<p>Where does this figure come from? From the <a href="https://akamegakill.fandom.com/wiki/Northern_Tribes" rel="nofollow noreferrer">wiki</a> of Northern tribes, it states she buries 400,000 northerners at once and then breaks and kills their hero, Numa Seika.</p>
<p>In the manga, I see her kill the hero in Ch. 7 and in Ch. 10 we see Esdeath's 3 henchmen throw tribesmen into a pit to be buried alive. It doesn't directly state northern tribesmen but even if they were northerners, where does this 400,000 number arrive from?</p>
