His Royal Highness Bukred, the second prince of Audria, entered one of the human prisoner of war camps with the consent of the commander-in-chief Muru.

The time has come to change the current dire situation, and whether or not we can win the allegiance of these more than 35,000 prisoners of war is the key to everything. Only by successfully subduing these captives will he have enough strength to return to Odria to fight his sister Vitasia for the throne.

Bukred was so confident that he couldn't help but thank the senators of the Holy See in his heart. Thanks to the fact that they had taken almost all of the main soldiers of Adria's elite army, the Holy Maiden and Roxana had to re-recruit soldiers to form a new army. It is undeniable that Roxana is a genius commander, and he trained tens of thousands of troops in only half a year to be no less than those veterans. Even if he loses to the orcs in the end, it is not his fault, but the mysterious power of Baroque and his men is beyond everyone's expectations. But there is one thing that the Holy Maiden and Roxana cannot achieve results in a short period of time............ Soldier's loyalty!

Most of the soldiers were new recruits, and it was impossible to get them to be as strong as veterans at once. Perhaps before the war, the recruits were still determined and would not be shaken by some demagoguery. But when they were defeated by the orcs, became captives, and were terrified of their future, the appearance of Bukred was undoubtedly their last straw.

Human psychology is very strange, when they are in despair, they suddenly see a little light, even if they know that that light is likely to have some cost, but they will always find a thousand reasons to convince themselves, and then it is like self-hypnosis...... Make the most self-serving choice with peace of mind.

Bukred summoned all the thousands of prisoners of war in the camp. Identify yourself to them. Immediately, some soldiers who knew the inside story showed disapproval, and even some of the only remaining veterans were still very disdainful. They knew what Bucred was doing...... To put it bluntly, it's bestiality!

"I know that some of you will call me a bestial in your heart. Surrendered to the orcs for refuge. But I would like to ask you to listen to my explanation before scolding me, and if you agree with me, even if I try to provoke the orc commanders, I will bring you under my command and fight for the glory of the Odria royal family. If you don't agree, then I will also intercede for you and try to get the Odria Empire to redeem you with money. ”

Prisoners of war were in turmoil. Hope was reborn in their already desperate appointments...... Perhaps, there is still salvation. Gradually, everyone fell silent. All look at Bukred and get ready to hear what he has to say!

With a hint of sadness, Bukred began to tell the lie that he had made up for days to remove all the loopholes: "Maybe you all know. Before I took refuge with the orcs. I once fought for a long time with my elder brother, the eldest prince Flonassomi, in the Dulong Imperial Capital. It was rumored that I was fighting my brother Fronnaso for the throne. Therefore, we did not hesitate to cause civil strife in the empire, killing and wounding countless people, and the two of us are guilty of a heinous and unforgivable crime!"

"But I'm going to tell you the truth. I do want to have more power, but before that I'm a prince first. Fronnaso viciously murdered my father, His Majesty Emperor Anthony. At that moment, even though I knew that a war with Fronnaso would have the worst consequences, I did not hesitate to declare war on him. In the end, we both lost each other. And my sister, Princess Vitasia, stood up at this time and, with the support of the Holy See Lady Evangeline, killed Fronazus, and I was forced to flee. That's all you know, but it's just appearances. Have you ever wondered why I could easily escape while the Grand Prince Fronazus could be easily captured and killed? Why did our sister Vitasia submit to her when my sister Vitasia only came forward to reveal her identity? Why did Vitasia become the Empress, but the army formed by the Empire was commanded by Roxana? Don't tell me that you don't know that Roxana has defected to the Holy See and is loyal to the Holy Maiden Evangeline. And don't tell me that you forgot that most of the Empire's most elite legionnaires were taken away by the Holy See, and that you were just newly recruited. What is going on with all this? The Holy See of the Apocalypse is so high, they never care about the affairs of the mundane realm, why are they so recklessly interfering in the internal affairs of our Odria?"

Even the stupidest soldier was moved by Bukred's words and began to think about this question! Yes, the Holy See is high, and it is said that it never interferes in the affairs of ordinary countries, why is it that the Holy Maiden Evangeline is stationed in Emperor Dulong and does not leave, and she also wantonly recruits the imperial army. Even their entry into the steppe to fight the orcs was not an order from the Adrian court, but an order from the Holy See. What's wrong with that?

Bukred knew that his words had worked, but he knew very well in his heart that these words were like nonsense, just some foreshadowing, and the next thing was the most important. And the soldier in front of him was just actively hypnotized by Bukred, seeking a suitable reason to make a rational choice for his life.

"I was plagued by these doubts, but fortunately there were many loyal people in the empire who lurked for me, and I finally found out the truth. It turns out that everything that is turbulent in our Odria is a conspiracy of the Holy Maiden Evangeline!"

Never before in history had anyone dared to make such blatant accusations against the high-ranking members of the Apocalypse Holy See, and Bukred's words shocked everyone. There was silence, save for Buckred's excited yelling.

"I beg the God of Light to forgive me, but I still have to say that everything that happened in the Odria Empire was the conspiracy of the Holy Maiden Evangeline......! Secretly provoked Fronnaso's ambition and made my brother commit the evil act of killing his father. Then we had our brothers kill each other, and when we were so wounded, she took control of our sister Princess Vitasia as a puppet and came forward to accuse us of our crimes. Take control of the situation quickly, and immediately kill Fronnaso and destroy the corpse, so that no one knows about her plot. I was the only one who was the victim of Evangeline's plan, and she didn't expect me to defect to the orcs. But that doesn't matter, because in the end Evangeline secretly controls our empire, and she can finally do whatever she wants. The Empire's most elite soldiers were drawn to reduce the strength of the Adria army............ Even if those main elites were still there, the battle with the orcs might not have been so miserable. ”

This was echoed by all the POWs, because they loved to hear it. Of course, the surrounding orcs were not happy, and glared at Bucred one by one, hating to eat it. Mu Lu and a few others who were eavesdropping outside smiled and didn't care............ The Baroque has allowed Bucred to say something slightly excessive, and everything is under control!

"Listen, Odria warriors, we are caught up in a conspiracy! What does Evangeline want to do with our empire in control and weakening us?...... I don't know what other countries will think or do, but I will tell you―――――― as the royal family of Audria, and I will never allow my country to become a tool of certain forces, and I will never allow our people to be harmed by the conspiracy of certain forces. Our dedication of faith and devotion to the Holy See does not mean that we also have to sacrifice our freedom and our lives. ”

Luckred's words finally stirred up the emotions of the prisoners of war, and they became agitated. Maybe some people are pretending...... After all, smart people are already able to perceive Buckred's purpose. Whatever he is, as long as he can escape from the tiger's jaws of the orcs, it will be the same whether he will be loyal to the Holy Maiden or to the Prince of Boukred.

"I need you to follow me, let's go to Audria, to the royal capital of Duron, and ask the Holy Maiden Evangeline face to face...... What the hell does the Holy See want to do!" Boukred shouted with a wave of his hands!

Immediately someone fell to his knees at Brookred's feet and swore an oath to follow. Then those who were slower to react either knelt down or were dragged to their knees by their companions. -- Idiot, didn't you see that the orcs were indifferent to Bukred's words? It must be that the second prince wanted to take in the prisoners of war, and got the approval of the orcs. There is such a good opportunity to live in front of you, if you miss it, you will see the hell. Aren't they all the same as to whom they are allegiant?

Bucred was pleased with his speech, looking at the prisoners on their knees, and feeling extremely confident about what was going to come. ............

Sure enough, Bukred then traveled through all the POW camps, and most of them, with the exception of a few tendonous ones (who mysteriously disappeared and never reappeared), chose to surrender to him. Muru also followed Baroque's instructions and gave all the prisoners of war to Bukred.

Brocade immediately scattered his 1,000 guards into 35,000 prisoners of war, took command, and formed a new legion.

And a few days later, the order of the Baroque also arrived. Muru began to mobilize his army, and waited until the many orc wise men sent by the Grand Chief of Ortu in the rear who were ready to receive [Shoton City] marched towards the territory of the Adria Empire together.

Leading the way was Bukred's army of human minions. Muru trusted them enough to even distribute weapons to them. Of course, those who can live are sane and intelligent guys. Since they were not orcs when they were at their strongest, the 30,000 remnants of the defeated soldiers under their command didn't even want to turn any hell thoughts.

A few days later, the army arrived in Shoton. The orcs were cheering, because this was their first time conquering a human city!, and before Buclay's men could grieve, because Bucred received an invitation from the Baroque from the front, he immediately led the army of servants to continue their march towards the interior of Odria!

What they saw along the way shocked them, and even the slightest bit of caution was completely wiped out! -- Countless villages and towns were burned to the ground, and the ground was full of hungry mayflies and bones! Those orcs were all demons! )
