akame ga kill (shadow of the empire)

part 22

The path of peace was the next mission he had left the small village 2 days ago to meet up with the ministers Four Rakshasa Demons. Out of all the ministers lackey's Revan despise the most of all he had to admit they were tools resourceful and Powerful tools but the means in which they got things done was slightly inhuman. As Reven walked through the town in normal civilian clothes he was still haunted by Chelsea death. He kept on trying to tell himself he had warned her to leave and not pursue her mission but in a way he knew he could have saved her. But he ultimately dismissed it if he had saved her then he would have been revealed and everything had been fighting for up and until this time would have been for nothing. It would be another day before his sister and the rest of the Jaeger's showed up... well what was left of the Jaegers at any rate. And if he knew night raid they would be close behind if what Bols I told him was true the minister was going to make his move to take him out of the picture. If he was going to have to fight it would be on his terms heading to the ruins beyond the town he decide to set up camp temporarily if he could stay out of sight and out of mind it would be completely easier in the long run. Luckily on his part it was easier to be safe than sorry he packed a bag filled with extra clothes food and explosives. What was strange though after Chelsea had been killed his blade instead of being the sickly green blade vidiot Focus to create and it reverted back to green but only for a day before it turned completely dark blue. He had surmise that perhaps the end of his journey was near perhaps the end was finally coming the war and all the hardships would be over sooner rather than later. In the meantime he had noticed people from the Revolutionary Army moving towards the graveyard perhaps it would be in his best interest to keep an eye on them for the time being. Revan couldn't shake the feeling that he was being watched. For the time being he chose to ignore it unless he truly was forced to deal with it.

Back at the path of Peace headquarters the four beasts talk among themselves.

Ibera- the minister thinks he's going to be a problem soon.

Mez- he seems to keep to himself out of sight and out of mind I lost track of him earlier this morning.

Ster- you know if he finds out that The Minister's putting up wanted posters of him back in the Empire this entire situation could turn ugly fast.

Suzuka- I have a very strong suspicion he knows exactly what's going on that's why he staying out of sight.

The other three turn to her.

Suzuka- think about it he didn't get to his position by simply taking everything for granted he's a constant platter a constant strategist. Granted I'm very certain he'll show back up again but for his own reasons it would be marvelous to fight him.

As she spoke she seem to smile in a very Wicked way.

Ibera- the jeagers will be here in a couple of days I'm certain the ministers had to down orders to a few of them to go after Revan let's let them have their fun.

Suzuka- if the reports on Revan are true he's probably in the ruins just beyond the city.

The four beasts turn their heads to look outside the window the Old City built by a lost tribe of people who have long since been forgotten. They couldn't help but feel excited at the chance of taking out the head of Imperial intelligence. Unbeknownst to them another enemy was coming night raid was going to be on their doorstep soon enough.

50 miles outside the city the Jaegers push on towards their destination. Wave and Kurome didn't look worse for wear. Run and Seryu looked about as upbeat as they always did. But Esdeath was still thinking about her orders for the minister she would follow the orders but she was hesitant. It was a strange feeling for her she had had no problem striking down Najenda when she found out she was defecting from the Empire and she had been a friend a comrade for years but Revan why did the minister want him dead? The minister had also ordered that once he was dead to retrieve his Imperial arms and to bring it before him along with his mask.
