Let's get back to the point. It will be easier to talk to them once you understand their personalities. After all, if you start a conversation with them without knowing their personalities, it will easily make them angry, and you may even reveal that you don't remember meeting them before.
Now that he has a good understanding of the other person's personality, as long as the other person doesn't take the initiative to mention the things related to their last meeting, then Koizumi will not be afraid at all. He just needs to not answer the other person's words without thinking. Fortunately, Koizumi's IQ is online in most cases, so he won't answer questions without thinking and then anger the other person.
Slowly, Guquan followed Hei Tong and the others into the imperial palace. Looking at the glittering golden palaces, Guquan felt an indescribable feeling within him...Luxury? No, this is how a palace should be, so how can it be luxurious? If it doesn't convey status, then what's the point of building a palace? But what exactly is this feeling?
Just looking at it and moving forward gave him a very strange feeling. It wasn't like excitement or anything like that, but more of a dull feeling. This feeling made Koizumi feel very uncomfortable.
"Hu~~~" Koizumi took a breath and covered his chest with his right hand, seemingly trying to relieve his depression.
"What's wrong, Gu Quan?" Hei Tong seemed to notice something was wrong with Gu Quan and asked quickly.
Hei Tong was very concerned about her new friend, and unlike other people, she was not very excited about entering the palace. She was only excited about becoming stronger and then rescuing her sister.
"It's okay..." Koizumi smiled faintly, forcing himself to calm down.
Hei Tong nodded slightly without saying anything more, his eyes focused on the palace in front of him.
"Are you excited?" Koizumi cast aside the gloom in his heart and looked at the black pupil in front of him with a smile.
For Hei Tong, the most important person is always her sister, so now there is a way to reconcile with her sister, which may be the most exciting thing for Hei Tong.
Seeing his friends happy makes Koizumi happy too, although...
Glancing at the palace again, Gu Quan let out a wry smile.
I thought it was a place that was difficult to get close to, but I somehow got in this way.
If Reimu and Qin Xin knew about this, I wonder what they would think...
"I'm really excited. Although I'm happy to be noticed by the general, I'm even happier because I finally have a way to get my sister back to me, and even to have her stay with me forever..."
There was a strong excitement in Hei Tong's eyes. He was really a child who was easily satisfied.
Yes, she is still a child, a child who cannot leave her sister.
Although she can make friends normally, she cannot achieve independence from her sister, so in Koizumi's eyes, she is just a child.
But then again, I am just a child to some extent.
What's the difference between a child who doesn't know what to do after leaving Chaldea and a child who doesn't know what to do after leaving his parents?
However, let children be children. It is much better than living in this world without knowing what to do.
At least I still have a goal to achieve, I just need to know this...
Chapter 53 Bud and Esdeath
"Hmph! You're still the same, Esdeath! It turns out that you are the biggest time bomb in this empire! You'd better not let me find any evidence against you!" A middle-aged man who looked very stubborn and old-fashioned walked out of Esdeath's house. He was about forty years old and was wearing heavy armor. The white cloak behind him fluttered in the breeze. The aura he exuded made his presence extremely strong, and every step he took was extremely solid.
Just standing there and looking at him, Koizumi couldn't help but lower his head slightly.
With this kind of terrifying aura, I guess only Esdeath can compete with him, but what does he mean by this sentence?
Is General Esdeath the empire's biggest ticking time bomb? Did General Esdeath do something?
But then again, was it an illusion? Koizumi felt that the aura of the man before him was somewhat familiar.
Sigh... Koizumi couldn't help but sigh. If it weren't for his lack of strength, Koizumi would have remembered the aura very clearly long ago. It was a pity that he only started to train his strength madly after leaving the empire.
It's a little late after all... Thinking of this, Koizumi glanced at his hands, feeling a little heavy in his heart.
Although it's a little late, if I train hard from now on, sooner or later I will be able to fight alongside Reimu and others.
Gu Quan felt this deeply in his heart, so there was no need to be so depressed now. Instead of being depressed, he should work hard to become stronger, remember this deep resentment in his heart, and then turn it all into motivation to become stronger.
Shaking his head slightly, Koizumi put all these thoughts behind him and glanced at the imposing man.
It seems that he came here to talk to Esdeath and ended up having a falling out... Esdeath does not seem to be an easy person to get along with, but she seems to be very friendly to Kuroneko, which is a bit strange.
"You're still the same, old stubborn man! You're blindly loyal to the point of ignorance! Also, don't you understand what I, Esdeath, think? It's so boring to be in this empire where there's no war or rivals to fight against me!"
Esdeath slowly walked out of the luxurious mansion, but the words she said made Hei Tong and others freeze.
Did he and the others hear something terrible? Could it be that General Esdeath was planning to rebel against the empire?
Then, won't we, who heard these words that we shouldn't have heard, be executed directly by General Esdeath?
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Kurohō and the others couldn't help but tremble, but Koizumi wasn't panicking at all.
Esdeath and this man didn't show any murderous intent at all, why are you so panicked?
Since Esdeath has pulled Hei Tong to her side, she won't suddenly kill someone when she has nothing to do after eating.
What's more, Hei Tong was Esdeath's protégé, so she was considered one of Esdeath's people. Why would Esdeath weaken her own forces when she had nothing better to do? Although perhaps with Esdeath's strength, using an imperial weapon wouldn't be too painful for her.
However, according to normal people's thinking, Esdeath should not attack Hei Tong and others.
Of course, this is just the thinking of a normal person. What if General Esdeath takes an abnormal path?
Forget it, let’s not think too much about it. Even if Esdeath wants to take action, I won’t be so easily slaughtered.
If all else fails, I'll have to use the Command Seals... Having said that, it's really unpleasant to have to think about using the Command Seals all the time.
"Humph! Sooner or later, I will eliminate you, this time bomb, for the empire!"
This imposing man said something that was totally inconsistent with his aura at the moment. There was no way around it, it felt too low. Anyone can say such harsh words, but if you just say them without taking action, it's too low-class.
Although it can be roughly guessed that it is for the stability of the empire, it is better to talk about it after the action is taken.
Koizumi grumbled silently in his mind, then fixed his gaze on Esdeath.
Esdeath was very disdainful at this time. Although the guy in front of her said that his strength was about the same as hers, if they really fought, no one could say who would win. She might even win.
The stubborn and rigid man in front of him who only knows how to speak harshly is General Bud who had attacked Reimu before.
He and Esdeath are both the strongest in the empire, but I have rarely seen the battle between them, after all, they are in the same camp.
But it was obvious that Esdeath in front of him was a battle maniac, and it could be heard from her words...
Wait, what did Esdeath just say? Koizumi was slightly taken aback, feeling as if he had overlooked something!
"It's so boring to be in this empire where there's no war or rivals to fight against! 】
An empire without even a war... Is there no war in this empire? Aren't there still revolutionary armies and foreign races?
Could it be that what General Esdeath was talking about was that there was no war that could make her take it seriously?
No, if she meant a war that would make Esdeath serious, she should have made it clear.
Sure enough, there is a problem... There has been a big problem since I lost my memory... It's like something strange has happened!
Gu Quan's eyes flashed with solemnity, and his mind was already on high alert. He could not afford to relax even a little bit.
At this time, after making the harsh remarks, General Bud planned to leave immediately. He no longer wanted to stay in Esdeath, otherwise he might not be able to help but take action to destroy this time bomb for the empire.
Esdeath loves war. If there is no war, she will undoubtedly create it herself.
Regardless of position, even if they are on the same side, as long as it satisfies her, she can rebel at any time.
To Esdeath, loyalty is unimportant. In this world, the strong are respected. As long as you are strong enough to suppress everything, then is loyalty even necessary? They will betray you simply because you are weak.
In Bud's eyes, Esdeath, who has this kind of thinking, is undoubtedly a bomb that can destroy the empire at any time.
His premonition told him that if he did not take some preventive measures against Esdeath, sooner or later Esdeath would attack the empire, so no matter what, he had to be more vigilant about Esdeath.
With this vigilance in mind, General Bud slowly left under Esdeath's disdainful gaze.
Chapter 54: Esdeath's sudden attack
General Bud simply ignored Koizumi and the others. It wasn't that he looked down on them, but in his perception, Koizumi and the others were not very strong, so General Bud didn't take them seriously. He was more focused on Esdeath, who was harmful to the empire.
That's true. Although Koizumi possesses the power of a vampire, during the day, the power of a vampire is suppressed by the sunlight, including its aura, so it is difficult to sense the aura of a vampire during the day.
Besides, Koizumi hasn't transformed into a vampire yet, so it would be difficult for Bud to discover him.
However, when Bud passed by him, Koizumi still felt a little uneasy.
There was no other way. This act of going deep into the enemy camp was simply too exciting, so exciting that even Koizumi couldn't help but feel very nervous.
Fortunately, the tension completely dissipated after a short while, and Koizumi didn't reveal any problems.
If something goes wrong here by accident, it will be extremely embarrassing.
The next moment, Esdeath brought Koizumi and the others in. She was very familiar with Kuroneko's social circle, and Koizumi's presence didn't surprise her at all. It would have been strange if Koizumi hadn't come along.
After bringing everyone to the training ground, Koizumi glanced around, his eyes gleaming with solemnity.
From the moment he arrived at the training ground, Koizumi felt something very special...
Is there a barrier here? As soon as I entered, I felt the sense of enclosure here, but this was also normal. Judging from Esdeath's strength, if there was no barrier, it would probably cause some damage to the interior of the palace.
Esdeath's self-training is no joke, this one is one of the strongest in the empire!
"Hei Tong, you and your friends should train here now."
Esdeath said lightly, while giving a look to the three followers behind her.
When she came in, Esdeath had already introduced her three followers to herself and others.
The three beast warriors - Liva, Niu, and Daidas, respectively possess the imperial weapons [Water Dragon Possession·Dark Marin], [Military Music Dream·Scream], and [Two Great Axes·Belwak]. All three of them possess extremely powerful strength.
Riva is a general with silver hair who looks older. It is said that he was a general of the empire in the past. However, because he committed a crime, he was released by Esdeath. He was infected by Esdeath's personal charm and became Esdeath's subordinate.
Niu is the transvestite boy who looks like a woman. He is petite and was born into a prominent family. He has a cold and ruthless personality, likes to dissect small animals, and has a habit of collecting female faces. However, he is indeed very strong and is the backbone of the Esdeath army.
Daidas is a rugged, burly man who once followed Esdeath in her conquests of the northern tribes. He's a battle enthusiast who enjoys battling powerful opponents to gain experience points. But then again, does he think he's killing people or playing games? Gaining experience points is too much to complain about... Never mind, I'll lose if I take it seriously!
Thinking of this, Gu Quan curled his lips and said nothing. Why bother with so much entanglement?
Hei Tong nodded silently, took the [March of the Dead: Eighth Chamber] in his hand and began to train with Yin and others.
Gin and Mai didn't say anything, but Remes was a little repulsed.
There was no way. Remus's physique was not very good. Not only that, she was actually ranked dozens of times lower than those who were eliminated in the Imperial Assassination Force. In terms of qualifications, she was no match for Wu Min, Yin, and Hei Tong.
And now that Hei Tong has obtained the imperial weapon, his strength must have increased, and he is no match for Hei Tong.
However, since Yin and Wu Min are so enthusiastic, I absolutely cannot ruin everyone's mood.
So, Remus could only put on a smile and train with Kuroneki and the others.
It is obvious that Hei Tong's strength has been greatly improved after obtaining [Marching Dead·Eight Rooms].
When the compatibility with the imperial weapon is extremely high, the host's strength will also be improved to a certain extent.
This is the same as whether a weapon is easy to use or not. If it is not easy to use, your strength will be affected.
Therefore, it seemed a bit difficult for Gin, Wu Min and Remus to deal with Kuroneki together.
What a pity. There was still some disappointment in Esdeath's eyes when she looked at Hei Tong. Although Hei Tong's physique was much better than the Hei Tong in her memory, there was no doubt that his strength had declined, and the decline was not just a little bit.
Sure enough, in such a peaceful era, killers like Hei Tong, who are essential in troubled times, will have no place to use their skills.
Who would have thought that the Imperial Assassination Force, which was second only to the Elite Seven, would be completely disbanded and only the Elite Seven would be elected.
So it is really a pity that Hei Tong did not receive certain training.
But... Esdeath's gaze suddenly turned to Koizumi, who had a troubled look on his face.
Yes, Koizumi was indeed conflicted, wondering whether he should go forward and train with them.
However, before Koizumi could figure it out, Esdeath suddenly smiled excitedly and stepped on the ground with her right foot. The next moment, a huge ice cone protruded from the ground and stabbed towards Koizumi.
"What--!!!!!"
Koizumi was slightly startled, and his hands subconsciously formed a pink spear - Gungnir!
Gungnir was placed horizontally in front of his chest, and the ice cone rubbed against Gungnir violently at lightning speed.
Sparks flew from the friction between the two, and Koizumi was sent flying by the impact.
Gu Quan gritted his teeth, and at the moment he dodged the ice cone's attack, a pair of blood-red wings gathered behind him.
Slowly, a pair of pitch-black pupils completely turned blood red and glowed.
Moreover, Tianyang's teeth began to become sharp, making him look exactly like a vampire.
Although he didn't know why Esdeath attacked him, there was no doubt that the other party wanted to fight him. Since Hua wanted to fight him, he would fight him to the end, even if the other party was the strongest general.
However, Koizumi was very curious as to why the other party attacked him.
Koizumi doesn't understand? Could it be because he's a wanted criminal? If that's the case, then the other party shouldn't have attacked him while he was talking to Kuroneko?
Or is there something else going on? This is Koizumi's only guess at the moment.
Esdeath's face showed excitement, and her aura was released without any concealment.
The look contained in those ice-blue pupils was like the look of a hungry beast seeing delicious food. That kind of hunger made people subconsciously feel fear.
