Having received Yuuki’s orders, Kagari had immediately jumped into action.
On that very day, 300 of Yuuki’s personal troops had gathered in a mansion in the Imperial Capital.
A mansion was easy to prepare with the funds left over from the Freedom Association days, and with the Damrada’s connections.
The ones who gathered had absolute fealty towards Yuuki.
It didn’t work when it was unstable children, but when the summoned happened to be adults, they were unknowingly put under the ‘Curse of Domination’.
Those summoned through the Unique Skill, ‘Summoner’ became, in effect, subordinates of Yuuki against their wills.
Yuuki wasn’t the only one doing this however. All the summoning done in this world had similar practices.
On a side note, sometimes, there are those who try to summon Devils because they think they can put them under the fealty curse.
Aside from humans, or Angels or Spirits with weak egos, Spirit Forms like Devils, who have strong egos, will often Resist the curse.
There are such arrogant fools who delve into the forbidden summoning arts putting too much confidence in their skills.
Yuuki’s coup d’état has been in preparation for quite some time now, so the people gathered were vaguely aware of what was going on.
A majority of them were ‘Otherworlders’ who had shown talent in the military.
They had climbed up the ranks relying on their own power.
Having no loyalty towards the Empire from the beginning, there were those among them who were excited at the prospect of a revolution.
There were others who were mix-breeds created by mating strong individuals of different races repeatedly, and still others who were slave warriors that Yuuki had procured.
In the Empire, might was right, so given the chance, even a slave could take hold of his freedom.
The Monster slaves gathered by Damrada were also present.
Such a thing would be preposterous in the Western nations, but the Empire simply had a different set of values.
For this reason, Yuuki had ordered the battle-oriented monsters that showed potential to be brought into the Empire.
Breaking it down: 30 ‘Otherworlders’, 50 devils, 100 mix-breed warriors, 100 slave warriors.
In the Mixed-Corps, they were the ones on the stronger side.
With Otherworlders, Devils, and Officer-class individuals, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that they would be members of the Mixed Corps headquarters.
Ascending the stairs from a large open lobby, they arrived at the large room built for conferences on the second floor.
As all of them had sat down, Yuuki and Kagari, and finally Damrada entered the room.
“Hey, everyone.
So today, I think we’ll kill the Emperor.
The enemy are 100 Royal Knights (TN: change; Emperors Personal Guards -> Royal Knights)
Some of you have already fought with them in hopes of raising your ranks, so you know they’re pretty strong.
But we have 100,000 troops on our side, so it’s a no brainer.
I just got the report that the Mixed Corps have successfully stationed themselves on the outskirts of the capital.
We’ll close off the 4 gates, and erect a force field to prevent escape.
