Makappa], and in a moment of desperation, she turned her rapier to parry while simultaneously striking Murasame with her left hand. The powerful palm strike instantly shattered Murasame into several fragments that flew outwards.

Before she could react, Kobayashi's left hand had already groped her chest.

puff-

It pierced through the chest, and blood gushed backward.

This is much more serious than being a hooligan.

Esdeath grasped Kobayashi's left hand, her ice power erupting instantly in an attempt to freeze him completely and take him down with her, but she suddenly stopped herself and slowly melted his frozen left hand.

She gently hugged Xiaolin again, bringing him closer to her chest.

She said with satisfaction, "To be able to move around in the world of ice, Kobayashi, you're really amazing. I admit it."

"It's just that a certain goddess is too biased towards me."

At this moment, the necklace on Xiaolin's chest emitted a faint light, as if showing off that it was all thanks to it.

Esdeath said with a slight reproach, "What are you saying? Equipment is also a form of strength."

"But I also took advantage of the captain's arrogance."

"It's ok."

Even if I deceived the captain in the end?

"It's alright. This is part of your plan, so you can stand up straight."

Kobayashi didn't bring Ryuuki with him at all, because she wasn't a Teigu. If Esdeath, with her time-stopping ability, destroyed Ryuuki first, he would be truly devastated.

In the final moment, Esdeath was as broad as her heart, and Kobayashi was deeply buried within it.

"Thank you, Captain."

"Ah."

Esdeath answered softly, then fell silent in Kobayashi's arms.

"Please rest for a little while longer."

After a long pause, Kobayashi slowly picked up the already dead Esdeath. A purple light flashed by, and the two disappeared from the island.

As soon as he appeared, Liu Zi walked over.

"Master Xiaolin..."

"I am fine."

Although his body was stained with bright red blood, he was not seriously injured and only needed a little treatment.

Amidst everyone's expectant gazes, Kobayashi shouted:

"—I won!"

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!" xN

The crowd shouted loudly.

With his declaration, the corrupt empire was officially overthrown at that moment.

A new era has arrived.

Chapter 94 After Drinking...

After the death of Esdeath, the last supporter of the empire, the entire imperial forces and defenses collapsed completely, and the Axis Church quickly occupied the capital and took control of the situation.

The revolutionary army also wanted to take advantage of the situation to send troops to seize the fruits of victory.
