Harem Tales of a Reincarnated Elf Prince

Volume 4 1

Chapter 1 Demon Lord Beatrice

Demon Country Lachmaheim.

This is literally the country where the demons live.

In the middle of the vast wilderness that occupies most of the land, there was a big city out of place. This is the capital of the Country of Demons.

In the center of the town, there is a huge Demon Lord Castle.

On the top floor of the demon lord’s castle, located the boudoir of the Demon Lord.

"Hmmm, today’s report...."

From there, was a woman reading a document while sitting in a luxurious chair.

She had light brown skin with long silver hair.

And a glamorous body wrapped in a stimulating costume.

She is the lord of this demon castle.

The demon Beatrice who is also the queen of Lachmaheim.

“Is there anything odd today?”

The strange thing about this place is that a part of the city was destroyed by the demons’ rampage...... and that’s it.

Basically, the demons have arrogant personality.

Even if they are of the same demon race, they have no cooperation.

Frequent riots happen, destroying their own city.

Because of this, the other races thought about them as inferior race.

And that ideology gave birth to the previous war.

"Are the gathering of demons in good condition?"

Beatrice moved her eyes to the new material. She then smiled ferociously.

Beatrice, who is the current demon queen, of course, didn’t escape this mistreatment.

Moreso, she’s also a survivor of the defeat in the previous war.

And because of this, her hatred of the humans, fairies and elves was stronger than other demons.

"Finally, the time has come"

The documents, which include the construction of a new army of demons, were written there.

Beatrice is willing to start another war again.

In addition, it’s aimed at the whole world as well.

"The gathered demons constituted about 8,000 strong. Quite a feat, I say"

Normally, strong demons are very egoistic, and does not usually take group actions.

To be able to gather 8,000 of them in one group is extraordinary already.

In a sense, I have to express my gratitude towards them"

It is the hatred towards the other species that moved the demons.

And like Beatrice, some of the long-lived demons are survivors of the previous war.

And precisely because they survived, many of them become her subordinates.

The only way for a demon to obey is by the use of force.

They also cannot help but obey those stronger than them.

Such powerful demons responded to Beatrice’s call this time.

By this fact, you can call Beatrice as the strongest of the demons, but the hatred of the other races is also a factor for their subordination.

So to speak, the revenge of the demons is about to begin.

"Our first aim is the Country of Humans. Those guys who are complacent about peace, let’s kill them in an instant"

Humans have a very short life span compared to demons and other races.

At most, a human can only live for over a hundred years.

Naturally, not one of them has experienced the previous war.

And as they change generations, the thought of threat to the demons is diminishing.

“If we did a surprise attack there, they will become our slaves in no time ... kukukuu"

As the reigning ruler of the demons, she turned around.

Towards the strategy that ordinary demons wouldn’t think of.

"First, let’s have Bivnaheim"

Bivnaheim is a country of humans located just across the Lachmaheim country.

"They won’t expect their country to be first to get attacked"

War is a normal think for a country.

If you did not do so, you will not be able to replenish the army you attack with.

If you don’t have enough supplies, they will starve and as a result, you will face defeat, no matter how strong your troops are.

That’s the normal war. However, demons are quite different.

With their physical abilities, it’s possible to reach Bivnaheim before they get hungry.

The forces more mobile than demons on the ground were only fairies, which can fly in the sky.

Even that, the Fairy King will still take the time amassing the fairies to send reinforcements once he knew that Bivnaheim has been attacked.

By that time, the demons will have cleaned up the country as planned.

"And, if we get hungry, we will just take away everything we can take, and those we can’t we will destroy."

Beatrice has no intention of conquering other races.

With the exception of the demons, she’s planning to destroy all of the races in this world.

So she made thorough plans in complete plundering Bivnaheim of all its graces, by a storm.

And the next, she will invade the neighboring countries.

Those in between Lachmaheim and Bivnaheim

She will advance her troops to another human country, Norcheim.

"Over there, unlike the others, their army is strong. We have to be cautious"

Norcheim first received the demonic invasion of the previous war.

As a result the country was completely destroyed.

With this, their grudge with the demons are exceptionally strong.

Unlike Bivnaheim, they are always in full alert.

Challenging them from the front will clearly result in heavy casualties, even though they are demons.

Plus, the difficulty will be even higher if they cooped themselves in their sturdy castles.

The reason for this is because demons have no siege weapons.

"But we excel in overwhelming physical ability, mobility and, and hand-o-hand combat, so we have to make good use of this"

Once Bivnaheim is destroyed, we’ll decide to encircle Norcheim.

If we crush their neighboring country first, the morale of the human soldiers will plummet.

"Even if their castle is tough, it will be pregnable if those the soldiers’ morale became weak"

That was Beatrice’s strategy.

"Once we destroy the Human Countries, the fairies and the elves will be next"

Both are countries with smaller population than humans.

Even if it is the same number, the demons, with their higher battle potentials still has the upper hand.

The key to this war was how quickly we could crush the humans’ main forces.

"Now then, let’s work out the details right away"

She then took out a map.

They then decided the route to send troops where Norcheim would not know.

At that time, there was a knock on the door.

"Demon Queen-sama, can I come in?"

"Yes, you may enter"

Beatrice stopped what she was doing, then greeted with a corresponding demeanor befitting a demon queen.

What came in was a man who has an intelligent look for a demon.

The guy is a staff officer under her.

"And what is your purpose? Speak briefly"

"Actually, we have acquired information about suspicious movements about some elves"

"Some elves, you say?"

Beatrice frowned at the unexpected information.

In her plans, elves should begin to move after Bivnaheim is destroyed.

"Yes. Apparently the prince of their country has been visiting one country after another, and seems that they are trying to form an alliance like the previous war"

"What did you say!? Kuh, those annoying elves......"

Beatrice’s gaze became filled with power, and the space around her shook.

Powerful magic is acting in the area with just her rise of emotions.

The staff officer still continued his report, despite sweating heavily on that pressure.

"It seems that they are exchanging branches of the King Trees in each country as testimony of their alliance"

"the King Trees? Just what are they thinking......"

Beatrice spat out in indignation.

Like other countries, Lachmaheim has also their own King Tree.

However, it has been in a quite awful state, as it hasn’t been maintained for many years.

For demons, the King Tree is no different from an ordinary tree.

"However, it’s not good if they became united once again"

"Yes, and there is a possibility of it interfering with Your Majesty’s plan"

"Then, first of all, collect further details about this"

"As you command, Your Majesty!"

The demon staff then politely bowed and exit the room.

After that, she went to her desk once again.

"Haa!"

She raised her fist, then punched it with excessive force.

The blow from her delicate arm smashed the thick but luxurious desk in one blow.

After her anger finally subsided, she settled to her seat once again.

"You bastard, will you stand up before me once again......?"

Beatrice grimaced, grasping her hand strongly.

And thus, the demon queen began to move to stop the alliance.
