Haki

**Haki** is a miner and leader of the Kooze Kingdom Reconstruction Army.

## Personality

Haki is a resident of the Kooze territory of the Parpaldia Empire and a steelworker in the magic gem mines. He comrades the rebel called the Kooze Kingdom Reconstruction Army with a group of over 2,500 cooperators.

## Background

Haki was once born into the famous knight's family in the Kooze Kingdom, but the kingdom was annexed by the Parpaldia Empire when he was at age of five. His father left to fight off the Parpaldia Empire. However, the superpower was too strong, his father was killed in battle and his mother was subsequently taken to the imperial army. After being forcefully taken to the mine, he continued to work there ever since.

His antipathy turned to despair, and he almost lost the will to live, but he regained his will to live when he heard the news that the Parpaldia Empire had been defeated by the Japanese.

## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldian War Arc

#### Post-Battle of Fenn Kingdom

At first, his heart burned with animosity towards them, but, knowing the empire’s unparalleled national power and the strength of their military, it faded away over time, along with his despair. On the contrary, Haki started to wonder why would the Kooze Republic even try to fight back if they knew of the gaping disparity.

The other day, he had an old magic communications device to hear on the news from the Holy Mirishial Empire that Parpaldia invaded an eastern island to the Fenn Kingdom. He regained his energy to live when he learned of the news that the Parpaldia Imperial fleet had lost the war to Japan in the Battle of Fenn Kingdom.

#### Post-Battle of Altaras Kingdom

After the Battle of Altaras Kingdom, he was listening to the urgent news on the magic broadcast from the Holy Mirishial Empire that the Altaras kingdom, which was invaded and conquered by the superpower Parpaldia Empire, had declared its independence and the call of the new queen Lumies inspired herself. He felt his heartburn with passion. Maybe it was possible to escape from this hopeless, empty situation. For the sake of both his own country and Altaras, he should start gathering comrades and organized the rebel called the Kooze Kingdom Reconstruction Army with a group of over 2,500 cooperators.

#### Post-Great Naval Battle of Esthirant

After the Esthirant Air Strike and the Great Naval Battle of Esthirant, the governing board army started preparing to withdraw to Parpaldia from Kooze Kingdom two days ago by Supreme Commander Arde's order. Ikia hurriedly ran to Haki’s house and informed him that almost every soldier in the governing board army has left Kooze this morning.

Haki asked him absolutely it wasn't the false information that the organization's existence had been revealed, but Ikia told him that the Papaldia Empire’s Imperial Capital Defense base was destroyed which they were pulling out in order to fill that hole in their defenses. He was speechless what Ikia told the base got destroyed by Japan's giant aircraft and five hundred and fifty ships-of-the-line and dragon carriers by Japan's twenty ships. This war report was too far removed from his war sensibilities and he had trouble processing it mentally.

Haki was speechless what Ikia told the base got destroyed by Japan's giant aircraft and five hundred and fifty ships-of-the-line and dragon carriers by Japan's twenty ships. This war report was too far removed from his war sensibilities and he had trouble processing it mentally, but he didn't hear any report on the news from the other civilized areas. Ikia believed maybe it’s because what happened was so crazy and unbelievable or the other countries are just lacking information. Neither Japan nor Papaldia has released an official report yet.

Haki decided it was time to move at three o’clock for the Kooze Kingdom Reconstruction Army to ready march to the governing board’s office, but Ikia warned him that if the governing board army were to return, the Reconstruction Army with only swords and shields would be wiped out. Haki was determined to start the rebellion. His head was filled only with defeating the empire; he didn’t think about what would happen afterward. The ghost of vengeance continued to burn fiercely in his heart.

However, Ikia was incredibly upset at Haki’s impulsive, simplistic decision to begin a revolution. This wasn’t a game, it was a war where people bet their lives. Many of those people had families, and they needed to be convinced that there was good reason to risk everything. Even if they could set up a temporary government after the revolution, as long as the empire was not defeated, it was just a matter of time before they came back into power and trampled over Kooze once again. Before Ikia mobilized the rebels via magic communication, he decided to first see whether he could convince one of the organizations at a certain place of this plan.

The people from the organization pointed out the same worries that Ikia had; he knew it, it was too early to rebel. A worn-out image receiver that had been installed in the house began to glow. Ikia and his conversation partners both turned to look at the First Civilization device. Queen Lumies of the Altaras Kingdom incited rebellion with her strong voice in the empire's seventy-two territories over a magical emergency broadcast.

People in the organization listened to the same broadcast and knew of Haki’s and Ikia’s objectives. On this day, the Kooze territory revolted against the empire and retook control of its own country. As a result, Kooze Kingdom was the earliest to regain independence, along with Marta, and Arukh.
