The night before Steinbeck Fief’s army set out, Clyde devised his battle plans. First, he wanted to pass through the Leopold Lake area without getting involved in “The Battle of Three Earls” by staying along the edge of their warzone. His target was only Marquis Charles who had occupied the Needham Plains.

If the three earls didn’t care about Steinbeck Fief’s army, then everyone would live in peace with each other. However, if they obstructed him, Clyde could only offer those 150,000 troops as a sacrifice to Heaven first before dealing with the over 120,000 elite troops under Marquis Charles. Clyde’s war units consisted of over 10,000 troops of Steinbeck Fief, the non-included 2,000 troops would serve as temporary members of the guard regiment to maintain Steinbeck Fief’s stability of Steinbeck Fief, and 100,000 demonic creatures under Ancient Demon King Andrisno’s command who were responsible for transporting goods and materials in the rear. In addition, they could also act last-minute stand-ins.

This time, Undead Queen Lafania and her younger sister Cursed Queen Mephis would also participate in the war. They led over 160,000 mummy-type alien civilization monsters, directly splitting it so each controlled 80,000 monsters. Because the monsters they controlled were very different from the monsters under Ancient Demon King Andrisno, the two sides weren’t united and couldn’t take action in unison. It was fine as long as they cooperated to take independent action. This group was responsible for the flank maneuvers of Steinbeck Fief’s legions. If there were no exceptional cases, they wouldn’t make public contact with Steinbeck Fief’s army to avoid causing outsiders to suspect the relationship between the two sides.

The number of troops under the three earls and Marquis Charles summed to over 270,000. The number of troops under Clyde was also over 270,000. In terms of numbers, both sides were equal without a great difference. The only difference was that among the troops of Clyde, only 10,000 were human soldiers; the remaining 260,000 were all monsters. Basically, the quality of his troops was on another level as monsters wielded far more combat power.

Even adding up their entire military strengths, the 270,000 human soldiers wouldn’t be able to defeat those 100,000 monster soldiers under Ancient Demon King Andrisno, not to mention the 160,000 monster troops from a different dimension under Undead Queen Lafania and Cursed Queen Mephis. Even Light Church wouldn’t be able to gain the upper hand against these totally alien monsters; after all, these monsters were from another civilization that didn’t belong to this world. Therefore, the effects of Light Church’s traditional magics such as purification magic, holy light, and so on would be greatly reduced.

However, the biggest force of Steinbeck Fief was Clyde’s younger sister. The specific number of Bloodkin familiar troops following that wicked Bloodkin Lolita Lucifer was unknown, but Clyde conservatively estimated that it was at least 300,000. They were the strongest fighting strength guarding Steinbeck Fief. Among the human nations of Ximengsi Continent, other than those few super empires at the border, even if Clark Alliance, Victor Alliance, and Olan Treaty formed an allied army, not to mention capturing Steinbeck Fief, they wouldn’t even be able to break through the peripheries of the fief due to the protection of those Bloodkin familiars.

Among the high-level officers around Clyde, Princess Saras had no combat power, but she held the nominal position of Steinbeck Fief’s Suzerain. The commander of the fief’s army was the swordsman Princess Natalie who had Assassin Miss Jenny assisting her as her close girlfriend. Witch Ista was similar to Princess Saras. She and Miss Sigrid, the daughter of the former Suzerain of the Needham Plains, were very high ranked magicians. Ista had a very high level of spiritual power while Sigrid had time and space-summoning magic. Unfortunately, Steinbeck Fief didn’t have a magician squad that could cooperate with them to fight.

Ista and Sigrid could only fight by themselves on the battlefield since magicians were a super-expensive profession. Very few nations of Ximengsi Continent could support a magician squad. In addition to these female companions, there were Paladin Miss Alicia, her followers Aike, Ailu as well as her other female knights, Princess Halisi, and Earl Harrison’s family’s three misses. Although all had high-level professions, Clyde didn’t have complete trust in them yet. Thus, he didn’t give them the chance to participate in the war.

As for Sacred Moon Dragon Knight, Princess Verly, and Three-Headed Demonic Dragon Knight, Demon Princess Andrea, although the combat powers of these two princesses were the strongest, they had never given up on escaping; therefore, Clyde had no intention of having them help in this war. He needed to advance properly one step at a time, progressively drawing them into his camp.

Ancient Demon King Andrisno, Undead Queen Lafania, and Cursed Queen Mephis, without counting Lucifer who was a special existence or Valkyrie Cynthia who couldn’t easily join them publicly, these were the strongest units around Clyde. In this battle against Marquis Charles, victory or defeat was decided by the monster armies under them. The current situation was different from Atad. When fighting against Adelaide Kingdom, the numerical gap between Clyde and the enemy’s armies had not been this big, leaving the possibility for victory.

For the Needham Plains, Steinbeck Fief only had over 10,000 troops. No matter how strong they were, it was impossible for them to defeat Marquis Charles’s army of 120,000 troops. In addition, the soldiers on the other side were fully equipped. In the battle of Atad, if it were not for the sudden outbreak of the Undead calamity due to the indirect assistance of Young Master Hal, Clyde would have withdrawn his troops. He didn’t have the manpower to deal with the reinforcements of Adelaide Kingdom, he could only choose to fight advantageous strategic battles.

Later that night, the atmosphere in the palace became even more ambiguous, especially around the sleeping quarters. Beautiful white figures of maidens lay everywhere. Red candles illuminated the sleeping quarters. Furthermore, a special scented incense burned, bringing about a strange fragrance, all the more increasing the ambiguous atmosphere in the sleeping quarters.

Clyde lay sprawled out on a big bed. He was relaxing before beginning his expedition. After leaving, he wouldn’t have such a comfortable palace to do all kinds of obscure things. As a Great Old One, he didn’t need to sleep. Still, he decided to lay on the bed and rest like the Human Race to enjoy some particular benefits. On the big luxurious bed, there were special maids who served this Evil God. All were in completely bare states without exception. After getting on the big bed, even the final pieces of cloth that had covered their embarrassment were removed.

The beautiful knights Aike and Ailu massaged their master’s feet, lying at the base of the bed. Like two pets acting spoiled with their master, they used kissing techniques to massage him, making Clyde feel somewhat ticklish. A bit further up were Undead Queen Lafania and Cursed Queen Mephis. This pair of imperial sisters rode his right and left thighs with their white legs parted, massaging his thighs. Their softest and most private parts were in intimate contact with him. That comfortable feeling coming from their contact made Clyde seriously wonder whether these two sisters had practiced this many times before. Their technique was quite proficient.

Like the last time, Princess Halisi swallowed his towering evil. Although she was blushing, her technique had already become somewhat skilled from its original lacklusterness. After experiencing this several more times, she would finally master this wicked technique. Princess Saras and Princess Natalie knelt further up beside Clyde. They respectively held their master’s hands at their bosoms, making Clyde feel that astonishing elasticity. Originally, Clyde had wanted to make them change positions with Princess Halisi, but they were senior executives with important tasks, so he couldn’t tease them too much. Otherwise, if they couldn’t work tomorrow, then the daily tasks of Steinbeck Fief would be affected. Therefore, Clyde didn’t make them taste his wicked items.

Sacred Moon Dragon Knight, Princess Verly, knelt at the uppermost position. Her white legs were tied together and forced into a kneeling position. Her hands were also tied to her back with a red rope. A small red ball sealed her mouth, therefore, she could only use an embarrassed gaze to express her protestations. Clyde was using her white things as a pillow. Even though there were several other human princesses present here, since Verly was also a Dragon Knight, her lap pillow felt the best due to the suppleness of her thighs. After successive testing, he had determined Princess Verly to be the best pillow.

Witch Ista and Miss Sigrid lay beside Clyde. Ista’s complexion was red. This time, she didn’t know what had happened, but as if affected by the ambiguous atmosphere, like the doings of ghosts and gods, she had come to Clyde’s wicked sleeping quarters. Miss Sigrid’s complexion was not so red. After all, she had lived for a long time. She was not as shy as those little girls. These two beautiful magicians nestled beside Clyde and chatted with him while reporting the fruits of their magic research. They had just come to deal with some official business, but Clyde had incidentally swindled them into his bed.

Demon Princess Andrea faced her arch-rival, Sacred Moon Dragon Knight Verly. Her hands were also bound behind her back with a red rope, and she was forced into a shameful posture of bestriding Clyde’s abdomen. Her most private part made intimate contact with her master’s stomach. All her secrets were presented before his eyes, letting him enjoy at his will.

Andrea’s eyes were filled with her unwillingness. Merely, she too had been gagged by a red ball. She was a dignified princess of Demon Race, but now, she was unexpectedly treated like an ornament to play with at will by a human aristocrat. This shame, even if she were a liberal beauty of Demon Race, she would be unable to bear. At the four corners of the big bedwere four towering, silver poles where Assassin Jenny and the three ladies of Earl Harrison’s family, Eldest Miss Sophy, Second Miss Rebecca, and Third Miss Vignia, performed a pole dance with bright red faces in accordance with Clyde’s wicked requests. Their white ** and swaying bosoms formed the most beautiful bedside scenery.

Other than Jenny, the other three wore red leather collars with iron chains attached around their white necks. The other ends of the iron chains were bound to the tops of the poles to prevent them from sneaking away in the midst of their dancing. The most fortunate one present at the scene was Ancient Demon King Andrisno. With a document in her hands, she was reporting the preparations of the monster armies. Although she was also in a completely bare state, she didn’t need to get on the bed for the time being.

Clyde’s younger sister, Bloodkin Lolita Lucifer, had not come to the sleeping quarters. Clyde guessed that she was in a certain secret place of the palace, tasting the blood of her newest blood servants. If she came, Clyde truly wouldn’t have arranged a position for her. Lucifer was different from other beauties. She was like a manager who helped Clyde manage his harem. It was somewhat hard for him to put his hands on her.

“Saras, I think Princess Ophelia’s dream is not bad. Even if Clark Alliance unified Ximengsi Continent, slavery also has some redeeming qualities.”

“Wu, Mas... Master, if you wish, all will be done in accordance with your arrangements. In any case, Victor Alliance cannot stop a small territory from leaving the alliance.”

“Lord Clyde, then I will report it later. First...”

“Andrisno, why are you standing so far away like that? Come closer and report the situation. You don’t need to bring along the reporting documents. I don’t want to see them; just dictating them would be enough.”

“Eh, I... I understand.”
