She didn't want her sister to die at the hands of the empire, so she had to kill her sister herself and use Bafang to make her sister into a puppet, so that her sister would not leave her. This is Hei Tong's morbid love for Chi Tong.
In times of pain, Hei Tong, who had an extremely strong love for Akame, had already begun to gradually distort.
Normally, Hei Tong wouldn't show anything, but once Chi Tong did something like betraying her, this distortion would slowly show up. Although Chi Tong knew it, she didn't understand Hei Tong that deeply.
If she could see that Hei Tong's attitude towards the empire was not so-called loyalty but fear, the current situation would not have occurred. At least the situation of sisters loving and hating each other would never have happened.
Now back to the topic, the scene returns to Koizumi who is studying the imperial equipment. Since he has already dealt with these killers, he might as well take a good rest. It is almost night time, so Koizumi thinks he should find a place to rest.
I must say that Gu Quan hadn't slept a wink all night. He resolved the matter in the imperial capital last night, and then set out that night after completing the mission. He then met Ushiwakamaru on the road and took the Almonda. By the way, I have to complain here that this world is really small, and the Almonda's flying speed is also very fast. From the imperial capital to Longxi, he arrived before noon.
However, this was also because Gu Quan had been traveling overnight. As soon as he completed his mission in the imperial capital, he took the initiative to ask Najeshitan for help. After finishing, he didn't even bother to say hello to Chi Tong and the others, and went straight to Longxi.
Before I knew it, this was already the sixth night since I came to this singularity.
Six days have passed, and I still don't even know what happened in this singularity. My efficiency is so low.
Come to think of it, Ritsuka seems to be doing something similar to himself, and there seems to be a Chaldea there as well. I wonder what's going on there, but if possible, Koizumi would like to go and see them.
After all, he is an old friend of mine. It would seem too cold if I didn't go to see him.
Back to the point, Koizumi is currently studying Hachifusa, trying to see if he can use this Teigu.
After all, I am not from this world, so can I use the special weapons of this world?
But after knocking here and there, the result is... so boring...
I'm actually here researching such boring things.
"Master Koizumi, are you planning to bring Kuroneko to Night Raid?"
Ushiwakamaru looked at Koizumi in front of him with a serious face. In fact, if it were the high-ranking officials of the Revolutionary Army, they would have wished that Kurome died, but Koizumi's behavior was completely contrary to their ideas.
Koizumi nodded slightly, glancing briefly at Kuroo.
"If the Revolutionary Army asks you, then please answer it. Just say that instead of killing Kuroneko, it would be better to recruit Kuroneko as a Teigu User to strengthen the Revolutionary Army. Which is more important, a bunch of dead people or a Teigu User? Let them think about it for themselves."
Ushiwakamaru just nodded silently, she didn't have any objection to this.
If she had to choose one, she would listen to Koizumi. It wasn't for anything else, but simply because Koizumi was the Master, and like her, he didn't belong to this world or this singularity. Moreover, he had the closest relationship with the Heroic Spirits. Compared to that group of people, Ushiwakamaru actually preferred Koizumi.
Chapter 132 Doubts
Koizumi, Ushiwakamaru, and Qin Xin plan to bring Kurome to the Night Raid headquarters.
It's very simple. Since we intend to persuade Hei Tong to surrender, the person responsible for persuading him to surrender must be Chi Tong.
It's not for any other reason, but because Akagi is Hei Tong's younger sister and the person who knows Hei Tong best, so she is very suitable for this job.
Although Koizumi felt speechless, even though he was the one who knew Kuroneko the best, he didn't realize that Kuroneko was not loyal to the empire, but was very afraid of the empire, so Kuroneko did not choose to betray the empire.
Therefore, Koizumi always felt that it was unreliable to leave this matter to Akadoshi, so it would be better for him to go and persuade Kurooshi to surrender himself.
Koizumi couldn't help but glance at Hei Tong. Hei Tong looked very obedient now, and it seemed that he had no intention of running away.
But this was only an appearance. Hei Tong was probably ready to take the imperial weapon and escape at any moment. With the imperial weapon Hachifu in her hands, the other party would definitely try their best to take Hachifu away, otherwise her strength would be greatly reduced.
If this was just an ordinary weapon, Koizumi would have thrown it away long ago. He wasn't very comfortable using this type of weapon.
When a Saber-class Servant is summoned someday, perhaps Koizumi will consider using the katana.
Currently, Koizumi has been using Gungnir all the time. After all, the young lady is a Lancer, and Koizumi has probably been prepared to use the spear for a long time. Since Qin Xin is also a Lancer, and the majority of his servants are Lancers, Koizumi has not yet prepared to use other weapons.
"Master Koizumi, you must protect the Eight Chambers. After all, it's an Imperial Artifact. It would be disastrous if it were taken away. Don't underestimate that Black Eye. The Imperial Assassination Corps has definitely taught assassins what to do if they're captured. So even if we capture him, we must not let our guard down!"
So, Ushiwakamaru is worthy of being Ushiwakamaru. Even at this time, he is very clear about the current situation.
Even if you catch Hei Tong, you must not be careless. If you fail here, it would be truly embarrassing.
That seems to be true... If I let Kuroneki get away here, I would be too embarrassed to go back and face Night Raid.
Gu Quan took a deep look at Hei Tong, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. The three of them were on guard against Hei Tong's escape. If Hei Tong could get away, that would be a disaster... But he was free now, so he might as well go over and talk to her.
It was starting to get dark, so the next thing to do was to take a good rest nearby.
Before taking a break, Koizumi still had some questions he wanted to ask Kuroneko, so it would be best to talk to her.
Slowly, Koizumi came in front of Hei Tong and slowly squatted down under Hei Tong's puzzled and wary gaze.
Although Hei Tong was very wary of Koizumi, for some reason, just staring at him always made her feel a sense of familiarity. Hei Tong didn't dislike this feeling, and she had no idea what was going on.
In fact, Koizumi also had the same feeling. As he looked at the other person, Koizumi felt calm in his heart.
While feeling calm, Koizumi also felt a hint of warmth in his heart, and the source of this warmth was very familiar.
Have I ever felt this kind of warmth before? Koizumi subconsciously placed his right hand on his chest.
The next moment, as if instinctively, Koizumi placed his right hand on Kurohō's head.
Hei Tong was slightly stunned, and did not resist at all. Instead, he showed a look of great enjoyment.
At this moment, Ushiwakamaru and Qin Xin looked at Koizumi and Kurohime with strange expressions. Wasn't their posture too strange? Why was Kurohime making that expression when Koizumi was stroking Kurohime's head?
Could it be that the two of them knew each other before? This strange thought emerged in Ushiwakamaru and Qin Xin's minds.
It’s no wonder that the two of them had such thoughts in their minds. After all, Hei Tong’s current performance really makes people think more.
But soon, Hei Tong seemed to notice his situation and began to struggle.
She broke free from Koizumi's right hand, and the next moment she looked at him with hostility, but there was a flicker of struggle in her eyes. She seemed not to want to break free from this situation, but her current position did not allow her to enjoy Koizumi's touch.
But what puzzled Hei Tong was why she didn't reject Koizumi's touch at all?
In response to Kurono's resistance, Koizumi simply chuckled and didn't intend to say anything more.
"Sure enough...we've known each other before, right? Hei Tong..."
After a while, Gu Quan finally spoke slowly, his tone full of doubt and a hint of seriousness.
Actually, it's normal to have such a tone. Koizumi has always thought it was very strange that he often had some familiar names in his mind for no apparent reason. Perhaps this was related to the crisis of this singularity.
Hei Tong was slightly stunned, then fell silent for a while and shook his head gently.
It's not that she doesn't know him, but she doesn't know about this matter either. Maybe she has lost her memory. If she is the only one who feels familiar with the other person, then it may be her illusion. But even Koizumi has this feeling, so this means that it is not her illusion, but she may really know the other person.
But why didn't he know about this? Did he really lose his memory? Obviously, his memory should be fine. At least Hei Tong didn't notice anything unusual in his memory.
So, Hei Tong wasn't sure if he knew the Koizumi in front of him.
In fact, Koizumi himself is the same. If there was anything wrong with his memory, Koizumi would have noticed it long ago. It's a pity that Koizumi's memory doesn't have the slightest bit of abnormality, so Koizumi himself is not very sure about this.
Otherwise, Koizumi wouldn't have come to question Hei Tong in person. After all, Hei Tong's attitude towards him was very strange.
"Don't you know him?" Koizumi felt a little regretful.
If the other person really knew me, I would have told him. Besides, he didn't look like he was lying.
What a pity, I originally wanted to use this method to resolve the doubt in my mind.
It seems like it's no use now... Koizumi couldn't help but let out a wry smile.
Slowly, Koizumi stood up and prepared to have a good rest. He hadn't slept a wink all night, so he had to get some rest. Otherwise, he was afraid that the tension would make him feel unwell.
At the same time, Hei Tong looked at Gu Quan in front of him with a complicated expression, his brows slightly furrowed.
Chapter 133 The Strange Place
Faintly, Koizumi felt that the environment around him seemed to have changed, because before going to bed, Koizumi slept with his back to the grass, but now his back was obviously very soft. It didn't look like he was sleeping on the grass at all!
Slowly, Koizumi couldn't help but open his eyes, not for any other reason, but simply because he felt something was wrong with his sleep.
Even though he fell asleep, Koizumi still hadn't let down his guard. Incidentally, even though he fell asleep, Koizumi still maintained his [Vampire] state. [Vampires] themselves were not very energetic in the morning, but were very energetic at night. It could be said that night was the strongest state of [Vampires], and also the time when they were most energetic.
So even if Koizumi falls asleep, he can still recover to his most energetic state anytime and anywhere.
This was the most convenient part of this state. After all, he was on a mission outside and couldn't afford to relax at all. So as soon as he felt something was wrong with his back, he immediately realized what the problem was.
I felt like I was in a completely different space from before, or strictly speaking, the environment was completely different.
An unfamiliar ceiling... Koizumi stared at the gorgeous ceiling and was slightly stunned.
It's a different place indeed. Why am I here? Koizumi's body subconsciously tensed.
I was in Longxi just a second ago, how could I suddenly appear in such a place?
Mana was faintly surging as Koizumi slowly rose from the bed. He did not use his Command Seals right away.
If he had just arrived at this singularity, Koizumi's power would not be that strong yet, and he might have chosen to use the Command Spell to directly summon Reimu, Qin Xin, and even Jingyi to his side.
But now Koizumi's own strength is sufficient, so he can still solve some unusual problems by himself.
"This place is quite magnificent... Speaking of which, could this be the imperial capital... perhaps even the imperial palace?"
Gu Quan's expression suddenly became complicated. If this was really the imperial capital, then there would be some trouble.
The combat effectiveness of those guys in the imperial capital is still very high. It would be very bad if we accidentally meet those two generals.
Koizumi didn't want to fight with Generals Bud and Esdeath, as that would only lead to his death.
According to Reimu's description, the great general named Bud is himself a hybrid of a Servant and a human, a bit like a Servant descending upon a human. Since both are the same existence, they can merge perfectly.
This is similar to how some servants rely on human power to possess and descend, becoming pseudo-servants.
Although they still have human characteristics in essence, their strength has long surpassed that of humans.
After all, the combat power of a servant is much stronger than that of an ordinary person, and Bud's strength is already the strongest in this singularity.
If you count Reimu and the others who came to repair the singularity, Reimu's strength is almost the same as Bud's.
However, Reimu is here to deal with General Bud, but who should deal with Esdeath, who has the same strength as Bud?
Although Gu Quan's combat power is not lower than Qin Xin's and can be considered among the combat powers, it is still a little worse than Ushiwakamaru.
Ushiwakamaru's combat power may be slightly weaker than Esdeath's, because Ushiwakamaru's combat power lies in her own skills and Noble Phantasms. The diversity of her Noble Phantasms allows her to exert extraordinary combat power in various situations.
But Esdeath is not only very skilled, but also very skilled in the use of imperial equipment.
If nothing unexpected happens, even Esdeath herself is probably a mixture of a servant and a human.
After all, if General Bud, the two most powerful generals of the empire, is summoned, then there is no doubt that Esdeath should also be summoned. These two are definitely the first people to be considered when summoning servants.
Koizumi's heart couldn't help but feel heavy. If that General Esdeath really was that person, it would be terrible.
Walking down this corridor with a heavy heart, Koizumi surveyed his surroundings, remaining cautious.
If an assassin suddenly appeared in a place like this, I guess I wouldn't even be able to react.
Besides, this place is really too narrow. It's really hard to fight in this place... In such a narrow place, I guess we can only engage in close combat... We really can't be careful...
Suddenly, there were bursts of footsteps coming from the front, and the sound was getting closer and closer.
Koizumi's steps suddenly paused, his brows furrowed slightly, the magic power within him already beginning to accumulate...
I was here as soon as I woke up, so I cannot rule out the possibility that I was brought here by the other party. However, when I was resting, I did not notice anyone approaching me and taking me away... So, what is going on?
For a moment, Koizumi was completely unaware of how he was taken away.
However, it doesn't matter if you don't know how you got here. After all, this is the Imperial Palace. No matter who you are, you must remain vigilant. According to Reimu and I's guess, this Imperial Palace itself has big problems.
Faintly, a scarlet light gathered on Koizumi's right hand. It wasn't Gungnir, just a missile. However, after the barrage of bullets, another [Gungnir] flew over. After all, he had to give it a try.
Slowly, a tall figure appeared in front of Koizumi. It was a military officer with silver-white hair.
Without saying anything, Koizumi fired a barrage of bullets at the opponent. If he didn't know the other party, then he was an enemy.
This officer is Riva, one of the three beast warriors following Esdeath.
Liva was not in a hurry. The next moment, a barrier formed by water appeared in front of Liva to block the attack.
"Mr. Koizumi, General Esdeath wants to see you..."
Riva didn't care at all about the attack that Koizumi had just launched against him. To him, if it was Esdeath who attacked him, he would resist. If Esdeath clearly wanted him dead, then Riva would die without hesitation.
For Riva, loyalty to Esdeath is everything, and to him, the empire's orders are everything.
But after being redeemed by Esdeath, Riva regarded Esdeath as everything to him.
Koizumi was a distinguished guest whom Esdeath had to take good care of herself, so he didn't take Koizumi's attack seriously at all.
If Esdeath chooses to betray the empire, then Riva will become her pawn without hesitation.
"General Esdeath is waiting for you at the training ground. Please allow me to take you there..."
Chapter 134 Information
"General Esdeath is waiting for you at the training ground. Please allow me to take you there..."
Riva's words startled Koizumi. What did he mean by that? Why did he feel like Esdeath knew me?
