Before Ruonan could break free, a bolt of lightning tore across the heavens.
Yellow thunder crashed straight down onto Susanoo's head.
Crack!
A shattering sound rang out as Susanoo broke apart directly.
Boom!
The massive Susanoo was forced to one knee by the impact.
As the dust cleared,
lightning flickered around Ruonan's hands as he desperately resisted Laxus's clasped fists!
"Laxus?!"
He was utterly shocked and confused.
Why?
He had clearly transmigrated to the world of Akame ga Kill. Why were people from another world appearing here?
"Could they be transmigrators like me? That must be it. I obtained a Naruto template, so there's no reason they couldn't obtain Fairy Tail templates."
Jumping to conclusions was the deadliest thing of all.
"Do you know me?" Laxus raised a brow.
"You're transmigrators too, aren't you? Stop! I don't want to fight you!" Ruonan shouted.
A smile curled across Laxus's lips. "Unfortunately, it's not about whether you want to or not. Someone wants us to kill you."
"!"
Seeing that they showed neither surprise nor confusion at the word transmigrator, Ruonan's heart sank.
He became even more certain.
These two were transmigrators, just like him!
After a moment of silence, Ruonan asked unwillingly, "I don't understand. I shouldn't have offended you after coming to this world, right?"
He had been keeping a low profile and developing himself all this time. His system had even told him there were no other transmigrators in this world.
Most importantly, this was the first world he had transmigrated to. Wasn't this supposed to be a beginner's start?
Why had it suddenly turned into hell mode at the very last moment?!
"This is a trial."
At that moment, a calm voice sounded.
Ruonan froze.
Looking closely, he discovered that two more people had appeared in front of them at some point.
"Cecilia?!"
The moment Ruonan saw the woman, a trace of astonishment flashed through his eyes.
He could not help swallowing.
My mother-in-law was so beautiful when she was young!
Under Ruonan's blatantly lecherous gaze, Cecilia tightened her grip on Black Abyss White Flower.
"At a time like this, you're still looking at beautiful women. Aren't you a little too carefree?"
Suddenly, a figure stepped in front of Cecilia. Ling Yuan smiled. ""
"!"
Ruonan immediately reacted. His Mangekyo Sharingan spun as he asked with feigned calmness, "What did you mean by a trial?"
"A trial is a trial. It tests whether you are qualified to become a transmigrator."
As he spoke, a token appeared in Ling Yuan's hand.
He began bluffing. "This is a Transmigration Order. Every transmigrator is recorded on a Transmigration Order."
Behind him, Laxus and Hongyan exchanged confused looks.
Why had they never heard Ling Yuan mention something like this before?
"What a joke. This is the first time I've heard of a Transmigration Order!" Ruonan did not believe him at all.
Ling Yuan sneered. "This is your first transmigration, isn't it? Don't use your ignorance to judge transmigrators. Real transmigrators cannot be explained through novels alone."
"Since you don't believe me, I'll help you take a look."
As he spoke, Ling Yuan deliberately looked at the token in his hand.
"Chen Ruonan, a native of Water Blue Star, residing in the Great Asia Republic... Profession: shut-in and thief. You were hit by a bus after stealing supermarket money. Tsk, tsk, another one delivered here by a truck driver."
Ling Yuan slowly recited Ruonan's name, home address, and the circumstances of how he had transmigrated.
Ruonan was completely dumbfounded.
Could something like a Transmigration Order really exist?
While Ruonan was still reeling, Ling Yuan continued, "A Transmigration Order is a token used to gather transmigrators, as well as proof of a transmigrator's identity. A system cannot grant such proof. You must pass certain assessments to obtain it. These are the rules established by all transmigrators throughout the dimensions."
"Only those who pass the trial can be called true transmigrators. Otherwise, you are merely one of many candidates."
"B-but I already have a system," Ruonan said.
This seemed completely different from the transmigration he had imagined.
Shouldn't transmigrators be unrestrained protagonists, invincible and arrogant?
"No way, no way. You don't actually think systems form naturally, do you? Use your brain. Could abilities from the Naruto world create a system?" At that moment, Ling Yuan became a master actor, displaying his contempt to perfection.
"This..."
This time, Ruonan truly lost his confidence.
From what the other person said, was his system artificial?!
System, is what he said true?
Ruonan kept questioning his system in his heart.
But unfortunately, his system acted as though it had died, not daring to say a single word.
That only made Ruonan think the system had tacitly admitted it, and he believed Ling Yuan a little more.
After all, his system could not possibly joke about something like this.
The three greatest illusions in life: you think, you believe, you feel.
After understanding the "cause and effect," Ruonan took a deep breath. "What kind of trial is it?"
"Very simple. Just hold out against us for ten minutes." Ling Yuan smiled.
Ruonan hesitated. "Just... ten minutes?"
"Of course. But you can only defend. You cannot attack." Seeing him frown, Ling Yuan said leisurely, "You've developed for so long. If you can't even last ten minutes, it means you don't have the heart to become stronger. Across the many dimensions, people destined to be eliminated like that are not allowed to become transmigrators."
"!"
Ruonan's heart jolted.
He raised his head, looked at Ling Yuan and the others, then gritted his teeth. "Fine! I'll take everything you throw at me for the next ten minutes!"
"You can be taught." Ling Yuan's lips curled slightly.
Laxus and Hongyan were a little confused.
Why did this feel so strange?
Ling Yuan: "@Lightning Dragon Slayer, @First Prince, what are you two standing around for? Hit him! Don't you like free punching bags?"
At that moment, the two of them understood.
A hint of pity appeared in their eyes as they looked at Ruonan.
Poor kid.
He had been sold off and was still helping count the money.
Lightning Dragon Slayer: "@Ling Yuan, I'm drawing a line between us. People who play tactics are all black-hearted!"
First Prince: "Agreed."
Hongyan agreed with that as well.
To be fair, Koumei was black-hearted too.
Ling Yuan did not care in the slightest.
What black-hearted? The only girls allowed to call me dirty are the ones in bed!
Time returned to ten minutes earlier.
Ling Yuan's home.
"System, do you have a way to suppress that person's system?" Ling Yuan asked his own system.
"Ding! Replying to Master, the system of the transmigrator from the Akame ga Kill world is a lower-mid-tier system. This system can not only suppress it, but also completely seal it. However, matters concerning transmigrators fall outside this system's jurisdiction, so this system is powerless to interfere."
"System, you just said you could seal it, right?" Ling Yuan's eyes lit up.
"Ding! Yes."
"That's enough. Can you extract the information concerning transmigrators from that system?"
"Ding! Yes, but we must be in the same world as that system. Across different dimensions, this system is temporarily unable to suppress it remotely," the system answered honestly.
"That's easy, then. I suddenly thought of something very interesting." Ling Yuan smiled indifferently.
That was how what had happened earlier came about.
At the same time, the overlapping shuriken in his pupils spun wildly, and the kneeling Susanoo stood back up.
Ruonan took a deep breath and slowly drew two eighty-meter-long Susanoo tachi!
"Come on!"
Laxus and Ren Kouen exchanged a glance before charging out the next second.
Thunder and flames intertwined, battering Susanoo like a raging storm.
Even something as sturdy as Susanoo shattered and repaired itself endlessly under their attacks.
The Susanoo tachi, powerful enough to split a small mountain, was easily crushed in Laxus's hand as though it were made of paper.
Dragon Force was power comparable to the legendary dragons.
Dragon-Slaying Magic that tore apart dragon wings, pierced dragon scales, shattered dragon organs, and hunted dragon souls.
Its name was—
"Dragon Slayer Secret Art!"
"Thunder Mercury Crimson Imperial Thunder!"
Laxus roared as the lightning around him underwent a qualitative transformation, becoming crimson thunderbolts.
"Boom!"
A crimson lightning beam as thick as a waterfall poured down!
At the same time, Hongyan held his longsword upright before him and gave it a light turn, the blade covering half his face. "Super Gigantic Magic!"
His eyes sharpened as a massive Octagram unfolded behind him. "Purgatory Dragon Soaring Flash!"
"Roar!"
A crimson flame dragon burst from the Octagram with a deafening roar.
