Chelsea walked toward Bolic and sat sideways on the armrest of his chair.
At that moment, Suzuka and Sten walked straight in.
Hearing the footsteps, Chelsea immediately withdrew the thin needle.
Suzuka shifted her gaze, stood sideways facing Bolic, and said clearly,
"Bolic-sama, there are enemies invading."
"Ibara and Mez have already gone to deal with them."
Bolic clicked his tongue in annoyance.
Having his mood interrupted right when it was rising was really unpleasant.
But his life was still more important. Ordinary assassins would not dare to storm his residence.
Bolic faintly sensed a trace of danger.
He quickly straightened his clothes and stood up neatly.
"I understand."
Chelsea at the side looked at the two with some curiosity.
Based on the intelligence provided by Akame, she easily identified their identities.
Bolic turned his head to look at Chelsea beside him and let out a light sigh.
"What bad timing...."
Seeing that she was about to be dismissed, Chelsea did not bother caring about disgust anymore.
She stepped forward and hugged Bolic's arm, speaking coquettishly,
"Bolic-sama, I'm so scared~"
Feeling the soft touch on his arm, Bolic was momentarily tempted.
But in less than a second, he mercilessly pulled his arm away.
Bolic looked at Chelsea meaningfully, then said indifferently,
"Leave. The guards will safely send you back."
Chelsea was a bit surprised.
But she did not dare to continue entangling herself, lest something be noticed.
Chelsea withdrew resentfully and was then escorted out by the guards.
Bolic walked to a bookshelf at the side and pulled one of the books.
Then the bookshelf slowly split open from the middle.
While waiting, Bolic asked,
"What's the situation?"
Sten followed behind Bolic.
Suzuka did not move. After thinking for a moment, she answered,
"Two intruders. They should be Teigu users."
Bolic frowned and turned to step into the secret passage.
"Call Holimaca over to guard me. There's no need for all Four Rakshasa Demons to stay by my side."
Combat should be left to the Four Rakshasa Demons.
Holimaca was Bolic's true confidant.
If he died, Bolic would really be in trouble.
Suzuka nodded. That suited her intentions perfectly.
Guard duty was the most boring thing. Fighting was much more enjoyable.
"I understand."
...
In front of the mansion, the luxurious fountain collapsed with a crash.
Broken pipes continuously sprayed clear water.
A fierce battle was unfolding, and a large number of guards had been knocked to the ground.
Pale green afterimages kept flashing.
Leone's beast-like pupils kept moving. Her whole body was tense, and she thought in surprise,
"This guy is so fast!"
"To reach this level without a Teigu is really amazing."
With a swish, Mez suddenly appeared behind Leone.
She threw a heavy punch toward Leone's lower back.
Leone's hair stood on end. After transforming, her instincts had also been greatly enhanced.
She quickly twisted her body, crossed her arms in front of her, and blocked the fierce blow.
An invisible shockwave spread out from Leone.
Leone curled her lips and mocked,
"That's soft, little girl!"
As she spoke, she suddenly exerted force, her sharp claws slicing through the air as she fiercely struck at Mez.
Mez retreated and easily dodged, looking at Leone with excitement.
"You're quite tough. Is that your Teigu ability? Interesting~"
The claw strike missed, and Leone looked at her opponent somewhat helplessly.
Both were close-combat types. Against such a fast enemy, she really had no good way to deal with it.
Suddenly, large sticky beads of sweat appeared on Mez's wheat-colored skin.
She flung her arm, and the droplets shot out.
The Four Rakshasa Demons could freely control their bodies.
They gained this ability through special training methods and by consuming the blood of a special Danger Beast called Lake Kraken.
Leone dodged the sweat droplets, a look of disgust appearing on her face.
"That's gross~"
The droplets struck the ground, but Mez was not trying to hit Leone.
She was altering the terrain to make the battle more favorable.
On the other side, Susanoo was fighting Ibara.
Ibara's limbs stretched in a bizarre way, like a rubber man.
He launched a storm of attacks at Susanoo.
Susanoo remained expressionless.
He swung the massive club-like weapon in his hand, blocking all of the attacks.
Ibara frowned. Susanoo gave him a very strange feeling.
"This guy is a bit off."
Susanoo twisted his wrist, and a heavy impact rang out.
Ibara's left arm was knocked aside, but his right hand took the opportunity, forming a blade with his fingers and stabbing toward Susanoo.
Susanoo stomped the ground and used the recoil to charge straight at Ibara.
He showed no intention of defending at all.
Ibara sneered inwardly, "Trading injury for injury? Idiot!"
The massive club, carrying a cold wind, smashed toward Ibara's left abdomen.
At the same time, Ibara's right hand had already pierced through Susanoo's lower abdomen.
With a tearing sound, the attack landed, but no blood flowed.
The wind from the opponent's weapon blew Ibara's purple hair apart, and he revealed a mocking smile.
The next moment, Ibara's body twisted strangely.
His entire torso seemed to be pulled sideways by an invisible force.
He narrowly avoided the attack.
Feeling the sensation in his hand, Ibara thought,
"This feeling... is this a Teigu human?"
Just as Ibara thought he had avoided the strike,
Countless blades suddenly extended from the massive club. These blades spun like a chainsaw.
Ibara's pupils shrank, instantly realizing he had been tricked.
His body twisted again, but it was already too late.
The sound of blades cutting flesh rang out repeatedly.
Bits of flesh splattered into the air.
Ibara groaned.
His arm extended rapidly. The moment his fingers hooked into the eye socket of the fountain statue,
His body was yanked away like a kite pulled by invisible strings, flying rapidly toward the fountain ruins.
Droplets of blood sprayed from his side, drawing a long red line in the air.
Susanoo did not pursue. The large hole in his abdomen instantly healed.
Then he suddenly turned and rushed toward Leone.
Ibara lay on the ground in a somewhat miserable state. His abdominal injury was quite severe.
The mangled flesh at his side kept pouring out dark red blood.
But soon, Ibara endured the pain and controlled the flesh around the wound to contract rapidly.
This greatly reduced the bleeding.
"Nice one! As expected of Susanoo!"
Leone's face lit up with joy, and she immediately turned and ran without hesitation.
Mez did not care about her companion's injuries at all. She tried to stop Leone and Susanoo from escaping.
But her scratch-like damage was completely useless against two tanks.
Susanoo did not care at all.
As long as his core was not damaged, he could easily recover from any injury.
Seeing this, Mez could only follow at a distance behind Susanoo and Leone, waiting for reinforcements.
Ibara got up, his expression ugly as he said,
"This guy is a Teigu, and pretty smart too."
"Damn it, got tricked."
On a nearby terrace, Chelsea hid by the edge of a wall and witnessed everything.
A guard lay at her feet, already in a "deep sleep."
Chelsea held a lollipop in her mouth.
A smile curled at the corner of her lips, and then she turned and left.
