"Ah ah ah ah—"
Everyone present screamed in terror, instinctively wanting to escape, but found their bodies completely unresponsive.
"This, this is Cross Tail!" The Revolutionary Army Leader looked in horror at the silk threads binding him to the chair, rendering him immobile.
"Cross Tail! It's, it's Night Raid!" The Revolutionary Army Chief of Staff shrieked.
"What a joke!"
When they fully came to their senses, they found seven more people in the meeting room, each looking at them with grim eyes.
"Night Raid! What are you doing! Have you betrayed us?!"
The Revolutionary Army Leader didn't dwell on how they suddenly appeared; all he knew now was that the assassin group the Revolutionary Army had cultivated was now trying to kill them.
Even he, the leader who founded the Revolutionary Army, was trembling with fear of death.
"Betrayal?" Leone heard the word and instantly activated her Teigu in anger, entering her Lion form, her hands transforming into lion claws.
She gripped the Revolutionary Army Leader's head, smiling twistedly.
"It's you old geezers who betrayed us, isn't it!"
"You used us! Yet you old geezers are doing the same things as the corrupt Imperial nobles."
The Revolutionary Army Leader felt his head about to be crushed, crying out in pain: "I am the Revolutionary Army Leader!
We nurtured you! How dare you, how dare you!"
"How dare we? I'd like to ask, how dare you insects!" Leone slowly applied force, and then the cracking sound of bones breaking was heard.
"Ah ah ah ah ah! No, don't kill me!" The Revolutionary Army Leader shrieked, a foul, fishy smell suddenly emanating from him.
—Mine. She had seen this Revolutionary Army Leader before; at that time, her impression of him was that of a gentle, kind old man. She never expected that to be just a disguise.
Now, in her eyes, this person was covered in black aura, which was far deeper than that of the two Teigu Users before.
Crack!
Along with the sound of a watermelon being crushed, the screams disappeared.
"Ptooey! So dirty!" Leone shook her hands.
"No, don't kill me! Mine! It's me, I adopted you back then!" An old Revolutionary Army cadre trembled in fear.
"I thank you for letting me live, so I won't let you suffer." Mine expressionlessly raised her Teigu.
"You beast! If I had known this day would come, I should have sold you to the Western Kingdom as a slave!" The old Revolutionary Army cadre cursed hysterically, using the foulest language possible.
Mine closed her eyes, pressed the Teigu's button, and a beam of light pierced through the old man's head, making his entire head vanish instantly.
"Sorry, you guys go ahead." Mine left the meeting room somewhat dazed, having personally killed the person who adopted her. Even though she knew this person was an utterly evil villain, her heart still felt heavy.
"Funeral!"
Arichi expressionlessly swung her sword, slicing through three necks.
Pfft! Three red fountains appeared.
Arichi continued to charge at the screaming Revolutionary Army cadres, but before she could, she was caught by the back of her neck.
"Whoa, Arichi, wait a moment, don't kill them all yourself, leave some for us."
Leone grinned, looking at the others: "Everyone take a few."
"Okay." Lubbock nodded, also grinning excitedly. He pulled the silk threads with both hands,
The silk threads instantly wrapped around the necks of two Revolutionary Army cadres.
"Goodbye, former superiors. Take a deep breath, don't scream, it won't hurt at all."
Pfft! "My turn!" Brand directly swung his fist, punching through a cadre's chest, spilling yellow, red, and white fluids everywhere.
"Snip." Sheele instinctively placed her large scissors on a Revolutionary Army cadre's shoulder, and amidst screams, snipped off a large chunk.
"Ah ah ah ah ah—Devils! You devils!"
"Devils? We are being called devils by devils, ha ha ha." Najenda laughed, her emotions very complex.
Without another word, she clenched her mechanical fist and smashed it towards the screaming Revolutionary Army cadre, venting her anger at being used and forced to aid evil.
Soon, all the Revolutionary Army cadres were killed.
After doing all this, they did not leave. Instead, they began to eliminate those who were deeply sinful, starting from the central fortress, like the King of Hell marking off names.
Soon, the entire Revolutionary Army headquarters began to descend into chaos.
"Who! Who is the enemy! Come out! Everyone come out!"
"Devils! They're all devils! They're devils!"
"The leader and the cadres are all dead! They're all dead!"
The Revolutionary Army soldiers couldn't find the enemy anywhere, only seeing their comrades mysteriously killed one after another.
In less than a day, all the soldiers in the entire Revolutionary Army headquarters had fled, screaming and crying, fearing they would be next.
The entire Revolutionary Army headquarters, apart from scattered corpses, was so quiet that not even an animal remained.
"They've all fled—what a pity, so many sinful people weren't killed." Brand shook his aching arm and sighed. He didn't know how many he had killed, but at least several thousand.
The Revolutionary Army headquarters was simply a den of iniquity; the number of sinful people was almost half of the total.
It seemed those guys were mostly involved in the Revolutionary Army's illicit businesses.
"The Revolutionary Army headquarters is finished, so the entire Revolutionary Army in the south will quickly disintegrate."
"Let's go, we're going back." Leone put her hands on her hips.
She never imagined they could achieve such an exaggerated feat; seven people directly annihilated a major force occupying an entire province.
Imperial Capital "General Esdeath has returned."
"The Great General has returned, let me go see her quickly!"
"Move aside, don't push!"
The Imperial Capital's citizens crowded both sides of the streets, watching the triumphant and formidable army return. Most looked at General Esdeath, who was leading, with expectant eyes.
"General Esdeath!" Someone shouted, followed by a chorus of "General Esdeath!"
General Esdeath smiled and waved. At this moment, she was completely different from when she was slaughtering the allied forces of foreign tribes in the north. She spoke to the army behind her.
"Take out the spoils of war and distribute them to the citizens."
"Yes, General!" The soldiers shouted loudly, and after shouting, they scattered the treasures from over twenty carts onto the citizens on both sides of the street.
The citizens excitedly scrambled for them.
The reason the Imperial Capital's citizens liked General Esdeath was primarily because she always distributed a portion of the spoils of war to them after every victory, and she was approachable, even gentle if encountered on the street.
"Hehehe, scatter it, scatter it. Anyway, in a few days, all these treasures will be mine." Ernest stood on the palace walls, watching the army continuously scattering treasures, smiling greedily.
That woman, General Esdeath, had no interest in treasures at all, only wanted to fight. But it was a pity that she only gave him a portion of the spoils she brought back.
However, the treasures that reached the hands of those commoners would soon be collected by him through various taxes, hehehe.
