Celgaia

**Celgaia** is an middle-aged man employed as a sweeper at the naval facility of the Imperial Navy Headquarters in the port of Esthirant, south of Esthirant in the Parpaldia Empire.

## Background

He was an alumnus of the imperial college and the Imperial Vice Admiral Barth, who was once a rival with almost the same level of performance and athletic ability, but inferior to him by "almost". He was not resentful or jealous of Barth, but rather proud of him as a good friend.

## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldian War Arc

During the Great Naval Battle of Esthirant, Celgaia silently carried out his duties as a sweeper at the naval facility. He continued to work through the verbal abuse from the low-rank soldiers. He gazed up at the Imperial Naval Base, where Vice Admiral Barth worked to command all ships. Suddenly, he looked out at the three objects traveling above the ocean approaching at high speeds. In less than a moment, the three Type 90 anti-ship missiles from the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force flew past him towards the Imperial Navy Headquarters and landed one after the other onto the headquarters in bright flashes of light. Immediately afterward the tremendous roar of explosions, he collapsed on his knees to witness the Imperial Naval Base destroyed, thus Vice Admiral Barth died in the attack.

Slapping life into his legs, Celgaia was able to get up and ran straight for the city. He looked back and caught sight of strange AH-64D and AH-1S attack helicopters taking to the sky. He ran past the barracks, the ammunition depot, and the all-important gun battery. He ran away from the port, got up onto high ground, and then turned to watch. The JMSDF flotillas hit the gun battery numerous times in a row, turning it into a giant bonfire. Then, after the ammunition depot hit, the entire port was enveloped in explosions. Celgaia felt completely helpless but survived and witnessed after the JMSDF's attack on the Esthirant port resulted in the destruction of the navy headquarters, the weapons storage facilities, and the barracks.

At a later date, he encountered Remille while she was escaping. Here he was almost killed by the woman but due to his knowledge in martial arts, he easily disarmed her and got caught. Due to this, he was rewarded by the head of government Kaios an honorary title and position in the Parpaldia Army.

After that, he succeeded in writing and publishing several books. Among them, the book "My Lucky Life", which about his life story, has become a best seller.

### Short Story: Lucky Celgaia

As he caught Remille, Celgaia was considered a hero of the empire. He never expected the turn of events that happened in his life. He managed to wear fancy clothes, something that he never expected and needed for his awarding ceremony and appointment as an honorary general of the Parpaldian Army. He was also groomed at a government-affiliated barbershop without spending a dime. He managed to meet the provisional head of government Kaios and he was welcomed with honors.

At a later date, he went to the Marriage Agency to changed his status. At first he was not recognized by the employees and were rude to him, just like before. When he stated in his updated form that he is the honorary member of the Army, their attitudes changed. 2 days later, he was flooded with 749 marriage offers due to his changed status, a first time in the history of the agency. He asked why is this happened, which the agency replied maybe due to his status being the national hero. However, he was still humble and resets his requirements for marriage. He managed to get married a woman from a decent family and had a son.

Celgaia's life also became glorious as he became a respected member of the Army. He also became a celebrity and appeared on television and Japanese movies. Although he became famous, he remained humble.
