Infinite Transmigration Starting from Violet

After all, the guards all knew that Zank, the decapitator, had once been an executioner in prison.

The person who could become the executioner in that prison must have been quite skilled.

With the added assistance of the Imperial Arms, they become even more difficult to deal with.

Everyone has been feeling a bit down lately.

Firstly, Captain Oja was killed by bandits.

Secondly, it could be that Zanke, who was beheaded, has returned to the underworld and is committing crimes again.

Normally, the capital city is peaceful and stable.

Although there are occasional incidents of arson, murder, and looting, they are quickly resolved.

As for the darker things, those are beyond the reach of these lowly guards.

But the two things mentioned above are different.

Although their nature is similar to those shady dealings, their influence is so great that it can cause riots in the capital.

The citizens were filled with anxiety.

If even the captain of the garrison has been killed, then it would be easy for anyone to kill these ordinary people.

Is this not?

No sooner had Ojak felt a chill than Zank, a master at chopping off people's heads, appeared right behind him!

As a result, the members of the security team have been working overtime to the point of exhaustion these past few days.

Everyone was extremely busy, with increased patrols and extended patrol times.

What's even more frustrating is that they can't find any clues at all.

At present, all that Oujia can confirm is that the crime was committed by someone he knows.

This wasn't because the guards were incompetent, but because someone was sabotaging them.

This person was neither Lu Ye nor the righteously twisted Seryu, but rather one of Ou Jia's "confidants".

Although they submitted to Oja during his lifetime.

But after Oja died, these people were most afraid of having the truth about Oja's death revealed.

Leaving aside other matters for now.

Over the years, they have received a lot of bribes, and they have also received protection from Oujah when they did bad things.

So it wasn't because they were afraid that the person who killed Oja was a master and would cause them trouble.

Rather, with Oja's death, the investigation will inevitably uncover his vast fortune.

Because he is no longer alive, the things Ou Jia did will come to light, and they will be implicated.

To prevent this from happening, these guys have been obstructing the investigation, transferring and dividing the assets while destroying and covering up evidence of Oja's crimes, doing everything they can to prevent the investigation from continuing.

Thanks to this, Oja's body has not yet been cremated; if it weren't frozen in ice, it would have rotted and smelled terrible long ago.

Zank the Decapitator is a prime example of someone who appears and disappears like a dragon, seemingly without warning.

This is truly due to the lack of competence among the members of the security force.

After all, most of them were ordinary people with extraordinary martial arts skills, and they couldn't even touch the hem of Zank's clothes.

In conclusion, this can be described as "silent until it speaks, then it astounds everyone."

These two matters weighed heavily on the shoulders of the guards.

The urging from high-ranking officials in the capital made them anxious and uneasy.

Lu Ye's appearance greatly helped relieve the stress of these people.

Zank's death successfully calmed the public's anxieties.

Although the person who killed Captain Oja has not yet been found, officials have already spread the message that "Oja was killed by Zank".

This is a case of killing two birds with one stone.

It was precisely because of this incident that many people changed their opinion of Lu Ye.

I initially thought he was just a newcomer with no real skills.

But who could have imagined that Lu Ye would suddenly create such a big news story?

He single-handedly killed Zank!

You should know that guy stole the Warden's Imperial Arm.

For someone who wants to fight, having Imperial Arms and not having Imperial Arms are two different things.

Therefore, in the eyes of the members of the guard, the most powerful among them, apart from Seryu who has the Teigu, is this kid from the countryside. He is usually gentle and greets everyone, making him hard to dislike. He is also favored by several older unmarried beauties in the guard. Unexpectedly, he is also so ruthless when it comes to killing, even taking down a ruthless character like Zank.

So before the meal, someone asked Lu Ye, "You grew up in the countryside, so you seem quite skilled at chopping people up?"

Lu Ye thought for a moment and replied very seriously that, in fact, no matter what it is, as long as it involves killing, it's all the same.

Killing someone is no different from killing a pig; aim for the heart or the head, and it's over in one stab.

The only difference is that the former is the same kind of person as you, while the latter is not.

A murderer can understand the emotions of the victim, but probably not a pig.

The conversation ended abruptly; Lu Ye didn't say anything more, and the other person didn't ask.

But everyone actually knows the truth.

How easy is it to kill someone?

A living person can be killed with a single cut to the throat without much effort.

Pigs are similar; although they might struggle for a while after their throats are cut, they will eventually die.

Although the word "kill" makes no difference to life.

But for humans, it is heavier than imagined.

So when that person asked Lu Ye this question, Lu Ye remembered Isshin Ashina and Ape, as well as what Bright had said before.

Killing is not the problem.

How to kill and why to kill are the most important things.

Zank committed indiscriminate killings and heinous crimes, which is why he was killed.

It has nothing to do with whether you grew up in the countryside or not.

……

Lu Ye was leisurely eating lunch in the cafeteria.

Anyway, the problem was solved, and my work became much easier instantly.

However, while his teammates were busy, he was still slacking off.

He is waiting for news.

Zank is a notorious fugitive with a reward of up to ten thousand.

However, Lu Ye wasn't particularly interested in money.

What he wanted was a higher position, which meant greater power.

During his time in the capital, he had thoroughly searched the city for the whereabouts of the fragments.

Protoss shards can appear in various forms, as I've already explained.

Moreover, it contains the power to change the world.

In Violet Evergarden, the colonel, having obtained the fragment, single-handedly influenced the course of the war on the Western continent.

In Sekiro, the fragment was obtained by the Divine Dragon, who was recuperating from his injuries and living in seclusion in the Immortal Realm. Therefore, it did not cause much of a stir in that world. Lu Ye retrieved the fragment while healing Violet's dragon cough.

In the world of "Akame ga Kill!", Lu Ye has learned his lesson.

He began actively searching for clues about the fragments, trying to determine their whereabouts by examining the course of history and whether any unusual events had occurred in recent years.

However, after searching around the capital for the past few days, he found no clues.

There were no unusual phenomena or strange rumors.

The only place I haven't been to is the imperial palace located on the mountain in the center of the capital.

But not just anyone can go in there.

The palace was heavily guarded, with more than a thousand guards on duty in shifts, not to mention the powerful bodyguards of the princes and nobles.

Lu Ye also considered whether he should sneak into the palace.

However, Akame gave him a serious reprimand for his behavior.

The palace is teeming with experts.

Some people can keenly sense whether someone is around them just by their scent.

If stealth were effective, the night raid team would have already infiltrated the palace and started killing.

Therefore, Lu Ye felt that

Since forcing our way in or sneaking in won't work, we'll just have to enter openly and honestly.

By rising in status, they can smoothly enter the palace and search for the whereabouts of the fragments.

But to be honest.

Killing Zank alone might not bring any substantial improvement.

But this is not a wasted effort.

Merit needs to be accumulated.

With the merit of killing Zank this time, if I do something else, the people in the capital will gradually take notice of me.

For example, let's take down those guys who used to follow Oujia.

Although they held the identity of the Imperial Capital Garrison, the guys who followed Ou Jia were also notorious for their misdeeds.

Dealing with these people and exposing their misdeeds would be another significant achievement.
