Start from Firefly and speed through the world

Thinking of this, I still feel a little depressed.

"Esdeath..."

Clara sat quietly nearby.

She is a little interested in Esdeath, a sadistic general, but she is not as afraid of her as Najenda, although she knows that she is very powerful in the anime.

It can be said that he is the strongest imperial weapon user, comparable to a super dangerous humanoid.

And it’s not just an ordinary super-dangerous species, it’s the legendary top existence that’s comparable to a divine beast.

The original Swarovski might not be able to deal with her, but Mr. Swarovski, who has entered the Three Fates, can defeat her completely after calculation.

As for the idea of ​​killing Esdeath, Clara was not so extreme.

Esdeath believes in the law of the jungle, and the strong have absolute dominance over the weak.

She was not as loyal to the Empire as one might imagine, it was just because she liked killing and challenging strong enemies, and liked to trample the enemies under her feet. And it just so happened that the Empire provided her with this platform.

As long as Esdeath is defeated, according to her philosophy of the survival of the fittest, she can be conquered.

Even if we want to build a completely new mechanical kingdom, we can't let mechanical life do everything. Human manpower is still very much needed.

It would be best if we could recapture Esdeath.

in addition......

Clara looked at Akame who was standing aside in a daze, thinking that her sister Kurome would also join Esdeath's team next.

If possible, Clara didn't want the sisters to fight each other.

"?"

As if sensing Clara's gaze, Akame looked over in confusion.

And Clara just smiled at her.

"And Clara, I don't doubt Mr. Swarovski's calculations, but Esdeath really can't be treated with common sense."

"So for now, don't confront her unless it's absolutely necessary."

At this time, Najeshitan shifted her attention to Clara.

One of the reasons why she values ​​Clara is because of Swarovski, but even if Swarovski's own calculations can defeat Esdeath, she will not blindly believe it.

The two sides have never really faced off, so it's really hard to say what the outcome will be.

"I understand, boss."

Clara hesitated, but nodded.

It seems that the boss is still too wary of Esdeath, but the two sides will face off sooner or later, it is just a matter of time.

There's no need to be so afraid...

"Okay, that's it then."

"Everyone, please be alert during this period. Also, protect the area around the base. I estimate that there will be more spies from the Empire in the future."

Everything that needs to be said has been said. As for the rest... we can only wait and see what happens next and the response from the Revolutionary Army.

"Clara has already had the automated soldiers hide in the surrounding woods. They will be able to detect any disturbance immediately."

In addition to the robots provided to the Revolutionary Army, many robots were also left behind at the Night Raid Base, which Najenda and the others were well aware of.

"That's good."

"Then let's adjourn the meeting!"

Najeshitan still trusts Clara's automatic robots.

On the battlefield between the revolutionary army and the local army of the Earth Empire, they played a very important role.

Choosing to cooperate with Clara was indeed the right move.

As the meeting ended, everyone left the conference room.

From now on, the number of people going to the imperial capital will be greatly reduced, which will give us more private time.

However, although Najenda doesn't want to fight Esdeath for the time being, Esdeath seems to be targeting Night Raid.

She is very interested in night raids...

Not even a few days had passed since she came back when the news reached Yexu. Esdeath received the task of dealing with Yexu's killers directly from the ministers and the little emperor.

At the same time, she also summoned other imperial weapon users through the empire to prepare to set up a special department, a department specifically for night raids, and Esdeath personally served as the leader of this special police organization "Hunters".

This was not what Najeshitan wanted to see, but the situation developed in the worst direction she had imagined.

Even when Esdeath was forming the special police organization "Hunters", she also took other actions. In particular, her three beast warriors began to assassinate some famous people and even retired and respected former court officials in various places according to orders.

Then these charges were directly pinned on Night Raid, intensifying the hostility and conflicts among court officials and the people of the empire towards Night Raid.

Originally, Night Raid had a good reputation among the lower-class people in the imperial capital, which was why some people would use Night Raid's unique contact methods to commission Night Raid to assassinate those evil businessmen and dignitaries.

This is an important source of funds and intelligence for night attacks.

And now Esdeath has returned with this trick, catching the night attacker off guard.

But Najeshitan is still helpless...

It was at this time that in a mechanical processing factory belonging to Clara near the imperial capital, Tatsumi and the other two received a letter from the autonomous soldier Pangolin sent by Clara.

Looking at the mechanical creature that emerged from the ground, Shayou was not surprised at all. She had seen countless similar scenes of automatic robots being transformed from raw materials into mechanical parts, and then being built into new mechanical creatures by other automatic robots.

At present, if this small-scale mechanical product production base were not short of raw materials and energy, the number of mechanical products it could produce would definitely exceed four digits.

"Sayo, what did Clara say in the letter?"

While waiting for Sau to finish reading the letter, Tatsumi asked Sau curiously.

"Miss Clara asked us to protect some of the courtiers who were originally retiring if we have time."

"Esdeath's men are assassinating them and are putting all the blame on Night Raid."

Sau handed the letter to Tatsumi and Iyeas and told them what Clara had asked them to do.

Many of these people are capable and have great reputations in the empire. If they can be brought into their own camp, it will undoubtedly be a good thing.

Even if you want to build a new country, with these people supporting you, the public support will increase significantly.

Although it doesn't have much effect, the key still depends on the use of force. Something is better than nothing!

"Those people were killed by the Empire, and then the blame was put on Night Raid? This is too bad."

Tatsumi got a general idea and his impression of the empire dropped again.

In order to achieve their goals, they will do anything evil and use any means. However, those retired court officials have a very good reputation among the people.

After devoting decades to the empire, he is still being exploited after retirement.

"Humph, what expectations do you still have for the empire today?"

Iyas made no secret of his antipathy towards the empire.

"Since Miss Clara asked us to protect these people, we must prevent them from being assassinated by the Empire. It would be best if we could win them over to us so that we can prepare for the creation of a new empire."

Iyeas did not hesitate at all to do what Clara, his savior and the angel who saved him, asked him to do.

He had long wanted to fight those people from the Imperial Military.

According to the letter, those who assassinated the retired courtiers were almost all big shots in the imperial military! They were subordinates of the legendary general Esdeath.

He is a bit restless...

The special items given by Miss Clara have not been used yet, and I am itching to use them!

"Do you need to notify Seryu?"

Tatsumi touched the back of his head out of habit and thought of their other member, the imperial weapon user of the security force who was brought here by Clara's mechanical friend.

After that person woke up, he cooperated with them very well.

It even made things much easier for her when dealing with some businessmen in the imperial capital.

By the way, Seleucia is preparing to join the "Hunter" organization formed by Esdeath. If successful, with her as an insider, many things will become easier.

"Sieryu? Forget it. She is more important to Miss Clara within the empire."

Sasha shook her head.

Seleuco's status in the empire makes him play a greater role as an insider.

Moreover, as a user of imperial weapons, there is a high possibility that she will join the "Hunter" team formed by Esdeath, and she cannot fail at this time.

"OK then!"

Hearing this, Tatsumi thought about it and it made sense.

There was no need to think too much. Although there were only three of them, they were enough to protect these targets and deal with the people of the empire.

This is true even if the opponent is an imperial tool user.

"Miss Clara gave us the secondary orders for the automated soldiers. We can also mobilize our robot friends here."

"Is that so? That's great!"

When they heard that they could mobilize the robots, Tatsumi and Esdeath's eyes lit up. They had had this idea for a long time.

"Hahaha, does this mean that my dream of becoming a general has been fulfilled?" Although the ones he commands are robots, he feels even more handsome!

Tatsumi couldn't help but laugh.

The general who commands the robots is so handsome.

This is the real steel torrent!

"Then let's set off now without further delay."

The situation here with Sau is still relatively better, but Tatsumi and Esdeath are already getting impatient.

......

a few days later.

Located in the suburbs not far from the border of the imperial capital, there is a small poor village with snowflakes falling and the land barren.

"It's been so long, Shayou, are you sure it's okay for us to ambush here?"

"Wow~~ It's a bit cold."

In a grove not far from the village, Tatsumi tightened his coat, feeling a little bored.

In addition to the three of them, there are many mechanical creatures hiding in the woods, just waiting for the order, and they will rush out at the first opportunity.

Tatsumi looked at the robots in the dark and couldn't help but sigh.

These robots are indeed the best soldiers and top killers.

It is not affected by cold or heat. When lurking, it makes no sound, not even breathing, and completely blends in with the environment.

This is something that human soldiers can never match.

"It can't be wrong."

"According to the regular intelligence, the next target of Esdeath's men is likely to be that highly respected former civil servant."

"It is very likely that the three beast warriors will appear at the same time."

Shayou leaned against the tree, her tone very sure...

According to intelligence, many former civil officials were tricked by Esdeath into going to the imperial capital with false summons to court, and then assassinated by those people, with the blame being put on Night Raid.

This is to completely destroy the reputation of Night Raid among the people in the imperial capital, so that everyone will condemn it.

And this time their target, the former minister, had just received a secret summons not long ago and would definitely set off for the imperial capital.

"By the way, Miss Clara said in the letter that the three beast warriors are all imperial weapon users?"

Iyeas suddenly thought of something and asked the two people next to him for confirmation.

"Yes, they are all imperial tools users. That's what Miss Clara said."

Sayou nodded.
