In the stronghold of the night attack.

There was a gloomy atmosphere.

Najeshitan sat at the wooden table with a cup of cold tea in front of her.

But she seemed not to notice and let the tea fragrance slowly dissipate in the air.

Brand paced back and forth, his rough face full of anxiety.

Marin was lying on the simple bed. Her originally fair face was now pale and her breath was weak. It was obvious that her injuries had suddenly worsened.

Opposite them.

Hill and Leone were still lifelike ice sculptures, lying there quietly without a trace of life.

"Bang!"

Brand punched the wall hard, and a deep fist mark immediately appeared on the hard wall.

"Damn it! It's all my fault for being so useless! If I were stronger, this wouldn't have happened..."

Brand said in a deep voice.

"Brand, calm down!"

Seeing this, Najeshitan hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

Brand lowered his head, his eyes were red and tears were welling up in his eyes, but he forced them back.

As a member of the revolutionary army.

Brand had long since disregarded life and death.

but.

He watched his companions die in front of him, but he was powerless to do anything.

This kind of heart-wrenching pain was really unbearable for him.

Najeshitan looked at all this and felt a surge of self-blame in her heart.

As the leader of the night raid.

She should have protected every one of her companions.

But now...

Reality dealt her a heavy blow.

On the way to escape.

Main was trying to be strong by holding Hill, who was frozen into an ice sculpture.

This eventually leads to forced overdraft of physical strength and serious damage to internal organs.

Wait until you return to the base.

Marin vomited blood and fell into a coma.

However, Hill and Leone were seriously injured.

Has stopped breathing.

Only the cold "corpse" was left.

Thinking of this, Najeshitan wished that time could go back.

That way she could find a way to prevent this from happening.

However, all this is just wishful thinking.

the reality is cruel.

Time will not change because of anyone's will.

"Cough cough..."

"BOSS."

at this time.

A faint voice brushed past Najeshitan's ears like a feather.

Najeshitan suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction of the sound.

Marin, lying on the simple bed, had opened her eyes at some point. Her originally dull eyes now flickered with a faint light.

Marin tried hard to raise her arms, but they eventually fell down weakly, making a slight sound on the rough wooden board.

"Main! You're awake!"

"I'm sorry, Boss."

Marin struggled to open her cracked lips, her voice as hoarse as sandpaper, "I... failed to complete the mission..."

"Don't be silly, Myne. You've done a great job."

Najeshitan suppressed the grief in her heart and comforted softly:

"Your current task is to have a good rest. We can discuss other matters after your injury has healed."

"No, Boss, I know, my body is no longer able to..."

Marin shook her head, a sad smile appearing on her pale face:

"I just hope I can see you all one more time before I die..."

"Everyone……"

Najeshitan felt a pain in her heart when she heard this.

She also wanted to let Ma Yin see other people again, but...

"Boss...I'm sorry...I..."

Before she could finish her words, Marin's consciousness became blurred again, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.

I could hear her weak breathing, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

"Main!"

Najeshitan stood by the bed, reached out her hand, and gently held Maine's cold hand, trying to use her body temperature to bring Maine a little warmth.

Unfortunately, Main never responded again.

The sound of Main's breathing, as faint as a candle about to go out in the wind, struck Najeshitan's heart again and again.

Every sound seemed like a final farewell.

……

The oppressive atmosphere enveloped the entire stronghold like an impenetrable wall.

"Squeak-"

at this time.

The wooden door was slowly pushed open.

A faint ray of light shone through the crack in the door.

Najeshitan and Brand turned their heads almost at the same time.

What came into view was the figure of Akame.

She was dressed in a black outfit and had long black hair, looking heroic, but her originally bright scarlet eyes were now covered with a layer of haze.

Behind her, Cooper and Chelsie stood side by side.

……

"Akagi, Chelsea...you're back."

Seeing the two return safely, Najeshitan and Brand shook their heads heavily, but they could not hide the complex emotions in their eyes.

……

Seeing this, the expressions on their faces became a little subtle, as if they all noticed the suffocating and oppressive atmosphere in the room.

Akagi's crimson eyes swept across the scene before her, her brows furrowed, and an ominous premonition came over her.

When Chelsea saw this, her heart suddenly skipped a beat and a bad premonition came to her mind.

She walked quickly to Myne's side and carefully checked her injuries.

The slender fingers gently probed Marin's breath, feeling the breath that was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

"Boss, Myne's situation...is not optimistic."

"I see."

There was a deep sense of powerlessness in Najeshitan's tone.

……

"Boss, what happened?"

At this moment, Chi Tong asked in a low voice.

Although she was only back for a short while.

However, the lifeless atmosphere in the stronghold and the sadness of Najeshitan and Brand made her feel a little uneasy.

"Hill and Leone, they... have already..."

Najeshitan's voice choked.

In the end, I didn't have the heart to say the word "death".

"Already what?!"

When Chi Tong heard this, his heart sank.

She walked to the "corpses" of Hill and Leone almost completely instinctively.

Looking at the two lifelike ice sculptures, a chill instantly spread throughout my body.

"Chil! Leone!"

Chi Tong reached out her hand tremblingly and gently stroked the familiar face on the ice sculpture.

The cold touch and the lifeless coldness made her realize instantly that all this was not a dream.

Ciel and Leone...are really dead.

Chi Tong only felt a chill rising from the soles of her feet and spreading throughout her body in an instant, making her feel like she was falling into an icy cave.

She couldn't believe it.

Not long ago, the companions who were still alive have now turned into two cold "corpses".

not to mention.

The reason for all this is actually because of her——

in case……

If she hadn't accepted Gu Bo's proposal, hadn't become the devil's follower, hadn't gained this powerful power...

Then, would Esdeath not have discovered this place, and would Hill and Leone not have died?

Thinking of this, Chi Tong suddenly fell into self-blame.

Her lips trembled slightly, but no sound came out.

……

Chelsea stood aside, watching this scene, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Although she didn't spend much time with Hill and Leone.

But he had already regarded them as his companions.
