Infinite Anime Strategy Guide

"It has indeed faded. To avoid being misled by illusions, let's move back a distance."

Esdeath is indeed strong-willed, but that doesn't mean she can't assess the situation. Now that we have no idea what's happening in the fog, keeping a proper distance is the best choice.

However, after the two retreated for a while, they found that the fog had actually gotten thicker!

"No! We've entered a hallucination!" Lin Yu suddenly grabbed Esdeath.

“Although it feels like we’re flying backward, are we actually flying towards the center of the fog?” Esdeath quickly realized this as well, and looked at Lin Yu quite seriously: “From now on, let’s not communicate at all, and let’s not believe any information from the outside world. Let’s fight entirely based on our instincts!”

Lin Yu's combat experience was still not very rich, so he immediately frowned. He had never experienced fighting by feeling before. He was not like Esdeath, who had grown up hunting dangerous species since childhood. Fighting by feeling was extremely difficult.

"Tina, I'm counting on you!"

Although Lin Yu lacks sufficient combat experience, Tina, who is his kin, does!

Although Tina is only ten years old, she has carried out a lot of missions since she was a child, and her experience is no less than that of Esdeath. At this time, Tina is the best choice.

"Okay, I got it, Onii-chan."

Although Tina's voice was still soft, Lin Yu could hear the determination in her voice to reciprocate his trust.

After the greatsword 'Vampire' merged with Tina, it was no longer just an inanimate object; it could be said that Vampire was Tina's other body!

"coming!"

Tina's voice rang directly in Lin Yu's mind. Although the five senses could be confused, Tina and Lin Yu were essentially one entity, and Lin Yu did not believe that the fog could interfere with his own thoughts.

Guided by a faint, almost imperceptible force, Lin Yu unleashed a sword strike, the immense recoil nearly causing the vampire to slip from his grasp.

"Such immense power! But..." Lin Yu frowned slightly, "The one that launched the attack shouldn't be that dragon, right?"

The dragon's body was enormous, and its attacks were quite noisy. Although the mist could interfere with the five senses, it had its limits. The dragon's attacks were never undetectable, but the attack just now was completely different, as if...

"It should have been an attack launched by a creature roughly the size of an ordinary person. Could it be that the agent was also controlling other dangerous species?"

This is not good news. If it were just a giant dragon, it would be no threat since it has already been severely injured. But if there is another dangerous species, the situation is not good. Who knows if there will be a third or fourth one?

"His power even surpasses mine, the original sin of rage? This is troublesome. If only I could see it."

Lin Yu's mood became irritable. He had tried to blow away the mist with his gigantic ice-blue wings, but it had no effect. It was as if the mist was firmly attracted by something and could not be blown away at all.

"Wait, what if we use the Eye of Calamity?"

Lin Yu suddenly remembered the existence of the Eye of Calamity. Gaia called the Eye of Calamity a power with infinite possibilities. It even saved the lives of the Tina sisters last time. However, Lin Yu did not want to rely too much on the power of the Eye of Calamity, so he did not use it often. Now it seems worth a try!

Without hesitation, golden light shone in his right pupil, revealing the unique perspective of the Eye of Calamity to Lin Yu. Although Lin Yu still felt as if a veil was covering his eyes, it was much better than not being able to see anything at all before.

"It actually works!"

Lin Yu was overjoyed. He had only opened the Eye of Calamity with a try-it-out mentality, but he didn't expect it to actually work.

It's no wonder Lin Yu hadn't expected this before. The Eye of Calamity's main ability is to see the future one second ahead. In this thick fog, nothing can be seen. In Lin Yu's original imagination, even if he could see the future one second ahead, it would still be a vast expanse of white. Who knew that the Eye of Calamity could actually see through this strange fog.

Her noble golden eyes swept through the mist, and Lin Yu could clearly see Esdeath beside him with her eyes closed. Since illusions could occur in the mist, it was better not to see anything than to be disturbed. That was Esdeath's idea. The longsword in her hand was covered with cracks, indicating that Lin Yu was not the only one who had been attacked. However, to avoid receiving false information, the two did not communicate at all. Lin Yu did not hear any unusual noises either. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he might have thought that only he had been attacked.

"It seems I was right. The Eye of Calamity does indeed have the ability to see through this fog. In that case, let me see your true form!"

As Lin Yu was thinking this, he received another faint guidance from Tina. Following the direction of the guidance, a humanoid monster covered in dark green scales appeared in Lin Yu's eyes.

"What kind of monster is this? Is it a dangerous species I don't recognize?"

In the world of Akame ga Kill!, there are many types of Dangerous Beasts, but only a few are shown in the original work. Therefore, Lin Yu had no way of knowing what kind of monster this was.

"Never mind, now that I can see you, I'll just kill you!"

Lin Yu pretended that he still couldn't see his surroundings clearly, his eyes looking around aimlessly. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see that the humanoid monster hesitated for a moment before continuing to fly towards him. It probably thought that Lin Yu's golden eyes were just a bluff.

The humanoid monster accelerated and swooped down, only to be met with a slash from Lin Yu!

The fist collided with the blade, and the result was obvious: although the humanoid monster's defense was astonishing, it still could not withstand the vampire's sharpness. A huge gash was cut open in the fist, and a large amount of blood gushed out.

"You can actually see! Damn it, is it those golden eyes?"

To Lin Yu's surprise, the monster he had identified as a dangerous species actually spoke, and it was the voice of the Agent!

A look of shock appeared on the 'monster's' face, but he turned and ran as soon as he came to his senses. He knew very well that even if he merged with the dragon, he would be no match for Lin Yu, whose vision was not obstructed!

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Orpheus was filled with resentment. He had been at the forefront of all the agents, but this defeat meant he would never have another chance.

"Never mind, saving my life is the most important thing!"

Thinking this, Orpheus quickly flew away into the distance, but unfortunately, a glimpse of purple appeared at the corner of his eye.

The Flame of Sin—Pride!

Although Lin Yu didn't know that Orpheus was already considered useless, he had no intention of letting the tiger return to the mountain, so he immediately activated Pride of Pride, which had a high speed, and chased after him.

"Let's give it our all!"

Orpheus gritted his teeth. He had already witnessed Lin Yu's speed and knew he could never shake him off. Once the assimilation state ended, he would be at the mercy of others. Rather than that, he might as well fight to the death!

"While your strength is impressive, however!" Lin Yu easily dodged Orpheus's attack, a smile playing on his lips. "Your combat experience is far too weak!"

A sword thrusts out!

If Esdeath hadn't closed her eyes, she would have seen that Lin Yu simply handed over the vampire in his hand, and Orpheus smashed his forehead into it, his head being pierced through at incredible speed.

The Eye of Calamity clearly saw Orpheus's movement trajectory a second later. Lin Yu simply placed the tip of the vampire's sword in Orpheus's path, and this Proxy, whose combat experience was almost zero, ran right into it. The sneak attack initiated by him came to an end...

233. Deploy troops to the Southwest! [Two-in-one]

"Another one?"

In the capital, Lin Yu looked in a certain direction from Esdeath's mansion. A year had passed since he killed the first agent who came to this world. During this time, he had noticed a special feeling no less than ten times. The feeling was very strange, as if the world itself was warning him.

"It must be a small favor from Gaia, at least it serves as a warning."

He put down his teacup. He had not been attacked again in the past year. The agents who came to this world seemed to have disappeared into thin air. Apart from the fact that Lin Yu had noticed them when they first arrived, there was no news of them.

Esdeath's rise to power this year can be described as a mythical one. With the help of ministers and the tacit approval of General Budo, she quickly gained control of an army of 100,000. Lin Yu also secretly gained considerable power because of her.

"Have you still not found those agents you mentioned?"

Before she even appeared, her voice reached Lin Yu's ears. Although only a year had passed, girls naturally grow up quickly, and Esdeath had completely shed her childishness and become a beautiful young woman in full bloom.

The more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it may be. Esdeath was still wearing the maid outfit that Lin Yu had prepared for her, but she was beginning to possess the strong aura that she had in the original work.

"Those guys are very well hidden, and it won't be easy to find them. They probably won't show themselves until they're absolutely certain."

After the battle with Orpheus, Lin Yu chose to tell Esdeath the whole truth. Since the first Agent had already begun to act, and more Agents had descended upon this world, Lin Yu was afraid that Esdeath would be in danger if he did not tell her the whole truth.

After all, no one knows what kind of power those agents will possess!

Sometimes, the outcome of a battle is not simply a contest of strength; it is not uncommon for the weak to defeat the strong. Therefore, he chose to reveal everything.

“Sometimes I really have my doubts.” Esdeath looked up at the sky: “Are there really other worlds besides this one?”

"Haven't I already proven it?"

Lin Yu shrugged. He had taken out quite a few technological products from his personal space to prove it.

"Well, it doesn't really matter."

Esdeath's ice-blue eyes lit up with excitement: "How wonderful! Countless worlds, countless powerful beings, countless battles, how beautiful!"

In the lush green courtyard, a girl with long, ice-blue hair opens her arms as if embracing something, creating a beautiful scene. But hidden behind this beauty is a thirst for battle and slaughter!

"I'm really looking forward to it, a powerful figure just like the one who controlled the dragon before!"

Esdeath licked her lips. She had put in a lot of effort while Lin Yu was secretly searching for the Proxy. If Lin Yu's goal was simply to defeat the Proxy one by one before they could gather, Esdeath did it purely out of anticipation for the battle.

"What does the minister want with you today? Is it another one of those shady things he wants you to do?"

Although Esdeath has not explicitly stated that she has taken sides, it is an undeniable fact that she was promoted because of the minister. In the eyes of others, Esdeath is probably already regarded as the minister's henchman.

“I have already refused several times, so he has not mentioned it. This time he just wants me to send troops to fight against the foreign tribes in the southwest.”

"A foreign tribe from the southwest? They've made a move so quickly?"

Speaking of the alien race in the southwest, Lin Yu still had some impression of them. They were a race that liked to wear masks on their faces because their living environment was full of dangerous creatures, so they could be said to be a race where everyone was a soldier.

"Didn't the empire send 120,000 troops to encircle and suppress them? Why do they need you to go?"

Esdeath's existence can now be considered a trump card in the minister's hands. Apart from not helping him do those shady things, Esdeath does not resist things such as sending troops to conquer. As a trump card, it is not easily used. Unexpectedly, this time, even after a large number of troops have been dispatched, Esdeath was still sent.

"It seems the Imperial Army is in a pretty bad situation in the southwest."

The original work only briefly mentioned the existence of foreign tribes in the southwest, but did not provide any details. However, the intelligence network built by Lin Yu once reported that the empire had dispatched an army ten times larger than the foreign tribes in the southwest to carry out the campaign. Unexpectedly, even with such a disparity in troop strength, they encountered great obstacles.

"A group of pampered soldiers from the capital had already been demoralized by the local dangerous species before they even engaged in battle with the foreign tribes in the southwest. They were then ambushed by the foreign tribes who were familiar with the terrain. Now, it is unknown whether they have been completely wiped out."

Esdeath's face was filled with disdain as she spoke. It was no wonder she was so humiliated by a military force ten times stronger than hers.

"Tsk tsk, that's really useless."

There is never right or wrong in war; regardless of victory or defeat, it is all about killing. Therefore, Lin Yu would not even feel pity. The only thing he cares about right now is the situation of the proxy.

"Do you need me to come along?"

Lin Yu asked a perfunctory question, already able to guess Esdeath's answer.

"Of course not."

Esdeath's face was as confident as ever.

"They're just a bunch of chickens and dogs. I'll be back soon."

Esdeath has a strong personality, and she cannot tolerate needing Lin Yu's help to conquer a foreign race. A quick victory is enough for her!

"I see, that's just like you. But I guess I'll go with you anyway."

Esdeath raised an eyebrow: "Why?"

Would you believe me if I said I didn't want to break up with you?

Lin Yu winked at Esdeath, but the latter remained completely unmoved. She was no longer the little girl who had just left the Northern Territory a year ago. Don't underestimate her just because it's only been a year. In a place like the capital, where all sorts of people mingle, strength alone is not enough. She has grown in more than just her size!

"Okay, okay, I'm just bored staying in the capital alone, so I wanted to go for a walk with you, is that alright? I won't do anything."

Lin Yu looked helpless. If it were an ordinary little girl, she would probably be blushing by now. Unfortunately, this trick didn't work on Esdeath, the sadistic queen.

"If that's the case, it's fine to have you come along, but is it alright here in the capital?"

Lin Yu had told Esdeath that the last agent they encountered was only the weakest one, so Lin Yu's intelligence work in the capital city absolutely could not be delayed.

"It's alright, the intelligence network in the capital has already been established, so it doesn't matter whether I'm here or not, besides..."

Lin Yu, as if deliberately imitating Esdeath, revealed a signature confident smile.
