Their commission was suspicious.

In the dim light, the blonde woman saw a purple-haired woman wearing glasses and a body that had lost its upper body.

That's...my body?

The blonde woman had already been cut in half at the waist. The speed was so fast that she didn't feel any pain at first, but the next moment she let out a soft scream.

Being cut in half at the waist doesn't necessarily mean immediate death, but the screams wouldn't be as powerful as they could be.

"I'm so sorry." The purple-haired woman in the cheongsam shook off the blood from the huge scissors in her hand, bowed slightly to the body that had been cut in half, and apologized.

[Sheele]: One of the Night Raid members, a ditzy, bespectacled girl. She wields the Imperial Arms, "Severing All Things: Soul Destroyer".

"!!!"

"How could there be... murderous intent?" Tatsumi, who had been fast asleep, suddenly threw off the covers and rushed out with his weapon.

Tatsumi, who can easily deal with Level 1 Dangerous Species on his own, is very sensitive to killing intent.

Although Tatsumi and his group were drugged, the "Breaking Out of the Cocoon" technique can actually increase their drug resistance.

When Tatsumi rushed out of the room, he saw Sayo and Iyasu rushing out of the room at almost the same time.

"What's going on?" Tatsumi, who had just entered the city on his first day, was somewhat confused.

"Look!" After the three of them gathered together, Sayo suddenly pointed out the window.

The remaining two looked in the direction of the sound and saw several figures standing on countless thin lines, seemingly floating in the sky, under the moon that had turned blood red from the murderous aura.

“What is that…?” Tatsumi stared blankly at the six people floating in the sky.

“I heard about Night Raid from Miss Arya’s bodyguard today. It’s a notorious assassin organization in the capital, targeting wealthy merchants and high-ranking officials. They’re ruthless! They’re probably after Miss Arya’s family’s wealth this time,” Iyas said.

"Damn it!" Kazumi cursed under his breath.

It's outrageous that someone as kind as Lady Arya could be assassinated. Night Raid is truly a heinous crime.

Night Raid and the others levitated in the air using silk threads, which seemed to be a way of showing off their presence. So, before long, before Tatsumi and the others could react, they could see from the window that the guards on the first floor had already rushed out.

"Should we go help?" Tasmi asked his two companions.

Tatsumi could rush out to protect Arya in gratitude for her meal, but he is not alone now.

Meanwhile, high above in the sky where the raiders had gathered...

“The three guards are the target, Akame-chan,” Lubbock said, several threads extending from his right glove to provide support for the Night Raid assassin.

Lubbock was in charge of intelligence gathering, so all the information about the assassination targets was with him.

"Understood. I'll go kill them (bury them)." A girl with waist-length black hair and a samurai sword at her waist fell freely from the silk thread.

Akame: A member of Night Raid, wielding the Imperial Arms "One-Shot Kill: Murasame". She has a catchphrase during battle: "Death." She enjoys eating meat.

As Akame landed, a tall figure clad in armor also landed behind her. The towering figure resembled the most solid bulwark, giving people a strong sense of security.

[Brand]: A former Imperial soldier known as the "Hundred-Man Slayer." He possesses formidable strength and is known for his upright and honest character. He wields the Imperial Arm "Demon's Embrace."

"Listen carefully, don't get touched by that knife," said a guard who knew the Night Raid members quite well.

After saying that, he rushed forward.

Then I typed gg.

Akame's blade was so fast that he didn't even have time to react.

The other of the three guards was pierced through the body by a red spear thrown by Brand, who was standing behind Akame and was clad in armor.

The last guard, seeing all his companions killed in just two seconds, completely lost his will to fight.

"Are you kidding me? So fast..." The last guard was just about to turn and run away when gunshots rang out.

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the guard's head accurately.

"It's shameful to desert your post!" a pink-haired girl standing on the silk thread said disdainfully.

【Mine】A long-haired girl with Western ethnic ancestry in the Empire, possessing a high aptitude for firearms. She wields the Imperial Arm "Romantic Turret: Pumpkin Cannon".

“No, any normal person would choose to run away, right?” Lubbock retorted.

"They were all wiped out in an instant?" Tatsumi, who witnessed this from the third floor, found it hard to believe.

A skilled person can vaguely sense the strength of their opponent. During dinner, Tatsumi felt that the three guards were very strong.

"How about we go protect Miss Arya?" Iyeas suggested, sweating profusely.

"Let me do it." Upon seeing this situation, Sayo had already drawn the bowstring taut without anyone noticing.

Powerful wind elemental energy gathered on the arrow, and even before it was fired, its pressure shattered the glass of the window in front of it.

"I think I can wipe them all out with one arrow!" Sayo said confidently.

Even if it doesn't work...

Shayou glanced at Chen Luo, who had appeared beside her at some point.

Even if I can't, can't I still escape through a bar?

Furthermore, Sayo's attack was authorized by Chen Luo. Although Chen Luo also indicated that the attack was probably useless.

"Boom!" The wind element arrow from the top-tier four-star bow was instantly fired, accompanied by terrifying wind elemental force, and shot towards the remaining three people standing on the line.

Mine and Lubbock, standing in the sky, instantly sensed an extremely deadly danger.

Even setting aside the expert's keen sense of life-or-death crisis, the movement of that wind element arrow was enough to attract attention.

"Danger!!!" Mine, also an archer, raised her Romantic Cannon and aimed it at the oncoming arrows.

However, the arrow was too fast, and Mine had no confidence that she could completely defend against it.

Between masters, life and death can be decided in an instant.

Right now, Mine feels like she's teetering on the edge of life and death.

Due to the setting that the greater the danger to the user, the Romantic Turret in Mine's hands also began to output full power.

But just as the arrow was only a meter away from Mine, and she was about to pull the trigger, her teammate next to her instantly grabbed Mine's gun, lowered the muzzle, and caught the full-force arrow from the golden version of the Elf Bow with her bare hands.

Seeing this, Mine breathed a sigh of relief.

“They’re not among the targets, but they’re in great danger.” After letting out a long sigh of relief, Lubbock also saw Sayo standing by the window with her bow in hand, along with the others beside her.

"What should we do?" Mine asked.

"I'll go."

"I knew you were the best, boss." Mine nodded repeatedly, full of trust in her teammate.

"Of course." The person next to him accepted the praise without a second thought.

"Luo Luo..." Seeing that her attack had been caught, and then someone else was flying towards her, Sha You looked at Chen Luo beside her.

"I already told you it's no use, right? As for what to do? I'm not sure I can defeat them all. But there's no need to run." Chen Luo looked at the incoming person with a serious expression.

"Go for it, great Herrscher of Knowledge!" Lubbock cheered from behind.

"Keep it up, boss." Even without much effort, they still offered their support.

"..." Chen Luo looked at the Herrscher of Knowledge, who had somehow become the leader of the Night Raid, and almost couldn't keep his serious expression up.

Yeah, this guy is definitely no match for you.

Even if we could win, we wouldn't be willing to fight.

Chapter 870 CG Check-in Mode

"So this is what you came up with after arriving in the world of Akame ga Kill! and telling me you wanted to play around on your own?" Chen Luo said, pulling on the Herrscher of Knowledge's ear.

As soon as Chen Luo arrived in the world of Akame ga Kill!, he thought about finding Sayo and Ieyasu and guiding them to Tatsumi. After all, if Chen Luo didn't contribute anything to the mission, he might be deemed irrelevant and not given any reward.

Although Chen Luo had never tried this before, he didn't dare to.

However, the Herrscher of Knowledge said that he was not interested in Tatsumi and wanted to go out for a walk. He also borrowed an assassin from Chen Luo.

Chen Luo pondered the Herrscher of Knowledge's personality; it seemed she didn't really like doing things like playing games with Aria. The Herrscher of Knowledge preferred to go straight for Aria and give her a Void Sword God attack.

For Arya's safety and for Chen Luo's own mission, Chen Luo did not restrain the Herrscher of Knowledge.

After all, how can we come into this world and not have fun?

Who would have thought that the Herrscher of Knowledge had no interest in Tatsumi, nor in Sayo, Ieyasu, or Aria? She went straight to Night Raid's headquarters.

Chen Luo only learned after contacting the assassins that the Herrscher of Knowledge had inquired about the location of Loli Hassan's Night Raid headquarters through the assassins' communication channels and then went directly to the Night Raid headquarters.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Stop it! Don't let my honor be tarnished in front of my little brother!" The Herrscher of Knowledge protested as Chen Luo pulled his ear.

How could I, a man of great reputation, be brought down by you?

Just as the Herrscher of Knowledge had predicted, when Mine and Lubbock, who were still standing on the silk threads floating in the air, saw the Herrscher of Knowledge being obediently pulled by the ear by Chen Luo, their minds went blank for a moment.

What happened?

What happened?

What happened?

As for Sayou and her group, who were originally supposed to be next to Chen Luo, Chen Luo directly sent them away.

Let them go about their business.

"I'll stop this man, you guys get out of here."

Although Chen Luo never gave them any specific tasks, they would likely search for and protect Arya after they left.

This incident will not affect Chen Luo's recommendation of the three of them for the Night Raid mission. On the contrary, if the three perform well in the operation, it will be easy for Night Raid to accept them.

After all, the three of them were victims too. And they were exceptionally capable!

Although this is somewhat redundant now that the Herrscher of Knowledge has already used her Herrscher powers to cheat and become the leader of Night Raid.

"What's so painful about it? You're not talking like I'd actually hurt you." Chen Luo rolled his eyes at the Herrscher of Knowledge before letting go of her hand.

"So why did you go on a night raid?" Chen Luo asked curiously.

"Isn't this all for you? You wanted Imperial Arms, didn't you? So I'll grant your wish and help you collect Imperial Arms. Now, with just one order from me, the Night Raid members will obediently deliver the Imperial Arms to you. That's the confidence the Herrscher of Knowledge gives me." The Herrscher of Knowledge said without a trace of guilt.

After all, I was doing something important, so why should I feel guilty?

She had worked hard to get the Imperial Arms that Chen Luo wanted.

"So this is why you used the Herrscher of Knowledge to influence everyone in Night Raid, making them treat you like their leader? Fine, since you were genuinely doing something worthwhile, I won't dwell on this." Chen Luo sighed.

Chen Luo suspected that the Herrscher of Knowledge went to Night Raid to become its leader partly to find Imperial Arms, but more importantly, it was just for fun.

Chen Luo remembered that he had told the Herrscher of Knowledge that he would obtain the Imperial Arms Illustrated Book after completing his identity mission.

That Imperial Arms encyclopedia can display the location of Imperial Arms in real time.

Besides, if Chen Luo really wanted to raid these people's Imperial Arms at night, he could collect all of them during the story skipping period.

Chen Luo looked up at Mine and Lubbock, who were standing on the silk threads.

"Alright, stop playing around. Let's undo the changes to their consciousness."

"Understood." The Lawbringer nodded reluctantly.

"Snapped!"

After the Herrscher of Knowledge snapped her fingers, all the information about the Herrscher of Knowledge in the minds of the Night Raid team members who came on this mission returned to normal, and they completely forgot about the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"I can understand if you don't want that romantic turret, but don't you want that Thread Imperial Arm in Lubbock's hands?" The Herrscher of Knowledge said, pointing at Mine and Lubbock, who had been stunned for a moment before leaping down from the air to begin their respective missions.

"What's the rush? I am indeed quite interested, but the other side still needs to use this Teigu right now. I'll collect the Teigu one by one after we finish the mission of sending Tatsumi, Sayo, and Ieyasu into Night Raid."

Chen Luo is someone who dislikes trouble.

Collecting Imperial Arms one by one is too troublesome now. It's much more convenient to collect them all at once after completing the mission and obtaining the Noble Phantasm illustration.

Although the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge is particularly useful, it can completely change the mind of the Night Raid members and make them directly accept Tatsumi and the others.

However, no one can guarantee that nothing will go wrong later on.

The Herald of Knowledge could easily handle the current Night Raid group, ensuring they would never notice anything amiss in their lifetime. However, Chen Luo couldn't believe he could bear to give up so many new customers.

If they get too much contact with the bar and try to get some kind of full-body treatment or gain new powers, causing problems with the Herrscher of Knowledge's authority, things will get complicated.

In short, after experiencing the infinite possibilities of the world, anything can happen.
