How To Get Revenge On My Sister Who Stole My Husband (16 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 117

“That’s right. I will place a large gate with magic between here and my mansion in the capital.”

“But to surprise attack the capital, we would need at least several thousand knights and soldiers. To create a gate capable of moving that many people at once, even if Erzed, the lord of the Magic Tower, were to rush over, it would take at least three full days.”

“You don’t need to worry about that. We have the witches, including Princess Consort.”

“……What?”

“Unlike mages who borrow the power of nature to manipulate mana, witches can take the lives of sacrifices to replenish their magical power, right? We have plenty of witches and plenty of humans to offer as sacrifices to them, so creating a gate of that scale should be entirely possible.”

Leonard and the other vassals were horrified by his devilish words, but no one tried to stop him. No, they couldn’t. Victory in this war was just as desperate for them. The Marquis looked around at those who silently agreed with him and said.

“I know that too. She spends the whole day locked in her bedroom, scratching her body and screaming, or otherwise drugged with strong painkillers and just clinging to her husband, right? Countess Ramoth was worried that if things continue like this, Princess Consort will soon pass away.”

“Knowing that, why……?”

“If she’s going to die anyway even if we leave her alone, we should squeeze out every last drop of mana left in that body and use it before discarding her. Isn’t that right?”

A cold smile spread across the Marquis’s face once again. Danae widened her eyes at those words, then soon quietly smiled along with him.
