How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 385 : Before the Great War

Under the shroud of the blood moon, the Blood Capital remained as sinister as ever today.

News of the Holy Kingdom's liberation of more than half its territory within re days had reached the Blood Capital nearly a month ago, and after lengthy mobilization and troop deploynt, the Blood Clan had finally prepared everything needed for war today...

"Your Majesty... please... please don't go... Those Blood Clan higher-ups wish they could devour you... To them, we've long lost our usefulness... They'll definitely send us to the battlefield as cannon fodder..."

In an extrely dilapidated house, Seraya, looking utterly haggard, tearfully embraced Evelyn tightly and continued pleading miserably:

"Please... don't go... leave this place with ..."

"We won't go to the Holy Kingdom, nor stay in Blood Clan territory... Let's go to the Iron Empire or Elasia... to live out our lives in peace... Please... don't go..."

"Get away!"

Evelyn shook her arm forcefully, pushing Seraya to the ground.

"I am Evelyn, Queen of the Holy Kingdom, and I should place the interests of the Holy Kingdom's people above my personal interests!"

"Only by maintaining good relations with the Blood Clan can our Holy Kingdom be safe!"

"For this goal, even if I, Evelyn, am shattered to pieces, even if I bear the Holy Kingdom people's curses for countless years, I'm willing!"

With that, she paid no more attention to Seraya and walked alone toward the Blood Palace.

She knew that today's final assembly against Northern Fire and the Holy Kingdom was being held there, and she had to prove her worth before the Blood Clan...

Watching Evelyn walk resolutely toward the Blood Palace, Seraya could only grit her teeth and follow.

...

"My Lord! How can you still be so obstinate!"

A Blood Clan mber in blood-red robes, holding a staff, angrily stomped the ground.

"Humans are completely untrustworthy! How can you still think of using that woman!"

"Besides serving so purpose for us on the battlefield, she's now utterly useless!"

"Your previous 'ruling humans through humans' strategy has already failed! There's no other way!"

"We must execute these two damned won now! Not killing them isn't enough to appease the people's anger! Not killing them isn't enough to correct the court's discipline..."

The old Blood Clan's angry voice echoed through the hall, lasting long...

But the female Blood Clan mber in royal robes sitting on the throne completely ignored him, only looking at the book in her hands.

No one knew what she was reading, but everyone knew—the King could not do aningless things.

If any Blood Clan mber bold enough ca over, they would discover—she was actually reading human knight novels.

Looking at the plot, she fell into deep contemplation...

Why would human 'knights' die for a 'lord' they had never even t...

Even if this 'lord' was an incompetent and tyrannical ruler, human knights would still be loyal to him...

Why exactly...

If she didn't possess the most powerful strength among all Blood Clan, perhaps her subordinates would have replaced her long ago...

The weak obeying the strong's commands—wasn't this natural law?

"Report! My Lord! Evelyn requests an audience!"

"Mm, let her co up."

The Blood Demon Lord rely replied faintly, not even putting down her book.

"Good! Not only does she not flee, but she even dares co to our Blood Clan's military stronghold... How audacious!"

The old Blood Clan mber imdiately beca furious upon hearing this news.

It knelt before the Blood Demon Lord with a "thud" and shouted:

"This minister requests My Lord execute Evelyn and Seraya!"

As its voice fell, all Blood Clan mbers in the palace simultaneously cried out:

"This minister requests My Lord execute Evelyn and Seraya!"

"This minister requests My Lord execute Evelyn and Seraya!"

"This minister requests My Lord execute Evelyn and Seraya..."

...

"Please... Your Majesty... let's leave..."

Hearing the cries from far outside the palace, Seraya once again pleaded miserably with Evelyn, but Evelyn continued walking up the steps with an unchanged expression...

"How bold! You really have guts!"

A Blood Clan mber, seeing Evelyn still walking toward the platform, directly drew the sword from its hand and thrust it at her.

Seeing the Blood Clan mber attacking her, Evelyn didn't even attempt to defend herself.

"Clang!"

Just as the sword was about to pierce her, Seraya beside her reacted.

Drawing sword, swinging sword, all in one fluid motion.

She used such force that she directly knocked the Blood Clan mber's sword flying.

However... Seraya, who had saved Evelyn's life, didn't receive Evelyn's gratitude.

What she received... was a slap from Evelyn.

"Slap!"

"Didn't I tell you? The Blood Clan are our masters, we cannot resist!"

"I'm sorry..."

Knowing explanations were useless, Seraya sheathed her sword with tears in her eyes.

Soon, they entered the hall under the angry gazes of surrounding Blood Clan mbers.

"My Lord..."

"Mm, skip the formalities, we don't like those human things."

The Blood Demon Lord waved her hand, signaling Evelyn to stop speaking.

She put away the novel and said to the angry old Blood Clan mber below:

"Victor, I have already decided."

"Besides the army currently marching south, I also plan to reorganize those Holy Court soldiers who previously fled to Blood Clan territory and have them assist you in battle."

"What?"

Victor flew into a rage:

"My Lord! Even with our substantial resource support, they were beaten to a pulp by bandits using the most basic weapons... Do we really need such an army?!"

"With all due respect..."

"Mr. Victor... things aren't as you say..."

Seeing Evelyn remain silent, Seraya quickly explained:

"It's like this... the bandits received massive support from the Elasians, who even sent them Magic Crossbows and armies... We..."

"Excuses!"

The old Blood Clan interrupted Seraya and walked toward her step by step.

"Elasians? Could the Elasians' help to Northern Fire possibly be half as great as our aid to you? Ah!"

Walking before Seraya, it directly grabbed her throat.

"Speak! Woman!"

"Ugh... let go..."

Seraya initially tried to break free, but seeing Evelyn kneeling with her head bowed to the Blood Demon Lord beside her, she ultimately chose to submit.

Ti passed bit by bit...

"Alright... if you continue like this, she'll be strangled to death by you..."

Seeing the blood color gradually disappearing from Seraya's pretty face, the Blood Demon Lord used a mocking tone to temporarily stop Victor's violence.

"Cough... cough cough cough..."

Released, Seraya fell heavily to the ground, while Evelyn didn't even glance at her, only saying to the Blood Demon Lord:

"My Lord... please issue commands to this guilty minister."
