In the world of anime and manga, the best partners

The dragon, freed from its shackles, raised its head and let out a deafening roar, as if proclaiming that it had regained its freedom.

However, things are not that simple.

"You've done very well. Super Dangerous Species are not beings that can be easily defeated. Everything you've just done has laid a solid foundation for our victory!"

The Golden Bloodline, which she created on the spot, had only undergone a short period of training, and it was already quite impressive that it could fight against such a massive creature. Crydela was not the kind of monarch who would shift all the responsibility to her subordinates, but would make judgments based on the situation.

In terms of results, these Golden Descendants are really quite good!

"Next, all we need to do is wait."

Crydella's face was beaming with a victorious smile, but the Golden Bloods had no idea what had happened.

Esdeath, who was covered in sweat, looked around and a question mark suddenly appeared above her head.

The girl, who finally had some time to rest, did not seem to see the Sword Banner Lord she respected by Crydella's side.

"Your Highness Caesar, where is Lady Hathaway?"

"Of course they're fighting, but... it's somewhere we can't see them!"

Krystal led the remaining Golden Blood to gradually retreat, positioning themselves just outside the dragon's attack range. This allowed them to avoid the lava attacks while still providing timely support.

Krydella herself had already seen the true state of the dragons from another perspective.

In the pitch-black space, a blue light suddenly shone, and Sword Banner Lord Heather enveloped his entire body with "water" filled with ocean power, while blocking a certain hole with some rocks.

"As expected of Caesar, that was a perfect home run!"

Krystal's earlier attack, the fiery rocks, was aimed at the dragon's ears. Heather used these extremely hot rocks, along with the seawater she summoned, to form a solid wall that completely blocked the dragon's ears.

Meanwhile, the sound of Heather entered the dragon's ears, ready to unleash the power of the ocean at any moment.

As a demigod of the ocean, Heather possesses a very special ability that, while not very useful in normal times, can display its divine power in crucial moments.

That's summoning seawater out of thin air!

No matter where she is, as long as Heather is still the demigoddess of the ocean, countless seawater will surround her!

Haseein means the sea!

Are you ready to undergo a physical form of "brainwashing"?

"I don't know if a dragon's ears can connect to its brain, but it doesn't matter... I'll just make the connection, won't I?"

The next moment, deep blue light surrounded Hazel, and the sea officially descended upon the area!

PS:

The original work's Super Dangerous Species, the mountain at the bottom of the picture looks like it's hundreds to thousands of meters high, it looks really exaggerated.

This dragon must be over 10,000 meters long, right?

Kerritt & Heather / Scarlet Eyes: Chapter 56 Equivalent Exchange

"Roar--!"

In the eyes of Krydella and the Golden Clan, the dragon, which was larger than a mountain, had just broken free of its restraints and let out an excited roar.

But a second later, the dragon began to struggle abnormally, and even the most foolish person could see that the dragon's expression was one of great pain.

"Your Highness Caesar, did Lady Hathaway make this?"

"Of course, only Sword Banner Lord has such ability!"

Esdeath looked at Cerritora, and the girl understood that this was what the missing Sword Banner Lord was talking about, so she immediately decided to ask for his opinion.

"Should we take this opportunity to attack? Judging from this dragon's appearance, now is definitely the perfect time..."

Unable to spare any attention due to the pain, he could only roll around among the mountains, almost turning the surrounding snow-capped peaks into dry land.

"No, we just need to wait, and leave the rest to Lord Sword Banner!"

Crydella's tone was filled with an indescribable confidence. Esdeath also knew why Her Majesty the Empress would do this, after all, the strength of the Sword Banner Lord was obvious to all.

Since meeting Hazel, Esdeath seems to have never seen any flaws in her…

Beautiful and with a sweet voice, she's incredibly strong!

Anyone with a conscience would cherish such a subordinate…

But in Esdeath's mind, the image of Hazel was gradually merging with her own...

"When will I be able to become that kind of person?"

Although Esdeath is already considered the second most powerful general in the North, she is still very young and has room for growth in the future.

And Heather is clearly a target to catch up with!

Esdeath hopes that her future will be like Lady Hazel's, becoming a loyal, excellent, and powerful warrior!

I offer everything to Her Majesty Empress Crydella!

"It is said that the North is not suitable for people to live in. After all, this land is covered by snow all year round, making it even more difficult to become a powerful country."

"But now, it seems that part of the problem has been solved?"

Kerudela looked thoughtful as she watched the giant dragon rolling around in the mountains.

This dragon merely rolled around in the mountains a few times, causing countless snow-capped mountains to disappear and even raising the temperature in the north by tens of degrees, reaching the optimal comfortable temperature for the human body.

"Oh! What a pity!"

If we can bring this dragon under our control, the biggest problem in the North—the frigid climate—can be solved.

When the environment improves, we can farm, build houses, and even enable the people of the North to live a good life...

At that time, won't becoming a world power be just around the corner?

Unfortunately, Crydella lacked the ability to persuade her opponent, so she had no choice but to kill her with a heavy heart!

But before killing this dragon, let it roll around in the snow a little longer to raise the temperature...

Meanwhile, Crydella, who was constantly summoning the ocean, also picked up her sharp twin swords, preparing to charge forward in one direction.

The dragon's body is covered with hard rock and terrifying magma, rendering most attacks ineffective.

However, having a strong defense on the surface does not mean that the body has a strong internal defense. Often, the breakdown begins from the inside!

All Hathene needs to do is pierce the dragon's brain and let her seawater cover everything to end this slaying war.

Ding--!

As the demigod of the ocean fully revealed his power, the dragon ceased its struggle and collapsed to the ground, unconscious...

"We have won!"

—

"Hmph! Although I didn't get one alive, dying wasn't bad either~"

With a body as large as a mountain blocking her way, Krydela showed no pity, but rather ninety percent excitement and one ten percent regret.

In the world of Akame ga Kill!, the First Emperor of Qin, a thousand years ago, conquered many super dangerous species. Using these super dangerous species as raw materials and rare metals as materials, he created weapons called Imperial Arms.

Now that Crydella has also obtained a super dangerous species, and one that is so large, she should be able to make a lot of interesting new weapons, right?

As for those technical issues... hehe!

Does Crydella need those things from the Empire?

If she only creates new Imperial Arms, Crydela would at most be called "the second First Emperor" in the history of Zanpakuto, which is not what Crydela wants.

What she wanted was "the first empress, Cerlydella"!

Creating new weapons using technology will inevitably take a lot of time. Although there is no time limit for Crydella in this world, she should leave as soon as possible.

Therefore, Cerberus intends to use her legal powers to directly exchange the dragon's corpse for an "equivalent exchange," which will save time and improve efficiency.

Krystalla also did some research on Imperial Arms.

That's Najenda's Pumpkin Cannon!

Although its power was indeed quite impressive, she always felt that something was missing... The Pumpkin Cannon's power didn't seem to be as great as she had imagined?

Krydella also ordered people to forge weapons using some rare metals and dangerous species, for which she even consumed a lot of her own golden blood.

Soon, Krydella discovered a problem.

When Hazardous Species are used as materials to create weapons, their corpses deteriorate over time, resulting in weapons that lack a certain "spirit."

To solve this problem, Krystal also considered many ways to improve efficiency and prevent the weapons from deteriorating during the manufacturing process.

The final answer is, none of them!

Human intervention is utterly incapable of preventing degradation; the only way to do so is through non-human methods…

Legal powers, an equivalent exchange!

So Crydella immediately went to the dragon's corpse and placed her hand on its body.

This guy just died, we have to hurry and eat him while he's still hot!

Otherwise, if you wait until the corpses are cold, the effectiveness of the converted weapons will be greatly reduced!

"With so many dragon scales and dragon flesh, I should be able to assemble a powerful 'Dragon Scale Warriors,' right?"

Scales were made into armor, claws and teeth were made into weapons... everything that could be used was used, and not a single bit was wasted!

However, just as Crydella was about to use her legal powers, she sensed the breath of life emanating from the already dead dragon…

This sudden turn of events startled Crydella, who immediately took a large step back. Was the dragon planning to feign death, allowing them to get closer before launching a counterattack?

"Everyone retreat! We... wait!"

Krystra, who was planning to reorganize her army, realized something was wrong as soon as she uttered the words, because she suddenly discovered…

The dragon's death was not a hoax, but the unusual life force was extremely weak, suggesting it belonged to someone else.

After tracing the source, Krystra's expression gradually froze, then an unimaginable excitement surfaced...

"Wow... we really hit the jackpot!"

PS:

I'm all set to release this Friday, and I'm starting to stockpile drafts!

Kerritt & Hazel / Scarlet Eyes: Chapter 57 General Budo Dies!

"Hoo hoo... I didn't expect your strength to have reached this level. I underestimated you."

Bud looked at the bright moon in the sky, his eyes filled with complex emotions. He never expected that Najenda, who had only been promoted to general a few months ago, would now have the strength to rival his own.

Najenda didn't seem to have this growth rate before, which means...

"Was it Krydella who did it? How did she enhance your strength?"

"..."

Although Bud was once her superior, their positions are now completely different, so Najenda naturally cannot tell him about the Golden Blood.

"I knew it even if you didn't say it, it's that so-called... 'divine power'? I thought it was just a rumor at first, but it turns out it's true?"

"No comment."

—

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye. In order to prevent Bud from continuing to use lightning to attack the city walls, Najenda finally made up her mind to send everyone out of the city to meet the enemy.

The walls were certainly too strong to be breached by ordinary means, but Budo's Teigu "Admiral" clearly possessed such an ability. Najenda could indeed use a pumpkin to negate the opponent's attack, but that would not bring victory at all.

Hold firm and do not fight.

If Najendan does this, it will be difficult for Bud to break through the walls, but if word gets out that this kind of cowardly fighting style gets out, it will be easy for people to make a fuss about it.

Moreover, this was an order given by Empress Crydella in front of everyone, ordering Najenda to take command of all the troops in the capital to prevent attacks from the Empire or other organizations.

Although Crydella did not demand that Najenda perfectly defeat her opponent, this was the first order she had been given to Najenda since the Empress ascended the throne.

It can't be done in a chaotic way, it can't be done in a mediocre way, it can only be done to the best of its ability!

Although Najenda is young, she understands the rules of the Empire.
