Author's Notes: I just saw the Raw for Chapter 60, even Dorothea put up a better fight than the rest of her group, but she was squashed like a bug and revealing her nasty side. And on the plus side, I actually predicted Cosmina being sliced in half in a method of dying before this chapter even came out in chapter 1 of this story, what are the odds? Which means all of Wild Hunt is officially dead in the main story. I of course will try and portray Dorothea in a different way from the manga, but I'll keep it a secret for now. Speaking of Cosmina, remember how I mentioned how her parts were moving like they were still alive, it'll play a part in the later chapters of this story. That's all I can say for now.
As for this chapter, it's going to be very action packed, so be prepared for some awesome fights in this chapter. And the consequences of Tatsumi being attacked by the White Wing are going to show in this fight...
Chapter 11: Kill The Six Generals Part 5.3
The large blonde woman stepped forward and landed gracefully beside Circe. She had a commanding presence that intimidated the group aside from Sekairyu and for some reason Voluptaisa, static lightning danced around her armor. The rest of her army also leapt from the platform of lightning gracefully despite some being very bulky or heavily armored. This made Einheima think that they would have more difficulty fighting two Generals at once, especially since the newly arrived one had defeated Rake, someone who the nearest of the fighters in the Revolutionary Army to the two Former Generals in strength, despite lacking a Teigu with ease.
"Winnifria, I thought you would've gone back to the capital. Didn't His Greatness state in his letter to us that we needed to deal with each of the units of the rebellion. Oda, Swaar and Ocean probably took care of theirs already and have headed to the Empire. So why haven't you gone back yet? Don't tell me that you felt pity for them and allowed them to go free?" Circe responded in a mockingly polite voice to the woman that stood five feet above her height.
"Don't worry, I left my third in command in charge, she's a capable woman. It seems the army's taken a liking to me since my esteemed father died in battle and we suddenly have recruits of the girl soldiers joining my army for some reason." Winnifria told Circe with completely seriousness, made funnier as she seemed completely oblivious to the fan club screaming behind her.
Adeline looked with jealousy as she remembered how she never had any girl fans in the Revolutionary Army due to how fearsome she was in battle, let alone any boy admirers. Miako groaned with annoyance, Miyu maintained an expression of seriousness as she remained in her battle stance and finally Voluptasia was going to greet the two Generals before Einheima grabbed her hand and shook her head in disapproval.
"So who's the giant lady that just showed up? She reminds me of (shudder) Esdeath for some reason." Tatsumi asked Izanagi while bowing, remembering how he was glared at last time for not doing so.
"This woman of great stature is Winnifria, Great General Budo's eldest daughter and heir to his title. She commandeth the Teigu Furfur, which allopath her to become lightning itself. Her trump card, Avalon, can purify impurities of thy soul or slay her enemies to oblivion." Izanagi responded, giving a thumbs up to Tatsumi finally deciding to bow before him. Tatsumi smiled with an awkward chuckle.
"Even though she may be purest of heart, I must kill mine enemy that standeth in our way to defeat Honest. I summon thee, Teigu. Archangel of the Emerald Sky: Quetzalcoatl. His sword glowed with an emerald light, and a large green, winged humanoid with an avian wearing a feathered headdress and dark green armbands with a tube protruding from the center of each band. It wore green jewelry around its neck and lower waist. It surround Izanagi with a sphere of whirlwind as he transformed.
When the dust cleared, stood a small, green toned bodied humanoid wearing a war bonnet and a sarong, with swirl markings on his chest that had lines that went up his neck and down to his waist. His feet were clothed in bird talon styled shoes. He had toned arms with arm gauntlets of emerald color with shiny tubes protruding from the center of the gauntlets. Large wings of green energy adorned his back. His face was Izanagi's but it was covered by a green mouth mask. He wielded a large gunsen fan in one hand and a morning star in the other. Somehow it felt a more completed Teigu than both Incursio and Grand Chariot in their current states.
Sekairyu morphed his body to create an armor that was mesh of parts of other Teigu, Quetzalcoatl's wings, Incursio's cape and leg armor, Grand Chariot forearm protectors on his left and right arms, Hades' helmet, Adramelech's gauntlets and a final piece that was red knight chest armor from a currently unknown Teigu.
"Guess the Emperor's Teigu's something too advanced to copy," Sekairyu said to himself as he prepared to fight.
Miako drew her Teigu, Adeline pulled Extase from her back sheath, Miyu's arms stretched and Voluptasia took a fighting stance with a look of reluctance. Akame drew her Teigu and Einheima prepared her battle stance. Tatsumi then telepathically summoned Incursio...
He then imagined a large Incursio behind him being choked from behind by a large version of the white winged humanoid that attacked Tatsumi. Tatsumi transformed into Incursio's current armor, but suddenly he began to mutate.
The four eyes on Tatsumi's helmet became six, his helmet turned into a draconic face, his skin became lavender in color and was then covered white fur, his hands and feet became claws, a tail grew from his behind and wings sprouted from his back. He had become a small version of the Tyrant Dragon.
This had taken everyone in the Revolutionary Army off guard, as they never expected that Tatsumi would suddenly lose control of Incursio this quickly. Berserk, he began to attack his fellow comrades with bestial instinct. They managed to dodge his attacks, with Akame, Miyu, Adeline and Voluptasia looking extremely worried, Izanagi surprised and both Einheima and Sekairyu looking annoyed at the current situation.
"What happened to Tatsumi to make him go completely wild like this?" Einheima asked Akame, as they continued to dodge Tatsumi.
"A white winged creature attacked and murdered Leone, we attack in vengeance. However, we were struck by his superior fighting power." Akame answered reluctantly as she didn't want to recall that incident so fresh in her memory.
"Since Tatsumi merged with Incursio, it meant it wasn't merely manifesting its power using previous users as mediums, but rather it was sharing Tatsumi's body. Its the first time since its creation 1000 years ago that it ever came that close to death. So its taking over Tatsumi as a defensive mechanism to prevent it from being damaged so easily again." Einheima answered with some irritation towards Tatsumi being overwhelmed by his Teigu so easily.
"Tch, my son's always causing some ruckus in some form or another," Sekairyu commented to himself as he continued to dodge.
Suddenly, the bestial form of Tatsumi turned invisible, and Miyu was swiped on her chest with claw marks of blood spewing out of it.
"Miyu!" yelled Adeline as she ran to Miyu who fell on her back from the wound. Luckily due to taking the lake Teigu Styx during her time as an Imperial Fist member, the wounds regenerated quickly. Just as Adeline was relived, the Tyrant form of Tatsumi materialized in front of her. His mouth opening to reveal a beam of white energy charging to fire. Akame got in her way and yelled with tears in her eyes, "Tatsumi, It's me Akame! Wake up! This isn't like you at all! Please don't make me have to take you down!" Her Murasame was trembling as was her entire body. She had felt this pain since she lost all of her comrades in the Elite Seven to a fiendish girl that had suddenly appeared in the burial grounds of the First Emperor to rescue Kurome. Sekairyu punched Tatsumi with the piston of Adramelech, shocking his son as he flew several feet into the east camp.
"Izanagi, use your Teigu's power to calm him down. And Einheima...do whatever you can to fix this mess." Sekairyu commanded the green clad boy and the lab coat wearing girl. Understanding this message, they rushed to Tatsumi as he slowly got up. Izanagi summoned wind from his tubes and it generated a barrier around Tatsumi, Einheima entered just before the barrier completely closed off with her strange black tool ready to use.
Akame looked at the barrier with much concern to Tatsumi, Sekairyu turned to her and said, "Thanks to his recklessness, we've lost three fighters to fight those two. Or did you forget in this confusion?"
Akame realized that neither Winnifria or Circe had been surprised by this transformation or even moved in to fight. Despite how dangerous Tatsumi was at the moment, they treated it as if he were a rodent that had suddenly appeared, scurried around and quickly vanished. This frightened her more as she felt that Tatsumi in this pseudo-Tyrant form was much stronger than his current armor, and yet it was insignificant to them.
"So the deserter's son showed his true villainous colors and quickly detained. I'll admit that was strange..." Circe said calmly, with her arms crossed under her bosom.
"Let's ignore that ever happened, let us attack the last bit of resistance for the rebellion together. I think His Majesty would prefer the Six Generals to cooperate." Winnifria said professionally as she prepared to dash forward.
"I think its best to attack the wind barrier, reports say that criminal Mine was empowered with abilities that forced Swaar to use his Trump Card. It's better to stop these heathens before they can commit more acts of evil!" Circe said as her coat sleeves unfolded to reveal her arms protruding a variety of gun torrents ready to fire at the enemy.
"Trump Card: Extase!" Adeline shouted as her Teigu shined brightly She assumed this would allow the enemy to be blind so they attack the Generals while distracted. However, much to her horror, the light revealed Winnifria made a path of afterimages connected by electricity with the final image was right in front of her face. Adeline tried to dodge, but was knocked in the neck before she could even react.
Miako then swung her Teigu to unleash energy slashes to Winnifira, but was then shot with tranquilizer shots fired from Circe's gun filled arms. Circe's feet generated rocket boosters that then allowed her to dash towards Miyu. Miyu stretched out one arm to punch Circe in the gut, but the General had turned her stomach into titanium coated steel.
"You dared to hit your own mother, I thought I talked you better THAN THAT!" Circe yelled as she slapped Miyu with a generated iron glove on her right had.
By the time both Generals stepped on the ground, three of the Four Heavenly Queens were out of commission. And Voluptasia was the only one left.
"So the elite guard of the leader of this rebellion were just inexperienced women," said Winnifria as she turned to Voluptasia.
"I'll head to the boy, I'm guessing he's receiving a power-up of some kind that will allow him to fight on our level." Circe told Winnifria as she walked to the wind sphere that Tatsumi was detained in. She then noticed Akame, who had leapt into the air and pointed her blade to Circe's Teigu mark. Amused, she grabbed the Teigu with her metal hand.
"I won't let you touch Tatsumi!" Akame said with strong resolve. She then kicked Circe in the head, causing her to skid a few feet.
"It's not like it matters, there's only three criminals at the moment that can fight, you the traitorous former No.1 Assassin of the Empire, Sekairyu noted to be the right hand man of the previous Emperor and the little girl that clearly doesn't belong here." Circe told Akame with smug satisfaction.
"Jokes on you, Voluptasia's actually the strongest of the four!" Sekairyu spoke behind Circe.
Voluptasia emitted an aura that she then injected Circe's body with. It caused Winnifria's electrical body to flew toward Winnifria and landed on top of her. Akame pulled her blade out just in time, to avoid being magnetized.
"What did she do just now?," Akame asked Sekairyu as she saw Voluptasia give a sigh of relief. She then walked to each of her comrades and generated golden energy to heal them back to consciousness. They gave a thumbs up in gratitude, which pleased the horned girl.
"I'll keep it simple. At the moment, she's the strongest entity in the Revolutionary Army, not a Teigu, but something on a higher level. I can argue that if she felt it, she would annihilate the entire capital by herself with her myriad of abilities." Sekairyu answered with some pride, but turned around to Tatsumi. He slapped his hand to his forehead in irritation as he had seen his son who basically the first time he saw him fight since he left the village, went berserk and had to be dragged out of the fight.
Circe and Winnifria fared no better, both of their armies turned their backs to the sight, not wanting to be yelled at their commanders for witness what just happened. The girls on Winnifria's army blushed greatly, sighed softly or simply fainted.
Circe and Winnifria were locked together in a very suggestive position, due to how Circe's metallic body was drawn to Winnifria's electrical being. Their bosoms interlocked with each other, their stomachs pressing together, hands forcefully locked in embrace, legs intertwining together and their mouths kissing the other, much to their distress.
"I think you might've went too far, Volu." Sekairyu said, understating the obvious; Voluptasia looked confused as all the other Revolutionary Army girls looked with immense shock and bright red faces.
"I wanted my first kiss to be with the man that would be my true love. Not a Ubiquitous woman's who's too obsessive in administering justice," Winnfria told Circe during the breath moment she caught her breath.
"Forgive me God of the Empire, I've committed an injustice in engaging in unjust conduct of intimacy not of man and woman." Circe prayed before being forced to kiss again.
"Is Einheima done yet? It looks like Voluptasia managed to defeat the Generals by taking advantage of their elements. At my estimate, they won't separate till tomorrow." Sekairyu said as he scratched his head.
Circe's eyes narrowed when she then spoke before being interlocked in kissing again, "This mockery has gone on long enough! It seems we're stuck in strong magnetism that will last till tomorrow. I don't know who the girl with horns is, but she's clearly a threat."
"Then, if we're opposites, then I'll change my charge from positive to negative." Winnifria spoke with a serious look, unfazed by the situation.
"So you know how magnetics works, the late Budo was capable of teaching things outside of laws and battle." Circe responded with a smirk
Winnifria then widen her eyes as she spoke, "Don't be ridiculous, I got it from a tutor hired by my esteemed father. Now let me concentrate." Winnifria's electrical aura changed from golden to cool blue. Her expression was very depressed, as she muttered how she'd never get a husband now. It was enough to demagnetize the two Generals and dispel the magnetic pulse.
"Oh crap, forgot that it wasn't that one-track minded Budo who was all about strength of the Empire and its politics." Sekairyu said in a composed voice.
Overhearing this, Winnifria punched Sekairyu in the face, causing him to fly skidded several fight. Circe manifested a dagger in her left arm to impale Voluptasia in the chest.
"You could be useful in the capital as experimentations for Justice!" Circe said with her sharp teethed smile. Voluptasia, reacted by firing a blue beam from her mouth that Circe barely dodged. It went into the sky and vanished as it continued to flew upwards. This made Circe pull back from fighting her out of caution.
She then noticed that the wind barrier had been dispelled, with Tatsumi sitting in the middle of Einheima and Izanagi. Their expressions were grim.
Akame asked first weakly then began to shout, "How's Tatsumi? Say something! What happened?! I thought you could fix him!"
"I fixed Mine because she had a chance to live. Tatsumi just overloaded Incursio due to that meltdown earlier...and it claimed his life." Einheima responded with disappointment.
"TATSUMII!", Akame got on her knees and cried. Adeline, Miyu and Miako felt sorry for her. Winnifria looked with pity at a waste of such potential, while Circe snickered to herself, as she said, "The Divine Justice struck him down for his sins of defying His Majesty!"
"Calm down, it's just a minor convenience." Sekairyu said coldly, as he walked to Akame.
"How dare you! Tatsumi always rushed into danger because he believed this was the right path, even though he knew being an assassin meant being killed off for his deeds sooner or later! We were prepared for that! But, this wasn't the way he was supposed to go!," Akame cried as she glared at Tatsumi's detached father with intense anger.
"Sigh, I wanted to save this till the end of the Revolution. Voluptasia, bring him back." He commanded Voluptasia to walk towards Tatsumi.
She then entered a trance like state and place her opened hands in front of Tatsumi. A barrier of sapphire energy surrounded Tatsumi. Einheima was very shocked while Izanagi was very confused at what he was confused.
"What do you mean bring him back! No Teigu has the power to bring the dead back to life! Not even Yatsufusa that can bring corpses from the grave can truly back those who've died!" Akame said as she stared at Tatsumi with his eyes closed. She then saw the dead boy's index finger twitched.
She stared in bewilderment as she then turned to Sekairyu. He responded as look into the sky, "I told you, she's something higher than a Teigu."
Winnifria and Circe stared at the horned girl with intense stares, Circe opening her mouth to reveal a long rifle ready to fire and Winnifria conjuring two short sword made of electrical energy. Miyu, Adeline, Miako and Akame ran and blocked their path.
"I won't let you touch him," Akame as she pointed her blade at the two Generals. Circe smirked while Winnifria stared with a cold, emotionless glance. Suddenly a figure landed in the battlefield. A blue haired figure that was very familiar to Night Raid.
