Another omake for these story that you guys seemed to enjoy. I will admit that I have never thought that it could get more popular that I have realized, nor do I even think that it could get more chapters than many of the other stories I have been making as a hobby and nothing but my attempt to getting rid of all the images I have gotten.
And yeah, that is anyway, a ballsy move for me.
But anyway, I have been taking an unbelievable interest with the story since I have these neat ideas that I want to implement into the Akame ga Kill lore.
This story was made to preferably giving it more depth to the lackluster canon story of Akame ga Kill, trying to make it more interesting and make it less bleak and cliche than it's source material.
To be fair, this story was nothing more than a self insert, wish fulfillment, power fantasy that takes inspiration from 'Temporal Anomaly' as I have already mentioned before and other Akame ga Kill stories that I only read for the yellow fruit that is very sour and the catharsis of overpowered characters curb stomping depraved douchebags with no mercy or remorse.
That was until I have these bright idea to make it less like a self insert power fantasy and more or like a true story where as the adventure goes, the obstacles themselves will not be easy, the plot is getting complicated and there are other stuff that will be coming out that will make Akame ga Kill itself, all the more interesting, full of neat development of characters, the deconstruction and the reconstruction of it all.
But what if the plot goes away from the nonsensical story demands and let Admodeus invade the Empire after dealing with Esdeath and the Northern Tribe, all the while, not dealing with some of the added content that I have been putting just to make interesting?
This story deals with Admodeus.... well... just invade the Empire and he doesn't waste time making relationship or connection and just go enacting his invasion without any nonsense or inefficiency.
If he wants it, he wants and sure, it may make him comes across as reckless and just doing the invasion without any planning and strategy.
But hey, he has an army of giant armoured juggernauts, monstrous creatures, the ability to summoned demons, all loyal to him and Asmodeus himself being an immensely powerful demon king with powers and abilities that I always put into him for the sake of convenience or plot demands, who cares.
Now, on with the show.

Enjoy.
___________________________________________
"People of the Empire, have no fear. I am Asmodeus. The Supreme Lord of the Nine Hells and Emperor of the Tartarus Empire. I have come to bare you all a craven news. I am going to invade you. I am going to conquer your Empire and usurped it's ruler as your new Emperor of your Capital. However, you may think of me as a power hungry despot who will show no mercy to the innocent and cause senseless bloodshed in the name of my want and desire. And you maybe right. But do not forget of your own Empire, a cesspool of corruption and decadence, where the nobles and authority figures have abused their power against the innocent, committing all manner of atrocities in the name of conquest and power and letting the criminals be given such acts of freedom to corrupt the city and abused the citizens to their hearts content. You may also think that I am no different from the many, many of the corrupt generals, nobles and authority figures that you have suffered under their thumb. But let me assure you that I am above of such acts of needless cruelty and senseless acts of evil. I am not like those weak and pathetic humans who commit all these acts of evil out of there desperate attempt at boredom. If you want to survive from the coming war, pray on your knees and chant "ASMODEUS SALVA NOS", and I will keep you, your family and your love one safe. Safe and protected from the coming war. I don't expect you to believe me but what is better? Becoming a collateral to the judgement that is sent upon the Empire for all its evil? Or survive and lived a new day in a new age where you are no longer a victim of the corrupt, living a life of freedom, independence, peace and prosperity above all else? Chant it with the earnest desperation to live free from the horrors that humanity has been brought upon you all. And you will be safe. As for you, Imperial fools. Ready all of yours weapons, your armies, your fighting force and the morale of your troops as much as you can. Let me give you all a whole grain of truth: Esdeath has betrayed you. Which means that the Empire's Strongest is now the Empire's Worst Enemy yet, defeated by me and willing to fight against you all. Because trying to convince a woman who was only convinced to tolerate your Empire's corruption out of wanting war above all else is far from a wise choice. So, go ahead. Claim your superiority like no other. It is the inevitable. Oh, and as for you Revolutionary Armies and Night Raid as well. Don't intervene in this war of judgement. This has nothing to do with you. Intervene at your own peril and I won't promise you that you'll survive against the horror that I will bring upon these city. I mean it. Now then, since I am already done with my speech, I believe that it is time for the invasion to begin. Judgement Day... Is... At... Hand...."
The day when Asmodeus has made his declaration was the day the Empire has suffered the worst invasion in.... well, ever.
And what an invasion the Empire suffered.
One day when Asmodeus has made his speech by appearing on some sort of magical hologram that appeared up in the sky, the citizens who had suffered from the corruption of the Empire, waste no time, albeit reluctantly, get on their praying stance and chant the phrase that Asmodeus had given them.
Many would think that such a thing would be ridiculous, borderline fantastical even. However, when the first had prayed, chant and suddenly disappeared in a blinding red light, those who have suffered take no issue in chanting the phrase that were given by the Supreme Lord of the Nine Hells.
Reports have indicated on how the population of the Capital had been reduced considerably and time and time again, all the citizens, the prisoners and even the slaves have all disappeared from thin air, out of sight from the authority figures, the slave masters' sight and everything else until finally, the Capital has become nothing more than a nearly deserted ghost town.
The already terrible economy of the Empire has been downgraded considerably and seriously enough, the only inhabitants of the Empire are usually the nobles, the merchants and many others.
And really, all of them are all corrupt and decadent fools who no longer have any victims for them to play with and now, they care more about arguing, manipulating and stabbing each other out to satisfy their insatiable craving to inflicting pain, fear and misery in anyway possible.
The soldiers were there to keep order of the Capital and no bribes are more than capable of keeping order at any cost. Some, however, were willing to blackmail the Prime Minister at living them alone but they were killed under orders of the Prime Minister Honest.
This is proven to be a moot point as the Capital is still deserted and the economy is plummeting and everyone is trying to gain any power they can have in the Empire as a civil war occurred, resulting the Empire literally suffering from even more considerable damage than it was ever before.
But right now, at the very least the Prime Minister's faction won and even gaining the money needed to gained a considerable amount of hired warriors, mercenaries, criminals and others to push back against the invasion from Asmodeus and his Tartarus Empire.
Unfortunately, it was proven to be a extreme point of inevitable judgement.
____________________________________________
The Capital is being under siege.
Everything is burning.
Destruction is at every corner.
The screams of people dying are everywhere.
The Empire is teetering on the brink of defeat.
And nothing they can do to survive against a far more superior force.
"Don't stop now. Push back at any cost. Don't you dare run away from the battle soldier or you will be-AAAGGHHH!?" That was the Imperial Captain was about to say before he was killed by a stray fireball.
The many soldiers of the Empire all watched as their captain is killed and burned by one of the Tartarus Empire's flaming birds who flies up into the sky and continuously spitting fire balls and breathing flames from their mouth as all the soldiers that were struck by the flying fire birds were all burned and die in the horrible way possible.
It was a battle in the middle of the night and the so-called proud soldiers of the Empire were defending the Capital in all their dying breath against the coming of the Tartarus Empire.
And to say that was nearly impossible was a forgiving fact.
No matter how much they tried to defend their city from the onslaught of the invasion, using cannons, number of firearms and manpower at their disposal, they pale in comparison to the many, many armies of armoured behemoth that mercilessly kill their soldiers with merciless efficiency.
"Hold them down. Hold them down. Don't give these bastards any quarter. Seriously, where is that ammo?" One of the soldiers said, yelling for any ammo for their machine guns.
"It's all out. All out." The soldier said in fright and terror.
"What? What do you mean, all-AAUGH!?" That was what the soldier was about to say before he was impaled from the back by one of those giant armoured behemoth soldiers with an equally long and large spear.
The rest of the soldiers all watched in horror as the tall armoured knight wrenched the body from his spear before he glared at the rest. And they don't need a cell of a brain to realise it's intention.
The Capital City of the Empire is embroiled in a war of a catastrophic end as the proud soldiers of the Empire were all trying to defend by manning their battle stations and using everything they could against the armies of the Tartarus Empire.
Unfortunately, to an unsympathetic person, it felt like a fly trying to get through a hard glass and no matter how relentless the fly, it wouldn't budge.
Just as the Imperial Soldiers tried and tried to use their guns to fire against the armies of armoured behemoths but the constant sound of metal keeping on pinging makes it clear that it doesn't do a damned thing about it and it also doesn't help that no matter how much they tried to run to provide any vantage point, these armoured giants are fast, capable of running fast enough to kill a runaway soldier by cleaving them with their dual curved swords.
And one tried to shoot them from the roof but they were either get jumped on by the armoured behemoths who easily jump on the roof to kill them or fall after the armoured juggernauts just smash the buildings to oblivion.
Aside from the armies of these giant armoured knights, there are also other sort of others as well.
Such as the aforementioned flying hawks made of flames who still breathe fire from their beaks as they fly around and burn anyone to asunder.
Some are humanoid beings made entirely out of lava that melt anyone with their magma body.
Some are basically oversized salamanders that cling onto the walls of the buildings and were shooting their tongues out to stick onto any Imperial Soldiers they set their sights on and devour them.
Some were basically a humanoid swarm of maggots wearing a hood that were busy doing something to their allies that already makes them even more dangerous.
What can be described as the general of the army is shown as it speak in a foreign sound as he is leading the soldiers to battle.
And some appear to be flying hooded figures who's robes and hood were made from flesh of all things alongside their armies of other creatures that looked tentacle eyes made of bloody blob as they are shown to be weaving the blood from the corpses of anyone and those that were splattered on the floor as they continue spawning those flying little bloody tentacled eyes.
Meanwhile, from the rest of the battlefield itself....
The soldiers are the Empire were all being killed as one has their chest being cut upon as none other than Esdeath had killed him as the rest were all backing away, shaking in fear at the sight of the Empire's Strongest are now killing them all without mercy, remorse or hesitation.
"Is that all the best you soldiers can do? Pathetic. And to think that you are under my command? How... Weak..." Esdeath said in a disdainful tone at the soldiers.
"W-why...." Esdeath then looked at one of the soldiers she had just killed, barely clinging to life as he is mumbling, "Why... d-do you... b-b-betr-ray us, lady Esdeath?" The soldier said to the general.
He get his only response by Esdeath slamming her heel into the eye sockets of the soldier, basically killing him as Esdeath just looked with a lack of empathy.
"Only my love can call me that name. And it's simple. I was defeated by someone stronger than me and in my opinion, I deserved to be either a slave or less so. And besides, Asmodeus completes me." Esdeath said with a smile before she started to spread her killing intent upon the soldiers, backing them away in absolute fear.
Only for her to feel a hand on her shoulder and she turned around to see none other than...
"Asmodeus!" Esdeath said in shock of none other than the Supreme Lord of the Nine Hell himself appearing beside her.
"I see that you are enjoying the battle, my love. You're welcome, by the way." Asmodeus said as Esdeath smiled before she comes closer and gives the Tartarus Emperor a kiss, "Now then, why don't you fight somewhere else? Let me handle this pathetic weaklings."
"Of course, my lord." Esdeath said with a bow before she ran off, leaving Asmodeus with a lot of helpless Imperial Soldiers.
As Asmodeus is walking towards them with his sword in hand, the soldiers were all shown to gain their confidence back as they whip out their swords while some brandished their guns in hand.
"C-come on guys. He's just one man."
"Yeah, we can take him."
"F-f-for the Empire."
All of them were all readying their weapons as they are ready to kill the Emperor of the Tartarus Empire himself as Asmodeus just looked at them all with a roll of his eyes and swinging his sword around before saying, "Time to dance."
The three soldiers were all charging ahead in equal scope as they raised their swords and tried to kill him.
However, Asmodeus suddenly disappear from thin air before their swords could connect and before anyone of them could think about something...
"Hellfire: Fire Ball."
....as they heard the chant and the three were all hit by three fireballs, burning them alive as they run around, trying to put out the fire before Asmodeus beheads them.
Asmodeus then grabbed a soldier that was trying to hit him with a war pick as he stare at him with a deadpan look and as the soldier gulped in fear, Asmodeus wrenched the arm from the soldier and as he screamed in pain, Asmodeus grabbed his neck and cover himself from the bullets that were firing towards him by the soldier wielding a machine gun.
After the firing shootout were finally over, the soldier tried to reload only for Asmodeus to throw the corpse to the side as his eyes started to glow yellow.
And the gun the soldier had been holding suddenly explode, turning him into an explosion of gore where his legs are the only thing that falls off.
Asmodeus continue to stare before looking to the side as the Capital is still under siege by his army.
He cracked his neck before he runs off, at the direction of the Imperial Palace itself.
___________________________________________
The Capital continue to be burned to the ground as war rages all across the city.
Multiple bodies in the lower district of the Capital were piling up everywhere as a squadron of the Hell Vanguards, led by a Hell General, were all busy killing the many, many criminals that were all trying to run away from the whole ordeal.
"General! General!"
The Hell General heard a soft and raspy voice and he looked back to see a Watcher is approaching him.
"What is it, little Watcher?" The General said in regards to the approaching Watcher.
The Sprite then get his mouth closer to the Hell General's ear and as the General nod his head and grunt in understanding, the Watcher looked like he is done and point at their next destination, with the Hell General gripping his sword firmly while the Hell Vanguards ready their respective weapons.
Meanwhile, at another place...
"Bach, are you sure that we are safe here. And putting our trust in him of all people."
"Well, if you have any bright ideas, I'm all ears."
"Hey, what the hell are you talking back there? Don't forget about our promise."
The majority of the people, most of them are either nobles or criminals, were all sneaking away in the slums as they try to sneak away in the sewer while away from the war.
Bach, alongside the Enthusiasts, were one of the many of both nobles and criminals who were trying to escape from the ongoing war with all of their belongings and bodyguards in tow.
Once, they are free to do whatever they want with their overall corruption and as their name implies, their Enthusiasm... are left to be desired.
Now, they are trying to survive by escaping from the Capital with the help of the son of the Prime Minister and leader of Wild Hunt, Syura, who promised them safety and security in exchange for their support in making Syura the next ruler by gaining any armies to help him in retaking the Empire from either Emperor Makoto or Asmodeus, whichever comes first.
Needless to say is that not everyone is thrilled of going out of their way of helping Syura in whatever pathetic ambitions he has but between having the strength, a group of Teigu users at their control and a chance for them to be alive, they would do anything if it means to survive at any cost.
As these loathsome survivors still followed Syura in the slums, Syura thought about the many things in this situation.
Firstly is the fact that after he had returned from his troops with his dozens of friends of shared interest in tow, the Capital itself, barring a select few nobles, soldiers, police and authority figures, were deserted and after meeting his father, he was told that they was going to be an invasion by a faction known as the Tartarus Empire, led the Asmodeus, the Supreme Lord of the Nine Hell he was called and had ordered him to gained any sort of advantages possible to win and repel against the invasion.
Needless to say that he was thrilled.
Sure he may not be going to enjoy abusing his power place upon him but with his Teigu, alongside his own skilled Teigu users, it will be easy.
That was until when the invasion finally comes and his overconfidence seriously plummets.
He has no idea who the hell is this Tartarus Faction aside from the fact that they have an army of towering armoured knights who's armour makes them impenetrable and are both faster and stronger than their soldiers.
And combining with an array of monsters in their ranks and Syura decided to bail and deserted from the battlefield, cowardice be damned.
And after finding the surviving nobles and criminals who were also trying to run away and turn tail from Honest, he had an idea where he will promise them sanctuary in favour of them supporting him in becoming the new ruler of the Empire by granting him the need of hiring an army and weapons under their belt and in return, the pleasure that they want after the disappearance of their 'lambs'.
And now...
"Syura. How much farther? Because I am not that keen on fighting those guys. Even with my Shamshir, I could be killed when they find us. And it doesn't help that we are wasting time rescuing this useless baggage." Enshin said in tiresome as Syura growl in frustration.
"Shut it, Enshin. Since the old man is still busy wasting time with his desperation for having all his power, I will start from scratch. The old man is going to get desperate in gaining any sort of power he clings and die for all I care and when we're finally out of here, we'll become the ruler of the Empire by usurping Asmodeus for good." Syura said with his ambitious grin at the ready.
"Heh, yeah. By the way, Syura. Don't Dorothea, Cosmina and Izou be with us now?" Enshin said before he looked as Syura sporting a sneer in his expression.
"Please, don't tell me you actually care about them. Cosmina is nothing more than a whore who just want to be slut. Izou wants to kill and what better way than partaking in a war out to satisfy his 'honourable bloodlust' or whatever and don't get me started on that old brat. Dorothea is a traitor and she betrayed me for whatever reason except, in her own words, 'I have a far better man than you. And he completes me' as she said." Syura said before grunting in disgust, "Once we finally escape and return with our new army and weapons that these guys would assist us, we will finally have a city under our control. And we can do whatever the fuck we want." Syura said with a maniacal grin on his face.
"If there is a city to rule." Enshin said, not exactly optimistic about Syura's whole plan.
"Don't care. Not my problem." Champ said in a monotonous expression, being silent about it all.
But before there are more discussion to continue, they then heard a scream from behind.
They turned around to see the many nobles are panicking now.
Groaning in frustration, he then puffed up his chest and yelled, "ALL OF YOU! SHUT UP BACK THERE! IF YOU DON'T CALM THE FUCK DOWN THIS FUCKING INSTANT, YOU'LL BE LEFT BEHIND AND DIE FOR ALL I CARE! NOW SHUT UP OR ELSE!"
"How dare you..." Syura looked to see a little girl is approaching her, all blonde and wearing a blue dress as she sport an angry and disgusted expression on her face, "Who are you to speak to your better that way? I am a noble and I am far better than any of you worthless sheep. So how dare you say such blasphemy to the likes of-AAAGGGHHH!?" The girl is interrupted when Enshin just behead her from her body, stopping her rant for good.
As they saw the spoiled little girl's corpse plopped on the ground, Syura then look at the rest and said, "Anyone else?"
He almost thought that they would stay silent, almost as if they finally know their place. Only...
"THEIR COMING!"
A yell from the back is heard as Syura can see from the farther back to finally saw...
"The Tartarus Empire? H-how... How the hell did they find us?" Syura said in shock as they saw a Hell General with a squadron of Hell Vanguards are shown to be massacring the loathsome survivors with merciless intent, with their respective bodyguards, not doing jack shit.
"WHO CARES! JUST RUN! RUN!" Enshin yelled in fright as everyone scream in fear and terror as they try to run away from them, panic strewn all over their bodies as they try to escape from being slaughtered by the remaining armies of Tartarus.
Meanwhile...
The Enthusiasts are all busy trying to escape from the onslaught of the Hell General and his Vanguards as they are busy chasing the nobles and criminals and slaughtering them without mercy or remorse.
"Dammit, how can we escape from these accursed beings that are killing us?"
"I know a way."
"You do, Bach?"
The Enthusiast in question, gets a gun pointed at him and screamed in pain as Bach shoot his leg, screaming and making him fall down and letting everyone fall upon him.
The other Enthusiasts didn't have much to think or react before they were being gunned down on the knee by Bach who then guns down his fellow bodyguards and anyone he had a spare of bullets could do before he throws his gun on a nearby run away and laughed as he left his fellow nobles, criminals and Enthusiasts at the mercy of the Hell Vanguards as one of them screamed at Bach to get back before he looked back to see a Hell Vanguard towering over him and ready their swords for the kill resulting in a scream of fear and horror.
As Bach laughed as he watched the Hell Vanguards kill his fellows, he then run forward as fast as he can only to be stopped by a tornado of fire that he almost got burned, which the others are not so lucky.
A Hell General has appeared and Bach looked upon in terror at the sight of these armoured flaming knight with a flaming sword, had just appeared in front of him and was about to kill him.
"W-wait... Wait... Before you could kill me, please listen to me..." Bach then showed off something as tugged his sleeves down to reveal some sort of mark, "Here. This is the proof of what had happened to me. I... I was a slave back then. So, please... Please, spare me..." Bach pleaded the Hell General.
Unfortunately, all the Hell General can give is, "I don't care." and all that Bach can feel is being burned to a horrifying and seriously hellish degree.
Meanwhile...
Syura, Enshin and Champ are now running for their dear life from the slaughter fest that is about to come to them.
"Syura, do you even know where to go from here?" Enshin said desperately.
"Shut up and just follow me already." Syura said in frustration.
"Won't we be going to protect these guys? Because we lost a lot of them now." Champ pointed out, looking behind to see that the nobles or criminals that were following them were all massacred to the very last core.
"WHO THE FUCK CARES!?" Syura yelled out in a frantic tone as the trio continue to run away from the ongoing onslaught.
"Seriously, don't you know how to get out of here-AAAGGGHHHHH!?" Enshin is interrupted when something pounced upon him.
Syura and Champ stopped and look back to see Enshin us being mauled by some sort of humanoid reptilian with a silvery and serpentine body as it grabbed hold of Enshin and gorged on him while he continue to scream in pain.
"What the fuck?" Syura said in shock and then he heard a scream to see Champ is being pounced by these same serpentine reptilian creatures as the fat clown lay screaming.
"I can't die yet. I haven't made any children into angels yet." Champ whined in misery before his head was grabbed by one of the reptilian and wrenched it off from his fat body, killing him as the reptile is gorging upon the far clown's head.
Syura is feeling only fear, terror and horror all rolled into one as he is now surrounded by these reptilian creatures who suddenly appeared from a portal and slowly march towards him.
'This can't be happening. This can't be happening. I was supposed to become a ruler of my own city. This just can't be happening. Unless...' Syura smiled as he has been given an epiphany and tried to whip out something from his pocket. Only...
"W-what... What the... Where is it... Where the fuck is it?" Syura said frantically, trying to find where is his Teigu.
"Looking for something?" Syura heard a raspy voice and he looked ahead to see some sort of humanoid ghost-like creature had appeared and is holding his Teigu in hand, "Hehehehehe... Die." The thing chuckled before he disappeared from thin air.
And all Syura can do now is to look around in absolute dread as all these monsters are all approaching him with their sharp teeth, glowing and glaring eyes and numbers are approaching.
"T-t-this can't be happening..." Syura whined in a really wimpy tone before finally, all he can do is scream.
____________________________________________
"Hmph, pitiful and loathsome. You looked like you are enhance to be stronger than a human but you are just like any other human: weak and mortal. Pathetic." Thirteenth said to a crawling person wearing a gimp suit and white mask before the person was decayed to ash.
Thirteenth looked around to see his undead army are feasting on the corpses of these men wearing gimp suits and white mask.
When his lord then sent him to battle, he was then sent to these part of the Capital where his mission is to annihilate some mad scientist of sort where his skills and power as Death itself is at his advantage.
So when the tall, humanoid wearing dark blue robes and a red symbol hiding where his face should be that is the Death Elemental, Thirteenth then march in the part of the burned city to see some sort of mansion on the horizon.
Constantly being followed by his army of undead under his control, with a hand raised in front of him, Thirteenth rot the gate into pieces.
What is blocking his path are more of these white-masked gimps who brandished their claws and snarling at Thirteenth who just looked at them in a deadpan manner and chant, "Orb of Decay." resulting in dozens and dozens of black orbs appearing around him and float around him like a solar.
The white masked jump towards him but all were then fated to be touched by the orb and be decayed by it, rot from the get go as they can't even try to scratch him.
And those that do... well, the only thing they were fated to be is to get grabbed by Thirteenth in the neck and get cracked by it.
After he has done rotting and killing these disturbing army in his path, he then looked up into the mansion to see his target as he bends down and jump.
Meanwhile, inside the mansion...
"Dr. Stylish. I see this thing has already eliminated our army."
"Dr. Stylish. I hear that the screaming is gone."
"Dr. Stylish. I smell a stench of rot and decay is coming and-"
"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP ALREADY!" Dr. Stylish yelled in anger and frustration as he tried to pack his suitcase of his many utensils and equipment in tow while having a frantic expression on his face.
He already has circumstances that are bad enough as it is. For one, after the messenger said that he was given the permission to create an army that would repel against the forces of the Tartarus Empire, he is thrilled at gaining the support he deserved.
And he has succeeded by making an army of his many, many genetically engineered soldiers and warriors that are ready to go to war against the forces of the Tartarus Empire at any cost.
Except that it was not meant to be.
All his work, all gone for nothing as they pale in comparison to the much more fantastical, mystical, illogical and superior force that is the Tartarus Empire, consisting of an army of giant knights, monstrous creatures and people wielding, as disgusted to even say it, 'magic', his own creation are all in shambles.
So now, he decided to screw it and just escape from the Empire.
'Yeah, that's right. Let the Empire fall for all I care. It has outlived it's usefulness by giving me support and it all amounts to nothing. Now, all I need to get to my emergency hatch and-' Dr. Stylish's thoughts in interrupted when he was called by the girl with the big ears.
"Dr. Stylish! Dr. Stylish. Hey, Dr. Stylish-"
"WHAT DO YOU WANT? CAN'T YOU SEE I AM BUSY PACKING EVERYTHING JUST TO SURVIVE! WHAT CAN BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN-" Dr. Stylish stopped his rant when he looked back to see none other than Thirteenth, a tall, pure black humanoid wearing robes and some sort of red symbol on his very face, is standing right in front of him.
All the while, behind him are the bodies of his many creations that are now rotting and decaying on the floor, with their looks of shock plastered on their faces alongside his other creation, Nose and Eyes.
Dr. Stylish could have never felt so much fear since his entire life.
He thought he had thrown away that sort of inhibitions for his own mad science. But he can never throw away the thing that a mortal would ever fear.
The great possibility of death.
And he has nothing to actually defend himself.
I mean, how can he? He's no warrior. He's just a scientist and if he is, he can't even win against something that radiates so much unimaginable death that he would truly quiver in fear.
Mouse herself is also terrified as Thirteenth is approaching but rather than kill her, he just said, "Leave..." in a rather deep and raspy voice to her and as Mouse looked confused, Thirteenth looked like he could kill by glaring and yelled, "NOW!" and Mouse run away, fear already engulfed her body as whatever loyalty she has in her to the Doctor has been overpowered by the fearful presence of Thirteenth.
Dr. Stylish would have been aghast but then again, there isn't much Mouse can do to actually protect him. Thought he is also confused on how this being of death itself would actually spare her.
But he has no time to think as he is now at the mercy of Thirteenth himself who towered over him with his tall and gigantic presence.
"P-p-please... Please... Spare me, oh lord of death... I know of my mistakes... I can be of use to you... Please, don't kill me... Please... My scientific skills could be a betterment to you... So please... Spare me..." Dr. Stylish begged this being of death in front of him but to Thirteenth, all he can hear are nothing but noise as Thirteenth just poke the doctor's head and then, he suddenly rot.
____________________________________________
Meanwhile, back to the burning Capital...
Esdeath is having the time of his life murdering the living hell out of his former soldiers of the Empire, clasping her sword as she kills every warrior, every mercenary and every soldier in her path.
One soldier tried to shoot her with their guns only for Esdeath to jump to avoid the bullets and killed him by stabbing in the head.
As she jumped away from the corpse she stabbed, she then crushed another by her heel before doing a backflip and land as she stare at the armies of her enemies before her before she scoffed.
"Is this all the Empire can offer?" She said as she fired a hail of icicles from her hand, stabbing and killing any of the soldiers it hits, "To think that I am but a general of the Empire." She then started to stomp her feet on the ground, creating a floor of ice that trapped and froze their feet, "But now I know, I am leading nothing but a bunch of pathetic weaklings." The ice started to shatter, resulting in their feet shattered as well, leaving them a screaming mess, "How pathetic." She then march towards one of the screaming soldiers and crushed his head to pieces.
She then looked at the majority of the soldiers who are shaking in fear at the general, even feeling her killing intent, which makes Esdeath sneer in disgust.
"I was a fool to think that my loyalty to the Empire would bring me satisfaction, that only the strong lives and the weak dies. Yet what is strength without challenge." She then started to charge ahead at lightning speed, resulting in one getting bisected from crotch to head, "How can you all be worthy of being strong when you keep feeling strong and making others weak?" Esdeath then behead another from his body with her sword as she continued, "How can you all be this pathetic? How a fool I am to not realized this sooner? That I had the audacity to serve weaklings than those who are worthy of strength..." Esdeath thrust her sword on one of the warriors' abdomen, making him cough blood, "....of power..." Esdeath then kick him away before she fired another icicle from her hand, killing even more soldiers and warriors, "....and survival."
Esdeath then cut the legs of one of the warriors as she looked down with a sneer, "You are all not worthy of ruling this world if you can't handle me and my love, Asmodeus. None of you are worthy if you are this weak. You waste time serving those who are not worthy of strength and power that this is what gets you: complacency, weakness, laziness, fear and stupidity. My mistake is wasting time wanting a war that I should have done the Empire a favour by making it better. Asmodeus has opened my eyes to the greater meaning of strength and weakness. That those who waste time being lazy and avoiding wars are weak and those who had seen the greater truth of the dark world we lived in are strong. I know now of what I must do. The Empire has become weak and it shall be replaced by the strong. The strongest that I have ever imagined. And let us all bow before the glorious strength and power of Asmodeus himself." Esdeath declared her intent before she slammed her hand on the floor, resulting in all the soldiers get frozen in ice, freezing to death.
Esdeath gives a satisfied smile on her face as she watched the aftermath of her power.
Then she looked up and said, "You can come out now, Supreme Commander. Or are you too much of a coward to even face the likes of me?" Esdeath mocked above her.
What comes is someone jumping down and basically destroyed her frozen enemies into pieces and Esdeath looked with a prideful smile as she saw none other than...
"Supreme Commander Budo. I would say it was an honour but you and I both know that the feeling isn't exactly mutual, right?" Esdeath said in faux respect at the sudden appearance of the bulky blonde man wearing Imperialistic armour as both of his gauntlets are all covered in yellow lightning and he stared at Esdeath with a stoic but glaring look.
"General Esdeath. To think that you would betray the Empire. I would have thought so but I didn't know it was all too real." Budo said in disappointment at Esdeath.
"You should thank Asmodeus. Not only did he opened my eyes to the true meaning of my worldview but also someone who loved me for who I am. That and he must really love my body. And I couldn't blame him, thought. I do look good." She then strike a seductive pose, even winking a little.
Budo still look stoic as ever despite Esdeath's flirtatious attempts before saying, "I would have thought that you and Honest together would finally bring an end to the Empire. I just didn't think you would actually betray Honest and be allied with... with... a demon of all things!?"
"So what? Just because he looks demonic and has an army of demonic monsters at his control that he is unworthy to rule? Foolish Commander. Only the strong deserved to rule. Not a child who doesn't know the true reality. Or a fat man who still cling to his supposed superiority despite how little he shows it. Call it a primitive way of thinking but really, that is how the world works. We are just like the Danger Beasts from the way we kill others for survival. And no matter how much we evolve, the need to stain our hands with the blood of our enemies is just nature running it's course. Everyone may try to deny it, cling to whatever ideals they have to be pure, good, clean or whatever. But the reality is that, to survive or doing anything for the 'greater good', sometimes we have to embrace our inner animal and wipe away the weak so that the strong will take it's place. And the Empire is proven to become unworthy of that strength." Esdeath declared to the Supreme Commander as his calm face belies an anger like no other.
"I will not let you destroy the Empire, Esdeath. By my duty as Supreme Commander that was entrusted by the Emperor, I will not let you have your way against my duty." He declared as he clenched his gauntlets in hand as lighting sparks all over them.
Esdeath just scoffed before saying, "I'm sorry but did the pot ever called a lamb like you black?"
"What?" Budo said in an offended tone.
"Apologies Budo but all I say is that this is coming from someone who is nothing more than a damned hypocrite. Seriously, you call me out on my betrayal and hate for what I did to the Empire but actually, the true fault lies with you, Supreme Commander." Esdeath said as Budo glared at her.
"What!?" Budo yelled in an aghast tone at her proclamation.
"Honestly, 'Supreme Commander'? What a joke? Yeah, nice job, Commander. Nice job." She then started to clap her hands mockingly before saying, "Nice job doing nothing while the Empire continue to rot away as parasites all around have made the city suffer from an economic decline and make it a den of corruption of slavery. Honestly, how are you worthy of the rank of Supreme Commander is beyond me."
"I am worthy. My family had served the Empire for generations. To forsook such traditions out of a whim would bring dishonour to the family name." Budo explained but Esdeath is anything but sympathetic.
"So you got your rank out of nepotism? Pathetic." Esdeath scoffed, making Budo even more angered.
"Nepotism? NEPOTISM!? You dare to see my rank as nothing but a hands-me-down? I worked so hard in earning this rank to served the Empire as my family dictates. I am worthy of the rank. Just as I am worthy of wielding Adramelech." Budo yelled again while showing his electrified gauntlets to her.
"And what was that worth has finally done to us all? A spectacular and amazing failure on a catastrophic scale. You could have used your position to make the Capital a better place. You could have tried to fix the Empire of its corruption. You could have even help the Revolutionary Army in winning against the Empire because seriously, we all know why the Revolutionary Army was created in the first place. But no, you just stay in your little old mansion, waiting for whatever opportunity to wipe the corruption of the Empire for good through 'the right way' or whatever, never mind how Honest has no qualms getting his hands dirty with maintaining his power by any means necessary and that he deserved death as much as a chef would have no qualms butchering a live pig to serve for his hungry customers. Unless..."
Esdeath then thought of something before she finally found it and started to laugh out loud.
"What, Esdeath? What is so funny that makes you laugh like a madwoman?" Budo yelled in rage at Esdeath who continue laughing before saying.
"Because beneath all that muscles and power, you are a coward." Esdeath said as Budo fumed in anger at her accusation, "But I couldn't blame you. I have attained a reputation as the strongest and biggest bitch in the Capital that if I wasn't so busy with leading my soldiers to battle and wasting time with my 'hobby', I could have everything I want by just a simple word. Not Honest. Not the Child Emperor. And not even you, Supreme Commander, can have the audacity to order me around. Not when I still carry the title of the Empire's Strongest." Esdeath grin with pride at her title before she gives a soft smile, "But I digress. As much as I want to battle you, I will do so when you want Asmodeus' mercy. Because believed me, as much as I question him, he will be merciful to those who truly deserved and under his rule, he will grant you redemption just as he did to me. And before you could scoff and think that this is nothing more than a trick, I am actually being sincere here. Just as Asmodeus wouldn't want to see someone so great be a waste of potential." She then outstretched her hand to him before saying, "So, what do you say, Bu-"
Unfortunately, she was interrupted when Budo just charge at her with his electrified gauntlet punch with a furious look on his face.
Esdeath however, thought quickly and summoned a hardened wall of ice in front of her as she sported a disappointed look on her face, saying, "Man and their pride. The thing I have to deal with."
With a disappointed shake of her head, the wall of ice started to crack as the fist plow through the hardened ice only for Esdeath to just dodge sideways, avoiding the punch before she grabbed Budo's arm and as the Supreme Commander make a surprise yelp, he was then spin around and around before being thrown at one of the burning buildings.
Esdeath then rubbed her hand before looking at the wreckage before saying, "Is that the best you can do, Supreme Commander Budo?" She said mockingly before Budo comes out from the wreckage, gives a battle cry and charge towards Esdeath again.
Now the two of the strongest the Empire has gotten, one a traitor of strength and love and the other, a loyal dog of discipline and incompetent oversight, clash their weapons against one another as Esdeath smiled in glee while Budo giving only a furious visage.
Esdeath then dodged another strike from Budo as she twirled before giving a thrust upon Budo's thighs.
Budo grunts in pain as he tried to punch her but Esdeath just moved her head sideways to avoid the punch before she twist her body around and delivered a double kick in the face.
Budo backed away as he hold his bloodied nose before he started punching the icicles that are flying towards him and it proves to be not so easy as some icicles have embedded upon some of his body, making him grunt in pain as he tried to pull the icicles off.
"How wasteful of you, Budo. All this strength and it was all wasted to defend rather than to attack." Esdeath said in a faux disappointed manner as Budo continue to glare at her.
"What are you babbling about, traitor? What is so wrong with trying to defend your home?" Budo yelled in anger at Esdeath.
"Honestly, there is nothing wrong, Budo. Your worth in defending the palace itself is admirable but it's too bad that you have been cooped in that palace that you don't know how to fight and use your Teigu so effectively. Because despite your rank, you didn't exactly have any sort of experience in battle, don't you?" Esdeath mocked again and dodged another angry charge from Budo.
Esdeath then lands behind him and said, "There is a difference between you and me, Budo. I am a warrior and you are soldier. A soldier are probably those normal and civilized people who served their respective people in defending, serving or whatever. They are the epitome of discipline, skill and combat but if they even try to neglect their killing intent and focus more on defending, they will become weak, inexperienced and complacent." Budo then started to charge again and tried to punch her but Esdeath just dodged all of the punches with ease, almost as if she is bored about all of these, "The fact that you know only to just punch and attack and that is all it shows your reputation is nothing more than an exaggeration." Esdeath then dodged another punch to the face before twirling herself around and stabbed one of his wrist, earning a scream of pain from Budo.
"You are just like the rest of the parasites of the Empire. You all have become complacent, inexperienced and weak. You can't even take the pain like a true warrior. And that is what I am, Budo. A warrior like no other." Esdeath then started to coat his stabbed wrist in ice before cutting it off, earning a painful scream from Budo as he clutched his stumps.
"You have no idea how much I earned this strength after my clan have all been wiped off and massacred as a sole survivor. I was young and weak. Forced to survive in the outside world full of animals that wants to eat me and people that wants to kill me, rape me or whatever depraved things they could do to me. But I grew, I evolved, I gained strength, experience and being driven by the will and determination to be strong and survive through impossible odds because I refused to be weak. I kill without hesitation. I hunt out of equal rights. And I finally gained the power to bend all weaklings to my heel. My loyalty to the Empire is nothing more than a means to an end. These Teigu I have been drinking is just a bonus. And I earned it by conquering it's futile ways in making me insane." Esdeath then slapped both of her hands together and shards of ice started to appear around her and started to fire upon Budo.
Budo dodged out of the way to avoid the shards but his leg is not so lucky as he kneeled down in pain.
"I am Esdeath, formerly the Empire's Strongest and now, the second in command, the betrothed and the bitch ice queen of the Tartarus Empire. And all will either evolved or die, make their choice." Esdeath declared with her fist started to get covered in a mist of ice.
Budo then glare at her again before he yelled and started firing lightning at Esdeath, intending to electrocute her into a burning hot corpse.
Unfortunately, Esdeath just jump up into the air to avoid the blast until finally, Budo was stabbed in the chest as Budo is now coughing up blood as Esdeath gives him a sadistic smile, "Don't feel so bad..." She said as she tenderly brush his face before ice started forming on his cheeks, "I'm sorry that I have not given you a chance. But then again, that's what you get for being such a child."
Budo didn't have any moment to respond before his body started to get frozen all over until Esdeath then twist his sword and breaking it into pieces.
As Esdeath lands and kicked the ice away, she then gives a breathe of satisfaction before she looked at the horizon to see something appearing.
"Well, well, Honest. To think that you would force the Emperor to bring out that Teigu. Please. As if that will ever help you." Esdeath said mockingly as she watched something gigantic is standing at the center of the Capital.
____________________________________________
Towering over the Capital is a being of impressive size, appearing as an armoured behemoth of epic proportions.
The Ultimate Teigu: Shikoutazer.
The Empire's Trump Card against any and all threats against the Capital.
The very first Teigu created by the Emperor and it is so powerful that only those of the royal bloodline can even wield such a thing of immense strength and power.
"Yes, my emperor. Yes. Use these Teigu to annihilate your enemies. Let all shall suffer for defying against the Empire." The Prime Minister Honest yelled from the palace as he watched the gigantic Teigu walking about.
"Yes, Prime Minister. I shall. SOLDIERS OF THE TARTARUS EMPIRE! YOU HAVE MADE A CARDINAL SIN OF INVADING MY CITY AND GO TO WAR AGAINST MY WILL AND MY EMPIRE! THE TIME HAS COME FOR ME TO DESTROY YOU ALL FOR GOOD! JUDGEMENT WILL BE UPON YOU ALL!" Makoto declared from the cockpit of Shikoutazer at the war that was going on in his Capital.
That was until something appeared in the sky and Makoto watched as a rectangular something appeared, almost like the first time since Asmodeus has made his declaration.
And just like before, Asmodeus' face appeared on the screen and gives only a deadpan, bored and disappointed expression on his face, almost as if facing the towering Teigu to be hardly amazed or intimidated him in the slightest.
"Bold words, Emperor. Were it to be from an adult, it would have been awe-inspiring or at the very least, intimidating. It's too bad that it is coming from a child of all things." Asmodeus said in a deadpan tone.
"YOU! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS SINFUL ACTS OF DEFYING THE EMPIRE!" Makoto yelled in anger at Asmodeus who, again, is hardly phased by it.
"Flattery will not get you nowhere, Emperor Makoto. Besides, you think I'm the one who committed a sin. At least I'm not the one who keeps on being blissfully ignorant of their people being abused, enslaved, raped, tortured and executed and let the corruption fester in your Capital. If I am a demon of perpetual evil and sin can call you out on your sinful ways, then congratulation for you have achieved at being an evil scum." Asmodeus said again to the Emperor.
"W-what... What are you talking about?" Makoto said in a hesitant tone.
"Do not listen to him, my emperor. They are lies. Lies. Lies coming from a demon of all things. Don't listen to him and listen to the one who has been loyal to you from the very beginning." Honest reasoned the Emperor.
"Yes, Emperor. Yes. Listen to your puppet master while ignoring the evidence to the contrary. Tell me, Emperor. Have you ever tried to interact with your people? Have you ever come out from the palace and see the state of your Capital personally? Have you ever think first before you should listen to that fat excrement who is busy eating his food and being fat while you sit on your throne, looking pretty and being a puppet? Oh, and if you think I'm still lying, try and look at this."
The screen started to change and it showed...
"W-what... What is this?" Makoto is now exposed to everything from the Capital.
The rape.
The torture.
The murder.
The public executions.
The enslavement.
Everything is exposed to Makoto himself.
"Don't be fooled by such images, my emperor. They are nothing but lies. Surely something like this would not-" Honest was then cut off when the screen started to show something else.
____________________________________________
"My Emperor. How was your day still in bed? Comfortable, isn't it? Good, good. Especially when I first poisoned you with that drink I gave you, it is nothing short of satisfying. Honestly, my emperor. You should be very careful to trust those that are more than capable of betrayal, more than ever. And one who is envious of all of your power at your disposal, when I finally found the opportunity, I am more than capable of taking it. At the very least, you still have your wife beside you. After I gave her to be nothing but a plaything for my collaborators as a reward for their continued support towards me. Especially when we played the game of 'What is the gender of the baby'. It was a thrilling sight indeed. Oh and don't worry about your little boy. He will make a fine puppet for me to use at my own leisure. Goodbye, my emperor. Now die."
____________________________________________
Makoto watched in abject horror at the sight of Honest doing something to his parents. He then looked at Honest again, saying, "P-Prime Minister.... What did you-AAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!?"
Suddenly, Makoto started to feel something painful is attacking his mind as he clutched his head and get on his knees as he screamed from the pain.
His expression changed to one morphed in anger as he snarled while Honest looked at the giant Teigu and smiled with pride.
"Yes, my emperor. Yes. Destroy the Tartarus Empire for good. Punish Asmodeus for his cardinal sin. Let none shall stop you from commencing your judgement upon the heathens." Honest declared at the top of his lungs as the Shikoutazer gives out an earthshaking roar.
All the while, Asmodeus looked at the scene and just shake his head in disappointed look and said, "Brainwashing. Your evilness can never get so far since I have seen to this day. Honestly, I shouldn't be surprised. I believed that it is time for me bear witness my power. All of my armies of the Tartarus Empire, evacuate the battlefield immediately. It is time I perform my most powerful summon yet." Asmodeus then let the screen fade away as down below, he, alongside an army of Vermin Priests and Blood Mages as they all chanted their alien sounding languages as some draw some sort of large circle on the ground as Asmodeus closed his eyes before chanting, "Demon Summoning: Predator of the Divine - Ahriman."
Asmodeus had chanted, resulting in something big appearing before the massive behemoth of a Teigu.
It looked to be a towering reptilian monster with hardened scales all over it's body, draconian in appearance while sporting multiple serpentine heads with sharp teeth, horns and glowing yellow eyes that also, spew fire as it appeared from thin air and roared with uncontrollable fury and anger all over.
Honest himself have his very jaw drop at the sight of the thing before him, some sort of monster that he couldn't possibly know what kind of Danger Beasts Asmodeus could have possibly tamed.
But he shake his head as he gives a determined growl before saying, "EMPEROR! GIVE THESE BEASTS NO QUARTER! USE EVERYTHING IN SHIKOUTAZER'S ARSENAL HOWEVER YOU CAN! FOR THE SAFETY OF THE EMPIRE, GIVE THESE MISERABLE CREATURE NO MERCY!" He ordered the Child Emperor as Makoto then roared up into the air and charge forth towards Ahriman himself.
Shikoutazer then fired a volley of missiles from his back and lower torso as it fly straight towards Ahriman.
Ahriman then reeled all its head and let out a loud roar that pushed the missiles away from, firing them only on other directions instead.
Shikoutazer then started to fire mortars from its shoulder pads, firing at Ahriman in equal velocity as the demonic monstrous, hydra-like creature continue to run towards the giant Teigu.
The mortar hit it's mark as Makoto smiled while Honest grin in a victorious pride.
Only for the smoke to clear up to see that Ahriman is alright, much to their shock before he continued to charge towards Shikoutazer.
"J-J-JUST DIE ALREADY!" Makoto yelled in frustration as Shikoutazer started charge up something from its chest and fire a powerful red laser beam that fired upon Ahriman itself.
Honest smiled once again as victory is finally at hand. Only for some sort of portal to appear in front of Ahriman, much to his shock as the portal finally closes after the beam has ended.
Makoto himself also looked shocked and unbeknownst to him, a portal above Shikoutazer appeared and it resulted in the giant Teigu get harmed by its own laser, damaging it for good.
Makoto screamed in pain as whether the pain had synchronized with him or the feeling of the Shikoutazer being engulfed by super heated beam that's as hot as the sun itself just cooked it's pilot from the inside, the pain from it all has made Makoto finally realized what had happened.
"Wh-what... What is... What is happening?" Makoto looked around before he saw Ahriman looked like it was about to fire an attack that will destroy him and his Teigu for good.
But instead of being frightened, he then looked calmly at his impending doom as he sigh in resignation.
"EMPEROR! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR! BOLSTER YOUR DEFENSE FROM HIS ATTACK! QUICKLY!" Honest ordered the Emperor but instead of complying, he was then responded with...
"Shut up."
Honest looked with widened eyes at what the Emperor just said as Shikoutazer just stand there like the statue, not reacting to the danger it was about to be wrought upon him.
"W-what?"
"You hear me, asshole. Shut the fuck up, you filthy murderer. You corrupt piece of shit. Shut the fuck up before I crush you for daring to speak to me after what you did." Makoto said, his tone laced in anger and resignation.
"Emperor, don't tell me you believe in those lies-" Honest is interrupted when a Shikoutazer started to smash his fist in front of him, making him fall to his back as he looked up to see the angry glare of Shikoutazer himself upon him.
"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT... UP!" Makoto yelled in anger as he started to manipulate Shikoutazer to smash where Honest is as the Prime Minister has gotten memo and run away with his tails tucked between his legs into the Royal Palace.
Whether he succeeds or not, Makoto then looked to see Ahriman is finally finished charging up its attacks and fire a large and powerful beam of energy as it flies towards Shikoutazer.
As the beam gets closer, Makoto could only closed his eyes as he face his death with dignity.
All the while saying, "Mother... Father.... I'm sorry..." The Child Emperor said sadly with a tear in his eyes as he, alongside the giant Teigu, is engulfed in a devastating explosion of epic proportions.
Ahriman then watched the wrecked Teigu once again before it roared in victory and disappeared in red embers.
Asmodeus looked up into the horizon to see his summoning of Ahriman has trump over the ace of the Empire's hole as Shikoutazer, the once powerful Teigu of a freaking mech of all things, has become nothing but pile of wrecked debris in the Capital.
"Abaddon, report." Asmodeus didn't need to turn around as Abaddon has just land behind him and kneeled before him.
"My Lord, our victory against the Empire is ever closer. All that is left is the Prime Minister himself. Shall I ready my detachment to terminate him for good?" Abaddon said in a dutiful tone.
"No need, Abaddon. I have given my word and I am not going to back it out. Besides, as much as Honest deserved a fate worse than death as I am going to enjoy murdering and torturing him for all he has done, we should leave the true 'heroes' of these show a chance of cathartic justice." Asmodeus said as he gives a smirk across his face.
____________________________________________
Honest is now running as fast as he can into the Royal Palace to get to the safety of the Throne Room.
As much as Honest thinks that would be a lost cause, he also know that there is a secret emergency escape entrance to escape these destroyed city and lived again for the next day.
He sigh in disappointment that he will no longer have any freedom and power at his disposal but so long as he is still alive, it doesn't matter.
So what if he had failed, he will win the next time. And he will not make the same mistake ever again.
Finally reaching the familiar big door of the throne room, Honest then pushed the door to open and while having a difficult time, he finally opened it and get inside frantically.
Only...
"Well, well. Look who it is everyone. The little piggy has finally returned for the slaughter. Hehehehe."
Honest heard a female voice and he looked in shock to see, filling up the majority of the Throne Room, are an army of Revolutionary Army actually waiting for him.
And not just the Revolutionary Army but also Night Raid themselves, who stood with the Revolutionary Army as they all ready their respective Teigu in tow.
And others as well if he could remember.
Akame, Kurome, Mine, Sheele, Leone, Seryu Ubiquitous, Lubbock, Bulat, Chelsea, Susanoo, Bols, Liver, Run, Wave and finally, the former General of the Empire herself, Najenda were all standing with the Revolutionary Army, glaring at the Prime Minister as Honest quiver in fear.
Honest tried to escape but he heard the door has been closed and he is now at the mercy of everyone that wants to kill him.
"Well, who wants to get first dibs, huh? I sure would." Leone said as she clasped her clawed hands together.
"Normally, what we are about to do is barbaric but after the fact that you hired that clown, I'll make an exception." Run said while readying his wings.
"Yeah. We do." Wave said while crunching his armoured hands together.
"Hmph, so this is the Prime Minister. Damned he is so fat and ugly. Isn't that right, Sheele?" Mine mocked him as Sheele nod in agreement.
"This time, true justice will be brought upon you. For lying to us. For making me commit those acts of evil in the name of false justice, I am going to fucking rip and tear you apart, piece by piece." Seryu said in anger as she whipped out her gun tonfas as Koro, her biological Teigu gets enlarged and roared.
"Eliminate." Akame said as she unsheathe her Murasame.
"Don't forget to leave some for me, big sister. He will make a good stress relief." Kurome said as she whipped out her Yatsufasu.
"Time to do what a true man has got to do." Bulat said as he ready his spear.
"Well said, my friend." Liver said as he ready his Teigu.
"I am not regretting this." Bols said while aiming his Rubicante at Honest.
"This is over, Honest. This is where you are going to die. For all of the crimes you have committed against the innocent themselves, it's time to face the consequences of your actions. Now face your punishment like a real man. Although, you are from a 'real man', am I right?" Najenda said mockingly as everyone just rolled their eyes at Najenda's attempt at a joke, "Seriously? You people have no humour."
"We do. We just don't think you're funny." Susanoo said, much to Najenda's face being laced with betrayal.
"D-don't come any closer." Honest then tried to take out something from his pocket, "I am not going to go down that easily. Just... Ugh... Where is it?" Honest tried to fish out something only to hear some sort of... meow?
He looked in front to see a cat, a Marg Panther, just nibble his own Teigu as it mewled cutely before it turned into something in a speck of white smoke, to see none other than Chelsea just twirling his Teigu around her finger and giving a mischievous grin.
"Thank you for that, nya." Chelsea said mischievously.
Honest looked in horror as he was disarmed before snarling in anger, "YOU! YOU ALL FILTHY TROGLODYTES! YOU DARE TO TREAT ME LIKE THESE! I AM THE TRUE RULER OF THE EMPIRE! BY MY EFFORT, I WILL DO WHATEVER THE FUCK I WANT! IF I WANT YOU ALL TO TREAT ME WITH RESPECT, THAN I WANT IT! NOW BOW TO-AAAGGGHHH!?" Honest's mad ranting is interrupted as Lubbock just ensnared his neck with his Cross Tails, shutting him up for good.
"Shut up, pig. We don't want to hear it. So, boss. What are we going to do?" Lubbock said to Najenda as she gives smile before saying.
"Everyone. It was said here that Honest here can live even longer because of a special training or whatever. So..." Najenda then cracked her neck before saying, "Let's dig in."
And with that, the only sound in the Throne Room are the screams of the one who had corrupted the great Empire and suffered for all eternity.
And thus ends the Dark Age of Corruption.

"Thus the story ends as mankind's evil have been wiped off from the face of the Earth. And in its place is a demon of all things. But contrary to what people believed, all the people are now living an age of peace and prosperity, where they have evolved to become something much more. Something better. Thus ends the Dark Age of Corruption and begins... The Age of the Nine Hells."

And that is a wrap.
Let me tell you folks, I have never written this long since it was only a few times I have written but I have succeeded with flying colours.
Leave a like down below as we now delve deeper into another omake. One that has a warning like this '🌶' so be warned.
Anyway, goodbye my readers.
And farewell.
