Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 23

(EP-23.2) Angmar #3

023 – Peaceful Angmar #3

“Damn. That Queen Aira was really scary, huh? It felt like you were looking at a black hole with no end in sight!”

Marmar chatted nonstop until I finished all the work in the office.

My ears hurt a little, but it wasn’t too bad since I gained quite a bit of information.

“We have no choice but to follow the current Angmar. There is no other way, we have to adapt to live.”

“That’s true...”

The Ogre Gorgor.

The Imp Marmar.

Like the two above, there were actually quite a few types of monsters living amongst the people.

Having intelligence meant that they could coexist with other races.

Among such beings, monsters that resembled humans, at least those with arms and legs, were called ‘humanoids’.

Of course, that didn’t mean that their treatment would be good.

After all, these servants of the old Demon King Angmar had now been reduced to mere captives.

This world was not kind enough to lend a warm hand to such beings. Non-payment of wages was the default and if they were disliked, they would be burned at the stake.

Thanks to that, it felt like these monsters were ticking time ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) bombs that could explode at any time.

Like Gorgor, these disgruntled monsters would inevitably cause chaos and riots all over the Kingdom....

If such incidents continued while Angmar’s manpower and resources dwindled, it would only be natural for the national power to slowly decline.

Thus, I chose to make anti-discrimination laws for monsters.

However, would the ‘labor assistant’ owners, who had tasted cheap labor, not fiercely oppose it?

Right now, there had already been considerable opposition to the fact that Imps, Ogres and other monsters were classified as ‘humanoids’ like the Elves, Dwarves and Nymphs.

The owners had also made their stance in front of the court.

━If we have to give monsters minimum wage, all of us small and medium-sized owners will go bankrupt!

━Everyone, let’s all stand together!

As I was thinking about that, Marmar snorted.

“But we have hope. One day, Angmar the savior will return once more. He will create a peaceful and fair world for us!”

Marmar clenched both of her fists like some warrior.

Demon King Angmar being the one and only savior was a common belief among monsters.

Even the Ogre Gorgor said that the only true King was the Demon King Angmar.

What was it that made them so loyal to the deceased Demon King? Was it simply because of the story setting?

Thinking that there might be a hint on how to control the monsters, I asked Marmar.

“Why do you think Angmar is coming back? As far as I know, the four families already tore him to shreds and burned his corpse to ashes.”

The wise Tarantera Family.

The valiant Lioness Family.

The free Belhawk Family.

The devout Draco Family.

These four great families united for a rebellion, and the Tarantera Family, who accomplished the most, inherited the throne through an agreement.

This was the story that had been told to most people.

However, the monsters might know something more.

Marmar the Imp said ‘muh-huh’ with a dark shadow on her face.

“King Angmar is coming back. He’s not dead yet. This is the proof. Long live Angmar!”
