The southern region of Ximengsi Continent, the big dam area of Casper River in the vicinity of Atad

The special operation team of more than 1,000 people arranged by Earl Hamm and Viscount Peter had arrived here. They were accompanied by a carriage fleet filled with explosive barrels disguised as a carriage fleet transporting normal goods. These explosive barrels were something Viscount Peter had bought on a whim when he had traded with Kobold Race in the past. Afterward, he had never had a use for them, but now, there was a chance to use them for his wicked plan.

There were just over a hundred defending troops of Adelaide guarding the Casper River dam. The Suzerain of this area, Baron Vincent, was not particularly interested in place; after all, it had never had any major issues since his grandfather’s generation. In addition, Baron Vincent was quite stupid. Because of problems stemming from his despotic rules and heavy taxes, slaves continuously revolted. In order to subdue slaves, he maintained ruthless rules. Baron Vincent had repeatedly dismissed the defending troops of this dam and transferred them to suppress revolting slaves within his territory, steadily decreasing the defenses of this dam.

After many deployments, among the original over 2,000 defending troops around the dam, only a hundred or so were left. In addition, most of them were old, weak, sick or disabled; they couldn’t maintain the safety of this big dam. Because of delays and arrears of the soldier’s pay and provisions, the defending troops weren’t very enthusiastic. Their alertness levels were not high. When they saw over 1,000 kingdom troops escorting goods towards them, they believed that Baron Vincent had suddenly been stung by conscience and arranged for substitute troops to come and relieve the garrison.

“My God, His Excellency Baron Vincent finally remembered this place. Brothers, have you all come to relieve us?”

“Mmm, we have come to relieve the sentries. You all can rest.”

“Great, we finally don’t need to... Eh, your insignia doesn’t...”

While this defending soldier was not paying attention, a military dagger stabbed him in his back. Stabbed to death, he only gurgled in surprise before the dagger unsheathed itself from its flesh, letting him slide to the ground. Until his death, he didn’t understand why he had died in the hands of allied Adelaide kingdom troops. Those 1,000 troops quickly launched a surprise attack, but the scene quickly quieted. These hundred or so defending troops were unable to resist the attacks of over one thousand people. Very quickly, they were crushed, and their corpses were directly thrown into the Casper River. In a short time, only the bloodstains remaining on the big dam recounted the sins that had happened here.

“Act quickly, there is not much time. Bring all the goods from the carriages. Quickly! Otherwise, we will all be buried here.”

“Right away, you all...”

“Attack incoming! Enemy attack from the sky! My god! Is that Augusta Empire’s Olide Griffin Knight Regiment? Why are they here?”

After the special troops sorted out the defending troops, just as they had been about to transfer the explosive barrels to the planned positions along the big dam, attacks suddenly fell from the sky, instantly creating chaos among them. In addition, they immediately fell into a plight where they found it difficult to advance or to retreat. Looking up, they saw griffin knights flying in the sky wearing the iconic black iron armor that symbolized Augusta Empire’s knights. Circling lower, the griffin knight regiment descended from the sky and launched a surprise attack. Using wind-attributed long-range magic attack, with wind blades that cut swathes along the ground, they cut the troops on the ground to pieces.

The big dam blocking Casper River suddenly became a bloody hell. The special troops were all dismembered by the wind blade attacks. There was not a single intact corpse, making that scene quite tragic. The blood flowed into the river water and dyed it red. Facing the magic attacks, the armor worn by these soldiers was basically useless. After all, none wore magical armor; therefore, in front of magical attacks, their armor was like paper.

Olide Griffin Knight Regiment was Augusta Empire’s ace corps. Unless it was a very critical moment, they wouldn’t be easily dispatched. Among the various human empires in the interior area of Ximengsi Continent, these griffin knights were the pinnacle of knight regiments. As for groups like the Dragon Knight Regiment, only the empires at the borders like Phoenix Farrell Empire could form one.

“Damn it! I must complete the task given by His Excellency the Earl. It doesn’t matter if I have to shift the plans to half a day earlier. I...”

“You are discharged from your duties. Stop there!”

“No, just a bit...”

Upon seeing that the situation was hopeless, the leader of this special squad lifted a torch, intending to detonate the big dam of Casper River in advance. If the explosive barrels were ignited before they had been properly loaded onto the big dam, although the effects wouldn’t be as good, and it would also be far earlier than the agreed upon time, at least, the plans wouldn’t completely fail. However, the moment he lifted a torch, “Extreme Night Princess” Ophelia who rode a magnificent griffin made a prompt decision and pulled her bow, shooting the head of this leader. With an unreconciled expression, this leader helplessly fell beside the carriage fleet. The torch in his hand fell near an explosive barrel, just missing it. He had been off by a short, critical moment.

“These fellows planned to finish these matters ahead of time. Fortunately, we caught up.”

“Princess Ophelia, you have arbitrarily mobilized Olide Griffin Knight Regiment without going through His Majesty the Emperor first. After returning, you might be held accountable by His Majesty. Since Adelaide Kingdom is a member of Clark Alliance, you can be regarded as having betrayed the alliance as you have invaded Adelaide Kingdom.”

“Commander Aosi, let me be wilful this time. My old man’s response is too slow. Don’t pretend that you don’t know the risks. By the time he agreed, this place would have already exploded. Rest assured, after returning, I alone will take the responsibility. This will not implicate you.”

“Ophelia, I can’t shift all the responsibility onto you. I’m also responsible. Who asked me to be a good friend? When the time comes, share half the responsibility with me. Don’t show off by yourself. You’ve been like this since your childhood. Worst comes to the worst, I can just switch jobs. Among the many nations on this continent, do you really think that I can’t find a suitable one?”

Olide Griffin Knight Regiment’s commander Aosi was Princess Ophelia’s close girlfriend. Considering their friendship, she had agreed to Princess Ophelia’s reckless request without waiting for the emperor’s consent. Although this operation was successful, after returning, they might be in quite some trouble. It would take a very long time to deal with the aftermath.

While Olide Griffin Knight Regiment progressively took over the big dam blocking Casper River, the scouts hidden in the nearby forest used telescopic items to clearly see the situation around the big dam. Although they didn’t wear the mark of any army, they were equipped with peculiar daggers that were the exclusive weapons of Steinbeck Fief’s army, already proving their identities.

“They were faster than expected. Quickly use communication magic crystals to inform Her Excellency the Princess Natalie. Dhe dam of Casper River is already under the control of Augusta Empire. We’ll continue to monitor from here.”

In the vicinity of Atad, Samuel Village where Steinbeck Fief’s army was temporarily stationed

Towards the evening, the Suzerain residence was very quiet and peaceful. Despite being the nearest town to Atad, this place had unexpectedly become the safest area after the Undead calamity. There were over 100,000 demonic creatures under the command of Ancient Demon King Andrisno gathered here. Not to mention Atad, even the horde of over 200,000 undead creatures in Norton City wouldn’t dare to look for trouble against this demonic army.

This demonic creature army was immune to death qi. In addition, Ancient Demon King Andrisno had intentionally summoned demonic creatures that countered the Undead like corpse collectors, bone breakers, rot-eaters, and devourers. The former two were aimed against skeletons, and the latter two were high-level ghouls that targeted the bodies of the Undead. There were even demonic creatures that countered specters called soul devourers. From the very beginning, the Undead legion had had no chance of winning. Even if they were many times superior in numbers, it was useless.

Under the attribute restraint, the Undead army could only take a detour rather than risk a confrontation. They didn’t dare to rush into Samuel Village and court death. Thus, Clyde didn’t need to worry about anyone coming to disturb his good deeds. In the bedroom of the Castellan residence, there was an ambiguous atmosphere. Clyde stood by the bed, and Princess Halisi, Eldest Miss Sophy, Second Miss Rebecca, and Third Miss Vignia who had temporarily been freed from the binding of wicked items were in front of him. However, they were still wearing just those appealing gem undergarments. In addition, this place was Clyde’s domain. It was impossible for them to run away like this.

“Sire Clyde, we are already clear about the matters of Atad. Can you...”

“I can’t. Miss Vignia, you all can stay here with at ease. That place has already been occupied by Undead creatures. In addition, that fellow Hal is no longer a human being. Returning to that city would only mean turning into an Undead.”

“Sire Clyde, my father will pay...”

“Princess Halisi, I don’t lack money. How can the ransom from King Halid the Second be as valuable as you? Don’t think about it, I will not accept a ransom.”

The complexion of Princess Halisi and the others became red. They had never thought that they had invited a wolf into their house. Although the other party was a handsome young man, this was too overbearing. Halisi and Vignia didn’t dare to use magic to resist because the wicked gem undergarments they were wearing might vibrate at any time; therefore, they basically were unable to concentrate their energy to launch magic attacks.

“Sire Clyde, how do you plan to deal with us? Steinbeck Fief is a member of Victor Alliance; it doesn’t practice slavery. You cannot...”

“Miss Sophy, the rules of Victor Alliance have little to nothing to do with me. Moreover, no one knows you all are in my hands. Everyone estimates that you all died in the Undead calamity of Atad and have already turned into Undead creatures by now.”

Gradually, these four beautiful ladies became more and more afraid. What Clyde spoke was correct. Now, they were completely under the control of this Evil God. If this Evil God wanted to sacrifice them, they would have no way to resist. After seeing these beauties already had their hearts in their mouths, Clyde took out contracts prepared in advance and placed them in front of Princess Halisi and the others.

After experiencing many encounters with beautiful women, Clyde now had no misgivings. As long as he could recruit beautiful girls as subordinates, even if the means were wicked, it would be fine. He was an Evil God with the identity of a Great Old One, so he was easily influenced by his evil attribute to do some wicked things.

“Don’t be afraid. It’s safe to sign this contract. The construction of Steinbeck Fief needs a lot of talents. I need you all.”

“But, isn’t this a slave...”

“That’s just a form, nothing more. Even Jenny and Princess Natalie have also signed this contract with me. It doesn’t restrict your freedom.”

Under the threats and promises of Clyde, embarrassed expressions appeared on the faces of Princess Halisi and the others. Then, after brief but intense internal struggle, they finally signed the enslavement contract and pressed their thumbprints, accepting Clyde’s arrangements. After signing, they looked at Clyde using shy and uneasy gazes, thinking Clyde would immediately use his Master privilege to steal their first times.

Clyde made these four girls lie side by side on the big bed with their hands behind their heads. Their white legs naturally came apart, assuming shameful postures indicating that they were ready to be enjoyed. On the other side, Sacred Dragon Knight Verly and Demon Princess Andrea had bright red faces. Although they couldn’t see, they could hear Clyde’s voice and clearly knew that a very erotic affair was going to happen beside them. As a result, they were even more worried that they would be implicated. At that time, this Evil God taking them two in passing was not impossible.

“It’s not a bad night today! Tonight... you all are very beautiful. Rest assured, I will be gentle as possible. Well then, I’ll start now.”

“Master, our scout unit has sent a secret message, Augusta Empire has already taken control of the big dam blocking Casper River. The Olide Griffin Knight Regiment personally led by Princess Ophelia has occupied that place.”

“Princess Ophelia is so efficient in handling affairs. Now, we don’t need to worry about being flushed away and also have made a profit of over 60,000 gold coins. What’s up? Jenny, do you have something else to report?”

“I’m extremely sorry to disturb you, but Master, the city gates of Atad have been broken. A large number of Undead have burst open the gate and are rushing over here.”

“Truly disappointing. Well, I will spare you all tonight. Jenny, stay here and take care of them, I will go to deal with this.”
