Chapter 112 Seven Years Old, Afraid of Workplace Bullying
With the countdown to their return entering its final eight hours, Broly and the others packed their things, preparing to leave the capital.
Hill travels with the group and doesn't need to invite Leone to be his wife beforehand, but Leone wants to stay, so Broly prepares to go find her.
However, before Broly could even go to Leone, Leone arrived with her luggage, looking embarrassed, and asked, "Can I leave with you?"
"Didn't you plan to stay in the capital?"
"Maine asked in surprise."
"That was the original plan, but..."
Leone was a little uneasy, but thinking about what Broly had done the day before yesterday, she told Akame and the others about how she had killed the nobleman in the street.
"Huh? When did this happen?"
"Yesterday, a few spoiled nobles were galloping wildly on horseback through the slums. Not only that, those despicable fellows deliberately drove their horses to compete in a contest to see who could trample and kill more children on the roadside."
I couldn't stand it anymore, and with the power of the belt, I impulsively transformed and killed those scumbags.
Now, I'm afraid of implicating the neighbors, so I have no choice but to run away. Um, could you take me with you?
"I see. Don't worry, we can take you with us."
"Thanks."
Leone thanked them, and the team that set off had gained another member.
Leone was somewhat surprised to see Hill there as well.
These girls, who were about the same age, shared their stories with each other, and Leone felt that life's circumstances were quite strange.
Broly was delighted when Leone suddenly changed her mind and agreed to go with them. Having his friends together would provide mutual support and put his mind at ease.
Are you all ready?
Once outside the capital, Broly asked...
"It's done."
"Well then, it's time for takeoff!"
The reins were cut, the horse was freed, and the boy carried the specially made carriage on his back.
Broly had come all this way without being in a hurry, but now that he was about to be deported, he was going to see what Merad's house was like.
If her home isn't good, Broly will use the time he's still in this world to help Akame and the others find a new home.
The cone-shaped carriage doors closed, and outside the reinforced glass windows, the clouds rushed past. Broly flew very steadily, but everyone in the carriage was still very excited.
Apart from Leone, who was somewhat shocked to find herself flying in the sky, everyone else had been informed of the method for returning to the West.
"We're flying! Aren't you all shocked?"
Leone asked.
"Uh, Broly told us about it beforehand."
After a moment of excitement, the children returned to normal.
"Want to play Joker?"
Akame then took out a playing card and asked.
[He's bad at the game but loves to play!]
Leone looked at her and made this assessment in his mind.
Unsurprisingly, Akame went to jail three times in a row, even though Leone didn't intentionally lose.
The reason he didn't go to jail a fourth time was that, while ensuring the train car didn't disintegrate, Broly had already flown back to the Atlantic and arrived over the location Merad had told him about.
Below was a huge basin, and on the edge of the valley stood a Western-style castle.
The castle is both ancient and luxurious; it is Merad's home and also the headquarters of the assassin society, Oberg.
"Daniel, don't be nervous, it's me back."
The carriage doors opened, and Merad was the first to jump from mid-air, with thin lines spreading out to form a cushioned landing point beneath her feet.
After a brief pause, she stood in front of a man in a suit and tie with slightly graying hair.
"Miss Melard, what are you up to now? And what's that thing in your hand, isn't it an Imperial Arms?"
When Daniel saw a strange flying object approaching from the sky, he and his maid came out to prepare for battle, but they did not expect that what flew over was a carriage, and the person who came out of the carriage was Melard.
"I'd rather call it a token of love than an Imperial Arms."
Melard touched the cross's tail and said this.
"Huh?"
Upon hearing this, the man who looked like a butler widened his eyes.
"Merard, stop talking nonsense! That wasn't some kind of token of love!"
Esdeath retorted without hesitation. Broly landed with the large carriage. Because of what Merard had just said, the assassins and battle maids here did not mistake the person coming out of the carriage for an intruder.
"We came here to work, and Merard said he would provide us with food and lodging."
Akame and the others approached Daniel and spoke to the man who looked like a butler.
"Miss Melard, what is this?"
"They're right, I did promise them a job with room and board included."
"But this is Oberg's headquarters!"
The man offered a reminder.
"Don't worry, the people I brought this time are all geniuses at being assassins."
"Hey, we're not here to be assassins."
"I know, I just made it clear to my housekeeper that you are qualified to work here."
The assassin society's headquarters, located in the wilderness, requires its maids to deal with dangerous creatures that might attack the castle, so they all need to be quite capable.
"Look at what they're holding, those are all Imperial Arms."
Melard added.
"Merard, it's been six months. How come you've become such a boastful kid?"
At this moment, a woman wearing a cloak, with some wrinkles on her face but still showing signs of her youthful charm, walked over and squinted her eyes to ask.
"Barbara, you know me, I never lie."
In terms of relationship, Barbara was her aunt.
However, assassin societies only value strength and don't care much about other relationships.
Therefore, they all address each other by their given names.
"Oh, really? Then I'll have my apprentice try out these children you brought, is that alright?"
Barbara said this.
A young girl stepped out from beside her and looked at Akame and the others.
"This is basically an onboarding test. Who wants to go?"
Melard shrugged and asked Akame and the others.
"Furthermore, Myoko is my aunt's prized disciple. She received professional assassin training from infancy. Don't underestimate her just because she's about your age."
"Don't worry, since you recruited her from outside, I naturally won't let Taeko go too far. Well, at least her life can be saved."
Barbara, seeing her niece's concern for the child she had brought, simply said something.
She was very confident in her disciple's abilities, but what happened next left her speechless.
"Thor's Roar!"
"Water dragon bullet!"
"Rapid firing from the turrets!"
……
The group of children that Melard brought, although not as strong as her disciples, actually possessed Imperial Arms.
She managed to pin her disciples to the ground and rub them repeatedly with the power of her equipment. Only a few of her Imperial Arms were weak and were subdued by Myoko.
"Where did you get so many Imperial Arms? Did you go and rob the Empire's armory while you were missing?"
Barbara was very skeptical.
"Barbara, you have a good eye. You guessed it right away."
Merad readily admitted it, and when asked how she did it, the assassin girl chuckled and grabbed Broly's arm, explaining it to her aunt.
"It's all thanks to my husband. He was so powerful that he broke into the Imperial Palace and forcibly bought their Imperial Arms from the Empire."
No sooner had Melard finished speaking than Esdeath, Mine, and the others rebuked him: "Don't just randomly give yourself an 'eagle' identity!"
The scene was chaotic, causing Barbara's eyes to twitch slightly. She decided to ignore Merard for the time being and looked at the boy: "Young man, you don't mind lending an old woman a hand, do you?"
"Can."
Broly nodded without refusing. He took the woman's offer of help as an entry test. Although he was going back to Planet Wanpa that night, Broly decided to show off his skills in order to support Akame and the others.
This idea stemmed from a sudden realization in his mind: he was seven years old and afraid that his friends would be bullied in the workplace, so as the older brother, he had to take the initiative and give the other senior employees in the workplace a taste of their own medicine!
"Young man, don't be too nervous, I'll hold back."
Barbara, seeing the boy's serious expression, assumed he was nervous and said that.
"Okay, I'll hold back too."
He said he was holding back, but Broly started with a big one.
Before Barbara could react, a beam of energy passed right next to her head.
A rumbling sound suddenly rang out behind us.
Turning around, one could see the distant mountains; in the distance, all the mountains in sight had a huge gap in their middle.
In some mountains with gaps, the remaining side slopes cannot support the peaks above, resulting in the entire mountain collapsing.
From a distance, the collapse of the mountain did not appear to be very fast, but only a dozen seconds had passed before the largest peak hit the ground and the tremors were clearly felt.
Barbara swallowed hard and looked at Merard, who was being criticized by a group of girls. She really wanted to ask her niece: Where did this monster come from?
"Did I pass the test?"
Broly asked the question first.
"certainly."
Barbara's throat was dry. She wondered if the monster in front of her would use its terrifying attack, capable of blasting through mountains, on her if she refused.
