Location, Imperial Capital.

Red Pupil and his party returned to the imperial capital and began to recuperate.

After being seriously injured, Boni returned to the imperial capital ahead of schedule to receive treatment and examinations. Although Tsukushi was shot in the shoulder, fortunately, the injury was not serious, and as long as he concentrated on treatment and recovered, he recovered quickly.

After returning, the state of mind of the two people, Akatomi and Nahasiu, also changed. In addition to Green's death, there was also the burning of Whitehorse.

Needless to say, Nahaxiu and the people of Whitehorse Town don't have much to do with each other. The main reason for the change in mood is that the methods used by the empire are too terrifying.

However, Nahasiu still does not intend to betray the empire, he intends to rely on his own strength to try to change the country. So the day after returning to the imperial capital, Nahaxiu went to find Gozzi.

"You're going to break away from the assassination force and join General Bud's army?" asked Gozzi, frowning.

"Yes, and hopefully, father, you can approve it. Nahasiu said.

"Nahasiu, you should know that I can't possibly agree to this. Now the assassination team needs your help, after all, ......

"Father, and I hope you can approve it." Nahasiu interrupted Gozzi and pleaded again.

"......"

Gozqi looked at Nahasiu's face, and Nahasiu's face was calm and determined at this time. At the same time, it can be seen that he has made up his mind.

"Can you give me a reason?"

"I...... I want to change the country with my own hands. Nahasiu said.

"......"

Gozzi was silent, but at the same time felt a hint of relief. At least Nahasiu didn't intend to betray the Empire, but intended to serve the Empire in a different way. In that case, it doesn't matter much even if you say yes.

"Okay, I'll explain this to General Bude. As for the outcome, it's not for me to decide. Gozzi finally agreed.

"Thank you, father!" Nahasiu said.

Soon, General Bud agreed to Gozzi's request. So Nahaxiu broke away from the Imperial Assassination Force and joined the command of General Bud and began his own path to save the country.

———

after Nahaxiu joined the Bude Army, the entire assassination force was left with only five people: Red Hitomi, Black Hitomi, Tsukushi, Natara and Poni. And Tsukushi and Poni still need to recuperate, so there are only three people left who can carry out the mission now.

"Although our companions are still recuperating from their injuries, time waits for no one, so we have to work alone. Gozzi said, looking at the three people in front of him.

"Therefore, this mission can only be completed separately, and I have other tasks on my shoulders as well. Red Hitomi, you go and destroy this target. Gozzi pulled out Najeta's picture and handed it to Red Hitomi.

"Najeta, like last time, I want you to assassinate the rebel general. Because you have experience in defeating Suzaku, I'll leave it to you. "

And ...... Same as last time?!" Gozqi's words made Red Hitomi can't help but recall the last battle on White Horse Mountain.

"It's enough to kill this person. Gozzi explained as he looked at the red pupil's expression.

“...... I know. "

Black Hitomi, you're in charge of dealing with spies from other races. The location of the other party's haunt is a bit troublesome, and there will be some dangerous kinds, so I'll leave it to you. In addition, take this opportunity to collect some excellent corpses for the eighth room. Gozzi said to the black pupils.

"Understood!" replied Hitomi.

"Natara, you go to this location to retrieve a handful of the Bird Shura that fell to the rebels. If the recovery is successful, you will be able to use this tool. "

Yes!" replied Natara.

The next day, the trio set off towards their different goals.

“...... I shouldn't continue to follow the oppressive empire, but what should I do? If the rebels are allowed to start a war, the war will also burn to the people......"

And I can't just walk away now...... I can't leave my black pupils behind...... Damn, can I just continue to do this kind of work so unwillingly?"

Red Hitomi thought as she rode her horse. At this time, she was confused again, she wanted to leave the empire, but she couldn't leave because of her sister Black Hitomi, and at the same time she didn't want to go to war.

For Red Hitomi, who has been brainwashed by imperial education since childhood, it is already good that he can be hesitant. After all, like Tsukushi and Poni, they have no doubts about the empire at all.

She needed someone who could guide her forward, and that person would soon meet Red Hitomi.

"Although the target Najeta is usually closely guarded by the rebels, there are exceptions. On recent weekends, she would go up the mountain alone to hunt dangerous species as part of her post-injury rehabilitation. "Red Hitomi came to the place where she connected with the Imperial Secret Detectives and listened to their report.

"Although the pass is guarded, it is not difficult to sneak in. I'm more worried that this may be a trap set by the other side. Akatomi said.

"We're also prepared for traps. The detective said.

After understanding the situation, Red Hitomi dived into the mountain and quickly advanced towards the goal. Although he was a little confused and uneasy, the current red pupil could only choose to adjust himself and continue to complete the task.

"There are no traps on the trail, and Najeta's guard seems to be only one man. Then, I'll be able to sneak attack......" Akatomi moved forward, thinking about what to do for a moment.

In the mountains, Najeta is smoking a cigarette and a tall man wearing a cape. The two of them were leisurely roasting the meat of the dangerous species they had just hunted.

"It's an Assassin from the Empire......" Najeta said as she suddenly took the cigarette from her mouth and stood up from her seat to face Akatomi.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time.

"Did you expect me to come?" Red Hitomi asked rhetorically.

The red pupil looked at Najeta in front of her, and realized that her entire right hand was a mechanical arm, except for the black blindfold she wore on her right eye. There was also what looked like a spear diagonally next to his arm.

"Wasn't there a lot of secret agents on the Empire's side before? "

......" Red Hitomi did not reply, but took off his coat and entered the combat state.

"But until recently we have access to the most credible information, but we don't know when the spy will be exposed. Because of you, the revolutionary army suffered a huge blow...... So I can only use my own life as bait to lure you over......" Najeta said to the man in the cloak next to her, seeing that the red pupil was ready for battle.

"Please, Brand. Hearing

Najeta's words, the man ripped off his cloak. Revealing the shiny head of the plane, he took a few steps forward and stopped in front of the red pupils.

"Brand, is it rumored that in the battle with the alien race, Brand, who harvested a hundred heads of the alien race with just one move?!" Red Hitomi thought to himself as he looked at the domineering man in front of him.

"You're not my target.

"If you're going to take down the boss, you're my goal. Brand stopped talking nonsense after he finished speaking.

Red Hitomi only heard a "click" sound, and a switch on Brand's back turned on, and a bizarre short sword flew out of it. Brand stood in front of him with a dagger in hand, and then took a deep breath.

"Haunted by evil spirits!!".
