As night fell, countless stars dotted the dark blue sky. They blinked, as if inviting people to travel in the vast space. The bright moon was like a silver boat sailing in the deep blue sea.

On the streets of the imperial capital, Ouka, with a rosy face, took the bottle of wine in his hand and poured it into his mouth. While drinking, he smiled and greeted some acquaintances on the road, and walked towards the station of the Imperial Guard, followed by Tatsumi with a helpless look on his face.

Since Seleu was summoned to the palace as an imperial weapon user, Tatsumi followed Ouka, the captain of the Imperial Guard. However, Ouka was really good to Tatsumi. Not only did he teach him martial arts, but he also taught him some principles of dealing with people that he had only realized after so many years.

The words that Tatsumi particularly remembers are what Captain Ouka said to him when he was drunk:"Tatsumi, do you know? Not long ago, I did a lot of unforgivable mistakes. It was His Majesty who woke me up. The only purpose of my life now is to atone for the mistakes I have made in my lifetime. You must not make the same mistake as me! Tatsumi."

Not far from the tavern, a guy hidden in a black cloak stopped Ouka and Tatsumi.

"Captain Ouka, I have something to tell you."

Ouka laughed without caring, because his reputation among the people has improved, and many people like this guy in front of him hide their identities and secretly report people who violate the law.

"If anyone wants to report, don't be afraid, just tell me boldly, I will let those who violate the laws of the empire taste the horror of the law."

After hearing Ouka's words full of justice, Leona, who was hiding under the cloak, was slightly stunned. He didn't expect the fish to be so easily hooked. But what the hell is this full of justice? Are you sure this is what you, who was previously called the Devil Ouka, should say?

"Captain Ouka, it's inconvenient to talk now, please come with me."

Leone followed Ouka's words and took him to a dark alley next to him.

Tatsumi was no longer surprised to see this scene. Since he followed Ouka, he saw some people hiding their identities and reporting illegal guys to the guard team almost every day.

The two walked into the hidden alley one after the other. Ouka stretched his head to hear the whispers of the man under the cloak, and then he felt a sharp pain in his chest. Without paying any attention, Leone pierced his chest with his claws. As a battle-hardened warrior and the captain of the Imperial Capital Guard, he would not be so easily ambushed and killed, but he was still too careless and did not guard against the man in the cloak in front of him.

【Am I going to die? That's right, people like me should have died long ago. It is a grace from His Majesty that I can live this long.

Lying quietly on the cold ground, Ouka's mind was exceptionally clear at this moment, as if he was having a last glimmer of light. He recalled his sinful life, and finally slowly closed his eyes and waited for death.

Leona under the cloak looked at the guy in front of him who was once called Ouka the Devil, and closed his eyes without any resentment. Thinking about the words full of justice that Ouka had said to her before, she felt that she seemed to have really done something wrong.

Just when Leona calmed down her inner emotions and was about to leave, she saw a young man in the uniform of the guard standing not far from her.

Tatsumi, who felt that something was wrong, also walked into this hidden alley and saw that the man in the cloak killed Captain Ouka, who had done him a favor. The bright red blood of Captain Ouka flowed all over the ground. Under the moonlight, his cold face seemed to reveal a peaceful smile.

"I'm going to kill you!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

Looking at this scene, the kind-hearted boy named Tatsumi had the crazy idea of killing this man for the first time.

Captain Ouka was so kind and wholeheartedly upheld justice for the people of the empire, but this man took advantage of Captain Ouka's kindness and brutally killed him. It was unforgivable.

His face was full of sadness, and he stretched out his hand to draw the sword behind him. In a flash, he exerted force with his feet, and the sword in his hand emitted a white light under the moonlight, slashing at the cloaked man in front of him, as if to chop the dark space into pieces.

Leona, who was under the cloak, saw the sword slashing at her, and she stepped back a few steps to avoid it.

"Why are you doing this?"

Tatsumi shouted sadly while slashing at Leona with his sword.

Leona looked at the crazy look of the young man in front of him and knew that he had no idea about the darkness of the imperial capital and how serious the sins of this guy who was once called Devil Ouka were.

If there was no solid evidence, Leona would not dare to believe that this seemingly kind guy had done so many evil things in the past.

"The young man, the captain of the guard team, who was once called Ghost Ouka, once framed many innocent people for his own selfish interests."

"Captain Ouka obviously knows he is wrong and is wholeheartedly trying to atone for his past mistakes, why don't you let him go?"

Tatsumi thought of all the kindness Captain Ouka had shown him these days, and he turned completely evil, with the flame of revenge flashing in his eyes as if it was about to become real.

【Did I really do something wrong? No, I didn't.】

When Leona heard Tatsumi's words and saw the flames of revenge in his eyes that seemed to have become real, her already restless heart was shaken again, but when she thought of the people who had been framed by Ouka, she regained her faith.

"Young man, you were just deceived by that guy's kind appearance. Even if he wants to atone for the evil things he did in the past, he can't hide the fact that he framed so many people in the past. Blood debt can only be repaid with blood!"

Leone said righteously that his atonement could not redeem his sins, only his blood could pay it off.

Looking at the innocent appearance of this young man, Leone really couldn't bear to hurt this innocent boy, and kept dodging his attacks.

"Even if Captain Ouka has done countless evil things, it is not your turn to kill him. Do you think you can be more wise than His Majesty?"

Tatsumi's sword became faster and faster, and he finally managed to hurt Leona.

As the fight became more intense, it finally attracted the attention of the guards and the dark guards. Leona heard the signal from Akame not far away, and she knew she had to retreat.

Leona smiled at Tatsumi and said,"Young man, I look forward to our next meeting."

As soon as she finished speaking, she jumped out of the alley. Tatsumi looked at the cold body of Captain Ouka, and he slammed his fist on the ground

"I am too weak. I don't even know who the murderer of Captain Ouka is when I'm right in front of him. Damn it."

Tatsumi's anger is not towards the murderer of Captain Ouka, but towards his weak strength.

After fighting for so long without even seeing her true face, Tatsumi can't help but feel angry about his weak strength.
