Chapter 98

After General Budo left the hall, Honest summoned all the Imperial Gear users he could now use, as well as the executioners from the Imperial Capital martial arts organization 'Emperor Fist Temple'.

Honest held his head high and opened his arms towards the young emperor on the throne, with a proud look on his face.

"Your Majesty, these are the powerful Teigu users who are loyal to Your Majesty and the masters of the Imperial Fist Temple who are comparable to the Teigu users."

"The Teigu user of Flying Away Mostima, currently serving in the Imperial Capital Public Security Police Force."

The handsome young man knelt on one knee towards the young emperor and lowered his head. "My name is Lan, Your Majesty."

"The current assassination force of the Imperial City, the killer Kurome, who kills unforgivable criminals to protect the people. The Teigu, March of the Dead, Yatsufusa."

Kurome lowered her head, as if she wasn't talking about herself, perhaps because she had already grown used to it.

"Also, the genius scientist of the Imperial Capital, Dr. Stylish, with the Teigu, God's Hand, The Perfect One."

Dr. Stylish, dressed in a white coat, bowed to the emperor. "Oh, it's such an honor that I can meet His Majesty the Emperor!"

"There is also Bols, a soldier from the Firetroopers who made great contributions to the empire."

The tall man wearing a mask knelt on his knees and said in a shy voice as if he was suffering from stage fright. "My Teigu is Summon from Hell, Rubicante, Your Majesty."

"Next are the masters of the Imperial Fist Temple who have fought against Teigu users before: the Four Rakshasa Demons!"

Honest pointed at four men and women of various shapes. These executioners from the Imperial Fist Temple were specially recruited by Honest to kill ministers who opposed him. However, the empire was almost over now, and these four executioners had no use anymore. They were just to delay more time for him to finally collect the property of the Imperial Capital.

"My name is Your Majesty, Tsubaki."

"My name is Your Majesty, Suzuka."

"My name is Your Majesty, Zank."

"My name is Your Majesty, Ma Head."

"Finally, there is my son, the Space Teigu Shangri-La's user, Syura."

The young man with a hideous scar on his face, who looked very arrogant and unruly at first glance, bowed slightly. "Hahaha, please rest assured, Your Majesty, as the son of my father Honest, I will devote myself to Your Majesty and lead these masters to defeat those who resist the empire. Kill all and leave no one alive."

Honest opened his arms and said loudly with a righteous look. "Yes, we do everything for the people of the empire, Your Majesty."

The young emperor nodded excitedly. "As expected of Minister Honest, it is an honor for the empire to have such a loyal minister like you."

Honest bowed. "This is what we should do. Then, Your Majesty, I will go on my mission now."

The young emperor nodded. "Well, Minister Honest, you are not in good health, please don't work too hard."

Honest turned around with a face full of pride, pretending it was because the emperor cared about him, but in truth, it was because he was pleased that the emperor was completely his puppet.

In the secret passage in the palace that only Honest knew.

"Hahaha, you are such a foolish young emperor. My son, Syura, I will trouble you to try and stop the collapse of the empire so I can transport all the wealth of the Imperial Capital out."

Honest patted Syura on the shoulder and laughed wildly.

Syura grinned and licked his lips bloodthirstily. "Don't worry, father, in my opinion, the so-called 'God of Justice' is nothing more than that. I have entered the city of Jerok many times and have not been found."

"Gods are nothing special, and I have collected a lot of information."

"I know who their three strongest people are. They just have something similar to Teigu, something that shines like a glass ball."

"They must have found the materials for manufacturing the 'Teigu' that the empire once lost, and they are pretending to be messengers of the gods."

"As long as we kill those three people and then assassinate that god, it will be no problem at all, hahaha."

Syura laughed loudly at the thought of this. He had seen the so-called 'god incarnation' little girl from afar. In his opinion, whether it was using the guise of the mysterious celestial phenomenon to cause chaos, it was just a Teigu user from some corner.

Although she looked very mysterious, she felt similar to Esdeath and Budo.

Who was he? He was the only Space Teigu user. There were many opportunities for assassination. Even if given enough preparation time, Esdeath and General Budo were all possible targets.

Honest was pleased. "I feel relieved to have a son like you. I will leave everything to you. Now I will secretly remove all the treasures and imperial tools from the Imperial Capital's treasury."

This foolish son, I'll just let you test that 'God of Justice'. If he dies, it is no great loss. If my son really kills the 'god', then he can continue to be my Imperial Minister.

"Then I'll leave now, father."

Syura activated his pocket watch-shaped Teigu Shangri-La, disappearing in front of Honest in an instant.

Honest walked towards the imperial treasure house at the end of the secret passage with his hands behind his back.

Soon, the formation of the 'Teigu User Team' in the Imperial Capital was completed. As the captain, Syura led four Teigu users and four Imperial Fist Temple masters, who were comparable to the Teigu users, straight to the three assassination targets.

Meanwhile, in Jerok on the other side.

Furina received the message from Celestia and learned that the Imperial Capital had formed a team of 'Teigu Users' to assassinate Clorinde and Leosley. It also included all the location information of the 'Teigu Squad'.

The supreme Lord Celestia was so powerful that nothing could be hidden in either Teyvat or this world.

Furina quickly called over the seven people from the 'Shadow Chasing Court', who had just been formed from the 'Night Raid Team'.

When the seven people saw Furina, they quickly knelt on one knee.

Najenda: "Lady Furina, do you have a task for us to handle?"

Although the 'Shadow Chasing Court' had just been established, it was now involved in a devastating occupation with the empire, and it was definitely necessary for them to take action against the empire's Teigu users.

As far as she knew, there were no fewer than a thousand Teigu users who had become emperors. There were a total of forty-eight Imperial Tools. Even though many had been lost over the past thousand years, the empire still controlled the largest number of Imperial Tools.

Furina imitated the way Lord Celestia held a meeting in her room before and snapped her fingers. A water mirror appeared in front of them. The picture Takumi sent to her appeared in the water mirror.

The picture shown in the water mirror depicted the squad heading towards the city that the 'God of Justice' had controlled. They talked about assassinating all the city managers if they couldn't get to a city.

When Akame saw the girl who looked very similar to herself in the water mirror, her expression changed instantly, and her voice trembled slightly.
