Actually, the moment she fired the shot, Mine regretted it.
Lin Yi is not like Leone and the others. Leone and the rest are all powerful Imperial Arms users. These trivial matters can't harm them.
But Lin Yi, if he really got hurt by her, she would regret it immensely.
In reality, Lin Yi just slightly turned his head, and the light grazed past his cheek, easily dodging it.
"You really are a disobedient child."
"I'm not a child."
Mine retorted angrily, but she couldn't break free from Lin Yi's grasp.
Lin Yi smirked, lifted Mine sideways onto his lap, and slapped her buttocks hard.
"Ahhhh!"
"I'm going to kill you, Lin Yi!"
Mine's angry shout echoed throughout the night raid base.
Leone, as usual, sipped his wine on the side.
Bulat seemed as if he didn't hear, wearing an apron and processing the ingredients. The one with red eyes wearing a black sailor suit, swaying the ponytail behind her head, holding snacks similar to fries, stuffing her mouth like a hamster.
No one wanted to respond to Mine's cry for help.
"The vitality of the young, how wonderful," Leone remarked.
Lin Yi was initially really planning to discipline this proud young lady. After slapping her buttocks a few times, which felt surprisingly soft and smooth, he couldn't help but touch it subconsciously.
Mine's face turned as red as an apple in an instant, steam exaggeratedly rising from her head as she struggled fiercely.
Lin Yi also felt that he might have gone too far and quickly let go of her.
However, the moment he let go, it seemed like his belt hooked onto one of her buttons. There was a rip, and suddenly she was exposed.
Mine, now left in only her underwear, screamed, "Ah, bastard!" and dashed into her room.
Lin Yi scratched his cheek, looking at the familiar Leone for help.
Leone just pursed his lips, appearing helpless.
"Lin Yi, go to hell!"
Mine, having changed into a new outfit, kicked open her room door, holding the Pumpkin and charged out, and this time she wasn't joking around.
Lin Yi clearly saw murderous intent in her eyes.
"Boom!"
A beam of light lit up the sky, the Pumpkin firing at full power.
Lin Yi could only keep dodging.
"Do we really not need to intervene?"
The red-eyed girl, who had been eating and watching the show the whole time, casually asked. Leone didn't even respond because Bulat had already walked in with barbecued meat.
The feast began.
Only Lin Yi and Mine were still causing a ruckus outside the Night Raid base.
"Enough, Mine."
Eventually, Mine, who was still firing, was stopped by Najenda, who grabbed her head.
Lin Yi finally met the boss of Night Raid, Najenda, dressed in a military uniform, with an exaggerated green mechanical arm on her right.
As Lin Yi sized her up, Najenda was also scrutinizing him.
Lin Yi was familiar with Najenda, originally a comrade of Esdeath, but because she couldn't accept the decay of the Empire, she chose to betray it.
She joined the Revolutionary Army and founded Night Raid.
"You must be Najenda. I've heard a lot about you," Lin Yi greeted.
"Do you know me?"
Najenda raised an eyebrow. The stories about her were at least a decade old. Yet Lin Yi looked quite young.
"So so," Lin Yi didn't elaborate further.
"Since you chose to join Night Raid, I believe you already know our goals and philosophy. I won't go into details. I trust Leone's judgment, so..." Najenda paused and extended her right hand to Lin Yi, "Welcome to Night Raid."
"Thank you."
Lin Yi shook hands with her. Mine, standing next to her, still glared resentfully at Lin Yi, gritting her teeth.
Under Najenda's guidance, the three of them entered the Night Raid base. The banquet had just begun.
Lin Yi also noticed Akame's exaggerated appetite.
A chicken leg, bigger than her body, was devoured cleanly by her.
"Ah, good wine should not be wasted." Leone was already tipsy and said blissfully, "Thanks to Lin Yi, we can take a few days off."
"The Earl's family was originally our target."
"Long live the holidays."
During the meal, Mine let go of her grudge. If someone is a comrade, they can be trusted with their life, so small issues shouldn't matter.
"One day, we will erase all the decay of the Empire."
Mine also had quite a bit to drink, but her alcohol tolerance was not good. After two glasses of beer, she was already slurring her words.
"In that case, we seem like vigilante killers," Lin Yi jokes.
"Hahaha…"
Everyone laughed heartily.
"Lin Yi, no matter why we do what we do, in the eyes of others, our actions ultimately result in killing," Najenda said seriously.
Lin Yi just smiled casually. He knew what Najenda meant. Those with blood on their hands would eventually meet a bad end without distinguishing good from bad.
But Lin Yi didn't see it that way.
He had experienced many worlds. When it comes to causing deaths, even Esdeath or the minister of the capital might not have as many as him.
Simply to conquer the Attack on Titan world, he used the power of the founding Titan, destroying most of the countries and killing millions.
Whether it's justice or not is not key, but it depends on what your actions ultimately achieve.
Lin Yi still agreed with Night Raid's philosophy, but he did not recognize the so-called Revolutionary Army.
A dragon slayer becomes the dragon.
He wanted to use Night Raid to remove the decay of the capital and those ministers and then take their place.
After the banquet, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
However, Mine looked a bit strange. After rushing back to her room, she angrily covered her head with a blanket and kept punching her pillow, as if venting her anger at Lin Yi.
Everyone rested for two days. During this time, Lin Yi got to know everyone better.
When reading the original story, each character seemed very unique. Now, after living with them day-to-day, Lin Yi truly felt their uniqueness.
"Sheele, Mine, Leone, Akame, Esdeath... Ah, there's a long way to go," Lin Yi sighed.
During these two days, he and Mine were still bickering, like a couple who always argues. Najenda always kept a low profile and rarely appeared.
Akame was always cold and distant, and they couldn't even chat.
Leone always acted like a big sister, taking care of everyone.
He did have a good relationship with Sheele.
