Anime Group Chat: The Tree of Life Contract Heroine of All Worlds

The massive icicles weigh several tons and could easily crush a human into mincemeat.

But at this critical moment, Ernest unleashed tremendous potential as he faced death.

The jeweled headdress on her forehead suddenly lit up, and then Rosen and the others saw Esdeath's body pause, and the ice pillar she summoned shattered into tiny ice shards.

"Well..."

Esdeath swayed precariously, and cracks instantly appeared on her snow-white skin, clearly indicating that a large number of capillaries in her body had ruptured.

When Rosen appeared beside her and supported her, her body temperature was dropping rapidly.

Marushir let out a gasp.

Saeko Busujima had already taken Muramasa Tachi out of the chat group's temporary storage box. Seeing Ernest trying to run away, she moved her feet a few times, and her body, enhanced by the gene serum, blocked Ernest's escape route with a light touch.

"Lady, please spare my life, lady, please spare my life!"

Ernest immediately knelt down.

However, Saeko Busujima, having already known about Ernest's various heinous acts, was unaffected and prepared to wield her blade.

Seeing that the woman did not hesitate, Ernest's expression turned ruthless, and his fleshy, obese body suddenly sprang up, unleashing a speed that was not befitting its size.

Ernest was once a martial artist from the Imperial Fist Temple, a renowned boxing gym in the empire.

Later, after entering officialdom, his figure became out of shape and he became obese.

Although many years have passed, the foundation is still there.

In addition, his body is covered in fat and muscle, making it difficult for even three or five ordinary men to get close to him.

Ernest's large hands were like palm-leaf fans.

Saeko Dokushima easily dodged the attack by leaping up, and at the same time, she launched an attack with her katana, easily dislocating Ernest's two arms.

Fresh blood spurted from the wound.

Ernest, who had never felt pain before, let out a pig-like scream.

Blood even splattered onto the young emperor's face.

And at this time.

A voice filled with anger rang out from the imperial court.

"What on earth are you doing?!"

Bud looked shocked and furious.

He never imagined things would turn out this way.

Enraged, azure currents coursed through his body, then pierced the air and shot towards Saeko Busujima, who had severely injured Ernest.

"How can I let you succeed!"

Although Marushir was afraid, she was already prepared.

A staff made from a branch of the World Tree fired an attack spell, blocking Bud's attack.

Rosen, meanwhile, was examining Esdeath's injuries.

"I am fine."

Esdeath was not used to such close contact with the opposite sex, and gradually regained her strength to push Lawson away with both hands.

"What just happened? My blood felt like it was boiling?"

"We were careless. It seems we all forgot that Ernest also has an Imperial Arm."

Rosen grinned, and holy light appeared in his hand, healing Esdeath's wounds.

In the blink of an eye, Esdeath's injuries were healed, but her body was still covered with nearly dried bloodstains, which looked quite eerie.

"Damn old man! How dare you make me look so pathetic!"

Esdeath, now recovered, stood up steadily, her eyes blazing as she stared intently at Ernest's voice.

The jewelry that was originally worn on his forehead was broken.

That headdress is also an Imperial Arm.

It is called the jeweled headdress "Eleston".

A rare protective Imperial Arm.

An anti-Teigu that can destroy an opponent's Teigu.

As long as the user of an Imperial Arms enters the area of ​​effect, they can destroy the opponent's Imperial Arms at the cost of shattering the gem.

The damaged gemstone needs a week to regenerate and will be unusable during this period.

Although it has no effect on ordinary people, it has a surprisingly good effect on users of Imperial Arms.

After all, it's only a week of not being able to use the jeweled headdress; compared to the enemy's Imperial Arm being destroyed, this price is perfectly acceptable.

In the original story, Ernest used this headdress to destroy Leone's Teigu.

After losing her transformation ability, Leone was shot in the abdomen by Ernest's pistol. Although she won, Leone died from blood loss.

"Fortunately, your Imperial Arm is quite special. If it were an external object, it would probably have been shattered by now. But if it weren't for us, you would probably be a prisoner by now."

Although she has recovered, Esdeath, whose Teigu was affected, is no match for Budo.

And speaking of Bud...

Marushir is fighting him.

But perhaps because his own offensive magic was too weak, it was all blocked by the lightning surrounding Bud.

"Esdeath, do you know what you've done?! You've murdered an Imperial Minister in court! Are you trying to rebel?!"

Bud's entire body surged with azure lightning, and his blond hair stood straight up.

“That’s right, Bud, I’m going to rebel.”

Esdeath spat out the blood in her mouth and gave a cold smile.

"As an imperial general, do you know what you're saying?! Beg the emperor for forgiveness now, and you might escape death!"

Bud was furious, his voice booming like thunder.

"As expected, Bud, you're too old-fashioned. I'm about to rebel, why should I apologize to the emperor?"

Esdeath's mocking smile deepened.

He swore not to interfere in politics?

Although the original intention was not to separate civil and military affairs into 107, it has caused extremely negative consequences.

Of course, Bud knew about what Minister Ernest had done over the years.

But they turned a blind eye to it.

The Empire's current state is largely due to Bud.

"Cough cough..."

After Esdeath finished speaking, she suddenly coughed a few times.

The aftereffects of the jeweled headdress are still present, and restoring it to its original state will not be a matter of a short time.

"Since that's the case, then I'll kill you all right here, and no one will object!"

Bud was enveloped in lightning.

Even the weather outside the capital city was affected. When dark clouds arrived, they were accompanied by a large amount of lightning, which looked like dragons and snakes moving wildly and were quite frightening.

"I..."

Bud will command lightning to wipe out Esdeath and her treacherous followers.

As for Ernest's life or death, he didn't really care.

His anger stemmed solely from the presence of the young emperor.

And Esdeath, like him, was also a military commander.

Since he is a military general, he should not interfere in court affairs!

"Kneel down."

Two words of admonition drifted lightly from the imperial court.

In an instant, Bud's knees buckled uncontrollably.

The accumulated lightning dissipated instantly, and Bud, who was kneeling down, showed an expression of incomprehension.

Chapter 138 Open Your Eyes

.

"So, are there any other tricks?"

Rosen politely raised his hand, indicating to Bud that he had no other trump cards.

But Bud couldn't even control his body; he could only kneel motionless, his knees rooted to the spot.

Upon seeing this, Esdeath looked at Rosen in disbelief.

"What ability is this?"

"It's a very ordinary Word of Power, but I don't usually use it."

Rosen said.

Esdeath was speechless.

She suddenly remembered that if Rosen had used his Word of Power when they first started fighting, would she have been defeated immediately?

The reason I didn't do that was entirely out of consideration for her...

[I Don't Want to Eat Monsters: "We've already taken care of things on this side."]

[I Don't Want to Eat Monsters: "Bud has been dealt with, Minister Honest had both arms cut off by Miss Busujima, Bud has also been dealt with by Lord Rosen, and the soldiers in the royal city have all been persuaded by Esdeath to surrender."]

[The Bored Angel: "Huh?! So fast? I only just made contact with Night Raid, and Fubuki is trying to persuade them."]

[The Bored Angel: "Although it was supposed to be persuasion, we actually fought once. They stopped after confirming we weren't from the Empire. Najenda even wants to recruit us."]

[The Bored Angel: "But how come you guys are so fast? Aren't you still got Bud and the Guardian Machine God?"]

[I Don't Want to Eat Monsters: "Bud has been controlled by Lord Rosen using his Word of Power. The Guardian Mech God requires royal blood to activate, but..."]

At this point, Marushir glanced at the young emperor on the throne.

The little boy's clothes were soaked through.

He was sitting on it, trembling, not daring to utter a sound.

[I Don't Want to Eat Monsters: "He's so scared he wet his pants; he's completely incapable of fighting."]

[Bukushima: "Miss Esdeath is slightly injured."]

[The lazy angel: "Huh?! Esdeath is injured?"]

[Shepherd: "Before attacking, I subconsciously forgot about Honest's anti-Teigu 'Jeweled Headdress.' Esdeath took the hit, but she's mostly unharmed, just unable to use her Teigu for a while."]

[The Bored Angel: "I see, so that old man Ernest Bitten used this thing to trick Leone in the anime, otherwise he would have been dead long ago."]

[The Bored Angel: "Oh right, I'll tell Night Raid about what happened in the capital."]

Gabriel temporarily left the chat group.

Then, a dialogue between Fubuki and Najenda is inserted.

"Alright, Najenda and the Night Raid crew, my comrades have already dealt with Bud and Ernest. The ministers you all wanted to tear to pieces are practically reduced to human stumps."

Gabriel stood with her hands on her hips, looking very confident.

"what?"

"How can this be?"

"This isn't child's play. How could you possibly catch Ernest?"

"If it were that easy, we would have killed him long ago."
