Within the capital, a fat man wearing fine clothes and a turban overlooks the city and the peasants within it
Pig:...Livestock. Livestock. Livestock! What great expressions on all of them... Damn pigs are fit only to exploit... Alcohol bought with the tax money of the citizens sure is delicious. Perhaps I'll pocket a little more starting next month
This is the Head of Public Finance, Gebaze
Maid:Master, It is time for your massage
Gebaze:Ohhhhh! Today I'll have the refreshing full-body massage course!
As the maid approaches she pulls some kind of stick out of her mouth and stabs him in the side of the neck with it, causing him to slump over as she cancels her disguise and returns to being Chelsea
Chelsea:The job is done. Just what kind of massage course did he want anyways...
Suddenly Chelsea hears rapid footsteps closing in
Chelsea:Sounds from the first floor?!
A moment later Wave and Kurome burst through the doors
Wave:We're the Jagers! We have information that Night Raid is coming to this house! Due to this being an emergency, we're entering!
Hearing no response as they approach, Kurome speaks up
Kurome:Wave... we were too late
The only thing in the room with them is the corpse and a couple of cats
Later back at Night Raid's base, Chelsea is telling everybody about what went down
Chelsea:And so, it was apparently a trap. That was close
Mine:For you to be safe in that situation, you sure are tough
Chelsea:Well the guy owned two or three pet cats, I pulled through by transforming into one
Mine:...If it was me, it would've been difficult getting out. It's infuriating to say, but that Teigu's rather useful
Chelsea:A pretty difficult situation for someone whose face is known like you, Mine. You can just leave it all up to me from now on
Mine:Chelsea...
Chelsea:So watch over the hideout while I'm gone, substitute
Mine, who'd momentarily felt a bond between them and like Chelsea might actually be likable, immediately flips back to hatred as she starts chasing her around the room
Mine:You're so insulting to your comrades!! As a person, I can't forgive you!!
Calin:Mine can dish it out, but can't take it
Akame:Well, with this incident... The Jagers seem to be aiming solely for us now. It'll be bad if this continues
Leone:They exterminated all of the new species of danger beasts, so the only thing remaining for them to get rid of is Night Raid. I guess we'll have to give them Calin, who was vacationing on an island in the south, and have them leave us alone
Calin:Oh how horrible, I guess that means I'll have to run off with Esdeath then and leave you behind
Leone:...okay fine I take it back
Lubbock:Being on a southern island alone with a beautiful woman... It's not like I'm really jealous or anything, but then why not just desert her? It's her after all, it's not like anyone's jealous. No. Really.
Leone:Wipe your tears Lubbock
This is when Najenda returns from her bath
Najenda:She's been tenacious for as long as I've known her. She probably would've gotten back on her own power if you had left her. So it's better to clear up all debts. And be able to use your full strength to fight her when you meet her as an enemy
Calin:No need to worry there, Esdeath's my fight, when we finally battle, I'll win, although that comment does make me wanna ask, how old are you boss?
Najenda:I'm in my mid-twenties, Esdeath is younger though
Calin:No shit? Huh, I always just figured you looked young
Najenda has to think about that comment for a moment but decides to take it as a compliment
Najenda:We're having an important meeting after we eat! Don't drink too much everyone
Akame:It's rude to talk about a woman's age Calin
Calin:This coming from the one commenting on Leone's weight?
Akame:Hm? What're you talking about?
