Chapter 137: Esdeath

Chapter 137: Esdeath

_______

Snowflakes flew through the air, and the cold wind cut like a knife.

On the flat ground, the ice and snow had been cleared away, and the tents were neatly arranged.

The camp was filled with an iron-blooded atmosphere, so much so that even the most dangerous creatures did not dare to approach.

Boom!

A loud noise suddenly erupted from the camp.

A tent was torn to shreds, snowflakes exploded in all directions, and a figure was thrown out.

"Is it this exciting already, right after arriving?" Aoki murmured, watching the swirling snowflakes.

Whoosh!

A cold mist rolled in, and a woman burst out from the snow. She had long blue hair, delicate and perfect features, and skin as fair and clear as crystal. Wearing a white officer's uniform, she made no attempt to hide her powerful aura.

"How dare you break into my tent! You've got some nerve!"

"This really was an accident!" Aoki protested, a hint of helplessness on his face.

Traveling through worlds means entering from and exiting at an extreme point.

The extreme point could appear anywhere, and it just so happened to be inside this woman's tent. Who could he complain to about that?

In truth, at this moment, he felt more amused than angry.

"World travel" and "space travel" are completely different.

Using "Space Shuttle" felt like diving into water and then emerging again.

"World Shuttle," on the other hand, was like diving into a body of water, but instead of a calm surface, it was a terrifying whirlpool that swallowed and tore everything apart.

It was filled with forces beyond imagination or understanding.

At first, Aoki thought he was done for.

Faced with such violent force, he felt like less than an ant—any slight contact would have torn him to shreds. His regenerative ability, which he had always relied on, seemed useless.

However, what happened next was completely unexpected.

The power of the silver flower on the back of his hand pulled him along, allowing him to float downstream through the vortex. Though it seemed chaotic, in truth, he was as steady as a seasoned traveler and emerged unscathed.

He didn't know how long he had been drifting, but suddenly he came across an exit. Before he could react, he was flung out and landed in the woman's tent.

Though he hadn't stumbled upon a scene like someone changing clothes or bathing, the fierce woman attacked him without hesitation, leaving him no chance to explain.

"Once I catch you and torture you, we'll see if it was an accident or not!"

The blue-haired woman had a fanatical smile on her face as an icicle materialized beneath her feet, pushing her swiftly towards Aoki.

"Superpowers? Magic? Or something else?" Aoki thought, intrigued.

To encounter a supernatural being so soon after arriving in this world—his decision to travel had certainly been the right one.

More importantly, this woman was strong!

Whoosh!

With a flash of cold silver light, the sword pierced through Aoki's heart from a tricky angle, penetrating his body and splattering blood.

Aoki countered with a backhand punch aimed at the blue-haired woman's face.

The ice condensed instantly, forming a solid shield.

Boom!

Aoki's fist struck the ice shield, but it remained unscathed.

The blue-haired woman's eyes flashed with surprise as she swung her sword again.

Aoki dodged, but an ice blade flew past, severing his right arm below the shoulder.

Crash!

A pair of massive black bat wings unfurled from his back, and Aoki shot into the sky, putting distance between himself and the blue-haired woman.

"Phew! Even stronger than I expected."

There was a mix of seriousness and excitement in his eyes as his severed arm instantly regenerated.

The smile on the blue-haired woman's face grew even more excited, like a hunter spotting exceptional prey. "Is that your Teigu? It feels a bit strange. Also, I recall there being winged Teigu, but they didn't look like this."

"Imperial Tool?" Aoki was momentarily stunned, and the figure of the blue-haired woman quickly became familiar. "Could it be... you, Esdeath?"

"That's right!" Esdeath replied, her gaze fixed on Aoki with growing excitement. "So, what is your purpose? Are you here to kill me?"

"I told you, it's really just a coincidence!" Aoki felt both relieved and slightly regretful.

"Esdeath," "Imperial Tool" — then this must be the world of *Akame ga Kill!* He had initially thought that people of this strength were common here, but he hadn't expected to encounter the strongest one right away.

Esdeath, the blue-haired woman standing before him, was arguably the most formidable being in this world.

This had both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage was that his safety was somewhat assured. For now, even though Esdeath was incredibly powerful, she couldn't completely restrain him. If even she couldn't capture him, there wasn't much to worry about from others.

The disadvantage, however, was that if the level of power in this world was limited, the chances of solving his dilemma were reduced. Additionally, the unique powers of this world mainly revolved around Imperial Tools, which were specialized weapons.

"I'll determine for myself if it was a coincidence or not!" Esdeath declared with a manic grin, snapping her fingers.

The sky suddenly darkened.

Aoki looked up to see a massive block of ice, as large as a hill, forming above his head before crashing down with a thunderous bang.

At the same time, a path of ice appeared in the air. Esdeath stepped onto it, quickly closing the distance between them.

Aoki flapped his wings and dodged to the side.

Esdeath waved her arms, and countless ice spikes materialized around her.

*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!*

The ice spikes shot toward Aoki, piercing his body with holes, but the next moment, all the wounds healed.

"Incredible regenerative ability. Is that also the power of an Imperial Tool?" Esdeath wondered aloud.

She suddenly leaped up, flipped over, and slashed down with her sword from above.

Aoki's figure vanished silently.

A platform of ice appeared under Esdeath's feet, supporting her body. She turned to look at Aoki, who had reappeared not far away, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

"Another ability... I'm getting more and more curious. Are you some kind of humanoid dangerous species? No, ordinary dangerous species don't have such regenerative powers!" She chuckled. "Hehehe, with your physique, it must be very entertaining to torture you!"

Aoki flapped his wings and shot into the sky.

Esdeath halted her attack, a slightly disappointed look in her eyes.

"Esdeath, we'll meet again!" Aoki called out, flapping his wings as he quickly flew away.

Arriving in this world and immediately meeting its strongest person… Not ideal.

Better to make a strategic retreat for now.

Esdeath slowly descended to the ground.

Several figures immediately surrounded her, their eyes filled with fanaticism and respect.

"General!"

"General, who was that just now? Was he an assassin sent by the northern alien tribes?"

"Idiot! What assassin would dare to attack the general? I think he's more likely a spy."

"A spy? What kind of spy could make it to the center of our camp?"

They all began discussing at once.

Esdeath didn't join in. She was still replaying the recent battle in her mind, a smile lingering on her face.

"What an interesting prey. I have a feeling we'll meet again"
