The wrong transmigrator assigned by the system

It turns out that Rael had given the choice to her and Myra, and did not intend to choose his future wife himself.

While Rells' actions may have avoided the possibility of Torres acting recklessly, they also created a huge problem for Schumira and Myra.

Standing outside the room, after reading the entire letter, Shumira put it back in the envelope and had a servant deliver it to her room. She then returned to her room, pretending to know nothing, and sat back down to continue eating her breakfast.

But Myra gleaned a few clues from her clumsy acting. First, Rael was alright, otherwise Shumira would be very anxious right now. Second, the letter's contents must be related to the twin sisters from Yaru, otherwise Shumira wouldn't keep glancing at the twins.

So Myra guessed Rael's thoughts, and also guessed that Rael would most likely give the choice to her and Shumira. She was momentarily at a loss for words.

Looking at the two sisters opposite them, who seemed to have almost no guile, neither Myra nor Shumira knew which one to choose. They both felt they should test the sisters to see which one was more cunning and capable of shouldering the responsibilities of the Grand Duke of Yaru!

Therefore, Shumira suddenly spoke up and asked the two sisters, "Hey, we need to take care of some things in the city this afternoon, would you like to come and help?"

"Shouldn't these things be the responsibility of the Grand Dukes or Earls?" Comina, the younger of the two sisters, asked in surprise and with some fear as she looked at Schumila.

"The Grand Duke is currently inspecting the preparations of the Deucalion Cavalry at the border, and Count Lothric has gone with him. Of the other counts, those who could help with the management are unable to come. Count Vlad is handling logistical support for the Deucalion Cavalry, and Count Amon is injured and unable to manage these matters. Therefore, we are left to handle these tasks. Furthermore, Rael's letter also requested our assistance."

Upon hearing this, the younger of the two sisters stopped thinking about it and agreed to Shumira's suggestion. However, the older sister refused to help no matter what, as if she was afraid of crossing Grand Duke Rael's bottom line.

Seeing this, both Shumira and Myra made a preliminary decision, but it's still unclear who they will ultimately choose... (To be continued.)

Chapter 80 - The Invisible Shadow

As time passed, the main armies of the three duchies of Erebus, Tartarus, and Styx began their campaign against Yaru, advancing towards its capital from three directions. Regardless of which Yaru army they encountered along the way, they were all driven to their surrender.

Such oppressive force instilled unimaginable fear in the people of the Duchy of Yaru, who involuntarily migrated from the outskirts of villages and towns to the capitals of the various earls or even to the capital of the Duchy of Yaru, seeking the protection of the armies of the various earls and the strongest army under the Grand Duke, the 'Pan Field Army'.

Unlike the thoughts of these people, Edsotuf Hakz, the puppet Grand Duke who was put to power by the evil cult and the illegitimate son of the previous Grand Duke of Yaru, knew that Yaru's main army could no longer protect him and the people. Now he desperately wanted to escape the capital to avoid being engulfed in flames along with the city under the combined attack of the three duchies.

Unfortunately, the members of the evil cult were watching him and his brothers and sisters every moment, preventing them from escaping the city that was destined to be destroyed!

Sitting in his enormous mansion, which was nominally a ducal palace but in reality a prison, Duke Hakz learned for the first time about the helplessness and bitterness his father had experienced during his reign.

The army was corrupted by the evil cult, and the nobles were controlled. Only a few remained loyal, yet powerless to change anything. All they could do was secretly send their children out of Yaru before the villains staged a coup, allowing them to live in anonymity. Only after the evil cult emerged, incurring public wrath and being destroyed by other duchies, were they able to return to the devastated Yaru and lead the people in rebuilding the duchy…

Just as Grand Duke Hakz was contemplating how he would die and how historians would insult him, several members of the Church of Evil Spirits suddenly pushed open the door and entered the room.

Looking at the thugs with their menacing eyes, Grand Duke Hakkarz laughed, laughing at his own mistaken attachment to the capital's beauty, for not fleeing sooner for Styx...

"Have you come to end my life?" If death was inevitable, then Grand Duke Hakz chose to accept it gladly. So he asked the villains with a smile.

“No, no, no, Your Grace, you cannot die now. After all, Pan’s general is the only one in Yaru capable of leading an army against Deucalion of Erebus, Persephone of Tartarus, and Nyarlathotep of Styx. If you die, this man who can rival the main armies of the three great duchies will not hesitate to defect. That would be terrible for our Church of the Evil Spirits!” One of the leaders of the cult of the Church of the Evil Spirits said with a wicked smile.

Then, another cult member added: "If you want to choose suicide or rebellion, think of your brothers and sisters! Their life or death is in your hands!"

Looking at the cultists who were facing death but still dreaming, Grand Duke Hakz suddenly asked, "I don't understand why you still won't give up even though things should have turned out this way. What do you have to rely on to be enemies of the three duchies and not be afraid of failure?"

"Hahahahaha~!!!" The cultists burst into laughter upon hearing Grand Duke Hakz's question, as if they had heard the funniest thing ever!

Just as Grand Duke Hakz was puzzled by these madmen, one of them suddenly spoke up: "Whether this operation can change the world, we don't know. But as long as it can change Yaru, plunging Yaru into pain and torment, that will be enough!"

"You bunch of lunatics!"

“That’s right, we’re madmen. But right now, aren’t you, a normal person, in the hands of us madmen?” The leader of the evil cult said to Grand Duke Hakz with a loud laugh.

Then, he took out a document from his clothes, slammed it heavily on the table, and said viciously, "Now, all of us normal people, hurry up and sign it, so that our Evil Spirit Church can become the only church that can be believed in the Principality of Yaru!"

Seeing the man's fierce gaze, Grand Duke Hakz thought of his young sister and finally reluctantly signed the document.

As soon as he finished writing the last word, the member of the evil cult immediately snatched the document, led the other members of the evil cult, and quickly left the room, locking the door to prevent Grand Duke Hakz from escaping.

"Father, tell me, is it right or wrong to exchange Yaru's suffering for a new life?" When he was alone in the room again, Grand Duke Hakz looked at the empty room and murmured to himself.

Suddenly, a sharp sword pierced through the chair he was sitting on from behind, piercing him and the chair itself.

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Grand Duke Hakz lowered his head, looking at the section of the sword that had pierced his chest. A look of relief and worry appeared on his face. Finally, as the sword was withdrawn from his body, he collapsed onto his desk and slowly lost his life.

-----------------------------------

On the border of a count's territory in Yaru, the Deucalion Cavalry Regiment of Torres is facing off against the army within the count's territory.

Like most armies encountering Deucalion's pure cavalry regiments, which consisted mostly of heavy cavalry and the rest of light cavalry, the count's forces were filled with fear upon even seeing Deucalion's knights.

Looking at the military banner of Deucalion, which featured a four-horned, fire-breathing black dragon, the lord of the Earl's territory, an earl who had joined the Church of the Evil Spirits, began for the first time to question whether his decision to join the Church of the Evil Spirits and assassinate the previous Grand Duke was the right one.

But at this moment, thinking about these things is meaningless. In this confrontation between two armies, the only options are to charge or be charged.

After all, Deucalion had slaughtered countless members of the evil cult along his journey. Moreover, he had fed them to the creatures of the Shadow World or other elemental worlds, ensuring their souls would be forever enslaved by the goddesses of the Shadow World or the gods worshipped by other elemental beings.

Therefore, surrendering is useless, and the Deucalion Cavalry never accepts surrender.

Helpless, the count could only grit his teeth, raise his weapon, and roar at his army, which consisted mostly of members of the Church of Evil Spirits: "Charge!!"

This is woodland, where cavalry can't charge effectively, so seizing the initiative is crucial. If infantry with lances can get to the cavalry, then the cavalry, unable to charge, are far less effective than the infantry!

Unfortunately, Deucalion was no ordinary cavalry regiment; it was the most elite army of Erebus. Their horses and armor were of the highest quality, and even their weapons were among the best crafted by the Hunters' organization. One longsword, named 'Irithyll's Chillwind,' was forged by the Hunters' organization's orc-eared blacksmith using a fragment of Lu Ming's old Irithyll straight sword, a pair of blue flame swords, and one hundred and eight dragon scales. It could effortlessly tear through Puru's last armor in a single strike, and like Priscilla's short sword, it could imbue the user's sword strikes with a powerful chill!

Lu Ming has now given this precious sword to Tures Hedist. He doesn't like using it, and no one else needs such a sword.

Gripping his gleaming sword, Tures coldly stared at those fools who dared to charge his 15,000-strong cavalry regiment with only 5,000 infantrymen. He then ordered his adjutant, Haimir, "Have Kokodora use Rock Seal, and have the Yongjira use Psychic!"

Immediately, Haimir issued the order, and instantly a row of enormous rocks was created by the Cocodors, crashing down from mid-air onto the Yaru army, killing countless Yaru soldiers. These boulders also formed a high wall, separating the Yaru army from the rear, preventing the soldiers in front from retreating and the soldiers in the rear from continuing their attack.

Then, the soldiers of the Duchy of Yaru, who were behind the megalithic wall, heard screams and the sounds of bones being crushed and broken from the soldiers in front of the wall. For a moment, they were bewildered and gripped by fear, not knowing what had happened.

However, in the next moment, the megalithic wall suddenly shattered and collapsed, stirring up a cloud of dust that obscured Yarlung's view.

Unable to see anything clearly, Yalu Fang was plunged into fear and confusion.

Suddenly, the earth began to shake, and a deafening roar could be heard.

Looking towards the smoke and dust, Count Arrufon could not believe that Deucalion's heavy cavalry were charging towards them in this forest as if they were on flat ground!

"To die in battle against Deucalion is the best outcome!" the Count muttered to himself. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he took a deep breath and led his personal guards into the battle.

Whether you are captured or surrender, the outcome is the same, so why not have a great battle!

As the only cavalryman in the army, the count and his personal guard quickly charged into the battlefield, colliding with the Deucalion knights who emerged from the dust and smoke.

The Deucalion Cavalry had 10,000 heavy cavalry, while the knights of the Count of Yaru were all light cavalry, and including the Count himself, they numbered no more than 400.

So, after just one encounter, the Earl's personal guard was almost wiped out.

And this unfortunate count of the Duchy of Yaru also encountered Torres Hedist, who wielded the Irithyll Coldwind Straight Sword.

With a single sword strike, Toures severed the count's sword and ended his life.

The last thing the count saw was a faint glint of cold blue light flashing by...

Ten minutes later, the Deucalion Cavalry completely routed the Count's army and began leading the prisoners toward the Count's capital.

Of the five thousand Yaru soldiers, only seventy-two remained after the battle with Deucalion. It's fair to say that Deucalion's elite cavalry regiment was a formidable meat grinder on the battlefield! Not to mention how terrifying its fighting power became after Kokodora and Kazyra joined Deucalion!

-----------------------------------

As Deucalion conquered one of the three countships of Yaru, the members of the Evil Spirit Church in the capital city were thrown into a panic.

Compared to Tartarus and Styx, the Deucalion Cavalry of Erebus was undoubtedly a formidable enemy of the Church of the Evil Spirits. They showed no mercy to the Church of the Evil Spirits, relentlessly pursuing them to the point of ruthlessness. Whenever they captured a village or city, they would inevitably begin massacring the Church of the Evil Spirits' followers. It was as if they intended to completely wipe out the Church of the Evil Spirits' forces in Yarru, instilling fear in the members of the Church of the Evil Spirits.

Left with no other choice, they decided to send out Yalu's elite troops, Pan.

The problem is that Pan's army refuses to obey the orders of the Evil Spirit Church. If it weren't for the fact that many of the previous Grand Duke's children were in the hands of the Evil Spirit Church, Pan might have launched an attack on Yaru's capital without hesitation.

So the members of the Church of Evil Spirits had no choice but to go to Duke Hakz again and ask him to write an order to Pan's general, instructing him to lead Pan's army to intercept Deucalion.

But when they pushed open the door that hadn't been opened for several days, what they saw was the cold, stiff corpse of Grand Duke Hakz!

Immediately, they were all gripped by fear and panic.

Just as the members of the evil cult were in a panic, someone suddenly shouted, "Don't panic!!"

Instantly, all the other members of the evil cult turned to look at him. Then he said, "That kid is dead, but we still have his sister, right? Let her succeed him!"

"That's right!!"

“Ernnis, you’re the smartest one. You know to keep those brats alive, unlike the others who just torture those brats to death.”

Hearing his companion's praise, Ernest was not complacent. Instead, he said to the others, "Let's hurry and get that girl to write down the orders, or those madmen of Deucalion will march on this city!"

Upon hearing this, the men immediately realized that now was not the time for mutual flattery. They then joined Ernest in leading a small room in the Grand Duke's mansion. There, they roughly woke a frail little girl from her sleep and forced her to write an order for Pan's general.

Perhaps knowing that those people had come to make her write the orders because her brother, like her other older siblings, was dead, the poor little girl silently shed tears as she wrote them.

Seeing the little girl's tears fall onto the paper, one of the members of the evil cult tried to kick the child in the head, but instead was kicked to the ground by Ernest!

"If you want to be enslaved by other gods, don't drag the entire Evil Spirit Church down with you!!" Ernest shouted, stepping on the member of the Evil Spirit Church.

The member of the evil cult who was being trampled on by Ernest roared angrily after being reprimanded by Ernest: "Ernnest, you bastard who has never tortured anyone before, what right do you have to criticize me!?"

Hearing the man's words, Ernes sneered, drew his longsword, and plunged it directly into the man's thigh. He said coldly, "Unlike you, who only thinks of yourself, I have to consider the sake of this evil cult and cannot indulge myself recklessly. Besides, how do you know I haven't tortured others?"

Seeing their companion scream in agony under Ernest's sword, the other members of the Church of Evil were terrified. No one dared to save their companion.

Furthermore, they felt Ernest was right; after all, how do you know I haven't tortured others? Aren't I torturing you right now? (To be continued.)

Chapter 81 - Deucalion and Pan

While the main forces of Tartarus and Styx were still locked in a fierce battle with the armies of the remaining two counts of the Duchy of Arru, Erebus's Deucalion Cavalry had already begun its march toward the capital of the Duchy of Arru.

The excellent warhorses, coupled with Erebus's superb logistical support, allowed Deucalion to continue fighting after a series of battles. Furthermore, the enhanced puppet soldiers created by Miral proved highly effective against the puppet soldiers of the Duchy of Yaru.

Twenty-one puppet soldiers alone were enough to defeat the more than ten thousand puppet soldiers of the Yaru Kingdom with their enchanted staffs.

This fighting strength allowed Deucalion to focus entirely on fighting the army of the Duchy of Aruru without having to expend extra energy fighting the puppet soldiers.

But just as Deucalion was about to reach the capital of Yaru, the strongest infantry legion in all of Miracaissa, the Pan, blocked his way.

Pan is the god of autumn and the god of abundant harvests. This infantry legion dares to use the god's name as its own, signifying that they will be like the autumn wind, blowing enemies down like leaves, or like a sickle, reaping them like grain!

The knights of Deucalion faced immense pressure from Pan. Deucalion was a duchy established less than thirty years ago, while Pan had held the title of Miracaissa's strongest infantry for over three hundred years.

For Deucalion, the current situation is like a promising young man encountering a seasoned and established powerhouse. This feeling is anything but pleasant.

Mounted on his warhorse, Tures gazed into the distance at Pan's camp, and asked his adjutant, Haimir, with a wry smile, "How long until reinforcements arrive?"

“General, Erebus doesn’t have many troops available right now; most are on the border monitoring the Aifa Empire. So only a few troops can arrive. Only Mike’s undead troops and the Yugsotus Cavalry Regiment, which Count Lothric and Viscount Lu Ming have just formed, can arrive tomorrow!”

"Tomorrow?" Upon hearing Haimir's reply, Tures frowned, gazing at Pan's camp in the distance. After a long while, he said, "Send the order down to the knights to prepare. We're going to test whether Pan is really as powerful as the legends say!"

"Yes, General!" Haimir replied, then rode back to his unit, gathered ten thousand heavy cavalry, and prepared to follow Tures to storm Pan's camp.

Of course, this was just a probing attack. After all, no one knew whether this army, which hadn't fought for two or three decades, had been corrupted by the evil cult, whether it was just an empty shell, or whether it was still as terrifyingly strong as it had been two or three decades ago. They had to try to find out!

After the knights mounted their horses, gripped their reins, and arrived before Torres, Torres pointed to the distant Pan camp and shouted to them, "Our enemies are now encamped even in the sparsest forest, ignoring us knights as if we were cowards who dare not charge! But now we will show them that we, Deucalion, will not fear the old fogies of Pan! We will show them the consequences of underestimating us!!"

Having said that, she drew the sharp blade from her waist, pointed it at Pan's camp, and roared, "Charge!!"

Instantly, the ten thousand heavy cavalrymen surged towards Pan's camp like a steel tide.
