Chapter 101: Gra Cabal’s Determination

**Birkburn** is the director of the Imperial Ministry of Countermeasures Against the Ancient Sorcerous Empire in the Holy Milishial Empire.

## Personality

Birkburn is the most important person in the Imperial Ministry of Countermeasures Against the Ancient Sorcerous Empire, which has jurisdiction over numerous excavated weapons.

He's supposed to be a very important department in the Anti-Monarchies organization, but he's very under the radar. This is the reason why he has approached Hirkane Parpe for the operation of the aerial battleship Pal Chimera, but even that was a blunder and his confidence was about to be transferred to his subordinate Captain Meteos.

## Chronology

### New World War Arc

After the destruction of the Gra Valkas Empire Great Fleet in the Great Naval Invasion of Japan, Birkburn participated in the meeting with Emperor Milishial VIII and all high-level governmental officials at the Castle Albion in the capital city of Runepolis. The meeting’s agenda had already been discussed through preliminary reports and fragmentary videos of the naval battle between Japan and the Gra Valkas Empire. They watched the video by recording from the aerial battleship Pal Chimera, showing an anti-ship guided missile landed on a cruiser, causing a more violent and bigger intense explosion. Unable to find any other words beyond shock, Birkburn and other officials stayed silent as they watched the video. Japanese cruisers bombarded the battleship *Grade Atlastar* with multiple missiles and shells, making them wonder how thick the armoring was on the enemy battleship.

After the video ended, Birkburn and other officials were shocked about Japan’s strength. He listened to Intelligence Bureau Director Arneus explaining the anti-ship guided missiles, causing Military Minister Schmill Pao's anxiety and humiliation on Japan’s advanced weapons development.

National Defense Minister Agra handed out the documents and discussed the necessity of the operation about the Liberation of the Hinomawari Kingdom first before Leifor. Japan wanted to build an airfield around Valkyries for an attack on Leifor’s west coast, which was a considerable distance between the vicinity of Valkyries and Leiforia. Birkburn asked Agra why Mu hadn't continued to the capital Leiforia. Agra explained to him and other officials that the remnants of the Gra Valkas Empire army were using the Foreign Affairs building in the Hinomawari Kingdom as their command site. This building is also built right next to the king’s estate. In addition, the important military installations are located right next to the capital’s residential areas. Mu was very concerned about them even when they used to be a client state of Leifor.

Birkburn and the governmental officials read the documents. According to what’s written in the documents, once the Hinomawari Kingdom had been liberated, Japan would set up an airfield around the Valkyries base, then destroy the Gra Valkas Empire fleet off Leiforia through airstrikes. In addition, attached to the document is a request to the Holy Milishial Empire to dispatch a fleet to carry out a naval blockade once they’ve secured air superiority.

The Holy Milishial Empire has decided that after they’ve confirmed the destruction of the enemy fleet off Leiforia, it will send a fleet led by magic battleships to spearhead a naval blockade.
