3rd Person POV:

Suzuka: I beg of you... Allow your lowly Suzuka in this time of war, by your order, to be the messenger between the Minister and General.

Esdeath: ... You don't hesitate to show your face around me when you desire something... I can't help but respect that kind of moxie and spunk. Do whatever you want.

Suzuka: Yes, ma'am. Well then... I shall start by licking your boots clean~ !!

Esdeath: No need. If the person you wish to lick allows you to lick them, right from the very start, it kind of defeats the whole purpose.

Suzuka: 'Neglect !! By meeting her lordship here, I was hoping to get a good beating today... But this neglect... Now this is truly sadistic... It's so marvelous~...'



Your POV:

'Uhhh... I just felt cold sweat going down my back...'

Najenda: Just a few more hours, and the assault on the Imperial Capital will commence. Upon discovery of their ice cavalry, our plans have slightly changed... So listen carefully.

Leone: An army of ice... Esdeath really could fight an entire war on her own...

"And nothing would make her more extatic than that, for sure... And since they probably purposefully let us know of that trump card of their..."

Najenda: For starters, she's not someone we can simply ignore and push to the side. Akame, Leone and Tao will both act according to the plan thus far, and that's to infiltrate the Imperial palace. I will join the General offensive and lead the Teigu troops. Tatsumi, you'll be coming with me.

Tatsumi: So I'll be out and in the open ?

Najenda: Esdeath's overwhelming power is beyond our imagination. If she attacks us and you're not around, there will be no hope of stopping her. I know this will put an even greater burden on you three...

"Send the warriors to the front lines, and the assassins to infiltrate enemy territory. I don't see how that would be considered a bad decision."

Akame: No one's going to have it easy out there ! We'll be fine !

Leone: Well, if my best friend and future boyfriend are saying that, I guess I'll have to give it my all too.

"... i'm sorry, what was that last part ? I don't remember saying anything about... H- hey, back off ! Stop ! CONSENT IS NOT INCLUDED !! AAAAAAAAHH !!"

Najenda: Leone, please...

Leone: Fine, fine, geez...

Najenda: Right ! Then it's time to go over Night Raid's final targets !!


*The prime Minister, Honest ! With an insatiable desire for political power, he is the very root of all the evil that has corrupted this country.*


*General Esdeath ! A demon who delights in nothing but war, sowing the seeds of revolt. A being who cannot exist in times of peace.*


*Koukei, Ministry of military affairs. Diverting munitions and arms through illegal channels for his own private personal profit. Conspired with the Prime Minister to slander generals that opposed him, then had them found guilty of crimes they did not commit.*
