Chapter 94 - Reunion After 7 Years (1)
It's been an hour later since Kyle started to wait for his unit captain to arrive, there was an awkward atmosphere between him and the imperial guard, he knows that he had to do something because this atmosphere was unbearable to him, suddenly the imperial guard realized that he didn't know Kyle's name yet, so he asked.
"By the way sir? What is your name?"
Hearing the guard, Kyle thought. 'This guy is becoming more respectful to me, even though currently he has a higher rank than me, I guess it's true that a powerful person would be respected everywhere.'
He replied. "Kobayashi Kyle, that's my name."
To him it was no big deal to tell his name, the imperial guard suddenly thought that his name was somewhat familiar, he knew that he probably heard it somewhere however he couldn't remember where…
Finally, Kyle's unit captain arrived, he looked at him and said. "Are you the recruit?"
Kyle nods, and replies. "That's right, are you perhaps my unit captain?"
Even though he said that he immediately recognized that this person was Ogre. This guy was a tutorial boss in the original plot in the standard of this world. He is a very strong person but so what? He died by the hands of the Night Raid, he thought. 'So, I'm going to get assigned to the imperial police unit huh…'
Although he didn't mind, he preferred to be assigned to the imperial army unit, because he could roam around the castle, and he might see Esdeath while roaming around, but his luck didn't help him today.
Speaking of Night Raid, he wondered if the members were still the same as the original because, from the information that he gathered so far, it seems that Esdeath changed for good.
Also, he got to know that Esdeath killed Prime Minister Honest as brutally as she could, just because he joked about Esdeath marrying his bastard son.
Regarding this matter, he thought. 'I wonder if it's my fault or it's just Honest pissing Esdeath off? But to be honest I got a feeling that it's because of me.'
"That's right, I'm the captain of the imperial police Ogre, you follow me back to our HQ."
"Yes sir!" Kyle saluted at him, his action made Ogre a bit surprised, then he smiled.
"Not bad, not bad at all respecting your future superior without teaching you a lesson, you're a promising lad. I'm expecting a lot from you!" Ogre gave him his approval; most of the imperial guards are uneducated as they joined the empire.
And it's a problem for the empire to have uneducated recruits, so after they qualify as an imperial guard, they would have a month of educational training. It doesn't matter If they like it or not, they have to be educated before they could become an official imperial guard.
"Haha, thank you for the praise captain." He said with a happy expression, however inside his mind. 'Bullsh*t! Promising my ass I don't believe you a little bit corrupted motherfucker.'
"Haha, you deserve it now follow me back to the imperial police HQ lad!" Then Ogre walked toward their HQ, while Kyle was following him.
After he left, the imperial guard was alone thinking. 'Kobayashi Kyle... where did I hear this from….ah!'
The imperial guard finally remembered, and as soon as he realized who Kyle was, his face was filled with excitement!
This was his chance of becoming a high-ranking official! Because Kyle was the person who is his general looking for!
It was back than a month ago, the entire empire was looking for a person named Kobayashi Kyle along with his unclear portrait, however despite everything single imperial guards looking for this person, no one succeeded nor they found a single clue.
So quickly it was forgotten by the majority of guards, they thought that their general was just punishing them to look for a person who doesn't exist!
But right now, he found the person that his general was looking for! Without hesitation he left his post, he thought. 'Screw this! I don't care if I get scolded but this is my chance of quick and fast promotion! I have to quickly let General Esdeath know this!'
He dashed toward Inside the castle-like his life was on the line!

At the Imperial police HQ, it was more lively than he expected it to be, as they went inside the HQ, the lower ranking Imperial police immediately did a salute action, which is showing their respect for their superior.
"Don't just look around lad! Follow me."
"Okay." He followed Ogre upstairs, after they arrived at the upper floor they were greeted by a young woman with auburn hair and amber eyes, she wore her hair in a long ponytail that almost reached the ground. She was also wearing a military uniform.
Seeing this young woman, Kyle instantly recognized her as Seryu Ubiquitous, this girl got a twisted sense of justice.
"Captain! Welcome back! Is this the recruit? Hello, nice to meet you! Let's fight evil using justice!"
'Gosh, if I didn't know about you. I might as well believe that you're a girl with a good sense of justice, but personally your evildoer than a person who serves justice.' He thought.
He replied as naturally as he could, he smiled. "Of course, let's fight evil with justice!"
Hearing that from him, Seryu's impression of him improved once more, at this moment she thought of Kyle as a long-lost friend.
Seeing that both of them get along, Ogre was more satisfied with Kyle, he finally said. "It's good that both of you are getting along because starting from today the two of you are partners!"
"Really? Yay! I thought I would be alone forever! Finally, I have found my partner!" Seryu looked excitedly at him.
While Kyle's face started to twitch, honestly he doesn't want to team up with this girl, first of all, she's crazy and the rest of his reasons are the same she's just crazy.
But he didn't do anything to stop it anyway, he would try to judge her as a person, and not as an anime character from his previous, she might be different or something, anyway he'll try to get inside the castle using his identity as Imperial police so that he could meet Esdeath again.
However, he didn't know that Esdeath was already looking for him.

Esdeath was currently walking, no it's considered as walking anymore she was running.
A moment ago, an Imperial guard suddenly claimed that he had seen Kyle, saying that he even signed up as Imperial police!
Of course, she didn't believe it at first, so she threatened the poor imperial guard, saying that if he lied, he would suffer a fate that is worse than death!
Even so, after threatening the poor imperial guard, he still repeated that he saw her beloved, this time her cold heart started to beat as fast as it could.
After that she left her room, and immediately rushed toward the HQ of the Imperial police, according to the poor Imperial guard, her beloved followed the captain of the Imperial police unit, so it was already obvious where to find him if he was here at the capital.
Finally, she arrived at Imperial police HQ, she didn't enter in a normal way, she blasted the HQ door using her ability to create ice.
"Kyle! Please show yourself if you are here!" Esdeath said in a desperate tone.
( End- )
Sorry for the cliff, I can't write more than this because I feel like I could collapse at any moment due to sleepiness.
