"Mr. Liva, where are we going?" Emiya asked as he looked at Riva who was walking through the camp in front of him. Although Emiya accepted Riva's invitation, he didn't know where he was going. Emiya had just arrived in this world and was unfamiliar with the place, but he had already rushed into the battlefield. He also had several conflicts with Esdeath and stayed in the military doctor's tent. "Is he someone from a certain village?" After observing for these days, Riva made this judgment about Emiya's origins. As the most powerful country in the entire continent, the empire is almost known to everyone. Even towns in other countries are aware of the existence of such a powerful empire. Perhaps only those villages deep in the mountains and forests that have almost no communication with the outside world know nothing about the empire. Even the powerful empire has not explored all the locations on the entire continent.
After all, there are many extremely powerful and dangerous species in the world. The two are far apart, and the empire is unwilling to expend a large amount of military force to provoke them. Just like the empire facing the northern barbarians. The empire was in danger. If it were not for the support of the imperial weapon, it would have collapsed to the ground long ago. How could he have the energy to go on expeditions to fight for new territories? If they had not invaded the empire, perhaps the empire would not have sent Esdeath to attack. "Meet up with my other two teammates, and then head towards the imperial capital." Riva answered Emiya's questions in a steady voice. He could still give Emiya Shirou an answer to such questions, but the deeper reasons might only be covered up with lies. The army's marching speed is very slow, and if they wait until Esdeath returns to the empire to respond to the members of the night raid, they will be very passive. Esdeath was not willing to passively wait for Night Raid to make a decision for her. Although she did not think that the night attack could cause any harm to her, this was due to her absolute confidence in her own strength. So Esdeath decided to send his three beast warriors to the empire first, and work together with Minister Ernest to kill those ministers who opposed him, and then put the blame on the Night Raid Organization. Esdeath also considered bringing Shirou Emiya along. Jean Liva told Shirou Emiya that those people were the decaying teeth of the empire, who had killed countless people and raped women, and they should be killed at all costs. He will act together with the Three Beast Warriors. Even if Emiya does not kill them personally, he is already an accomplice because he did not stop the Three Beast Warriors' actions. Because he had the power to stop it but he saw those people being executed with his own eyes. Esdeath was looking forward to what kind of expression Emiya would have when he finally found out that those who were killed were all loyal and kind people. Thinking of this, Esdeath took a piece of the apple that the guard had just brought over, which had been chopped up and seemed to have been prepared in some way. After taking a gentle bite, sweet yet not smooth juice burst out of her mouth. “It tastes really good!”
It was rare for Esdeath to express her praise for a food. Even in the Empire, Esdeath had never tasted food with such a rich and intoxicating flavor. "Which chef in the army made it?" Esdeath decided to make him her personal chef. "This was made by the young man named Emiya who was beside Liwa. Lord Liwa thought that this food tasted very good, so he asked me to bring it here for you to taste." The guard knelt before Esdeath and answered her questions respectfully. "Really? Looks like we have to bring forward the matter of recruiting him as a subordinate." Esdeath licked her lips out of habit, savoring the taste of the apples. ——————I am the dividing line—————— "Hey! Why is General Liva taking care of a child?" Sitting on the carriage, a person with short golden hair, two devil-like horns on top of his head and an extremely cute face greeted Riva and Shirou Emiya who were walking over. In his hand he held something like a flute. "Sorry for the wait, Niu." Liva didn't care about his provocation at all. In fact, he didn't mean to provoke Liva at all, but he always spoke so harshly. On the other side, before Shirou Emiya could catch up with Riva, a man with an extremely strong body stood in front of Shirou Emiya holding a huge axe in his hand. "Are you the boy who fought with Lady Esdeath?" He looked at Shirou Emiya extremely fiercely, as if he was going to tear him to pieces in the next second. "Don't scare the little kid. Maybe he hasn't even killed anyone yet." Niu, who was sitting next to the car, was swinging the flute in her hands, with an expression of watching a show on her face. Except for Riva, the other two had never witnessed the battle between Shirou Emiya and Esdeath. They didn't believe that someone without an imperial weapon could fight such a terrifying woman. Even in the end, Shirou Emiya was killed instantly by Esdeath. They didn't even have the courage to fight Esdeath, and they couldn't believe that anyone who was defeated by Esdeath would still have the courage to face her. And Riva also stood in front of the carriage without any dissuasion. He just stood there quietly, not saying a word. "Yes, what's the matter?" Shirou's tone also turned cold, he knew what was going to happen next. "You will become my experience value!" He roared loudly with great excitement, and swung the huge axe in his hand towards Emiya's neck without any mercy. With one strike, he intended to kill Emiya's head.
Daidas, as one of the three beast warriors of Esdeath, is a complete battle maniac who prefers to fight with strong opponents to increase his experience points. only---- "clang----!" An extremely shocking voice sounded from in front of Daidas. He only had time to see a flash of silver sword light. Emiya's whole body seemed to have not moved. Only his right hand was holding a weapon like a samurai sword that came from nowhere. He pressed it against Daidas' neck, and a trickle of blood oozed out. "boom----!" A few seconds later, a loud noise drew everyone's attention. I saw a huge axe blade falling from the sky and smashing heavily on the ground, causing a huge wave of vibration. In just a moment, Emiya knocked the axe out of Daidas's hand and put the knife in his hand on his neck. Chapter 64: Finally Reaching the Empire The four people sat in the carriage silently, but it should not be called a carriage, it should be called a dangerous carriage. In order to reach the empire in the shortest possible time, Esdeth deliberately captured a dangerous species and used extremely violent means to make it obey his orders, destroying all its offensive and feeding organs. Its strong survival instinct told it that if it obeyed the orders of the woman in front of it, it might be able to survive for a while, but if it didn't, it would die on the spot. Because in front of it are large numbers of dead compatriots. The driver seemed to be very skilled, like a veteran who had driven in Akina Mountain before. Even though the creature in front of him had changed from a horse to a dangerous species, he drove his car very steadily. If there is a glass of water on a dangerous car, it must be very stable and not a drop of water will spill. Perhaps this driver had delivered tofu to his father before. However, no matter how good your driving skills are, you can't stabilize the mood of some people sitting in the car. Especially Daidas who was defeated with one blow. Several times he wanted to rush forward and use his powerful physical strength to beat Emiya Shirou into a pulp. But the blood that kept oozing out of his neck reminded him that if he dared to take a step forward, he would be the one to fall to the ground. He had no confidence that he could surpass Emiya's speed. You have to know that during the entire moment of the attack, he didn't react at all, and he didn't even know when the weapon in his hand was knocked away. If Emiya was really an enemy, he might not even have the ability to react and his head would have flown straight into the sky. He was probably still thinking that he had already cut off Emiya's head. The biological instinct made him lower his head and show the posture of a loser. Could it be that thin people have such powerful strength? Whether it is Riva, Esdeath, or the red-haired boy in front of him, they all have their own unparalleled power.
How can he win? Even if he gets the imperial weapon, he still can't win. This makes Daidas fall into deep self-doubt. Then he looked up and saw Niu beside him. Sure enough, the world is not so outrageous. At least I can easily crush this pervert in front of me who likes to collect women's faces. "What's your look!" Niu kicked Daidas, expressing her dissatisfaction with him in her eyes. And Emiya Shirou was sitting facing the two of them. Whether it was because it was their first meeting or the smell of blood emanating from them, Emiya felt repulsed by it. Emiya planned to follow them to the so-called empire first and then leave. Traveling with them would only make Emiya feel uncomfortable. Emiya did not pursue the smell of blood on the two people in front of him. Even he himself had the smell of blood on his body that he could not wash off no matter what. Once you are on the battlefield, you have no choice. Even Riva, who had been with Emiya for a few days, had a slight smell of blood on him. It's just that compared to the two people in front of him, it's a little weaker, but not much weaker. Those who can become Esdeath's subordinates and become the main fighting force on the battlefield have the blood of countless people on their hands. But Riva has his own principles. Unless Esdeath gives a direct order, Riva generally will not attack innocent people, and he does not have any special hobbies. If Esdeath ordered him to kill indiscriminately, even if it was to massacre a city, Riva would be able to do it. He is now completely loyal to Esdeath, and no matter how unscrupulous the order is, Riva will choose to accept it. "Don't even think about leaving for now. Lady Esdeath has told me to keep an eye on you." Seeing Emiya constantly looking out the window, as if looking for an opportunity, Riva reminded Emiya. Tell Emiya that I have been staying by your side these days not only to take care of you, but also because I have the duty to monitor you. It also allowed Emiya to hear the subtext. If Emiya escapes, the best outcome for Riva would be that Esdeath would leave his body intact. Emiya didn't know that this was a show between Riva and Esdeath. He knew that if he left, Esdeath would never let Riva go. After careful consideration, Emiya could only temporarily suppress his idea of gathering intelligence within the empire. They could only sit in the car obediently and follow them to carry out the tasks given to them by Esdeath. Of course, Emiya had no idea what their mission was, so he asked. "What do you plan to do after you go to the Empire?" “Kill——”
Before Niu could speak, Liva quickly interrupted her. It turns out that people born into noble families have no sense of confidentiality. Emiya hasn't really become Esdeath's subordinate yet, so how could he be described to him like this? "Bring some of the scum of the Empire to justice." Riva answered Emiya in a very affirmative tone. And the very shrewd Niu standing by also understood why Liva did this.
