Episode 233: Let’s Prepare For War! (2)

In times of peace, it’s okay to live with a relaxed mind, but when war broke out, you must change your mindset completely. Dare to enter the territory of this Demon King? Unforgivable.

“Prepare for battle stations! Prepare for battle stations, Kereuk!”

Immediately, I gathered the soldiers and prepared for battle stations while sending out the pixies for reconnaissance.

“Lady Juria. What do you think?”

“Judging by their marching position… they seem to be heading for the farmland.”

“Indeed. They probably know the location too. Let’s deploy immediately.”

If the farmland was targeted, we must move as quickly as possible.

To be honest, the hobgoblins and lizardmen were not elite soldiers. They’re just dull farmhands.

They wouldn’t hold out for long, and their morale was low without us.

Their role was simply to hold the line and preserve their strength until we arrived. We must get there as quickly as possible. Even though they had been trained, without us, the reliable big brothers, they wouldn’t be able to hold the front lines.

“But, Master.”

“Yes, Buril.”

“If we deploy and the dark elves attack the dungeon instead, won’t we be in trouble? Kereuk.”

“Don’t worry about that. We don’t know where those dark elves are from, but they don’t know the location of our dungeon. They won’t drag their army blindly to an unknown place.”

This area was our domain. The imps, lamias, and pixies always scouted and played around, but no dark elves had ever been spotted nearby.

Therefore, they didn’t know the location of our dungeon.

It’s natural for them to have discovered the farmland due to its location, but this place was relatively safe.

“Nekri! Nekri, come here!”

“…Yes.”

Nekri came running immediately.

“We might have to fight dark elves. Can you handle that?”

“If we have to fight, we can. Dark elves aren’t a united group. Sometimes we even fight against dark elves from other tribes. But if they’re from the same…”

“Same kingdom? Is that what you’re worried about?”

“…”

Nekri nodded slightly, pleading with me for mercy.

“Alright. As the Demon King, I’ll consider your opinion.”

“Ah…! Thank you!”

When I generously acknowledged her, Nekri was greatly pleased and thanked me. Well, it’s something I couldn’t help for now. Showing this level of leniency helped earn the loyalty of my subordinates.

“Still, Nekri, can you fight well against humans?”

“Of course!”

“Alright. Then, we’ll assign the rear guard duty to the dark elves. You won’t have to engage directly, but you must fight if the enemy comes. If you don’t want to die, that is.”

“I can do that much. I’ll do my best.”

“Good.”

I assigned tasks to the officers in this manner.

“Gyuil! Have you loaded all the supplies?”

“Yes, everything’s loaded, Gyusat.”

“Good!”

With that, my soldiers, who had completed the battle preparations, gathered in the training grounds.

“All troops! Are you ready for battle?”

“Kereuuuk!”

“Keruruk!”

“The dark elf warriors have gathered! They’re clearly targeting our farmland! We must not let them take our food! The undefeated Demon King’s army! Let’s show them our might!”

“Kereuuuuk!”

Thanks to the repeated training and real combat experiences, we were perfectly prepared for deployment despite Juria bringing in the information only recently. Morale was also at its peak.

“Then let’s march out!!!”

Let’s show them our power!

“Shwaaaaak! Shwaaaaak! Have you arrived?”

“Grarak! We’re saved! Saved! Grak!”

Upon arriving at the farmland, Juragi and the hobgoblins welcomed us with tears. They were completely terrified, using the outpost and barracks as makeshift barricades.

Although holding shields, they were still in a state of fear.

“Don’t worry now that I’m here! We will surely win!”

“Shwaaak…! Master!”

“Grararak!”

Anyway, my arrival dispelled the status effect: Fear. As expected, the farmhands were just farmhands. They had the courage to ambush or smash fleeing enemies but were not suited for frontal battles.

“Master! Over there, those are dark elf warriors!”

“Yes, I see them.”

Beyond the farmland.

The dark elves stood in a line, staring in this direction. They seemed to have paused, knowing we were prepared. They must also be aware that reinforcements have arrived.

“I’m not sure if negotiations will work. Buril! Have the goblins take the front! Juragi! Hobgoblins! Move to the flanks of the goblin unit!”

“Kereuk! Understood!”

Giving orders, I climbed onto the outpost.

“Hmm.”

The dark elves stood in a row.

Their outfits were light, and their armaments varied between spears and swords, along with shields, but they lacked a proper combat formation. At best, they were a bunch of barbarians with iron weapons.

We came well-prepared for battle, but we wouldn’t be pushed back even in a frontal clash.

But it’s a mixed group of male and female warriors? I’d like to take the women as spoils, but fighting together would inevitably lead to losses.

That’s unfortunate.

Having confirmed what needed to be confirmed, I climbed down from the outpost.

“Serinu.”

“Yes!”

“Take the children and scout around to see if there are any other units. Try not to get too close since they might shoot arrows.”

“You want me to scout cautiously? Got it!”

And I gave orders to Juria.

“Lady Juria. When the pixies bring back the reconnaissance information, prepare to bypass the enemy and flank them. Position yourself as usual and wait for my command to charge.”

“Understood, Master.”

Placing a hand on her chest and bowing, Juria flicked her tongue like a snake as she answered.

Now… Reika spoke, ready to give orders to the elite guards.

“Kya. Look at this bastard.”

“Yes?”

“Look at this bastard drooling all over. Hey. You see those sexy and busty dark elf women, and you want to screw them again?”

“No, Lady Reika?”

“Anyway. If you capture them and waste time trying to train them again…”

“No, Lady Reika. I understand your point, but to say not to train them at all…”

“Oh, what? What? So, you want to train them?”

We must do it anyway.

“Understood, Lady Reika. Training… alright. I’ll only train the higher-ranking women. I’ll just do that, so please don’t say anything more.”

“Higher-ranking?”

“You know, the women with high status. For the subordinate-level women, I’ll just screw them once, but for the commander-level women, we need to train them slowly to fully dominate them.”

“You really like women with high status, huh.”

That’s right.

There was nothing more enjoyable than violating a high-ranking and beautiful woman.

“Hohoho, to show such favoritism. I am very pleased.”

“Of course, Saintess.”

“Well, if it’s just that much, I can’t say no. But you know what will happen if you spend too much time training.”

“Yes.”

Good.

“Well, saying you’ll train less. That’s good news. By the way, about the incendiary attack I mentioned last time.”

“Oh. Do you mean testing it here before using it on the humans?”

“We need to test it once to be able to use it later.”

“Hmm… This is close to the farmland, so it’s a bit dangerous…”

Vanessa’s idea about the incendiary attack was this:

In the enemy’s position, drying out the plants in that area in an instant. Once Sharan finished that work, the imps would throw fireballs, turning the dried area into a fiery hell.

It’s a good plan.

But the problem was, this was farmland.

I couldn’t tolerate burning our precious food.

“Master. Don’t worry about that. There’s a water tank here, right?”

At that moment, Lumica spoke softly while pointing to her large breasts.

“Water tank…!”

No, milk tank!

“Even if a fire breaks out, my abilities can easily put it out. So, why not give it a try?”

“Then! Sharan! Shall we try it?”

“Sha! Master! Sharan will do her best!”

“Ooooh!”

Everyone was so motivated.

“Haa… Burning enemies to death has become so natural now. Oh Goddess. It would be better if there were no wars…”

As Irene sighed, Liza and Ruby, standing beside her, patted her back to comfort her. It couldn’t be helped. Wars would never disappear from this world.

Unless some absolute god suddenly descended and declared to kill all warmongers, intelligent beings like us would continue to wage wars forever.

But there’s no such god. A god who would stop wars by killing everyone? That’s absurd.

“That’s right. It would be better if there were no wars. As expected of Lady Irene. Compared to Lady Reika, you have such a kind heart.”

“What did you say?”

I immediately patted Irene’s head.

“It’s just weird to hear such words from a shameless person like you! Demon King who turns women’s holes into rags!”

“Hehehe, yes, yes.”

Anyway.

The formation was complete, and the troops were perfectly positioned. We could move as soon as the pixies brought the reconnaissance report.

Just then.

“Master! Master! Keruuuuk!”

A voice called me from the goblin formation. Vanessa, who was nearby, heard something from Buril and came running to me.

“Lady Vanessa? What’s the matter?”

“Let’s climb the outpost first.”

“Alright. Please go up first.”

“You… you’re trying to look at my butt from below again!”

“If you know, hurry up.”

“Tsk!”

Vanessa climbed the ladder to the outpost. I followed her, watching her swaying buttocks. Such an attractive view from above.

Anyway.

Once we reached the top, I could see the situation.

“Oh. Is that brave one a messenger?”

A dark elf was approaching us.

“Looks like it. They must have felt the need for a conversation seeing our troops.”

“Hmm.”

“They might want to negotiate, but what do you think?”

“Negotiation is always proposed by the advantageous side first.”

We didn’t have to negotiate since we’re confident we wouldn’t lose the fight. But we could listen to their terms. Depending on the situation, if they met our demands, we might not need to fight.

“Hehehe.”

“Haa… They’re probably thinking of surrendering all the women to save themselves.”

“I don’t need all of them. I prefer virgins.”

“You, you scoundrel! What are you talking about?”
