Chapter 36: Night Raid…

~Third POV~

The next day came over to everyone in the mansion and the guards were aware of the new Lord they have and accepted Tatsumi after he holds the documents of his rights that Aria's family gave them their status, title, and land to him.

They accepted it as much when Tatsumi agreed to give them a raise for their payment under the occasion that they train themselves and get a better education from the Noble family library.

When the guards heard this, they were clearly surprised by the demands of their new Lord as the majority of the guards were former Empire Soldiers or recruited muscles with decent kills, they have no education in their lives only experience.

As the head of the guard Gaurry asked in a questioning voice to Tatsumi he got his answer from him with a smirk on his face, "Simple. I don't want any incompetent men under me but as I was made aware that the majority of you have not much education. I decided to let you have the knowledge to learn and get better even with the knowledge you have you can leave with a new set of skills that will be helpful in the future got it!"

With that sentence, the majority of guards were bought over to Tatsumi as there were times to be studying different skills needed or learning more about their lands.

The people that were being treated under Beatrice and Echidna went to leave the area hoping to return to their villages after Tatsumi gives them financial support for their jump start in their life as others pledge to Tatsumi for saving them by being hired under him with their set of skills.

As for the three girls that Tatsumi saved.

Fal took the chance to train with the guards getting better to train herself with Tatsumi himself teaching them to the best of his abilities.

It was better for the weak guards to train against him since it could help them more against someone strong.

Air was busy with cooking the foods with the other maids to have a better skill in cooking and learn medicine to help people next time with Beatrice there eating sweets at times.

Luna was at the library learning everything she could an opportunity to learn more about the current Empire since she was sold off, she wanted to have more knowledge to have a better understanding of what to do in life.

Echidna was in charge of making sure to make sure that the people are studying in her time but otherwise, she created a private workshop where she can begin to build equipment from her old world as well as have the blacksmith create specific parts.

As that was going on for the first day Tatsumi made sure to tell the guards that Night Raid will appear in the building killing them under the assumption that they were the previous family that did the killing.

That made the people feel uncomfortable that the assassins Night Raid that caused problems are coming to kill them off.

But Tatsumi managed to get their attention with a determined voice with Echidna and Beatrice at his side giving out a serious expression, "EVERYONE!! I know that Night Raid is coming but you will leave them to me to handle while you will be guarded by Echidna and Beatrice inside the mansion."

While the rest of the guards were unimpressed Fal, Air, and Luna breathed out a sigh of relief after witnessing Tatsumi's power but not the guards.

But once Tatsumi used his [Yin Magic] [El Shamak] on them they no longer held the power of control of their bodies the spell soon loses effects as the guards now understood where they stand in power.

They soon nodded their heads in agreement after the effects of [El Shamak] fade till it was midnight with everyone in their positions.

Tatsumi was on the outside of the mansion wearing a white shirt, gray hoodie with fur on the hood, blue jeans, and boots.

Beatrice and Echidna were waiting inside the building for the two assassins…

~Tatsumi POV~

Man… the night sky sure is nice today.

[Ping! Erza, Ruby, Toga, and Echidna have now signed up for the chat!]

Ah!

looking at the screen with surprise I quickly sign up to see what was up with them today.

Ruby: Hello everyone how is going tonight.

Erza: Good afternoon everyone it's a pleasure to…

Toga: Tatsumi why are you staring into the night sky expecting… Wait I know this scene?!

Echidna: Yup Toga, it's time for the appearance of them to arrive.

Tatsumi: Pretty accurate their Toga it's time to see Night Raid come.

Erza: I see by the looks of things you seem pretty excited to see where this is going and is it safe to assume that you didn't follow the plot anymore?

Tatsumi: Not anymore since I have the power to change now although I do think to help them out in my own way after all I do owe them for [Incursio] for its help.

Thinking back right now I think I should play the role of supporter to them like a haven in this part of the Capital as well as a place they want to take cover.

Yeah, I think I'll play the supportive role with Night Raid.

Echidna: Yes, it's a bit exciting honestly seeing how these assassins fair although I'm more curious of their Teigu's especially its history with the use of magic to create them I may be able to replicate it if given time.

Oh?

I guess with Echidna's brain and wisdom I have no doubt she would give a chance.

Hmm…

Maybe I should consider stealing one in the future for her to study.

Ruby: Wow so you're finally at this part of the world Tatsumi.

Toga: I for one can't see this now that the MC has some overpowered abilities against them get floored.

Tatsumi: To be honest I want to talk this out but in their line of work they would rather shoot first ask questions later.

Erza: I see that must be a difficult job for you to handle my friend.

Ruby: Yeah, I can't see- TATSUMI LOOK OUT!

Quickly looking up to see a large energy beam almost strike me out of nowhere I was able to avoid it easily but now that attack happens…

Looking at the night sky I soon see a group of people in the sky standing up straight giving me a cold look in their eyes.

Well now the main cast just entered my home, but I see that two are missing from their roster.

No matter.

Because they came to kill in their mission, I guess it doesn't matter if it's wrong but they already knew the people here aren't innocent but that doesn't give them the right to attack me straight out.

Tsk… tsk… tsk…

Very rude of them to assume such things but that didn't matter as I see two people came down falling to the floor making a noticeable dent on the floor.

The first one to fall was Bulat a tall, muscular young man with blue eyes and black hair that he usually wore in a combed-up, heart-shaped pompadour, and before joining Night Raid, he had his hair down.

When not wearing [Incursio] (because I took it), he often donned a black shirt with green shoulders, chest armor, and white pants with black boots and also wore a black leather jacket on top of his usual outfit a few times.

But the next person I see is the main protag for Akame ga Kill Zero Akame herself.

Akame is a young girl with long black hair that reaches down to her knees and red eyes she wears a dark sleeveless tank top with a white collar and a red tie; she wears a red belt that has a red side skirt cover over a black, pleated skirt.

She wears it with long black socks and black shoes. She also wears red gauntlets and black gloves. She sometimes wears a long dark coat in battle but is often seen carrying her Teigu, [Murasame].

I just have to be very careful of Akame [Murasame] since that thing can literally cut souls of people killing them, I should be fine just disarm her weapon then this fight is mine.

Trying to be the peaceful one for this situation I ask them what happened in a friendly manner since I didn't want to come off as hostile, "Hello their members of Night Raid. Akame and Bulat I see that you came and attack the family here but unfortunately for you, I already dealt with them but considering your profession you won't let me go with my life correct?"

Bulat looks at me with a blush on his face which makes me feel very scared for other normal reasons, "Well you do have a cute face there… but I'm afraid to even what you say is true you saw our faces and the guards here are equally as guilty sorry kid."

Akame was the next to respond in a cold voice as she readies herself, "Sorry but you came here at the wrong place and the wrong time… I hope you understand…"

Did I come here to the wrong place and the wrong time?

Laughing towards the duo for a good joke I soon revealed to them in my possession Bulat former weapon [Incursio] in my hands surprising every member as I reply to them, "Ha ha ha ha…! Sorry, that is where you're mistaken here Night Raid it's not that you came here in the wrong place and wrong time…"

With that, I activated it transforming myself into my [1st Evolved Form] surprising Bulat and the members of Night Raid.

After all, they never witnessed the Teigu [Incursio] in its powerful forms before only the armor base form.

Ruby: Oh, this is going to get good. Ah! Echidna you have company!

Echidna: I can see it clearly child don't worry much I have my own fair share of fighting experience thank you very much.

Erza: I agree this is getting to be very interesting to watch and… why do I hear background music?

Toga: (Insert Background Music) Whistle~

When my transformation was done, I readied myself for them with my blade from Erza as I release my [Yin Magic] towards them in a cold tone, "It was more so that you came here at the right time and place for me. [Shamak]!"

Then next a black smoke erupted from me consumed the area turning the battlefield to my advantage.

Although I wished to have met under friendlier circumstances, I guess this was inevitable, but I hope they can see reason when this is over…

Probably after I kick their asses…

Yeah let's go with that idea.
