NovelEnglishChapter 82.1
Graduation Event Two Villainess
Time rewinds a bit.
Nicholas, Lilia and Flare’s followers, and volunteers from the Merchants’ and Mages’ Guilds have almost neutralized the forces of the Caenista kingdom.
The local nobles were almost completely subdued. As expected, they did not trust the Demon Lord or my name, so they used Flare’s name without my permission.
Also, I was able to win over a senior nobleman in the Royal Capital via the Mages’ Guild. He was passionate about the quest for magic and agreed to work behind the scenes as I provided him with the magic letters I had researched.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI heard that the area around the Royal Capital was in a state of hyperinflation, and it was starting to become a lawless zone where people were raiding the farms and warehouses of aristocrats and wealthy merchants. It was a terrible situation.
Despite such a situation, the nobles continued to hold tea ceremonies and evening parties day after day.
It would seem that some nobles were trying to gather information because of the unrest, but information on this matter had not been released to the general nobility, and most of them still did not have a sense of urgency.
I thought that the castle might be on alert, but the Royal Family was the same as it had been, and they had merchants deliver food directly, so the people inside might not be feeling much sense of danger.
Because of this state of affairs, Lilia’s friends reported to me that the graduation party at the magic academy and Flare’s execution would be held as planned.
As entertainment for the party, they would hold a public execution in the school’s garden, gathering the public as well. Even though I was aware that around the Middle Ages, executions were also a form of entertainment, it was rather atrocious.
“Demon Lord-sama! We are ready to go into battle!”
“Nn.”
In the occupied Arceides territory, 200 elite men from the Daemon Kingdom, 50 from the city of the Daemon Race. Fifty knights from the former Arceides lined up in a row.
It may seem small for a National Offensive, but Arceides selected those with high loyalty, mainly low-ranking knights, and the elites from the Demon Nation were, from my point of view, equivalent to level 30, so they were all fierce fighters who could fight a Minotaur single-handedly on equal terms.
Boris was in the Daemon Kingdom unit. The warriors and human knights of the daemon city were commanded by Bert-san, so there should be no problem with their leadership.
If there was a problem, it would be the fact that I would be taking only those with high loyalty, so there might be people who were still dissatisfied and would try to do something in Arceides, but that would not be a problem because that would allow me to flush out the dissenters and I alone would be able to take it back immediately.

This time, since it would be a blitzkrieg, almost a surprise attack, the knights would ride on carefully selected horses, and the warriors of the Daemon Kingdom would ride on 30 Hippogriffs and 200 hellhounds.
The people from daemon city, including Bert-san, will be riding on…
[Gururu…]
[Gaaaah]
Three griffons. One five-necked giant hydra. Four Sleipnirs. One three-headed Cerberus. One manticore. Five Cyclops. Two Chimeras.
All of these creatures who were estimated to be between 60–80 years old would be giving them a ride.
…They didn’t need to join, but I guess they wanted to be there.
