## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldia War Arc

At beginning of the Battle of Altaras Kingdom, Lieutenant General Lee Jacques of the Imperial Army was gazing over the capital from the rooftop of his temporary command center of the Hyperion Base. The Japanese attack began while Lee Jacques watched the 100-gun ship of the line *Spall*. He began to prepare for battle in a hurry, but at that time, all 20 imperial ships-of-the-line destroyed. The JASDF F-2 fighters dropped the bombs at the Hyperion Base, engulfing in the raging fireballs of multiple explosions erupting all over. Lee Jacques was knocked down onto the floor by the force of the blasts. When he came to, the roof had disappeared, giving him a blurry, dusty view of the sky above. He caught the mechanical aircraft with red circles on the wings cruising through the skies at unbelievable speeds. He rapidly got up from the floor and reached the communications room. He instructed his communications officer to inform the Japanese attacks on all bases and the colonial government across the island through emergency channels. The communications officer removed pieces of the fallen roof from the magi-feed broadcast, which was still in functioning order, and frantically repeated Lee Jacques’ statement. All imperial manacomms across the island received the message, listening to it on Parpaldian emergency channels. However, as soon as the communications officer sent out the message, Lee Jacques was killed with subordinates in the room when they saw a blinding burst of light that was again generated by the bombing of the F-2 fighters.

Upon entering firing range, the warships of the JMSDF’s 2nd Escort Flotilla commenced their bombardment of the ships-of-the-line of the Altaran colonial government’s Maritime Defense Unit anchored in the port east of the capital Le Brias, sinking all of them. At the same time, the F-2 fighters coming from the airport in the Sios Kingdom launched airstrikes against Hyperion Base and the other base 40km north of the capital, neutralizing both of them. Within 20 minutes of the start of the attack, the Parpaldian force stationed on the island of Altaras virtually ceased to be a fighting force; with their objectives fulfilled, the Japanese warships and fighter aircraft returned to their bases without loss or casualty.

By the way, the large in receiving the emergency communication test sailing Dragon Carrier *Veronia* of belonging the Elite Wyvern Overload unit urgent relief, but Denis and Gio witnessed the destruction of the army bases, where no one was moving.

Meanwhile, Captain Ryal was looking at the wreckage from a tower where twenty ships-of-the-line anchored at the port. They were assaulted by fearsome explosive magic and one by one went up in flames and then sunk into the sea. He could only stand there in astonishment at the sight and watched something unbelievably fast passed overhead behind him by a boom of thunder. When he turned around, he saw that the Hyperion Base was being consumed by fire. He grabbed his magical communication and yelled into it to begin the all-military operation.

Afterward, the Papaldia Empire’s governing board, having lost nearly all of its military power, surrendered to the rebel organizations that had caused simultaneous uprisings across the country. The Altaras Kingdom had regained its sovereignty.
