Kana

**Kana** is a technical officer of Mu Army's Department of Information Analysis. She is a newcomer assignee to Myrus Leclerc.

## Personality

Kana is a stout junior character who is able to express her opinions to her seniors without hesitation.

On the other hand, she is concerned about women of her age. She loves clothes. She remembered the clothes she wore in her private life, and even the clothes she liked suddenly seemed old-fashioned. She goes to Japan under the guise of conveying the basics of magical element research to get a taste of Japanese fashion from Japanese fashion magazines.

## Chronology

### New World War Arc

After the Great Naval Battle of Baltica, his new female subordinate Kana, who had been assigned to technical officer Myrus for the new year, was sitting next to him and helping him, following the example of her seniors. During the discussion between Myrus and his subordinate Kana, he studied the research materials on the Annonrial Empire that the information department certainly didn't know anything about the Annonrial Empire. Mu tried to make expeditions to the southern world, only to end in disaster. However, long ago, that area had been known as a dangerous sea area inhabited by giant sea monsters and speculated that an aquatic type of evil dragon might be roaming the waters. Some people even seriously believed that it might be a world of the dead, as the land had made little progress in researching the area. Kana asked him if the Annonrial Empire was pretending to have a lower level of civilization, but Myrus thought in terms of why they wouldn't raise the level of civilization. The southern world had vast tracts of land, so the Annonrial Empire could fend for itself. She believed that was not a reason not to improve Mu's economy. She isolated that it was a little weak that she assumed a ship of the Annonrial Empire's delegation returning from the Eleven Country Leadership Conference and Mu merchant ship met in these waters. She took out a map buried in the documents and pointed to the north of Bushpaka Latan, the only island in the Annonrial Empire that was allowed to trade, but the problem was when Myrus and Kana met in the waters last eight and a half days after the Annonrial Empire walked away from the conference. Myrus also noticed that the Annonrial ship left the conference, and calculated the speed to be at least 18 knots (about 33 km/h), which must be equipped with some kind of magic engine, or it would be unnatural. Kana was suspicious of the disguised technological level of the delegation. She suggested Mu Intelligence Department needed to investigate further. Myles wrote something in the document and put it away in a folder.

Next, he opened the envelope that had just arrived. Looking at the developed photograph, Myrus was amazed by the performance of the aerial battleship Pal Chimera of the Holy Mirishial Empire, particularly the Atrates Cannon. Kana, who peeked in from the side, believed the Intelligence Department's story was a lie about a large object that could float in the sky, but she never thought it could be real. Looking through the photos, she flipped through the thin documents among the materials obtained by the Intelligence Department about the Holy Mirishial Empire. She learned that aviation technology from the Gra Valkas Empire was more advanced than Mu was unable to match the aerial battleships, but they had brought it down. He was saddened that such a great machine got downed by a lucky shot from the battleship *Grade Atlastar*. He also explained to her that the Atrates Cannon installed in the aerial battleship Pal Chime works similar to the Phalanx CIWS of Japan, and he was confident that Japan could shoot down those sky behemoths using their guided missiles. She asked him if the atrates cannon might be able to handle those anti-ship guided missiles, but he doubted it. The atrates cannon would never be able to intercept them, which had the function detect the arrival of non-magical objects. The structure converted magic power into electricity, emitted it as radio waves, and then captured the reflected waves. He told her that Japan was developing missiles that could evade radar, citing that he already learned about Japan's research on stealth technology. She couldn't hide her surprise at this far-future way of fighting a war.

Then Kana asked him if the weapons were supposed to have enemies and evolve accordingly, but she wanted to know what exactly Japan had been fighting against. He described the United States of America as a "demonic" country in the previous world Earth due to their tremendous technological and military power compared to Japan, which they would normally win even against the Ravernal Empire. Japan was fortunate in that they were able to make most of their own weapons if they only had to pay for them because they were a technological power with no resources, whereas the country would only end up importing high-performance weapons. Even after the transition, Japan had not that much trouble operating weapons. Kana was impressed to hear Japan had survived in the previous world. Myrus learned Japan was having a hard time in magic research, turning Kana serious about not detecting a rise in magical elements. If a great mage-level figure were to deploy an offensive magic formula in the immediate vicinity, they would not be aware of it, which would make them very vulnerable to terrorism. He supposed they either didn't realize that Japan was vulnerable to magical detection, or even if the nationalities of the perpetrators were identified, it would be destroyed for each country, making Kana horrified at the sheer foreignness of Japan.

Myrus reminded something progressing in fashion to her as he opened a cabinet of information about Japan. He gave her a Japanese women's fashion magazine, making her excited. She immediately started her research on Japan, but he questioned her about the technical research and position. She desperately explained in detail about the magical element detection system, studying Japan's technology, ethnicity, and fashion would lead to the future of Mu. Myrus was finally pushed aside by Kana's tremendous formality.

Later that day, Kana was dispatched to Japan as a technical officer to convey the basic contents of the magical element research accumulated in Mu. Under the guise of conducting research on ethnicity, she enjoyed Japanese fashion firmly.
