He nodded subconsciously.

But he quickly realized what was happening and rubbed his fists against Hill's head.

The slums have fairy tales about gods who can grant any wish and help people escape poverty, hunger, and slavery.

As children grow a little older and witness the dark slums of the capital, they won't believe it and will only treat it as an absurd story.

It's hard to imagine that Hill could trust the other party so easily.

She really is a naturally ditzy, glasses-wearing girl.

Leone thought to herself.

"Imperial Arms with contract attributes, and Imperial Arms with spatial attributes..."

Brand, a burly man, had a solemn expression.

Within the Night Raid organization, he is considered a key combatant, possessing the Imperial Arm [Demon's Embrace] with armor attributes. He was once an Imperial soldier, known as the Hundred-Man Slayer.

Even Esdeath, the empire's strongest general, would find it difficult to defeat him easily.

Upon hearing Leonai's description,

Even Brand found it difficult; he couldn't control two Imperial Arms at the same time.

Chapter 403 Tatsumi

Because each Imperial Arms is extremely powerful, it requires mental energy.

Take [Demon Possessed] for example. It is an armor-type Imperial Arms. Wearing it is extremely burdensome. Ordinary people may be crushed or even killed by the Imperial Arms.

Only Brand's well-trained body could handle it.

If he were to control [Possessed by Demons] while simultaneously coming into contact with another Imperial Arm,

They would likely suffer a complete physical and mental breakdown.

There are only two possibilities for a mysterious merchant who can wield two Imperial Arms simultaneously.

One possibility is that the other party has some method to reduce the burden on the Imperial Arms.

Another possibility is that the mysterious merchant's strength is comparable to that of Esdeath, the strongest in the empire.

In Brand's mind,

If we're talking about creatures who can truly wield two Imperial Arms, then Esdeath, that monster, is probably the only one left!

"No matter what, we need to keep an eye on the mysterious businessman's movements and report any news immediately!"

Akame, who had been sitting in the corner with her katana in her arms and a cold expression, finally gave her conclusion.

When Captain Najenda is not around,

This girl with long, straight black hair, a cold expression, and a delicate porcelain doll-like appearance is the acting captain of the entire Night Raid organization.

One,

Akame possesses exceptional mission completion abilities. Having received training as an Imperial assassin, she can perfectly complete assassination missions at any time, earning her the title of Night Raid's ace.

In terms of combat strength, Brand is very strong, but in terms of the ability to carry out assassination missions, Akame is the strongest in the entire Revolutionary Army.

Its Imperial Arm, Murasame, is known as a cursed sword; it can be infused with a cursed poison and instantly kill an enemy upon contact with their blood.

Second,

It is because Akame is able to discard superfluous emotions and not be burdened by unnecessary thoughts, and can make calm judgments at any time.

If Najenda dies unexpectedly, the black-haired, red-eyed, icy girl will be the next captain of Night Raid.

"understand!"

Even the usually carefree Lubbock showed a rare serious expression.

He was well aware of the mystery merchant's importance to the night raid.

If the other party is a free agent, Najenda would probably be very excited and would be willing to pay any price to recruit them into the Revolutionary Army and Night Raid.

If the mysterious merchant is an agent of the Empire, then he is Night Raid's strongest enemy after Esdeath, and a target who needs to be executed.

Lubbock volunteered, "Leave the reconnaissance and surveillance to me!"

The others had no objections.

Lubbock, with his short green hair and youthful attire, possesses the rare linear Teigu [Cross Tail], which can deploy various traps and barriers, making it ideal for reconnaissance and surveillance missions.

Brand narcissistically tossed his thick, cylindrical bangs and teased, "You're really full of energy, Lubbock!"

"Humph."

Lubbock did not respond, but his face flushed slightly.

He did want to capture the mysterious merchant, not because of the Revolutionary Army, but for Najendan.

As long as Najenda is happy, she would be willing to do anything, even venture into the capital alone, let alone become a mysterious merchant.

"Time's up, let's get started!"

Akame stared at the pendulum clock embedded in the wall.

The moment the long and short brass pointers aligned, the hotel door was pushed open.

The cross tails spread out, and the threads extended like a spider web, clinging to the eaves and walls along the way, like a conveyor belt, allowing the Night Raid members to move swiftly in the pitch-black night.

……

"How lucky I am! Not only was I treated to a meal by the businessman, but I was also taken in by the young lady."

He was plain-looking, plain-looking, and even his personality was like that of a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

Tatsumi bowed apologetically to Aria's family and Fang Yi.

"No need to thank me. You helped me out of a predicament, so I'm treating you to dinner. It's just a mutually beneficial arrangement."

In the luxurious living room, Fang Yi sat calmly on the expensive leather sofa, waving his hand with a smile.

After separating from Leone,

Following procedure, Fang Yi handed the envelope containing the letter requesting an audience with the Imperial Ministers and the Emperor to the military's messenger office.

And they have to pay a considerable sum of money.

This was a decision made by the imperial ministers. As long as wealthy people and merchants in the capital were willing to pledge allegiance to the emperor, they could pay a large sum of money and thus gain the right to meet the young emperor and themselves.

It's not about showing compassion for the people.

They simply wanted to win over the wealthy class so that it would be easier to exploit the lower-class slaves and commoners.

Who knew that the army messenger, after receiving the envelope, would demand a kickback from Fang Yi?

Before Fang Yi could take out his money,

Tatsumi suddenly appeared, a hotheaded young man like a righteous partner, loudly criticizing others and attracting a crowd to watch.

Fearing things would escalate, the messenger reluctantly threw the envelope into the carriage and was then led into the palace by his colleagues.

Although Leone is not there,

However, Tatsumi was still swindled out of all his money and was starving. Fang Yi naturally treated him to a meal as a way of thanking him for his act of bravery.

I just didn't expect,

The plot has deviated from the original story. The wealthy family still encounters Tatsumi, and even the white-haired Astolfo is targeted by Aria.

"Your name is Afu? You have such beautiful, smooth hair, and it's a rare white color."

Arya suppressed the jealousy and madness in her eyes, revealing a gentle smile, and reached out to touch Alfred's hair.

Afu slightly turned his body to avoid her outstretched hand.

This scene,

Arya almost lost control of her inner beast, but she forced a smile and said, "Gentlemen, there are assassin organizations operating in the capital. It's not safe to go out at night. Why don't you stay here?"

She wanted to skin her alive, she wanted to torture her…

She was just a lowly commoner, yet she was so beautiful, with a full head of soft white hair.

You have to pluck out every single hair, one by one!

"Alright."

Fang Yi's smile remained unchanged, and he nodded slightly.

There are still two days until the imperial ministers' meeting to receive the wealthy and businessmen; there is no difference between staying in a hotel and staying in this grand villa.

and,

According to the course of fate, several Imperial Arms users will soon appear, and at that time, it will be possible to make a deal with them.

"Little sister Afu, this is the best cake in the capital. If you eat it and go to sleep, you'll have beautiful dreams."

The veins on his forehead, hidden by his hair, bulged, but his face still wore a gentle smile.

Arya brought over a plate of cake and handed it to the gluttonous Afu.

Eat, eat quickly!

Arya screamed wildly in her mind.

The cake contains a slow-acting, deadly toxin; the victim will struggle in agony before dying.

She longed to see Afu wail in pain.

"..."

Afu ignored her, but took the cake and devoured it in no time.

The taste was just average, not as delicious as I had imagined.

toxin?

Even the most potent poisons from the Gourmet Hunter world couldn't harm Afu in the slightest, let alone ordinary toxins from the [Tier 1] world.

"It is an honor to meet you. Your views are very insightful and have been of great help to me."
