As the three executives joined the battlefield, in Natalie’s room, her dangerous game with Emily continued.
Of course, Emily had already lost three games in a row!
After all, before her transmigration, Emily was just an ordinary person.
After coming to this world, she spent every day in the church as the Saintess, which meant Emily was simply not good at chess!
And because it was a chess game from another world, Emily had only just learned the rules.
How could she possibly win against Natalie, who had been playing since childhood?
But Emily was improving bit by bit, increasing the time she could drag out each game.
Moreover, Emily played every move very slowly.
After all, every extra second dragged out meant one more human survivor!
So every time, Emily waited until the very last second, almost committing a foul, before making her move!
Of course, despite having lost three games, if you looked at Emily now, she hadn’t actually taken off a single piece of clothing.
After all, Emily had used her two shoes plus her black stockings to get through the three losses.
However, if she lost the next time…
“Checkmate!”
Amid Emily’s anxiety, that decisive Demon King piece was still captured by Natalie.
After taking the piece, Natalie just looked at Emily, eagerly anticipating which piece of clothing she would take off.
Whether it was her top or her skirt, Natalie herself would get quite an eyeful.
Even though she had seen it several times before, in this atmosphere, it gave Natalie a different kind of excitement than bathing together!
“…”
Under Natalie’s expectant gaze, Emily silently stood up.
“Oh, going to take off the skirt? Indeed, if blocked by the table, I won’t be able to stare at you the whole time.”
Just as Natalie thought Emily was going to take off her skirt, Emily silently reached her hand under her skirt and took off the garment inside.
After taking it off, the blushing Emily immediately sat back down.
Though she was now in a state of au naturel, because the skirt covered it, Natalie couldn’t see.
“…Going commando? I never expected you, Emily, as a Saintess, to be so savvy!”
Although she didn’t get the eyeful she wanted, the thought that the person she loved was now sitting au naturel right in front of her made Natalie inexplicably excited.
“Um… can we continue now?”
Enduring the shame, Emily urged her like this.
After all, Emily really didn’t want Natalie to keep talking about the au naturel state.
But what responded to Emily wasn’t Natalie’s words, but her outstretched hand.
“Lady Natalie, what are you…”
Looking at Natalie’s outstretched hand, Emily naturally didn’t understand what she wanted.
“Give it to me?”
“No!”
Realizing Natalie was asking her for something, Emily’s face flushed red all the way to her ears.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem? The clothes you take off, of course, belong to the winner! If you wanted to collect my clothes, I wouldn’t have any objections either! So you must give me the ‘holy relic’ you just took off!”
“…”
Faced with Natalie’s outrageous statement, Emily truly felt that Natalie was a bit scary.
But in the end, she could only obediently hand over the white garment she had just taken off.
After receiving the garment still carrying Emily’s body heat, Natalie directly stuffed it into her own pocket.
As for how Natalie would use that piece of clothing, Emily really didn’t dare to think about it or ask.
“Then let’s continue.”
Faced with Natalie’s somewhat frightening smile, Emily truly cursed in her heart those reckless fools who started this war!
If not for those who recklessly started the war, she wouldn’t have ended up in this situation!

While Emily was complaining, the Marshal, the chief culprit, was using magic to watch the three executives fighting unopposed not far away!
The empire’s ordinary soldiers were really no different from insects in front of the three executives, almost instantly killed!
“Damn it, are those three demons monsters?!”
After all, ever since the three executives joined the battle, the advantage the humans had gained completely vanished, turning into a one-sided slaughter.
From here on, even if the imperial army could repel the three executives, they would surely suffer heavy losses.
The Marshal regretted his mistake.
He had reserved high-level combat forces only to deal with the Demon King and the wyvern troops, completely failing to consider the situation with the Demon King’s executives.
In the previous battle, Hadia alone had held back two executives.
This meant the executives hadn’t killed a single imperial soldier.
So the Marshal subconsciously thought that the Demon King’s executives, who could be easily held back by Hadia, weren’t much to worry about, and thus didn’t reserve troops to handle them.
But now, the combat power displayed by the Demon King’s executives completely shattered the Marshal’s assumptions.
Holding this thought, the Marshal also looked at the hero Hadia beside him.
The Marshal understood that if Hadia took action, she could definitely suppress these three Demon King executives, but the hero really needed to be kept in reserve to deal with the Demon King.
Moreover, the Marshal also worried that once Hadia left his side, the Demon King would directly target him.
After all, in the Marshal’s own view, he was the commander-in-chief of over a hundred thousand imperial troops!
He was absolutely the most important person among everyone!
So the Demon King would definitely target him!
This narcissism and arrogance made him truly afraid to let Hadia leave his side.
Although in reality, Natalie didn’t even know of his existence.
Natalie wouldn’t bother investigating an insignificant human commander for no reason.
Of course, the Marshal himself was completely unaware that Natalie didn’t give him a second thought.
He only knew that if he didn’t send someone to deal with the three executives now, it would be dangerous.
In the end, the Marshal looked at the elite fighters behind Hadia.
Originally, they were reserved to fight alongside Hadia against the Demon King!
But in this situation, he had no choice but to send them to handle the three executives first.
With this thought, the Marshal directly ordered those elite fighters to go and forcibly deal with the three executives.
He told them to eliminate the three executives as quickly as possible and then immediately regroup!
If they acted fast enough, it wouldn’t affect his plan!
Hearing the order, the elite fighters, though reluctant, could only head to the front lines.
Unlike the Marshal, who only knew theory from books.
These elites could see that the Demon King’s executives were not existences they could easily defeat.
Even if several of them fought one, it would be hard to achieve a quick victory.
But no matter how dissatisfied they were, because it was the Marshal’s order, they could only obediently go.
After all the elites had left, the Marshal looked at Hadia and said, “I truly apologize, Hero. But rest assured, they will definitely deal with those Demon King women very quickly! You need not worry about having to face that Demon King alone!”
In response to the Marshal’s words, Hadia answered with silence.
Hadia truly had no interest in engaging in any conversation with the Marshal, a war criminal who dragged over a hundred thousand people into battle for his own selfish desires.
