The Mad Prince’s triumphant advance.
Pochi’s Point of View
We finally arrived at the royal capital of Shamcats. As usual, the Dragon-sans and Dungeon Master-san broke through the city's defensive walls along with the barrier protecting them.
"Let's go, everyone!!"
"Oh!"
"”Okay~””
"Rosariiiin!!"
"Understood!"
"Dragon-sans and Dungeon Master-san, try to draw as many soldiers away as possible!"
"Leave it to us!"
Dragon-san and Dungeon Master-san scattered, luring the soldiers away at their garrisons.
"Clear the path!"
"Got it! Wahahahaha!"
Jend’s Fake-father mowed down the soldiers, sending them flying as if it were some kind of joke.
"I won't let anyone get in Oniichan's way!"
"Anyone who tries to stop us will be taken down!"
The twins created an ice wall on the right and a wall of flames on the left, blocking all access.
"Rosariiiin!!"
Fake-Rin was teleporting people from inside the walls to the outside. It seemed she was mostly dealing with the civilians.
"Now, it's your time to shine, my adorable darlings!!"
The golems I created were summoned all at once.
"Ufufu… fufufufufu!!"
"Ahahahaha!!"
Shaka-kun, Shaka-san white cat versions, all charged in at once. Even though they had no lower halves, they were ridiculously fast. Looking closely, I saw some moving with their palms, while others propelled themselves with their elbows.
"Hiiiii!?"
"Gyahhhhhh!!"
Shaka-kun and Shaka-san delivered deep kisses one after another, knocking out the soldiers.
Meanwhile, Hand-kun and his squad assisted by restraining fleeing soldiers and forcibly lining them up for more deep kisses.
I had my reservations, but… it's better than them getting seriously injured, right? So I convinced myself to go along with it.
"Kikikikiki!!"
"Kyahahahaha!!"
Ripper-chan and her crew were enthusiastically shredding weapons—and, as a little extra, slicing up clothing as well.
The way they cut was oddly meticulous, always targeting the spots that should remain covered… Maybe it was just my imagination? I wanted to believe that. They seemed to be having so much fun, eyes rolling back in excitement. Surely, they weren’t doing it on purpose. Even as some middle-aged man yelped and wiggled around, I decided to just… not think about it.
Meanwhile, the zombie-kun squad advanced at a leisurely pace… and I walked ‘normally’ behind them, taking my time.
Surrounded by hundreds of zombie-kuns, I strolled through the main street until we finally reached the castle gates.
"Close the gates! Don't let those monsters in!"
"Are you abandoning us!? Let us in!"
"Noooo!! Motherrrrr!!"
"Out of the way! Move!!"
"Help meee!!"
Wow. This really looks like one of those horror movies I watched before. People screaming, running in fear, descending into panic. Yep, just as expected. This will make capturing them all the easier.
On the other hand, if they kept their formation and responded calmly, that would be troublesome. If they barricaded themselves in, it would be a pain.
As predicted, the panicked soldiers shut the castle gates and raised the drawbridge over the moat.
Everything was going according to plan. Now, it's your turn!
"Rosariiiin!!"
Introducing my latest weapon—the Valkyrie Prototype. Twice the size of a Knight Valkyrie, it’s a masterpiece Ernst and I meticulously designed. With a white-themed form faithfully recreating Oneechan’s Valkyrie, it even boasts transformation capabilities.
Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, but it's also incredibly powerful—truly a magnificent golem!
"Rosariiiiiin!!"
In knight mode, it effortlessly tore the drawbridge from the castle gate and gently laid it down as a bridge. And from there, the horror golems swarmed in.
"Ahhh, help me!!"
"No, not my first kiss! My first should have been with a cute girl—gah…!"
"Run! This country is finished!!"
"Rosariiin."
The fake Valkyrie, whether meticulous or careless, tore down sections of the castle walls and filled the moat, carefully smoothing it over. The surroundings were in complete chaos, but somehow, the sight was oddly soothing.
"Rosariiiiiin!!"
Once it had destroyed enough of the castle walls, it started helping the zombie-kuns, capturing soldiers and tossing them to the horror golems.
Before I knew it, the area around the castle gate had gone completely silent.
"Well then. Good night~"
Using Tsuyoshi, I quickly drew a magic circle. This was a sleep magic spell Ernst had devised. I also sealed the castle to prevent reinforcements from arriving.
"… A truly impressive display, My Lord. It seems I had no role to play at all."
General Georgie chuckled wryly. Since his involvement would likely result in casualties, I had assigned him to guard me instead.
"Then, I entrust you with guiding us. I will be relying on you from here on."
"As you command, My Lord."
And so, we leisurely made our way into the castle.
