"Huh? You didn't know? Actually, Anning Road has been on friendly terms with us for a long time."
"But I've never heard of this before!" Fan Xinxian asked, unwilling to give up.
"Oh, Li Wei said that after you ran away from home."
"runaway?"
“Yeah, Li Wei said that in your hometown, children would run away from home if they got angry. Aren’t you angry because you can’t outdo Li Wei in looks?” Hill tilted her head slightly, her right index finger touching her chin, and said blankly.
"..."
Li Wei lay back in his chair, swinging his legs, and said, "Didn't you used to check your personal panel every now and then?"
Fan Xinxian was a little frustrated. Why was he so upset? He felt like he didn't know where to begin complaining.
"Alright, alright, stop being so temperamental. You're over 100 pounds already, and you're still acting so childish."
"It's one thing for Kong Se to be stupid, but you're stupid too."
Kongse puffed out her cheeks and said, "He's the one who dragged me there!"
"Huh? You're even dumber than Kongse? Brother, looks like you've been hiding it well..."
After hearing Li Wei's words, Kong Se looked at Fan Xinxian with a sense of accomplishment, as if to say, "Did you hear that? You're even dumber than me!"
"...Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom urgently."
After gritting her teeth and uttering those words, Fan Xinxian walked behind the door of the tavern counter.
Li Wei then said, "Aim carefully, don't pee outside."
"..."
After Fan Xinxian left, Kong Se tugged at Li Wei's sleeve and asked, "What should we do next?"
"Let's go to our new house. Now that you're all back, things will be much easier."
Najenda nodded repeatedly, "You're right. Staying here indefinitely isn't a solution. The Revolutionary Army's preparations are almost complete. We should find a new base to support them."
"Huh? No, I meant going to our new house."
Akame immediately realized what was going on, "Li Wei, you've already found a place?"
"Well, more or less, but it's not really me. Do you remember Lin Aotian?"
Akame tried hard to recall the man whose name hadn't appeared in a long time, and nodded.
"Didn't he leave?"
"No, I already had him dig a tunnel."
"A cave!?"
Li Wei stroked his chin and said very seriously, "That's right, underground, isn't that what you girls call romance?"
"When there's trouble, we fight in caves; when there's no trouble, we fight in the open field."
???
Unable to understand Li Wei's words, Najeta changed the subject, saying, "Alright, since you've already made preparations, when shall we set off?"
"Let's talk about it after Xiaopan finishes using the toilet. Don't let his optimistic name fool you; he's the kind of guy who'll hold his pee for ages if you call him while he's in the bathroom."
“I see.” Najenda fell into deep thought, looking very serious. “I never would have guessed he was that kind of person. No wonder you called him a child.”
Mine's expression stiffened for a moment, then she forced a smile and said, "Why are you so serious about this kind of topic, Boss...?"
Li Wei patted Mine's head and said, "Mine, you don't understand. This is a big deal for a boy. For example, if the firing rate splits during launch, it means there's a problem with his prostate. Or, for example..."
"In short, this is a matter of national importance. Just think, if the whole country were full of men like that, wouldn't we be doomed to extinction?"
???
"Okay, Li Wei, you're right."
And so, after Fan Xinxian braved the rapids in the restroom, the group followed Li Wei toward their new base.
It was a forest on the outskirts of the capital. In this wilderness, Ye Xi and the others, including Fan Xinxian, were all on high alert, because these places were prone to encountering dangerous creatures. But unexpectedly, they were surprised to find that the journey was peaceful.
What surprised them most was that when they encountered a dangerous creature on the road, it responded when Li Wei greeted it and even put down some wild fruits it was carrying on its back in front of everyone.
"Li Wei, what exactly did you do..." Mine looked Li Wei up and down.
PS:
PDS: Alright, time to transition to the final battle... This volume is finally nearing its end... I was originally planning to write a Toaru Majutsu no Index next, but suddenly I don't feel like writing anymore... I've had a fever for almost two weeks now, I'm so tired, I don't have the passion to write battles, I really want to start a new book about leisurely slice-of-life XD
PSS: I have a question for you guys... If you were given the chance to have the ability to make your wishes come true without violating scientific rules, that is, you couldn't fly or teleport, but you could only make things that can be explained reasonably happen, would you want that ability?
But... if this ability to make your wishes come true, both good and bad things will happen. For example, if you accidentally or in a fit of pique think about something happening to someone important to you, and these thoughts come true without your conscious intentions... would you still want this ability?
Chapter 187 The Final Bell Tolls
Along the way, they encountered not only the dangerous species that offered them fruit, but also many other dangerous species that came to greet them, flatter them, or even offer themselves as their mounts.
When they pass by a river and want to fish, a dangerous creature resembling a fish will bring them a large number of various kinds of fish. To survive, this dangerous creature will breathe fire on them.
"Li Wei, you really didn't do anything?" Najeta asked, her face full of suspicion.
Li Wei shrugged and said, "I really didn't do anything."
“Themselves?” Mine cleverly caught the key word.
“Yes, yes.” Li Wei nodded repeatedly. “These were all done by my clones.”
"A clone?" Hill asked, tilting her head blankly.
"Do you possess an Imperial Arm that can create clones?" Najenda asked in surprise.
"Imperial Arms?" Li Wei curled his lip in disdain: "That kind of trash."
Akame and the others' faces darkened simultaneously.
If it were the Fan Xinxian of the past, he would have been worried that Li Wei and Night Raid would fall out, but now he just seems indifferent, and the previous group of factions still makes him question his life.
Najeta wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Li Wei, you've offended a lot of people by saying that."
Akame drew her demon sword Murasame and said to Li Wei, "If you underestimate Imperial Arms, you'll die a horrible death."
"Huh?" Li Wei snorted and said, "Let me tell you, in my eyes, your demonic sword is no different from a butcher's knife."
"Oh?" Akame waved the demon sword Murasame in her hand and said, "Want to give it a shot?"
“Come on, come on,” Li Wei said, rubbing his hands together. “Watch me show you how to catch a blade with your bare hands.”
As he said this, Li Wei reached out with both hands towards Akame's demon sword, Murasame.
"See, see... Huh? Akame, your butcher knife is pretty sharp. I just grazed it and it cut my skin."
!! ?
"Hey, Li Wei, you're not kidding, are you?!" Akame exclaimed in surprise, and then everyone saw a black curse spreading from the wound on his finger.
Fan Xinxian quickly said, "Quickly cut off the arm!"
"What? You want to take away my power of kingship? No, I absolutely refuse! Ah... I, I can't take it anymore."
Li Wei, who had been shirtless from the start, let out a half-groan and fell to the ground. Hill Akame and Mine were so frightened that they surrounded Li Wei.
"Li Wei, don't die, don't leave me alone, sob sob sob..."
"Damn it, Li Wei, how could you possibly die in a place like this!"
"Li Wei, you clearly promised you'd always be there..."
……
Just as the three of them were on the verge of tears, Najenda covered her forehead, which was covered in black lines, and said, "You guys... Li Wei, that's enough."
Kong Se continued eating her grilled fish nonchalantly, while Fan Xinxian looked at Li Wei's upper body and felt a headache coming on. What the hell was wrong with this man?
"Take a good look at his chest..."
Upon hearing Najenda's words, the three of them immediately focused their attention on Li Wei's chest, where they saw a large heart shape formed by the black runes of the demon sword Murasame...
"..."
Hill's face immediately darkened. "Huh? Akame's Murasame is a big cleaver. I wonder if my All-Cleaving Slash is just an inconspicuous little pair of scissors? Mine, come on, pull down Li Wei's crotch and try it out."
"I heard that you, Wei, have an unyielding erection?"
……
The place Li Wei led everyone to was in the wilderness outside the capital. Although it was called wilderness, it was...
The Night Raid members stared in disbelief at the castle-like base before them, especially Mine, who quickly rubbed her eyes as she pointed at the dangerous creatures who were acting as laborers, helping to cut down trees, dig holes, and build walls.
Najenda pointed to the new base and said, "Li Wei, is this the new base you had Kobayashi build?"
"Yeah, yeah, do you guys have any good suggestions? I had Kobayashi build a barbecue area, a hunting ground, an amusement park, an exhibition hall... oh, and a swimming pool, hot springs, and so on. If you have any other ideas for building, just let me know."
Li Wei paused for a moment, then said, "Young Lin will definitely do his best, hmm..."
"..."
Najenda couldn't help but yell, "Li Wei, do you think this base is a resort?!"
As she said this, Najenda glanced at the town not far from the outpost.
"Forget the resort, this is... way too revealing!"
Najenda wondered if the soldiers were all nearsighted, as no one had come to investigate such a large and suspicious castle. But even if the soldiers in the capital were brainless, staying here would eventually lead to trouble.
"Huh? It's okay, it's okay~" Li Wei waved his hand dismissively.
"By the way, when is Najenda's new partner arriving?"
“Ah, you mean this?” Najenda lit a cigarette and said, “It should be here in about three days.”
Li Wei stroked his chin and said, "Chelsie and Susanoo haven't arrived yet."
Najenda exclaimed in surprise, "You know them?"
“Isn’t that obvious?” Li Wei rolled his eyes at Najenda. “I’ve seen Chelsea take a bath before. Susanoo’s cooking skills are probably second only to mine in this world.”
Yes, I've seen it in anime.
"...So, you and Chelsea had that kind of relationship..."
Najenda looked at Mine with a strange expression, then at Hill, then at Akame, and then... at herself.
Najenda sighed.
……
Inside the castle, everyone saw Lin Yifang, whom they hadn't seen in a long time. He looked like he had been promoted from an ordinary worker to a high-earning contractor.
In the conference hall, led by Najenda and with Li Wei playing a minor role, the group began their final strategic meeting.
Najeta sat at the head of the table and laid out a map covered with various symbols whose meanings were difficult to decipher.
Beside them, Susanoo, also known as Najenda's humanoid Teigu, a blue-haired man with two horns on his head, was preparing food for everyone at a nearby table.
"The revolutionary army is now advancing on the capital from all directions, tomorrow..."
Najenda then produced a large map of the capital city. These locations were the division of labor we had agreed upon with the Revolutionary Army, with our entire force launching a night raid.
"The specific arrangements are as follows... Chelsea, you're in charge... Mine, you'll be sniping at this location... Li Wei..."
Li Wei's ears twitched, and he said expressionlessly, "Actually, I've always said we should just push through directly."
Najeta rubbed her forehead. "Li Wei, I know you're very capable, but... never mind, you can go back to being a bystander."
"Go wherever you feel you are needed."
"Then I'll go out for a walk."
Li Wei picked up a large meat leg from the dining table, walked out the door, and saw a large group of black figures emerging in the distance.
The final battle is about to begin!
