Episode 235: Let’s Prepare For War! (4)

“Graaaah!”

Noon.

Even though the enemy fought knowing our presence, the dark elves couldn’t do anything and fell into chaos.

Thud!

Thud!

As a result of blindly charging into the formation, their bodies were pierced and they fell. Some of them who rolled their heads moved to the side of the formation, but each time I sent the kobold reserve armed with spears to quickly suppress them.

“They could have survived if they had fled.”

It’s the same situation as when we ambushed the humans at night. Barbaric tribes that didn’t use tactics couldn’t be my match.

Honestly, I came here with the thought of doing military training before fighting the human army again, but this wasn’t helpful at all.

Well, still, there’s the achievement of placing the hobgoblins and lizardmen in the front lines. More importantly, just having some experience in battle was helpful.

“Keeraaaah!”

“Aaaah!”

The formation had already been broken.

My monster legion was shouting as they hunted down the fleeing dark elves. I told them to kill the men and capture the women, but who knew how much that would be followed.

If they survived, I’d take them as my subordinates. If not, there’s nothing I could do. Capturing prisoners alive in the midst of battle was not an easy task.

“An overwhelming victory.”

Reika, standing next to me, said.

“Yes. Those barbarians can’t be our match at our level. If it were a civilized army, it might be different.”

“Yeah. But if we conquer the barony.”

“Yes?”

“Where will we live?”

“Hmm… We’ll have to think about that then.”

The dungeon was my main base.

The kobolds had dug so hard that they’ve pierced several floors upwards, and the surrounding tunnels were enormous.

If we used these tunnels and the dungeon well, we could block anything that invaded. But if I conquered the barony? Should I abandon the dungeon and move the base there?

Or should I station some of my soldiers in the dungeon and leave it as a last stronghold?

There were many things to consider.

First, I must place the saintess in the barony. Only with the saintess could I control the barony. But that lecherous and lascivious woman probably wouldn’t want to be separated from me.

To achieve my goal, I’d naturally have to station in the barony… Sigh.

“I have many concerns. As always, thinking about leaving a home I’ve grown fond of is painful. I’ve really grown attached to it.”

“You little brat, you can think like that. But moving to the barony is better than staying in the dungeon. It has a blacksmith’s shop, right?”

“That’s true.”

I had to move.

Should I turn the baron’s castle into a dungeon-like fortress?

A kind of demon king’s castle.

Yes. The demon king was originally like that. The ruler of the dungeon became the master of the castle.

“Master. Are we moving?”

“We might have to.”

“Shasha. Sharan loves the dungeon. Master.”

Sharan said in a slightly depressed voice. Seeing that, my heart felt like it was tearing apart.

“I… I love the dungeon too, Sharan. Sigh.”

“Master… are you sad?”

“Thinking about moving makes my heart ache.”

“Shasha… Master, don’t be sad. Sharan will cheer you up.”

“Haha, okay.”

Watching my subordinates sweeping the battlefield, I buried my nose in Sharan’s cleavage.

“…Hey.”

“Yes.”

“Come here too, will you?”

Oh.

Victory in battle.

The dark elf warriors were annihilated. Their clothes, weapons, and belongings are all ours.

“Kerrrr! Weapons! More weapons!”

“Weapons are good! Kerrk!”

“Booty! Booty Kerrung!”

My subordinates screamed in joy at the massive amount of supplies. Anyway, total annihilation. But some prisoners remained. Female dark elf warriors. They were captured well as per the demon king’s orders.

“Kuh…!”

“Damn it!”

I liked their aggressive eyes.

Anyway, these dark elves would become my subordinates. But first, I needed to extract some information from them and train them.

With this, the dark elf unit exceeded the size of a platoon, which was perfect. I was planning to create a large trap zone before the humans invaded. They’d be a big help.

“Nekri. Can you manage these dark elves well?”

“Of course.”

Nekri nodded.

“Since we’ll be living together now, it’s better to let them adapt quickly.”

“That’s wise. You can be a bit strict, but make sure they become part of our dungeon. Oh, and you can teach the new recruits to share the burden if your work is too hard. Let them help you.”

It was a situation where the workforce had increased.

“Ah…!”

Nekri was greatly pleased. After all, Nekri was also a soldier of the demon king’s castle. Reducing the workload was naturally delightful.

“Got it! I’ll manage them well!”

“But before that. Vanessa? And Saintess?”

“Ah, you want to interrogate them.”

“Shall we gather information?”

“Right on point? Ruby. Sort out the information we extract from the dark elves with those two.”

“Yes. I’ll do that.”

It’s a group of warriors of this scale. They must have a lot of information. At the very least, we should be able to find out the kingdom’s location, size, and purpose.

“Alright, then! Today, we have won again! Long live the invincible Demon King Kyuse’s army!”

After giving the orders, I gathered my subordinates and praised them.

“Long live! Gyusasat!”

“Kerrr!”

“We won again!”

“Krrrk!”

What adorable creatures.

“First, start cleaning up the battlefield! Then, we’ll move the spoils to the dungeon! After that, you’ll get some rest, so let’s finish everything energetically from now on!”

“Kerrr!”

Our tasks were always the same.

By the way, more than ten new dark elf female recruits. Though training them was forbidden, enjoying them was allowed. Well then, let’s see how these new women tasted.

But first, let’s finish the cleanup.

If I absorbed the magic from more than ten women… Yes, it’s possible.

“Magic Tentacles.”

It would definitely be possible.

After returning, I finished organizing and summoned the officers. While soldiers rest after battle, officers have plenty of work to do.

“This battle was another overwhelming victory for us. No deaths. Only a few injuries, which our nuns promptly treated and will soon recover from. We gained a lot without any losses. Applause.”

Clap clap clap!

Clap clap clap!

Clap clap clap!

The officers immediately clapped.

“Everyone did a great job. Anyway, let’s start the post-battle meeting. First… we captured more than ten dark elves. Nekri, please say a few words about that.”

“Ah, yes.”

Nekri stood up.

“Well… the Demon King mentioned setting up traps in preparation for the humans’ invasion, right?”

“That’s correct.”

“With the increased number of dark elves, it will be easier to do so.”

“That’s good. Exactly. Now that we don’t have to worry about the dark elves betraying us, we can prepare to face the humans properly.”

They lost so many warriors.

Our rear was secure.

“We’ll check all the routes the enemies might take and set up traps. Serinu?”

“Yes!”

“You know the terrain around here well, right?”

“Of course!”

“But this time, double-check and pinpoint the paths the humans might take.”

“Leave it to me!”

We needed to scout the terrain thoroughly and set up traps with the dark elves. Now that the enemy knew about us, there’s no need to hide our monster army.

Let’s set up traps.

“Ruby, calculate the amount of food needed for the operation and estimate the number of supply units required.”

“Yes, I will.”

There’s more to do.

“In addition to that, we’ll also be doing terrain scouting and tunnel mobility training, which will be exhausting. But we have no choice. We need to prepare thoroughly to capture the enemy. Let’s prepare rigorously.”

After saying that,

“Ho… You’re really running the army seriously, aren’t you? Did you receive military training in the demon realm?”

The Saintess remarked in awe.

“Well, something like that.”

“This battle and everything else are truly surprising. Right, Lea?”

“…It’s difficult to answer.”

“You’re very shy.”

Anyway.

“Oh, but we have captured all the dark elves now, right?”

“Sister Irene?”

“Then can we expand the cultivated land?”

“Ah, I forgot about that. Yes, we should.”

The meeting continued, and we set our policies. After the soldiers’ rest period, we’d start preparing for battle in earnest.

In the meantime, Karuti would come to provide information.

So, before we put the captured dark elves to work, I intended to impregnate them and fill their wombs with loyalty named ‘White Stuff.’

“Uh, hmm?”

Among the captured female dark elf warriors,

Some were married women.

“What, married women?”

I wanted a harem of dark elf female warriors consisting only of virgins, but married women?

This is problematic!
