3rd person POV:

Soldier: Saikyuu-san... Is it really necessary to run away since the Supreme Teigu has appeared ?

Saikyuu: Even though it is a good Teigu, you will lose if you don't use it well. But if we escape now, we can run away completely. Our Lord is too kind... We can return after our victory, and even if we lose, we can rebuild our nation with my Teigu.

*Saikyuu's Teigu: The World book, Rongo Rongo. It contains every single map in the world. Especially in the Empire, there are every single detailed information including mountains and the land. On the last page, there are even predictions of natural disasters which will happen in the future.*

Saikyuu: 'If this kind of thing happen, it is not good to be the Prime Minister who will be targeted first. Supporting from the back and surviving at the first time, that is how I live...'

Akame: I won't let you go. I will murder every single one of you who made the citizens suffer.

Soldiers: A- AKAME !!

Saikyuu: 'Right now... There is a battle which will be a history happening outside... Even at this basement here, you don't let me go and target... Me.'

Saikyuu: What I want to train is, the ones who kill the darkness inside the darkness

Saikyuu: 'Really;.. What a perfect assassin... !'

Akame: Target Saikyuu. Eliminate.

Saikyuu: 'Think of it, one sentence that can save me ! Akame is originally from us ! There must be something I can use... ! If I overcome this situation, I can do it... Something... ! Something... !' ... I- If you save my life... Erm-

Saikyuu: 'Have no mercy... Don't give them time to talk... The one who ordered to train her like that... Was me...'

Akame: ... This book is a Teigu ? Let's take it to boss first, maybe Tao would know something about it... Who's there !

Suzuka: I am surprised. I came here for a mission, but Saikyuu got killed already.

Akame: Suzuka !!

Suzuka: It's been such a long time. I don't want to kill you, to be honest, but since we met each other, it is my job as well.

*BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR*

Suzuka: I activated a trap to destroy the basement. Because I'm not sure whether I can win against you or not, let's die together. I learned this from your comrades- !

*ZBUNK*

Suzuka: Well I won't die anyways ! Then I will go first !

Akame: Tsk !

Emperor: This guy... Fighting against me like this... What is this guy... Aren't you fierce !! This Supreme Teigu... !!

Tatsumi: 'he's still standing back after seeing my rush... He is not even using all of his Teigu. If I keep attacking, I can win !'

Honest: SUPREME TEIGU ! HIDDEN CARD ACTIVATE !!

*GUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHH*

Tatsumi: ... Is that a new attack ?!

Emperor: ... What... What is happening... ?! PRIME MINISTER ! WHAT HAPPENED PRIME MINISTER ! HONEST ?!

Honest: Lord, you are too kind. It leads to the weakness of this Teigu. I was worried about it, so I have prepared a hidden move. This is a combination of alchemy and Teigu !

Tatsumi: It transformed ?!

Emperor: ... You fools. Trying to go against the Empire. AS A RULER, I WILL JUDGE EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU RIGHT NOW !!

Tatsumi: ... Normal citizens... And even their own soldiers... Were killed together.

Emperor: THIS IS... A CELEBRATION OF MY NEW NATION !

*B-TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM*

Honest: How beautiful... It feels like I am looking at a technology from the far future. According to my word, to my command, it will be activated. And now that this happened, both my lord the Teigu will not stop killing their enemy until all of them die ! It is your resistance's fault that you guys pushed until here. Now just get killed quietly~.

Your POV:

"Urg... It's gotta be the second worst hole I ever had through my gut..."

Leone: T- Tao !! Don't move, okay ?! We'll get you to the rear lines and-

"Leone. You saw like me what he just started doing. There won't be any army to retreat to by the time we get there. And besides... I know which of my organs have been punctured by that..."

Leone: ... ... That disgusting pig will pay !

"Wait. Before dealing with him... There's the question of that giant thing right there... Gurk !"

Leone: Stop talking ! You're in no shape to do that... And without the Holy Retriever, how are you even planning on stopping that thing ?!

"And that's exactly why you must help me ! If I die here, then I won't have accomplished anything ! By an Emperor that thing was created, for an Emperor it was supposed to work, and at an Emperor's hand it shall be put down !"

Leone: E- Even if you say that.. There's just no way we can get closer to this thing... Tatsumi was having some trouble with it before, but now...

"It's true... If only there was someone else..."

Kurome: ... What kind of weapon did they use... ?

Wave: Are you going to kill every single living thing here... ?

Kurome: Wave...

Emperor: You vermin who disturbed this country, which my parents loved and cherished... You rebel scums who took my brother away... I WILL PURGE YOU ALL ! EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU !!

Emperor: Insect. You are annoying me...

Tatsumi: 'It didn't just get more weapons... It became harder as well ?!'

Emperor: Before I move on, it will be better to kill you first properly.

Citizens: Oh... Oh no...

Tatsumi: It was... Dangerous...

Emperor: There was an openiiiing~... ! Really, you annoyed me. This is the strongest attack !

Emperor: ... Execution complete.

Tatsumi: ... 'I... Lost... Huh. Mine... Sorry. My body moved on its own. Still... I will return. I will return, to where you are...'

Tatsumi: 'Eh... I, still can move ? I thought the armor was broken too... How ?'

Emperor: What... ?! You took this attack head-on and are still standing... There's a limit for being an irrelevant bastard...

Tatsumi: ... I will stop you... No matter what !

Emperor: For the Emperor's dignity... I must execute you no matter what !!

"Hmm... What the hell did Honest made him go through..."

Tatsumi: Gah ! Don't appear... Wait, what are you even doing here... ? Weren't you... What happened to you ?!

"... The coming end of this Empire... And that thing needs to come down. That's why I'm here. I have a way to put it to rest."

Tatsumi: If you say so... But so long as he keeps on attacking, finding an opening to strike will be difficult... And if he uses the same wide-range stuff...

"Look to the sky, Tatsumi. Help will come to those who keep going forward."

Tatsumi: ... What ?

Emperor: ANOTHER BUG ?! HOW MANY OF YOU ARE THERE ?! I WILL FIND YOU ALL !!

Tatsumi: Wave, right... Why are you... ?!

Wave: Let me tell you, Kurome is the best girlfriend !

Kurome: Wave... Isn't the Empire bothering you ? You're worried about the citizens because of that loud explosion, right... You can go and check. Your energy recovered so I'm sure you can reach there fast. I will wait here.

Wave: ... What are you saying ? I determined to live for you. They will catch me and the fact that I'm faking my death.

Kurome: But still, it is bothering you, right ?

Wave: ... Of course. That mushroom cloud... It is not even a war ! Now... The citizens are in pain !

Kurome: ... One of the reason I liked Wave, there was "Kindness". At a time like this, you are the one to care about everyone, right ?

Wave: Kurome...

Wave: I don't want to waste Wave's precious time ! It was enough for you to get out of the army. You will listen to whatever I say, right ? Then go. And you must come back ! I am okay with waiting for a while.

Wave: ... Very well. You did kill half of the monsters who attacked us. Even these monsters... They were probably test subjects who ran away... The Empire is doing that kind of things a lot...And what kind of order was given this time...

Wave: I will go and check, and save those who are in pain.

Wave: But I promise, that I will return to you.

Kurome: ... Okay.

Wave: So this happened.

"Saving the innocents, huh ?"

Wave: I also remembered that I had a debt to you. I will pay that back, for me to stay true to myself.

Tatsumi: Debt ? What do you mean... 'Is he talking about that... ?'

Wave: So you have a plan to take down that huge Teigu, right ? Let's go for it, your majesty.

"Don't you even dare to start calling me that... It's almost funny, isn't it ? How guys are never as strong as when a girl is on the line."

Emperor: Short-range scan for enemy targets completed... So according to these readings, those insects are the only ones here. Two of them are human, but the other is registering as... It matters not, I'll crush them all ! I'LL MAKE SURE TO GRIND THAT TENACIOUS STRUGGLE OUT OF YOUR BONES ONCE AND FOR ALL !!

Wave: So what's the plan here ?!

"I need to get inside that thing ! It's powered by the Imperial blood, so as long as I make it to the controls alive, I can stop it !

Emperor: You insects... DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE MIGHT OF THE SUPREME TEIGU !!

Wave: 'Lend me your strength. Ran... !'

Tatsumi: ... 'We'll need more power, if we're going to defeat that abomination... More... More... Power !!'

Emperor: ... That's... This is bad !

Emperor: That filth... he's forced me, in the Supreme Teigu... To take on a defensive stance... !!'

"Tatsumi, while I welcome any help, you're pushing yourself way too far over the edge with this one !"

Wave: What's happening... ?

Tatsumi: I've... Evolved... This is the power up, I told you before. If we don't attack the same spot simultaneously, we'll never generate enough force to pierce through that thing. FOLLOW MY LEAD ! WE'RE GOING IN !!

Wave: NO NEED TO TELL ME TWICE !!

"A breach is enough ! Give it all you've got !!"

Emperor: YOU GOD-DAMNED FREAKS !! HAVE A TASTE OF THE SUPREME CANNON !!

Wave: AS IF WE'D LET YOU FIRE !!

Emperor: When he countered with his Mastema, he left several of these feathers scattered around my cannon port... Waiting for the opportune time to detonate them... AND NOW HAVE MANAGED TO PENETRATE THROUGH MY DEFENSES !!

Wave: You better get ready, man ! We're going at it full force !

"I told you, I don't care if I lose a limb with that ! So RAM THAT SHIT WITH FULL THROTTLE !! TIME TO END THIS !!"

Emperor: AAAAAAAGGGHHHH !!

Tatsumi: Hell yeah ! We've finally pushed him back a bit ! I owe you one, Wave.

Wave: I came here to protect the citizens that were evacuating. Once that's done, I'm pulling out myself. Helping you guys just falls in line with that objective.

Tatsumi: ... You always stick to your guns, consequences be damned. That idealism of yours... Don't ever lose it.

Tatsumi: Ah... We need to clear up one last thing, before you go... The greatest catch of 'em all.. Is Mine, hands down.

Wave: You're nuts. It's definitely Kurome.

Emperor: Urg... I... I am the Emperor ! They would dare to raise their hand against me... Raining down blow after blow upon me like this... ?! Even if I took the heads of every last one of their kin, it would still not be enough to atone for this !

"To think that even after all of that, you'd still have the gall to call yourself the Emperor... You stopped being an Emperor of anything long ago."

Makoto: SHUT YOUR MOUTH !! Only I can see what is to come !! The victor of this battle... What awaits this Great Empire... It shall thrive for another millenium~ !

"YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH, YOU IGNORANT LITTLE SHIT !! I DIDN'T COME ALL THE WAY HERE TO HEAR YOU GLOAT ABOUT THIS DEFEAT !!"

Makoto: Urk !

"For once in your lifetime... Why don't you take a look around by yourself instead of just eating whatever Honest is feeding you ?! Take a look at what's happening around you here and now !!"

Makoto: Why... How dare they run away... ? Fleeing in the presence of the enemy is punishable by execution... !

"And you even have to ask ?! They're running because the very Empire, the very ruler they were supposed to protect has turned against them, AND STARTED TO SLAUGHTER HIS OWN PEOPLE !! THE SECOND YOU STARTED RAINING INDISCRIMINATE FIRE, VICTORY STOPPED BEING AN OPTION, YOU WERE ALL ALONE !!"

Makoto: W... WH... WHAT INSOLENT COWARDICE... !! YOU TREASONOUS WRETCHES !! THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ALL I'VE DONE FOR YOU ?! WITH BETRAYAL ?!

"... You've been fed lies throughout your entire life... So I guess it's up to me to end this, like always... Just stay still, And let big bro handle this."
