Chapter 213 [Refining Armor into the Body] Respect for the Enemy

Imperial Capital, Night, Corridor Outside the Hall.

Fang Yi looked at the assassin lady he had been waiting for for so long, who finally appeared in front of him and ended his boring task of dealing with the "attack" of Arya and her daughter.

In the other person's somewhat suspicious eyes, I gave him a grateful look, indicating that you came at the right time.

Fang Yi glanced at Arya's mother who had 'luckily' avoided Chi Tong's attack and was paralyzed on the ground by the murderous aura. She had lost control of her bladder and had lost her ability to resist. He tried his best to suppress the smile on his face to prevent himself from losing his composure.

He drew his knife and prepared for Akame's attack while pulling the trembling Arya behind him to ensure that his lip movements would not be detected by the "actress".

"Fight me for a few rounds first, and pretend to be at a disadvantage.

"I will use the fog as a cover while you get a rope and lift the woman up.

"Torture her for a while with a common knife, and then kill her after the young lady behind me witnesses our 'return of evil'."

After delivering his instructions to Miss Assassin, Fang Yi turned on [Mind Confusion] and whispered his escape plan to Arya, steadying the actress and ensuring that she would be able to witness the tragedy that followed.

"This assassin is 'not strong'. I can try to rescue your mother and escort you two out together."

Arya looked at Fang Yi's confident expression, and a trace of resentment flashed across her pretty face. She pretended to be timid and spoke in a low voice.

"These assassins come in groups. Even if you defeat her, I'm afraid it won't be able to reverse the situation. In the end, your efforts will be in vain.

"For now, just take me away and leave my mother alone.

"There's a ready carriage in the warehouse. As long as we find the carriage, we can escape the assassin's pursuit."

Obviously, when disaster was imminent, the young lady's "human skin" was about to break, and some of her bad character hidden under her "human skin" was revealed.

Fang Yi had already tasted the young lady's 'subtext' - [I don't know what mother is, take me away quickly, let's get married together.]

But Fang Yi, who had already written the script and adhered to the creed of "returning evil with evil", could not do as she wished.

Fang Yi shook his head firmly and spoke to Miss Assassin.

"You are the villains called the Shinsengumi who have been making so much noise lately, right?
“It is said that those who commit evil deeds will be retaliated with corresponding evil deeds.

“But I, Fang Yi, am not afraid of you.

"If you want to kill Miss Arya, you must step over my dead body first!"

As Fang Yi spoke, he secretly used the [Blood Demon Art·Frozen Cloud] which sacrificed the power of [Binding] in exchange for a larger range of fog, creating a fog that covered the sky.

This prevented the possibility of a master observing him and Akame playing a "fake match" and learning the flaws in his plan, while also concealing the effectiveness of Lubbock's [Imperial Weapon].

Now the only audience for this duel is Arya.

He also wanted to use the fog to tell the spies who were stalking outside the house that the [Death God in the Fog] that [Imperial Youth Fang Yi] was fighting against had arrived.

This scene of his was intended to completely clear his identity.
-
As the fog spread and the guards in the fog screamed one after another, Arya obviously realized that staying where she was and accepting Fang Yi's arrangements was the best option.

The 'actress' chosen by Fang Yi finally settled down and watched Fang Yi's swordsmanship performance and the subsequent 'repaying evil' play that Fang Yi prepared for her.

Fang Yi looked at the assassin lady, and under the cover of the fog, the two of them practiced swordsmanship tacitly.

With the experience of practicing swordsmanship at high altitude when returning to the camp after killing someone, the two men were quite familiar with each other's swordsmanship and physical fitness.

With the tacit cooperation of the two, they demonstrated to Arya a sword duel in which Fang Yi was at an advantage and Chi Tong was at a disadvantage.

After Fang Yi fought with Akagi for several rounds using the gorgeous-looking [Breath of the Sun·Strength] which had the space-certified effect of [Increasing Noble Favorability], Arya, who was forced to watch the fight between the two, finally felt a little more favorable towards Fang Yi.

Yes, this young lady in human skin has only just now broken through the 60 mark in her favorability towards Fang Yi. This is enough to show that her previous actions were all performances, and her true intentions are so bad.

In her eyes, Fang Yi, who was fighting with Chi Tong, was so powerful and brave that he should be able to help her out of trouble. He was a valuable person, so her friendship level increased a few points.

As Arya watched Fang Yi slash through Chitong's coat with a knife and force the other party to retreat, she suddenly felt a little hope of saving her mother.

But Fang Yi's scripts always start with praise and then depress, first giving hope and then destroying it.

After Arya gained a glimmer of hope in saving her family, it was time to continue demonstrating the creed of "returning evil with evil" espoused by the Shinsengumi, the organization to which the Mist Reaper belongs.

Fang Yi thickened the fog in front of him and retreated behind her under the pretext of "protecting" Arya, creating the prerequisites for Chi Tong to execute Arya's mother in front of Arya.

He was going to force this young lady to watch her mother suffer the same evil deeds that her own family had inflicted on others.

[Do you enjoy torturing others? Do you enjoy watching others being tortured? Then make an appetizer with your mother!]

In less than half a minute, after sensing that Chi Tong had completed the preliminary work of "repaying evil", Fang Yi manipulated the mist to reveal the figure of the assassin lady and the execution scene.

In just a moment, the assassin used her increasingly skilled rope skills to hang Arya's mother, whose lower body was still dripping with water and incontinence, upside down like a sow.

Chi Tong took out a dagger and began to cut up Arya's mother like cutting up livestock, as if looking for a way to slaughter and torture her.
-
Fang Yi made an angry gesture and cursed.

"Is this all you have?
"You can't beat me, so you attack a 'weak woman'?"

After saying this, Fang Yi didn't stop talking. He added another sentence using lip language.

【Increase the efforts! 】

What answered Fang Yi was Chi Tong's increasingly skilled and precise swordsmanship, as well as the assassin lady's cold eyes that were like the gaze of the god of death, without any emotional fluctuations, and the strong murderous aura she released.

The assassin lady moved her wrist, and the dagger in her hand peeled off the clothes on Arya's mother one by one like peeling an onion, revealing a plump and attractive body.

But it was obvious that Miss Assassin was not planning to give Fang Yi any benefits, but was instead planning to carry out her evil deeds with precise knife strikes.

The dagger in her hand flashed, bringing with it a cold light, followed by pieces of human skin falling off.

Every cut made by the assassin lady's knife was extremely delicate, neither fatal nor painful enough.

Arya's mother had lost the strength to struggle and her whole body was shaking like an epileptic patient, but she could not make a sound because of fear.

Her face was filled with unprecedented fear and despair.

*
Arya looked at her mother being tortured and felt a chill running from the soles of her feet to her heart, causing her to tremble involuntarily.

Arya knew the look on her mother's face all too well.

This is exactly what they saw on their "prey" who were tortured and abused by the family in the huge prison-style warehouse built specifically for them in this luxurious manor in the suburbs.

Arya's family and the guards worked together to trick these rootless country folk back home, just like they had deceived Disma, and then tortured them to death.

And now, Arya, watching her mother's flesh falling and blood dripping onto the ground, smelling the strong smell of rust in the air, felt a phantom pain rising from her body.

It was as if it was not her mother who was being torn apart, but her.

The string of her mind, called sanity, seemed to be on the verge of collapse. She slumped to the ground, like a rag doll that had been ravaged and discarded on the roadside, having lost its soul in a short period of time.

Looking at Arya who was about to be broken, Fang Yi felt that it was enough.

He pretended to recover from the shock and began to act.

First, Wen Sheng reminded him in a gentle tone in his ear.

"Miss, we have to go. The fog is getting thicker." The enemy couldn't do anything to me and seemed to have given up.

“Who knows how many enemies there are in the fog.

"Under the current circumstances, I can only prioritize taking the young lady out of this residence and seek help from others."

Arya regained her consciousness briefly after hearing Fang Yi's words, nodded vigorously, and spoke in a panic.

“It’s all up to you!
"There's a carriage in the warehouse to the east. Let's go!"

[This is what I’m waiting for! 】

Fang Yi nodded, holding Arya, who was about to lose the ability to move, jumped with all his strength, broke the glass window in the corridor, and ran towards the warehouse.

There is still a real battle waiting for him.

Through vision sharing, he discovered that Disma had completed the execution of Arya's father and most of the guards who had assisted him, and was rushing to the warehouse.

And [Lubbock] seemed to have started fighting with the reincarnation named "Youyu".

Looking at this reincarnationist who was almost integrated with the armor made of corpse, Fang Yi had a premonition that this reincarnationist had very useful skills that were worth learning from.

He might be able to make better use of the [Evil Ghost Haunting] that had been shattered into pieces and combine it with his own body-refining technique.

Fang Yi looked at the [Enemy's Respect] that had completed its evolution in the previous world and felt that 'Swimming Fish' could produce gold coins that were useful for his explosion points.
-
Achievement:

The enemy's respect

Achievement Effect 1:

After you kill enemies in the mission world, there is a small chance of getting more loot.

During combat, if you gain the enemy's recognition, there's a chance that your friendliness level will increase, and you'll gain access to their highly skilled skills and knowledge.

Achievement Effect 2:

After killing a reincarnation who has murderous intentions towards you, it will be easier to extract high-value items from his personal space.

After using your superb skills to kill a Reincarnator who has murderous intentions towards you, there is a chance that you will obtain knowledge related to the other party's highest value skills.

Comment: The enemy's strength will eventually become your strength, and death is never the end of the enemy.
-
This achievement will obviously help Fang Yi get more rewards from enemies.

At the same time, Fang Yi felt that [Imperial Youth Fang Yi] should also have achieved some achievements.

In the revolutionary army camp, the head of Yuyu, who was also a member of the Shinsengumi, was a good military achievement.

At the same time, he slightly dispersed the fog, preparing to reveal some false information to the spies sent by Gozizi.

In order to gain some advantage in the upcoming [Death in the Fog] counter-encirclement and suppression campaign.
-
minutes ago.

'Yuyu' and Lubbock pushed open Arya's warehouse.

This young man with sallow skin, bulging eyes, a thin figure and a somewhat gloomy temperament, and the green-haired and somewhat unruly Lubbock, after easily killing several guards like cutting melons and vegetables, went to the family's "slaughterhouse" as planned to see if there were any survivors who needed to be saved.

Looking at the corpses in the warehouse, displayed like pieces of pork on hooks at a market, filled with sinister auras, Youyu felt his premonition was correct.

【I am indeed a lucky person. 】

The green-haired [Imperial Weapon User] named Lubbock assigned himself the task of killing the guards with him and checking whether there were any survivors in the warehouse, and asked Akagi to kill Arya.

'Youyu' was somewhat reluctant and wanted to refuse.

Although you can get the mission rewards in the reincarnation space as long as you participate, the specific rewards will change according to your mission contribution.

He did not directly participate in the battle to kill Arya, nor did he give any command or plan. Although the mission of [Assassinating the Evil Noble [Elena]] would also be completed, the reward he received would be greatly reduced due to the judgment of the space.

Considering that he still had the task of collecting information about the strong men in the revolutionary army camp, 'Youyu' was still scared.

But seeing so many burly corpses in front of him, they died with their eyes open, and therefore had a lot of resentment and accumulated a lot of evil spirits.

Upon hearing that Lubbock wanted to cremate him and let the deceased rest in peace, "Youyu" realized that he had to turn against him.

These corpses filled with evil spirits and resentment before him were the perfect materials to take his [Ten Thousand Corpse Armor], which was cultivated through the [Corpse Sacrifice Method] and was tightly integrated with his body, almost like "refining armor into the body", to a higher level.

These things that are about to make me take off must not be destroyed by the other party!
Having made up his mind, 'Youyu' pretended to agree with Lubbock's words. Taking advantage of the opportunity to place fuel, he quickly and forcibly refined a lot of corpses, increasing his own power in a short period of time.

Sensing that his body had absorbed a lot of high-quality materials, and the evil spirit on his body had become condensed and extremely heavy, the [Armor of Ten Thousand Corpses], 'Youyu' was filled with unprecedented confidence.

With the blessing of the secret method of [Refining Armor into the Body], once this armor filled with evil spirit came out, in addition to gaining extremely strong defensive power, each of his attacks would be accompanied by an undefended area-of-effect evil spirit.

The Lubbock who used the silk thread and the Akagi who used the knife could no longer pose any threat to him.

[In order to increase my strength, I must turn against Lubbock and further strengthen my [Ten Thousand Corpse Armor]]

"Then leave this Akame here too! These two [Imperial Tool Users] will serve as my qualifications for joining the [Ministers' Camp].

He was fully confident that he could kill these two [Imperial Weapon Users] quickly.

He felt that with the blessing of the secret method of [Refining Armor into the Body], he had no rival except for the strong man who could blow up the biological [Imperial Weapon] [Hundred-Handed Giant] with one punch and smash the four Rakshasa ghosts with one punch.

[It's safe! I won't run into that powerful reincarnationist, will I?]

Then, Youyu discovered that a familiar mist was floating in the house.

【It's a coincidence.】

Yuyu's heart was beating fast. He looked at the absent-minded Lubbock and launched an attack, ready to end the battle quickly.

However, he didn't expect that Lubbock seemed to have been on guard and easily avoided his determined sneak attack, turning the battle that he expected to be resolved quickly into a long and tedious tug-of-war.

After several exchanges, seeing the murderous spirit entering his body, his face as pale as paper, and about to lose the ability to resist, "Youyu" could not feel a trace of joy in his heart.

He had sensed that a man he was very familiar with seemed to appear in the distant fog.

The confidence that rose in his heart due to obtaining the stronger [Ten Thousand Corpses Armor] disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by a growing fear that almost made him lose the will to fight.

He turned his head and saw the man he least wanted to see.

As the fog dissipated, Fang Yi appeared in the sight of Youyu and the spy, holding Arya.

He put Arya down, gave the waiting enemy a standard smile, and drew his knife.

At the same time, he also said something in his heart that only he knew.

The climax of [The Ambitious Empire Wall·Act 1] is about to begin.

　The stock price went up and I was in a good mood.

　　I will take time to update more on weekends, and also write some erotic chapters as extras for the book friends who have been subscribing and supporting me.
