I, Tsugumi Yuichiro, must do something

A guess that he was unwilling to admit was getting closer and closer to reality.

The only gap between them is the ocean.

But that is his only hope of returning to his hometown.

Chapter 63: General Budd's Doubts, Foreseeable Battle

"The revolutionary army cooperates with foreign ethnic groups."

"It seems these guys are starting to get desperate."

In a residence of the Imperial Palace Guards.

A dozen generals in armor and some civil officials gathered in a hall.

General Bud held the letter delivered by Guard Corps member Yoshikazu Tsugakuni, and his brows were tightly furrowed.

"The newly appointed captain of the security team is a very capable person. We have also investigated and found that he and Ernest are not as close as rumored. We should try to win him over."

"If he'd been on our side, we'd have had a chance of getting Ernest out of office."

In front of Bud, a military officer stepped forward. He was Bud's adjutant, and among everyone except Bud, he had the highest prestige.

"What are you doing?"

"Military officers are not allowed to interfere in politics. This is a training exercise. We just need to protect such officials."

"As long as Ernest doesn't cross that red line, we shouldn't interfere."

As the supreme commander of the imperial army, General Bud has always been a model of strict adherence to organizational training.

Hearing his men's remarks, General Bud's tone became stern.

"As for that little fellow, he's a very courageous man. If he gets into trouble, we'll do our best to protect him."

Bud stood up from his seat. He was well aware of the corruption in the empire, and the struggle between civil servants was nothing to him.

If military officers are allowed to join the struggle.

Then the empire may not be far from its demise.

By then, I'm afraid that there will be a situation of warlords fighting for power, and the empire will fall apart in no time.

In his view, the so-called power struggle is vulnerable in the face of absolute strength.

Over the years, he has been waiting for the little emperor to grow up.

In his opinion, as long as the little emperor grew up and thoroughly understood what it meant to be a king, and given that he had always had a firm grip on the military power, those so-called power struggles would be nothing but a joke.

"But if we don't fight for it, and one day he is controlled by Ernest..."

"Okay, stop talking, everyone, leave."

The adjutant did not want to give up. He looked at General Bud, ready to continue persuading him.

But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by General Bud.

'Is my persistence wrong?'

After hearing what General Budd said, everyone who had gathered in the hall left in disappointment.

Looking at the empty hall after everyone left.

General Bud stood in the living room, and when he thought of the complicated expressions on his subordinates' faces just now, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

This is not the first time I have been persuaded like this.

Every time it ends in such a unhappy way.

And the number of officials coming to his hall became fewer and fewer.

This includes colleagues with whom he has worked for decades.

. . . . . .

"Goodbye, Master."

Another new day.

After the morning training ended, Tatsumi said goodbye to Yoriichi Tsugakuin.

Then he led a team of security guards to the slums.

During this period, except for morning training, he basically stayed in the slums all the time.

"Tomorrow is a day off."

"I need a good day of sleep. I feel like I'm about to collapse from exhaustion in the past half month."

After the morning training, Iyeas was like a dog, sticking out his tongue.

Because of the inspiration from Tatsumi and Sau, he has been very hardworking in his recent morning training, but his hard work has paid off.

After Sayu, Tatsumi, and Sero, he was the fourth person to master the breathing technique.

"I'm leaving now. I'm going to catch ten bad guys today."

Compared to Iyeas's listlessness, Serius was the complete opposite of him. She was full of energy and took Xiaobi with her as if she had been injected with chicken blood. She jumped directly out of the guard post's gate.

Leaving two deep footprints in the yard.

After practicing the breathing method, even without using the power of the imperial weapon, Seruliu's strength has been greatly improved.

Although among four people.

She was the last one to learn the breathing technique, but she was the fastest learner among the group.

"Sister Seriou's strength seems to have increased again."

"She practices the most seriously among us."

Looking at the big pit in the yard, Shayou felt a little emotional.

I don’t know when Selius started to become extremely serious in training.

Never missed morning training.

“Selius really works hard.”

Ji Guoyuan nodded.

As the master of several people, he could naturally see everyone's practice situation at a glance.

However, Yuichiro Tsugikuni was a little worried about this situation.

After all, if the markings are awakened, the price to pay will be too high.

"Master, I'm afraid we need to recruit more people."

"The workload has been so intense lately that many team members have resigned."

Back in the office, Saya placed a stack of resignation letters in front of Yuichiro Tsugikuni.

Ji Guoyuan had anticipated this matter a long time ago.

In fact, he has been using this method to screen out those guards who are unwilling to work in the security team.

Now, only half a month has passed, and only about one-fifth of the entire security team is left.

"Over there in the slums, you can go and take a look."

After thinking about it, Yuichiro Tsugikoshi soon came up with an idea.

Compared to before, those who used connections to get into the security team.

Those refugees who can't even get enough food to eat will definitely cherish the work of the security team even more.

And this can also save some refugees to a certain extent.

"Ah."

Sayou nodded.

She knew the situation in the slums.

Born into poverty, she knew full well that those people would definitely do their utmost if they had a way to survive.

"meet again."

"Captain Yunyi's intelligence yesterday caused quite a stir in the court."

There was a knock on the door, and when Shayou opened the door, Hei Tong appeared outside.

"Of course, I didn't come here to talk about this."

"This is the invitation General Esdeath asked me to deliver. Captain Yunyi, please attend the banquet on time."

Hei Tong smiled mysteriously, then handed an invitation to Yuichiro Tsugikoku's desk.

Just received this request.

In fact, she was also a little bit unbelievable, but then she remembered that Yoriichi Tsugakuni once defeated the combined forces of five imperial weapon users.

She immediately understood.

Esdeath is a battle maniac, and she can even foresee that a duel will inevitably break out between the two of them.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Who will win between this guy in front of me, who is known by the outside world as one of the strongest men in the current empire, and Esdeath?

Chapter 64: Seeds of Doubt, Chelsea's Complex Emotions

'What does she want from me?'

Faced with Esdeath's invitation to the banquet, Yoriichi Tsugikuni was a little confused.

Although he had met Esdeath once, they had no interaction.

Watching Hei Tong leave with a slight smile, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi frowned slightly.

"Master, have you encountered any difficulties?"

"Maybe I can help."

While helping Yuichiro Tsuchiya to organize documents, Sayou saw Yuichiro Tsuchiya in deep thought, so she sat down on the chair, resting her chin on her hand and asked with concern.

"General Esdeath invited me to a banquet in three days."

"Because I'm not familiar with her, I'm a little confused."

Ji Guoyuan pushed the invitation sent by Hei Tong in front of him in front of Saya.

The time and place of the banquet are written above.

"Perhaps he's asking about something related to the Alien Clan and the Revolutionary Army."

"But it's also possible that I want to meet a famous person like you, Master."

Sau helped Yoriichi Tsugakuni put away the invitation. In fact, although she had heard of Esdeath a long time ago, she only knew some legends.

What kind of person is Esdeath?

She didn't know.

"By the way, Master, I want to go to a church in the suburbs tomorrow."

"I heard the gods there are particularly effective."

Sayu and Tatsumi are both believers of the Way of Tranquility. In their hometown, many people believe in the Way of Tranquility.
