The North is about to get a lot bloodier! In The Regressed Mercenary’s Machinations Chapter 77, we’re moving away from the “recruitment phase” and straight into the “total war phase.” Ghislain Perdium is no longer just a “good-for-nothing noble”—he’s proving to be the ultimate battlefield puppet master. If you’ve been waiting to see the full potential of his mercenary-built army vs. the Duke’s professional knights, this chapter is where the hammer finally drops.
Highlights
> Castle Siege Climax: The brutal battle for the Northern fortress reaches its peak as Ghislain’s tactical traps finally spring on the Duke’s forces.
> The Mage’s Gambit: Amelia Rayfold demonstrates her devastating area-of-effect mana technique, proving why she was Ghislain’s most regretted loss in his previous life.
> Aether Resonance: Ghislain prepares to tap into the "Flow of the World," hinting at a power level that even mid-rank knights can't comprehend.
The Regressed Mercenary’s Machinations Chapter 76 Recap?

The recent chapters have been focused on Ghislain turning the Norvagen estate into an impenetrable death trap.
- The Fortress Breach: In Chapter 76, the Duke’s main entrance assault was in full swing. We saw Gillian forced to pull back as Ghislain’s “realistic” defensive tactics turned the gate into a meat grinder.
- Recruiting the Ace: Ghislain successfully brought Amelia (the mana genius) into the fold, barely saving her before her mana core could shatter like it did in his past life.
- Siege Logic: The story recently emphasized the reality of medieval warfare—it doesn’t matter how many knights you have if the person inside the castle knows every secret path and bottleneck.
The Regressed Mercenary’s Machinations Chapter 77 Spoilers?

- The Trap Springs: Spoilers suggest Chapter 77 will feature the “Fire in the Hole” moment. Ghislain is rumored to have rigged the castle’s underground mana veins, leading to a massive environmental explosion that wipes out the Duke’s vanguard.
- Amelia’s Debut: This is the moment we see Amelia’s true value. She’s expected to use her “unusual mana method” to ignite the battlefield, providing the numbers-leveling destructive power Ghislain has been missing.
- The Mercenary King’s Shadow: Watch for Ghislain’s eyes. Word is he’s going to use a “Mercenary King” technique that he hasn’t touched since his regression, shocking the veterans on the field who didn’t think a “noble kid” could move like a reaper.
