## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldian War Arc

After the Esthirant Air Strike and the Great Naval Battle of Esthirant, Brem was the first appearance at the regular executive meeting with commanding officer Strim, dragon knights commander Gauss, and Imperial Navy Eastern Fleet commander Lutos at the Duro Defense Force's Imperial Army Base in Duro. During the meeting, he was surprised to hear the emergency report from a communication officer that the attack on the imperial capital Esthirant and the destruction of the Imperial Army Base of the Capital Defense Force. Not only he did despise Japan, but he thought that Japan would attack Duro before the imperial capital.

Consistent with the opinion and analysis of Lutos that Japan should be assumed to have more weapons and equipment than Mu. Brem agreed with Lutos as he believed it was ridiculous to despise such an opponent as a barbarian. Before they had strategies and tactics to use in fighting against the Japanese, Strim asked the communication officer about Japanese weapons, which was not certain yet, but according to eyewitness reports of Japan’s weapons including, mechanical planes with thunderclaps and magical guided bullets like the ones used by the ancient sorcerous empire in the myths, warships were faster without sails and used 20km range magic cannons, and more fantastical. Knowing the high performance of Japanese weapons, Brem advised Strim to shift to stage 2 alert for the entire army. On this day, Duro moved to a higher alert level. More lookouts were deployed, radar kept on for 24 hours, a quick reaction force formed, and more men were put on duty in preparation for the inevitable attack from Japan.

When the Duro Air Strike began, JASDF F-2 fighters flying at incredible speeds showed up in the airspace above Duro, destroying ten wyvern lords in an extremely short time before disappearing into the skies. Brem was in an emergency meeting with the commanders of the Duro Defense Force to discuss strategies against the Japanese. Brem and Strim witnessed Japan's aircraft and weapons that far exceeded Mu's weapons. Strim cursed himself because he believed the imperial military command's lies. Brem calmly decided that should be more attacks coming as a full-scale invasion. He learned from reports that they had not yet received the ground attacks described to occur when the Japanese attacked Esthirant, but he believed they tried to secure air superiority first, where they attacked the dragon knights. He asked Strim permission to use the one magical anti-aircraft gun from the Holy Milishial Empire, which was smuggled from the research facility. Strim approved Brem’s request to deploy the magical anti-aircraft gun for combat. After that, the use of magic anti-aircraft gun permitted restraint by showing the existence of effective weapons against Japan even if they couldn't be repelled.

After the F-2 fighter destroyed the magical anti-aircraft gun with 20mm bullets, the F-15 and F-2 fighters flew ahead of the BP-3C Orion bombers to intercept them, easily dispersing and exploding a dozen squadrons of dragon knights by the missiles across the city of Duro endlessly. When the BP-3C Orion bombers finally reached the skies above them, they dropped hundreds of bombs. The bombs erupted into enormous explosions as soon as they hit the industrial areas, causing tremendous earthquakes to close the Imperial Army Base. As the bombs reached the base at long last, the flurry of explosions followed suit, leveling everything and everyone that was still standing under a blanket of hellfire, killing Brem and other commanders of the Duro Defense Force.
