"Hmm, so that blonde one finally ran away, and Brat was captured by the Three Beasts?" Kaede said, listening to Nahash's report.
"That is the case." Nahash nodded.
"General, I have a Teigu!" At this moment, Tatsumi jumped out, a joyful smile on his face.
"Hmm? What's going on?" Kaede's eyes also widened.
"Look!" Tatsumi, like a junior showing off a toy he had received in front of an elder, took out the Teigu he had obtained.
"Stomach-Churning Demon!" Tatsumi took out the sword directly, and then a set of white armor appeared on his body.
"An armor-type Teigu, Stomach-Churning Demon. It should be Brat's Teigu. It seems you have taken Brat's Teigu." Kaede also smiled. As for the Three Beasts not agreeing? Who cares about their opinion.
"Yeah, come to think of it, Tatsumi just touched the Teigu and said he could use it. I was a bit surprised at the time too." Nahash also smiled.
"Hehe!" Tatsumi scratched his head and laughed.
"Change back. The Stomach-Churning Demon has very high requirements for physical fitness, so Tatsumi, you must continue to strengthen your physical training in the future," Kaede said.
"Understood!" Tatsumi nodded.
"Well then, that's all. I'm going out for a while." Kaede nodded. She had actually been waiting here just to witness their safe return; in fact, she couldn't wait to go to Esdeath.
Of course, it wasn't to see Esdeath, but because Kurome had arrived!
"Understood." Both Nahash and Tatsumi nodded.
When Tatsumi went out, he saw a pink-haired girl, his mortal enemy. Now that he had finally obtained a Teigu, how could he not go and show off in front of her!
He acted on the thought immediately, yet Tatsumi completely forgot that Mine was previously—no, currently—a member of Night Raid, and the Teigu he obtained from Brat also originated from Night Raid...
However, none of this concerned Kaede anymore. At this moment, Kaede had already arrived at Esdeath's place and saw a masked person. That ice-blue long hair allowed Kaede to recognize who she was at a glance.
"What are you doing?" Kaede looked at Esdeath, feeling a bit speechless, and asked.
"Oh? It's Kaede. You don't come here often." Esdeath took off her mask, revealing that stunningly beautiful face.
"It's you who often runs over to my place." Kaede looked at Esdeath, rolled her eyes at her, and said, "My sister is here."
"Your sister?" Esdeath was also stunned, then smiled, "Oh, so your sister is here."
"Yes."
"Come in in a moment. I happen to want to test my members," Esdeath waved the mask in her hand.
"Bad taste." Kaede also knew Esdeath's personality. She didn't like it much; rather than torturing people, she was more accustomed to one-hit kills.
Then, Kaede followed behind Esdeath and saw Esdeath push the door open forcefully.
From the opened door, Kaede quickly saw the five people sitting there, but Kaede was not in a hurry and just watched from there.
Esdeath attacked without rhyme or reason, sending a young man flying with a single punch.
"Huh?" Kaede seemed to have discovered something and looked at someone, then smiled, "I didn't expect Boros to be here too."
Since that day, Kaede had not seen Boros, but that didn't mean Kaede had forgotten what she said to Boros, yet Boros had never looked for her once.
Actually, thinking about it carefully, it made sense. Boros was originally that kind of person, relying on his own hands to shelter his family from wind and rain; naturally, he wouldn't come to find Kaede before he was driven to a dead end.
However, what surprised Kaede was that the force of Esdeath's subsequent attack was actually blocked, and the previous young man rushed up again. After taking a hit from Esdeath and being completely fine, it was clear his physical strength was high, and then he punched back with considerable power.
Afterwards, Kurome put the snack in her hand into her mouth, then a sharp glint appeared in her eyes. The next moment, Kurome's body rushed out, drawing yatsufusa!
Although it still didn't cause any injuries to Esdeath, it broke Esdeath's mask. Among them, Boros recognized Esdeath, so naturally, they couldn't continue fighting.
"Good, good!" At this moment, a smile also appeared on Esdeath's face. She was very satisfied with the people the empire had selected for her!
"It's over, our superior is also a weirdo!" After Wave realized that the ice-blue-haired woman in front of him was his superior, he couldn't help but declare that it was over.
That weird guy only wearing pants and a headgear, that strange girl holding snacks, that sissy boy, the guy here who looked as effeminate as a girl, and finally this weird superior...
Truly, how unfortunate!
"Esdeath, it seems you have received some good subordinates." At this moment, Kaede saw that the matter had ended and also walked in.
Kurome had originally been facing away, but upon hearing this voice, she immediately froze, then turned around in disbelief and saw her older sister.
"Sister!"
Not even caring about her snacks anymore, Kurome's eyes instantly blurred, and she lunged forward.
"Yes, it's me." Kaede caught Kurome, placed one hand on Kurome's back, and stroked Kurome's hair with the other. She rested her chin on Kurome's forehead, and a smile appeared on her lips unconsciously.
"Sister, sister!" Kurome rubbed against Kaede's embrace, calling out as if she couldn't call enough.
"Yes, I'm here." Kaede answered Kurome's words tirelessly.
"As expected." Esdeath watched Kaede's smile from the side, and a smile also appeared on her lips. When she knew that Kaede's sister was under her command, Esdeath felt that she might be able to see this smile once again.
What kind of smile was this?
It was heartfelt care, gentleness, happiness, and her hard-to-erase personal style; it was truly memorable.
Pity, why can't she show a special smile to me too~
Thinking of this, Esdeath felt a bit resentful. The smiles Kaede showed her were almost all formulaic; although that style was still there, it lacked something.
"Oh, oh, what a wonderful sisterly bond! It's simply too perfect!" Doctor Stylish watched this scene from the side, cupping his face in his hands, lost in infatuation.
"Eww~" Wave's face, which had been smiling, couldn't help but darken upon hearing Doctor Stylish's words.
"I recognize her; she is a gentle person." Boros also recognized Kaede, but if his words were heard by others, he would probably be scolded to death. Kaede, gentle? Perhaps to her own people, but to enemies, she was absolutely a death god-like existence.
"You know her?" Wave couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Boros nodded, "She is also a general of this empire, and like General Esdeath, she is one of the empires strongest, the imperial rakshasa, Kaede."
"What!" At this moment, the look in Wave's eyes when looking at Kaede had changed. He completely hadn't expected that he would see two of the empires strongest in a single day!
And Kaede, immersed in the happiness of the sisters' reunion, completely ignored the surrounding gazes, holding Kurome as if she possessed everything.
