Chapter 238: Syura's Return

Not long after Lingyun and the other person left, two figures appeared near this place; they were Akame and Leone from Night Raid.

"Akame, is this the place where such a huge commotion occurred just now?" Leone asked, following behind Akame.

"That's right, it's right up ahead!" Akame nodded.

"Hiss, what is this situation?" When Leone saw the scene, she couldn't help but gasp.

In the clearing in front of them, countless corpses of Humanoid Danger Beasts lay scattered in disarray. Besides that, there were quite a few Danger Beasts encased in ice. What was most terrifying was that near the cave, there were several huge craters, and the ground was covered in countless deep furrows, as if it had been plowed by someone.

Akame's gaze swept over a large crater, and seemingly discovering something, she ran quickly to the side of that crater. At the bottom of this large crater, there were some substances similar to glass, but only a wisp of heat was overflowing from the crater. Seeing these things, Akame's expression changed slightly.

"This trace was caused by the Nine Suns Heavenly Art. Could it be that the person who fought here just now was Master?" Akame's gaze swept over the corpses of the Danger Beasts on the ground. "But, who killed these guys? Judging from the state of these corpses, the person who made the move definitely does not have low strength; I'm afraid they are on the same level as Senior Sister Esdeath. When did such an expert appear by Master's side?"

"Akame, looking at the traces here, could the person who made the move be Esdeath?" Leone said, looking at the frozen Danger Beasts. "She is the only one who would use such methods!"

"No, it's not Esdeath. In this world, Esdeath is not the only person who can command ice and snow. Let's leave this place first. If Esdeath comes over in a moment, it won't be easy for us to get away!" Akame said.

Leone nodded slightly; she did not have much doubt about Akame's words. Moreover, looking at Akame's appearance, the situation here was nine times out of ten related to her mysterious Master. Only when mentioning her Master would Akame appear in this state.

Not long after the two left, Esdeath appeared in this place with Kurome.

"It really is a trace left by Lingyun. However, to cause such a big commotion, could it be that he ran into some troublesome opponent here?" Esdeath frowned slightly as she looked at the scene.

"I guess something went wrong with these Danger Beasts. The wounds on the Danger Beasts here were basically left by Senior Sister Busujima Saeko, and the traces left by Master are on the other side. I don't know what kind of opponent appeared to make both of them take action together!" Kurome leaned down and said, looking at the Danger Beasts on the ground.

"Since this place has already been wiped out by Lingyun and the other, there definitely won't be any survivors left! Let's go look elsewhere first! These Danger Beasts' strength is improving too fast, and I'm afraid my subordinates will suffer!" Esdeath looked into the distance.

This time, the number of Humanoid Danger Beasts was surprisingly high, and their strength was quite high. If it weren't for her and Kurome holding the fort, I'm afraid the Empire's Army would have really suffered a great loss at the hands of these guys.

Not long after Esdeath left, a man wearing a cloak emerged from the jungle. This person looked at this battlefield and couldn't help but exclaim: "To think there are such experts in the Imperial Capital; it really cannot be underestimated! I imagine it will be very interesting after I return to the Imperial Capital! It's just that I don't know if that damn guy is also in the Imperial Capital!"

A gust of wind blew the man's cloak, revealing a face with a cross-shaped scar. This person was none other than the once notorious playboy in the Imperial Capital, the only son of Minister Honest—Syura.

As for Syura, the older people in the Imperial Capital had all heard of him. He was a young bully, the son of the Empire's Minister, who committed all kinds of evil in the Imperial Capital region. His personality was no less cruel than his father's; he was brutal and lecherous, relying on his father's power to harm innocent girls everywhere. Later, in order to surpass his father, he left the Imperial Capital and embarked on a path to make himself stronger, which gave the Imperial Capital a period of peace. If the people of the Imperial Capital knew that this scourge had returned, I'm afraid it would stir up a panic!

Just as the man in the cloak was sighing, several more figures emerged from the jungle behind him.

"Ara, this really is an exaggerated battlefield." A girl looked at this place and said with some amazement.

"Is this the strong person in the Imperial Capital that you, Syura, spoke of? It really can stir up my desire to fight. Only the blood of such a person can become the best Blood Sacrifice for my sword!" One of the swordsmen gently stroked his Samurai Sword, a trace of fighting spirit rising in his eyes.

"That's why I said, in this Imperial Capital, you will definitely not be bored!" Syura hooked his lips into a smile, "Now, let us go back to the Imperial Capital and find some fun!"

"Lingyun, Humanoid Danger Beasts have appeared; does that mean the Wild Hunt led by Syura is also about to appear?" Busujima Saeko, who was traveling through the jungle, said to Lingyun.

"It's possible. If we follow the original plot of this world, these Danger Beasts should have been released by Syura. But now that these Danger Beasts have undergone such great changes, perhaps they broke out of the laboratory on their own!" Lingyun said. "But don't worry, as long as we go back once, we will know if they have appeared. After all, if villains like them appear in the Imperial Capital, they will definitely stir up a storm!"

"People like them really are better off going to Hell as soon as possible!" Recalling the actions of the group in Wild Hunt from the original work, Busujima Saeko couldn't help but frown slightly.

Among these guys, the swordsman Ibara likes to kill to perform a Blood Sacrifice on his sword, Dorothea likes to suck people into mummified corpses, Cosmina loves to toy with men, the pirate Enshin is no less brutal than Syura and also likes to toy with women, and the clown Champ is mentally twisted; because he does not want children to become dirty adults, he cruelly kills them. In short, not one of them is a good thing.

However, thinking of Syura's Teigu named Shangri-La, Busujima Saeko couldn't help but frown slightly: "If the opponent uses that Teigu to escape, I'm afraid you will also find it tricky! Should we take this Teigu back? Something like this definitely has great use on Earth!"

"Not necessarily. The space barrier of this world is still quite weak; otherwise, Esdeath's Mahapadma would not be able to freeze time and space so easily, and Shangri-La would not be able to perform Space Transmission so easily. In this situation, I can directly capture their transmission location through the residual spatial fluctuations!" Lingyun waved his hand. "If it were on Earth, if one wanted to use Shangri-La to transmit, its range would be reduced by at least ten times!"

"Reduced by ten times? Is the space of Earth that solid?" Busujima Saeko was slightly taken aback.

"That goes without saying." Lingyun nodded slightly, then suddenly frowned. "It really is a disobedient little kitten, actually running out on her own!"

"Little kitten? You mean Chelsea?" Busujima Saeko frowned slightly.

"Forget it, let her suffer a little first. Anyway, with my Bell, she won't die!" Lingyun said. "Now let's go see how Sayo and the others are doing!"
