I, Asuna, don't want to travel around the world

Although we don’t know whether Ernest is dead or alive now, it is still good for them!

On the other side, Esdeath was standing there with a bored look on her face. If it wasn't for giving Tatsumi a chance to try out the imperial weapon, she might have skipped the early court meeting.

““Ahem.”

Above, the little emperor sitting on the throne coughed lightly, and then he read out loud the words that Bud had taught him.

"The minister was ill last night and is currently recuperating at home. I hope that while serving the empire, you will also take care of your own health."

(Osster, who was undergoing an autopsy at the Imperial Physician's Office, was stabbed again~)

"Thank you, Your Majesty~"

As the little emperor finished speaking, the officials below all looked flattered and saluted quickly.

Then, Bud suddenly took a step forward, saluted to the little emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the night raids are still going on. Although General Esdeath is in charge, it is difficult to find any traces!

In order to put an end to the night raid as soon as possible, I hope to mobilize the army of the imperial capital to thoroughly search the bases of the night raid and eliminate the trouble forever! "

"Well, I agree. I'll leave this matter to you and General Esdeath."

The little emperor nodded without any hesitation.

After all, Bud had already told him about this matter.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Bud saluted, then took a step back and returned to the queue.

The next moment, another official stepped forward and began the morning court routine.

"Your Majesty, recently..."

Asuna didn't care much about other things happening in the court. After all, even if they made a decision in the court, it would take weeks or even months for it to be truly conveyed to the lower levels.

By that time, the rebels would probably have already revolted and fought against the empire, so they would have no time to implement new decrees.

Moreover, it doesn’t really matter whether you listen or not. After all, there is Kayaba Jingyan, the automatic secretary, and you can just go to him if you have any problems in the future.

Time passes minute by minute.

On the throne, the little emperor acted very naturally, as if Ernest was not there, but was just recuperating as he said, without revealing any flaws.

The little emperor's behavior made Bud not sure whether he should be happy or sad.

The good news is that his Majesty has been able to handle political affairs and govern the country smoothly after Ernest left.

What worries me is that Ernest, the man who grew up with his majesty, has died, but his majesty is so indifferent. Is it because Ernest taught him too well, or has his majesty been completely trained by Ernest to become his successor...

"No matter what, under my guidance, your majesty will definitely become a wise ruler."

Bud said to himself in his heart.

"However, those who attacked at night are really getting bolder and bolder. They even dare to enter and leave the imperial city."

"But this also shows that there is something wrong with the imperial city's defense system. We must improve it as soon as possible after the court session."

"As for the task of searching for the night raiders, leave it to the adjutant."

As the seat of the imperial family, an army dedicated to the emperor is naturally indispensable.

And now, Bud is ready to use this army to thoroughly search the lair of the night attack!

They were able to assassinate officials and wealthy businessmen of the empire at night and evacuate quickly, so their base must not be too far from the imperial capital.

Otherwise, it would take a lot of time just to get there.

Moreover, I heard that someone is conducting human experiments outside the imperial capital, so it’s a good opportunity to get rid of those criminals together!

(Fashion, danger!)

Those criminals have been at large for so long, it's time to bring peace to the imperial capital.

Soon after, the court meeting ended...

"Masked General, General Esdeath, please wait a moment."

Asuna and Esdeath, who were about to leave, were suddenly stopped by Bud.

"What's wrong, Bud?" Asuna stopped and asked him.

"Do you want to discuss cooperation in encirclement and suppression of the night raid, General Budd?" Esdeath also asked.

"Yeah." Bud walked up to the two of them, nodded gently, and said, "Yes, just as Esdeath said, it's about the night raid."

"Then should I stay away?" Asuna shrugged and turned to leave.

"No, actually, I also want to ask you for help." Bud stopped Asuna,

"Huh?" Asuna glanced at Bud in confusion. She never expected that this old-fashioned man in front of her would actually ask her for help?

"Can we take the opportunity to fight then?" Esdeath asked excitedly.

"Allow me to refuse!" Asuna waved her hands immediately, unshakable.

"Ahem." Budd coughed lightly. "Soon after, I will mobilize the army to search the imperial capital. At the same time, I will also send people to search the mountains and forests not far from the imperial capital."

"When the time comes, please go search the forest with Esdeath. If the soldiers find any traces of the Night Raid, they can provide timely support."

"And you will stay in the imperial capital and protect His Majesty?"

Asuna asked.

"That's right." Bud said without any concealment.

He was worried about letting Asuna stay in the imperial capital.

He asked her and her subordinates to search outside the imperial capital. He was also afraid that after his soldiers discovered the night attack, Esdeath and the others would not have time to provide support, which would result in heavy losses for his soldiers.

In this case, it would be better to let Asuna go with Esdeath. This will not only ensure that the soldiers will not suffer heavy casualties, but also ensure the safety of the imperial capital and His Majesty.

After all, in Bud's heart, the little emperor would be safe only if he stayed in the imperial capital.

"I remember that the minister has a force called Royal Fist Temple under his command. I remember there are many masters there. How about letting them follow Esdeath?" Asuna suggested.

"Those people?" Bud frowned, then shook his head and said, "Although their strength is acceptable, their personalities are..."

"Why don't we take this opportunity to arrest them all? Hey, Esdeath, what do you think?" Asuna said very impolitely, "If we don't find any trace of Night Raid, how about we go to the Royal Fist Temple to vent our anger?"

"That's possible. I've heard that people who come out of the Royal Fist Temple are all very powerful. I hope you won't disappoint me too much." Esdeath's eyes suddenly lit up.

She doesn't care whether the Royal Fist Temple is a force under the Empire, as long as she can have fun.

Moreover, with their identities and strength, even if they really wiped out the Royal Fist Temple, who would dare to question it?

In this world, strength is ultimately respected.

Seeing Esdeath's high spirits, Bud shook his head helplessly, "Leave some seeds for the Royal Fist Temple when the time comes. After all, the empire still needs some places to train talents."

"Once we destroy the Imperial Fist Temple, we can then completely nationalize it." Asuna chuckled and casually decided the fate of the Imperial Fist Temple.

"It's up to you." Bud was too lazy to care about so many things. Anyway, the Royal Fist Temple was not under his control, and he had no interest in taking over and cultivating a new force to grow.

For their clan, all they need to do is protect the emperor and firmly control military power.

"Then it's settled." Asuna glanced around again, as if on guard against something, and then asked in a low voice: "By the way, Bud, what happened to the fat minister? Did he eat too much and his stomach exploded?"

"I've heard that you, Mask, and the minister are not getting along. Turns out it's true." Esdeath looked at Asuna curiously.

"Who told that guy to stab me in the back? I didn't teach him a lesson in the capital because of your majesty's kindness."

"I see."

112 Hunter's Action (Happy New Year's Eve)

As the military order was issued, a large number of soldiers who were originally supposed to be training in the barracks took to the streets.

The imperial capital underwent its first large-scale search in thousands of years.

There were no pedestrians on the originally bustling streets, and all the residents in the imperial capital stayed at home, waiting for the end of the search.

Even the former high-ranking officials were the same.

Moreover, the soldiers' search would be more intense on them. After all, it was not uncommon for nobles to shield assassins to kill their political opponents these days.

Although Bud didn't think that the civil and military officials of this term would dare to assassinate the minister, if they really found something during the search, he would not suffer any loss.

As a result, the imperial capital was completely immersed in the chaos, with only the sound of soldiers' orderly footsteps and searches being heard.

This is the advantage of sending out troops. No one dares to resist them. Once they resist, it will take at least three years.

Three years was enough time for his family members living in the imperial capital to become homeless or even die.

The large-scale search was carried out in an orderly manner. Rows of soldiers were neatly lined up on both sides of the streets, large and small, in the imperial capital, controlling the entire situation.

And above those imperial capitals, a dangerous dragon-like creature with wings was constantly hovering in the sky.

And Bud was sitting on the dangerous creature.

There were flashes of lightning around him, and he was expecting that the base for the night attack was somewhere in the imperial capital. Once a riot occurred, he would bring down divine punishment and judge those daring criminals.

It was a pity that Bud had been flying in the sky for a whole morning, but there was no disturbance below, which made Bud inevitably a little disappointed.

"It seems that we can send more people to Esdeath and the others."

Bud in the sky controlled the dangerous flying dragon and slowly circled over the imperial capital.

……

……

The raging flames, like a flood, gushed out from the nozzle in Porus's hand.

The huge fire dragon was raging in the forest, but no one stopped Porus's actions.

A large number of soldiers waiting for Esdeath's command began to create a barrier around the hill to prevent the fire from spreading to other places.

“Hwwwwwwwww!!!”

A series of hoarse roars came from the flames that filled the sky, and soon after, a human-shaped "torch" with a burning body staggered out from Porus's flames.

However, before he could run far, a sharp feather fell from the sky, pierced through the flames on the "torch", penetrated its head, and nailed it to the ground. Finally, as the flames spread, it burned to ashes...

"Plop——!"

The moving "torch" finally stopped and lay straight on the ground, leaving only a charred human corpse, being licked by the flames.

And this is not just one example.

"Lan, come down and take a rest. Will and the others will handle the rest."

Not far behind Porus, Esdeath looked up at Lan, who was flying unsteadily, and then shouted loudly.

The imperial weapon that Lan possesses is called [Mostima: Ten Thousand Miles Flying], which is a rare winged imperial weapon among the forty-eight imperial weapons in the empire!

Its ability is to allow the user to fly, and the feathers it launches are powerful enough to kill enemies. If you encounter an enemy with clumsy movements, you can completely kill it by using the kite-flying method to drain its blood.

Moreover, when you encounter an enemy who also uses flying props, you can bounce the opponent's flying props back. Even in a melee, you don't have to worry about being attacked by stray bullets.

However, this rebound also has a limit. Once it exceeds the ability of the imperial weapon to withstand the rebound, then it all depends on luck.

If you are lucky and manage to avoid it, nothing will happen. If you are unlucky and manage to avoid it, you will be transformed into a fallen angel.

Well, the angel who fell from the sky died instantly.

As one of the few winged imperial weapons in the imperial capital, the attack power of [Thousand Miles Flying·Mastema] is low, but that is also relative to dangerous species and imperial weapon users.

Like the transformed "monsters" below, after experiencing the flames sprayed by Borus's [Purgatory Summoning Rubigand], they had no defense at all and were completely unable to resist Lan's attack.

However, even with the least powerful attack, Lan's physical strength was slightly exhausted after such a long offensive.

After all, there were too many "weirdos" running out of the mountains!

Although most of them were burned to death by Porus's flames, the small number of "survivors" was still quite large.

It was precisely because of this that Lan was exhausted under such high-intensity continuous attacks.

Yes! That’s right, that Lan who looks almost as handsome as you, the reader!

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Lady Esdeath."

Lan in the sky slowly flew down and said to Esdeath with a guilty look on her face.

"It doesn't matter. You've done a great job. You were able to hold out for such a long time in the face of such a large number of enemies. In the future on the battlefield, you will definitely be the one who gives the enemy the most headaches. Haha."
