Inuyasha: My job stats have no limits.

But this isn't the meal I wanted!

"Sister... what was that just now? No way, that's not something a human could do."

Even now, just thinking back to what happened before still leaves Kurohime deeply shaken.

The attack frequency was far too high, even leaving afterimages, completely disregarding the law of conservation of mass!

"...I don't know either. If it's just humans, then the reserves are really outrageous."

"I can only say that I did see scenes of training dangerous species during the hunt, but it was far less impressive than Bai Lan's."

Akame sighed softly, "So tired, everything is tiring..."

Outside the room, Chelsea leaned against the door, a lollipop in her mouth, lost in thought. It seems I'm not the only one with nothing to lose...

At least I can still stand, Black Eyes... *splatter*

All I can say is that they're so cute.

On the sixth day of the first year of the new calendar, the emperor opened the national treasury to repair the imperial artifacts of Emperor Gao and replenish the military forces.

On the seventh day of the first year of the new calendar, General Esdeath met with Anningdao and declared that she would completely wipe out the resistance army for the Second Empire, thus demonstrating her loyalty.

On the same day, General Bud, not to be outdone, led the Imperial Guard, the newly formed First Army Corps, and the Thirteen Traitors Division, totaling over 100,000 men, to attack from both sides alongside General Esdeath.

On the tenth day of the first year of the new calendar, the resistance forces, not wanting to fall behind, used their strategic Imperial Arms to quickly leave General Esdeath and General Budo behind.

On the same day, the Night Raid members, led by Brand, who were in prison, were filled with remorse and were willing to surrender to the Empire. The Emperor, disregarding past grievances, offered them official ranks.

Night Raid members Mine and Hill, knowing their sins were grave, wished to become the Emperor's maids.

The emperor was pleased and did not leave his palace for eight days.

The 18th day of the first year of the Gregorian calendar.

When the rebel army of a million men besieged the city!

—The emperor emerged from the pass and single-handedly confronted an army of a million!

......

"Boom!"

Gray clouds shrouded the sky above the capital, and lightning bolts darted like silver snakes across a black sea.

As the white branches streaked across the sky, a torrential downpour began.

A figure sat on the city wall, raindrops falling from the sky wetting his long, silvery-white hair.

"We've finally met."

Najendan gestured for the troops behind her to form battle formations, then walked past everyone to the city gate, raised her head, and solemnly said.

"This should be our second meeting, right?"

"nature."

"I doubt anyone could have imagined that the last time we met you you were just a small captain, but this time you are the ruler of the empire."

"I remember you have some ability, would you like to come and help me with some tasks?"

“I am grateful for Your Majesty’s trust, but Rong Xitan refuses.”

Najendan simply shook her head; she had to lead all the rebels to their deaths—that was the only thing she could do now.

"However, it seems that His Majesty has a broad mind that embraces all things, so I don't need to worry about those fools."

After she finished speaking, she silently stepped back.

Once the battle formation was arranged, Najenda suddenly roared.

"All troops, listen to my command: Attack the city!"

As the roar echoed, military orders were transmitted rapidly to all units, and the army surged forward like a tidal wave.

Dozens of elite dangerous species kept by the rebels strode heavily, attempting to smash the city gate with their massive bodies.

In addition, there were specially made giant battering rams and siege ladders.

"Hmph, knowing full well that the Supreme Imperial Arms is right behind me, instead of retreating, you're walking towards me?"

Bai Lan stood up and smoothed her long, silvery-white hair back.

He drew the [Heavenly Feather Blade], and golden lightning suddenly burst forth along the blade, creeping inch by inch along the edge of the blade.

With a casual swing of his sword, the Thunder Roar Cannon erupted with blinding light, instantly engulfing the three oncoming Special-Grade Dangerous Species without leaving even ashes.

The armor of [Thunder God's Wrath] silently appeared, using the Imperial Arms as a medium to draw upon heavenly thunder, which merged with the lightning he himself summoned, forming a vast and continuous lightning net in the air.

—A lightning strike is coming!

Boom!!!

A tremendous roar resounded between heaven and earth, and the special-grade dangerous species, along with thousands of soldiers, were instantly reduced to dust.

Before the enemy could react, Bai Lan charged straight into the enemy camp, her Heavenly Feather Blade gleaming with a golden light.

The heavily armored troops at the forefront of the battle formation suffered heavy casualties in an instant. Ordinary equipment, even heavy armor, became extremely fragile when facing supernatural power, no different from paper.

With a thunderous roar, a sword was drawn and slashed, and countless soldiers were cut in half at the waist, their severed limbs and remains scattered all over the ground.

"Teigu users, move out! Keep the Emperor occupied!"

Najendan was also roaring.

The remaining seven or eight Teigu users of the resistance looked at each other, but under pressure, they still gritted their teeth and went forward.

"Courage deserves praise, but it's too late!"

Bai Lan pointed one finger to the sky, and at that moment the sky seemed to be torn open, with golden lightning pouring down from the crack.

Like divine punishment descending from the heavens, lightning and rain intertwined, enveloping the entire battlefield in a blinding golden-white light. Even Bai Lan herself was briefly swallowed up by that light.

The earth trembled from the thunderous explosion, golden lightning shot into the sky, and charred flesh flew everywhere.

However, when the lightning dissipated, Bai Lan was unharmed, and only a few Imperial Arms users remained around her, their gazes towards Bai Lan filled with horror.

Even when Najendan urged them to continue, they lacked the courage and instead angrily rebuked her.

"Are you crazy?!"

"You go ahead and do it, I'm not going to throw my life away!"

Ignoring the surrounding arguments, Bai Lan slowly crouched down, sheathed the blade at her waist, and assumed the starting stance for drawing her sword. The lightning on the Tenyu Habakiri continued to burn, and golden arcs of electricity repeatedly leaped along the blade.

In the next instant, Bai Lan's figure vanished, leaving only a zigzag golden arc on the field, rapidly winding its way through the crowd and the shield formation, moving through the army at a speed far exceeding the limits of vision.

A sharp sound, like steel being torn apart, echoed. Almost simultaneously, dozens of heavy shields shattered along the way, and the necks of hundreds of people were easily severed.

Upon witnessing this scene, the heavily armored troops, intended to serve as the front line, instantly lost their willpower and scattered in screams.

--monster!

There's no way to defeat such a monster!

Each strike could take away hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of people. Even the pampered Imperial Arms users in the resistance were useless against this new emperor and were easily killed just like them.

In the midst of the battle, looking at the defeated front-line soldiers, Najendan's expression was extremely solemn. During the Battle of Anning Road, Bai Lan did not lift a finger, but scared everyone away with just her words.

She initially rated Bai Lan as roughly equivalent to Susanoo, who was 'manifested as a calamity spirit,' probably only below the strongest.

After all, someone who can become the captain of the 'Night Raid Special Forces' must be quite capable.

But now it seems... I was being far too unrealistic!

"Oh? It's already starting to crumble?"

Just as Bai Lan was about to begin the second battle, she noticed that even the nearest soldiers were more than ten meters away from her.

He immediately felt bored and returned to the city wall, sitting on the city gate.

Behind Bai Lan stood Akame, Kurome, Will, and Borus, formerly of Night Raid and the Thirteenth Division of Betrayer.

Akame felt a pang of pity.

"With unwavering resolve, Akame!"

Najendan said softly, "As always, now that you've chosen your path, you must stick to it."

"It seems my sister really likes you! Then let's turn you into a doll, so my sister won't be sad!"

Black Eyes raised the [March of the Dead - Eight Rooms], and seven puppets of different shapes silently appeared behind her, while in the air further behind, a huge tiger-shaped silhouette was slowly solidifying.

That was the Crimson Roaring Tiger, a super dangerous species, that Bai Lan personally hunted down for her when she accused Bai Lan of betrayal.

And further away.

"I am Bude, and I will never allow you to harm a single hair on my lord's head!"

A figure sped towards them from afar, and before the figure even arrived, a powerful voice rang out.

"Ah, what a delightful war!"

Esdeath slowly walked over, holding the Sword of Glory, her icy blue eyes brimming with barely suppressed excitement.

Behind him, more than 50,000 ice cavalrymen followed slowly, without uttering a word.

"Let the battle knight order, composed of fifty thousand ice cavalry, burn the rebels to ashes!"

"Let the world know what war is!"

Chapter 107 The Corpse Speaks

Outside the capital city at this time.

Compared to the densely packed, surging figures of the resistance fighters.

The empire had only a few dozen people, but the oppression it brought was far more exaggerated than that of a million people.

It could even be said that Bai Lan and her dozen or so men surrounded the million-strong resistance army, since each of these dozen or so men was capable of changing the course of a battle on their own.

Najenda looked at the Empire's impressive lineup and even stopped breathing, almost suffocating.

"...This is a complete extermination!"
