It’s now the second day after I revived the 700,000 soldiers of the Empire’s forces.

Since there wasn’t sufficient space in the grand hall of Tempest, I gathered my subordinates in the battle arena to test out the evolution ritual.

This will also serve as the rewards for repelling the empire’s armies.

It’s also a victory celebration of sorts.

Actually, since the war hasn’t ceased yet we shouldn’t let down our guards, but it’ll be an exception this time.

This is also for the sake of improving soldier Morales.

The Ten Lords of the Labyrinth also made their formal appearances, and the battle arena’s jam-packed with soldiers.

Oh, for confidentiality, the human volunteers, the adventurers weren’t invited.

The city around the Dungeonthe fact it’s now named Labyrinth-Gardhasn’t been conveyed into the inside of the dungeon yet.

This is in consideration of the fact we may face surprise attacks during a war, it’s for the sake of caution.

The barrier stones haven’t been implemented into the surroundings of Labyrinth-Gard. Once the war is over I plan to perform a defensive ritual targeting wide-scale attack spells.

Due to present situations, there isn’t enough time to implement any defenses, but it can’t be helped.

Although the dungeon can’t be explored at the moment, food ingredients can still be traded.

Other than the adventurers, business is going as usual.

The volunteer soldiers have returned to Labyrinth-Gard, currently on standby in their own homes.

Only a section of individuals such as Masayuki and Arnaud were allowed to participate as representatives.

Anyways, rewards and commendations were given.

Incidentally, I also experimented on the Demon Lord Ascension.

Note: for those who don’t remember, was dubbed Demon Lord Ascension all the way back at chapter 71.

My evolution took 2~3 days, my level of activity has dropped due to the effects of Harvest Festival, however at the moment the empire’s armies aren’t here.

Note: Harvest Festival is the term used by the author to describe the evolution of a monster into a demon lord, probably because they harvested a load of souls for this.

It would seem the airship corps would take 3 days to fly around the back of The Holy Empire Ruberion’s territory, but after adjusting their advancement speed, they would hit open seas in 2 days.

When flying near supersonic speeds, they could reduce travel time by 1 day. However, magic consumption was immense, and they could only maintain their top speed for a short amount of time.

In this world, the ability to move at supersonic speeds is quite a threat, so I think a short amount of time is enough.

In any case, since the average speed for an airship is about 400km/h, when compared to a ship or a train this is pretty fast.

That’s why, you can say this is good timing.

It was an overwhelming victory this time, but the possibilities of a strong adversary lurking in the midst of the enemies still exist.

If Yuuki appeared, among all of my executives the only ones who could deal with him would probably be either Diablo or Benimaru.

If they messed up badly, there would be the risk of being dominated effect due to the information overwriting over the soul, resulting in the possibility of having a subordinate
