Akame ga Kill: Starting with Dual Kamui-Chapter 121: Mine’s Misunderstanding

"It might be worth seeking help from Night Raid. They likely don't know that the Three Beasts are impersonating them and slaughtering officials from the Conscience Faction."

Blayn nodded thoughtfully. "I'll head to Night Raid and be back soon."

With that, he used Kamui's Dimension to teleport himself outside Night Raid's base.

Night Raid quickly sensed an intruder, only to discover it was Blayn. Wasting no time, he immediately explained his purpose, informing them of Minister Honest's scheme.

"This is really happening? The Three Beasts are impersonating us to attack Conscience Faction officials..."

Najenda's expression turned serious as she grasped the gravity of the situation.

"That's right. I don't know what your past relationship with General Budo was like, but if you don't stop the Three Beasts now, his attitude toward you will sink to rock bottom."

Najenda nodded. "Our relationship with General Budo has never been great. To someone as rigid as him, the Revolutionary Army is something he'd never tolerate. But at the very least, he hasn't actively sought to target us."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "If we let Minister Honest succeed, we'll end up in direct conflict with General Budo. Having Esdeath, the empire's so-called 'strongest,' is already a handful. If we also have to deal with someone of Budo's caliber..."

After pondering for a while, she said, "You want to protect the Conscience Faction officials, right? We don't want them to be persecuted either, so we'll definitely help."

While the Revolutionary Army's ultimate goal was to overthrow the empire, they had no intention of targeting Conscience Faction officials. In fact, they would need them when it came time to rebuild a new nation.

"Two or three people should be enough," Blayn suggested.

Najenda glanced at the others. "If it's just two or three, let's see if there are any volunteers."

Hearing this, Mine hesitated. She wanted to help Blayn, but if she volunteered too quickly, would it seem too obvious...?

"Me, me, me!"

Before Mine could decide, Chelsea eagerly raised her hand.

Akame followed shortly after. "I'll go too."

She likely volunteered because of Kurome.

At that moment, Mine realized she needed to act fast. If she didn't make a decision now, she might regret it later. Blayn only needed three people—if others stepped up first, forcing her way in afterward would seem even more deliberate.

"I'll go too. I want to help."

She spoke without hesitation this time.

"Alright, you three then."

Najenda nodded.

Blayn had no objections either.

Truthfully, the best candidate to deal with the Three Beasts was Bulat. In the original story, he had single-handedly fought all three, instantly killing one before taking down another, only to succumb to poison in the end. His sheer strength allowed him to fight on par with Esdeath even without his Teigu. But fate had cut his story short—what some might call a "plot-induced death."

This time, however, the task fell to Chelsea, Akame, and Mine instead.

"Thanks."

Blayn thanked Chelsea, Akame, and Mine.

"No need to be so formal," Chelsea said with a smile.

"You're welcome," Akame replied with a slight smile—after all, she was mainly here for Kurome.

"It's nothing," Mine muttered, surprisingly without her usual tsundere attitude.

"By the way, you didn't bring Kurome with you this time?" Akame suddenly asked Blayn.

"It all happened so suddenly, so I came alone first," Blayn explained. "But if you want to see Kurome, you can meet her at my place later."

"Actually, there's something else I wanted to talk to you about—Kurome's condition."

Akame's expression turned serious. "You know as well as I do that her body has been severely damaged by those drugs. I heard of a place where a secret spring is said to have restorative properties. If possible, I hope you can take her there to recover."

"Of course, no problem."

Blayn had no reason to refuse. He wanted Kurome and the others to regain their health and extend their lifespans—otherwise, he wouldn't have taken such care in regulating their drug intake. Whether or not this mysterious hot spring truly had miraculous effects, it was worth a try.

"Alright, let's head out. Time isn't on our side."

With that, Blayn led Akame and the others away from the Night Raid base. However, after walking only a short distance, he suddenly stopped.

Seeing his unexpected pause, the three girls looked at him in confusion.

"Close your eyes," Blayn said.

"Why?" Mine asked suspiciously.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Blayn had no intention of explaining. He planned to use spatial teleportation to bring them to his base, and since it would happen in an instant, there was no need for unnecessary questions.

If he told them it was a form of instant travel, there was always the chance that curiosity might lead them to peek.

Unlike Mine, Chelsea and Akame didn't question him and simply followed instructions, closing their eyes without hesitation.

Watching Blayn act so mysteriously, Mine's mind began to wander.

He suddenly wants us to close our eyes and refuses to say why... could he be planning something...?

As the thought crossed her mind, her face flushed slightly.

Wait, is this guy seriously about to do that right now?!

Even though her rational side resisted the idea, her body instinctively complied. She shut her eyes as instructed and even unconsciously adjusted her posture—lifting her chin slightly and rising onto the tips of her toes.

In the next instant, Blayn activated his teleportation. In the blink of an eye, they moved from the Night Raid base to Kamui's Dimension and then directly to his base inside the Seiga Cavern.

Mine, still unaware of what had happened, remained frozen in her previous stance.

"You can open your eyes now," Blayn finally said.

Chelsea was the first to open hers, and the moment she saw Mine's rather... suggestive posture, a mischievous grin spread across her face.

Given that she had long since noticed Mine's feelings for Blayn, she instantly put two and two together.

Leaning close to Mine's ear, Chelsea whispered teasingly, "Oh my, Mine, you're such a naughty girl~"
