"How could this be? How could I possibly lose? It's impossible!"
"It's over. Let your imperial dream end here!"
Mo Li's cold and ruthless voice echoed in the young emperor's mind. He did not want to give up; he still wanted to resist.
"It's just the loss of an arm; I can still defeat you. Die, Mo Li!"
The Guardian Divine Machine opened all the cannons on its body, and countless red laser beams shot towards Susanoo.
Behind Mo Li were the people of the empire. Although he didn't care about the lives of ordinary people, the night raiders were also behind him. If they were to dodge, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Moreover, Mo Li also wanted to test Susanoo's defense, so he chose to withstand all the attacks by himself.
Countless lasers struck Susanoo's body, causing an explosion that alarmed many.
Akame gripped Murasame tightly. At this moment, she was powerless to help. This was the first time Akame had felt her own weakness, and she wondered why the feeling of being protected was so painful.
Mine could no longer bear the silence. She stood up, grabbed a pumpkin, and was about to rush forward when Chelsea stopped her.
"Let me go! I can't just stand by and watch him get attacked!"
“Main, calm down. I’m just as worried about Mo Li’s safety as you are, but please believe in him. He’ll be alright.”
How can I (in this situation)
"Mo Li chose to take the hit to protect us, didn't he?"
Najendan could see clearly that the laser attack had come from this direction, and if Mo Li hadn't blocked it, they would all have lost their lives.
Upon hearing this, Mine also lowered her head, feeling her own weakness just like Akame.
"It's alright, you can keep watching. Mo 823 isn't as fragile as you think!"
Kuro's voice rang out from the crowd, and everyone looked up, their faces filled with anticipation as they gazed at the center of the battlefield.
As the smoke gradually dissipated, Susanoo's figure reappeared before everyone.
The young emperor stared wide-eyed at Mo Li, who was unharmed. Sweat poured down his forehead, and his body began to feel heavy. He knew he was nearing his limit.
Before the young emperor could react, Susanoo had already arrived in front of him, raised his Guan Dao with both hands, and slashed down with all his might.
The body of the Guardian God was split in two by the Guan Dao, and electric arcs appeared in many places, with explosions ringing out incessantly.
After a moment of silence, the shouts of the people rose behind Mo Li. The destruction of the Guardian Divine Machine meant that the revolutionary army had won and would no longer be exploited as before.
Susanoo gradually disappeared into the air, but Mo Li knew that the minister who was the culprit had not yet been dealt with.
After finding his location using the Whispering Scroll, Mo Li quickly opened a portal and rushed in.
The sudden disappearance of the hero who had helped them win left everyone present puzzled.
Kurohime and Esdeath exchanged a glance, then quietly slipped away, disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Strange, where did Mo Li go?"
"I don't know. Given his personality, shouldn't he be here enjoying people's admiring gazes at this time?"
"You really know him well! There must be something else going on!"
"Let's ignore Mo Li for now and make arrangements for the injured citizens. He should appear soon."
Chapter 294 Mo Li's Gift, A Crimson Ending
The underground passage of the Imperial Palace in the capital.
This was an escape route that the minister had ordered to be dug in advance. A cunning man like him would have three escape routes even a rabbit would have three, so how could he not think about his own escape route?
This passage connects to the riverbed outside the capital. No one would guess that there is a tunnel beneath the palace.
The minister was frantically traversing the tunnel. His obese body did not hinder his movements. He was panting heavily, but he showed no sign of stopping.
"Hoo~ hoo, the smart ones always win in the end. As long as I'm alive, I can make a comeback no matter how many times I try. Night Raid, Mo Li, you just wait!"
"I think we don't need to wait until next time, Minister Ernest, I'm right here!"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, the minister's eyes widened as he stared at Mo Li, who was leaning against the wall.
Mo Li stretched his limbs and slowly walked towards the minister. His feet clattered on the floor, echoing throughout the tunnel like a countdown to death.
The minister stumbled backward, tripped over a pebble, and fell to the ground. Looking around helplessly, he cried out for help:
"Help! Help! Someone help me!"
"Who do you think will come to save you at this point? Just lie down on the ground and prepare to die!"
"Don't come any closer! I... I'm not afraid of you! Damn it, take this!"
Seeing that there was no way to retreat, the minister quickly pointed the ring in his hand at Mo Li. Suddenly, an eye emerged from the ring, emitting a purple light.
Then his eyes shattered into gems, and the minister seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, no longer as terrified as before.
The Imperial Arm [Ireston] possesses the ability to destroy an opponent's Imperial Arm and is the Minister's last trump card.

"Hahahaha, you fool! You're saving your trump card for last. Now you're helpless, aren't you, Mo Li!"
"So-called final struggle? I thought it was something important. How boring!"
"Hmph, you're just being stubborn now. Well then, I'll sentence you to death now."
The minister pulled out a very finely crafted pistol from his pocket, pointed the muzzle at Mo Li, and a wicked smile appeared on his lips.
Mo Li's expression remained unchanged. Not to mention that he had never used any Imperial Arms, even without using any abilities, he was capable of killing the minister single-handedly.
With a "bang," the bullet flew towards Mo Li.
Just as the bullet was about to hit Mo Li, an ice wall appeared in front of him, blocking the bullet.
Esdeath and Kurohime slowly emerged from the darkness, staring intently at the minister.
Mo Li smiled slightly. The three of them had completely blocked the minister's escape route, and death was already his destined end.
The minister's expression shifted from joy to shock, then to fear; at that moment, he no longer had the strength to fire a gun.
"General Esdeath, why did you betray the Empire? Didn't we have an agreement?"
Hearing my name from your lips only disgusts me. As for why I betrayed you, I can only say that it's the rule between the strong and the weak, and someone like you will never understand!
"Help...help me! I don't want to die! General Esdeath, didn't you love war the most? We can start from scratch and build an empire even stronger than it is now!"
"It's a very tempting option, but I refuse!"
Esdeath glanced at the minister with disdain. In the past, she might have agreed to the request.
But now that she knows there's a much wider world out there, this world holds no interest for Esdeath anymore.
Seeing that he could not persuade Esdeath, the minister turned ashen-faced and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly to Mo Li.
"Lord Mo Li, please don't kill me! I'll give you anything—fame, power, Imperial Arms!"
"You can't give me what I want, Ernest!"
A flash of cold light, and the minister's hands and feet were severed. The immense pain made the minister cry out.
He thought he could die a quick and painless death, but he didn't expect that Mo Li had no intention of letting him die so easily.
Mo Li covered his hands and feet with frost to stop the bleeding. The arrival of the new empire required someone to sacrifice for it, and the minister in front of him was a good sacrifice.
Moreover, if we want to subdue Akame and the others, this gift must not be too light. Let the people judge the minister.
"Let's go, Kurome, Esdeath, it's time to complete the final step of our plan!"
"Shouldn't we just kill him?"
"Someone will do the killing for us; we have more important things to do right now!"
Mo Li glanced at the minister without any emotion, then disappeared with Esdeath and Kurohime.
The minister breathed a sigh of relief; it felt so good not to die.
The minister, enduring the pain, tried to crawl away, but with his hands and feet severed, every movement was excruciating, making it impossible for him to go far.
Not long after, the minister was discovered by Leone and taken out of the dungeon.
"Boss, look who I caught!"
"Minister Ernest, well done, Leone, but didn't you go a little too far!"
"I didn't do this. I only punched him twice in the stomach. He was already like this when I saw the minister!"
"Could it be... Mo Li? Leone, did you see Mo Li in the tunnel?"
Najendan frowned, thought for a moment, and realized that only Mo Li seemed capable of doing so.
Leone shook her head, indicating that she did not see Mo Li.
This made Najenda even more puzzled. What could be proven was that Moli was in a hurry to leave to find the minister.
But why didn't Mo Li kill him? Instead, she handed him over to the revolutionary army.
Moreover, Esdeath and Kurome disappeared after the battle, which felt a bit off.
Akame, Mine, Chelsea, and the others who were standing nearby also rushed over after hearing Mo Li's news.
"What's wrong? Is there any news about Mo Li?"
"No, but one thing is certain: the minister being made to look like this was definitely done by Mo Li."
"That's strange. Where did he go? On such a happy day, he actually disappeared!"
Mine pouted, looking unhappy. She had finally mustered up the courage to confess her feelings to him, but that guy had disappeared again. He was such a blockhead.
The revolutionary army has occupied the entire palace and is making orderly arrangements for various tasks.
The ones who were left idle were Night Raid and his group, since they had already completed their final mission.
Najendan had no choice but to put Mo Li's matter aside, thinking that he would be back soon anyway.
The civilians on the street wore excited expressions, shouting to welcome the revolutionary army into the city.
Tatsumi walked down the street, basking in the admiring gazes of those around him. He felt a surge of pride, and his steps became lighter. It felt really good.
"Sayoo, Iyeas, did you see that? I did it! I saved our village!"
He might even be appointed as a general in the future; his future looks bright.
Just as Tatsumi was thinking this, he wasn't paying attention and bumped into someone in front of him, falling to the ground and apologizing repeatedly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to... Hey, Lord Mo Li, what are you doing here?"
"Hey, Tatsumi, feeling pretty smug, huh? Thinking about your future, huh?"
Tatsumi, embarrassed by having his thoughts exposed, scratched the back of his head. He had been present when Mo Li summoned Susanoo, and he felt only gratitude towards Mo Li.
"No, Lord Mo Li, why aren't you with the leader and the others?"
"By the way, speaking of which, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with. Could you please deliver this letter to Najenda during the night raid?"
Chapter 295 Revealing the Demon King's Identity and Making a Contract with His Fellow Beloved
A week passed quickly, and good news came from all over the country: the revolutionary army had captured almost the entire empire.
However, many die-hards of the old empire still resisted stubbornly, but were quickly suppressed by the revolutionary army.
The empire, which had lasted for over a thousand years, has finally come to an end. The rotten roots have been dug out, and now all they have to do is plant the seeds of peace anew.
Because the young emperor died in battle, the people directed all their anger at the ministers.
Soon, the minister was sentenced to death by slow slicing, and died in front of all the people of the capital.
After these tasks were completed, the reconstruction of the new empire was put on the agenda, and everyone was rewarded according to their merits. However, Mo Li, who had made the greatest contribution, was nowhere to be seen.
For a whole week, no one saw Mo Li, and Esdeath and Kurohime also disappeared along with him.
Lan became the new Minister of the Interior, Brand, Will, Tatsumi and others successfully became generals of the Empire, while Lubbock declined the new Empire's invitation and returned to his hometown.
Akame, Mine, Leone, Hill, Chelsea, and others also declined the invitation. Their reasons were simple: they knew nothing but killing, and the peaceful empire no longer needed assassins.
The group gathered once again at Night Raid's headquarters; perhaps this was the last time they would see each other.
"Ahhh, where did Mo Li go? It's been a week and we haven't seen a single trace of him!"
"I don't know. I haven't seen him since the battle with the Guardian of the Nation."
"Boss, don't you have to go on duty today? Brand and the others went there very early!"
Mine looked at Najenda with a puzzled expression, after all, she had never been late before.
