Okino and his three friends plan to continue their journey to Bougenville Castle. The only large castle inhabited by humans that survived Akame. The castle has a large high wall fortress.
The soldiers were also assigned to guard the gate so that no Akame approached. The four of them had just been there a week ago to replenish their food supplies and weaponry.
But now the lives of the four of them are on the edge of the horn. Their drinking water supply is only about two bottles. And their weapons bullets are also very limited.
The four of them walked through the forest full of trees to meet the Akame people who roamed for food. Kaito leads Ema, Erick, and Vio to return to Bougenville castle and get some rest.
"city ... Okino-sama?... Are we going back to the big castle?" Ask Ema with that flat face.
"Hmm .. yes," Okino nodded and kept his eyes on the surroundings while holding the long-barreled rifle that was in front of his chest.
"Okino .. instead if we go back there we will ..," Vio held back his sentence because he remembered something.
"Hmm .. pasture." Guman Erick with his worried face.
The grasslands are the places most people avoid. Not without reason, the grasslands have absolutely no place to shelter. Hundreds or even thousands of Akame were always there as if a bunch of fish were waiting for their food to come.
A few moments later they arrived at the end of the forest. In front of them were no more trees, but only grasslands inhabited by many starving Akame.
"It's time, isn't it?" Erick said as he leaned his back behind the tree to make it invisible to the Akame.
"Yes ." Okino peeked out from behind the tree and observed the situation while thinking of arranging their next plan.
"Ema ... aren't you afraid?" Tanya Vio hugged Ema tightly.
"As long as there's Okino-sama .. I won't be afraid." Ema answered with her flat face.
"Ema ... You have to be brave even if there is no me," said Okino as he rubbed Ema's head slowly.
The reason Ema calls Okino Okino-sama is because of the age of Okino who has stepped on the number twenty-five years. While the age of Ema has just stepped on the number fifteen years.
Because Ema has great respect for the person she considers as her life saver, she finally calls Okino that name.
Their height is also very far away. Ema's height is only up to Okino's chest. Even so, Ema was very strong, she could defeat some Akame with just a knife.
"Okino .. don't tell me," Erick put on his anxious face for the second time.
Okino does plan to sacrifice himself so that his friend can get to the castle safely.
"Udah .. Now do you see that little house?" Okino pointed towards the small house made of wood.
The house was still standing firmly in the middle of the green meadow that had become Akame's nest.
"Hmm," Vio nodded as he looked at what Okino had pointed at.
"Erick .. I'm asking you to shoot Akame the farthest distance ...," Okino said
"Hmm ...," Erick nodded in understanding.
"Vio .. throw a smoke bomb if Akame is gathered in one place .. and that's when we have to run as fast as possible to get to the house" Okino explained.
"Okay ... understandable!" Vio.
"Hmm ... now get ready in position!"
Okino brandished his rifle forward to stand guard. Ema also held a gun in each hand. Vio clasped the smoke grenade as Okino asked. While Erick aimed at Akame with the most distance as asked by Okino.
"Now!!" Okino.
Duars!!! the swush!!
"Graaarrrhh!!!!"
The bullet that came out of Erick's rifle pierced the arm of an Akame and made him shed a lot of blood. As planned, the other Akame around him came closer to where the blood was falling.
After Vio throws a smoke grenade at the Akame. The four of them rushed to head to the small house in the middle of the meadow.
Bruack!!!
Okino breaks down the locked door and lets her friends in first. Okino entered and closed the door of the house tightly.
"Huh huh huh .. finally." Okino sat down and leaned her back on the front door of the old house.
