I, Hikaru Uchiha, join the chat group

"Gudong-"

Inside the Ernest mansion.

Kosmia, who changed into a soldier's uniform and lay among the corpses, pretending to be dead, swallowed hard and felt panicked.

She can be considered a person who has seen the world.

Before she met Sheila, she was already a notorious "witch" in the Western Kingdom and was known for her flamboyant behavior. After joining Sheila's team, she followed the latter to cause chaos everywhere. Although her main hobby was playing with men and she didn't kill many people with her own hands, she still did a lot of deviant things.

But now...

She felt that the girl named Uchiha Hikaru was the real "witch".

It would be fine to kill Sheila and his party in the middle of the empire. After all, it is a remote area. Even if Ernest gets the news, it will be difficult for him to intervene...

But this is the imperial capital!

No matter how powerful he is, to attack Minister Ernest's mansion by himself... this kind of thing is too outrageous to say the least! Even if it succeeds, are we really not afraid that the empire will unleash the fury of thunder and send a large number of men to encircle and suppress it?

of course……

Kosmia was not worried about Uchiha Hikaru's safety.

After all, the latter has that magical flying ability and the "Shangri-La" Teleportation Equipment seized from Sheila. Even if he really encounters a powerful enemy that he cannot defeat, no one can stop him if he wants to run away.

She is worried about herself——

When Uchiha Hikari first entered the depths of the mansion, Kosmia was still in a state of total demobilization after being suppressed by the gravity field of the "Judgment Gun" and was unable to move freely. She also had the intention to observe Uchiha Hikari and Ones. As a result of the special battle, he did not choose to escape immediately.

result.

When she realized something was wrong and wanted to run away, she found that Ernest's mansion had been surrounded by a large number of imperial soldiers.

Even General Bude, who is as famous as Esdeath, is in the team.

At this moment, Kosmia had no chance even if she wanted to run away. She could only quietly change into the clothes of a palace soldier, wipe a few handfuls of blood on her face and body, lie down among a pile of corpses and pretend to be dead, trying to use this Way to muddle through.

It was going very smoothly.

Because of the darkness of the night and the large number of casualties, Bude did not find her.

The soldiers who checked the scene simply took a breath and carried her and several other corpses onto the cart, preparing to send them to the crematorium for cremation when the matter was over.

Can……

Just when Cosmia quietly opened her eyes, she planned to observe the situation and find an opportunity to slip away.

She heard a soldier next to her give a short exclamation:

"who?!"

"!"

Kosmia's heart skipped a beat, thinking that her act of pretending to be dead had been discovered.

But the next moment, she heard the voices of several other soldiers, and someone was pointing into the night sky: "It's up there!"

"Be careful...it may be an enemy attack!!"

While talking.

I saw a huge flying dragon, with the sound of hunting wind, flying all the way from the high sky outside the imperial capital, aiming directly in the direction of Minister Ernest's residence.

Sitting on Feilong were several people in different costumes, led by a white-haired woman wearing an eyepatch.

——The boss of "Night Raid", Najehitan.

The headquarters of "Night Raid" is not too far from the imperial capital, located in a deep mountain dozens of miles away. After receiving Hill's message, Najiexitan made a prompt decision, summoned Chi Tong, Ma Yin, Leonai and others who were present and rushed over quickly, wanting to confirm the situation with her own eyes.

Najiesitan probably has some judgment about Uchiha Hikari's strength.

Just like she had seriously underestimated Esdeath's strength, in her opinion, Uchiha Hikaru was only slightly stronger than Brand and Chitong. With the ability to fly in the air, it was not surprising that he could kill Sheila and his party. But choosing to assassinate Ernest in the imperial capital was undoubtedly a very risky decision.

Not to mention the death of Sheila, Ernest had already learned about it, which made him more vigilant.

Even if the assassination can be successfully completed, he will probably be hunted down and intercepted by the imperial army afterwards, resulting in injury or even capture.

and so.

Najiexitan's purpose of bringing people here this time was partly to meet Uchiha Hikari.

——It would be a pity for such a powerful combat force that can provide considerable help to the revolutionary army to die here.

but……

"Huh? Where is that Miss Guang?

"Is the battle over so soon?"

High in the sky.

Najiexitan looked at the messy scene of blood and flesh in the courtyard below, and she probably guessed what happened before -

"Sure enough, even with Miss Guang's strength, assassinating Minister Ernest is still too reluctant. The battle scene is so tragic, I'm afraid she has already..."

"Wait, who is that?"

Under Najiexitan's gaze, a blazing bolt of lightning burst out from the courtyard, like a javelin, piercing straight into the sky with unparalleled momentum!

At the critical moment, the flying dragon carrying the "Night Raid" group suddenly flapped its wings and narrowly avoided the attack.

As the thunder javelin exploded in mid-air, illuminating the surrounding night, the group saw a tall figure wearing armor walking out of the house and looking up.

"General Bude?!"

Najiexi's heart sank: "I didn't expect that this person would appear here. It seems that Miss Guang's assassination operation has indeed failed..."

In the courtyard of the mansion.

Bude also snorted coldly, with a murderous intent flashing between his brows: "It is indeed you, 'Night Raid'! Najiexitan, you were once an imperial general who was deeply favored by the country. Defection is already a capital crime for treason. Is this how you repay His Majesty now?!"

"...I'm sorry, we don't agree with each other. The empire is now in decay and has reached the point where it must be changed. Why do you need to go against the general trend?"

"Humph!"

Bude moved his eyes away disdainfully and glanced at the red pupil next to Najiexitan: "The girl with black hair and red eyes... the murderer who killed Minister Ernest, is it you? You have such a powerful power. , but instead of serving the Empire, he went astray, which is really regrettable."

Najiexitan and Chitong: "Huh?"

At this moment.

Both sides have some questions in their minds.

For example, Najexitan was surprised by the news that "Ernest is dead" revealed in Bude's words.

But Bude was wondering when and where Yu Chitong, the "real murderer" who completed the assassination, slipped out of the mansion and was picked up by the "night attack" Feilong.

But at this time, there is obviously no time to discuss these issues.

As Bude's momentum exploded, the thunderclouds in the sky quickly condensed, and the general's body also floated into the air surrounded by thunder and lightning, with blue-purple arcs of light lingering around him.

——Wrath of Thor Admelech.
