Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

In just a few years, she made great achievements on the battlefield and killed countless people.

It was precisely because of her undeniable talent in warfare that she rightfully rose to the position of Grand General of the Imperial Capital.

But she was not interested in gold or other valuables, nor in her position as a general.

Each time she returned from the battlefield, she would generously and without reservation distribute the rewards bestowed upon her by the emperor to her soldiers.

In a sense, Esdeath joined the Imperial Army not for fame or fortune.

Rather, it's to better satisfy a certain desire deep within oneself.

That desire is called "conquest".

Over the years, Esdeath has shown no interest in anything outside of war.

Aside from the battlefield, interrogating enemies was one of her few hobbies.

But this woman, who is as cold as ice, is now saying she wants to be in a relationship?

The young emperor and Ernest exchanged glances.

—It's like the sun has risen in the west.

"what happened?"

Noticing the strange behavior of the two people on the steps, Esdeath looked up and asked.

"No...nothing, that's true," the young emperor chuckled. "The general is at such a beautiful age, yet still single. It's time to find a good husband...what do you think of the minister?"

"Wait, Your Majesty...?"

Ernest was taken aback by what he heard.

This little brat is so unreasonable!

Although that woman has a stunning figure and looks, how can I possibly handle her sadistic personality?!

If it's just a bad personality, that's fine; it can be gradually corrected through training.

But her strength is evident to the whole country, who can suppress her?

This campaign against the northern barbarians was also successful; the enemy was defeated in just a few months, and 400,000 enemy soldiers were buried alive.

However, before Ernest could refuse, Esdeath politely declined the young emperor's offer.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I suffer from high blood pressure and am obese. I might die any day now."

"General, how rude of you! I am perfectly healthy!"

Ernest was very unhappy, and took another piece of meat from his plate and put it in his mouth.

"So what kind of man do you like, General?" the young emperor asked curiously.

Esdeath thought for a moment.

"My type... well, that's a long story. I haven't found anyone I like yet. I'll write a formal document for you another day."

“That’s true,” the young emperor nodded. “The general is unparalleled in the world. How could an ordinary man be worthy of you? Then I will wait.”

……

After the audience, Esdeath and Ernest walked through the palace.

"It's strange, though, that I'm interested in things other than war and killing."

Esdeath's icy blue eyes sparkled with curiosity.

"You mean about love?" Ernest asked.

"Yeah, I'm puzzled myself, I don't know why I feel this way."

"Haha, how old is the general?"

"23 is old."

“That’s right,” Ernest said. “As biological beings, it’s perfectly normal to have a need for the opposite sex; it’s the reproductive instinct ingrained in human genes…”

“Is that so? Is this an instinct of being born human?” Esdeath closed her eyes. “But never mind, let’s talk about that matter in more detail. That’s why I specially rode a flying beast back.”

"Indeed, General, are you familiar with 'night raids'?"

"Night raid? I've heard of it. It seems to be an assassin organization that's been active in the capital, right?"

“That’s right. They’ve been committing atrocities in the capital, and they’ve become increasingly arrogant lately. Just this morning, the body of the capital’s garrison captain was found in his home, and even my distant cousin was murdered last night.”

At this point, Ernest's eyes welled up with tears.

"Is it confirmed?"

“That’s right, those rebels even left ‘night raid’ markings at the scene.” Ernest tore into raw meat with a sinister look in his eyes. “My poor cousin, who always served the people, ended up like this!”

"I see. They're all Imperial Arms users, and a group specifically targeting the upper echelons of the Imperial Capital. Oh well, there's no war to fight right now, so I'll play along with them. Hopefully, it won't get too boring."

“Well, General Esdeath, I happen to have a plan.” Ernest smiled slyly.

After a few minutes of conversation, Esdeath understood the minister's intention.

"I see, so you're using Imperial Arms users to fight against Imperial Arms users?"

“That’s right, those people are in the shadows, and ordinary soldiers can’t do anything to them.”

Esdeath's lips curved into a beautiful smile. "Then we'll need to increase the number of Imperial Arms users. I happen to be recruiting new subordinates soon, so leave this to me. Perhaps I can enjoy the thrill of the hunt."

"That's really reassuring."

Seeing Esdeath's aggressive gaze, Ernest smiled with satisfaction.

That's right, Esdeath has absolutely no interest in power and politics.

War and the ravages of the enemy were everything to this woman.

In other words, as long as I still hold power, Esdeath can do whatever she wants with violence.

And she will assist him in this...

Hehe, what a win-win situation!

Once those venomous snakes hiding in the shadows disappear from the "night raid," he can rest easy.

……

afternoon.

Inside a bookstore on a street in the capital.

The storefront was deserted. Lubbock was nestled in his recliner, checking today's afternoon report over and over again.

The newspaper's cover was dominated by a large headline.

—Ou Jia, captain of the Imperial Capital Garrison, was confirmed dead at home. The perpetrator is suspected to be the nighttime attacker.

"That kid... he's pretty good!"

Lubbock clicked his tongue in admiration.

Just then, the shop door was pushed open.

Lubbock folded up the newspaper: "Welcome light... How come it's you?!"

"Can't I come?" Lu Ye's expression was very unpleasant.

"Sure, sure, but no one's following you, right?"

“Someone is waiting for me outside, but that’s fine.” Lu Ye sighed. “I’m here to ask you something.”

"Come this way then, I also have something I want to ask you."

Chapter 191 Passionate Seleu

The row of bookshelves behind the bookstore counter is actually a secret passage.

Lubbock broke off the red book on the far left of the third row, and the bookcase slowly slid open to the side, revealing the passageway inside.

The passageway was short, ending at a spacious room fully furnished.

On the sofa sat a woman whom Lu Ye knew.

—Leonai.

"Hi!" she greeted Lu Ye with a smile. "Well done! Oja and Gamal have both been taken down. This has caused quite a stir in the city. Now the streets are full of police officers."

“I’m curious how you killed them,” Lubbock said curiously. “Gamay’s bodyguards, including those security guards, are all dead. Did you do it all by yourself?”

“No, I didn’t kill Oujia either,” Lu Ye said, looking somewhat haggard.

"Who is that?!" Lubbock's interest was piqued.

"We've taken advantage of someone who has a grudge against those two; they might become our allies in the future."

"Really? Then I'll have to be the one to check it out carefully!" Leone said earnestly.

"Is this what they call using someone else to do the dirty work?" Lubbock pondered. "But to kill so many people, that guy must be really strong, right?"

“That person is a Teigu user,” Lu Ye said. “More importantly… I want to ask you, did the team carry out other missions while I was on duty? I heard from the guard that a high-ranking official in the capital was killed, and his entourage was also cut in half at the waist.”

“Yes, everyone except you and Mine was mobilized,” Lubbock said. “Didn’t you notice that Akame isn’t here? After completing her mission, she heard about Oja and Gamal’s deaths here and then went back.”

“The target was a distant relative of Minister Ernest,” Leone added. “That man, using the minister’s name, forcibly abducted women and beat them to death. He deserves divine punishment, and his guards were accomplices.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye frowned slightly.

This is getting a bit complicated.

No wonder I received orders directly from higher-ups while I was in the security force.

Strengthen security around the capital, especially in the upper district.

Thanks to this, Lu Ye's plan to return to the night raid headquarters will have to be postponed for another day or two.

If it were someone else, that minister probably wouldn't have taken such drastic action.

However, the fact that the night raid team killed a distant relative of Minister Ernest made him feel directly threatened.

According to intelligence obtained from the security forces, the woman named Esdeath has returned to the Imperial Capital.

She has quelled the war in the north and will likely stay in the capital for the rest of the time.
