Back at the Nigh Raid Base...
"That mission was done rather quickly. Thanks to your help, I didn't know you can actually use a different Imperial Arms. Let alone Mine's Imperial Arms that took her years to master," Akame said to Takashi as they both inside the base building.
"You didn't see me wield your Imperial Arms right at your neck to kill you?" Takashi replied with furrowed eyes, 'She really is clueless sometimes, even though she is an amazing swordswoman and assassin, the way she killed off those Super Soldiers without any fear in her eyes showed how vicious, focused, and merciless she can become,' Takashi took off his bloody jacket.
"Oh yeah, you are right, but Mine's Imperial Arms different from mine and yet you were able to wield it, can you wield any kind of Imperial Arms?" Akame asked with interest in her eyes, for once her emotionless face was slowly changing to a face of wonderment and curiousness.
"I can't tell you everything. Assassins Code," Takashi head pats Akame in a brotherly way. Akame blushes and enjoys the head pat.
"You were also able to fire Mine's Imperial Arms with more accuracy than her," Akame cutely winked one eye at Mine.
"What that is not true!" Mine is livid and stomps her little feet.
"It is kind of true. My bro really showed you who was the real 'genius'," Tatsumi said with a sly grin.
"It's not true! Your brother is a freak! Just like you! Gosh! I mean really who in the hell you even think you are!?" Mine points at Takashi and runs her mouth at him, her pinks eyes were twitching with anger. She hated that Takashi had used her own weapon and actually fired it more perfectly than her and he managed to eliminate the target with just one shot. He did this all in one day while it took years for Mine to use Pumpkin and fire ranged shots, she just so happened to miss one day while Takashi didn't.
"Whats that the matter? I never shoot to miss," Takashi teased Mine and flicks her nose. He then walks away to get some rest.
"WHY YOU!" Mine screams and clenches her fist.
"Wait Takahsi shouldn't we report to the Boss?" Akame said while staring him down.
"What is there to report? The Prime Ministers cousin is dead. Nothing more. Nothing less. Plus she is not my boss. I don't report to anyone, and she isn't even here. There is another mission tomorrow, you should worry about getting some rest," Takashi replied as he gripped his forearms some black and red draconic scales were forming around his skin, the more he used Ryuyami the more his muscles got sore, his stamina would be drained, and the more draconic he would become. He devoured so many souls than these past days that his bloodlust was growing more powerful by the second, he had to control his Primordial Dragon powers or his own dragon powers would eventually control him instead and take over his body. He would become a primal dragon beast who sought out destruction. Which he still did, but all of his destruction was pinpointed towards the Empire after what they did to Ieysau and so many other lives, how the Empire treated everyone like livestock and trash.
"What exactly did you do to the Prime Ministers cousin when you stayed behind?" Tatsumi asked with suspicion in his voice. He still was a little pissed off that his own brother knocked him out and punched him in the stomach. The sense of betrayal was clear.
"None of your business," Takashi walks past Tatsumi and pushes him aside with his shoulders, Tatsumi body almost falls to the floor from how strong Takashi was.
"Before you go," Akame rushes over to Takashi and does her inspections around his body to see if he was injured, she lifts up his shirt and starts moving around his body in a circle and starts poking his abs and chest and biceps to see if anything hurt. There wasn't a single scratch found on Takashi's godly body. He let Akame do her thing, only cause she didn't pose a threat, plus they were getting kind of along better. Kind of like a brotherly and sisterly relationship.
"Good I am glad that you are safe," Akame has lip smile, her cheeks got even redder when she started to remember that she had kissed Takashi on the cheeks back in tarven when Mine pushed Tasumi onto her and she moved and kissed Takashi on the cheeks. She didn't know what feelings and emotions were entering her young fearsome body, but she wanted to do everything she can to protect Takashi and her comrades in Night Raid. Even though Takashi wasn't part of Night Raid he actually fought by Akame's side, so anyone who fights with her is someone she respects. Especially someone as powerful as Takashi. However even though her feelings were growing for Takashi, she wanted to ask him many questions and wanted to know who really was Takashi and how he got all of his powers.
Takashi goes to his room which was the biggest in the Night Raid base and goes to sleep. He thinks about the fight with super soldiers, how he easily murdered them. However, he could see how lifeless they look, how they were being used and manipulated by the Empire and Prime Minister. They looked mindless zombies had actually had some strength, but none of them were stronger than Takashi who made easy work of them by ripping out and crushing their hearts in his powerful palms.
Was the Prime Minister Honest using these hopeless lost souls to form super soldiers who could wield Teigu in a matter of days? Or was it something more sinister that fat corrupt bastard was planning?
Takashi was thinking about all of this as he cleaned the blade of Ryuyami. He wiped out all off the filthy blood from his dragon-red blade which was always glowing like heated-steel, the fierce weapon was hot as volcano lava in its dormant stage, but when unleashed to a higher cultivation level Takashi was able to burn the souls of any living being, it didn't matter how big or small the opponent was, how weak or powerful they were, at the end all would be consumed by Ryuyami's hellish Dark Dragon Flames.
Takashi raised his hands towards the sky and looks up at the roof of the Night Raid base. "This world will be mine," He clenches his fist, "I will make all of them pay," He says aloud as he thinks about all the corrupted monsters who were still alive, the Prime Ministers Cosuion was only one of the many vile bastards he plagues this world with evil and vileness. How they destroy everything and everyone who opposes, they thought they were gods. Takashi would show them all that they are false gods and silence them all. He closes his eyes, he didn't even take a shower as his whole was covered in the blood of the people he slaughtered. He didn't care, Ryuyami had its fill for the day. It had devoured enough souls to kept it ignited and ready to kill. Just like Akame, he slept with his sword, an assassin must always be alert and ready to kill at any second and moment without any hesitation. He drifts into his slumber.
In the morning...
Takashi wakes up and sees Akame cutely cuddling with him, her head was softly asleep on his buff chest. She was holding her sheathed sword Murasame close to her petite chest and well-toned stomach.
"What are you doing here?" Takashi asked her.
Akame snuggles against Takashi chest even more, "I like sleeping with you" she says with a tired cute voice.
Takashi smells her rosy scent, she smelt amazing and vibrant, even for a woman who kills so much. Takashi enjoyed her scent, it was strangely intoxicating. He slowly gets up, as much as he wanted to savor this moment and strip her bare naked and ravage her body at this very moment, he knew there was a mission to do. Najenda still wasn't back at the base, so Akame had to lead everyone for the day. But Takashi thought otherwise, instead, he would that job for her. As strange as it seemed, with each day, Takashi was growing more closer with Akame, he actually wanted to protect her...Like he wanted to protect Sayo and Tatsumi. He wanted no else to die.
He was going to do everything it took to protect everyone who was dear to him, and Akame was dear to him... Strange how emotions work...
But this kind of emotion makes Takashi weaker, no. It made him stronger. He had something to fight rather than fighting for himself. He gets up and goes to the kitchen to cook Akame something.
Sayo sees Takashi leaving his room and sees Akame sleeping on his bed. Sayo gripped her chest and she gritted her teeth, tears almost form on her opal eyes. Sorrowed and sadness filled her face. The man she loved was slowly disappearing in front of her very eyes. He was different than before, and it was obvious that Takashi showed no love for Sayo.
Sayo couldn't bear to look anymore, after all this time when Takashi left for a mission she had been training to become an assassin like him. Every day she trained so she could be by Takashi's side and protect him as he protected her. She was done waiting. She was going to tell Takashi that she loved him once and for all. All of her emotions will be set free... Poor girl... Poor soul... The truth always hurts.
