"Another 100,000?"
"Hmm, I wonder where they recruited these strong men from."
"Hey, wouldn't killing all 1.3 million people be a huge help to you?"
“Very big.”
"Then kill them all."
One million three hundred thousand precious lives were so casually decided to be lost or alive.
Kong Yang and Esdeath never took this so-called 1.3 million-strong army seriously.
Leaving aside Kong Yang, Esdeath alone, after becoming Kong Yang's queen, being reborn as a demon god, and possessing magic and dark power, has greatly increased her strength.
Especially after being strengthened time and again, General Ice Storm is now capable of commanding an army all by herself.
"By the way, your world seems sparsely populated, with only a few people, totaling no more than a hundred."
Esdeath looked at Kong Yang and said that she had already been to the small world.
Others tried Ais and the others, as well as the monster girls 'collected' by Kong Yang in the small world.
Esdeath didn't see anything wrong with this. As a believer in the law of the jungle, Esdeath admired the strong. Since Kong Yang was powerful, it was only natural for him to have many wives and concubines.
If Esdeath is stronger than Kong Yang, then she will conquer Kong Yang and be the only woman allowed to be by his side.
However, now that she has been conquered and has become Kong Yang's kin, Esdeath has no objection to it. She simply sees herself as Kong Yang's possession, nothing more.
"What do you want to do?"
"Well then, since this world is going to end anyway, why don't we take some people with us?"
"Hmm? Take some people with you?"
Kong Yang had considered Esdeath's suggestion, but at this stage, he did not intend to develop the small world into a real 'world'.
Most importantly, those currently in the small world are all Kong Yang's private possessions.
Kong Yang wouldn't allow it if a lot of people were to be sent in, even if there was only a small chance. If they were to become involved in any scandals, it would be a stain that Kong Yang could never erase.
Others are fine, but those monster girls, Kong Yang is using his 'kidneys' instead of his heart, so he really can't handle those who mess around.
What do you want to say?
"What I'm trying to say is that we should bring some children into a small world and nurture them from a young age."
"child?"
"Yes."
"No, let's forget it. They're just ordinary people, they're not worth anything."
In the end, Kong Yang rejected Esdeath's idea. If it were in the previous world, Kong Yang might have been willing to collect some young monster girls, but for ordinary people in this world, frankly, it was meaningless.
Even if they are trained from a young age, their strength will be limited when they grow up. In addition, Kong Yang does not want to bring too many people into the small world in the short term.
Esdeath, who was rejected, did not rise, but was only slightly disappointed.
Esdeath made this suggestion with the aim of personally training and cultivating an army in Kong Yang's world—a powerful army that would be absolutely loyal to Kong Yang.
Once I travel to other worlds, I can lead this army to conquer those worlds.
Unfortunately, Kong Yang rejected this suggestion.
Soon, after getting dressed, a new day began.
'Swish~'
As soon as they stepped out of the palace, two figures appeared in front of Kong Yang and Esdeath, one in front of the other.
"Queen Esdeath, Lord Kong Yang, the scouts have brought back the latest intelligence: the Revolutionary Alliance is starting to stir and is predicted to head towards the capital in the next few days."
"Oh? You couldn't hold back anymore?"
Kong Yang was somewhat surprised. He had expected that they would need to ponder for a while longer.
It seems that the addition of Sheila and others has given them great confidence, which is why they couldn't resist.
"Lord Kong Yang, shall we...?"
Chi Tong hesitated for a moment while looking at Kong Yang before finally speaking.
Although Kong Yang had already told them that they didn't need to get involved in this war, she was still a little worried.
This is an army of 1.3 million, plus several Imperial Arms users. Even if Esdeath possesses the strength to fight against 10,000 or 100,000 men, she is still far inferior to an army of one million.
The saying "many ants can kill an elephant" may be an exaggeration, but it is not entirely untrue.
"No need. The hunters can stay in the capital to guard against sneak attacks from Sheila and the others."
"But~"
"No buts, this is an order."
"Yes."
Akame lowered her head, but anyone could see that she was not resigned to her fate.
Looking at her sister, Kuroko felt a little uncomfortable. As the saying goes, love can turn into hate. The reason she was unwilling to forgive her sister was because she 'deeply loved' her sister, which is why she was so painful when she was betrayed.
"Queen Esdeath, may we accompany you?"
At this moment, Kurohime spoke up. She didn't require all the hunters to go, but she wanted to go and bring her older sister Akame along.
Chapter Thirty-Four: Esdeath Confronts a Million-Strong Army!
Kuroko's words surprised both Kong Yang and Esdeath.
At the same time, Akame looked at her younger sister in surprise.
"You want to go?"
"Yes."
"can."
Even Kong Yang looked at Esdeath in surprise.
Akame and Kurome looked at Esdeath with surprise. Neither of them had held out much hope, but Esdeath had actually agreed.
Esdeath, what do you plan to do?
"We're just going together; the battlefield is still mine."
"Ok."
Kong Yang understood; she was taking two audience members with her.
However, since Esdeath had already made her decision, he naturally wouldn't say anything more.
Moreover, it wouldn't be bad to let these two sisters see what real 'power' is.
-------------------Time Divider-----------------
And so, three days later, the revolutionary army, the alien race, and the allied forces of Sheila and others set off, marching in a mighty procession toward the capital.
Having received advance notice from Laura about the Revolutionary Army Alliance's actions, Kong Yang immediately led Esdeath and the Akame and Kurome sisters to a plain outside the Imperial Capital.
There is only one way to march into the capital; large-scale marches are simply impossible in other places.
Above them, a golden flying boat called Vimana hovered, carrying four people—Kong Yang and his companions—who were waiting for the arrival of the Revolutionary Army Alliance.
'Rumble~'
With a cloud of dust and the sound of marching, a massive, dark army appeared in the distance.
You can tell from their clothing that most of them are soldiers from various ethnic groups, with dark skin and dressed in clothing similar to that of Native Americans and other ethnic minorities.
Among them were a large number of soldiers wearing armor, which, unsurprisingly, should be the revolutionary army.
The sight of a million-strong army marching is still incredibly awe-inspiring.
This was the first time Kong Yang had ever seen such a thing. However, looking at the densely packed army, Kong Yang really wanted to drop an ancient nuclear warhead, wondering if it could 'nuclear' these guys.
Meanwhile, in the rear of the allied forces, the leaders of the revolutionary army and various foreign tribes were all gathered.
"We're about to enter the Imperial Capital's territory. How are the spatial Imperial Arms preparations going?"
The leader of the southern tribes looked at Sheila beside him, wanting to get the answer he wanted.
"Don't worry, everything is ready. However, my strength is limited; I can only teleport a maximum of one thousand people."
"A thousand men are enough. This is a surprise attack. All we need to do is throw the capital into chaos. When we bring our troops to the city gates, everything will be fine."
"Of course."
Looking at these guys, Sheila's face was full of mockery.
Teleporting a thousand people? How is that possible? Does he really think Teigu users are invincible? He's just talking nonsense.
This time, all he has to do is sit back and watch the fight unfold. Whether the Empire or the Revolutionary Army loses, it will be a good thing for him.
Having acquired a spatial imperial armor, Shira believed herself to be invincible from the very beginning.
Looking at these people, Sheila smiled slightly and quietly disappeared from the group.
Although he was arrogant, he wasn't stupid; war was an incredibly cruel place.
On this side, looking at the mighty million-strong army, Kong Yang looked at Esdeath.
"How about it?"
"Leave it to me, this will be the most exhilarating war in history."
"Then I'll be waiting for you to bring me victory."
"what!"
After saying that, Esdeath jumped off Vimana.
Akame looked at Kong Yang with a puzzled expression, having gleaned some information from their conversation.
'Waiting for you to bring me victory'
This sounds like Kong Yang is in a dominant position, rather than Esdeath, who has become the Empress of the Empire.
Now, Akame was curious about the relationship between Kong Yang and Esdeath.
"Hey, Akame, watch closely and see what a true powerhouse looks like."
"Yes."
Akame's crimson eyes also looked down, where Esdeath stood alone, facing a million-strong army.
To fight against an army of millions single-handedly is simply unbelievable.
Even a thousand years ago, at the height of the empire's power, with its strong army and the entire nation's resources dedicated to hunting down the world's most dangerous species, the Imperial Arms were forged in the process.
You have to understand, the super dangerous species are the most terrifying beings in the world, yet so many of them have still been hunted down by the Empire.
This shows that quantity can outweigh quality when it reaches a certain level.
"Report, a person has been spotted ahead."
Esdeath was naturally discovered by the marching army, and the news was reported up the chain of command.
"Hmm? We've spotted someone up ahead? Who is it?"
"Judging from this, it should be Her Majesty the Queen of the New Empire, Esdeath."
"what?"
At that moment, everyone was shocked.
Esdeath, everyone present, even those who had never met her, had heard of her fearsome reputation.
Especially after she became the queen of the empire, she became a thorn in their side.
"There must have been an intelligence leak. There's a spy. How many people did she bring?"
"There was only her."
"What? She's alone? Are you sure?"
"Yes, because the surrounding area is all plains, it is basically impossible to hide troops."
