With the ability to transform, I am a judge.

You can't blame them for that, because Yang Li herself thought her current outfit was very strange, making her look like a mummy...

That's right, the person was completely wrapped in bandages, even the head, which only had a minor scratch and wasn't seriously injured, was wrapped up so that only the eyes, nose and mouth were exposed.

His left hand, severely strained and weak, was in a splint hanging in front of him, while his right hand gripped a cane that was clearly newly made.

In fact, although Yang Li's injuries appeared serious, most of them were minor superficial wounds, except for the large amount of cold air entering his body.

Esdeath didn't even have a chance to kill her in close combat before she was brutally beaten by Esdeath in her 'Berserk' state, and Esdeath almost kicked her poop out.

But she still couldn't escape the fate of becoming a mummy. The coldness in her body seemed to have dissipated because of the medicinal bath, but that silly girl Akame still stubbornly helped her wrap bandages.

Unfortunately, Yang Li was still asleep when he was entangled, otherwise he would never have surrendered so easily.

Even in her current state, she's no match for Akame...

“Esdeath is undoubtedly a very troublesome enemy. The mortality rate against her is very high, so she must be treated properly.”

This was the explanation Akame gave when Yang Li first asked her why, and Yang Li also thought it was undoubtedly correct, but...

With the regenerative abilities of the hybrid, she felt that even though she was still far from being at full strength, she should at least have 40% to 50% of her original combat power. This mummy-like recovery method was really unnecessary.

"Hahaha~ I can't take it anymore, I'm too tired to laugh, help me up, you little guy."

"Who are you calling shorty?! Ugh..."

Chelsea, who was laughing so hard she almost choked, struck up a conversation with Mine, who was also laughing unrestrainedly, and successfully used her cunning and sharp tongue to provoke the proud Mine.

With her twin ponytails seemingly about to take flight, Mine bared her teeth at Chelsea, giving off a rather defeated vibe...

After being inhumanely wrapped up like a mummy, and then ridiculed by his companions, Yang Li could only say "Holy shit!" to express his frustration.

(Unfortunately, I'm uncultured; all I can say is "Holy crap!")

"That's enough, Kurohime. Why are you looking at me like that? I'm fine. Esdeath, that crazy woman, doesn't have the ability to kill me."

"Yan...it's good that you're alright."

That fleeting smile left Yang Li frozen in place, lost in thought.

The others were also surprised, after all, it was extremely difficult to find any change in expression on the faces of the two sisters, Kurome and Akame, and it was even more impossible for them to do so for the time being.

That smile just now stunned everyone; it was so beautiful, like an angel descending to earth.

What a romantic thing it is for an angel who descends to earth because of a mortal to fold their wings and forever protect that mortal.

According to everyone's observation, only Yang Li himself could occasionally elicit some emotions from Hei Tong, hence everyone's expressions of curiosity and gossip.

"If Yan dies, this world has no reason to exist... It would be better to destroy it from the beginning."

While Yang Li was somewhat moved by the fact that he spoke of such a terrifying thing with such a calm expression, everyone else had a look of utter disbelief.

Does the death of one person mean the demise of an entire world? It's truly terrifying to have a dark side to one's personality. At this moment, everyone placed this usually harmless little guy and Akame on the same dangerous line.

With a forceful jerk, the seemingly sturdy bandages instantly tore apart, relieving the mummy-like tightness.

Under the stare of Chi Tong, Yang Li gently rubbed Hei Tong's head and said something in a very affectionate voice that made Hei Tong's eyes light up.

"I'll make you some strawberry cake. That's one of my specialties, something I learned to make. It's something a certain doctor would definitely love."

"doctor?"

"Oh well, I don't mind..."

Yang Li easily changed the subject, then looked at the others, her meaning clear in her eyes.

"Hey hey, me too!"

"I want to eat that too..."

"Everyone has some. I'll go do it now. Everyone else, go do your own thing."

The first person with a rather lively voice was Chelsea, who had brought Yang Li back to the base. She even winked at Yang Li for the strawberry cake that sounded so appealing.

However, as expected, Kurohime silently drew Yatsufusa, her calm black pupils gazing at the slightly trembling Chelsea.

The second one was Chi Tong, who had been staring intently at Yang Li. Originally, she was going to subdue Yang Li and then tie him up in a mummy outfit, but she immediately succumbed to the temptation of food.

Calmly waving her hand to indicate that there was no problem, Yang Li rolled up her sleeves and headed towards the kitchen. Fortunately, she still had cake-making ingredients in her 'savings backpack'.

Having once been a dedicated player herself, she naturally had a love-hate relationship with that game that required both spending money and grinding, but she still couldn't help but get involved in it.

As for whether it's Gudako or Gudako-sensei? Without a doubt, it's Gudako! After all, even in a game, can you really watch a guy flirt with your girl?

Fate/Grand Order... *sighs softly*. If only I could have another slice of strawberry cake...

Because Hei Tong likes snacks and sweets, Yang Li used her signature skills that she had learned in the past, which in turn evoked some memories.

I remembered a BBA (BMW, Benz, Audi) review of the game I was playing...

"Information transmission from another timeline? That's interesting. If you understand it well, it might even be helpful for your future."

The purple-haired BBA, speaking in a way that was difficult to understand, had eyes that gleamed with boundless wisdom and a tone of almost certainty.

Looking back now, Yang Li felt that the guy probably knew a lot of things from the beginning, but he always spoke vaguely, which made people uncomfortable.

Gently open your clenched fist, and cards float on it. If you had the power, could you keep them all by your side?

Although it feels rather selfish, how wonderful it would be to be with them and go on adventures with their help.

Go save those you want to save, go kill those you utterly despise, go see different scenery, and experience different world cultures...

For all of this to happen, timely sacrifices are necessary, and for this purpose, we must try to implement a plan that is enough to allow us to escape unscathed.

But before that, you need to choose someone who can threaten you, and then use that person to fade from everyone's sight...

As for who this person should be? In this world, is there anyone more suitable than Esdeath? She's a monster even more monstrous than many contractors...

PS: 1. This is the second update today. I suddenly moved the foreshadowing for later chapters to this one, entirely due to the inexplicable emotions brought about by the strawberry cake...

2. There's one more chapter, I'll update it before 1 a.m., I can stay up a little later.

Chapter 265, Section 271: The Night Raid Framed

Chapter 265: The Night Raid Framed

Esdeath returned to the Imperial Capital and led a portion of her army directly into the inner city. The news reached Night Raid almost immediately.

After receiving the information, Najenda immediately began a thorough investigation, but then a problem arose: the capital's counterattack against the night raid.

Because Night Raid had always been engaged in assassination, Minister Ernest simply threw a large amount of mud at Night Raid.

Because a difficult political enemy wanted to return to the capital, Ernest simply told Esdeath directly. Esdeath, who was also interested in the Night Raid, did some things that were enough to trigger it.

All three of his Beast Masters were mobilized, and with the power of the three Imperial Arms users, they easily killed the opponent whom the minister valued.

While eliminating potential adversaries, they also left a lot of leaflets at the crime scene. These leaflets were marked with the Night Raid symbol, and they usually leave some after punishing the criminals.

These leaflets caused the public's trust in Night Raid to plummet to rock bottom in a very short time.

The masses are easily swayed and easily follow the crowd. Those who lack power and wisdom find it difficult to discern these things.

In response to Esdeath and Ernest's wicked plans, Night Raid deployed its forces to protect the loyal officials.

Before that, the team was divided into groups. Since there were three targets to protect, the night raid was simply divided into four teams, one of which had a separate mission.

It is said that the new base was selected a long time ago and is now ready to be completely built.

It is said that when Najenda returned to the rear last time, a Teigu user in the Revolutionary Army who could predict good and bad fortune indicated that the previously chosen location was problematic and could easily lead to trouble.

As it turned out, things were indeed very bad. Shortly after everyone had left during the night raid, Esdeath led a large army to attack.

Those enormous icebergs that can be seen from miles away are probably Esdeath's creations. Perhaps she's upset because she couldn't catch her target?

After making all the preparations in advance, Yang Li stood on what looked like a luxurious dragon boat and gradually gave up thinking...

Ahem, Yang Li was just considering how to use Esdeath. This girl is practically a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex; if not handled properly, she could die on the spot.

"What are you thinking about? Aren't you going in to get something to eat?"

Brand's familiar voice rang out beside her. Yang Li's gaze drifted slightly, but there was nothing at the source of the voice, just an empty wooden deck.

She picked up the strawberry cake she had prepared in advance and ate it bite by bite. To be honest, her cooking skills were much better than those of the chefs on the dragon boat.

"Forget it, those nobles are annoying to look at. Let Tatsumi handle it by himself."

"Haha, what an irresponsible senior assassin... Tatsumi is working hard too. I have a feeling he'll grow to a level above mine sooner or later."

Yang Li didn't respond to Brand's words, but he knew how talented Tatsumi was; after all, he was the protagonist of a world.

Although the protagonist's halo in anime can't even guarantee survival until the finale, there's no doubt that Tatsumi's talent is truly enviable.

Even in the original work, Tatsumi later seemed to be more suited to the Imperial Armor "Demon Possession: Control Armor" than Brand, as it is said that anyone who is not suited to it may die just by wearing it.

This night raid was divided into four groups. Yang Li, Brand, Mine, and Tatsumi were in one group, which made Kuroko quite unhappy at the time.

The girl wanted to be on the same team as her sister, but she also wanted to be with Yang Li. In the end, she was persuaded by Yang Li (Cake Temptation.JPG).

After all, the strength of the team needs to be evenly distributed; otherwise, if the weakest team encounters Esdeath, they probably won't even be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive.

Akame and Kurome went to a civil official's office, where the situation was better, because both of them were super-powerful Imperial Arms users, second only to Yang Li.

Yang Li had also scouted out the location where the spatial imperial artifact would arrive in advance, so that he could provide support at any time.

Chelsea, Leone, Lubbock, and Hill went to the farthest place, and Yang Li also handed over the stone with the spatial imperial artifact mark to Chelsea, the leader, in advance.

"Then I'll continue patrolling. See you later."

See you later.

Brand noticed that Yang Li was staring at the sea in a daze, so he simply greeted her and then tactfully left.

Wearing the Imperial Arms, Brand possesses the ability to temporarily become invisible and stealthy, a secret technique inherent in the Imperial Arms itself.

The other ability, infinite adaptation and infinite evolution, is not included in the secret technique; that is the ability possessed by the Dangerous Species, which are the raw materials.

As Yang Li put the last bite of the sweet cake into his mouth, he was unsure whether the Three Beast Envoys would still appear here, since the contractors from the Empire would definitely cause trouble.

This is a great opportunity to obtain the protagonist's pre-ordered Imperial Arm, [Demon Possession: Control Armor]. Most people probably wouldn't let it pass by, even though this Imperial Arm has major flaws.
