The Night Raid base was west of where I fought Esdeath, about halfway to the base I met the entire Night Raid, they had apparently decided to come to my aid.
- Now let's get back to the base before the crazy ice woman comes and freezes us all. - I said, heading towards the base, and the whole squad turned and ran after me.
- How was the fight with Esdeath? - Najenda asked on the run.
- I have enough defence not to die from that ice bitch, but the attack power is not enough, though I didn't even have time to take out my rifle before she threw ice blocks at me. - I answered, and at the same time my body inside the armour continued to freeze and get to normal temperature.
- Now that Esdeath is in the capital, the Night Raid needs to be much more careful, I guarantee that the Prime Minister will have her eliminating us soon. - Najenda said to the squad, -But we should not show that we are afraid of her, Leone, do we have missions in the capital? - Najenda looked at Leone for a moment.
- After you went to test weapons on the monsters, the falcon brought a message from the revolutionary army headquarters asking them to eliminate two officials, the Kobare brothers, they are the Prime Minister's cronies and in fact they do most of the work for the Prime Minister.
- Great, then I'll go with Gin and do the job. - replied Najenda as we approached the base.
- I had other plans for the night... eh, now with the enemy at my side, I won't be able to rest properly. And after the fight with Esdeath, I better understand how I need to improve my armour, so that it can not harm me at all, and also need to go hunting for strong monsters to collect the necessary materials for improvement. - I said as I entered the base. Najenda still decided to reward me a little for my whip sword and for surviving the fight with Esdeath.
- I was really scared when you decided to fight that sadistic woman. - Najenda said, after kissing me, we were making love on the couch, the girl was sitting on top of me, giving me the opportunity to kiss her and suck her breasts, which I was doing now, - And you know, when I told her about your fight with Esdeath, Shelly reacted very strongly, everyone else was worried, but Shelly ran to save you, even forgetting her Teygu. - Najenda looked down at me as I licked her nipple.
- Shelly the day before yesterday suddenly asked me to kiss her...and I honoured her request, and yesterday I gave her a cunny. While you were resting, I cheated on you a little bit. - I answered honestly, and like a naughty kitten I tried not to look at Najenda's eyes, but kept licking her nipples.
- ... Hmm... I can't admit that this news is unpleasant for me, but expected. - Najenda took my head with both hands and looked into my eyes, -I'm a little angry... but it would be stupid to be jealous of you, considering all the things you said before. And we don't live in a time to care about silly things like monogamy. I've been on the brink of death more than once, Shelly risks her life all the time too, and she deserves love as much as I do. If she's willing to be the third person in our relationship, I'm not gonna forbid it.
- Thank you. - I smiled guiltily.
- What can I take from you? You are a young guy, and they often start thinking with their lower head when they see a beautiful girl. - Najenda kissed me, and during the kiss, she tried to bite me several times in revenge for my infidelity. Since we had a mission tonight, Najenda didn't let me push her too hard, but seeing that I still wanted to, she decided to call Shelly into the room to have a serious talk with her and then let me satisfy myself with her. When Shelly entered the room I was sitting naked behind the screen and the girl was greeted by Najenda.
- So, Shelly, let's talk about the fact that you decided to seduce Gene. - Najenda said sternly, and Shelly, feeling guilty, lowered her head.
- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to... or rather I did, but... I'm sorry, I won't do it again. - Shelly was almost crying.
- Shelly, you've done something very wrong, so get undressed, now Gin will punish you and take your virginity, and I'll see to your punishment. - Najenda smiled, looking at Shelly's face, who didn't quite know what was going on, only when I came out from behind the screen and waved my finger at her, Shelly blushed and began to undress, glancing at Najenda and my groin.
- I'm ready to take my punishment. - said a naked Shelly.
- Well, now I'm going to stake you so you don't seduce other guys. - Najenda brought Shelly over to me, and after a little thought, began to put Shelly on my cock. Taking my device in her hand, Najenda placed it under Shelly's back hole and watched with a smile as the purple haired girl opened her eyes wide, realising that Najenda meant anal virginity.
- Well, did you think the punishment would be pleasant? - Najenda asked contentedly, seeing Shelly squirm as she pushed her ass harder and harder on my cock.
- You have sadistic tendencies too, don't you, Najenda? - I asked, pulling Shelly closer to me, taking her voluminous breasts in one hand and placing my other hand on her groin, I began to treat her back hole so it wouldn't hurt so much when my device forcibly expanded her anus.
- Well, I'm a woman and I couldn't just leave it at that, I had to get a little revenge on that seductress. - 'Come on, Gin, punish Shelly's arse.
- Yeah, punish my arse, Gin. - Shelly said relaxing on me, she was fully able to accept me into her after I started helping her with magic, she felt no pain now, only pleasant sensations.
I laid Shelly down on the bed, and looking at her happy joyful face, I couldn't help but kiss her, and then began to actively punish her.
- I think the punishment went wrong. - Najenda said, and sat down at her desk to write and read her reports, occasionally glancing in my direction where the punishment was going on and Shelly was moaning loudly in pleasure.
Najenda had plenty of work to do and while she was doing it Shelly and I continued to work her anal, only when it was time to go on a mission with Najenda did I come out of the back hole of a tired but very satisfied Shelly.
- Hmmm, maybe I should try that with you too? - Najenda asked as she walked over to Shelly's lying back and ran her finger around the anus ring, 'Hmm, you stretched her out pretty good. - Najenda pulled her finger out of Shelly's arse and licked it clean of the seed I had poured into the girl.
- After a rest like that, it's good to get some work done. - I got dressed for the mission.
We left Shelly lying in Najenda's room. When we left, everyone looked at us strangely, Lubbock with envy and jealousy, Leone with resentment, Akame was hungry as always and was looking at the steak, Mein was asleep, and I tried not to look at Bulat, lest that little friend get any ideas.
We went to the capital with Najenda, and got into the Kobare family mansion, where the brothers who were helping the prime minister lived. Najenda wounded one brother with a sword, and in three seconds he was dying of poison, while the other she tied with a whip and began to interrogate him, crushing his bones with her right hand so that he would answer questions more actively. After the interrogation she killed him too, but I had the task of eliminating the mansion's guards, and when I cleared the house, I left alive only a few maids and the young son of one of the brothers, whom I handed over to the maids. The kid's father was a jerk, but I don't kill children. When I'd sorted it all out, I came to Najenda.
- Gin, do you mind doing some more work tonight? I've got the names and addresses of some other people whose deaths would really hurt the Prime Minister. - Najenda asked.
- For your sake, I'll gladly walk round the capital at night and cut out a few more corrupt officials.
- After that, we will have to lay low for a while, for they will be looking for us very actively. - Najenda smiled, and then we set out to terrorise the officials close to the Prime Minister.
Najenda interrogated all our targets and learnt some useful information, such as that the current Prime Minister Honest wanted to eliminate some officials who did not support him. We did not find out exactly which officials, only that one of those officials was the past Prime Minister Chowri, and that he was to be eliminated in four days, when Chowri would be returning to the capital to talk to the Emperor and enlighten him about the current Prime Minister's misdeeds.
Esdeath, who had recently arrived in the capital, took with her only her most loyal friends from the north, the rest of the army remained in the north to watch over the subjugated tribes there. Esdeath was the one who was asked by the Prime Minister to remove the officials who were interfering with him, including the previous Prime Minister. Esdeath sent her 'Fallen' - three of her subordinates, who were personally and brutally selected and given to Teiga - on this mission.
We also learn that Esdeath was assigned to take out the Night Raid, and asked her to assemble a squad of Teigu owners, because only a Teigu owner can kill another Teigu owner. Honest promised to think about it, but after tonight, he began to actively search for Teigu owners throughout the empire to gather a squad to eliminate us.
We can't save the other officials because we don't know exactly who to save and when to save them, so I'll go save the past prime minister, but before that I decided to go hunting for materials. I went to Africa, to the place I was interested in in the first place was about eleven thousand kilometres, if you get on land. In armour, spending a lot of energy, I can run at a speed of two mahas, that's about two and a half thousand kilometres per hour, and it took me more than three hours to get to the African continent.
The climate of North Africa was deserted, it did not differ from that of Putra, except that the monsters here were a little different, those that are more peculiar to Africa, all kinds of lions, rhinoceroses, giraffes, and all as usual not less than eight metres. The most formidable predators, and this is twenty-metre lions, I scored for meat for Leone, if she eats their hearts and flesh, it will definitely become stronger.
However, the most interesting thing was waiting for me in Central Africa, that area for some reason looked like Hell on Earth. The northern desert smoothly passed into a lava wasteland, and after that into the area where magma was constantly flowing from volcanoes. Judging from the beasts, this situation had been going on for years, as the lava monsters meant that high temperatures and lava rivers were commonplace. In addition to the monsters, there were also people... kind of people, if in the northern part of Africa lived black-skinned blacks, then here lived some black-skinned unfriendly horned devils. By eating the local fauna, the humans mutated into some kind of demons that are very comfortable in these conditions. I once ran into the local population, so they clearly wanted to eat me, and I had to shoot them off.
I came to Africa because of the monsters that could generate heat, I will need their abilities to counteract the Esdeath ice. On the border of northern and central Africa, I came across a twenty metre tall monster, originally a lion, but eating fire monsters turned it into a fire manticore, it was almost exactly what I was looking for, I'd rather have a lava tiger, but if I can't find one, a manticore will do.
I met only a few of them, but there were many other fiery monsters, and when I got to a huge volcano with magma pouring out of its cracks, I found a lava tiger, a beautiful twenty-five metre long one, and probably tasty.
In general, the local monsters tasted very, very sharp, I would even say burning, because of the fiery internal energy, the tiger was no exception, but it was pleasantly sharp.
This huge volcano, most likely in my world was known as Kilimanjaro volcano, in my world it was about six kilometres high, and there was even snow on its top, here it was obviously higher, about ten kilometres high, and there was snow on the top. At the top of this volcano I met only one dragon, but a strange one, it was quite small, only about six metres long, but it had two heads, one spewing lava and the other frost, there was a sword sticking out of the dragon's back, apparently someone had tried to kill this dragon and was not quite successful. I decided to try my luck too... and it was like I was back in a fight with Esdeath, who had learnt to control fire in addition to ice.
Despite its size, the dragon was very strong, and again, because of its size, I couldn't just jump into its mouth and kill it from the inside. I damaged the dragon's wings in the beginning, so he had to fight me to the death, either mine or his. I killed the dragon, I have more experience in hunting monsters than I have in fighting humans, but after that dragon, I'll have to make my armour almost anew, because he almost destroyed it... although I have the knowledge and materials, so it's not a big loss, with new materials the armour will be resistant to both cold and heat. And that sword sticking out of the dragon's back is probably soaked in its fire and ice energy, and if I forge it, I can make myself a great blade.
If you think about it, a thousand years ago, when the Empire created Teiga, it sent out hunters to capture rare and dangerous monsters, and judging by the design of the sword, it's from the Empire, so it turns out that this dragon is at least a thousand years old, and the sword was soaked in its energy for about a thousand years.
Anyway, I decided to end the hunt at this point, because it was a bit long. I decided to take a shortcut by water, which would be a couple of thousand kilometres less... I would have been better off going back the way I'd come, because when I encountered a huge five-headed hydra in the sea that was at least half a kilometre in size, it would have taken me longer than the extra couple of thousand kilometres.
Monsters usually have two vulnerable places, the brain and the heart; the hydra had five heads, as well as five brains, but the heart was one. When I got inside the mouth of one of the heads, I immediately went to the heart, and found there something similar to a heart, only incredibly huge and by the look of it consisted of red crystal. I cut the heart out, and then the hydra was safely dead..... almost died, in time it could have recovered that heart, but at the moment of the monster's weakness my schizophrenia began to absorb the hydra's soul into the domain, it took a while, during which time I managed to cut quite a lot of meat off the hydra. After the soul was absorbed, I continued on my way. This hydra might have been stronger than that two-headed dragon, but its size had played tricks on it here.
I had the task of rescuing the former prime minister from Esdeath's squad, and I almost failed that task. When I got to the place, I found a pile of dead guards who had just been chopped in half, and three characters in black uniforms: one stylish old man, one big guy with an axe, and one small blond kid who was squatting in front of a young blond girl and threatening to cut the skin off her face.
The stylish old man approached the bald old man, who was the former Prime Minister, and he was about to kill him when I appeared, and without slowing down my speed, cut off the heads of all three Fallen.
- Wooh, you made it. - I said, appearing in front of the girl sitting on the ground, and at the same time, I turned around and cut off the head of the last Fallen, who was going to cut off her face, - Sorry, I was late on the hunt. - My armour was almost completely burnt out, so I was now in my normal clothes and used Yin and Yang swords to more effectively cut the heads off the Fallen with both hands.
- You-who are you? - Asked the clearly frightened girl who had a spear lying next to her. The former Prime Minister had a daughter named Spear, a pretty good spearwoman who was trained at the Kouken Temple, so she was obviously the one.
- I'm from the Night Raid, we learnt that on the Prime Minister's orders, General Esdeath's personal thugs were sent after you, so I was sent to rescue you. - I helped a girl up, a very pretty girl, reminds me of Leone.
- You're just in time. - The former prime minister came to me, and having examined the corpses of his thirty guards, sighed deeply.
- There was a Honest spy among your guards, so you would have had to recruit new guards anyway. I'll take Teiga away from your killers and take you to the head of the Night Raid, General Najenda. - I took the axe, the flute, and the ring from the Fallen, and left my mark leaflet and the Night Raid mark leaflet on their corpses.
The axe was called Belvak, it's one of Teigu's weakest, its ability to split into two tomahawks that can be thrown and they return to the owner's hands, that's all.
The ring was called - Black Marlin, it was made from a water dragon, whose design it resembled. It gave the wearer the ability to control water, but it condensed it poorly out of the air, and this Teigu was useful either in rain or in the proximity of a large volume of water.
The flute had a name - Banshee, and by playing it, it was possible to influence people by sound, to put them to sleep, to make them stronger, to strike fear into them, or on the contrary to inspire them.
In general, the last two were not particularly strong Teigu, but it would be interesting to study them.
- Ahem,' the former Prime Minister was surprised when the artefacts disappeared from my hands.
- Get in the carriage, I'll take you to a cabin in the mountains, and we'll have a meeting there, because it would be inexpedient to take you to the base itself. In the capital you better not appear now, or Honest will not be lazy to send for your elimination Demons Rakshasa, and while I will kill them, they will have time to swat you. - I said. And before Spear, the daughter of the former prime minister, got into the carriage, she looked at me and blushed.
