  Kurome's eyes widened in shock, but before she could even turn around, Roy delivered a swift chop to her neck.

  "Ugh..." she groaned, her eyelids growing heavy as darkness ed her.

  Roy caught her before she could fall, a sigh esg his lips.

  He had promised Akame he would bring Kurome back, but he hadn't expected it to happen like this.

  'Well, Kurome be quite stubborn,' he thought, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

  With a sigh, Roy spread his Devil wings and took to the sky, carrying Kurome in his arms.

  Mt. Fake wasn't far from Night Raid's hideout. Within half an hour, Roy the base.

  "I'm back!" he announced.

  The Night Raid members rushed out to greet him, their faces filled with surprise and curiosity.

  "Roy's back!"

  "Wele back!"

  "Who's that little girl in your arms?"

  "Don't tell me you kidnapped her!"

  ...

  The base was abuzz with excitement upon his return.

  But their attention quickly shifted to the unscious girl in his arms.

  "Ahem... Don't make any assumptions. This is Akame's younger sister, Kurome," Roy expined.

  He looked at Akame. "Akame, I brought your sister back."

  "Akame's sister? They do look alike!"

  The others observed the two sisters, notig their striking resembnce.

  Akame approached Roy, her expression filled with sadness as she looked at Kurome.

  The two sisters, who had once relied on each other for survival, were now separated and pitted against each other due to the Empire's darkness.

  Their reunion was bittersweet.

  "What happeo Kurome?" Akame asked, seeing that her sister was unscious.

  "Well..." Roy hesitated.

  "You know Kurome isn't easily persuaded, so I had to... take a more direct approach," he admitted sheepishly.

  He had initially po vince Kurome to e willingly, but he had resorted to knog her out.

  "Is she a member of the Jaegers?" Chelsea asked.

  "Yes, she is. And she's very strong," Roy firmed, then turo Akame. "I have a pn..."

  To break Kurome's stubbornness and resolve their flict, he had to let her die once.

  Kurome was obsessed with killing Akame.

  And knowing that she didn't have much time left to live only intensified her obsession.

  His pn was to have Akame kill Kurome, then he would resurrect her as a Devil.

  This would not only resolve the flict between the sisters but also heal Kurome's body.

  And, as a bonus, Roy would gain another servant.

  It was a in situation.

  Akame, after hearing his pn, agreed without hesitation.

  They went to a clearing and waited for Kurome to wake up.

  ...

  Kurome sained sciousness. The first thing she saw was Akame.

  "Onee-!"

  "Kurome."

  They stared at each other, lost in memories.

  "It's been so long, Onee-. You alrotected me, but in the end, you betrayed me," Kurome said with a sad smile.

  Akame recalled their childhood together and began to speak.

  "We had no o each other. The only pce that needed us was the Empire. We became assassins."

  "Elimihe root of evil before it cause chaos, and bring happio people."

  "That's what they instilled in us. That's how they raised us."

  "We followed orders, killing those deemed traitors to the Empire."

  "Because we believed it was the right thing to do..."

  Kurome's voice rose in agitation. "But... why did you betray the Empire and join Night Raid? Why?"

  "Do you know how much it hurt to be left behind?"

  "Ever sihat day, all I've wanted is to kill you!"

  "Will killing me bring you salvation?" Akame asked calmly.

  "There's no such thing as salvation. But if I kill you, you'll belong only to me," Kurome replied with a twisted smile.

  She drew her Teigu, "March of the Dead: Yatsufusa."

  Two figures appeared behind her: Nata and Doya, the puppets trolled by her Teigu.

  "The's fight!" Akame decred, drawing her own Teigu, "Murasame."

  The battle began.

  <><><><>

  Kurome was incredibly strong. In the inal story, she had single-handedly held off the entire Night Raid team with the eight puppets trolled by her Teigu.

  Although most of her puppets were destroyed, Kurome had escaped unscathed.

  She had even mao kill Chelsea when Chelsea tried to assassinate her.

  Akame, without having mastered Murasame's trump card, was slightly weaker than Kurome.

  However, Kurome didn't seem to be fighting with her full strength.

  The two sisters cshed, their words filled with accusations and justifications, but her could sway the other.

  Suddenly, Kurome iionally created an opening.

  Akame seized the opportunity and charged.

  Their bdes pierced each other, as if they inteo die together.

  But just as Kurome's bde was about to reach Akame, it veered off course, missing its target.

  Akame's bde, however, pierced Kurome's heart.

  "Kurome!" Akame gasped, her eyes wide with shock.

  Kurome embraced Akame, whispering in her ear, "Onee-, I love you."

  Akame's body trembled as tears streamed down her face.

  Their long and painful flict had finally e to an end.

  Roy approached them, looking at the lifeless Kurome with a sigh.

  It was clear that Kurome had iionally let Akame kill her.

  It was her way of endiwisted life.

  'The me give her a new life,' Roy thought.

  Akame looked at him with pleading eyes.

  "Don't worry, Akame. Kurome will have a new life. I promise," Roy reassured her, gently patting her head.

  He lifted Kurome's body and used his magic to levitate her.

  A rge, blue magic circle appeared.

  Roy ted the intation, his voice filled with power and authority.

  "By the name of Roy Lucifuge, I and thee, Kurome, to bey servant Devil, reborn as my Knight!"

  A Knight piece merged into Kurome's body, and Devil wings sprouted from her back.

  After a while, Kurome gently desded to the ground.

  She opened her eyes, looking at Roy with fusion.

  "Kurome, you have been reborn. Now, you belong to me," Roy said with a smile, patting her head.

  "Yes, Master!" Kurome replied with a bright smile, throwing her arms around him.

  "Just call me Onii-, Kurome."

  "Okay, Onii-!"

  Akame, seeing her sister resurrected, also smiled.

  "Onee-!" Kurome looked at Akame and hugged her tightly.

  "Kurome!"

  The two sisters embraced, their bond as strong as it had been in their childhood.

  Roy was relieved that he had finally resolved the flict between the sisters.

  He felt a deep sympathy for the two girls who had endured so much hardship.

  Akame and Kurome separated, and Akame approached Roy, her cheeks flushed.

  "It's time to fulfill our promise," she said.

  'Promise? Could it be...?' Roy's heart leaped with joy as he embraced Akame.

  "Onee- is going to bee Roy's servant too? That's great! Now we be together forever!" Kurome excimed with a cheerful smile.

  Akame blushed even harder.

  Roy didn't waste any time and begaransformation ritual.

  "By the name of Roy Lucifuge, I and thee, Akame, to bey servant Devil, Reborn as my Knight!"

  Another Knight piece emerged and merged into Akame's body.

  Both Akame and Kurome were speed-type fighters, so the Knight piece erfect for them.

  Soon, Akame's transformation was plete.

  As Devils, both sisters' strength reached the Peak of High-bsp;Devil, just a step away from Ultimate-Css.

  However, breaking through that final barrier wouldn't be easy.

  Roy, holding both sisters' hands, returo the Night Raid headquarters.

  The ht Raid members, having learned about the sisters' past, were filled with sympathy for Kurome.

  That night, they held a feast to celebrate Kurome's new life.

  Akame and Kurome, the two gluttons, ate until they were stuffed.

  ...

  The day, Akame barged into Roy's room.

  "Roy, it's terrible! Kurome is gone!" she cried.

  "Huh?" Roy woke up with a start.

  "What are you talking about, Akame?"

  "I said Kurome is gone!" Akame repeated, her voice filled with panic. She didn't eveo notice Sheele, who was sleeping beside Roy.

  "Kurome is gone?" Roy was fused.

  "Mmm..."

  Just then, the b ulled back, and a head of bck hair emerged. It was Kurome.

  "Onee-, what are you talking about?" she mumbled sleepily.

  Akame's eye twitched as she saw Kurome emerge from Roy's bed.

  She had slept with Kurome st night, but when she woke up this m, Kurome was o be found.

  She had rushed to Roy's room, only to find her sister in his bed.

  Akame felt a sense of helplessness.

  "Onii-'s bed is so fortable! Onee-, do you want to join us?" Kurome invited with a smile.

  Akame blushed but nodded. "Sure."

  Roy eechless.

  Why were they both here? This small bed couldn't fit all of them.

  He sighed. It seemed he would have to expand the bed today.

  He g Sheele, who was still sleeping soundly beside him. "And this idiot, I told her not to sleep on the edge of the bed, but she never listens."

  He gently moved Sheele to the ter of the bed, then got up.

  Meanwhile, Esdeath had been looking forward to switg parthat night.

  She was eager to showcase her strength to Roy!!

  But when night came, Roy and Kurome didn't show up...

  Esdeath and Wave searched for them.

  Esdeath initially thought they might have entered some trouble and were deyed.

  However, after searg fruitlessly, she realized that Roy and Kurome had likely left.

  Esdeath was heartbroken aermio find Roy.

  Dr. Stylish, another member of the Jaegers, followed the trail Roy had left, along with his Stylish Squad.

  Roy hadn't expected Dr. Stylish to find them, especially since he had flown back.

  <><><><>

  That evening, at the Night Raid hideout, Lubbock rushed to Roy.

  "Roy, it's bad! My perimeter barrier has detected a rge number of people approag."

  "Oh?" Roy looked at Lubbo surprise. He didn't knoould e looking for them at this time.

  "Gather all Night Raid members. Prepare for battle," he ordered.

  "Yes!"

  Once everyone was assembled, Roy led them to a hilltop overlooking the approag enemies.

  They saw a group of strange-looking individuals with white masks crawling towards them.

  And among them...

  "It's Dr. Stylish!" Kurnized him instantly.

  If Dr. Stylish was here, then Esdeath...

  Kurome sed the area but couldn't find Esdeath or the other Jaegers.

  "It seems only Dr. Stylish has e," Roy ented.

  He hadn't expected Dr. Stylish to find them, especially since he had flown back.

  However, pared to the inal story, Dr. Stylish had arrived a day ter, perhaps because it took him loo find their trail.

  But it didn't matter. In the inal story, Night Raid had been caught off guard due to a drinking party, allowing Dr. Stylish to unch a successful surprise attack.

  But this time, they were prepared.

  "But, Lubbock, Akame, you take the left fnk."

  "Saeko, Leone, Sheele, you take the right fnk."

  "Mine, Chelsea, Kurome, you'll attack from the front with me. oal is to eliminate all enemies."

  "And be careful of poison gas and their suicide bomber infantry."

  Roy issued his ands swiftly.

  "Yes!"

  The Night Raid members charged towards Dr. Stylish and his Stylish Squad.

  This wasn't the Night Raid of the inal story.

  Not only were Sheele and But alive, but they also had Roy, Saeko, Kurome.

  They were strohan ever before.

  The battle began.

  Dr. Stylish's infantry was no match for the Night Raid.

  Even his elite modified humans, Toby and Trooma, were easily defeated when fag three Night Raid members at once.

  Moreover, Akame's strength was now parable to Esdeath's.

  Dr. Stylish's forces crumbled upon tact.

  "This is bad, Dr. Stylish! We've been ambushed by Night Raid. They're incredibly strong. We've already suffered heavy casualties," Mimi, a woman with rge ears, reported to Dr. Stylish.

  She was one of Team Stylish, enhanced with superhuman hearing.

  Dr. Stylish took out a remote trol. "In that case, these research materials are no longer needed," he said coldly, pressing a button.

  The infantry's stomachs suddenly swelled.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Explosioed across the battlefield.

  However, thanks to Roy's warning, the Night Raid members had taken cover and were unharmed.

  "Dr. Stylish, none of them were injured," Me, another member of Team Stylish with enhanced eyesight, reported.

  Dr. Stylish's expression darkened.

  "How is the poison gas dispersal going?"

  "Dr. Stylish, the wind is blowing in the opposite dire. We 't spread the gas," Hana, the st member of Team Stylish with an enhanced sense of smell, reported.

  "There's no point in f it. Let's retreat!"

  Seeing that his tactics were iive, Dr. Stylish fled.

  "Dr. Stylish!!"
