Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 176.2
What Aishe felt was anger rather than sadness. At first, it might have been sadness. But with the tears that flowed, that feeling twisted and turned into hatred for the human nations.
She hated the human race for killing her sister. However, Aishe began to hate the weakness of her sister who was killed by the humans, as if to twist her grief over the loss of her sister.
Today, Demon Nation was shaken. The Demon Lord, who had lost the woman he loved and had lost the will to live, was on the verge of death, and the belligerent clans took advantage of this opportunity to mobilize their armies.
Aishe spearheaded this movement to start a war against the human nations. It was difficult to stop an army once it had been set in motion. But even so, Aishe knew that the moderate clans who followed the current Demon Lord would intervene.
That was why they attacked the town of Cutlass. The reason was that they could find the [Demon King’s son] who would be the key to start the [Selection Ceremony] that would decide the new king.
The Prince, who fled the Demon Kingdom for fear of assassination, would have no place to live without the town of Cutlass. Once the prince realized that they would destroy every place he could find, he would be unable to hide himself any longer.
It was the desire of Aishe and the other warlords to have the prince participate in the [Selection Ceremony] and start an all-out war against the humans by establishing a new Demon King.
As a general, Aishe led her army to defeat a human city, and thus gained the right to participate in the [Selection Ceremony].
However, even if they were also loyal to the warring factions, the demon clan chief Charlemagne and the great demon clan chief Doehill would put their own interests first, rather than war. That was why they planned to join hands with Elgrim, an Elder of the Demon Clan, who was in favor of opening the war, and to start another Demon war of revenge by having either Elgrim or Aishe become the Demon Lord themselves.
(–But more importantly, that woman.)
Although Aishe was able to win the battle just in time, Aishe herself knew well the power of the peach blonde woman.
How did she acquire such power despite being a human?
How did she know about the [War Demon] technique that her sister learned from Elgrim and sublimated in her own way? Not only that, Aishe could not overlook the woman who had killed her long-time lieutenant.
“First, that peach blonde woman. Let’s find her and the prince!”

“Uryaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Jesha brandished her two-handed axe of magic steel and cracked the head of the demon wolf that lunged at her head-on. The demon wolf was blown across the aisle without even a moment to spurt blood, and a crossbow arrow fired by the cloaked girl pierced the neck of the demon wolf that had leapt at her as if to weave between the two.
“Ha!!!”
Kadori jumped in and used his spear to cut off the demon wolf’s head, and Camille, a dark-skinned boy who jumped down from a high place, attacked the several demon wolves that were frightened by it, swinging two daggers at them.
“–[Dancing Ripper]–“
The magic sword that sealed the Level 5 Combat Skill glowed faintly, and the flashing blade that blew like a storm cut through the four demon wolves in the blink of an eye.
“Phew…”
“Young master, are you hurt?”
