A boundless sea of blood, as if her entire body was soaked in crimson liquid.
Kaede still remembered the first time she entered this place—the feeling of suffocation, the fear, the disgust, and that blood-red giant dragon that swallowed her in the final bite!
It was still the same, but this time, miraculously, Kaede did not feel the suffocation, nor that feeling of drowning.
She raised her hand, and as if everything before her was fake, she didn't touch anything at all.
However, there was one thing that was real: the blood-red giant dragon staring at Kaede with wide eyes—the Blood Demon Dragon King.
"Roar!" A violent roar rang in Kaede's ears once again.
This time, there was not a trace of fear in Kaede's eyes; there was only a playful look.
Seeming to be provoked by Kaede's gaze, the Blood Dragon opened its gaping maw.
"Hmph!"
Kaede snorted coldly, used her fingers to smooth out the hair messed up by the Blood Dragon's roar just now, and looked calmly at that gaping maw.
"Bang!" That was the sound of the Blood Dragon's fangs closing.
"Sooner or later, I will trample you under my feet and make you lick the dust!"
A calm yet firm voice drifted through the space from out of nowhere.
The Blood Dragon looked up at the sky, then closed its eyes and laid back down.
Opening her eyes again, it was still late at night. Kaede looked at Akame in her arms, looked at her sleeping face, a long-lost smile hung on the corners of her mouth, and she tightened her arm.
Looking up at the cold moon outside the window, it seemed to turn into a Dragon Pupil in Kaede's eyes at this moment; her smile gradually changed, and her eyes narrowed.
"Just you wait. Even if you are my Teigu, it is intolerable; how can I allow you to toy with me like this!"
At this moment, as if she had figured something out, Kaede regained the ability to smile, and it seemed to feel a bit different.
Moreover, Kaede suddenly developed an interest in her shingu—no, it could already be called a Teigu—and was no longer as repulsed by it as before.
Although its ability was very strong, that pseudo-immortal ability was truly disgusting, and there was one skill she had kept sealed; it wasn't that it wasn't strong, but rather it didn't fit what Kaede was currently doing at all.
However, Kaede had a feeling that if one day she could trample this Blood Dragon under her feet, then she would be able to use the full power of this Teigu without any side effects!
It was still early, so she could continue sleeping. She nuzzled against Akame's hair in her arms until she almost woke Akame up, and only then did Kaede fall asleep contentedly. This time, she finally did not enter that place again.
In the early morning, Akame opened her hazy eyes, her exquisite face looking adorable, and her hair a bit messy.
Then Akame sat there, dazed for a moment, rubbed her sleepy eyes, shook her head, and finally woke up. However, after waking up, Akame saw Kaede standing in front of her, looking at her with a smile.
"Uh, Kaede..." Akame was stunned. She hadn't seen her sister's smile in a long time, had she? The last time, she had a stiff face, and except for the eyes that were still doting, it was like facing a stranger.
Although Akame didn't say it, she still had a little resentment in her heart.
However, now, Akame looked at her sister's smile, and a flush slowly rose on her face. Her sister's smile was truly beautiful!
Really, Akame could guarantee it was truly beautiful. The doting in the smile made her sink into it, and there was a unique temperament and style to it. Akame felt that even though she looked the same as her sister, she could definitely not make such a smile!
However, what puzzled Akame a little was that the emotions contained in Kaede's smile seemed to be getting a bit strange.
Actually, this couldn't be blamed on Kaede. Kaede looked at Akame.
"Ugh... I can't take it anymore!" After a loud cry, Kaede finally couldn't help but pounce on Akame, hugging her and nuzzling against her. Akame didn't know how lethal her appearance was—the messy clothes, the messy hair, and that cute sleepy expression, topped off with the flush on her face—it was a finishing blow to Kaede, sinking Kaede's last line of psychological defense.
"Ugh! Kaede!!" Akame was being ravaged by a wicked person so early in the morning.
"You're awake. If you're awake, then..." Chikushi opened the door; after all, she and Akame were so close that there was no need to knock. However, Chikushi, who was walking in through the open door, looked at everything happening in the room.
Then Chikushi only saw Kaede's murderous gaze, which clearly said, "Get out!"
"Uh, that, sorry for the interruption!!" Chikushi bowed, her giant breasts swaying, and then she shut the door and ran out quickly.
'Wuwu~ Sister Akame's eyes are so scary!'
"What's wrong? Chikushi, didn't I ask you to call Akame and Kaede for breakfast?" Cole asked, seeing Chikushi panting.
"Wuwu~ Sister Cole!" Among these people, Cole's popularity was undoubtedly the highest. Feeling wronged, Chikushi threw herself directly into Cole's arms.
"Eh? There, there, it's okay." Cole squinted her eyes, soothing Chikushi like she was petting a puppy, her Big Sister aura fully exposed.
Honestly, the Big Sister aura she carried, plus her long legs, her unexpectedly tall height, and her golden hair that was always loose. (I feel like the manga is black and white...)
"I'll go call them," Cole said. "Akame and Kaede both seem to like eating, right?" Cole was sure that Akame liked eating a lot, but Kaede should too, after all, she ate so much last time...
"Eh, no! Not now!" Chikushi jumped up in fright.
"Eh? What is it?" Cole was a bit puzzled.
"That..." Chikushi's face turned red. Only then did she notice something wrong. It didn't seem like anything, but she still didn't want to go!
However, there was no need for them to go call them anymore. Akame, with a flushed face, had already walked out, followed by a seemingly displeased Kaede, who even glared at Chikushi when she saw her.
"Ugh..." As for Chikushi, she hid directly behind Cole.
"Alright, alright, Kaede won't eat you." Cole patted Chikushi, who was hiding behind her, with a chuckle. "Since everyone is here, let's eat."
Kaede, meanwhile, was a bit depressed. After Chikushi left, the startled Akame broke free from her arms and refused to get close to her again no matter what.
Ugh, so sad. She was so cute, why wouldn't she let me nuzzle her!
Turning grief into appetite, Kaede once again displayed the terror of her appetite in front of the Elite Group—well, this time with the addition of an instructor of the Elite Group!
The members of the Elite Group looked at each other, all feeling that Kaede seemed to have changed? And the change was quite big! At least... she didn't look like the zombie-faced person she was before.
