Back Again, Then Off to School? (5.1K)

He took a pair of black gloves out of his pocket and put them on.

He then suddenly swung his sword—

Sizzle!

The noisy crowd fell silent instantly, and the Revolutionary Army stared in stunned fear at the scene before them.

The faces of the leading prefects were contorted with dread.

Immediately afterwards, their bodies collapsed like building blocks.

Soaked in blood, the air was filled with countless tiny threads—the very threads that had killed the governors!

But that's only one aspect.

At the moment those governors died, a flurry of footsteps echoed around them.

Suddenly, a group of assassins dressed in black appeared on the walls surrounding the inner courtyard of the palace. They were a killer group led by Elite Group members such as Nahashu and Cornelia!

Not only that, Seryu Ubiquitous also led 10,000 guards to block the main gate of the imperial city, trapping hundreds of thousands of them inside.

And General Esdeath, who could make even alien races tremble and tremble with fear, appeared right beside Yotsuba Mahiro!

"Can you understand me now?"

Mahiro asked, "If you leave now, your past transgressions will be forgiven; otherwise, you will be treated like this!"

With a deafening roar, a massive head landed in front of the Revolutionary Army.

"This... this is?!?"

Although most of the Revolutionary Army's high command had died, there were still many capable individuals in the current ranks, and many had already recognized what the head was.

It's that legendary, super-dangerous species that dwells in the clouds of the East China Sea!!!

It is said to be an extremely dangerous species that even the First Imperial Capital could not defeat; a terrifying existence was created by taking just one of its body hairs and turning it into an Imperial Arm!

He was actually killed?!

This was one of the super-dangerous creatures he killed with his bare hands during his date with Esdeath.

Furthermore, Shinji Mahiro plucked all the hair off the Cloud Giant Dragon and made it into the gloves he had just used. In terms of performance, they were far superior to the Cross Tail.

Ultimately, under such terrifying coercion, the Revolutionary Army began to retreat.

But the alien races were naturally unwilling to give up and regrouped to try to attack the Imperial Capital.

This time, Mahiro wasn't going to tolerate these people and directly handed the task over to Esdeath, letting this battle maniac handle it.

And after Honest's death and the crisis was resolved, the young emperor, who had regained power, first granted a general amnesty, just as Yotsuba Mahiro had said, pardoning the Revolutionary Army's past crimes, and even exempting the entire empire from taxes for three years!

Not only that, even the people who carried Night Raid were given new roles.

"General Najenda, and Bulat, are you willing to serve me again and protect the Empire?"

"This..."

Najenda was stunned, and Bulat was stunned too.

They were already incredibly lucky to have survived a capital offense, but to their surprise, His Majesty was willing to forgive and forget and intended to reinstate them.

Now that things have come to this, what else can they say?

Of course I agreed!

However, there was both good news and bad news: Yotsuba Mahiro merged the Assassination Department with Night Raid and the Jaegers.

He also resigned as head of the Secret Police, handing the reins over to Bulat and Najenda.

But his deputy minister and secretary, Seryu Ubiquitous, also left at the same time.

As for the Assassination Department, Nahashu and the girls all chose to continue following him, even if they were no longer members of the Assassination Department.

Only Green remained in the Assassination Department, continuing his fight.

In addition, there is good news: Tatsumi, Sayo, and Ieyasu have finally reunited.

This is certainly something to celebrate.

Time flies.

Another year has passed in the blink of an eye.

The alien races were completely suppressed and annihilated by the terrifying being Esdeath. As a result, the empire was rebuilt and everything began to flourish.

Meanwhile, Yotsuba Mahiro spent the past year taking these girls on trips, exploring the sights and scenery of various parts of the empire.

This includes Taeko, who had been guarding his vault, and Chelsea, who had retired from the Night Raid.

It's unclear what Chelsea's true intentions were; perhaps she was planning revenge, but she actually came and followed him around.

Of all the girls he knew, Chelsea was the least likely one.

Incidentally, he took advantage of all these girls.

Originally, I didn't plan to do it so quickly, and I hadn't even considered making a move.

They just came to us of their own accord, there was nothing we could do about it.

The incident began when Cornelia, Pony, Little Silver, and Kurome, the four girls, were staying at a hotel when they heard rumors—

"I've heard that strange crying sounds always come from Mahiro- sama's room at night."

So, the girls formed an investigation team and secretly began investigating the matter at night.

The good news is that they did hear crying, but it sounded more like soft moans, somewhat delicate and sweet.

The bad news is that the crying was coming from Tsukushi!

Tsukushi secretly sneaked over to Mahiro- sama's place to steal a bite of food!

Even Mine didn't know about this!

How could they possibly let it go so easily? Thus began an exceptionally protracted war.

Because of this, Mine was sullen for several days.

"Ha--"

The young emperor, seated on his throne, let out a sigh as if he were a drowning man breathing fresh air again.

Sweat soaked the ground, a few strands of hair, damp with sweat, clung to the corners of her mouth, and her chest heaved rapidly.

His legs trembled slightly, and he slumped completely against the throne.

Her ankle boots had been flung somewhere, and her jade-like feet, encased in black stockings, were stepping on the cold floor tiles.

After an unknown amount of time, she finally regained a little strength and said in a slightly resentful tone, with a hint of coquettishness:

"... Big brother Yotsuba Clan is such a pervert, does he really enjoy doing this kind of thing in the main hall?"

"Hmm, I think this is every man's dream, right? To watch the Empress on her throne, high above everyone else, and hear her sing a beautiful, melodious voice."

"Now that I have fulfilled your dream, big brother, please don't leave. Can you stay and keep me company?"

The young emperor turned around, gazing at him with teary eyes.

But Mahiro shook his head and said, "There's nothing I can do. Just like I said, I'm not from this world. I still have family waiting for me in my original world."

"That's true..."

The little emperor's eyes dimmed at the mention of his family.

The word "family" felt both strange and familiar to her. She used to have many family members, but now she had none left...

"In that case, take me with you when you leave!"

The girl suddenly said that.

This made Mahiro slowly type out a question mark.

"No, are you serious? You don't want your empire and your people anymore?"

"Hmph, they don't need me now. General Najenda can handle the daily official duties perfectly well. I'm just sitting here like a mascot all day. They don't need me as much as you, my big brother, do!"

The girl pouted, clearly very dissatisfied.

"Fine, fine, even so, are you willing to give up your kingdom and territory?"

"What's there to be reluctant about? I'm all alone now, with no relatives or friends, and you're the only close person I have left! What would I do if you left? So, please take me with you, okay?"

"And if you want to control the Supreme Imperial Arms, don't you need my blood?"

The little emperor hugged his arm and gently shook it, even his little bottom wiggled restlessly.

"Alright, alright."

In the end, he couldn't resist the girl's persistent pleading and finally agreed.

The very next day, Mahiro left.

The enormous mansion vanished into thin air, taking with it the young emperor and his Imperial Arms, Leone and Sheele, his maids and subordinates, and even the most powerful sadistic general, Esdeath.

Najenda was left staring at the empty space, a bitter smile playing on her lips as she looked up at the sky.

"Boss, what are you thinking about?"

Bulat asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just feel like it's all a dream."

Sometimes I can't help but wonder, if I hadn't chosen to betray the Empire, would I have ended up making the same choice as Esdeath?

Bathed in sunlight, Najenda raised her smooth, white right hand to shield her eyes from the light, and smiled slightly:

"The sunlight is really dazzling."

The crimson magatama in her left hand also flashed with a fleeting glimmer of light...

Volume 5: The Irregular at the Return of the Demon Lord

Chapter 171 Returning, and then going back to school? (5.1K)

"... What's going on?"

The moment he closed his eyes and opened them again, the world around him changed.

The good news is, I've traveled back from the Akame ga Kill World!

The bad news is, it seems like the same way I came back last time.

The moment I opened my eyes, I saw towering peaks and a stunning wine-red gown.

Immediately afterwards, I felt a gentle touch on the top of my head, like fingertips running through my short hair.

Then came Maya Yotsuba's alluring face, which exuded both charm and boundless tenderness.

"Is he awake yet?"

As a soft greeting echoed in my ears, the familiar scent of roses lingered gently around my nose.

"Ah... it seems I'm doing the same thing as last time?"

"Hehe~ That's right, it seems that subconsciously you still long to return to your mother's embrace, little Mahiro."

Maya let out bursts of silvery laughter.

Her slender fingertips unconsciously brushed lightly across his forehead, as if trying to smooth away the furrows between his brows.

"This joke isn't funny at all."

Mahiro sat up abruptly from Maya's arms, raised an eyebrow and sneered, "The demon returns to your embrace, and then you throw it into the research institute?"
