[Kyoroch Cathedral]
Bolic was playing shogi with Run. Esdeath was with the Mastema bearer, without her cap. Honest's spy smiled confidently as he moved one of his pieces.

Bolic: General, please stand guard for just two more weeks.
Run: Two weeks, huh...? - He asks, moving a piece on the board.
Esdeath: The founding day of the religion will be in two weeks, right? There should be a grand festival, the whole city will be involved.
Bolic: Yes, the groundwork has been laid.
The man examines the shogi board for almost a minute before moving one of his pieces.
Bolic: I'll have the head priest killed... and turned into a true spirit. - With his crooked smile widening, he throws one last shogi piece - And then, in front of everyone gathered... I will declare myself the new chief priest.
Run lowers his head to better analyze the board.
[End of soundtrack]
Run: You defeated me.
Bolic: HAHAHA! - He laughs loudly, crossing his arms - You have natural talent, you just lack experience. Train a little more and I'm sure you'll be a pro in no time!
A little while later, the blue-haired woman and the blond were walking a little near some columns.
Esdeath: I appreciate you entertaining him with shogi. - She says to her subordinate happily, without looking at him.
Run: A small task like this is nothing. - He declares modestly.
Esdeath's smile disappears and gives way to a serious, thoughtful face.
Esdeath: Najenda must have realized that her time limit is running out. They'll be here soon.
Run looks serious as his captain equips her cap.
Esdeath: Let's tighten the security.
[Night Raid Hideout; Same time]
Everyone had just finished gorging themselves on a delicious feast prepared by Susanoo. They had also planned Bolic's assassination to perfection. The team was determined.
Tatsumi, Akame, and Leone were in the living room. The brunette and the blonde were watching the swordswoman build a miniature ship.

Tatsumi: Wow, Akame... I didn't know you could do that. - He comments, impressed.
Akame: A comrade of mine taught me. -She explains, still focused on her little work.
Leone: You didn't know? - She asks Tatsumi, sitting nonchalantly on a chair -She usually does that in her room.
