Here be chapter.

Sorry, 2 pages are missing. Will fix that in a few minutes.
Edit: Fixed.

"Even so, isn't that a bit annoying?"

Noble manners are annoying. Part of why they're there is just to be difficult and distinguish them from commoners.

Claudia's a wee bit aggressive.

Trying to rule with fear is a bad idea.

Even managed to scare the Reaper herself. Good thing they have at least one moral person among them.

She reminds me of the lady in the pharmacy manga.

That commander looks like he's the pinnacle of competence and morality.

"Do you think we can safely assume he's our enemy?"

We can safely assume he's soon dead.

 

[Lightbrand]

Ah yes I'll kill the reaper.

 

[Elhao]

How nice of Erhart to volunteer for the show Ashton had planned.

 

[isoycrazy]

Olivia has a mother-figure. How lovely.

Glad Olivia got a chance to instill fear with her sword skills after all.

I figured he was scum by design. Being a traitor was interesting, for all of his 1 minute gloating. Thank goodness he's an evil man, while Olivia is a good woman. They fit the words of the Maestro Terry Pratchett so well,

"If you have to look along the shaft of an arrow from the wrong end, if a man has you entirely at his mercy, then hope like hell that man is an evil man. Because the evil like power, power over people, and they want to see you in fear. They want you to know you're going to die. So they'll talk. They'll gloat. They'll watch you squirm. They'll put off the moment of murder like another man will put off a good cigar. So hope like hell your captor is an evil man. A good man will kill you with hardly a word."

 

[Sakidornis]

Well, I guess Ashton unexpectedly got his “showing off plan” done anyway…

Random soldier: Yeah! Fuck the kingdom! Who the hell they think they are basically telling us to-

Head rolls by

Random soldier: Yeah! Fuck that guy! Who the hell he thinks he is basically telling us to betray the kingdom!?

 

[ciera]

Thanks for the release

 

[TiaoAK47]

Damn, your quality improvement rate is insane. This is great quality and much appreciated.

 

[unnamederror]

a commander declaring war right in the face of the enemies, and on top of that, right in the front of the infamous grim reaper, nice idea indeed

 

[Pyras]

Shame they didn't gather the provisional army there to watch the scene as well ...
Would have splattered 2 birds with 1 head chop.

 

[damadicius]

She waited for the cutscene 😭

 

[blablablub]

And that my friends is why you don't talk on the battlefield. Your head starts flying before you even realize the fight's already started.
Also, Ashton's plan DID work. Claudia should give him some slack.

 

[Zet1502]

She waited for the cutscene 😭

It was a f-ing unskippable scene

 

[blablablah]

POV: You're playing New Game+ with a 100% save file and get to the first boss.

 

[anuanuanu]

We need more Olivias here in the modern real world. All action no BS.

Discworld books are full of great quotes. nice to see that showing up and it does fit very well to that evil idiot.

Sure he is an evil noble and he OUGHT to have heard how DANGEROUS Oliva is. she got a dark nickname to boot. but it doesnt make him slightly nervous?
he trusted that they would FEAR him instead? Hah what a joke.
