However, Najenda didn't say anything, only smiled faintly and remained silent.

Najenda had roughly guessed that Koizumi might be looking for something, hence his need for so-called information.

This naive young man wouldn't have any excessive ambitions, and even if he did, it wouldn't cause too much trouble.

With that, Najenda was somewhat relieved of her worries, but only somewhat.

Maybe he's just pretending, Najenda still had a bit of concern about that possibility.

Hundred Personas and Serenity looked at Koizumi before them, saying nothing, knowing this wasn't the place to talk with him.

As summoned Assassins, they had many mysteries surrounding them. In Koizumi's eyes, these were mysteries he needed to gradually unravel. Similarly, Koizumi, as the only Master of this Singularity, was also a so-called mystery in the eyes of the two Assassins, something they needed to clarify.

By the way, all those Assassins from earlier had disappeared, leaving only a skeleton leader.

It seemed that was this skeleton leader's unique skill or Noble Phantasm.

This skeleton leader was Hundred Personas, and the other skeleton girl covered in poison was Serenity.

"Yo! Little bro! You finally made it!" Leone seemed very enthusiastic, throwing an arm around Koizumi's shoulders.

Koizumi looked at her speechlessly. Speaking of which, are you planning to return the money you stole?

After glaring at Leone, Koizumi elbowed her in the stomach.

"You should return the money you stole first! I got kicked by Reimu because I had to pay her back!"

Mentioning the stolen money, Leone's cheeks couldn't help but stiffen slightly.

Seriously, this was the only time she'd stolen from the wrong person, stealing from a big shot.

She had now decided that she should be more careful when stealing from outsiders in the future, at least investigate whether the other party was a big shot or not. If they weren't, stealing from them wouldn't be a problem, but if they were, it was better to run far away.

So, one must be cautious when doing things, especially when stealing money. She would remember this lesson.

"Oh, Koizumi, you're here..." Seeing Koizumi sit down opposite her, Reimu seemed to only notice him just now, which made Koizumi feel strangely sad. I've been here for a long time, have you eaten so much that you've forgotten yourself?

Noticing Koizumi's strange gaze, Reimu couldn't help but quickly turn her head to the side.

Actually, she had noticed Koizumi's arrival long ago, but she couldn't bear to part with such delicious food.

She heard that all these dishes were made by that Teigu called Susanoo. That Teigu was not only excellent in melee combat, but also very skilled in household chores, able to do cleaning and laundry, and had over 1000 kinds of dishes he was good at.

This was simply perfect... completely comparable to the maid in Remilia's house...

If there was someone like that to take care of her, then her life would really be perfect.

Chapter 74: My name is Akame, nice to meet you.

"Hmm! This is well made!" To be honest, Koizumi didn't know why Reimu enjoyed these dishes so much.

But after taking the first bite, even Koizumi's eyes lit up. These dishes tasted great!

And the standard was above his own. Night Raid actually had a professional chef! He had been blind!

No wonder Reimu couldn't bear to part with these dishes. The dishes had completely no repetition in variety, and each one could reach the level of a chef, even more powerful than a chef. Were these dishes made by a professional?

Koizumi couldn't help but ask himself this question. He was really curious.

"These dishes are all made by Susanoo. Susanoo is our Night Raid's biological Teigu. I went to the Revolutionary Army headquarters and became compatible with him. Afterwards, he came to Night Raid together with Lord Hundred Personas and the others. By the way, Susanoo is not only excellent in melee combat, but also very skilled in household chores, able to do cleaning and laundry, and has over 1000 kinds of dishes he is good at."

Najenda began to introduce her Teigu to Koizumi before her, her tone full of pride.

How should she put it, being able to adapt to such a perfect Teigu could also indirectly prove her excellence.

Although Najenda wasn't very high-profile, that was only because she was forced to. A defector couldn't be high-profile in the Revolutionary Army. However, as a general, Najenda also had a sense of pride in her heart. It was rare for her to be proud of such a thing, so how could she not seize this opportunity?

Her teammates were already very familiar with her, so it was difficult to put on an act. So now she could only find newcomers.

Najenda's idea was very good, and it was also realized. Koizumi was indeed fooled by her.

Not only excellent in melee combat, but also very skilled in household chores, able to do cleaning and laundry, and has over 1000 kinds of dishes he is good at... This Teigu of yours is awesome, both life and battle are not delayed, I also want such a Teigu...

Reimu was the same, at this moment looking at Susanoo before her with bright eyes, the color of envy already overflowing.

"Hey... you're called Najenda, right? How about I exchange my talisman for Susanoo, how many do you want... even chast..." Reimu's next words were directly interrupted by Koizumi. If she continued to say it, people around her would look at her with strange eyes. After all, he was also Reimu's teammate, Reimu's embarrassment was equal to his embarrassment!

Also, you actually wanted to say chastity just now... your chastity is already negative, you can't sell it!

The corner of Najenda's mouth couldn't help but twitch fiercely, feeling like she had heard something terrible, it must be an illusion.

"This Teigu is indeed a bit scary, both life and battle are not delayed, Lord Najenda, being able to adapt to such a Teigu, you are also very good..." Koizumi's praise was sincere, and Najenda also satisfied her pride.

But then again, is Night Raid only this many people? Pink twintail girl, purple cheongsam girl, bold big sister, Hundred Personas and Serenity, Najenda, Susanoo, and the headset girl who has been behind Najenda, looking at herself, Reimu, and Hata no Kokoro with curious eyes...

It feels like the number doesn't match what I sensed before, there should be someone who hasn't appeared yet.

As if noticing Koizumi's doubts, Najenda took the initiative to explain.

"Some of Night Raid are responsible for guarding the rear, guarding against anyone noticing Night Raid's location. After all, there is also a great risk in placing the base in the suburbs of the Imperial Capital. Because this place is sparsely populated, it is also the best place to be a base. Someone will think of this kind of thing." Najenda said with a faint smile.

Koizumi couldn't help but nod, as expected of Night Raid's Boss, this kind of courage is really amazing.

It seems that there is still a lot I need to learn... Koizumi said silently in his heart.

"Boss, we're back!" Speak of the devil, is it to praise their high efficiency? Or to praise their ability to foresee the future, actually rushing back as soon as they mentioned them.

The leader was a black-haired, red-eyed girl, and the katana at her waist gave people a very dangerous feeling.

That dangerous feeling was like the poison on Serenity, so it seemed they were similar things.

If there were no surprises, it should be a Teigu. After all, Night Raid is a killer organization responsible for assassinating high-ranking officials in the Imperial Capital. If they didn't each have a Teigu, that would be too pathetic, and they wouldn't be qualified to spend so long fighting Reimu and the others.

The one on the left was a strong man with a... strange pompadour hairstyle, but he was still relatively handsome. However, Koizumi and Reimu couldn't help but comment on that hairstyle. Did he use hairspray? How did he maintain that hairstyle?

However, Koizumi felt a dangerous aura coming from this man...

As expected, Night Raid was full of hidden talents. How many people was this who had given him a dangerous feeling?

Fortunately, the one on the right was normal, a green-haired man, handsome and young-looking.

But, did all that green mean someone would cuckold him in the future? It felt like this color didn't match his emotions. He was afraid his luck in love would be terrible in the future, and anyone who pursued him probably wouldn't have a good ending.

There was no helping it. A full set of green clothes, green hair, plus a green hat, wouldn't that be a perfect match?

"You're all back. Are you alright?" Najenda asked with concern. Although she knew nothing would happen, Najenda treated Night Raid as her family.

When family members went to the battlefield, no one would not worry just because their family was strong, because anything could happen, and accidents could happen on the battlefield at any time. It would be strange not to ask if they were safe.

"We're fine. Although some foreign mercenaries found this place, we've already dealt with them."

The black-haired, red-eyed girl said calmly. The aura around her made Koizumi's body tense up subconsciously.

Lubbock's Thousand Transformations: Cross Tail was very useful. A large area around Night Raid was covered with the barrier he used, and his Teigu would react to any movement.

That's good. Najenda nodded slightly, but...

The black-haired, red-eyed girl's gaze suddenly focused on Koizumi, making Koizumi feel inexplicably strange.

What's going on? Does she... know me?

Then, under Koizumi's puzzled gaze, the girl slowly stepped forward and extended her right hand.

"My name is Akame. Nice to meet you."

Chapter 75: A Familiar Face

It was another silent atmosphere. After Akame said this, everyone was silent.

Reimu was silent because she didn't know the reason, Hata no Kokoro was silent because she was used to it, Koizumi was silent because he felt inexplicable, and as for why the others were silent, Koizumi didn't know, Reimu didn't know, and Hata no Kokoro didn't know either.

Akame also looked around in confusion. She was just introducing herself to the newcomer, what was wrong?

Those red eyes swept over everyone, starting with Najenda, while tilting her head slightly to express her confusion.

"So, Akame, do you really know this little guy?" Leone put her arm around Akame's shoulder, feeling very curious. After all, as Akame's comrades and friends, they didn't know the people Akame knew.

They were very curious. After all, according to what they knew, Akame used to depend on her younger sister. She didn't know anyone before being sold to the Empire. After entering the Empire, she became one of the seven elite members of the Imperial Assassination Squad. So, the people Akame knew were basically from the Assassination Squad, that is, the seven elite members. But now, the seven elite members were basically dead, except for one younger sister in the Empire. Who else did Akame know that they didn't know?

Actually, they had been curious about this ever since Akame said to pay attention to outsiders in the Imperial Capital.

Who exactly was Akame looking for? Besides Akame's younger sister, they had never seen Akame care about someone so much.

"I don't know him... This is the first time I've met him," Akame said calmly, with no change in expression on her face.

She didn't seem to know him, after all, she was talking like this when they met. It was just that Akame was so enthusiastic to talk to a newcomer for the first time, which made Najenda and others who were familiar with Akame feel very curious, so they asked.

After all, Akame wouldn't do this under normal circumstances, she would remain silent, and only care when she needed to, and by the way, ask if the other party had joined them. If they had, she would say a little more, if not, then that was it.

This was Akame in her normal state, but the current Akame was obviously not in her normal state.

Leone and the others subconsciously looked at Koizumi. Could it be that the two of them really knew each other for the first time?

Not to mention Leone and the others, even Reimu and Hata no Kokoro couldn't help but focus their attention on Koizumi. They were probably thinking that Koizumi was from here before he lost his memory. After all, Koizumi and Akame were a little strange.

But then again, the strange one was Akame, not Koizumi! What was so strange about Koizumi?

But... at this moment, Koizumi was also looking at Akame in front of him. For some reason, apart from those red eyes, this face seemed familiar... but he just couldn't remember it...

"Hey! You don't really know her, do you? Before you lost your memory, were you from here?"

As expected, Reimu asked the corresponding question. She was indeed suspecting that Koizumi was from this world.

Unfortunately, the answer Koizumi gave would ultimately disappoint her...

"Don't think too much, I am definitely not from this world, I can be sure. I just feel that her face is very familiar. Apart from those red eyes, this face is indeed very familiar, but I can't remember when it was."

Koizumi couldn't help but scratch his head. He vaguely remembered that it didn't seem to be those red eyes, it seemed to be... black...

He really couldn't remember it clearly. This was the first time this had happened. In the past, he either didn't remember it at all, or there would be no such ambiguous memory. It really made Koizumi feel strange. Could it be that he had forgotten something again? Although this was very possible, he had been following Reimu and Hata no Kokoro recently.

Apart from that time he met Leone, Koizumi had hardly left Reimu and Hata no Kokoro.

How vexing... To be honest, he didn't care much about memory before, but this time, Koizumi could be said to have realized for the first time that memory was really troublesome. The feeling of remembering sometimes and not remembering at other times was really annoying!

As if hearing what Koizumi said, Akame's pair of red pupils suddenly shrank, but quickly recovered.

No one noticed that momentary change, not even Koizumi and Reimu.

Since Koizumi and Reimu's voices were very small, it seemed that no one else heard them except Akame.

No... Perhaps the two Assassin's heard Koizumi and Reimu's conversation, but they were obviously not the type of people who would be interested in such conversations.

Finally, this silence was broken by Najenda. Someone had to break the awkward atmosphere, right?

Under Najenda's introduction, Koizumi had a general understanding of everyone in Night Raid.

For example, that strong young man was called Bulat, a former general of the Empire, a [Hundred-Man Slayer] warrior who had cut down 128 people in one battle. He was strong and a special operations personnel who could skillfully use various tactics to eliminate enemies.

The man clad in green is called Lubbock. He was originally the fourth son of a wealthy local merchant, but he voluntarily chose to follow Najenda. His direct combat ability isn't particularly high; his fighting style relies more on technique.

The reason he follows Najenda... supposedly, he fell in love with her. Well, it seems this guy's romantic path is going to be quite bumpy. Najenda is the type who prioritizes work over personal matters. Poor Lubbock.

But Lubbock is impressive, willing to give up a vast family fortune for love. He seems like a friend worth making.

The pink-haired, twintailed girl is named Mine. She's a shooting prodigy. I heard she was the one who sniped at Reimu. Reimu also praised Mine's accuracy. If it weren't for Reimu's excellent intuition and Gensokyo's specialty being danmaku, Reimu probably would have been hit by her.

The woman in the light purple cheongsam is an older sister type named Sheele. She's a glasses girl who likes to read, but she's absentminded and a bit of an airhead. However, she's very gentle. Just one glance was enough for Koizumi to make that assessment.

The girl with headphones is called Chelsea. Apparently, she's an assassin from the Revolutionary Army headquarters. She has a lively and cheerful personality and is very friendly, but she also likes to joke and play pranks. She's a girl with a dark side. Just by asking Mine and the others, Koizumi could tell she was quite cunning. He heard that she had only arrived a few days ago but already frequently teased and made fun of Mine.

However, Akame and the others are very friendly to Chelsea, and Chelsea often gives Akame candy.

But speaking of candy, why did he think of a girl who looks exactly like Akame but with different colored pupils?

Chapter 76 Discussion

Although it hasn't been long, Koizumi has learned a lot about Night Raid through conversations with others. Having a basic understanding of them is necessary; otherwise, it will be more troublesome to get along with them in the future.

It must be said that Koizumi's spirits are rather low due to not sleeping all night.

He spent the whole night on edge, preparing for battle, and then he was ambushed and poisoned. Although his body is now healed, his mental state isn't great... at least, Koizumi's spirit seems very listless right now.

Although he wants to rest, he can't sleep right now, so Koizumi is spending his time familiarizing himself with Night Raid. With Reimu's help, Koizumi is already quite familiar with Night Raid.

At this moment, Koizumi is sitting silently on the ground, gazing into the distance, seemingly lost in thought.

"Got nothing to do right now?" Reimu suddenly walked up to Koizumi and slowly sat down.

"Aren't you the same..." Koizumi said speechlessly, rolling his eyes at Reimu.

It's not like Reimu isn't free. Although Reimu needs to help the Revolutionary Army make talismans, she's too lazy to help them without the necessary information, so she still needs to wait for the information to arrive.

Besides, Reimu has plenty of talismans. She made a lot when she was in the Imperial Capital, and she still has many on her.

Reimu gave each member of Night Raid one talisman and didn't give any more.

Those talismans she gave out were just compensation for the meals they provided. It's no big deal; she has plenty to spare anyway.
