Crossover Anime: Picking up Medea at the Start

"Alright, let's go explore the first other world. The number of people going can only be decided when we first connect. And once we decide, although we can come back at any time, the number of people who can go cannot be changed."

"...And each time, besides me, there can only be a maximum of two people accompanying me."

Roland repeated this premise once more, and then looked at Medea and Baimao.

"Orange, Shiki, you two stay here for now. Since this is my first time going to another world, let Hyakko and Medea, who are effective in all aspects, accompany me."

When Roland said that, Aozaki Touko nodded in agreement.

Ryougi Shiki looked over without saying a word, but after staring at Roland for a while, she finally looked away and nodded.

Neither Bai Mao nor Medea had any objections to this.

They even thought of the fair competition agreement they had made in private, which fueled their enthusiasm!

Then Roland walked up to them, took Bai Mao's hand with his left hand and Medea's hand with his right.

Virtual Realm, Connect!

As Roland silently recited the mantra, the three of them vanished from their spot in an instant.

Roland did not bring Medea and Baimao directly to the Void Realm because at this moment the Void Realm had not consumed any Lostbelts, so there was nothing there.

He took Medea and Hyakko directly to the other world.

This was the first time that Bai Mao and Medea had experienced this feeling, but it was the second time for Roland.

The last time he had this feeling was when he traveled through time.

However, this time was different from the last. He was stronger, and since he had traveled through time on his own initiative, Roland's senses were much clearer this time.

He had always thought that he might have traveled into the body of himself in the Type-Moon universe.

At the time, he was still wondering why there was a version of himself in the Type-Moon universe.

Is my world a parallel world to the Type-Moon universe?

Impossible...

But this time he understood.

It turns out that he didn't actually travel into his own body in the Type-Moon world at all, but rather, just like this time...

During his journey, he could feel a force within him creating three identities in this world and attaching them to them!

So that's how he traveled to the Type-Moon world!

And that explains why there aren't many people you can bring, and why you can't change it.

So it turns out that time travel actually requires going through procedures!

You need your passport!

However, thanks to the identity that this power gave him, Roland received the memories associated with that identity the moment he descended, and he understood what kind of world this was.

Slash, Crimson Eyes.

This is absolutely the world!

The reason he was so certain was mainly due to his position.

The identity he was matched with this time was—Zan, the emperor of the empire in Akame ga Kill!

....

14. The Emperor of the Empire

"The late emperor has passed away, and the new emperor has ascended the throne..."

In the original Akame ga Kill!, Minister Ernest, whom the protagonist group considers their ultimate assassination target, is giving a speech in front of a group of officials, while Roland sits on the throne behind him, silently watching everything.

Medea was positioned slightly behind the throne, while the Hundred Faces were hidden in the shadows of the palace hall.

Back when they participated in the Holy Grail War, Medea had designed a special telepathic magic trick, so the three of them were watching this scene while secretly talking to each other.

"My identity is that of the emperor."

As Roland said this, Medea's somewhat shy, but mostly excited voice rang out in the voice communication channel.

"I, I am the Empress!"

Tsk!

Hearing Medea say that, Bai Mao was a little unhappy, but she quickly composed herself and then revealed the identity she had been matched with.

"I am the current commander of the Empire's assassination squad."

Oh?

After learning that Bai Mao was the commander of the assassination squad, he began to ponder.

He was given the title of emperor.

Moreover, the emperor was chosen by Ernest. Logically, the one sitting in this position should be the young emperor from the original work, who should have been very young when he ascended the throne.

However, after he took over the other person's identity, his own characteristics caused some butterfly effects in this part.

He himself became the puppet emperor appointed by Ernest.

A bit interesting~

Roland looked at everything before him and slowly smiled.

He didn't plan to stay in this world for long.

His main purpose in traveling through time was to obtain the item according to his objective, and then go back to find a way to rescue Tiamat from the Imaginary Space 590.

As for the specific plans for this world, Roland originally intended to consider this matter in detail over a long period of time.

After all, if he wants the Void to consume a part of this world, then he needs to turn that part into a Lostbelt.

Turning a piece of history into a Lostbelt is no easy feat.

In some worlds where he knows the original plot, if you were to say that you were to push the world's direction in a way that differs from the original development, then there is still a possibility.

But after that, we still need to push this flawed development towards prosperity.

This step will be very troublesome.

But now that I've been matched with the identity of the Emperor of the Empire, things are completely different!

What was the original development of this world?

It was the revolutionary army that Night Raid belonged to, which overthrew the empire after it became completely corrupt, and then established a new nation.

Then the task at hand becomes simple.

As long as the revolutionary army doesn't overthrow the empire, and the empire stops becoming corrupt, then it can develop into a prosperous one.

To accomplish this, it would be a bit complicated to match Roland with an ordinary person's identity.

But he is the emperor, and the current time period is right after he ascended the throne.

I don't know if Night Raid is still around, but it seems that Akame, Brand, and even Najenda are still within the Empire's system.

Then turning this part of history into a Lostbelt would be much simpler.

However, Roland still did not intend to complete this matter all at once.

Development inevitably takes time.

Not in a hurry.

So let's first push this world down the wrong path, then use the emperor's identity to gather what we need, and then go back.

Let's rescue Tiamat first.

and so.

"Bai Mao, send your avatar to take over the palace. You should have a lot of magic props made by Medea, right? Use your suggestion magic to see how many of these guards are actually ministers' men—if there are many, keep them for now; if there are few... then kill them."

"I see."

Bai Mao responded telepathically, and then in Roland's six-eyed vision, he could clearly see Bai Mao tossing her long purple hair and disappearing into the shadows.

Seeing this, Roland's smile widened, and he and Medea watched Minister Ernest's performance together, commenting on his behavior in their voices.

Ernest, unaware of all this, continued his exaggerated performance in front of the officials.

It was ostensibly a speech, but in reality he was making overt or covert threats against other officials.

Furthermore, regarding the fact that he might have been the one to assassinate the late emperor, although he didn't explicitly state it, he made no secret of it, intending to use this incident to show other officials who really held power in the palace!

As for letting the new emperor speak?

Does the new emperor even need to speak? Isn't it enough that Ernest speaks?

All the officials need to know is that there is still an emperor!

The new emperor... is getting a bit old, and he'll probably have his own agenda, so in Ernest's view, he's someone who needs to be put in a good talking-to.

Otherwise, would he be willing to be a puppet?

Thinking this, Ernest glanced at Medea out of the corner of his eye, and then an exaggerated smile appeared on his already unattractive face.

Yes, he's made up his mind.
