Countless Danger Beasts descended from the sky. There were strong and weak ones among them, but all possessed massive bodies. Their goal was to directly crush the Northern Army below!
Obviously, during these past few months, Cerydra was not the only one preparing for war. The Empire had also been making preparations, and looking at this formation, they had clearly put in a lot of effort.
It was just unknown what else would come next, and what kind of trump card the Revolutionary Army had up their sleeves...
"I hope you won't disappoint me!"
The cold aura emanating from Esdeath became increasingly severe. With a wave of her small hand, a kilometer-long iceberg instantly emerged, freezing those massive Danger Beasts in mid-air in the blink of an eye.
And next was the moment for Hysilens to display her authority.
Two familiar swords appeared in Hysilens's hands. The black-haired woman postured as if to play the violin, ready to perform a perfect piece of music.
Only, hidden beneath this music was killing intent directed at her prey!
Just like a bobbit worm hiding in the sandy bottom of the Sea Water, ready to launch a fatal attack at any moment.
Hum—!
The sound of the violin spread outward with Hysilens at the center, achieving an almost perfect coordination with Esdeath. The moment all those Danger Beasts were frozen, the sonic attack arrived just in time, directly shattering all the Danger Beasts into pieces, leaving not a single one behind.
Hysilens even utilized the impact of the sound waves to send those fragments flying into the Royal Capital of the Empire, crushing many soldiers of the Empire to death. It could be said she made the most of everything.
"Is this the only extent of it? Attack!"
Two gigantic monsters were engaged in hand-to-hand combat on the other side of the Royal Capital of the Empire, naturally drawing everyone's attention easily. Therefore, after a brief observation, Hysilens ordered the army to advance and launch a general offensive against the Royal Capital.
The target, the Royal Palace!
If nothing unexpected happened, Minister Honest of the Empire should be there. As long as the Empire was completely overthrown, the Revolutionary Army would be easy to deal with next.
From beginning to end, Cerydra had never paid much attention to the Revolutionary Army. After all, their strength was truly nothing special. Even though a cooperative relationship had been established, it was only a state akin to leaving them to their own devices.
Ultimately, the only ones Cerydra had her eyes on were Chelsea and her group; as for the rest, they were just a joke!
With the army's sudden assault, the walls of the Empire collapsed almost at the first touch. Even the hardest rocks in this world could not withstand the attacks of the Chrysos Heirs...
Even those long-prepared armies and weapons found it difficult to inflict effective damage on the Chrysos Heirs.
Upon seeing this scene, Hysilens was shocked.
"I thought the battle would be like two evenly matched sharks, but I didn't expect one side... to actually be sardines?"
Didn't this mean they directly turned from opponents into food?
...It was really hard to keep a straight face.
"Next, I probably won't need to make a move, right?"
The strength of the Chrysos Heirs was already powerful to begin with, perfectly capable of suppressing and beating the army of the Empire. If Hysilens were to join in, this battle, which could already be called a crushing defeat, would directly turn into a massacre.
Only now did Hysilens remember an important matter.
"Imperator, it seems we imagined the Empire to be too powerful?"
"You have a point."
Thinking back carefully over it, ever since the Northern Country began its Rest and Recuperation, their strength had been growing every day. On the contrary, the Empire, this massive tree decayed by borers, simply found it difficult to recover its lost vitality and could only gather all its power in the Empire.
But even gathered together, ants were still ants. There was absolutely no way they could deal with a massive deep-sea fish like Hysilens. They weren't even enough to serve as fish feed, because Hysilens...
Was a meat-eater!
What she liked best was fresh and tender meat!
Just like Cerydra, who tasted not the slightest bit worse than Honey Brew.
"However, is it really going to end just like this?"
There were quite a few Imperial Arms Users within the army of the Empire, but because of the special nature of their abilities, these Imperial Arms Users had long been guarded against by the Chrysos Heirs. It was absolutely impossible for them to reveal any openings.
Under these circumstances, the only fate waiting for these Imperial Arms Users of the Empire would be cold death!
Because these battles really didn't have much worth watching, and Esdeath was almost at the Royal Capital, Hysilens slowly turned her gaze toward those two giant beasts that were currently brawling with each other.
It was exactly in this moment of Hysilens's distraction that someone who had been lurking around made his move...
"You finally revealed an opening, Shangri-La!"
Listening to the voice, it seemed to be a young man, and his tone of speaking was very frivolous. It was clearly not a tone that a good person would use.
Coupled with the use of Shangri-La, an Imperial Arms capable of spatial transfer, the identity of the person behind it was naturally easy to guess. That was the son of Minister Honest, Syura!
Because of the special nature of a spatial Imperial Arms, even though Hysilens possessed super-strong perceptive abilities and realized the presence of an enemy at the first moment, she had no way to react immediately.
Because the speed of spatial transfer happened in an instant!
It could be considered one of the very few Imperial Arms in the world of Akame ga Kill that could pose a threat to Cerydra and Hysilens.
A formation resembling Taiji immediately emerged under Hysilens's feet. Gradually, Shangri-La's special formations appeared in most parts inside the Empire.
"It can actually cover such a large range? How truly impressive..."
Hysilens was quite surprised. The distances between these magical formations were almost non-existent; wanting to completely avoid them was virtually impossible.
What made Hysilens worry even more was that the Imperial Arms Shangri-La couldn't just engrave formations on the ground, it could even do so in mid-air!
Facing this kind of spatial transfer ability, even Cerydra and Hysilens found it hard to defend against, nor could they easily deal with it. Otherwise, the Journey of Chasing Fire wouldn't have been so difficult and wouldn't have resulted in the deaths of so many Chrysos Heirs.
The only method of breaking the deadlock that Hysilens could think of was to blow his head off the instant the opponent appeared!
Therefore, from the start of the war until now, Hysilens had been preserving her strength. Only when the army of the Northern Country could not withstand those massive attacks would she take action.
The reason she did this was to guard against this troublesome spatial Imperial Arms. Fortunately, Hysilens eventually waited until Syura made his move!
The moment that voice came over, Hysilens's pupils immediately turned a profound sea blue. The ability of the Demigod of Ocean was pushed to its limits at this very moment.
The spatial Imperial Arms was not only a trouble for Hysilens, but it was also an absolute killing machine against the soldiers of the Northern Country. If not dealt with at the fastest possible speed, it would sooner or later become a grave threat.
Hysilens had only one thought regarding this. Upon sensing the source of that voice, at the fastest speed possible...
Kill!
Even though the Imperial Arms transfer was already completed, Hysilens's attack was still launched at this very moment, even much faster than supersonic teleportation.
This unprecedented attack instantly transformed into an arrow of light, piercing directly through Syura's heart.
And it was precisely at this moment that Hysilens understood.
Between the warriors of the Northern Country and the warriors of the Empire, there existed an insurmountable chasm!
