## Summary

* Once the Crimson Vow returned home from the Albarn Empire, they decided to have a three-week vacation so that Mavis and Pauline could return home and Reina could visit the graves of her father and old allies. With Mile being left alone, she decided to make a solo journey to the border towns where the Albarn Empire, Kingdom of Tils, and Kingdom of Brandel meet. Once at the border town on the Kingdom of Tils' side, Mile accepts a red-mark job to join the local group of mercenaries in the Kingdom of Brandel to protect Baron Arreighman's land.

* Once Kelvin von Bellium graduated from Eckland Academy, he was hired as a Officer Cadet in Baron Arreighman's forces. A few months later, the Baron and all of his family and retainers abandoned the territory under the pretense of going to request reinforcements, leaving Kelvin to be promoted to officer and left him in charge of defending the territory. After some time, imperial troops arrived at Territorial Capital of Arreighman and were met by Kelvin and his forces outside of the town.

* Kelvin then gave the option to his soldiers that is they want to be discharged that they can leave and at once, Kelvin lost half his forces. After that the battles began and although the empire could easily end the battle, they held off in order to attempt to minimize their own casualties. Kelvin fought bravely on the battlefront and moments before he was to be struck down, Mile showed up and saved his life.

* Mile then gives Kelvin some muscle recovery medicine and a sword, and then heals all of the kingdom's troops. Kelvin and the healed soldiers then return to the battle and Mile uses a large-scale non-lethal spells to scare the imperial troops. Once an opening occurred, Kelvin and his troops stormed through the enemy's frontlines towards the enemy's center of operations. Seeing this, the soldiers who initially left, returned along with citizens who were taking up arms. With the influx of additional soldiers, the battle was over.

* Once Baron Arreighman arrived in the Royal Palace of Brandel, he gave a false report to King Brandel and when he was caught in the lie, his family was stripped of their assets and titles, and exiled.
