The two headed toward the Imperial Palace together. Halfway there, they unexpectedly ran into someone they knew.
Seeing the figure in the distance, Rita and Durandal were both slightly stunned. Wasn't that... Esdeath, one of the Empire's famed female generals?
She had just gone to the Imperial Palace as well?
Thinking about it carefully, it wasn't strange... She had just fought Akame and the others.
When Rita and Durandal encountered Esdeath, Esdeath seemed to sense someone watching her and turned around as well.
She was also taken aback upon seeing Rita and Durandal, but the next moment, she smiled.
"Esdeath."
Durandal walked toward Esdeath, while Rita's only exposed wine-red eye narrowed slightly as she watched Esdeath dangerously.
"General Durandal, what a coincidence! And Minister Rita."
"They say Minister Rita and General Durandal are very close. Now that I see it, that really does seem to be the case. I just wonder... why does Minister Rita seem so hostile toward me?"
Esdeath waited for the two to approach, folding her arms as she stared at Rita.
"How could that be? General Esdeath must have seen wrong. How could I possibly be hostile toward General Esdeath?" Rita smiled at Esdeath with professional courtesy.
"Perhaps. I don't really care about that. General Durandal, how have you considered my proposal? If you agree... I can join you."
Esdeath replied indifferently to Rita, her attention mainly on Durandal.
"Want another beating? Then of course... I'll grant your wish!"
Durandal answered with a smile as well.
P.S.: Going to sleep! See you tomorrow.

Durandal had no intention of refusing Esdeath's proposal. She just wanted to keep getting beaten up by Durandal... so Durandal would grant her wish!
Durandal usually sparred with Rita and the others too, but she couldn't bear to go too
