“Esdeath is back?”

Lin Yu had heard many rumors about her. What a super S, she likes to torture criminals, she’s inhumane, but in the eyes of the common people, she’s a good general, incredibly popular, and even has merchandise.

But Lin Yu remembered her in the video, gentle and close, beautiful and charming, understanding, and with a good figure. She was clearly a little woman immersed in love, wasn’t she?

Could it be that those netizens were hiding something big?

“Yes, our insiders in the Imperial Capital have already told us that we need to be more careful in our actions from now on.”

“Lin Yu, wait a moment. Let me catch my breath, then we’ll have a fight.”

Tatsumi stopped Lin Yu, who was about to leave. Having greatly increased in strength, he was a bit cocky at the moment.

“Alright, I also want to see your strength after wearing Incursio.”

Lin Yu smiled. Still too young.

Hours later…

Bang!

Lin Yu’s fist, enveloped in Starburst Stream, collided passionately with Tatsumi, who was wearing Incursio.

Zzz—

Lin Yu also slid back smoothly.

“Hehehe, I guess I win this time, Big Brother.”

Inside the armor, Tatsumi’s nose was almost like Pinocchio’s.

“Not yet. Do you think Lin Yu looks like he’s given up?”

Bulat shook his head helplessly. Still too young. Fortunately, this was just a sparring match.

“What do you mean?” Tatsumi turned to look.

He only saw Lin Yu with a cold smile, then pointed his finger to the sky:

“Come out, Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Golden-Maned Lion, Rock Ape, Iron-Armored Mantis, Twin-Horned Demon Tiger, and… Zank!”

In an instant, the training ground was packed.

“Ha… Ha, Lin… Lin Yu, let’s stop here? Okay?”

Tatsumi inside the armor looked a little awkwardly amused.

“No, I don’t want to! Zank, use Illusion Attack!”

“The rest of you Danger Beasts, use the mob tactics!”

As Lin Yu gave the order, Zank started with a control spell, and the other Danger Beasts immediately swarmed forward.

Five seconds later.

The five Special-Grade Danger Beasts kicked up dust with their claws, then returned to Lin Yu’s shadow with disdain.

Tatsumi’s armor disintegrated. He had a look of utter despair, covered in dust. It was unfair! How could there be such a cheating Imperial Arm?

But Lin Yu’s was a cheat given by the system, while Tatsumi’s Incursio was truly unfair, using the most advanced Tyrant-type Danger Beast, which, when alive, would constantly move and eat all visible creatures.

To better survive, evolve, and hunt, its body had extreme adaptability, able to quickly adapt to deserts or frozen tundras.

Also, because the founding emperor sent an (subjugation team) after it, it even evolved stealth, which is transparency. If this monster had continued to live, who knows what kind of terrifying existence it would have become.

“Big Brother, I’m not convinced. I need more actual combat and training.”

Tatsumi lay on the ground. He absolutely could not let down Big Brother’s Incursio.

“Oh! You’re full of drive! After you recover, Big Brother will take you to a cultivation holy land.”

Bulat was as passionate as ever. He turned to Lin Yu:

“Do you want to come with us?”

“No, I don’t. I’m a lazy bum.”

Lin Yu shook his head and refused. He was a transmigrator; his physical foundation was set. They were born with a local holy body, while he was born with an outsider’s waste body. If he trained by himself, he couldn’t even beat the edible fish in the river (Level 3 Danger Beast – Blue Jaw Fish).

“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll go to the Imperial Guard first to see if there’s any new information.”

Lin Yu had already gathered a lot of information that could be liquidated. They were all flourishing, high-quality leeks, the kind that would ooze oil when cut.

Then, Blue-Eyes White Dragon activated! Target: Imperial Capital.

After Tatsumi recovered, Bulat also took him and Ieyasu to a false place deep in the mountains, one of the most dangerous places near the Imperial Capital, with a large number of mimicry Danger Beasts…

Imperial Guard Station.

Lin Yu had just stepped into the office when Xiaohui rushed in, panicking:

“Captain, someone from the palace is here.”

“What? Someone from the palace is here?”

“It’s the one at the very top who sent someone here.”

Xiaohui gestured behind him with his eyes.

Lin Yu turned his head to look, only to see an old man in a white robe and a tall white hat standing stiffly outside the office.

Hmm… as expected of someone from the palace, truly stiff.

“Quick, quick, quick, let this lord come in.”

Lin Yu welcomed him with both hands. This was clearly the type of old immortal who wasn’t high in rank or powerful, but extremely concerned with appearances. He should have a lot of news in his mouth.

When the stiff old man walked in, Lin Yu quickly greeted him warmly and had him sit in the office chair.

“This eunuch, no, this lord, what can I do for you~”

Lin Yu imitated Xiaohui, blinking his eyes, looking fawning.

“I am here today by His Majesty’s decree to conscript someone from you,” the stiff old man said stiffly.

“Then who does Your Lord wish to conscript? I will cooperate fully.”

Lin Yu patted his chest. But there was no need to think; it was 100% Seryu. With her Imperial Arm, she had long been recorded by the Empire.

“Seryu Ubiquitous. The Empire needs her now. Please notify the Captain to inform her to gather in a few days.”

The stiff old man’s expression did not change in the slightest.

“Of course, I will send someone to notify her shortly, but I wonder why His Majesty is summoning her? Can you tell me…”

Lin Yu, as usual, pulled open a drawer on one side of the desk, revealing a small treasure chest inlaid with jewels, inside which gleamed golden coins.

The stiff old man’s unchanging expression finally showed a slight twitch of an eyebrow.

“This matter was supposed to be kept secret, but I didn’t expect the Captain to be so concerned about His Majesty’s important affairs. This matter should indeed be shared with the Captain…”

Then, the stiff old man, seeing that Lin Yu was giving him face, explained everything.

Lin Yu learned about Esdeath’s plan to conscript “Jaegers” to deal with Night Raid. Unfortunately, he had not revealed his Imperial Arm identity in the Empire, so the “Jaeger” identity was out of the question.

However, she was going to conscript six people, and the stiff old man told him that Esdeath also had ‘Three Beasts’ under her command who were Imperial Arm users.

This meant that, including Esdeath, there would be ten Imperial Arm users on the opposing side. Night Raid, including him and Zank, only had eight and a half Imperial Arm users.

Damn it!!! What the hell can they do? Can they even play? Forty-eight Imperial Arms, and eighteen of them appear at once?

If the location of Night Raid’s base were known, they would be wiped out.

“Then, does Your Lord have any unofficial news about General Esdeath? Look here…”

Lin Yu pulled open another drawer, which contained many shop deeds.

The stiff old man’s eyebrows twitched again. He had found a treasure. This Imperial Guard Captain was quite interesting; his methods of accumulating wealth were not bad.

He heard that he was newly appointed, but he didn’t look like it; he was even better at accumulating wealth than the previous one.

“I didn’t expect the Captain to be so interested in General Esdeath. Coincidentally, I have a piece of news about her…”

The stiff old man quietly motioned for Lin Yu to turn sideways and whispered into his ear about Esdeath’s desire to fall in love and her five standards.

After listening, Lin Yu’s expression was somewhat suspicious. Are you sure she’s not coming for me? He could barely meet all five of these conditions.

First, to aim for the general: are you kidding? He wants to be the Emperor.

Second, to hunt Danger Beasts: isn’t that easy?

Third, to be from a remote border area, not a local of the Imperial Capital: he’s from the remote Blue Star; no one is more remote than him, right? Even if that doesn’t count, doesn’t he have an alias, with the same identity as Sayo and the others?

Fourth, to be younger than her: hmm… Esdeath should be a bit older than him, judging by her figure.

As for the last one, a pure smile: isn’t he pure? He’s just a bit chuunibyou and mischievous. If not, he can just optimize it. Any type you want, he’ll give you something different every day. No repeats, always something fresh.

Looking at it this way, he’s a perfect score~
