(Harukin's POV)
- Akame ga Kill World -
Training grounds where the members of Night Raid's honed their skills in assassination, I was with Tatsumi doing push ups together with some girls sitting behind us.
"Sun, what's the purpose of this training? Aren't we going to meet up with our companions in the east?" Tatsumi asked me.
He's doing a push up with two hands while I'm using only one index finger.
Behind me is a large boulder with Akame, Aqua, Chelsea and Sheele sitting on top.
On Tatsumi's side, Mine was sitting on his back alone.
"Tatsumi, since my new founded country Soviet Yunyun has become allied with the revolutionary army, we're going to help with their assassination jobs in cleaning up the rotten people in the Empire."
"As for our companions, don't worry about them. They're travelling towards here and going to meet with us soon. It just that Maple always diverted somewhere else and gets lost on her path, making others to stop and go look for her."
I answered.
"Hahaha--Wait! When did you become a leader of a country?! Few days when we met with your group, you guys are just traveler just like us."
"Hahaha! It's a long story. I actually went to North to trade my goods so that I'll have the money to pay your rewards." I lied as naturally as I breathed.
I actually went there to meet Esdeath for the quest.
"When Esdeath tried to conquer the country and accidentally met up with me. After I defeated her, a lot of things happened and became the leader of the country."
"So that's why you disappeared all of sudden at that time. Do you know that after you went somewhere, Maple always dragged us to weird places, making us getting lost on our path."
"Well... I apologize on her behalf but she's just like that. You have to be always keeping eye on her or else she'll get lost without you noticing as she wanders around."
"Hahaha! Even though she's like that, we're having fun travelling with her. Sayo seems like her, wanting to be friends with her. Just like you, she always does a lot of things that make us surprise."
"Hahaha! You said it, Tatsumi!" I laughed.
"Grrrrr..."
"Huh?"
We saw Mine growling behind Tatsumi, sitting on his back with angry expression.
"What's wrong, Mine?" Tatsumi asked her.
Mine pointed at me
"You're asking me that? Look! Sun is only using one finger with a large boulder and four person behind his back."
Then she pointed at Tatsumi,
"While I'm the only sitting behind you and you didn't even made a quarter of his push ups with your two hands!"
"It making me look that I'm heavier than a boulder and four person combined." she complained.
"Hey! Don't compare me with Sun! I don't even if that guy is human or a monster that disguising as a human." Tatsumi responded.
"I'm a human, you know?"
But only half.
The reason that Mine's sitting on top of him is that I told her to help with Tatsumi's training in exchange that I returned back her imperial arm 'Pumpkin'.
I said the same with Sheele and Akame.
Chelsea and Aqua just volunteered for me because it looks fun for them.
"Sun! Can you return back our Imperial Arms already? We need them on our assassination job later."
"Okay, I'll give them back later after our training."
"How is it, Tatsumi? I can be a good wingman too, right?" I whispered at Tatsumi.
"What are you talking about, Sun?"
Suddenly,
"Yoh! Sun, Tatsumi. How was training?"
Bulat appeared together with Susanno, Lubbock, Leone and Najenda.
"It's good and I felt warm up. We're now ready to go with a mission with you guys."
"Sun, can you return back there imperial arm? There's a emergency assignment right now and we need them."
"Sure, but can I have the Incursio and Crosstail? Of course, not for free. In exchange, I'll offer you guys another three imperial arms and money."
"You know, Sun? I rather passed down my Imperial Arm to someone worthy in my eyes than selling or trading it to someone."
"Wow! That sounds cool, Bulat-san. Here..."
I took out the Imperial Arm Incursio from my dimensional storage then threw it towards Bulat.
Bulat caught it then checked it if it's real.
"If you have time, can you train Tatsumi? He might die early if he don't." I requested.
"Sure." he gave me a thumbs up.
I also thumbs up to him while doing one finger push up.
"Me too, I also want to pass down my Imperial Arm to someone worthy." Lubbock spoke.
Looks like he got inspired by Bulat.
"Wait a minute."
I stopped and placed down the large boulder from my back.
Then I stood up, walking towards Lubbock.
"What's wrong?" Lubbock asked.
I wrapped my arm around his shoulders then whispered,
"Then how about this, Lubbock. I heard there's an Imperial Arm called 'Spectator' that can read your opponent's mind and predict their next move. I'm going to find it and give it to you in exchange with your Crosstail. Do you want it?"
"Sorry, still... I don't want to--"
"It has an ability to see through a woman's clothes."
"Tell me more!" Lubbock immediately said with full of interest.
"It's one of Spectator's ability called Clearsight. The ability to look through solid objects like clothings. If you want, you can even see what beyond in their underwear without you needing peak at them in the bathroom."
Suddenly, Lubbock's nose was bleeding.
"It still has other abilities that you can use in the battle. How about it?"
Lubbock wiped his bleeding nose,
"What if I can't use that Imperial Arm?"
"Don't worry, I'm a Magic Item Crafter. I can tamper the Imperial Arm for you so that it won't reject you."
"Still..."
"Not enough? Fine, I give you the other three imperial arms I have as an additional trade. Najenda might like it if you give it to her as a gift."
"Uuuugh... Okay, deal!" Lubbock gave me a thumbs up with his nose continued to bleed."
I also gave him a thumbs up,
"Thanks for patronage. I'll bring the items to you in three days so I can tamper it for you."
Bulat held his head,
"What happened with the passing down of imperial arm to someone worthy?"
"I can feel that these two are up to something no good." Leone spoke, looking at us with squinted eyes.
"Sun, Tatsumi. Since Mine, Sheele, Bulat and Leone will be on emergency assignment, I request the two of you as part of alliance to help with the assassination on another request." Najenda spoke while smoking cigarette.
"Who are the targets?" I asked.
She glanced at Leone and said,
"Leone... Tell me about the request we received a few days ago."
"The targets are Ogre of the Capital Guards, and an oil merchant named Gamal."
"What the client told me was that Ogre had accepting bribes from Gamal."
"Everytime Gamal commits a crime, Ogre will frame someone to take the fall for him."
"Her fiance was framed for one of his crimes and was sentenced to death."
"Her fiance heard the two target talking to each other while in his cell so before his execution, he sent her a letter so she would know all this."
"That why, she begging me to clear her regret from her heart."
"After that, I accepted her request to send them both screaming to hell."
Leone took out a large bag of money from behind her then showed it to us.
"This is the payment for the job."
"That person saved up this much money?" Tatsumi spoke.
"I caught the scent of venereal disease from her... So she must have been selling her body to earn all of that."
Tatsumi was really shock,
"That's..."
"Did you check out her story?" Najenda asked.
"They're guilty. I observed them for a time from the attic of the merchant's shop."
...
"Okay. Night Raid will accept this request. We will deliver divine punishment upon the heads of this heinous monsters. And send them to hereafter." Najenda announced.
"Taking out Jamal will be simple, but Ogre will be a formidable opponent."
"Ogre the demon. He is called 'The Demon' because his skill with the sword makes him an object of terror to the criminals of the capital."
"Okay then, Tatsumi and I will deal with Ogre while you guys deal with Jamal." I spoke confidently.
"I leave it to the two of you then." Najenda lit up another cigarette.
"I'll go and watch them." Chelsea spoke, jumping down from the large boulder.
Glancing at Aqua,
"Aqua, stay here with the others for now."
"Yeah, good luck."
"Don't cause any trouble, okay?*
"I'm not a child!" she retorted.
"Tatsumi, let's go!" I turned around, going back to our to prepare myself for the mission.
Mine move out from Tatsumi's back.
"Okay..." Tatsumi responded, standing up.
He followed after me together with Chelsea.
After that, I returned back their Imperial Arms except Lubbock's Crosstail which is now my possession.
