Akame's face lit up as she stared at the figure... the reward was hers.
That way, she could ask whether Teacher Rita could change the dessert to ribs. If not... she could give it to her younger sister, Kurotama. After all, Kurotama really liked desserts.
However... Akame was extremely conflicted by the current situation. Lord Durandal had told her that after finding the target, she should avoid making a move and keep an eye on him first. Lord Durandal intended to use Zank the Executioner as bait to lure in the infamous Night Raid of the Imperial Capital.
As for Night Raid, Akame could not say whether they were good or bad.
She had seen the Empire's darkness for herself, and she naturally despised it. But the one she was loyal to was not the Empire—it was Lord Durandal.
Although Lord Durandal was currently part of the Empire's faction, they understood her ideals. Lord Durandal and Teacher Rita wanted to establish a new empire through another method, one that minimized bloodshed as much as possible—a peaceful and prosperous nation!
The old heavens had perished; Brilliant heavens should rise!
Durandal had said that the current Empire had reached its final days. Just like people, nations grew old. Now, a new empire should emerge, and that new empire should be Schicksal!
Brilliant heavens should rise; the new empire should be the Brilliant Empire!
And the Revolutionary Army's methods would not bring people peace and prosperity simply by overthrowing the Empire.
Even if they succeeded and overthrew the Empire through massive slaughter... once the Empire, their common enemy, was gone, the alliance between the Revolutionary Army, the three major foreign races, and the other forces would completely fall apart. Would they really hand over the Empire willingly and live together in peace?
No,
