"Haah!"

In front of the throne, energy clashed fiercely between Mika and Esdeath's tightly clasped hands, causing violent ripples to spread outward.

Under the impact of this shockwave, the others in the grand hall gradually retreated.

As Mika and Esdeath began their battle, the fight over the future ownership of the Empire fully commenced.

"Kill!"

As the battle unfolded, the people on both sides immediately clashed.

At the very center of the fight were General Budo and Airmid.

Airmid, wielding a spear, faced General Budo—clad in armor and wielding lightning—without the slightest disadvantage, even slightly gaining the upper hand.

Being an Enhancer-type Nen user, every punch and kick she delivered was immensely powerful.

In terms of basic physical attributes, even Mika, at the same level, could not compare to Airmid.

After all, Enhancer-type Nen users don't really need to develop complex Nen abilities.

Their bodies, their fists and feet, are their strongest Nen abilities.

Even though Airmid and Mika had a one-level difference, their basic physical qualities were not far apart.

Therefore, in close combat, General Budo was simply no match for Airmid.

If not for the help of his Teigu, General Budo might have been defeated long ago.

However, this world is ultimately dominated by Teigu users.

With the enhancement of his Teigu, General Budo was fully capable of matching Airmid.

On the other side, the Three Beasts who followed Esdeath clashed with Tatsumi, Kurome, and Wave.

The six Teigu users went all out, fighting fiercely on the battlefield.

Apart from the Teigu users, ordinary soldiers were also participating in the battle.

Those on General Budo's side were the elite troops originally from the palace; each was a well-trained warrior.

Combined with various sophisticated equipment, this made their combat power extremely strong.

The enemies of these elite soldiers were the secret unit Night Crow led by Airmid.

Originally, Night Crow's combat strength was entirely insufficient to battle against General Budo's elite troops.

But with the prior preparations by Mika and others, these Night Crow members—who had all received the "Falna"—had greatly increased their strength.

What enhanced their strength were the special standardized weapons crafted by Gabriel.

That is, the armor and helmets they wore.

Their armor was crafted using the technology of Wave's Teigu, the Grand Chariot.

Although due to material limitations, these armors were far less powerful than Wave's Teigu.

But these equipments could be used by these elite soldiers.

Which is something Teigu cannot do.

After all, Teigu are very selective.

In addition, the helmets of these elite soldiers were crafted using the technology of the Teigu "Spectator."

Except for the deletion of the abilities "Illusion Sight," "Insight," and "X-Ray Vision," the other two abilities were perfectly replicated.

After all, many Teigu abilities are created based on specific materials.

In the absence of corresponding materials, being able to replicate some abilities is already excellent.

With the abilities of "Farsight" and "Foresight," the elite members of Night Crow had greatly enhanced their strength.

This allowed them, even when outnumbered, to contend with General Budo's elite troops.

"Looks like everything is going smoothly!"

Standing on the high wall surrounding the battlefield, Mellie looked down at the fight and said with a light smile.

General Budo's actions did not exceed her expectations.

Everything was within her grasp.

After surveying the surrounding battles, Mellie nodded in satisfaction.

"Let them play to their hearts' content; I have other important matters to attend to!"

With that, Mellie jumped down from the high wall.

Next, she needed to handle the affairs of those officials.

After her efforts over this period, the officials still remaining in the central administration were all under her control.

Of course, this only included the civil officials.

Now, she planned to take the opportunity to also take control of the military officials.

Then, by doing so, she could completely grasp the Empire's military forces.

In that case, they could proceed with their next actions.

"Let me have some fun too!"

Mellie said with a light smile.

"Bang!"

In the energy clash between Mika and Esdeath, their two abilities finally caused a violent reaction.

Seeing this, the two immediately retreated backward.

Leaving the two forces, now lacking momentum, to explode, whipping up gusts of wind that blew their hair.

But the pause between them lasted only a few seconds.

At the moment the explosion surged, they rushed at each other again, colliding fiercely.

This time, they were no longer empty-handed; each held a weapon.

One wielded a saber, the other a longsword.

And the clash of their weapons was not merely a collision of arms.

Especially Esdeath; years of battle had tightly integrated her ice abilities with her fighting style.

Now, going all out, she naturally wouldn't hold back.

Therefore, every slash of Esdeath's saber sent blades of ice flying toward Mika.

Such attacks could fully be called "Frost Swords."

"Good timing!"

Seeing the Frost Sword unleashed by Esdeath, Mika laughed heartily and swung out Flame Sword in response.

The two different elemental swords collided in mid-air.

Immediately shattering into fragments that scattered in all directions.

At the same time, the distance between Esdeath and Mika shortened.

Entering his area of expertise, Mika took the initiative, continuously pressing toward Esdeath.

Slash, sweep, thrust!

Various sword techniques continuously attacked Esdeath.

In response, Esdeath could only keep retreating to turn the tide.

The moment their swords clashed, Esdeath knew.

In close combat, she was no match for her opponent.

In Pure Martial Skill, she had lost.

This result made Esdeath very unhappy, but she had to face it.

To avoid his sharp edge, when their swords clashed, Esdeath kept retreating to deflect Mika's attacks.

At this moment, ice was naturally forming under Esdeath's soles.

Her retreat was not by stepping back but by sliding backward.

And while retreating, she did not forget to attack.

Since pure martial skill was inferior, she wouldn't compete in pure martial skill.

After all, she wasn't purely a martial artist.

What she excelled at was manipulating ice.

So, from time to time, she would create ice shields to block Mika's attacks.

And as she slid back, countless ice spikes would form around her, shooting toward Mika.

These were just appetizers.

In Esdeath's hands, various kinds of ice continuously attacked Mika.

Aiming to regain the advantage.

"Excellent footwork!"

Seeing Esdeath slide back again to dodge his attack, the smile on Mika's face became even more excited.

"Ignite—Flame of the Right!!"

In extreme excitement, Mika chanted a spell, increasing the intensity of his flames once more.

In an instant, Mika's body was enveloped in flames, endless heat radiating outward from him.

"What is this!"

Seeing her ice spikes melt before they could get close to Mika, Esdeath was momentarily stunned, then immediately leaped into the air.

"It seems my ice isn't cold enough!"

"Then let's lower the temperature further!"

Streams of cold air shot out from Esdeath's body, swirling around her.

Under the influence of this cold air, the entire Imperial Capital rapidly became colder.

In fact, even before Esdeath went all out, the entire Imperial Capital had already darkened.

Under the summoning of General Budo's Teigu "Adramelech," large swaths of thunderclouds covered the capital.

Now, under Esdeath's interference, these summoned thunderclouds began to snow; pure white snowflakes kept falling.

...

In an instant, the temperature of the entire Imperial Capital plummeted rapidly.

"This is Esdeath's power!"

In the Imperial Capital, outside the palace, Najenda and the members of Night Raid, who had secretly infiltrated, watched the scene in the sky with shock.

You have to know, it's still summer!

As the saying goes, "Snow in June"; the current scene was truly astonishing.

"Boss, you're saying this Snow is caused by General Esdeath? She can even interfere with the weather?"

Hearing Najenda's shocked words, Mine and Leone were extremely surprised.

"Yes, besides her, no one else can do such a thing!"

Najenda said resolutely.

"Indeed, only Esdeath could do something like this."

Gazing at the scene in the sky, Lubbock nodded.

Because of his admiration for Najenda, Lubbock had joined her command long ago, even before she became a general.

Therefore, he had also witnessed Esdeath's power alongside Najenda.

"Even you say so, Lubbock?"

Looking up at the dark sky, Mine said unwillingly.

"You guys, don't get too caught up; pay more attention to the surroundings!"

"Don't forget, we're still wanted criminals!"

Seeing everyone becoming despondent under Esdeath's mighty power, Bulat quickly reminded them.

Their trip this time was quite hasty.

Upon hearing unusual sounds from the Imperial Capital, they had formed a team to investigate.

But unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived outside the capital, they witnessed such a phenomenon.

Due to this sudden change, the entire Imperial Capital had become chaotic.

So Najenda and the others were able to sneak into the capital amidst the chaos and quietly arrived outside the palace.

Hearing Bulat's reminder, everyone tightened the hoods on their heads.

Hiding their faces under the hoods.

Then, they turned their gaze back to the palace.

"There must be intense conflict happening inside the palace right now, and one of the parties should be Esdeath."

Observing the state of the guards on the palace walls, Najenda concluded.

"Esdeath? Who would be fighting her inside the palace? General Budo?"

"Could it be that after returning from the border, Esdeath wants to rescue her ally Prime Minister Honest, so she's opposing General Budo?"

Hearing Najenda's words, Leone speculated.

"Probably not; the relationship between Esdeath and Honest isn't that good. She wouldn't oppose the Empire for Honest."

Najenda immediately dismissed Leone's idea.

But she herself had other thoughts.

"Could it be that the Revolutionary Army were correct, and the Emperor has really been replaced?"

"So now, the battle is between the person impersonating the Emperor and his faction, and their opponents are General Budo and General Esdeath joining forces?"

"In that case, from the current situation, this person's power must be extremely formidable!"

Thinking of this, Najenda immediately said to Chelsea, who had come along, "Chelsea, your task might become even heavier!"

"Huh?"

Hearing Najenda's words, Chelsea was first stunned, then immediately understood.

"I didn't expect it to be true!"

Chelsea couldn't help but smile wryly.

Infiltrating the palace to gather intelligence!

Even for an assassination expert like her, it was nerve-wracking.

Chelsea sighed.

Snowflakes filled the sky, continuously falling, quickly covering everything in the palace with a layer of pure white.

"If it's not 'cold' enough, then let's make it colder!"

"Try this move!"

Leaping in mid-air, Esdeath used suddenly generated ice blocks to propel herself, twisting her body to dodge to the side.

Behind her, a gigantic ice block hurled toward Mika.

"Trifling trick!"

Seeing the rapidly falling mountain-sized ice block, Mika's mouth curled up slightly.

In the next moment, flames entwined around his greatsword, continuously compressing and condensing.

Then, with a powerful swing, a massive blade of flame slashed toward the ice mountain.

"Boom!"

The fierce blade of flame sliced through the ice mountain, immediately slashing toward the rear.

"Bang!"

The massive blade of flame struck the ground, rapidly disintegrating after destroying many buildings.

Then it expanded, causing a violent explosion near Esdeath.

The storm caused by the explosion swept up thick smoke, rapidly spreading in all directions.

Under the gusts of this storm and smoke, Mika and Esdeath stood motionless on the ground.

They just quietly watched each other.

But under the impact of this explosion, even other soldiers besides Mika and Esdeath were blown away.

As for those who were killed, they were countless.

Under such an attack, even the Teigu users couldn't help but pause and dodge to the sides.

Standing quietly in a safe place, observing the surroundings, Airmid couldn't help but frown.

Under the impact of this strike, many of her subordinates were also incapacitated.

However, the reduction here wasn't death but loss of combat ability.

The armor crafted by Gabriel protected their bodies, preventing them from dying immediately; they didn't even have missing limbs.

But the shock from the explosion caused many soldiers to lose their combat capability.

Facing such a situation, Airmid raised the spear in her hand and immediately chanted a magic spell.

"Dia Fratel!"

In the next moment, under the pure white radiance, her soldiers stood up again.

They regained their combat capability.
