Chapter 453 Stepping onto the chessboard
In the Demon King’s calendar, it’s the end of February 649.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the city opens.
Viola stood on the watchtower of the castle, looking west with a telescope.
This is the highest place in the entire open city, but we can't see the position of the army that the scout said. We can only vaguely see a puff of smoke appearing on the horizon.
This also shows that the size of the army is definitely not small.
Viola got the news after morning prayers today. Although she seemed very calm on the surface, veins had broken out on the back of her hand holding the window sill of the watchtower.
This day has finally come.
Viola is different from Yang Yiyi. The latter will get into trouble because of some troubles, but Viola will move forward on her own path.
In fact, Viola would also be confused. Before she decided to counterattack, she even thought that it would be good to live her whole life in Leon's territory.
But her confusion only lasted for a moment, and was soon replaced by firm determination.
She knew that although others called her a princess, Viola was no longer a princess. She was burdened with too many things, which were far beyond what a princess could bear.
"Your Highness, your troops have been mobilized and are expected to be assembled in one hour."
Zola walked up to the watchtower and stood loyally behind Viola.
"Did the scouts send back any more news?"
"Not yet, but it is estimated that the army from the Tandron Demon Kingdom will come."
The Demon Kingdom of Tandelon has never appeared since the navy's attack on Leon's territory was thwarted, but the navy's setback does not mean that the army will also be set back.
When the navy was huddled in the port, the army was in full force in the Demon Kingdom of Avarus. During the few months when Viola was dormant in the territory of Leon, preparing for a counterattack, they successively defeated two of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus. The territory of the great nobles is also the closest to the open city.
That's why I said that this troop should be the first to arrive.
But speaking of recent times, the Demon Kingdom of Subia is the closest, but they were frightened and there has been no movement. And if it is the Demon Kingdom of Subia, it should come from the south, not the east.
Moreover, Viola was certain that the armies of the other two demon kingdoms were also on the way, and it was only a matter of time before they reached the open city.
The opponent's army far exceeds ours in number, and there is even a gap of more than ten times in size. Even if the defense of Open City is trustworthy, this will be a difficult battle.
But on the other hand, if the enemy army can be defeated here, the restoration of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus is just around the corner!
Viola put down the telescope and closed her eyes slightly. When she opened her eyes again, the remaining confusion and uneasiness in her eyes had disappeared.
"May your Majesty bless us, and may victory be on our side."

At the same time, far away in the Demon Kingdom of Oswaya.
As an ally of the Demon Kingdom of Avarus, the Demon Kingdom of Oswaya has always maintained a puzzling calmness during the period when the Demon Kingdom of Avarus was invaded.
He neither condemned the undeclared war by the four-nation coalition, nor took advantage of the emptiness in the four countries to launch sneak attacks. He seemed to be a simple spectator, watching the development of the situation.
But this puzzling calmness will end today.
Sharon Oswaya, the Demon King of the Demon Kingdom of Oswaya and currently the only female Demon King, is sitting on the throne, looking anxious, as if she is waiting for something.
Sharon is a mediocre demon king. Whether compared with the demon kings in history or other countries, Sharon is inferior to the above, and she is also a demon king with little sense of existence. Even the residents of the Oswea Demon Kingdom have Some of them don’t know that she is the devil in their country.
But regardless of whether they are moderate or not, regardless of gender, all the demon kings in the Oswea Demon Kingdom have one wish.
That is to take back the land that was taken away by the Tandelon Demon Kingdom.
This has become a worry for the royal family of the Demonic Kingdom of Oswea.
The Demon Kingdom of Avarus was invaded, and the Demon Kingdom of Oswaya's lack of any response was a violation of the covenant.
But now, what she wants to violate is not just as simple as the covenant.
In other words, at this most critical moment, Sharon was actually still hesitating. She was not decisive in character, and she was never really able to make up her mind. "Your Majesty, the army has been assembled and can set off at any time."
Upon hearing the news, Sharon's frown relaxed slightly.
She knelt down on one knee and asked the general she trusted most:
"Are you sure again?"
"Your Majesty, you have asked me more than ten times, and you have confirmed the return of the Demon King God."
The Demonic Kingdom of Oswaya is not a war-friendly country. The residents of this country generally prefer art to war.
But now that she was preparing to start a war, Sharon still couldn't make up her mind.
"Your Majesty, it's okay for you to hesitate, but you only have this chance."
These words completely made Sharon determined.
Yes, you only have one chance, if you miss it, you will never get it again.
Sharon stood up from the throne and ordered: "In the name of the 11th generation Demon King of the Demon Kingdom of Oswea, I order the entire army to march out and take back the land of our ancestors!"
"As you command, my lord."
From this moment on, the Demonic Kingdom of Oswaya, which had stayed away from the incident, finally stepped onto the chessboard.

At the same time, the demon kingdom of Lakshurya.
The young demon king looked at the map spread on the table, while his most trusted prime minister looked at his king, seeing his face becoming more and more distorted and excited, and the corners of his mouth were like melted butter, cracking in a ferocious arc. .
The prime minister knew that his immediate boss was currently in a state of extreme excitement, and his extreme excitement made it difficult for him to control himself.
"The army of the Tandelon Demon Kingdom should be approaching the open city now."
The prime minister picked up a black chess piece and placed it on the map. This move seemed to make the devil even more excited.
"Where are our troops?"
"Arrived in about three days."
"Very good, great!"
"But Your Majesty, Subia Demon Kingdom..."
"They didn't send troops."
"Well, I heard that the Demon Kingdom of Tandelon sent envoys several times, but they didn't even see the Demon King's face."
The young Demon King was playing with the chess pieces on the map. He sneered when he heard this: "The old guy should have gone down a long time ago. He doesn't have any courage."
"But if the Demonic Kingdom of Subia retains its strength, will it..."
"It doesn't matter."
The devil placed the chess pieces on the map and repeated:
"It doesn't matter, no matter what Subia Demon Kingdom plans to do, it doesn't matter. The only thing in front of them is to run over or block it. Otherwise, they can only tremble."
This demon king doesn't care about friendly forces, or even his own army and country. What he wants is interest.
Satisfy his interests.
At this time, on the map, the white chess pieces representing the army of the Demon Kingdom of Lakshuria are scattered in addition to the black chess pieces representing the army of the Demon Kingdom of Tandelon. At first glance, there is nothing wrong.
But if you look carefully, you will find that Lakshurya's army seems to have opened a big bag...
