Chapter 30: Ally or Foe
Chapter from before...
"Well done, The power of your Teigu is quite impressive, you piqued my interest, but now I will be taking that Teigu from you," Najenda says with a serious tone, her one violet eye looked deadly and dark. What was she planning? Did Takashi's power scare everyone in Night Raid, did they all sense fear for the first time? Did Najenda want to control Takashi? Either way all Takashi did was slightly laugh at Najenda's request.
"Never," He clenched the handle of Ryuyami, he wouldn't let anyone take his weapon.

"Do you even know just how powerful that Teigu is? How to control it? It took years for Akame to master her Teigu and yet she hasn't even fully mastered it, the same with everyone else here who wields a Teigu. Do you know the origins of the Teigu?" Najends says to Takashi while reaching out her hands, she was about to take it from Takashi, for some reason just by looking at Ryuyami Najenda had seen the same power as the Ice General, however, it was the opposite. The terrifying look on Takashi's fiery red eyes made Najenda shiver, Takashi's bloodthirsty eyes had reminded of her of the Ice General. Najenda was on edge, she was thinking what if Takashi wasn't on her side? Would he slaughter everyone in Night Raid with his powerful dragon flame Teigu?
"I do know the origin of Teigu, about a thousand ago the Emperor who built the Great Empire was afraid and weak, he wanted to defend his Nation for all eternity from the people who opposed him, so he gathered materials from S-Class Danger Beast(Such as scales and teeth) and rare metals such as Orichalcum and he hired many scientists and 'great minds' throughout the world to make strong weapons and defenses. The results of their effort were weapons of mass destruction. The Emperor's wealth and fortunate allowed him to create and form 48 powerful weapons called Imperial Arms. Each of them are equipped with powerful abilities, some are able to wipe out entire armies, but a large Civil War cause half of the Teigu to be scattered across the lands and eventually some were destroyed during the massive battle," Takashi said all this with a stern and serious voice as he stared down everyone Night Raid who was looking at him with surprised faces.
They didn't know that Takashi knew so much about Teigu and they were also astounded that he actually knew how to wield a Teigu. Well, they had the same faces when they saw Takashi fight with Bulat, even Sayo was speechless and her eyes were kind of shaking with terror from seeing how powerful Takashi was during his battle with Bulat.
"You know a lot don't you, so who really are you? Do you work for the Empire?" Najenda asked as she smoked her cigar to ease her nerves, Takashi was kind of intimidating her.
"Like I said I just some villager, who wants to become a Legend," Takashi replied in a cold tone, this kind of a half-truth, who he really was something they would never understand. In his past life he was such a brutal assassin that everyone he killed never had the chance to escape or think, he killed so fast and precisely its was like his targets never existed. For fuck sakes he was able to even kill a target with a fucking fork! He could kill anyone with anything.
A current of strong winds blows his shoulder-length raven black and silver hair to the side revealing his fiery red eyes which were on alert. Any slight move from Najenda taking his Teigu and he would kill her without a second thought or mercy. Ryuyami meant a lot to him, after all it was his first weapon he gained in this new world, he had slain so many powerful A-Class Danger Beast and even Empire Soldiers with this sword, what's more, he killed Aria and her family with this sword, the people who tortured and killed Ieysau, his comrade. Anyone who dared to take his Teigu would die by his hands and anyone who is dumb enough to grip its handle would be consumed by powerful dragon flames and turn to ash in a matter of seconds. They wouldn't even have time to scream or feel pain, they would just cease to exist!
"Do you work for the General of the Empire?" Najenda asked in a deep growly tone. She didn't want to speak that vile 'woman's name'. And most diffidently she didn't want the vile woman to have such a powerful Teigu such as Ryuyami at her grasp!
"I don't work for anyone. Didn't I already tell you that," Takashi gritted his teeth, not with anger, but annoyance this 'talk' was taking up his time to cultivate with Ryuyami and train his other 4 Wishes.
"I guess I have to take your word, just know if you make any slight move to betray us you will be killed by everyone in Night Raid, " Najenda breathes heavily and buxom bubble breasts jiggle from within her tight business suit. "But I really want to hold your Teigu and inspect it," She rubs her chin.
"Tch. None of you can kill me," Takashi snarls at Najenda when she talks about him betraying Night Raid and Night Raid taking him down altogether.
Akame quickly goes around Takashi's half-naked body and starts sniffing him up and down. She was smelling his scent to see if he was lying or telling the truth, her nose was keen enough to sense someone else's scent. Her eyes widen when she looked Takashi' slashed cheeks slowly regenerate in front of very own eyes, "How did you survive Murasame's cursed poison?" Akame asked him she gripped her katana's handle she still didn't trust Takashi.
"Its a secret," Takashi walks away and straps on another black samurai robe that was nearby the battle arena Temple Shrine over his sweaty upper-body. He himself didn't even know how he survived her 'one-hit-kill' sword. But he thinks he knew why maybe just maybe during his fight Ryuyami had and his own activated Dragon-Force Primordial Dragon bloodline had protected him.
Akame's dark red eyes open even wider when she heard this, but what's more, she was even more surprised and shocked when she smelt a familiar scent around Takashi.
'That can't be...There is no way,' Akame gritted her teeth, something triggered her and a flame of rage bursts out from her tiny body, a reddish aura surrounded her body, the 'aura of death'. Akame had never really understood Takashi, during each battle with him(two times one at Aria's mansion and one at her room when she was only wearing a black bra and panties), Takashi' sword fighting style was impossible to read from how fast he was, but they're also was something strange about Takashi. When Akame fought him both times, his sword slash techniques reminded her of own skills! Not only that, now that she had sniffed up close, mostly his sweat and skin, she had sensed a scent she once knew, the scent of- someone close to her...
Akame goes wild and suddenly she stabs Takashi right in his chest with Murasame, her sharp big blood-red eyes were filled with rage and anger, her eyes scowled, something had triggered her to kill Takashi!
"Brother!" Tatsumi's screams out.
"Takashi!" Sayo cries out.
"Akame... What are you doing!?" Leone gasped in disbelief.
Everyone was shocked, had Akame lost her mind? What's more had Akame killed Takashi!?
