Demon's Evolution A Calm Interrogation
With the current size of our troops, I was already confident that even if the full force of the Merlocks' army arrived with all their preparations, the outcome of the encounter would be uncertain. It would be a battle where victory or defeat hung in the balance.A smile graced my lips naturally. This battle had not only bolstered the defences of Ice Demon City but had also paved a solid path for its future prosperity.Of course, it was thanks to the system that this transformation had occurred. However, if my army hadn't risen to the occasion and defeated the enemy, the mission wouldn't have been accomplished. Their bravery and determination were just as crucial to our success as the assistance from the system.Moreover, it was a fortuitous discovery, an unforeseen side mission hidden within the fabric of our reality. Without accomplishing it, I wouldn't have even been aware of its existence.With 200 cavalry knights, 100 arcane archers, 100 regular archers, 300 infantry knights, and

The impact of Roland's strike reverberated through the air, sending shockwaves across the battlefield. The beastmen captain's roar of agony echoed amidst the silence that followed, his body skidding several meters away as he struggled to regain his footing.Witnessing the scene, the remaining beastmen froze in disbelief, their rage momentarily overshadowed by a newfound respect. They had underestimated the power of this human adversary, but now, they couldn't deny his formidable strength.As the dust settled, Roland stood tall, his expression unwavering. The beastmen, though still defiant, couldn't shake the feeling of apprehension creeping into their hearts. They realized that facing the forces of Ice Demon City would be no easy task, especially with warriors like Roland standing in their way.Roland approached the fallen beastmen captain and lifted him, tossing him back among his companions. The captain landed with a painful thud, groaning in agony before his fellow beastmen."Now,

However, one piece of information in the report caught my attention and elicited a chuckle. "The Merlock army consists solely of infantry?" I couldn't help but find it amusing."The Merlocks have always looked down on humans," I mused aloud, contemplating the surprising revelation."But why would they make such a mistake?" I continued, directing the question to Wise."Do they think that our army is the same as theirs? That we would simply send out knights to fight them in the fields where they have an advantage?" I speculated, seeking to understand the Merlocks' flawed strategy.Wise nodded in agreement, confirming my suspicions. "That's indeed the case," he concurred."Are you sure the beastmen that we captured are telling the truth?" I questioned, not because I doubted Wise's reports, but because I harboured scepticism toward the information provided by the beastmen."It should be true," Wise replied, his tone confident. "When I heard the information from the captives, I also had a

"Well, I suppose that's good news for me?" I chuckled, amused by Richard's enthusiasm."Of course," Richard nodded eagerly, rubbing his chubby hands together in anticipation of seeing the beastmen."The slaves you sold us are quite popular, Baron Ethan," Richard remarked, his tone appreciative as he retrieved a letter from his pocket and placed it respectfully on the table before me."Baron Ethan, this letter contains signatures from various other noble lords who wished to express their gratitude towards you," he explained, gesturing towards the missive.The maid waiting nearby promptly approached and handed the letter to me with a bow.As I opened the envelope, I couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity. The letter was written in the intricate language of nobles, a dialect reserved for their exclusive use. It was a reminder of the distinct social hierarchy that governed our world.This was the first time I had received a missive in this language, and its arrival piqued my interest

Morven trudged on, his weary footsteps echoing softly amidst the towering trees that seemed to stretch endlessly into the distance. Each step felt like a burden as he pressed forward, his head throbbing with the strain of the journey. The once lush foliage now appeared desolate and parched, its vitality drained away by some unseen force.His skin prickled with discomfort, the dryness of the air sapping away any trace of moisture. It was as if the very essence of life had been sucked out of the environment, leaving behind a barren wasteland that offered little solace or respite.The weight of his backpack bore down heavily upon his shoulders, the clinking of armor and the weight of weapons serving as a constant reminder of the impending conflict that lay ahead. Each piece of gear felt like a burden, adding to the physical and mental strain that Morven already endured.But amidst the physical exhaustion and the oppressive atmosphere, it was the gnawing hunger and the gnawing thirst tha

"DO not fear!" Morven's roar echoed across the battlefield, his long tongue flailing to the side as he sprinted at full speed.The several kilometers between them and the city seemed to shrink to nothingness as they closed the gap with astonishing speed.The two hundred Merlocks closely followed Morven's lead, gripping their curved blades tightly. With each step, their determination grew stronger.As they approached the city gate, they knew that their finely crafted blades, made of premium and rare metals, would be their key to breaking through the iron defences of the humans through collective effort.Morven and his squadron closed in on the city gate, each step felt like a heartbeat, quickening as they neared their target. Four hundred meters became three hundred, then two, and just one hundred meters remained between them and the imposing iron barrier.Their advance had been swift, almost uninterrupted. The obstacles strewn across the battlefield—traps, pitfalls, and barricades—pro

Wise chuckled lightly. "Archers, don't waste arrows. Get into shooting positions and shoot only when instructed!" The archers replied in a single sentence: "Understood." "Hold your fire," Wise commanded, his voice cutting through the tense silence. "Let them come close. We don't want to waste a single arrow." A grim satisfaction flickered across his face. "Our first volley will be a hammer blow. It'll cripple their morale and thin their ranks." I offered a curt nod, acknowledging the brilliance of the strategy. Yet, a sliver of unease gnawed at me. What if the arrow storm faltered? What if enough Merlocks survived to reach the walls? The consequences of a breached wall were too grim to contemplate. With a nod, Wise acknowledged the trust placed in him. "Understood, my lord. We'll maintain our defenses and be prepared for whatever they throw at us." As they discussed the situation, it became apparent that the Merlocks were probing their defenses rather than launching a full-scale

The probing attack had served its purpose, paving the way for the main assault. From his vantage point atop the wall, Wise observed the advancing Merlock army breaching the city's final line of defense with a solemn expression."Fire!" he commanded, his voice ringing out across the battlefield. "Knights, defend the gate!"With practised precision, the two hundred archers raised their bows, arrows aimed at the oncoming Merlocks. Meanwhile, inside the gate, the waiting knights bore grim yet determined expressions, prepared to repel the impending assault."Send word to Dray," Wise instructed urgently. "Have him lead the cavalry. When the opportunity arises, they are to charge into the fray!"“Roger!”Dray wasted no time upon receiving the orders. Mounting his horse, he drew his axe, eyes fixed on the emergency gate opening before him.A thunderous rumble of hooves filled the air as the cavalry, previously stationed outside the city walls, sprang into action. To the south, Roland and hi

"Hey! Why should we listen to a brat like you?" The interjection came from the back of the crowd, a young soldier, his face flushed with anger, his eyes blazing with defiance. The rest of the soldiers turned to stare, their expressions a mixture of curiosity and apprehension.A genuine smile spread across my face. Finally, someone had the audacity to speak up. A flicker of satisfaction ignited within me. This was exactly what I had been hoping for, wasn't it? Didn't this feel like the natural order of things?I had anticipated this moment from the very beginning. There was no way these esteemed scions of nobility and battle-hardened knights would meekly submit to the commands of a mere child. The moment I was elected commander of one of the three mighty armies, I knew this tension would inevitably arise. After all, who among these talented warriors would willingly follow a teenager with little to boast of in terms of accomplishments? And let's not forget the shadow of my less-than-st
Demon's Evolution Doubt In the Commander
Ladia couldn't help but castigate herself for her lapse in judgment. How had she not seen it before? If the involvement of the magic towers would significantly aid the Empire, then the impact of the very person who had defeated the magicians of the tower participating would be monumental.The princess's heart thrummed with the realization, chiding herself for taking so long to come to this epiphany. Was Ethan's proposal the correct course of action or not? She no longer dwelled on the question.With a steely gaze, Ladia announced, "I have reached a verdict."The room fell silent as all eyes turned to the princess. The final decision lay in her hands, and she was ready to reveal it. The anticipation hung heavy in the air, and Ladia took a deep breath before continuing. "I have decided to accept Ethan's proposal."A murmur of surprise rippled through the room, but Ladia held up her hand for silence. "I believe that Ethan's plan, with a few modifications, is the best course of action for
Demon's Evolution Foresight
My suggestion ignited a firestorm of debate among the upper echelons of the capital. The princess convened her officials in the grand throne room, where the air was thick with tension and uncertainty as they deliberated their next course of action. Ultimately, the march toward the City of Aran was postponed by a full day, a delay that weighed heavily on everyone present. The officials found themselves divided, caught between two stark choices: should they attempt to reclaim the nearby City of Aran from the Beast Kingdom, or should they focus their efforts on retaking the more strategically significant City of Northfall?"But, Your Majesty," one of the officials interjected, his voice rising above the murmurs of the assembly, "as we stand now, we cannot afford to risk an attack on the Northfall Fortress! I have heard reports that the beastmen have fortified their walls and laid even more traps to ensnare us! If we allow this farce to continue, we will be nothing more than lambs led to
Demon's Evolution Indecisive
A chill snaked down Ryle's spine. Ethan's suggestion hung in the air, heavy and suffocating, like a shroud woven from despair. To attack City of Aran, a fortress city now bristling with tens of thousands of Beast Kingdom soldiers, felt like a declaration of utter annihilation. Even Lance, their most valiant commander, had fallen captive within its walls.Ryle's brow creased into a deep furrow. He, too, was a commander of the Initiation Army, a man who had tasted the bitterness of defeat and the sting of loss. He couldn't fathom how Ethan, this newly appointed leader, could so blithely propose a course of action that reeked of self-destruction."I cannot, in good conscience, agree with your plan," Ryle stated, his voice laced with a mixture of disbelief and frustration. "As we stand now, attacking Northfall City is a fool's errand, a suicide mission. We are scattered, depleted, and outmatched. We must first rally our remaining forces, regroup along the borders, and then, and only then,
Demon's Evolution Yet Another Bold Plan
"Ryle Green, step forward!" the Royal advisor said, seeing Ryle was in a daze.Ryle coughed and stepped forward, his heart pounding with excitement as he knelt before the Princess."Ryle Green, you are hereby granted authority over fifty thousand soldiers," the Princess said, her voice like a melody that soothed the soul. "You shall be the commander of the Vanguard Army!"With a snap of her fingers, the Princess bestowed an insignia upon Ryle's shoulder, its glow of light like a beacon of hope in the face of the looming threat of the Beast Kingdom."I will crush those beastmen for you, Your Highness!" Ryle said, his voice filled with determination and resolve.The Princess smiled, her eyes filled with pride and hope. "We have faith in you, Ryle," she said. "Together, we will defeat the Beast Kingdom and restore peace to our lands."Princess Ladia nodded, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. "I expect a lot from the younger generation, Ryle," she said, her voice laced with both encou
Demon's Evolution The Chosen Commanders
The Dwarven Kingdom, a land renowned for its glittering wealth, held its breath. The Brightwing Empire’s meager offer, a desperate plea for aid, was all they had to entice the notoriously hard-drinking mercenaries. Even if their weapons were outdated, their reputation for unmatched effectiveness in battle preceded them. Surely, that would be enough.“Your Majesty,” a guard murmured, his voice barely a tremor in the air. “They have arrived.”Princess Ladia, lost in a labyrinth of thought, startled slightly. She had wrestled with the decision for what felt like an eternity, but finally, a solution had emerged. All that remained was to face them, to meet their gaze and offer her hand in this desperate alliance.Viscount Lamiel, a man whose arrogance was only surpassed by his thirst for gold, strode into the royal garden, flanked by a legion of equally boisterous mercenaries. Princess Ladia recognized most of them – the nobles summoned by the crown, their faces etched with a mixture of g
Demon's Evolution Who will be the Commanders?
The scene unfolded with brutal efficiency. Several soldiers, their faces grim and resolute, descended upon Drew and the other soldier, their movements swift and decisive. There was no struggle, no desperate pleas for mercy. They walked away with heads bowed, accepting their fate with a stoic silence that spoke volumes of their resignation.Ryle, his expression a mixture of weariness and amusement, ran a hand through his hair, a sigh escaping his lips. "What a waste of a perfectly good sleep," he muttered, his voice laced with a hint of exasperation. "Young men like myself need our rest, yet everyone seems determined to disrupt my slumber over such trivial matters."His gaze shifted to me, and a playful smile curved his lips. "Allow me to introduce myself," he said, extending a hand towards me. "Ryle Green, third son of Count Green, and as you might be able to tell, the future commander of this very army." He spoke with an air of unwavering confidence, his words carrying the weight of
Demon's Evolution Green Family
Two soldiers from a rival camp, their boots crunching on the gravel path, happened upon the conversation. One soldier, his face contorting with barely suppressed mirth, clamped a hand over his mouth, desperately trying to stifle a chuckle. His companion, sensing the impending eruption, jabbed him in the ribs with an elbow, a silent plea for decorum. But the laughter, like a trapped spring, was too powerful to contain. Tears welled in the soldier's eyes, threatening to spill over as his shoulders shook with silent mirth. Finally, with a strangled cry, he burst into a full-blown guffaw. "Hahahaha! If it's the Young Master leading us! Hahaha! We'll be able to… Pft! Hahaha!"The sound of his uncontrolled laughter echoed through the camp, drawing curious glances from nearby soldiers. Gaston, his face a mask of confusion and irritation, turned to the source of the amusement. "Excuse me, but what's so funny?" he demanded, his voice laced with displeasure.The soldier, still gasping for br
Demon's Evolution Flies
The unyielding army of the Ice Demon City had been journeying for a considerable number of weeks, traversing a multitude of cities and towns along the way. During our sojourns, we would occasionally restock our supplies, find respite in taverns, and often in the great outdoors, before resuming our arduous trek.Given the unfortunate circumstances, we were informed that the Ice Demon City was the most distant of all cities from the capital. This reality meant that we were among the last to receive the urgent message, compelling us to join the ranks of the other nobles and their armies in the capital.It was in the fourth week of our relentless march that we finally arrived in the grand and magnificent Capital city. The journey had been long and arduous, but our determination never wavered, as we knew our presence was required in these critical times. I had already surmised that the majority of the other nobles and their forces would have already amassed in the capital, readying themse
