Chapter 215: Sisters Meet

In the pitch-black night, the night breeze carried a pungent smell of blood. Aria looked at the person in front of her, trembling all over. She had never dreamed that she would one day be targeted by Night Raid. Thinking of the nobles who had died miserably at the hands of Night Raid, a layer of mist could not help but well up in Aria's pupils.

"Come on, boy, let me show you what the darkness of the Imperial Capital is!" Leone, already in her beast-transformed state, kicked open the door of the detached warehouse.

When Tatsumi saw the scene inside the warehouse, his eyes widened involuntarily. From childhood to adulthood, he had never witnessed such a tragic sight. Especially when he saw his two friends from the same village, he almost collapsed.

"See that? This is the darkness of the Imperial Capital. Luring these country folk into their home with sweet words, then subjecting them to the various tortures they are addicted to until they die—this is the true nature of this family!" Behind Tatsumi, Leone said with her arms crossed.

Seeing Tatsumi kill Aria with a sword strike without hesitation at the end, Leone narrowed her eyes, feeling that it seemed possible to pull this boy into Night Raid and make him their new strength.

"Watch out!" Just as Leone was grabbing Tatsumi and the group was about to retreat, Akame's pupils constricted, and her figure instantly turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed forward.

"What's wrong, Akame?" Leone was stunned as she watched Akame's movements.

"Oh no, the threads are broken!" Lubbock's expression changed drastically. In his perception, the threads laid out by his Teigu had actually all been severed in an instant. One must know that the threads extended from his Teigu were incomparably tough, but now they had been severed by someone in an instant, which showed the opponent's immense strength.

Having lost the threads, the members of Night Raid in mid-air had nowhere to leverage themselves and fell from the air all at once. Fortunately, none of them were ordinary people; they instantly steadied their figures in mid-air and landed slowly on the ground.

"Is there an enemy, Akame?" Bulat asked.

"I've finally found you, sister!" Before Akame could speak, another voice appeared in the courtyard.

Hearing this voice, Akame's body stiffened involuntarily. The other members of Night Raid had their expressions change slightly; before this person spoke, not one of them had sensed that there was another person nearby! In other words, if this person wished, she could take the life of anyone present with lower defensive capabilities at any time.

From the shadows of the courtyard, a girl whose age and appearance were very similar to Akame walked out slowly; it was Kurome, who had rushed over from the mansion.

"Kurome..." Akame's tone was somewhat complex.

"Come on, sister, ever since you left without leaving a single word, I made a decision in my heart: I will definitely bring you back!" Kurome slowly drew the Samurai Sword at her waist and spoke slowly.

"Akame, who is she?" Leone asked with some hesitation.

Akame did not answer, only quietly gripping the One Cut Killer in her hand. She felt that Kurome had locked onto her; the battle between the two of them was already unavoidable.

The two just stood facing each other quietly, but a circle of invisible aura had already enveloped everyone present. Leone seemed to want to say something, but closed her mouth again.

With a "swish," both of them moved almost at the same time, their Samurai Swords instantly turning into a blur of shadows as they clashed together.

"Clang, clang, clang!" Countless sparks erupted in the arena instantly. The figures of the two were as fast as lightning, and the blades in their hands were faster with every strike. Even though the members of Night Raid present were all extraordinary in strength, they could only vaguely see the phantom images of the Samurai Swords in their hands.

"Is this Akame's true strength?" Mine looked at the two fighting with disbelief.

"Boss once said that Akame's combat power is the most formidable among us, and now it seems that is indeed the case!" Bulat said slowly.

"Aren't you guys curious about who that girl is who looks exactly like Akame and has combat power almost equal to hers?" Leone said loudly.

"Sister, why did you leave my side? Wasn't it always your wish to stay with me and Master forever?" Kurome looked at Akame and said.

"Kurome, it is not yet time for me to go back. When the time comes, I will definitely go back!" Akame parried Kurome's Samurai Sword and explained.

"In the end, sister still doesn't want to come back?" A slightly broken smile appeared on Kurome's face. "If that's the case, then I can only crush you completely, sister, and carry you back afterwards!"

After saying this, Kurome's offensive became even more fierce. Akame continuously parried Kurome's attacks, her eyes full of surprise; when she left, Kurome's strength had not been this high. But this time, exchanging blows with Kurome, she was actually faintly able to match her; one could imagine how grueling the training Kurome had undergone during this period was.

"This is bad, the surrounding Imperial Guard members have already noticed the commotion here and have started to rush over!" Lubbock, who had set up warning threads in the surroundings, said to everyone present.

"But in this situation, how are we supposed to stop it? If any of us interferes in the battle between them, the outcome will be very miserable!" Bulat looked at the blade energy rampaging in the arena and said with a troubled expression.

Akame and the other, caught in the battle, were also gradually fighting with real fire, even using the blade energy they usually kept hidden. The ground had become a mess under the cutting of the blade energy. Facing this kind of battle, even Bulat, who had the strongest defense, did not dare to enter the battlefield easily.

"At a time like this, of course, it's time for me to make an appearance!" Mine raised the Pumpkin in her hand and said with a confident expression.

"Whoosh," an orange beam of light blasted toward the two in the arena.

Facing the beam of light attacking them both, Akame and Kurome, who were in the middle of fighting, turned their blades at the same time and slashed at the beam together. The tips of their blades actually overlapped in an instant, slicing the beam of light in two.

"What incredible tacit understanding!" Watching this scene, even Bulat was somewhat dumbfounded.

Because of Mine's intervention, the battle between Akame and Kurome was interrupted. Both retreated simultaneously, staring tightly at each other.

"Kurome, I will go back, but not now!" Akame put away the Murasame in her hand and said with a serious expression.

Kurome looked at the members of Night Raid behind Akame and couldn't help but narrow her eyes. She knew that although her strength had improved greatly, she was still lacking when facing Akame. Not to mention that Akame now had others by her side, and these people were not simple; it was impossible to keep Akame here today.

"Sister, one day, I will definitely tie you up and take you back! Definitely!" Kurome glanced at Akame, and her figure vanished into the darkness.

Akame and the others had already heard the sounds of the Imperial Guard members in the vicinity, so they did not dare to delay and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Just as everyone had left, Lingyun's figure appeared in this place. His gaze turned toward Sayo and Ieyasu who were on the scene: "Still have a breath left? It seems they can still be saved!"

Lingyun waved one hand, and the Source Power in his hand lifted the two of them, disappearing from the courtyard. When the members of the Imperial Guard rushed in, there was not a single living person left here.
