Living your daily life in a shonen anime seems to be wrong.

Moreover, ministers are not so easy to deal with, especially since the empire still has its foundation. That General Bude, and other generals, are not weak either.

There is also Esdeath.

That girl is amazing; even Qiye couldn't break her technique of freezing time and space.

After all, even a powerful ability like space can only retreat when faced with an ability like time.

Time is very unreasonable.

Time can turn black hair white and beautiful women wither away; time can make strong young people grow old and weak children grow strong; time can change things and stars, and time can also turn the sea into mulberry fields.

In the long river of time, with no beginning and no end, countless things are born and destroyed, destroyed and born again.

Even the world.

In the face of time, even the seemingly boundless universe may one day be destroyed.

Therefore, Nanaya was unable to counter Esdeath's abilities.

However, Esdeath is not a true time-manipulation user; she only has a technique that can freeze time and space, rather than controlling time itself.

Ultimately, she can't even be considered a true ability user.

It is very powerful, though.

However, this strength is only relative, and Qi Ye did not find her difficult to deal with.

Let's leave that aside for now.

"In short, Hei Tong, from today onwards you will accept my guidance (training), and I will also help you regulate your body. In the future, don't rely on those random drugs, they won't do you any good. If you're going to take any drugs, take mine."

That's what Qiye said.

Kurohime didn't seem to mind; she was just eating a bag of cookies.

As long as there's food, that's fine.

Isn't the purpose of life simply to eat, drink, and have fun?

The rulers of the empire now are just indulging in eating, drinking, and merrymaking. Of course, their merrymaking is somewhat depraved, but their fundamental purpose is the same: to make themselves happy.

Having food makes me happy.

At least that's the case for Kurohime right now.

She is not like Qiye.

In her heart, food occupies a large proportion, second only to her older sister Akame.

In Qiye's mind, it is estimated that "loli" accounts for more than 99% of his thoughts.

Then there are notebooks.

Others?

It doesn't matter, and it doesn't exist anyway.

"So come on, take off your clothes first, let your big brother give you a thorough check-up, hehehehe..."

"..."

……

Qiye is a hands-off manager who doesn't care about anything.

Chelsea and Mine were in charge; they were both radicals who valued efficiency and speed.

Therefore, Jinrui City is now operating at full speed.

The factory workers worked in shifts, and the machines ran day and night to produce various weapons and equipment.

Guns, artillery, and so on.

That's enough. After all, this place is different from the ninja world. The ninja world has ninja troops that can crush ordinary armies wielding cold weapons, so they need a lot of weapons.

However, although there are some firearms here, they are only the equipment of a small number of elite troops of the empire. Overall, the army's equipment is still mainly cold weapons.

War, too, still involves armies of tens or hundreds of thousands of people lining up their formations to attack each other.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing.

At least for Jinrui City, if the Imperial Army dares to field hundreds of thousands of troops in front of them, a single artillery barrage could inflict heavy losses on the enemy, or even cause their entire army to collapse.

Of course, this is an optimistic view.

At present, the Workers' and Peasants' Army in Jinrui City has only more than 10,000 men, most of whom are still infantrymen and cannot afford artillery.

Moreover, resource reserves are somewhat insufficient.

"Therefore, what is urgently needed right now are soldiers and resources."

Chelsea approached Mine to discuss the matter.

She also had some admiration for Mine, a girl in her teens, after all, she wanted to rebel at such a young age...

No, I want to do things for the common people of the world.

Moreover, despite his young age and lack of experience as a Teigu user, he was still able to subdue the soldiers and even defeat hundreds of them with his bare hands.

This is comparable to those who use Imperial Arms.

More importantly, their military thinking far surpasses that of the generals in this world. After all, they were trained by Qi Ye and had already moved beyond the methods of cold weapon warfare, without even a transition period, going straight into warfare with hot weapons.

Furthermore, Mine was very interested in firearms.

Recently, she has been practicing with a gun frequently, and she can't dodge any target, whether it's flying in the sky, swimming in the water, or running on the ground, whether it's a static or dynamic target.

Let's leave that aside for now.

"Resources are manageable; the empire itself is mining various resources, but it just can't utilize them effectively. We can seize them. But manpower is not something that can be achieved overnight. Do you have any ideas?"

Chelsea asked.

After much deliberation, Mine seemed to have made up her mind.

"Secretly reveal my identity."

"identity?"

Chelsea paused for a moment.

She wasn't very clear about this; neither Nanaya nor Mine had mentioned it before.

The comical hero...

Okay, let's not talk about this anymore.

Now, Mine thinks that was a complete black mark on her past, something utterly ridiculous, and now it really has become a complete ridiculous joke.

It's all Qiye's fault.

"In short, Comical Man, secretly reveal that I am Comical Man to attract others to join us."

"A farce? You're the legendary Farce Hero?"

"Is there...is there a problem? I can prove my identity."

"No, no problem."

Chelsea shook her head.

Then she looked at Mine, her eyes seeming to sparkle a little.

"I never expected you to be the clown. It was because I heard about your deeds and obtained the Imperial Arm that I decided to take down the governor."

"?"

"I originally wanted to be a noblewoman, but I never expected that the governor was such a disgusting person. He even used hunting humans to curry favor with people. After I got the Imperial Arm, I killed him. You guys came the next day."

I gave a brief explanation.

After killing the governor, she wanted to find the Revolutionary Army, but unexpectedly, Nanaya and Mine arrived the next day. After Nanaya asked her name, he handed over all the government affairs to her.

She couldn't quite understand this, since Qi Ye seemed to trust her too much, even though he didn't know her very well.

Let's leave that aside for now.

She couldn't help but sigh when the topic turned to wealthy women.

"Actually, I wanted to become a wealthy lady and enjoy life, but I never expected that I would have to do so many things now... I feel like I've even lost weight recently!"

As he said this, he stretched.

Mine simply stared blankly at her chest with a sidelong glance.

Even if she's thin, she's still bigger than mine.

But she's still young, there's still hope, she might grow up to be very big.

Speaking of which, does Nanaya prefer big or small?

Perhaps it's small?

No, no, no, that's not important, let's not talk about that now.

"In short, Jinrui City has now stabilized, and we can expand outwards. Of course, following Brother Qiye's advice, we can start by targeting those villages and gain their support."

"That's natural."

"in addition……"

"..."

Chapter 306: Together...

evening.

After finishing their work, Mine and Chelsea went to the shrine together.

In the living room, they saw a little girl who was eating. It was the first time they had ever met this little girl.

"This is Black Eyes."

Let me introduce myself while sitting at the table.
