Swish!!
The Void Blade sliced through Zank the Executioner's short blade as easily as cutting tofu, then swept upward and cleaved him in two.
Bang!!
Zank's bisected corpse crashed heavily onto the ground, blood staining the floor red.
Akame crouched down and directly picked up the Imperial Arm from Zank's body, but she did not immediately test whether she could use it. After all, since that Zank had worn it, it had to be thoroughly cleaned first.
The old Akame might not have cared about such things, but after serving as Teacher Rita's maid for so long, she had become quite fond of cleanliness.
Especially since its previous and previous-previous owners had both been men. It had to be soaked in water and rinsed for several days first.
After picking up the Imperial Arm, Akame turned to look at Brandt and Mine nearby. The two of them had not left yet, and they looked extremely wary when Akame glanced their way.
"..."
Akame looked at them a few times without saying a word, then turned and left.
As Akame's figure vanished from sight, Mine and Brandt both let out a sigh of relief. She did not even have an Imperial Arm, yet she had killed Zank as effortlessly as chopping vegetables—two strikes, and he was dead.
They had fought Zank for so long just now, while Akame had needed only two strikes? She could probably have ended it in one.
Was the gap really that huge?
Although the main reason was Future Vision, illusion vision, and insight vision. Sometimes, even when they knew the other person was not really her or him, the resemblance was simply too perfect...
It was not a disguise at all. It was exactly the person they held in their hearts, without the slightest difference.
