Chapter 35
Furthermore, he did not even know what a Golden Bull, the main subject of this event, was . His usual opinion was that such details were for his aides to deal with, rather than himself .
Although Pajemut has always emphasized concept of ambush and betrayal and was being highly regarded by Valer due to his brain power, he really didn’t deserve such a regard . All the important plans were devised by his aides, after all .
He was a man who would be just satisfied by parading his power and death spell without much reserve at the most decisive times . In fact, refusing to fight when there was no ambush or betrayal was just like being cowardly stubborn .
“Your highness, Golden Bull implies… . . ”
Pajemut has finally understood what Golden Bull was from his aide’s explanation .
“S*** . Damn it . Why seek it from me?”
“Hm… According to their message, that item is in your possession, my lord . ”
“That piece of paper that I didn’t even realize existed, just a moment ago?”
Pajemut was in a fit of resentment and his heart was about to blow up . It was reassuring to him that his opinion that Roelin was a b**** was absolutely proper . It was the first time that he was faced with such an incredulous situation like this, in his entire life .
“Would it be that she is just provoking you? Your highness has recently conquered the southwest of the empire with flying colors . It’s certain that Roelin must be coveting it . It appears that she wants you to share the prize . As she is about to make a move in such conditions, it must be that she has been patiently waiting for such an opportune time . ”
“S***! That f****** b****!”
At last, Pajemut sat on his throne grabbing the back of his neck . Then his subjects swarmed towards him, shouting your highness! Your highness! He rejected every one of them and screamed with a charged look on his face .
“Alright! I have been patient as long as possible . We will enforce our ally camps at Roselant and its borders! I shall mobilize 10,000 soldiers!”
Surprised at this proclamation, Wallenstein, who was listening quietly, interjected .
“My lord! If you do that, there will be a big hole in defending the southwest part of the empire . It is difficult even now, but with 10,000 men!”
Wallenstein has been losing sleep at night recently . He has been very concerned about someone attacking the southwest of the empire, taking advantage of the weakened defense in that area . Fortunately, his empty bravado has been working, but there was no guarantee that someone, who will see through it, won’t appear . However, Pajemut rejected Wallenstein’s opinion at once .
“Southwest? Hahaha! What can a mere human do that make you worry! Wallenstein! You are a small man!”
“That isn’t the problem! Your highness!”
“Quiet! You talk too much since long ago, just do as I say! Why are you always so opinionated every time?!”
“… . My apologies, my lord . ”
“We have enough defensive forces even if that crazy woman of that Sisterhood Society crosses the Rhine River . The human feudal lords are no problem at all, either . No need to be too concerned since every one of them can be obliterated at once . They are all trembling with fears since the last battle at Harfheim, so no need to worry too much about it . What is important right now is none other than that prostitute who walks around, spraying rose scent!”
Wallenstein felt the situation to be moving in a stranger direction . And he felt the confirmation of what he has been thinking inside to be coming true .
“There is someone . Someone, who we do not know!”
Even the usually confident Wallenstein was having fears, at this time .
Having received the Golden Bull from Philip’s minions, we returned to Vitenbaire . And there was a great big party . There were writings on the wall with the following message .

The vampires and I were in pouring and drinking party mode .
“Master . Congratulations . With this, you have come one step closer to your great plan . ”
“Thank you . Phaffenheim . ”
Phaffenheim was in Heidelbert, but he came down to Vitenbaire after having received a message through a crystal ball, while en route to returning .
Since the Golden Bull has been obtained, the area right here, where the devil king Pajemut’s forces were, became more critical . At present time, the highest priority was the devil king Pajemut’s military camp .
“Pay special attention . Phaffenheim . I feel the power of one great strike . ”
“Will fight to the death, my lord . ”
Phaffenheim was one of the greatest talents in the empire . He can be entrusted . And the result of that trust came within the next three days . Phaffenheim came to report something while getting ready to go meet Margareta .
“My lord, something unusual thing happened at the Pajemut’s camp recently . ”
“What is it?”
“Nearly 10,000 soldiers are preparing to mobilize . ”

“What?”
“Here is the newly updated camp layout . It is not complete, but it should give a fairly good representation . ”
I shook my head as I looked at the devil king’s camp layout .
“Huh… it gets stranger the more I look at it? This is a layout that is totally unstable, militarily . Could it perhaps be a high level trap?”
As such, the current camp layout showed many weaknesses everywhere . If I had 10,000 forces, it seemed that I could just cross the Rhine River, and deliver a devastating strike .
Although it would not be possible to drive out the southwest devil king’s entire forces, I was quite confident that I could overtake one city and hold the fort . If that could be done, Pajemut would be in big trouble .
“I have never wanted military forces as I do at this moment . ”
“I, too, feel the same, my lord . ”
“Why is Pajemut mobilizing 10,000 troops . ”
“I’m sorry my lord . I have not been able to find that out yet . ”
I regurgitated my previous plays . But nothing was enlightening .
“Hmmm… . . ”

“Krrrm… . . ”
The gods of war were completely lost in studying the map . The question was, why the devil king was continuing to dig holes, like this . Then I arrived at a conclusion .
“Has driving a wedge between Pajemut and Roelin led to this level of achievement?”
However, Phaffenheim was pessimistic .
“No, would they be that dumb-headed? After all, they are devil kings . ”
“…Yeah, I suppose?”
“Of course . If the friction with Roelin worsens, it would be wise to just forego part of the southwest, and give it to her . That is because by mobilizing the forces this way, it is possible to lose everything . ”
I could only nod my head at the obvious opinion . I have been thinking too conveniently . After all, he was the devil king, the 12th in the line of power, he couldn’t be that stupid .
Thinking back on the past battles, Pajemut has always employed crafty schemes as a brainy devil king . I fear, certainly the reputation of blood and death devil king was not in vain .
“Is this the devil king? There must be some deep-thought out plan, but cannot figure it out as if it is hidden behind a thick fog . ”
“Yes, you’re right . The entity, the devil king must truly be feared . ”
All of a sudden, a bad ending from the past came to mind . There was no way that I wanted to repeat that . Having felt the fear from Pajemut, the feeling of indolence, from having obtained the Golden Bull, has been completely lost .
I was about to drive out Pajemut from the empire’s southwest, and attack Pfalz to Friedrich . It certainly was not an easy task .
Let me squeeze it tightly . I must force myself to the limit . I made up my mind with unshakeable determination .
