“Hopefully this will make him calm down. Otherwise, the whole empire will be finished, sigh.”
Najenda sighed deeply. Now she understood why there were so many incompetent monarchs in the country. Governing a nation was truly too difficult.
Just this afternoon and evening alone had her completely overwhelmed.
“Don’t worry, I’ll protect you, even if it costs me my life.”
Lubbock made a solemn promise. Even if everyone else here had to die, he would ensure his General lived!
What was Lubbock’s reason for joining Night Raid?
He thought, perhaps it was the day the General saved him. He had decided to fight for her that day.
The good news came too suddenly. Akame suddenly brought back a mysterious powerhouse who swept away all the obstacles in the Imperial Capital.
Hearing this news, Lubbock felt like he could fly.
He thought, he felt grateful to the mysterious powerhouse.
But the powerhouse was really too handsome, giving him a sense of crisis. He knew that the General was actually the mastermind behind the scenes. In this regard, he was at a great disadvantage.
Fortunately, the mysterious powerhouse seemed to have no interest in the General.
On the other side, Lin Xuan appeared in the sky above the rebel army's base, looking down at the wicked rebels below. Lin Xuan's eyes grew even colder.
“No wonder they’re so daring. They’ve gotten used to bullying people.”
Lin Xuan's subconscious mind entered the chat group.
The chat group’s livestream had been closed in the afternoon, but the discussions within the group never stopped. Asuna and the other three were seriously discussing the meaning of Lin Xuan’s words from earlier that morning in the group.
Lin Xuan was always aware of this, but he never spoke. Everyone had different thoughts, and he didn't need to force his thoughts onto others.
He was also too lazy to do so.
After watching for a while, Lin Xuan opened the group livestream.
【Lin Xuan: You guys want to see my full strength? I’ll let you see it now.】
【Shiori Yotsuya: Huh, Lin Xuan, why did you suddenly start a livestream? Are you serious? But wouldn’t your full strength destroy Akame’s world?】
【Asuna: What are those people below doing? They’ve been burning, killing, and plundering. Are they bandits? You’re not going to kill them all, are you, Lin Xuan?】
【Shinobu Kochou: Even if they are bandits, they don't deserve this, right?】
【Akame: Lin Xuan, the vice-leader of the rebel army was just killed by Lubbock. Can you not take it out on Night Raid afterwards?】
【Lin Xuan: Don't worry, since I’ve come out, I’ve already decided to give you this face. We’re group members, so it’s not going to come to that. I won't use my full power, but 50% of my strength should be enough for you to see what a Fourth Order really is.】
【Asuna: Killing? What happened this afternoon and evening? Why does Akame seem so panicked now?】
【Shiori Yotsuya: Aren’t they rebel soldiers, not bandits? What’s the difference between their actions and those of bandits?】
【Lin Xuan: There’s no difference. I don't want to care about them, but their organization makes me very unhappy. So, they all need to disappear.】
After saying this, Lin Xuan didn’t pay any more attention to the chat group.
In the palace.
Akame's little hand tightened.
“He's going to make his move!”
“Akame! Can you see what’s happening on Lin Xuan’s side?”
Najenda anxiously came to Akame's side.
Akame took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.
“He said he wouldn't take it out on us.”
“That’s good.”
This sentence reassured Najenda. She felt the strength in her body suddenly disappear. If Lubbock wasn't holding her up, she probably would have collapsed on the ground.
“As mortals who challenge the Demon King, I admire your courage. But this is not your reason for challenging the Demon King. Therefore, die, White Horse.”
Lin Xuan’s voice was calm and indifferent, as if the rebels below were not people but thousands of livestock waiting to be slaughtered.
As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking, a small ball of light appeared in front of him. Just like last time, it contained a small white horse galloping inside.
Only this time, the white horse was much faster.
The orb quickly detached from Lin Xuan's side and fell towards the ground.
It touched the ground in an instant.
At the moment of impact, the orb rapidly expanded, instantly enveloping the entire base.
Within the light barrier, the angry white horse split in two, then in four, and in an instant, it transformed into a thousand horses.
A thousand horses devoured everything they could see.
The light became more and more dazzling, and the group livestream was enveloped by the intense light, obscuring any action on the other side.
But the four people in front of the livestream could feel the earth-shattering momentum through the chat group’s broadcast.
【Asuna: Is this the casual attack of a Fourth Order? It’s still not over yet! It’s scary.】
【Shiori Yotsuya: If I could do this, wouldn’t I be fearless against any evil spirit?】
【Shinobu Kochou: Even Muzan Kibutsuji wouldn't be able to withstand this attack, right?】
【Akame: Lin Xuan, thank you. If this attack had landed on the Imperial Capital, we would all be dead.】
Shinobu Kochou was certain that Muzan Kibutsuji would definitely not be able to withstand this attack.
Legend had it that there was a legendary swordsman during the Sengoku Period who could firmly suppress Muzan Kibutsuji, even nearly killing him.
But Muzan Kibutsuji escaped at a critical moment by splitting into many pieces. Even though the legendary swordsman fought hard to eliminate them, ultimately, 300 of the fragments escaped.
If Muzan Kibutsuji had faced this, he wouldn’t have been able to escape with a single fragment!
Soon, the violent tremors reached the Imperial Capital.
Everyone in the palace could feel the ground shaking violently.
“What in the world is happening? Is it an earthquake? Or is it a large-scale attack on the Imperial Capital by Dangerous Species? Could it be…?”
“That’s right, it's him. He didn't even raise his hand. He just said a few words, and the rebels were all eliminated there. He’s the one who made this commotion.”
Akame nodded with a complex expression.
“It seems he wants to give us a warning. No, Lubbock, go look around secretly and see if there are any rebel remnants. If there are, kill them all!”
Najenda instructed.
At this point, she dared not be complacent. Akame was right. He truly has the power to destroy this world!
There must not be any mistakes from now on!
The empire cannot afford any more mistakes.
