Inuyasha: My job stats have no limits.

After all, as long as it's interesting, isn't that enough?

As expected of a general... Riva thought to himself, in Esdeath's world, everything has only one relationship: conquest and being conquered.

The strong do not need a false peace, nor do they need pointless pity.

From this perspective, it seems that General Esdeath wanted to make the game more interesting, which is why she pressed her advantage after defeating the alien race, instead of waiting for the alien race to struggle desperately as she had done before.

The general's expectations for that young man surpassed those for the entire foreign tribe!

Liva was silent for a moment, then said, "Don't we need to worry about the others? I've received word that Niu's side is starting to make moves, and I'm afraid those guys will spoil your fun, General."

"Oh, you mean those nobles from the North?"

Esdeath chuckled, her tone tinged with disdain: "Back when I became a general and held military power, these guys only reluctantly bet their pitiful chips on me out of respect for the ministers."

"And during this time, the glory they have gained from following me in conquering foreign tribes has already given them a status and wealth that they could enjoy for generations."

In conclusion, Esdeath commented:

"They're just a bunch of hyenas. They're used to gnawing on leftovers, so they think they can sit on the table and share the meat. Whether they're nobles in the North or nobles in the capital, they all have the same greed in their bones."

"So, General, you want them..."

Riva didn't finish her sentence because Esdeath had already gotten up and walked towards the battlefield, leaving behind only her lazy words.

"After resting for so long, it's time for me to warm up."

Liva sighed and followed.

They directly used the entire Northern noble class, led by Niu, as food to feed that boy...

Can he eat it?

-

Bai Lan set off from the northern border and continued her journey. Along the way, she often encountered some dangerous creatures, but fortunately, these dangerous creatures were only about as strong as ordinary monsters, and they could be dealt with in a single strike.

Aside from the dangers and the lack of food, nothing else seemed to happen, which surprised Bai Lan.

Logically speaking, shouldn't it be that after seeing myself and Esdeath getting close, people who like Esdeath would come out and slap me in the face for showing off?

How could it not be?

However, after experiencing many things, Bai Lan finally reached the end of her journey.

—The capital city!

Bai Lan gazed at the magnificent imperial capital ahead, its towering walls and the crowds of commoners waiting to enter the city at the city gates.

Just as he was about to follow the flow of people into the city gate, a cold gun barrel was placed across his chest, and the soldier coughed a few times.

"..."

If it were someone from the border region, they would definitely be stopped at the first checkpoint.

Seeing this, Bai Lan showed no sign of stopping. She gently bumped into the soldier, causing him to stumble and almost fall.

Just as the soldier was about to get angry, three silver coins lay quietly in Bai Lan's palm.

"Hehehe, this way please, sir."

After bidding farewell to the soldiers guarding the city, Bai Lan counted the dozen or so silver coins in her purse as she walked into the capital.

-

Today's capital city may appear magnificent on the surface, but it is already rotten and decaying inside.

Countless forces clashed and fought each other in the shadows of this vast city, battling day and night in places where no light could be seen.

At the heart of this chaotic vortex lie three of the most powerful forces.

The most powerful figure was undoubtedly Ernest, the minister who used sweet words to bewitch the young emperor and firmly grasped the reins of power.

Even Esdeath had an unbreakable cooperative relationship with them; one side constantly ignited the flames of war outside, while the other continuously brought the glory of victory back to the capital.

Secondly, there is General Budo, who is known as one of the "Twin Pillars of the Empire" along with Esdeath. He holds a large army but is extremely loyal to the royal family.

Finally, there are the Imperial Arms users' assassination squads—"Night Raid"—formed by the resistance army to overthrow the corrupt rule.

For Bai Lan, if she wanted to obtain an Imperial Arms in this capital city, the first option would undoubtedly be that minister, Ernest.

Because Ernest only cares about wealth and status, and doesn't value Imperial Arms, after all, he always holds a trump card that can suppress all Imperial Arms.

"Hey, little brother, is this your first time in the capital?"

Just as Bai Lan was pondering, a hearty laugh interrupted his thoughts. Looking up, he saw a scantily clad woman with a rather provocative figure standing in front of him.

Her long, golden hair shimmered like a lion's mane in the sunlight, and among her thick hair were a pair of animal ears just like Bai Lan's. A golden belt cinched her slender waist, and below that were her shapely legs.

"I'm Leone, a local from the capital. Feel free to ask me anything you don't know!"

They're warm and hospitable locals from Beijing!

Looking at Leone's hearty laughter, Bai Lan revealed an innocent smile and honestly said.

"So it's Sister Leone. I came from the border to join the army so I can follow General Esdeath, but I don't know where to join."

He had barely stepped inside when he was spotted by 'Night Raid'.

Was it because of the three silver coins given to the gatekeeper?

Because she knew this world, Bai Lan recognized Leone in front of her at a glance.

This blonde woman is one of the Teigu users in 'Night Raid', wielding the Teigu "Beast King Transformation: Lion King".

In the original story, she used this cheerful and harmless disguise to swindle all the protagonist's gold coins, and then turned around and distributed all the money to the poor people in the slums of the capital.

"So you want to join the army, huh? Come with me, I have connections!"

Chapter 74 Stray dogs don't need tombstones; they can just run wild until they rot.

Imperial capital, palace gardens.

In the quiet garden, heavy footsteps suddenly echoed.

It sounded like the loud crash of metal armor hitting the ground, and a massive, almost exaggeratedly burly figure slowly came to a stop beside the small bridge and flowing water.

He was clad in an extremely heavy set of dark gold full-body armor, the shoulder armor as wide as two small mountains, making his figure appear even more majestic.

Just by standing there, one could vaguely sense the oppressive atmosphere before a thunderstorm.

"General Bude..."

"Speak, you people of the North, what exactly did you rely on to convince those old fogies to persuade me to take action?"

“Esdeath betrayed us in the North; she wanted to share the glory that rightfully belonged to us with the rest of the scum.”

Niu of the Three Beasts knelt on one knee: "We need the Great General to help us kill this guy. Therefore, we in the North are willing to cooperate with the Great General to fight against Minister Ernest and Esdeath."

"Hmph, what glory do you bunch of trash have to speak of? You're nothing but a bunch of parasites clinging to Esdeath."

General Bud bluntly stated, "Don't talk about betrayal. It's clearly you bunch of wild dogs who are dissatisfied with your current environment. Esdeath is just blocking your way."

Niu looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Fortunately, General Bude did not continue speaking, but instead said calmly.

"Alright, I understand... I will personally kill that guy named 'Bai Lan'!"

"Although this guy is Esdeath's pet, the fact that he can fight Esdeath for several rounds shows that he is no ordinary person. He is probably a lost Imperial Arms user. Please be careful, General."

After speaking, Niu hesitated for a moment before revealing the information she knew: "Minister Ernest seems to know about this as well. He is very curious about Bai Lan and has sent troops to search for her."

General Bud turned and left, leaving behind only calm words.

"Remember, trying to be subservient to both me and Esdeath at the same time... will only lead to disaster. Don't blame me for not warning you!"

-

Grey Sparrow Tavern.

As soon as he sat down, Leone brazenly ordered the owner to bring several servings of wheat juice.

"Don't be shy, treat this place like your own village!"

Seeing that Bai Lan seemed a little reserved, Leone patted him on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

"Alcohol is the best key to getting people talking. Drink as much as you can. If you can get one of my buddies in the army drunk, everything else will be easier to handle!"

"Let alone becoming a member of the Imperial Capital Guard, becoming a personal guard under General Esdeath is not impossible!"

"I wholeheartedly agree with that!" Bai Lan said with some emotion. After all, wasn't it just like that in her previous life? Talk about work? No time. You want to talk about drinking? There's always time. So-called work can be done anytime while drinking.

"But Leone, how long until your friend who joined the army arrives?"

"It won't be long, let's drink first, let's drink first..."

"Cool!"

Leone sipped a glass of wheat juice, let out a satisfied "ha," and slammed the glass onto the table.

For a moment, her bulging chest began to tremble, making it impossible to look away.

Bai Lan, honest and simple, glanced inadvertently at Leone's belt, where [Endless Greed] was cheering.

Plunder! Plunder! Plunder! Plunder!

Okay, I understand.

To others, the capital city is an abyss, but in Bai Lan's eyes, it is a treasure trove.

Imperial Arms are everywhere, allowing not only to be looted but also to be transformed into Imperial Arms Users.

After this dungeon run, maybe even the [Raiders] can reach the maximum level.

The next choice is quite simple...

Leone casually chatted with Bai Lan about interesting things in the capital, while constantly clinking glasses with her.

Just three minutes later.

boom!

Bai Lan lay on the table and fell into a deep sleep.

"That's it? I haven't even served one dish yet." The owner looked speechless as he held up a plate of braised beef.
