Episode 257: Conquering The Barony (13)

“Infiltrate! Infiltrate! Infiltrate!”

“Infiltrate Kereuk!”

“Kereuk Kereuk!”

—Tudududu!

Following my command, the goblins quickly navigated the Viet Cong tunnels. Good. It’s a narrow path, but my goblins were maneuvering very skillfully, even while armed.

Of course, they were not armed with spears. The goblins were now equipped with looted shields and swords. They’re also wearing slightly modified armor and helmets.

They were fully armed.

“Kereuk, Kereuk. It’s like a walk in the park.”

“Cackling. Sympathy, sympathy.”

“It’s not too hard, Kereuk.”

Indeed, their stamina had significantly increased since becoming demonized.

“But man, I’m really struggling.”

The tunnel was rather small, and I was having a harder time than the goblins because I had to bend my back to move through it.

“Kreuk, Kreuk. Our lord mustn’t struggle. Kreuk Kreuk.”

“Hehe, what does this kid see me as? Am I going to collapse?”

“Of course not, Kreuk!”

I couldn’t show a collapsing figure.

Anyway.

“It’s so uncomfortable because of my chest…!”

“It feels like my breasts will get squeezed!”

“It’s tough here!”

The pixies were also maneuvering among the goblins. This baronial infiltration operation required the goblins and pixies to move as one organic unit.

Let’s just do it.

“My lord. There’s the exit.”

Finally, the exit.

“Good. Everyone, stop. Maintain complete silence.”

“Silence Kereuk.”

The silence command was relayed in sequence. Now, the real infiltration training began.

“Alright, everyone. This is the entrance to the human sewers. We’ve secretly infiltrated up to here. And what do we do now that we’ve infiltrated? We attack. Just quickly move to the surface and subdue the nearby forces. It’s our first time, so let’s just do it.”

I imagined in my mind. This place was currently a sewer, and there was a vertical passage above. There’s a ladder embedded in the passage wall, so I didn’t need to bring one separately.

“Then, goblins with helmets and shields. Forward.”

This role was assigned to Goblin Squad One.

“You all quickly climb up and form a circular formation around the entrance. Got it?”

“Kereuk! Understood!”

“Then… go!”

“Kereuk!”

—Click, click, click!

The goblins begin to climb up the passage on my command. Of course, this wasn’t a baronial castle but my dungeon’s tunnel. Let’s not worry about the missing ladder detail.

Anyway, watching the goblins crouch down and crawl up to the surface… Just then!

“Serinu! All pixies, fly up! Keep rising and locate the guards’ positions and immediately slaughter them!”

“Got it! Let’s go!”

“Yep!”

—Vroom!

As the pixies flapped their wings, the tunnel filled with dust!

“Kereuk! Kereuk!”

Above the coughing goblins, the pixies flew up. If this were a real battle, the pixies would vertically ascend past the goblins climbing the ladder.

“Good! Everyone, keep advancing!”

“Kereuk!”

Just like that.

“Phew!”

We had reached the surface.

—Creak.

Goblin Squad One formed a circular formation around the sewer entrance, protecting the following units, while the pixies flew around attacking imaginary watchtowers.

And then.

—Rurururu!

The following units burst out of the tunnel. Watching them, I maneuvered the circular formation to the right position and managed the forces that had surfaced.

“Good! Phase one is complete! Vanessa! Please come out quickly!”

“Hmm. There’s nothing to criticize about coming up to the surface.”

Knight Vanessa emerged from the tunnel.

“Right? It seems perfect up to here, as far as I can tell.”

The strategy involved landing the troops and sending pixies to neutralize the guards.

So far so good.

“But now we’ve only entered the outer castle. The biggest problem with capturing the outer castle is the gate, which we’ve overcome using the sewer, but to capture the baron, we need to enter the inner castle.”

“What should we do, Vanessa? This is your specialty.”

“Sigh.”

Vanessa sighed at my words.

Vanessa was employed by the baron. Naturally, she had entered the baronial castle multiple times and knew where the gates were and what the fortifications were like.

“This is something. I never thought I’d use my experience working in the baronial castle like this. No matter how much I pledged loyalty to you, it’s not pleasant to stab my old employer in the back.”

“I understand. But Vanessa, now we must.”

“Well… if it’s for about 5 sexes…”

“Has sex become a currency now?”

“Quiet! That’s my demand!”

“Yes, yes. Understood. One internal ejaculation counts as one, right?”

“Of course!”

Vanessa responded confidently, and I listened to the explanation.

“Obviously, all doors are closed at night. And there are no windows on the lower floors. Pixies could infiltrate through the windows on the upper floors.”

“Having pixies infiltrate and fight inside the castle is too risky.”

I would never throw them alone into such a dangerous place. These were long-range fighters, not warriors. If they entered a room inside the castle and encountered soldiers in armor, they would be guaranteed dead.

“So eventually, we have to open the inner castle gate from this side… But this is actually a problem. The inner gate can only be opened from the inside.”

“That’s right.”

“Therefore, we need to break the inner gate. If we can just break it, there won’t be any particular problem. The inside isn’t that complicated.”

“Break it?”

“Yes. Lilriel? Come here!”

Vanessa called out commandingly.

“Is it finally my turn?”

Lilriel, standing with her squad members, confidently walked forward.

“Lady Lilriel?”

“I’ve tested it on this side as well. With the firepower we possess, we can definitely break the gate.”

“No, Vanessa? Is that true? I didn’t hear any reports?”

“You can see now. Lilriel, initiate the firepower projection on that wall with the angels.”

“Understood. Everyone, come here.”

“Sigh!”

Lilriel walked confidently, and the angels followed her reluctantly. And then—

“Load the black flame cannon!”

Following Lilriel’s command—

—Whoosh!

—Whoosh!

—Whoosh!

The angels began to concentrate power in their hands! It wasn’t the brilliant radiance of power like before. Because they were demonized by me, it was a darkened power!

They fired.

—Boom!

The moment the black flame cannon hit the cliff—

—Boom!

A large explosion occurred, and the wall burst open.

“No! This is stronger than I thought!”

“Hahaha! This is the power of our fallen angels! Isn’t the destructive power stronger than expected?”

Lilriel, with her arms crossed, shouted proudly.

“Wow! When did they become so powerful?”

“I’ve been contemplating, Demon King. As a fallen angel… I’m slower than pixies. I can’t compete in the air. So I decided to focus on destructive power.”

“Ooh!”

“I can’t match the pixies in speed, but I’m stronger in terms of destructive power!”

“Awesome, Lady Lilriel!!! Who knew you had such a talent!!!”

I couldn’t help but feel proud!

“Ouch!”

I patted Lilriel on the buttocks.

Initially, my plan was to have angels or those of us who can manipulate magic project firepower to break the gate, or have Vanessa and Lea, including the dark elves and imps, infiltrate through the windows to open the main gate.

But the angels suggested an easier solution here.

“Well done, Lilriel! I didn’t know fallen angels were such powerful beings!”

Their flight ability was inferior to that of pixies, and their projectile speed couldn’t compare to pixies, but they possessed a powerful strike!

“Ha, haha! Finally, you recognize my true value!”

“Lady Lilriel is also among the senior ranks. Truly impressive.”

“Then as a reward…”

“Understood. You pretty thing.”

So I praised the angels while continuing the training, trying to synchronize better, and implementing a more refined plan. And so we spent our time.

We would continue this training for the next few days. Tomorrow, Karuti would send an Evil Eye again.

Training and more training, with feedback from Karuti, who knew the structure of the baronial castle in detail.

Finally.

The day of the operation arrived.

“Mighty Kyuse Demon Army… My comrades.”

Looking at my subordinates.

“Today, we will directly invade the land of humans.”

I spoke with great weight.

“Until now, it has been the humans who have invaded. They coveted our land. But no longer! We are now the ones who will attack! We have become the invaders!”

“Growl!”

“Growl!”

“Roar!”

An outburst of shouts!

“We will take the land of humans! Although you all know this, it’s time to say goodbye to our lovely dungeon! To rule the human world, we must leave our beloved home!”

Dungeon!

My lovely dungeon!

Now we must leave this place!

“The land of humans is completely different from the world you know! There’s no grass there!”

“Shaa!”

“There are no overflowing valleys nearby!”

“Gasp!”

“And it’s all full of artificial things! We are now going to infiltrate that place!”

“Growl!”

Although I had already explained all this, I gave the story one last time before departing.

“But! That place will now become our second homeland! Look at the items humans have created! Weapons! Armor! Tools! Those are the homes built by the ones who created such things! Let’s take them all!!!”

With that shout!

—Yell!

—Growl!

—Roar!

All my subordinates burst out in shouts.

“Tools…!”

Especially interested in the items made by humans were the Lamia, Dark Elves, and Pixies. Now we will take all of those.

“Mighty Kyuse Demon Army, advance!!!!”

“Yell! Everyone, march for our lord!!!”
