The Minister's Death, Seizing the Throne? / The One Who Should Have Died
Seryu's left eye suddenly burst open, revealing a small cannon muzzle, from which miniature rockets were fired outwards.
"This guy even modified his own eyes?" Brand was forced to retreat.
The area around him had completely exploded, making it impossible for a normal person to get close.
To avoid the aftershocks from harming his companions, Schwi rushed into the shockwave and threw a punch at the opponent.
"How is that possible?"
Seryu was shocked by Schwi's strength.
"Justice will be served, in three or four stages, and justice will prevail!"
Bang!
The other eye was also ruptured.
Seryu used her arms to tear the skin off her face and stomach, revealing bloody tissue.
Inside, there were cannon muzzles everywhere.
Schwi was stunned for a moment, and then she was hit by a barrage of bullets.
"Cough cough."
An explosion of unknown magnitude caused her injury.
"Hahaha, this is the latest design that the Mr. Fashion gave me. With the blessing of this power, justice will be invincible!"
Now, in this bloody state, she is nothing like the Seryu we first met.
"Phew, it seems the problem isn't with Shokuhou Misaki's abilities, but rather that this guy... has a problem with his genes." Schwi had already realized the other party's irrationality.
The only way is to eradicate it completely.
"Die!"
Chapter 392 The Death of a Minister, the Seizure of the Throne?
Schwi's unscathed state and swift counterattack caused Seryu's expression to change drastically.
You're unharmed even by an explosion?
At that moment, the only way she could think of to win was to self-destruct.
But Schwi didn't give her a chance.
A fist came flying, slamming heavily into her abdomen. Then, a gun sprang from his arm and fired a shot into the air, piercing through her body.
The intense heat melted every inch of the interior, and the bomb inside the brain melted away at a visible speed.
"Seryu, I never imagined you would end up like this." Schwi sighed. "Even the gods can't save you now. You're far Emiya Kiritsugu."
Even if the Hero of Justice fail, they are still on the path of dedication and willing to endure suffering.
Seryu, on the other hand, is simply self-righteous and twisted.
This guy is no better than Aria.
Everyone else rushed up and witnessed the target being killed.
"Is he dead?" Chelsea asked, biting a needle, before finally giving a helpless smile. "He didn't even give me a chance to make a move."
Chelsea wasn't good at close combat; she usually disguised herself as someone else to approach her target, and after lowering their guard, she would use poison to kill them in one blow.
"Now that a major problem has been solved, the next challenge is dealing with the entire Jaegers, right?"
"Right."
In response to Schwi's question, Mine immediately nodded. "The final victory is coming."
"What a happy ending."
Schwi laugh.
In the original story, countless people had died by this point, but now not a single one has died. This must be the change that happened after my arrival.
However, at this point, she was actually completely indifferent to the life and death of the main characters.
The longer one lives, the more indifferent one becomes to human nature. Apart from a small number of characters who can truly capture her attention, most are merely passersby in her life.
To put it simply, thousands or tens of thousands of years later, all these people are gone, and only Su Lin himself is still watching over the many worlds.
Territory.
"Welcome back. The rebel intelligence has located several Jaegers members who have left the Imperial Capital area and are preparing to attack us. There is no doubt that Esdeath will personally take action."
The boss remained calmly leaning back in his chair, showing no signs of nervousness whatsoever.
"Have you figured out what to do? Do you need to lure them away separately?"
"No need, one wave is enough." The BOSS glanced at Kurotama, Brand, Shokuhou Misaki, Schwi, and Chelsea. "We have very strong fighting power. Apart from being wary of Esdeath, there is almost nothing else we need to worry about. If we are strong enough, we should be confident. They should be the ones who are afraid now."
"Ah, I'm kind of looking forward to meeting the other Kurotama." The fake Kurotama giggled in front of Akame. "Sister, who will you choose?"
"..."
Akame looked somewhat puzzled, and finally sighed softly, "If another one really appears, then... I'll have no choice but to kill her with my own hands."
"And what about me?"
"You are my sister." A gentle smile appeared on Akame's lips.
"..."
You can't believe anything you say now; you'll understand when you actually see it for yourself.
That morning, everyone rested for an hour before gathering and setting off.
The battle against Esdeath was mainly fought by Schwi, while Kurotama... naturally, it was dealt with using Kurotama clones.
This time, Su Lin did not hide his strength. Before the final battle began, he sent Shokuhou Misaki and the clone of the Mysterious Heroine X to the Imperial Palace, where they killed the minister in one blow in front of countless officials.
They also eliminated thousands of soldiers and dozens of officials under the minister's control.
The young emperor publicly announced that the ministers' families had been dismissed from their posts and that the throne would be temporarily ceded to the Queen.
Everyone in the imperial court who witnessed this scene fell silent.
Silence reigned.
"Your Majesty, this is no joke, is it? The throne has been passed down through generations; how can it be lost in your hands?"
"I have made up my mind that the Queen is better able to lead the country."
Under the influence of Shokuhou Misaki, the young emperor is truly preparing to lose his throne.
For the loyal ministers, this was truly a time of mixed emotions, filled with both sorrow and joy.
Tragically, their emperor was able to hand over the country to others; gleefully, the ministerial clique suffered a severe blow, and he himself was publicly executed.
The people have hope.
X walked to the side of the throne, and after Shokuhou Misaki took the throne in place of the young emperor, she raised her Noble Phantasm.
"Announce the new imperial decree: crack down on all remaining associates, families, and collaborators of the ministers. Anyone who dares to say a good word for the ministers..." X grinned, revealing his teeth, "Will be killed without mercy!"
"..."
The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Some of the officials had already sided with the ministers and were also dissatisfied with the new emperor's ascension to the throne, but... not one of them dared to openly curse him in public.
However, there were indeed many who resisted.
Ninety-nine percent of the people in the Imperial Capital are the ministers' people. Only if the rebel army breaks in, carries out a large-scale purge of the defending soldiers, and replaces the palace and the surrounding cities can it be considered as complete control.
Sure enough, soon an official questioned, "The minister is already dead. If we continue killing, we might lose the support of the people."
"Very well, you're dead." X's Noble Phantasm flashed, and the man's head fell to the ground in front of everyone.
"Ah!"
Many officials turned pale with fright.
They really killed without hesitation.
"I already know what each of you is thinking. This afternoon, all the former ministers' subordinates in the Imperial Capital will be purged. You have three hours to escape. As long as you leave the border of the Imperial Capital before then, you can escape this massacre."
Shokuhou Misaki smiled and crossed her legs. Undoubtedly, many people dared not speak on the surface, but cursed inwardly.
Even if these people manage to escape this wave, they will still face certain death afterward.
"Her Queen has spoken, why are you not kneeling down?" the abdicated young emperor demanded.
The officials were reluctant to kneel.
Even the loyal ministers of the past could only sigh and obediently follow orders.
"Alright, prepare to announce the minister's death to the world. This afternoon, Night Raid will engage in a decisive battle with the Jaegers. I urge you all to be sensible and stand in the right positions. Even Esdeath cannot save some people's heads."
After saying this, Shokuhou Misaki stood up and left the scene in front of everyone.
X himself was already prepared for a city-wide massacre.
This can be considered a small gift she left for the Night Raid and the resistance.
We don't know yet if we can take Akame away from this world. If we can't, we should at least try to leave her something.
For example, making her the new emperor or something.
Could this be considered an act of affection towards the older sister?
Chapter 393 The Man Who Should Have Died
The mountainous area is located south of the Imperial Capital.
"General Esdeath, there are people ahead."
Will, who had just arrived on horseback, suddenly saw Kurotama standing in the middle of the road, and his face twitched violently.
Wait... Kurotama?
I quickly turned my head to glance at the one next to me, and then looked at the one opposite me; they seemed to look exactly the same.
"Oh, is this the other me that split off?"
The native world's Kurotama had long been unhappy with Night Raid, especially when she saw Akame standing behind her, her heart clenched.
Without comparison, she would never be in such a bad mood now.
At this moment, her own imposter, posing as Akame's sister, was standing on the opposite side.
"Two traitors."
Little did she know, Akame's feelings were even more complicated.
"Repent and turn over a new leaf, Kurotama!"
As the older sister, I couldn't tell which one was true for a moment, so I could only assume they were both.
Holding one younger sister in each arm brings double the joy.
Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.
"Sister, are you still saying such stupid things? Shouldn't you be the one to repent and reform?" Kurotama slowly raised Yatsufusa, and then a huge super Danger Beast, Destagur, appeared in front of her.
"See? I'm the real one, the true Teigu Yatsufusa. You imposter over there, you think you can control something like this... what?"
Like the fake Kurotama, she raised her Imperial Arms and began vying for control with the Kurotama opposite her.
In fact, the two Imperial Arms are exactly the same. Even if they contain puppets, as long as their internal nature remains unchanged, they can completely control the puppets they control.
Su Lin, who controlled the Kurotama, naturally took advantage of this.
"You..."
Destagul's control was thus taken away.
The woman opposite him, with her Kurotama clenched her teeth.
She tried to summon other puppets, but they were also restrained by the fake Kurotama.
"It's exactly the same." Esdeath flicked her long hair, preparing to unleash her ice attack, when Schwi descended from the sky and punched her in the stomach.
The scene flashed before their eyes, and the two disappeared.
