Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 176.1

Selection Ceremony 1

“All hands, ready.”

“”””Yes!””””

At one of the dungeon entrances, at the words of Demon Army General Aishe, the warriors under her command all speak in unison and correct their posture as they dug in their heels.

Among the Demon Army, they were the strongest and most aggressive believers in Aishe’s strength and ferocity, and two of their lieutenants were also Rank 4.

“…”

Aishe squints slightly at the warriors who line up seamlessly. Originally, there were supposed to be ten warriors present in the room. However, one of them, Adra, had been killed with a stab between the eyes and his weapon snatched away.

Adra is a Rank 4 user who could use Spirit Magic. Although his combat strength was high because of his high magic value, he should still be able to defeat an ordinary warrior in a melee fight. But still, that woman might be able to kill him, and it would be the “peach blonde” who retrieved the magic steel weapon from Adra’s loot and carried it on her without concealment, as if to provoke them.

Aishe wanted to kill her immediately. However, even before they entered the dungeon, the main battlefield of this [selection ceremony], assassinations of warriors were being carried out behind the scenes, and one of the reduced warriors was killed in a fight with a subordinate of the demon clan leader Charlemagne, who was killed in the form of a draw.

If the troops were dispersed to reduce the strength of the other clans any further, the probability of a counterattack would be high. It would be a different story if they were to use non-warriors like those of other clans as [disposable assassins], but unlike others who were participating as warriors, Aishe, who was participating as an individual, could not use military subordinates who might betray her at any moment.

The Dark Elves were chased by the Holy Church of Humans as [messengers of the Evil God] and arrived at the land where they passed through scorching deserts and extremely cold mountains, which was a harsh land populated by monsters and dragons.

There were few places where people could live, and those who went hunting for food were killed by monsters.

It was then that the Dark Elves began to believe in strength. They called themselves the “Evil Race” out of resentment towards the human race, and they struggled to survive on their hatred. One of the young sisters, who lost their parents in this harsh life, took refuge in a clan of mages who used magic for assassination in order to survive…and grow stronger.

Aishe was still a baby at the time, and her older sister, still a young girl, chose to become an “assassin” as compensation for Aishe’s support in the clan.

The young Aishe was proud of her sister. She was strong and beautiful, and by the time she reached adulthood, she had become a warrior who went to war with the tribe and was feared by the enemy soldiers as a [war demon].

She would fight for her younger sister and return home covered in scars, both physically and emotionally. She learned the art of killing from Elgrim, who was feared as the beast of the battlefield at that time. She never knew any pleasure other than killing, never communicated with anyone except her sister, and knew nothing but fighting.

It seems that at a certain battlefield, she met adventurers of the human race, forest elves, dwarves, and others.

She had crossed swords with them many times on the battlefield, and each time she returned, her expression of sorrow deepened.
