Not long after, Esdeath emerged wearing a bathrobe, her body still radiating warmth.

"Would you like something to eat? I don't want you to fight me on an empty stomach tomorrow. I told you, I'd beat you when you're at your peak!"

"Esdeath, who is stronger, you or Bud?"

Mo Li's sudden question really surprised Esdeath, but she immediately began to think about it.

Although she and Bud are known as the "Twin Pillars of the Empire," they have never fought each other, so it's hard to say who is stronger. However, Esdeath is confident that she can kill Bud after using that move.

"He's stronger without using his Teigu, but once he uses it, I'll definitely kill Bud!"

"I see, I understand now!"

"Whether it succeeds or not, we'll know the answer tomorrow. In any case, let's rest for tonight."

After Esdeath finished speaking, she pulled Mo Li down onto the bed and embraced her with her broad chest.

Mo Li's body tensed up instantly, then relaxed again. Mo Li was a little confused about this woman's attitude towards him. Could it be that all sadists are like this?

Oh no! Mo Li suddenly thought of a very bad possibility, and at the same time secretly made up his mind that he absolutely could not let Darkness meet Esdeath, otherwise something bad would happen.

The next day, Esdeath gave the hunters the order to eliminate the bandits in the nearby mountains, and then took Moli to a place on the outskirts of the capital. The terrain there was open and there was a stream nearby.

Most importantly, this place is very close to the night raid. If any loud noise is made, it will easily attract them, and who knows what might happen then.

"This should be about right. No one will bother us. Mo Li, you can use all your strength now."

“Good, I hope you can give me some surprises this time, Esdeath.”

“This is absolutely unexpected, Mo Li. I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time.”

Esdeath opened her eyes, snapped her fingers, and a huge ice ball appeared out of thin air above Moli, crashing down like a meteorite.

With his golden eyes gleaming and the second Blood Explosion activated, Mo Li extended his right hand, releasing the power of the Sovereign Flame through his palm.

"Junyan Bomb!"

With a loud "boom," the ice ball was shattered into tiny ice fragments that fell to the ground near Mo Li.

Esdeath knew that this move alone would not be enough to harm Mo Li, so she immediately unleashed an ice waterfall that rushed towards Mo Li at an extremely fast speed.

Mo Li remained calm and unleashed his Sovereign Flame to defend himself, the ice and fire colliding and producing a sizzling sound.

Steam kept rising from the steam, and Esdeath suddenly emerged from it, wielding an ice sword. She still remembered the scene of being humiliated by Mo Li that day.

To avenge our defeat, we must defeat him in his area of ​​expertise.

Esdeath knew perfectly well that Mo Li was not weak in close combat, but she was always the kind of person who avoided battle and retreated.

Mo Li's lips curled up slightly as he summoned the Rebels to fight Esdeath.

"It seems that you have been honing your martial arts skills all these years, and have not relied solely on the power of the Imperial Arms."

"You know what? Every night I dream about our battle. I've rehearsed this fight countless times. I will never lose to you again!"

"If you stay in the past, you'll never improve. You might be able to beat me two years ago, but how do you know that I haven't become stronger two years later?"

After saying that, Mo Li began to exert his strength, turning the passive situation into the active one, and the defense into the offense, launching a fierce attack on Esdeath, with each strike seemingly aimed at her vital points.

Under Moli's relentless attacks, Esdeath had no choice but to retreat continuously. Despite her strong will, she refused to admit that she had fallen behind in close combat and struggled to hold on.

Finally, after Mo Li's repeated strikes, Esdeath's ice sword shattered, and the situation changed dramatically.

Mo Li seized the opportunity and went straight for Esdeath's throat, determined to pierce it and win the battle.

Seeing this, Esdeath summoned dozens of ice walls to block Mo Li's attack. At the same time, she took the opportunity to distance herself from Mo Li, her expression unusually excited.

In the face of life and death, Esdeath unleashed astonishing potential and made the best choice in an instant.

"As expected of you, Esdeath. An ordinary person would have died after that move."

"The battle has only just begun! Charge, my servants, crush him!"

Chapter 255 Mahapajapati Gotami vs. Zafkiel: A Battle of Time

Esdeath, a master of skill development, created countless abilities using her Ice Imperial Arms over two years, one of which was the Ice Rider. Ordinary Imperial soldiers were no match for the Ice Riders.

On the battlefield, ice cavalry are invincible and the best choice to deal with large foreign armies.

However, this is not a battlefield, and the opponent is not the fragile alien army of 893, 964460. The ice cavalry may be effective against others, but they pose no threat to Mo Li.

"Megiddo - Scorching Demon-Slaying Cannon!"

With one shot, the ice cavalryman turned into water vapor and disappeared from the field.

Esdeath seemed to have anticipated this scene, and with a wave of her hand, a rain of ice arrows shot towards Mo Li.

Mo Li shook her head. Two years had passed, and she hadn't improved at all. She should know that this kind of trick couldn't possibly cause her any harm.

With his Mangekyou Sharingan activated, Mo Li hid himself in the Kamui dimension. An ice arrow pierced through his body and struck the ground. Esdeath couldn't help but smile upon seeing this.

"If this is all you've got, then I've won this fight!"

After Mo Li finished speaking, he arrived behind Esdeath at lightning speed. He was going to teach Esdeath a lesson in the same way as last time. That's not how you fight.

Just as Mo Li was about to make his move, he suddenly found that he couldn't move his feet. It turned out that the ice arrows he had shot at the ground had slowly frozen the ground after Mo Li revealed his true form.

"You're really amazing, Mo Li. Even though I train every day, I still can't gain any advantage in close combat. But I don't spend all my time on close combat!"

Esdeath revealed a dangerous smile, as if she could see the future of Mo Li and her.

Mo Li snorted coldly, his expression grim. With a slight effort, he pulled his foot out of the ice and charged towards Esdeath. It was time to end this battle.

Esdeath gazed at Mo Li rushing towards her, slowly raised her hands, and a blue orb of light appeared in her palms.

"Mokobo Temo!"

As Esdeath finished speaking, time seemed to freeze.

Whether it was the flowing stream beside them, the trees swaying in the wind, or even Moli, who was charging forward to deliver a fatal blow to Esdeath, everything was frozen in place, motionless.

In this space, the world turned into an ice-blue expanse.

Esdeath walked slowly toward Moli, her footsteps making a crisp "crunching" sound on the ice.

"Everything in the world freezes before me. This is the ultimate technique I created specifically to defeat you."

This special move can only be used once a day and is extremely energy-consuming, but Esdeath still dared not be careless in the slightest when facing Mo Li.

Esdeath approached Mori, gently stroked his face, and summoned her ice sword once more.

"To prevent you from escaping, I'll cut off both of your legs first. Don't worry, as long as you listen to me, I'll take responsibility for you. It's just temporary pain."

As Esdeath spoke, she mercilessly severed Mo Li's two legs.

"That's fine. From now on, you are my slave!"

"I'm sorry, but I hate being someone's dog the most, so please forgive me for refusing!"

A long spear was pressed against the back of Esdeath's head, and Mo Li's voice came from behind her.

Esdeath's eyes widened. When did he get behind her? Hadn't she severed his leg? Why were there two Moli? How did he escape from Mahapadma...?

A host of questions lingered in Esdeath's mind. She couldn't understand how Moli had managed to do it; no one had ever been able to escape Mokpatomo.

Mo Li stared at the clone whose legs had been severed, his heart breaking with cold sweat. This woman was so ruthless, showing no mercy whatsoever.

Even before the battle, Mo Li knew that Esdeath would definitely use Machapati in this battle, so he used Zafkiel's Eighth Bullet to cut out his past self from the timeline to fight.

Her true form was hidden within the Divine Might Space. Mahapadma could only freeze the real world; the Divine Might Space was not within her sphere of influence. That's why Mo Li could appear so calmly behind her.

"Don't move! Guns don't have eyes, or you'll end up with a big hole in your head!"

"I lost. Why? Why did I spend two years creating a move to defeat you, only to have it countered in an instant? I don't understand!"

"Why do you think this is? It's probably due to a gap in intelligence."

Mo Li could only explain it this way: through the Whispering Chapter, he knew all of Esdeath's abilities, and given that Zafkiel was an angel who controlled time, this result was not unexpected.

"The outcome is decided, Esdeath, you have lost!"

Mo Li put away his gun. This battle was never fair from the start, and of course, there is no absolute fairness in the world.

Esdeath lowered her head, her face somber, leaving one wondering what she was thinking.

From childhood, Esdeath was instilled with the idea that only the strong survive, and the law of the jungle was deeply ingrained in her mind. Esdeath always lived according to her own desires.

Looking at Esdeath's dejected expression, Mo Li stepped forward and lifted her chin with his hand, saying:

"Do you remember what you said to me in the palace? You're not going to go back on your word, are you?"

"Do as you please, I will never go back on my word. Please give your orders, and I, Esdeath, will offer my loyalty to you!"

"From now on, you belong to me alone."

"I understand. Joining the Revolutionary Army, right? No problem, I'll do it now..."

Mo Li extended a finger and pressed it against Esdeath's lips, shook his head, and looked into her pale blue eyes, saying each word clearly:

"It's not the Revolutionary Army, nor the Imperial Army; it belongs to me alone!"

"Ok!"

Faced with the forceful Mo Li, Esdeath blushed, a rare occurrence, and her hot breath landed on Mo Li's hand.

This girlish demeanor stunned Mo Li, as it was a stark contrast to her previous queenly image.

Mo Li, as if possessed, reached out and gently pinched Esdeath's cheek. Mmm, so cute!

“Let’s go back. You can remain a general of the Empire as before, and I will continue to be a member of Night Raid.”

"You're really strange. I've already sworn allegiance, so why do you still want me to serve the Empire?"

"Esdeath, do you really think I'm a member of the Revolutionary Army?"

"What do you mean?"

Upon hearing Mo Li's (money) words, Esdeath immediately sensed that there must be some unknown secret hidden within them.

Mo Li trusted Esdeath's loyalty, knowing that given her personality, even if the truth were revealed to her, Esdeath would still stand by his side without hesitation. This was the benefit of strength.

"The Revolutionary Army is just a tool I use to subdue my followers. In fact, I've already controlled the leader of the Revolutionary Army. Otherwise, how do you think I got the title of Demon King?"

"Family? I'm getting more and more confused. What does this have to do with the Demon King?"

Mo Li revealed a wicked smile, and the demonic power that had been hidden within him was instantly released. The mark of the Demon King of the Eye appeared on his forehead, and the true form of the Demon King was revealed in front of Esdeath.

Esdeath's pupils dilated instantly, and her body trembled uncontrollably. The Demon King's oppressive aura made it hard for her to breathe.

"You wanted to know why I'm so strong, and why I can use multiple abilities without using Imperial Arms? Actually, I'm not from this world!"

Chapter 256 Contractual Familiar Esdeath, Planning for the Future

Mo Li decided to reveal his background completely, since he would have to tell it sooner or later anyway, so he might as well take this opportunity to expose everything.

Esdeath looked up, sensing that what Mo Li was about to say might change her life.

"Actually, I am a demon king from another world, in my world..."

Mo Li briefly recounted his identity as the Demon King and his grudges with the divine realm, and also demonstrated the magic of the other world to Esdeath.

Esdeath initially didn't believe what Mo Li said, but as he became able to use multiple abilities simultaneously, Esdeath also became confused.

What followed was extreme excitement, and Esdeath's heart trembled with excitement.

"Another world, magic, goddesses, heroes... such a thrilling and exciting world. Now I realize how foolish I was to have spent so much time in this boring world."

Esdeath murmured, how could a battle maniac like her not feel pleasure in the face of the allure of another world?

Mo Li understood her feelings perfectly. When she came into this world, didn't she also want to find a strong opponent to compete with?

"You said you came into this world to find a family, right?"

"That's right. According to my investigation, the strongest people in this world are gathered in the Empire and the Revolutionary Army. That's why I joined the Revolutionary Army. My goal is to sign contracts with those strong people after overthrowing the tyranny of the Empire and bring them back to the other world!"

"Interesting. Well then, let's sign a contract, Demon King!"

"Are you really sure? Once the contract is signed, there's no going back."

Esdeath abruptly stood up, her powerful queenly aura immediately revealed. She turned to Mo Li and said solemnly:

"I'd much rather fight against the strong than in this boring world!"

"Then the contract is established!"

The demonic aura instantly enveloped Esdeath's body, and a demonic eye appeared on her forehead.

Furthermore, Esdeath felt her power rapidly increasing, and her understanding of the Ice Imperial Arms deepened. She was now stronger than she had been before.
