Chapter 385: [383] Four Rakshasa Demons!
"Where is she?"
Kurome's cold, unwavering gaze was fixed on August. However, her tone had softened, influenced by the earlier conversation.
"She's with Night Raid. At present, she's one of their ace members."
"Night Raid..."
At that moment, Kurome's eyes brimmed with a chilling light and murderous intent. Whatever the reasons, Akame had betrayed her—and the Empire. This was an undeniable fact.
Although Kurome herself held little loyalty to the Empire, she couldn't abandon it. She needed the Empire's 'medicine' to survive. Akame, however, had chosen to forsake her sister, leaving her behind for something else—whether it was justice or some other ideal.
Esdeath observed Kurome's sudden shift in demeanor with intrigue. Despite August being new to the Imperial Capital, he seemed to know Kurome's past with surprising clarity.
"Lord August, how exactly is this life potion made? I've never seen such a flawless elixir before," Dr. Stylish interjected, holding up a small vial of the potion. Blood stains on his arm revealed that he had tested the potion's efficacy on himself.
Such recklessness seemed natural for a scientist—a research-obsessed maniac at heart.
