## Chronology

### Operation Momotarou

When the Demon Lord began invading the Topa Kingdom with over a thousand goblins and those two ogres, Topa Kingdom needed to ask Japan for reinforcements.

Squad Leader Inugami Tsuyoshi listened Momota’s explanation the details of this mission named Operation Momotarou with Squad Leader Kijima Hitoshi and Saruwatari Manabu and several soldiers about the Demon Lord and his demon’s army. Everyone was reading the mission handout while listening to the explanation. The summary was as follows:

* *The target known as the “Demon Lord” is intelligent, able to command other demons, and aims to inflict harm on all mankind. In addition, it primarily eats people.*
* *The Demon Lord has no natural lifespan; it does not age.*
* *The Demon Lord was apparently created by the Ancient Sorcerous Empire, an old civilization. It was probably the subject of genetic manipulation.*
* *The targets Red Ogre and Blue Ogre are purportedly quite powerful as well.*
* *Orcs are 2.5m-tall giants with low intelligence.*
* *Goblins are physically weaker than humans but much more savage, and they are numerous.*
* *The Topan knight order is currently holding off the Demon Lord’s army at the castle town of Tormeus.*
* *The objective of the mission is to exterminate the Demon Lord, the Red Ogre, and the Blue Ogre. Any other demons can be ignored.*

He actually dared to say it out loud that they were like a party of heroes going to slay the Demon Lord. Everyone laughed. Platoon Leader Momota Tarou raised his hand and the laughter ended. The Japan Ground Self Defense Force Special Topa Kingdom Deployment Advance Platoon went to the Topa Kingdom in three day with 5 high-mobility vehicles, 1 Type 96 Armored Personnel Carrier, 1 Mitsubishi Type 89 IFV and 1 Type 10 battle tank.

In the rescue operation, a large number of civilians were rescued by rushing from the dead water supply, and after the rescue, the castle and the castle gate were defended.

While the special task force was engaging the Demon Lord, the JGSDF Special Topa Kingdom Deployment Advance Platoon was also preparing for battle. The heavy door was lifted, and Momota was greeted by a five-story-high rock monster coming straight towards him. They would lead with the Type 10 battle tank to face the Demon Lord and Ancient Kaiser Golem.

When Ancient Kaiser Golem hit by the Type 10 battle tank and crashed loudly to the ground, the Demon Lord Nosgorath jumped up into the air, astonishing physical ability brought it up fifty meters. The Demon Lord began to chant the spell, a black flame gathering in his hand. Inugami was already waiting on top of the castle wall, prepared, and began to act even before the order came. He quickly and accurately readied the familiar Type 91 SAM in his hands, then immediately locked-on to the Demon Lord. Compared to the Stinger, the Type 91 was better for frontal attacks and instantaneous interception; he aimed at the Demon Lord, which was still chanting its spell in midair, and fired.

The homing missile flew straight for the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord noticed it flying up at high speed, canceled its offensive magic, and activated a defensive magic shield. A pale, golden-colored wall materialized in front of it. It was a direct hit. The missile exploded near its head, blasting the Demon Lord straight into the ground at high speed. The JSDF soldiers all fired their automatic weapons. The 12.7mm machine gun atop the Type 96 also fired. Countless bullets from numerous people hammered into the monster.

When the shell hit the Demon Lord Nosgorath by the Type 10 battle tank, blowing its body into pieces, the voice from the Demon Lord’s head echoed cursing them. It was loud enough for everyone in the area to hear. Inugami was shocked when Momota yelled in surprise that the Demon Lord’s head was immortal and heard his final dying words before turning to stone and crumbling into dust.
