After undergoing a few rounds of chaos, the 30,000 troops under Earl Winissa were finally brought together again. Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle were their only commanders since Norma temporarily couldn’t manage the army.
When Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle arrived in Earl Winissa’s bedroom, Clyde had already concealed himself with dark magic, Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle passed by him, but they didn’t notice him. The room had not changed from when Baron Burke had left it; it was still a big mess.
On the soft big bed, Norma’s and others’ eyes were blurred. They had already lost themselves to that magic potion and were indulging in taboo happiness. These white lambs had red faces as they hugged and kissed each other while rubbing their soft and smooth bodies against each other. In a situation where no man was present, they could only resolve their needs like this.
“I didn’t expect Norma, who is usually so cold, to have this appearance now!”
“The magic potion’s effect is not fake. Baron Thomas truly gave me genuine goods. As long as this potion is taken, even the aloof and ascetic saintesses of the Light Church will act like prostitutes. Let’s get this thing done!”
“You… you can’t do this. Earl Winissa won’t let you off…”
Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle showed very vulgar smiles as they walked forward while untying their belts, revealing their legendary beasts. Norma and the others turned redder as they used their hands to cover their chests. At the same time, they were unable to control their movements. Their bodies became slightly inclined as if they wanted to lower their heads to bear those sources of evil.
Norma did her best to avoid a fit of anger. At this moment, they were all just pretending. Just a moment ago, a certain someone had kissed their bodies and fed them with his seed. In addition, Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle’s sizes were not as majestic as their master’s. She was able to determine this just by a visual estimate. If not for Clyde’s instructions, she wouldn’t have gotten so close. Making a usually aloof beauty pretend to be a seductive prostitute was truly demanding a lot. It was a big challenge for her.
Just when Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle were preparing to enjoy themselves, a pallid light suddenly flashed in front of them. Clyde appeared from the shadows and swung his knight sword, instantly cutting off those two ominous things. Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle had their rods fly in the air with blood splashing everywhere. In the next moment, they felt severe pain from the lower parts of their bodies. The two men covered their lower parts and fell to the ground screaming like slaughtered pigs.
“Unexpectedly, my cut was quite accurate.”
“Mas… Master, if you hadn’t made a move, I… I might have truly bitten.”
“Norma, such a dangerous matter like biting it off, you are not allowed to think about it in the future!”
“Got it.”
After Clyde appeared, Norma and the others finally relaxed. Even for the briefest of periods, it was impossible for them to serve these men. They shyly covered their chests while watching Clyde. He turned his sword and ruthlessly pierced through Baron Burke’s chest who died with grievances. His eyes were wide open as if something unbelievable had happened. He fruitlessly reached out his hands to grab something in the air, but in the end, he merely froze and died. Baron Burke had never thought that he would lose everything even after using all his tricks. He was killed by Clyde who he didn’t even know.
“Don’t… don’t kill me! I was just confused for a moment! Lord Norma, spare… spare my life!”
Viscount Carlisle’s face was deathly pale. That sword stuck in Baron Burke’s corpse made him feel an incomparable fear. Clyde looked at Norma, waiting for her decision. Norma hesitated before looking at Clyde with a questioning gaze. After all, this devil was her master now. She needed to understand his true intentions before making a decision. After getting a secret signal from him, Norma finally said something that relieved Viscount Carlisle.
“Viscount Carlisle, considering the friendship between my clan and Marquis Charles, you can leave, but you cannot take your army. The army must stay. And I will take back your peerage.”
“There’s no need to be so heartless! I… I haven’t even… ah!”
“Truly talkative. Do you want another one of your legs broken? Scram if you don’t want it!”
“I… I will scram!”
Originally, Viscount Carlisle wanted to thicken his face and negotiate, but under Clyde’s threat, this man covered his lower part, grabbed some pants, and ran away. That same night, Viscount Carlisle took a few trusted subordinates and slipped away from Ord Castle, fleeing towards the center of the Needham Plains. He went to his behind-the-scenes supporter, Marquis Charles, for shelter. Clyde’s ruthlessness scared Viscount Charles enough that he didn’t dare to attempt any revengeful plots. He didn’t dare to speak any sharp words to retrieve some face before running away. If he was a step too late, Clyde might renege on his offer of mercy.
Along with Viscount Carlisle’s retreat, Baron Burke’s death and Housekeeper Norma’s surrender, over 30,000 troops stationed in Ord Castle also surrendered. The chief commander Earl Winissa received her Earl seal from Clyde and publicly declared that Olm Fortress would remain neutral and no longer participate in the battle on Marquis Charles’s side.
However, the over 30,000 troops under Earl Winissa also weren’t incorporated into Clyde’s side for the time being. Declaring neutrality was the best choice. On the surface, they were neutral, but they would let Steinbeck Fief’s army pass through Aldington River and their defenses. In essence, it was no different from an alliance. During this time, Earl Winissa wanted to unify her troops. She had to remove the high-ranking military officers who had supported Baron Burke and Viscount Carlisle first, dividing and re-taking the power into her own hands.
Currently, Earl Winissa had to take precautions against Earl Royle stationed in Grand Tonitas Fortress at the center of Tonist City. That fellow also had over 30,000 troops. Among them, over 20,000 were his own direct troops. The remaining 10,000 or so were troops under the aristocrats that followed him. This Earl was in Marquis Charles’s clique. Even their clans had a good relationship. Basically, a betrayal between them would never appear. After Earl Winissa declared her neutrality, she had to guard against him the most since they were rather close.
When Clyde’s side fought a decisive battle against Marquis Charlies at the center of the Needham Plains, they could only deploy human soldiers, which was just over 20,000 soldiers. However, Marquis Charles had over 40,000 soldiers, at least twice as many as Clyde’s side.
Before leaving Olm Fortress, Steinbeck Fief’s army stayed there for a few days. Before the war began, they transported a large supply of army provisions via Aldington River. Earl Winissa helped build and repair warships. Now, this place acted as the latest forward position of Steinbeck Fief’s army. If the frontlines were defeated, Clyde’s party could easily retreat here to take a breather.
In a secret room of Sieg Pier, Clyde’s younger sister, the Bloodkin Lolita Lucifer, dressed in a black gothic Lolita outfit, entered a dimly lit special room. Various whips, small balls, collars, and other wicked erotic items hung on the walls. They could easily make people indulge in fantasy. After passing by all kinds of wicked erotic items, Lucifer finally arrived at her destination. She was welcomed by her Bloodkin Countess as well as several bloodkin maids in the background. Although they were taller than Lucifer, they bowed and respectfully greeted the Queen they followed.
“Your Majesty the Queen, you are finally here. Your tributes have already been prepared. Please have a look!”
“Mmm.”
Lucifer indifferently replied. There were no obvious emotional fluctuations in her tone, preventing these subordinates from guessing their Queen’s mood. Lucifer only showed her true feelings in front of Clyde. When dealing with her subordinate kin, she maintained her majesty by being a cold and aloof queen.
With the Bloodkin Countess taking the lead, Lucifer went into the depths of the room and saw the imprisoned white lambs there. Kanna, the young lady of Viscount Carlisle’s family, looked at Lucifer with a terrified gaze. That petite Bloodkin Lolita seemed to be the master of these Bloodkin and would determine their fates. The sound insulation of this secret room was very good, so black blindfolds and small balls were not necessary here. In any case, people outside wouldn’t hear any sounds.
“Don’t… don’t kill us! I beg you to spare us!”
“You are… this taste? It resembles Suhiya and the others! Are you a person of the Light Church?”
“I… I’m a substitute member of the Light Church’s Holy Knight Regiment. I’ve seen the saintesses before.”
Lucifer reached out her little hand and lifted Kana’s chin. She scanned this white lamb, as if she were sizing up a prey, and revealed her fangs that emitted a pallid light as if they would dig into the white lamb’s white neck at any time. Kana had no courage to resist. The shameful rearing environment of the past few days had wiped out her dignity and will. Although she vaguely predicted that Lucifer had some other plans for her, she didn’t dare to ignore this Bloodkin Lolita. She straightforwardly explained her life’s affairs.
“So it turns out that you’re a candidate of the Light Church’s Holy Knight Regiment. Interesting… Little Big Sister, I have a plan. If you are willing to help, you don’t have to stay here. You are a smart person, so you should understand what I mean!”
“I… I’m willing to serve, but… but can they…”
“Yes, as long as you help, everyone with you will be pardoned.”
