Chapter 1: Uninvited Guest and Decisions
A lone boy and his cat walking on the road. There are no horse carriages were coming by until he heard two footsteps from his behind. He would pretend to walk because he is wearing his blindfold and act like blind. He continues to walk until he heard an unknown voice until he felt his shoulder was being grabbed.
"Wait! It's dangerous to walk alone with your cat. You're blind, aren't you? At least let us help you."
"Oh no, you don't have to. I was on my way to Capital because I don't know where am I going."
"Leave it to us! We can guide you there. Before we go, is there anyone else that you know in Capital?"
"Nope. I was hoping to go there on my own."
"No. You're blind and you're going need your hand otherwise you'll run onto bandit or even worse."
"Sounds right. Looks like I do need your hand to take me to Capital. Almost forget, what's your name? My name is Shiki Tohno. Just call my first name."
"My name is Sayo and my idiot friend, Ieyasu. We have a task to save our village. Unfortunately our friend, Tatsumi was separate from us due to bandit's ambush."
"You're calling me as an idiot!"
"And you're being slack off!"
They both glare at each other while Shiki starts to laugh softly. With his laugh made them stop before Shiki spoke.
"You sure remind me of my old friend. And I may ask you is to guide me to Capital because there is something very important that I need to finish."
"Sure! Leave it to us!" said Ieyasu, putting his fist on his own chest before they proceed to Capital.
They reach Capital without trouble. Shiki is about to leave before Sayo ask him.
"Do you have any friends who live here?" said Sayo, asking him if he had.
"Ah, my friend. I haven't seen him a long time ago. I suppose I have to pay for his visit."
"And will you be ok on your own? Because you're blind?" said Ieyasu, start being worried if Shiki goes anywhere with his trouble.
"Don't worry. I could ask the guards to guide me."
"Phew, it's good news. And I have a questio-" before the crowd starts flooding around with them. Once the crowd stops flooding as they noticed Shiki was not there anymore.
Meanwhile, Shiki is standing on the roof, gave them with his smile while Sayo and Ieyasu were looking for him until they give up their search.
"Told you. I should be fine on my own. Too bad, I'm not letting you involved with my work. I guess it's time for me to work." said Shiki, turn away before making his move on his first night.
Shiki sat on the floor near to barrack along with her familiar cat, Len. He stroke on her on her back before she fells asleep. He sure made his mess with his own work after he made his rumor spread like a fire. Lucky for him, they were unable to find his description and decide to leave his name...actually not the real name. Leaving his True title behind. He heard a footstep is walking toward to him. He knew he had to act as he lifts his head, raising his right arm before scratching Len's head.
"Would you like to take my fortune? Only one silver would be enough."
"Oh I didn't know you were the fortune teller." said an unknown voice which it could be younger. Possibility the same age as Ieyasu.
Shiki got a silver coin as he put it in his pocket and start to ask him, "Give me your right hand. And your name too."
"My name is Tatsumi. And I would like to know what my future holds me," said Tatsumi, gave his right hand to him.
"Tatsumi. A pleasure name. Your parents might've made the right decisions."
"I never knew my own parents. I was raised in my village as an orphanage and old man gave me a name."
"Sounds like he is a nice person. Ok, Tatsumi...I see you're fighting who is someone else is stronger than you are. And you have your charm to protect you?"
"You mean this?" said Tatsumi, pulling his charm out from his pocket.
"Then keep it on your left on your breast pocket, just in case. The best thing for you is to go right now."
"Oh right and thanks for this," said Tatsumi, putting his charm inside of his left breast pocket as he goes his way to enlist an Imperial Army.
While Shiki start chuckle, knowing they won't accept him as a fool. He waits for five minutes until he heard someone else kicked Tatsumi out from Barracks.
Tatsumi shouted, "WAIT, YOU CAN AT LEAST TEST ME!"
"STOP MESSING AROUND! YOU NEED TO WIN RAFFLE FOR EVEN BECOMING SOLDIER!" said angry old man, lecturing him, "APPLICATIONS ARE FLOODING IN BECAUSE OF RECESSION! WE CAN'T BE LOOKING OUT EACH AND EVERYONE! THERE IS ALSO A LIMIT TO HOW MANY WE CAN HIRE!"
Tatsumi was surprised when the recruits were flooding in. He didn't know they were going join Imperial Army to protect this place.
"Wha...? Really?"
"IF YOU GOT IT, SCRAM FUCKING BRAT!"
The next moment an angry old man slammed his door behind, leaving Tatsumi stunning about his future. Poor him, he doesn't know where to start until Shiki approach him before a woman approach Tatsumi.
"Hey there," said an unknown with a feminine voice, "You seem troubled, young lad. Should this onee-san here lend you a hand?"
Shiki knew he had to pretend to be blind again. He casually approaches to them until he touches her shoulder.
"Tatsumi, is it you?"
"No. Tatsumi is next to me. And you are?"
"My name...I've forgotten my own name long ago. I can't remember it. And don't mind me with my cat, because I used to take care of her. Her name is Len." said, Shiki, not wanting to reveal his real name to her.
She looks at Shiki's familiar and pats her head. She meows before she walks back to Shiki as she climbs to reach his shoulder.
"Your cat is lovely. My name is Leone. And what sort of business do you have with us?"
"I believe Tatsumi needs our help after I gave him a fortune. And now it's my turn to owe him."
Leone drank more than three times while Tatsumi and Shiki were disgusted with her personality. Shiki is not a kind of heavy drinker, nor Tatsumi is. Shiki never ate his food since they bother never ask him what he wants.
"I've got a contract in the army. If you show him some money, right away!"
"I see...would this be enough?" said Tatsumi, taking his huge amount of money bag from his backpack.
"What about you, bud?"
"Me? Truth to be told, I don't really know much since I tried to join this army before I've gone blind all this year." said Shiki, made up with his lie since he knew she is going to take Tatsumi's money and run away,"If you have a connection with your army, then how are you going to give him a money? To support for your army's cause?"
Leone almost raises her eyebrow. It seems like as if he saw through her mind. To be frank, he would guess anything else what he wants.
"You're right. My army does need some fund because we can train people to use the right tools."
"Mmm...If you say so, then I don't have any problem with your army. Anyway, you can go and fund your army. I feel like we will meet again for this time."
She gave them with her smile as she took Tatsumi's money to fund her army.
"I'll give this money to my boss. In meantime, I'll settle this. So wait for me here." said Leone, gave them for her smile as she waves them.
She finally left this bar while Tatsumi sits on his chair, waiting for her to come back. Shiki start laughing at him while Tatsumi looks at him with his curiosity and starting to ask him, "What are you laughing at? Is there something that I don't know of?"
"Are you stupid? She obviously scams you for your money!" said Shiki, trying to remind him that Tatsumi was being scammed.
"Wait what? You're lying! She would never scam me!"
"Perhaps, look at you. You're broke and how are you going to pay for it? Now you are being stuck in here, to clean this up."
"He is right. It's your fault that your money has been taken. And you know what? I've got few dishes for you to wash them all." said the owner of the bar, wiping his glass before finishing it, "And you, I know you and you don't have to pay for it. I'll take your word for this after what you did."
"My pleasure. I trust you didn't have the problem with your work?"
"Y...yes there is no problem. And you kid, I want you to wash all of this dishes!"
Tatsumi and Shiki walk out from the pub this late night while Tatsumi is being down, along with his little money left. He looks so gloomy and being down while Shiki tried to cheer him up.
"Don't worry. We'll find her and get your money back. Don't ya think, kiddo?"
"I get it. I get it. By the way, why don't you tell me your name? I suspect you don't want to give your real name to her?" said Tatsumi, trying to regain his sense.
"Right. This is the last thing that I'll tell you is my name. Shiki Tohno. Please call my first name because I don't want to be called 'mister'." said Shiki, smiling at him before he chuckles a little bit.
"And lastly, that owner...it seems he knew you. Let me guess...he owes you?"
"He owes me? Hahaha. You could say...a secret trade. But I can't give you lots of details for you unless the time is right."
Once they were being stopped by two people were looking for their trouble. They were smiling as if they're looking for Tatsumi's or Shiki's money and now they're going to make them give up for their money.
"Look at you, two walking around here." said skinny man.
"Give it to us." said fat man, gave them with his chuckles, "Oh, of course, that's an order."
While Tatsumi and Shiki gave them with their dead look before looking at each other as they shrug as they were able to defeat them without the problem. They were able to walk away without their scratch.
"Don't you think they're an idiot?"
"I really hope they are."
They continue to wander around until Tatsumi stop as he looks over a huge building.
"What's wrong Tatsumi? Looking for something?"
"My friends...I was wondering how they were doing. Do you think they already did arrive this Capital before me?"
He feels like as if he knew them "I don't know. Who are your friends that you mentioned this before?"
"Sayo and Ieyasu."
Sounds like Shiki and Len knew them from their first day while Len in her cat form looks at him with her eyes. The next thing Len decide to walk around on Tatsumi's legs as she purrs so that he will notice.
"Oh, Len." said Tatsumi, pick her up as he pats her head," She is cute, isn't she?"
"Oh, my. I think you better be careful with your words because she doesn't like it," said Shiki, smiling at him.
Len scratch Tatsumi's face before she jumps down as she walks toward besides with him.
"Hey that's mean, Len!" said Tatsumi, decide to follow him.
While they continue to walk until Tatsumi is being tired as he sat on the floor, "Shiki, I think we need rest because I don't have money to pay for our vacant."
He is about to speak before they heard the horse is coming on their way until they stop. He heard someone who spoke with a feminine voice, "Don't they have the place to stay? How unfortunate."
"Again, my lady?" said an unknown guard, concerning with her safety.
"Can't help it." said an unknown lady as she steps down from her carriage,"That's my nature."
Shiki had a good rest after they had long talk with them last night. It seems he suspect Aria's family used to lure unsuspect people to deliver someone else. Looks like he is going to investigate later.
He is about to leave this before he forgets to take his Shroud of Martin to cover his eyes. He remembers when Zelretch gave him a Shroud to him when his eyes become stronger than his old glasses or known as 'Mystic Eyes Killer'. If Zeltretch hadn't, then Shiki would've becoming crazy until he'll die. Shiki doesn't know where it comes from and he would've to ask Zelretch where he obtains it from somewhere else. It's too late for him to ask. He properly suspects he must've stolen and duplicated it from the church before replacing it without having them being suspicious.
He remembers his traveling when he used to look for Arcuied somewhere in Europe because he had a hard time to find her until that old man guides him before Shiki eliminate vampire's threat.
And now Arcuied's castle is safe and sound and he became her guardian to protect her until...he doesn't know what to do afterward. All is he knew he had to check Twenty-Seven Dead Apostle Ancestors or you can call them as DAA for short. Too bad, Choas, Roa, Wallace, and Einnashe are already dead and looking for their replacements. All explain is going to be long until his time come. Therefore, he already did eliminate Lourve and his children and took his possession as a prize before Barthomeloi and her force arrive about seven months ago. Or did he forget it? It doesn't matter whether he forget it or not.
He put his Shroud of Martin to cover his eyes as he notices his lines become thin and doesn't have a problem whenever he could kill them if he could unwind and wind his eyes and let his 'other' do his work whenever he might need him.
Once he finishes tie on his back as he left this room before calling Aria's guard for his guide.
"Oh, you're the person that Aria took you and your friend in?"
"Ah yes. I would like to know where Tatsumi has gone?"
"I think you missed them because they've gone out for shopping."
"If it is, then I have a favor to ask." said Shiki, took his deep breath before he let his air out, "I would like to go out for a walk."
Shiki and Aria's guard were walking outside beside to the Emperor's castle. It seems there was too much crowd than he was expecting.
"I have a question, Shiki."
"Yes, what is it?"
"Why did you wear your blindfold? Is it because of your religion?"
He starts chuckle with his question as he answers, "Apparently no. I don't have religion because I wasn't born with this. I had a terrible accident when I was young."
"Oh sorry to hear about this. One day you will get your sights back!" said guard, trying to cheer him.
"And I have a question about this posters. I would like to know what are they."
"You mean them on the walls?"
"Yes."
"They're Night Raid. They are the group of the assassin and they usually kill their high ranking or wealthy individual in this Capital on every night."
Sounds like they're getting way on Shiki's work and didn't want to deal with them this night. Thankfully he didn't encounter them past three days ago since he started his killing spree. If he did encounter them, then there would have been a huge problem with him since he had made his city in half to make them work for him.
"And another poster has appeared with an unknown face past three days ago. His name is Satsujinki. The rumor is he killed no more than 15 people, including some people disappearing without traces."
"Don't they have their information on Satsujinki? Any witnesses?" said Shiki, knew he is right next to him. And it's false fact that he never killed 15 people. The fact is, he killed no more than 20 threats. You never know when Aria invited a serial killer to your home because she managed to screw this up.
"None. No witness and nothing. He disappears into thin air, just like that. No information from him or his organization. He is like...you know as if he is being rogue from Night Raid."
"Sounds like he is bad news. And one last question...what if he harms her when she needs you?"
"Of course, I'm going to shield her with my life!"
They kept walking until they found Tatsumi and Aria along with her several guards. It seems Tatsumi carried lots of her shopping bags. It seems as if Aria is enjoying herself along with Tatsumi.
"So what's next?" said Shiki, smiling by himself, knowing he is going to start his work this tonight.
Aria's father is no longer able to move from his chair. With his limbs has been cut off so that he can't run away from Shiki.
"One last question...who is your supplier? I'm not kind of being a nice person...it would be a shame if I could cut you into pieces. Lucky for him, he'll leave my decisions for him." said Shiki, reading his book to look for his information before dropping it on the floor.
"Please...anything else, but my wife and my daughter...Plea-" before Shiki cut him as he put his finger on his mouth.
"Shhh...You don't have to. You wife and Aria will share the same fate as you are. Maybe I should ask her once I'll find her." said Shiki as he cut his head as it falls to the ground.
Once he left his room to find his wife and Aria in this mansion. It wouldn't be hard for him to find them before Night Raid comes in. He heard someone is walking far and she never notice Shiki's presence. Sounds like his wife is enjoying for her 'hobby.'
He made his run without making his sound as he cut her into half, head, neck and waist. She never notices until she is no longer walk anymore before her body parts fell on the floor.
"And now for Aria...Let's get this job done." said Shiki, start walking as he noticed Night Raid is here already, "Tch, too late. I'll play along as well."
He starts running until Tatsumi is standing there as he notices Shiki is running toward to him.
"Tatsumi, what's going on here? I need to know!"
"They're here...It's Night Raid. We have to leave to meet Aria!"
Tatsumi grab Shiki's hand as they made their run, "They are targeting people because they are wealthy. I don't know what are they after for."
They kept running until they found Aria along with her bodyguard. The next thing he notices that the boy is blind and he can't do anything else. Which this leaves Tatsumi as bait to give them for their time.
"You! We'll run to the warehouse and wait for the guards to arrive. You have to stop the enemy for us in meantime!" said, guard, as they ran to the warehouse to leave Tatsumi behind to deal with them.
While Shiki starts to smile that he is able to get close to them before he raises his blindfold to expose his right eye as he looks at guard's eyes. While the guard is being frozen as Shiki made his move without a word. Shiki decides to leave him to give them for his time before the guard turns around to give them for Shiki's time.
He starts running toward to Aria before he grabs her neck as he lifts her while she kicks her leg frantically. He start to smile at her before asking her, "Tell me...who is your supplier? I can guarantee to let you go if you could give me a name."
"Y...you...what are...you doing?" said Aria, trying to scratch Shiki's hand which she is unable to fight him back.
"Oh right, it seems you invite a serial killer to your home while you had your fun with them. I suppose you already know what happens to your parents. For the last time, I'm going to ask you. Who. Is. Your. Supplier?"
"Please don't kill me! I'll tell you! Please let me go and I can write the names for you!"
Shiki let her go as he gave him his paper and pen to her as she writes on the list frantically as she is willing to finish. She finishes her list as she gave the list back to him.
"Please don't kill me!"
He took it as he put it in his pocket before he covers his right eye as he heard there were two footsteps were behind on him. It seems he finish his work before he turns at them.
"Satsujinki...it seems you killed them before us. Tell us what is your objective?"
"Oh my it is quite rude for you not introducing your name." said Shiki, "Oh by, the way, my real name is Shiki Tohno...you best to remember my name. And I should ask you...would you kindly let me go?"
She raises her sword against him before responding, "My name is Akame. And I shall remember your name too. You are not my target, but you got my way to kill her."
Shiki smile at her as he reverses his knife before making his stance. He almost forgets about Aria as he notices she tried to crawl away from them. He decides to cut Aria's legs so that she doesn't run anymore.
"AHHHHH! MY LEGS!"
He ignores her scream before he heard from Tatsumi. It seems he survived to fight against her. But he was ultimately ignored by her before she makes her way.
"Shiki, what sort of meaning is this?!" said Tatsumi.
Akame made her move before Shiki vanish from her eyes. From her reaction that she is surprised that Shiki is able to vanish. She stops her movement before she felt her ribs is being kicked by Shiki. She is about to swerve her sword on right before he is able to deflect her sword without touching the lines. He reverses his knife as he punches her stomach before she jumps back. The next thing she made her move on the right side before Shiki is able to intercept her as he raises his knife to make his cut. With Akame's reaction, she is able to use her sword to deflect Shiki's knife as he punches her stomach as she drops her sword on the ground. Shiki picks Akame's sword as he points at her, "Akame, your title is One-Shot Killer. This sword used to kill these people. You know this poison kills people am I right?"
While Leone came from the mansion as she felt her disappointment that someone else did kill them before Night Raid. She didn't have her time to find out who did and planning to meet them outside until she recognizes two of them. Tatsumi is being surprised by Akame and...another person? No, wait! She knew him from this before. He never gave his name to Leone due to his suspicious. She assumes he is the one who did kill them. She never realizes until Night Raid stumble on killer's work...His name is Satsujinki.
"It's pointless to fight against me. You have to give up unless you want to chase me. Then you're welcome to try it if you like." said Shiki, still holding Akame's sword as he continues to points at her.
"Impossible... I was defeated by a mere killer? Don't tell me...you're a highly trained assassin?"
"I may be an assassin. Think of me as a freelance guy... But I may look alike as a serial killer. Blame him because he is enjoying his killing."
"And someone tells me what's going on here?!" said Tatsumi as he shouted at Akame and Shiki which they completely forget about him.
"Oh we forget about you and Leone too." said Shiki, decide to let them slide, "I think Night Raids are going to explain to Tatsumi better than I do."
Shiki sat near to a lone tree along with his companion, Len. He is being relaxed when he is around with her.
"Don't you think I made my decisions right? Thought I didn't want to pair anyone else after we agreed?"
She starts meow as she stretches on her back before she walks away from him.
"I thought so," said Shiki before he heard another footstep from his behind,"What is it?"
"I just want to say...thank you for letting me kill her."
"After your friends died in front of you?"
He sat on the grass next to him, "Yes. After I learned their true color and now we are living in this cruel world. What about you? It seems as if you already knew about this."
"Me? Been here a long time ago...can't remember how long was it. Like I said this before, I'm just a freelance assassin who is willing to kill everyone for...I don't know what to say, fun? Nah it's not the right word. It's just something else."
He is about to speak before he felt his head is being heavy and...soft? He jumps far as he turns at her, "WHOA! WHAT'RE YOU DOING THIS SUDDEN?!"
"Take it easy, pal. Looks like I found you at this time. Have you made your decisions to join this Night Raid?"
"LIKE I SAID-"
"What about you, Shiki?" said Leone, ignore him as he shouts at her.
"Me? I'm sure you already know my answer."
"Ha...You're just too tough to convince you. Anyway, I'll have you to tour around this hideout!" said Leone, grab Tatsumi as she rubs his hair.
"Hey! MY NECK!" said Tatsumi, trying to free by himself as they both walk toward to their hideout.
"Hmph, looks like I'll have to stick with you as well."
They made their way to a large room with a long table inside and a girl with purple hair sitting there, reading her book.
"Hey, Sheele!"
"Oh hey, Leone. Are these two new recruiters?" said a girl with purple hair while she is holding her book.
"Yup," said Leone shouted back with her little excitement.
"Have they made their decisions to join?"
"Not yet," said Leone, "Maybe you could encourage them to join us."
"Ah, I see. Looks like you know our hideout. If you don't join us, then we'll kill you."
"Ohhh...I would love you to try," said Shiki, gave her with his smile.
"WHAT THE HELL?!"
They both turn their head as they noticed a girl with pink hair, "LEONE! WHAT ARE THEY DOING IN HERE?"
"Oh them? Tatsumi is our recruiter and Satsu...no Shiki, he is kinda hard to deal with since he has more experience than us," said Leone, trying to reassure her as much as she could.
"I'm not buying it! And they haven't gotten their permission from our boss!" said a girl with pink hair before she looks at them, "Nope. They don't fit me as an assassin. By judging their looks, they better off to gone to labor."
"Heh...I'm sure you've already got your guts...Would you rather for being cut into seventeen pieces? Huh?" said Shiki, grasps his hands on her neck as if he is choking her.
The moment she is unable to move, nor her voice came out. She really wants to scream but no voice came out from her. She is about to close her eyes before shaking by Leone.
"Mine, are you ok? I tried to call you and you didn't respond to me."
Mine came back with her sense along with her reality. She looks at Shiki, standing beside with Tatsumi while he played with his knife. She widens her eyes which she realizes that person is dangerous. She decides to keep her mouth shut and kept on her acting as she left this room.
Leone introduced everyone to Tatsumi and Shiki while they kept walking as the trio stop as they saw Akame is sitting there, cooking her Evilbird. The next thing that he noticed she is eating Evilbird's leg before she notices Leone's presence.
"Hey isn't that an Evilbird? Did she hunt on her own?" said Tatsumi, being surprise the fact is she is able to hunt on her own.
"Yes. Akame grew up in the wild since she had her rough childhood," said Leone while she closes her eyes as she smiles.
"Mmm...Compare with my previous clan, my own father never taught me any art of assassination before someone else took me in," said Shiki, scratching his hair while Leone and Tatsumi look at him with their eyes, "What? Like I said this before, I was never trained as an assassin until she changes my life."
"And you're going to join us, Satsujinki?" said Akame, eating her food while she stares at him.
"What should I say? Then I would respectfully refuse to join your band because I have my own work which you can't involve with me," said Shiki, gave her a shrug.
"It's real shame if you would join us to fight against Empire, then we could use your skill for good."
"Aren't you suppose to be excited?" said Leone, while she eats her food.
"Oh, by the way, the boss is back," said Akame, gave her point to their boss eating her food before she gave them with her wave. From Shiki's perspective, he noticed that a woman had her right eyepatch and a mechanical arm which he assumes she fought someone else from her previous mission. Perhaps she is a leader of Night Raid and willing to ask Shiki to join Night Raid. He knew he doesn't want to join any group which he prefers to work alone unless necessary.
"Shiki, are you listening?"
He didn't realize his mind went somewhere else until he didn't notice Leone was being scared by her own boss before she scolds her.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Tatsumi. My mind has been blank. What is it?"
"We are going back to their hideout because we are going to tell our stories," said Tatsumi, following them back to their hideout as Shiki follows them.
They've gone back to the hideout with entire of the team inside the room where they met Sheele earlier. Shiki observes the room while everyone listens to Tatsumi's story. The woman introduced her name as Najenda spoke.
"I see." said Najenda as she moves her left eye as she looks at Shiki, "And you're Satsujinki, aren't you? From what I heard you made yourself as being famous killer. Plus your real name is Shiki Tohno."
"Oh please don't call me because it is embarrassing. Shiki is fine or whenever you feel like to call me," said Shiki
"And it doesn't make you as a killer. What I heard from Akame, it seems you have experience as an assassin. Three days ago, I sent my agents to look for you, however, you vanish like thin in the air. Plus you killed 15 people apart from our targets and non-targets."
"Actually 20." All of them look at him with their confusion look before Shiki explain.
"I made people disappear without traces. If you're asking me how then I can't tell you."
"All right. I have a few questions, where did you learn your skill?"
"Truth to be told...I wasn't taught as an assassin since I was young before someone else took me in. My father...no...my real father taught me to 'make people live' before killing people. I didn't become an assassin until she changed my life."
"Sounds weird. The weirder that I've heard your story," said Najenda, noticing Shiki is wearing his blindfold which it makes him as blind. You can't judge their looks because they used to hide with their looks, "You were able to fight against Akame due to your superior agility and your knife, it looks like an ordinary fruit knife to me which leads to the next question, what Teigu do you possess?"
"Nothing. Just an unordinary assassin guy with the fruit knife." he quickly made no hesitation, pulling his switchblade as he threw it at her before she caught it with her left hand.
"What's this?" Najenda examines Shiki's knife.
"Just a memento from my dead clan. It's not very important for me to remind from my own dead clan."
"Mmm...Nanatsu-Yoru was known as Nanaya, Seven Nights. Your last name is Tohno, but it's not Nanaya?" said Najenda, gave his knife back to him.
"He is on another side whenever I might've needed him. It is too complicated to explain everything that I've got."
"First time I've seen someone who fights against an enemy with a knife. Usually, they were good with their close quarter combat against their targets. Normally the soldiers may be able to deal with them, except you," said Bulat.
"And one last question, what about your eyes?" said Najenda, noticing that Shiki is hiding behind his eyes and she wants to know what his eye looks like. Maybe he had Teigu eyes inside of his head?
Shiki starts to laugh like crazy from Najenda's question, causing them were being uncomfortable. At least they were going to prepare against Shiki in case, it might've happened.
"My eyes? Heh, if you want to know what my eyes look like, then I can't really tell you." said Shiki, "If you ask me more question, then I would suggest you better drop them and pick another topic."
"Right. I better not ask about your eyes anymore. Anyway, Tatsumi, I understand your situation completely when your friends died in front of you. And would you like to join our Night Raid?" said Najenda, looking at him.
While Tatsumi's mind went being blank before responding, "Oh I'm sorry! I've been blanked. And you're saying I'm going to join your group? What if I refuse?"
"Unfortunately, we can't let you go otherwise you have to work as labor in our workshop. Except for Satsujinki. And I would like to know your thoughts of capital."
"Originally...we were supposed to save my village because we were planning to become famous. Instead, my village hit a poverty and suffering too much. I do think this Capital is rotting like as if they were living in hell without having them noticing."
She turns her head as she gave her question to Shiki, "And what about you, Shiki? Will you be joining us?"
