How To Be A Demon lord: The Former Hero's Journey As A Demon Lord!

Al squeezed his palms on the floor as she tried his best to stop sweating. The queen doesn\'t believe him! This is bad! She needs to believe him! The commander that came back told him about this and Al knows he is telling the truth because he used magic to check! The queen needs to believe that her kingdom is in danger!

"M-My queen! I do not jest! It is true! Four demons attacked the army at Hampshire and they were erased!"

Doon!!!

A sudden pressure filled the entire room and Al grunted as he felt himself fall to the ground under the pressure! Shit! The queen is angry! I should have just kept my mouth shut!!

This pressure was Pricilla\'s pure mana and it was easily holding the attendant down like he was a toy! Pricilla was no longer laughing. She was now looking at Al with an empty gaze

"Al, it was funny the first time, but any good jester knows when to end the joke. I won\'t tolerate it if you keep this up. Now tell me the truth, who attacked the army? I refuse to believe that four demons attacked and killed an army of a thousand. It is impossible to even imagine it!"

Priscilla simply refused to believe it! There hasn\'t been a single strong demon since the hero killed the demon Queen and drove away all of her generals! And even if the generals were a part of the army that attacked Hampshire, there is no way that only four of them will be able to beat a thousand knights! The attendant tried to talk but he was unable to even move! He was being crushed by the pressure that Priscilla was releasing!

Priscilla finally decided to take mercy on him and allowed him to breathe by reducing her pressure. She then barked at him to tell her exactly what happened! This time, when Al still repeated what he said before, Priscilla found herself sounding him a little less.

There is no way that this attendant will be under this much pressure and he will still be lying! Should I even believe this!? How can a thousand men die to four demons!? To fight that many men you have to be at least SS class! There are no SS class demons!!

Priscilla put her head in her hand and started to think. This could cause some trouble. She didn\'t give a fuck about Hampshire and she didn\'t even care that most of the people there were dead or captured. What she cared about was her reputation. She has been able to lead this kingdom for a long period of peace. If something like this gets out to the public then they will start to doubt her! She can\'t have them doubting her! She has to handle this situation quickly!

There was only one place where demons could come from now and that was the demon castle that was on the western side of the kingdom. Priscilla has been thinking of capturing that castle for a long time, but she always stopped herself for some reason.

Priscilla didn\'t know that the feeling she always had was the fear of the unknown. Pricilla had no idea what she would find in that castle and that unknown scared her from ever going near it. Even when she was with the hero, none of them dared to go near that castle. The place where they fought the demon Queen was a mansion on the northern side of the world. If even the demon queen wasn\'t going to the demon castle then Priscilla didn\'t want to go near it.

But the situation was different now. Priscilla needs to get the public image that she always had back! She needs to change the mind of people about this issue, so they will praise her for capturing the demon castle instead of scorning her for losing Hampshire!

Priscilla didn\'t know that Floid was at the demon\'s castle. She just hoped that she would be able to capture an empty castle and then blast that she fought fiercely for it!

Priscilla looked up and then told her attendant to get off the floor! He was embarrassing her by lying down like that! The attendant felt irritated at her tone! She was the one that did this and she is trying to also blame him! He hated this queen a lot!

"Call the grand commander and tell her to come here immediately. I\'m not going to let something like this go. These demons will not even know what hit them!"

Even if Priscilla was a complete bitch, she was also the same as everyone else in one regard. She hated demons! She hated every single one of them and she wanted them all to be dead and gone from this world! She would make sure that all the demons in both Hampshire and that castle died!

The attendant immediately felt shock pass through him when he heard what his queen said! The grand commander was an SS class knight! Did the queen want to finally take over the western side of the world!? The attendant quickly bowed and left to do as he was told!

...

The grand commander. This was a position that only ten people held in this entire world. They were all SS class knights and they all had their territories that they ruled over. There were five grand commanders in Uta. These five were the strongest knights that the kingdom could produce. There were other people stronger than them, but when it comes down to the title of knight, these five were the best!

The grand commander that was called by the attendant was a woman named Aura. She was a beautiful woman that always wore silver armor that covered her entire body. Her sword was large and almost as long as her body and it always surprised people when they see her carrying it around like it is a toy. The attendant called this woman especially because she is the only grand commander that stayed in the castle all time. She was responsible for carrying out any errant orders that the queen would give and also she was responsible for protecting the queen. It was known to the public that she was chosen for this role through a rigorous process that ended up with her being the winner, but the truth of the matter was that she was chosen to stay trapped in the castle by the other Knights because she was seen as the weakest of the five grand commanders. The grand commanders were assigned to leave one person in the castle at all times and somehow the other four grand commanders picked her without her consent. When she confronted them about it they were shameless enough to tell her that they were allowing her to do it so that she could grow even stronger. Wow, she should be so grateful to them! Yippie~

Aura never forgave them for that particular time and she never would.

But even if she hated them for what they did, Aura could only be happy about what she just heard! The grand commander was given the task of gathering her army and attacking the castle in the western part of the world! Aura was ecstatic! It has been almost fifty years since she became the grand commander and she was the youngest out of all the grand commanders in Uta. She heard from all of them about how they were involved in the subjugation of the demon lord in one way or the other. This is her chance to also have a part in the stories of the demon lord\'s defeat!

Aura always knew that the other grand commanders looked down on her because she was a woman and also one of the weaker commanders. But so what? She is also an SS-class just like them! They have no right to look down on her because of something so small! So Aura accepted this mission with glee! If she is able to subjugate this castle then it is possible that she will also gain prestige in the castle! The other knights won\'t be able to say anything about her anymore because she would have also made her own contribution to clearing this world of the demons! Aura wished that some demons would be there so that she can stain her blade with their blood!

Aura and her army of three thousand set out from the kingdom in less than a day and they immediately made their way towards the castle on the western side of the kingdom!
