~POV Third~
Elite Seven was one of the few assassin squads recruited as children.
The Empire began to form these elite squads as the rebellion began to escalate due to the Empire's corruption, and the need to quell this rebellion became vital to the Empire's survival.
The Empire obtains about 100 children to take part in a cruel test in which the participants are dropped into a forest full of Dangerous Beasts and challenged to survive. The first 7 survivors were then recruited into one group and the rest of the survivors into another group.
Elite Seven is led and trained by Gozuki, who takes the strongest seven of the jungle survivors as his protege and trains them in the killer trade, asking them to refer to him as "father" and regard them as her children, but will throw them away if they disappoint her.

*bAM*
As the last assassin was killed from my Gai, one of the members of Elite Seven, he looked at his hand with a flustered feeling as the other members of Poney asked with concern, "What's Gai?"
Gai was a tall young man with a sturdy and muscular body. She has short brown hair and a scar on her left cheek. He wears a brown vest with white sleeves and a white collar. His pants are also white.
Poney is a young girl with green eyes and long blonde hair tied in a ponytail and decorated with several hairpins. He is usually seen wearing a tank top along with Yocto's subordinates, who are in the form of leggings with belts and ankle bands. He also walked barefoot.
Gai looked at his hand again as he replied to his family members in a confused tone as he felt strange from not feeling anything, "when I killed a man for the first time, I feel strange and uncomfortable. I wonder what that feeling is?"
It was then that Poney started acting arrogant by raising his hands behind his head as he spoke to Gai, "Oh? So, even the stupid Gai had things he thought of huh?"
It was then that Gai reacted with his anime style of shock and gulls even became the one to lecture this to him, "I don't want to be called a fool by someone like you!!"
Then returning to a secluded location within the rocky forest that provided shelter for their Elite Seven leader General Level Gozuki responded happily while patting his son's head, "Good, good! Mission complete! Nice work! I didn't expect you to finish him off so soon!"
Gozuki is a middle-aged man with blond hair and green eyes. He has a small beard. He was wearing a white shirt with black pants and a red scarf.
At this time Gai gets himself excited for his next mission excitedly when he asks his father what their next mission is like a child receiving candy, "Bring the next one! What bad guy should we kill next?"
It was then that Gozuki cut him off with a cynical gaze catching the careless Gai as he stood there in shock listening to his father's words, "... Don't be arrogant Gai. The outside countries and the Revolutionary Army should know about you now and will make a counterattack soon. They must have wanted to do something to the imperial assassins hiding in the shadows."
It was then that their team leader from the squad under Gozuki Najasho began to speak in agreement with his father's words, "So even the hunters will eventually be hunted, huh father?"
Najasho is a short young man with spiky blonde hair and golden eyes. He usually wears a uniform resembling a military uniform consisting of a long raincoat with a gold rank mark and a suit underneath; on some occasions, he is also seen without a suit.
Gozuki then agreed with his son with a nod as he began to explain the reality of the situation to them as honestly as possible, "Yes. You will soon have to fight against people like you. Groups operating in the shadows are best handled by other groups as such."
That's when Poney spoke next in a serious tone of voice to get used to the idea of what they'll soon be up against, "Just like the people who bullied us this time dad?"
Gozuki nodded at a glance at his daughter who kept a serious tone of voice to them as she continued to speak, "They must be spies from the North sent to protect their information channel, Ragiri."
Green further spoke of keeping the seriousness of the situation from what they had encountered from other assassins like them, "No wonder they can follow us."
Green is a young man with black hair and green eyes. He wears a green jacket with a black T-shirt and black pants. His shoes were also black, and he was wearing glasses. He wears a necklace with jewels around his neck.
It was then that Gozuki finally said to the Elite Seven group to listen very carefully to his words as all eyes were on him to listen to the wisdom he offered, "So you understand right? Realize that your work difficulties will jump dramatically. The target itself can be a trap. Stay focused, and don't let your guard down until the mission is completely finished!"
Tsukushi is a young girl with yellow eyes and short light brown hair. He also has a plump figure. She usually wears a brown and white dress and brown boots.
Cornelia is a young girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a long white shirt with black pants and shoes. He also wore silver earrings.
And lastly, the last member of Akame was a beautiful young girl with long black hair who reached her knees and red eyes. She wore a white sleeveless dress with a red collar and wore a red belt that had a red side skirt cover over a white skirt. He wears it with long black socks and black shoes.
When they get serious, the messenger owl was sent to near Gozuki when he saw the Imperial Army Coat of Arms on it as he picked up the letter and read the contents as Elite Seven was there seeing another new mission appear for they think they're okay.
Reading the contents of the letter, Gozuki raised his eyebrows deducing what the next mission he thought in a serious tone, 'Ok looks like we are not finished in the Northern Region of the Empire just yet. The first seems to be about the international trade routes used by the Revolutionary Army to obtain revenue has been found and we are tasked with eliminating the rebels?"
Reading the first part of the mission of obliterating the rebels of the Revolutionary army to earn an income was easy enough for him to understand but reading the notice from the Empire in the second half of the letter surprised him a little.
Rereading the second half of the mission from the Empire, he made sure that what he read was correct as he thought, 'It is also worth noting that the attack in Tensui Village failed as they captured some of the remaining witnesses to discuss what was happening in the area as the new killing units of the Terror Group were eliminated or went rogue together Bill and no bodies were recovered from them except two because five were fakes.'
Narrowing her eyes at this, she continued to read more about who could do such a job as well as having time to create a fake body, 'The Imperial Soldiers listed under General Nouken the Cutter were completely wiped out except for the only ones left to tell the details of what happened. The mission was considered a failure because they lost two [Extases] and [Yatsufusa] Teigu. Beware of the man wearing the mask who has a subtle smile with a flash of lightning on it?'
After reading the report, they decided to give the person a nickname as well as a picture drawn from a photo of the person who now exists wanting a poster on it, 'Let die or live 'Disaster Walk' essential abilities: Use of blue fire, lightning, ice generation, erosion, and fluent in CQC. If you see this guy catch or kill when you see him. The last Western Region crime was seen for killing Tensui Village and the murder charge as a sadistic and cruel act.'
Gozuki on his part grinned at a wanted poster called 'Disaster Walk' as he laughed a little inside his head as he read the wanted poster amusedly, 'Once again the Empire found a way to hand over their problems to others by faking missions to trap the man. But still, they said he was last seen in the Western Region so he could go three exits from the village to the North, South, or Middle...'
As Gozuki thinks about what to do with the new fugitive, he threw away those thoughts for a while while handing the wanted poster over to his children as they all looked disgusted at such a person wandering around.
Gozuki sometimes wonders how well he manipulates his children to show how 'right' the Empire is and how useful propaganda is to make his children eat it all as he prepares them.
But that's when Gozuki talks to Akame in a private location to him as he follows confused as to why the conversation is sudden as he explains to her the truth that is hard to swallow even though there are no signs of it but think of the most likely conclusion after they use it. , "Huh... Akame there is no other way to say this but.your sister Kurome along with the first mission of the Terror Group unit..had been annihilated by the 'Walking Catastrophe' since their first mission was there. ... I'm sorry..."
Hearing that Akame's voice broke the news as Gozuki acted dejected at losing the group as he asked her expectantly, "Dad you can't be serious Good? I mean, it must be a joke that my sister doesn't ..."
But the expression Gozuki revealed told her was more than enough as she cried over the loss of her sister who hugged her father as she swore to him, "No! No, no, no! Not Kurome, please why..."
Hugging her tightly while acting concerned while she thought inwardly in a tone of surprised voice, 'Huh? It went better than I expected. Must thank 'Walking Calamity' for his useful appearance makes Akame more manageable and loyal to our cause.'
As she hugged her father letting her down, she promised herself a vengeful tone, Walking Calamity... I swear I'll take your life for killing my only family member alive! I AM GRATEFUL TO KUROME!!'

Elsewhere near the border of the Hakuro River, far away from Toushi City, Tatsumi suddenly wanted to sneeze when Bun Horn brought him around the rocky forest as he spoke without a care, "Achoo! Ugh... what the fuck... Who is that? talk to me behind my back!"
It was then that Bun Horn showed him the location where the powerful Danger Beast was located when he— asked looking at a huge valley as he asked doubtfully, "You sure this is the right place Horn Bun so I can find a strong one around this part?"
Bun Horn nodded as he began to hide inside Tatsumi's clothes for safety making him flustered until he heard a sharp roar in the distance.
"RAAAARRHH!!"
Tatsumi looked up to take a look as he revealed a flat expression at the Danger Beast who was flying in annoyance, "Oh, you must be joking now!"
