Domination of Equestria - T+213 days.
Fall of the Crystal Empire - 18:12
“Wheeeee!”
“Pinkie! Pay attention! We’re supposed to be covering the evacuation route!”
“I am Dashie! See!?”
Well, whatever her attitude, her methods were working. Brain, take a note, never be on the wrong end of a Party Cannon loaded with shards of crystal.
Damn it’s unpleasant.
Still, It’s hardly like I’m slacking myself.
“I’m up to twenty eight!”
“Hehe, you’re beating me Dashie, I’m only on twenty five. Oop! sorry, thirty two! I’m winning! Weee!”
I need to be faster.
One-two to the face!
Grab him! Drop him!
Take out that cannon, come on!
I need to be Faster!
At this rate the Crystal Empire will fall to that sicko!
I’m done failing my Friends! You hear me!
"I’m Done!"
“That’s a shame. I was hoping to spar with you some more.”
“You!”
“Me!”
“Pinkie no!”
I’ve got to stop her! Come on, faster! Faster!
“Ah ah ah. I’d stop right there if I was you Miss Dash.”
No...Pinkie…
“‘I’m sorry Dashie…”
“I’d give up right now Miss Dash. Hand yourself in now, and maybe we’ll save enough time that she might still be saved.”
“No, Dashe, I’ll be fine. You need to...stop...him…”
“I’m no doctor Miss Dash, but I don’t think having a sword through your lung is ‘fine’.”
Damnit! No, It wasn’t supposed to go like this!
“I won’t. She wouldn’t want me to give up on the Empire. We can still win here, you’re outnumbered. We’re going to win!”
“That’s not quite right Miss Dash. See, I’ve just been told that the penultimate phase of my plan is ready. I just need to enact the last step.”
“What? The stars in alignment or something? You going to do some mumbo jumbo and bring the house down? Well I won’t let you!”
Wait, what’s that in his hand? Is that a-?
“No, nothing that odd. Just my weapon is now armed and aimed. Now I just press this little button aaannndddd-”
My eyes! Gah!
The heat, the light, what the hay! It’s like Celestia just dropped the sun on us or something.
I can’t see. I can’t see!
“Guh!”
“Miss Dash,”
No, he’s right in my ear. I can’t...move…
“I Promised you two things, back in our storied past. Last we met I promised I wouldn’t spare you twice. And before that, I told you, you’d regret saving me.”
“Bastard,”
“I’ll take that to mean you’ve revised your opinion on regret, shall I?”
I can’t stay awake. What’s he done? Where’s Pinkie? No.
Not like this…
“Lock her up. The moment we get back she’s going directly into Block L.”
“What about the other one Master?”
“Take her-”
Overlord Rule No:85 I will not use any plan in which the final step is horribly complicated, e.g. "Align the 12 Stones of Power on the sacred altar then activate the medallion at the moment of total eclipse." Instead it will be more along the lines of "Push the button."
I'm learning so much from him
But isn't he breaking other rules by not just killing them when he has the chance?
I mean eventually they are all going to break out. That's how these things go. It's inevitable.
6502172 I agree with you on this. I feel like keeping them as bait breaks the rules. Maybe it is to prevent the Elements from selecting new hosts and being used against him? That way he is keeping control of one of the things that might harm him and with proper prison guard rules it shouldn't be too big of a problem.
This does X-plain the L block stuff from earlier today.

Soon!
Hold on, who got blinded? Who's talking in first person? You keep switching between the view of the Evil Overlord and others without clarification or warning. It makes it very hard to tell who's on the receiving end of what.
and this rule illustrates the importance of not leaving any openings at a crucial moment as they could mean game over.
You don't just go and promote your pawn when you have enough pieces to get check mate without it.
The victory might not be as clean as one would ideally hope; but making sure you are achieving a victory is the most important part, is it not?

You are bad at reading first person cues.
The perspective is Rainbow Dash, the entire time.
This chapter is also Overlord Rule 68: I will spare someone who saved my life sometime in the past. This is only reasonable as it encourages others to do so. However, the offer is good one time only. If they want me to spare them again, they'd better save my life again.

he might 'gift them' to his more trusted minions.

How are they going to break out, when he keeps them in seperate cell blocks, transfers guards who start showing signs of concern for the prisoners, and just generally stymies their efforts on principle?
I take this back
The villain protagonist is brilliant. He builds doomsday weapons and was able to make a extremely powerful computer from a medieval with trains level of tech in only 2 years at max!
