The Day She Became the Malevolent Demon Lord

Chapter 10

I was about to post two at the same time. But I accidentally posted that chapter. Either way, it doesn't matter. So here's the next chapter, I hope you enjoy it!

Central Colony Capital

Nadia was seen in a conference room with Zen, Reese, and Willow present. However, Reese sticks close to Zen while Willow stayed rather close to Nadia.

In front of them was the Western Heiress and her group fully recovered from their experience with Da Vinci's reckless driving.

The Western Heiress and her royal guards explained the situation as well as her escape in a short summary. Apparently, one of the Western Queens committed suicide after ordering her best guards to stall the Demon Lord's subordinate long enough for her escape then assigned her Heiress to hide in the Central Colony in an attempt to recreate a more independent colony than being enslaved by the Demon Lord's clutches.

But on the way here, they were chased by the underlings of the Demon Lord's subordinates, and the possibility of them storming this place is high.

Hence, it's possible that they'll arrive at this location very soon.

"This is indeed a problem," Nadia said, "But it might give us an advantage,"

"How so?" Zen inquired,

"With the enemy closing in on this place, they wouldn't expect an attack since this place has been abandoned for several years," Nadia concluded, "Therefore, we have the element of surprise. However,"

"This subordinate will not take things lightly the moment he hears that one of his own men had gone missing," Reese pointed out, "If anything, they would send more and it'll lead to suspicion,"

"We're still not prepared to take on the Demon Lord's subordinate. Much less his underlings without raising even the slightest of suspicion to anyone out there," Nadia said, "We need to think this carefully,"

"And how do you think we should do that?" Willow questioned,

"You could try capturing them," The Western Heiress suggested, and the attention was now towards her, 

"Capture them? If only were that simple," Zen remarked,

"Actually, it is simple," Te Western Heiress said, "I've managed to gather some intel of my own before my escape and we've discovered that the subordinate in question doesn't possess the ability to detect any sort of mind manipulations. Instead, he values power over observation and he tends to do this whenever he has time to..."

The Western Heiress trails off when she had recalled a traumatic event in her time. Nadia would already see her arms shaking a bit and she can tell what was on her mind.

"You don't have to force yourself to say what you don't want to say. Just focus on the details of this Subordinate you're talking about," Nadia insisted, and the Western Heiress nodded in response before continuing,

Apparently, the subordinate in question has at least thousands of underlings under his command and he tends to use them to threaten the ants into doing his own becking call his abilities alone is rather troublesome for an average opponent.

But one of his ability is involved shouting his command, and the ants and his subordinates would have no choice but to obey him. Thus leading to the conclusion that this is something called a [Command Mantra].
