What am I planning to do?

Despite being held by Esdeath, Merad showed no sign of tension or even hostility towards her.

Faced with such an unexpected situation, even Esdeath couldn't help but frown, because she really couldn't fathom the thoughts of the person in front of her.

"Of course I plan to have a good talk with you!"

Throughout the entire ordeal, Esdeath did not sense any hostility from Melard. She had no way of predicting his actions through her thoughts, but her physical movements could not escape her notice.

While a sheet can certainly restrict an opponent's movements, it cannot completely limit them, especially a master like Merard!

Indeed, in Esdeath's perception, the girl in front of her named Melard, who was about the same age as her, was also on par with her in terms of strength.

If it weren't for the fact that Lord Caesar and Hazel were right next door, Esdeath alone might not have been able to defeat them.

Of course, Esdeath was extremely confident in her strength, but her opponent was clearly not a warrior, but a so-called "assassin".

If one attack fails, they flee a thousand miles away.

Putting everything else aside, an assassin's ability to escape is absolutely top-notch, right?

The sheet binding her body ripped open, and Merard's hands appeared unknowingly near Esdeath's ears.

Approaching the opponent while concealing one's presence and then delivering a fatal blow is the most common attack method used by assassins. As a member of an assassination society, Merad would naturally not be unaware of how to conceal his presence.

Just as his arms were about to encircle Esdeath's neck, a victorious smile spread across Merard's face, but...

Esdeath's reaction speed seemed to be faster than she had imagined.

The sudden turn of events was indeed unexpected for Esdeath, but her experience and physical abilities gained from years of fighting dangerous species might not necessarily be inferior to Merard's training as an assassin.

Esdeath's extraordinary reaction speed gave her a chance to react, and her free hands seized the opportunity to grab Merard's hands, stopping his intentions.

All of this happened so suddenly that even Melard was surprised. This girl named Esdeath was really…

That's interesting!

Her favorite thing about Melard is girls!

Especially those strong girls!

If you ask why Merad didn't attack Crydela and Heather, the only answer is that she couldn't win...

Please, even if you're a fan, you should at least face reality, okay?

Going to find Crydella and Hathaway, is it because they want to die sooner?

"So Esdeath, I'll take your first time!"

Although Esdeath held her hands, this gave Melard an opportunity. She clenched her fists and opened them wide to the sides at top speed.

Even if Esdeath were as powerful as she was, it wouldn't have made any difference, because of Newton, there is a rule in the world called "universal gravitation".

Even if Esdeath manages to break free from Merard's grasp, her body will continue to fall uncontrollably.

The distance between Esdeath's nose and Merard's was less than a decimeter; even if she wanted to block it, there was no way she could...

Hurry up and say thank you, Newton!

Just a second later, an unusual aura filled the entire room. Esdeath stared wide-eyed, her expression one of disbelief, while Merard moved forward with a hint of enjoyment.

strength!

That's amazing!

It was at this awkward moment that a familiar song seemed to begin playing around us.

Ah Zhen fell in love with Ah Qiang on a starry night…

PS: Xi Lian is here! She looks so much like Ai Li.

From now on, Xi Lian and Ai Li will be paired up, but we haven't decided which world they'll go to yet...

Kerritt & Hazel / Scarlet Eyes: Chapter 13 Sleepless Night

"You bastard!"

Esdeath is not yet emotionally naive and has not yet become the future version of herself who wants to fall in love... or rather, in the original story, Esdeath only started considering love because of Melder's influence.

So Esdeath was very angry!

Seeing the blissful expression on Meld's face made her feel extremely uncomfortable. If she didn't get rid of this discomfort, she probably wouldn't be able to get a good night's sleep tonight.

It's like a Taoist priest in a temple who gets into an argument with someone while going down the mountain to buy something. When he returns to the temple, he feels increasingly uneasy and can't calm down at all. Only after he goes down the mountain again and beats up the person he argued with does he regain his peace.

So for Esdeath, the best way is to beat up that nasty face in front of her, and then she'll definitely be able to get a good night's sleep.

With that in mind, Esdeath acted without hesitation, because Meld was right beneath her, and there was no way he could escape.

“Not bad, Esdeath, but… you seem to lack experience with people!”

Although Melde is not very old, her insight is extremely sharp. After all, she is someone who will become the leader of the assassination society in the future, so she naturally saw the problems with Esdeath.

Her fighting style is wide-open and aggressive, and although she has some skill, it's clearly not designed to fight humans... Is she from some ethnic minority in the north? Is it because she's been in contact with dangerous species for many years that she lacks skills against humans?

After only two or three days of contact, Meld had almost figured out Esdeath. If she were to assassinate Esdeath now without Crydela and Heather, the success rate would be at least 70%.

However, she is currently living under someone else's roof and cannot seriously fight Esdeath, so she can only try to dodge... Although the distance is very close, it is not impossible.

If Esdeath were to throw a punch, Meld could only spin to deflect the force, his free hand instinctively grabbing Esdeath's lower back, then turning around...

Esdeath's punch missed, and she herself, due to the force of the spin, rolled onto the cold floor along with Melde. It wasn't until Melde leaped away that the two of them regained their distance.

"What a heartless woman! She did 'that' with me, yet she attacked my face without hesitation... Do you want to disfigure me?"

Even after creating some distance, Melde didn't forget to mock Esdeath. After all, she had just received a huge gift from Esdeath, and if it ended like this, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight...

Wait, why did I say "also"?

"Hehehe... I not only want to disfigure you, I want to embed you in the wall!"

Completely ignited with fighting spirit, Esdeath was now wide awake. She absolutely couldn't fall asleep unless she punched that mocking face into the wall.

boom!

The table broke.

boom!

The bed broke.

boom!

The floorboards were broken too.

Now, neither of them could sleep at all.

However, compared to Esdeath and Melard, who were making a lot of noise during their nighttime battle, Crydella and Chelsea fared much better...

"Your Imperial Arms allows you to transform into different people, right?"

"It is possible to become different people... Who do you want me to become?"

Having long heard of the "Transformation Freedom Gaia Foundation" ability, Crydella naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass her by; she was determined to try out the benefits this ability brought.

So before going to sleep, Crydella approached Chelsea, intending to transform her into a creature she was familiar with.

"I have a question: Can this Imperial Arm transform you into a non-human being?"

"It's possible..."

"Then transform into an earth beast and let me sit on it."

Krydella's expression was very serious. Since arriving in this world, she had not yet shown her riding skills, especially with earth beasts.

Caesar's fondness for the Earth Beast stemmed from the fact that its towering size allowed her to survey the surrounding landscape. And now, having encountered Chelsea, wasn't it a perfect opportunity to fulfill her little wish?

"Earth Beast? What's that? A dangerous species?"

Seeing Chelsea's puzzled expression, Crydella suddenly remembered that there were only Dangerous Beasts in this world, and no Earth Beasts from the world of Onpharos!

"Since that's the case, then let me show you Caesar's painting skills! They're definitely no worse than those of the artists!"

After finding paper and pen in his desk, Caesar began to draw as quickly as possible. Despite being a monarch, his artistic talent was likely considerable.

Soon, a lifelike "Caesar riding a beast of the earth" appeared before Chelsea's eyes.

The lollipop fell from Chelsea's mouth at that moment. She opened her mouth wide to look at the painting in front of her, and then looked at Crydella, whose eyes were filled with anticipation.

"You turned me into this?"

"Speak with some respect. What do you mean by 'this'? Earth Beasts are noble creatures! Since this is your first offense, I'll let you off this time. Hurry up and do it; becoming an Earth Beast is an honor for you."

I didn't realize it was expensive, but it's definitely high-end!

I never expected that this little dwarf would like such tall creatures?

Because of Caesar's tyranny, Chelsea could only swallow these vicious words and dared not utter a single syllable.

But if she did speak, Caesar would probably have to order Chelsea to split into five groups to assassinate the King of the North... and then there might be another lollipop scene.

"I can't change it. Gaia Foundation can alter my form, but it can't transform me into a creature that's too big or too small..."

"Idiot, can't you turn into a child?"

Does this work too?

Thus, under Caesar's sincere persuasion (and threat), Chelsea successfully transformed into a horse-sized earth beast using her Imperial Arms, and then watched with despair as Caesar sat on her back.

Looks like Chelsea won't be able to sleep tonight either...

As for Caesar, the feeling of riding on the Earth Beast's back was so exciting that she probably wouldn't be able to sleep well that night. Even Caesar hadn't expected to enjoy the pleasure of riding an Earth Beast in the world of "Akame ga Kill!"

"Wan Hua Jue, why don't you become my earth beast for life!"

"No! Absolutely not!"

Chelsea was furious. This little dwarf only thought about himself and never considered the feelings of others!

How could I possibly be a dangerous species for the rest of my life!

"Really? That's a real shame."

Caesar's face showed a regretful expression, which Chelsea saw clearly.

What a waste!

Now, Chelsea, who dared not speak out against her anger, was even more unable to sleep...

—

In the last room, Hazel and Myoko lay on the same bed without moving an inch, simply listening to the terrible noises coming from the two rooms next door.

After a long while, Taeko could no longer hold back.

"Are the two rooms next door really okay?"

"Don't worry, no one will die."

The only response to Taeko was Haeser's calm yet completely unreliable voice. If she weren't outmatched, Taeko would have run away long ago.

"But they keep making these strange noises, and we can't get a good night's sleep!"

Do you need me to help you fall asleep?

Hazel thought of her identity as a siren. If she sang a lullaby, it would surely help humans fall asleep quickly.

But to Myoko, these words sounded like a death knell!

"If you keep an eye on the other two rooms, I'll make you disappear completely," that's roughly the idea, right?

Now, even Taeko couldn't sleep.

Meanwhile, Heather, who was beside her, was also unable to sleep because she shared a soul with Caesar and possessed two bodies.

The two lay down together, staring at the ceiling, listening to the strange noises coming from the two rooms next door, unable to close their eyes for a long time.

I couldn't sleep all night!
