## Chronology

### Pre-New World War Arc

At the command post in the Bushpaka Latan island, highest-ranking officer Gorvis Repsant heard the report from a soldier that several unknown individuals in control of magical beasts appeared at the north port, including a hundred-legged snake. He turned surprised and thought it still impossible for the Holy Milishial Empire to have achieved the level of technology necessary to rein in something like a hundred-legged snake, despite their advancing capabilities in reverse engineering the Ravernal Empire’s relics. Gorvis, commander of the Annonrial armed forces’ Bushpaka Latan garrison, set aside his stockpiled paperwork and bolted for the port.

A rather massive crowd had formed at the port. Several dozen curious yet hundred-legged snakes were coming off a ship that had come into port unannounced. Adem stood amid this conglomeration of monstrosity seemingly unfazed by their presence and looked at all lines of soldiers with their swords drawn out, surrounding him. After explaining his situation to the authorities, he was told to wait. But he was also not close to the idea of letting loose his beasts to kill everyone on the spot to make an example. When a carriage arrived at the scene, Gorvis walked towards Adem and asked him who he was. Adem explained to him the general from the former Lourian army outside the civilized areas who learned that the Annonrial Empire was the genesis of all demon beast controllers, which he had come to ask for power to control the great beasts.

Gorvis took a closer look around him and confirmed for himself the presence of a hundred-legged snake, which appeared to be tamed. He remembered the Louria Kingdom outside the civilized areas located to their northeast. He heard they lost in a war with Japan and an unnamed country from outside the civilized areas. He learned this individual might either be a deserter or someone seeking asylum; all were possibilities that may pose a problem diplomatically. He asked Adem something to control the hundred-legged snake with telekinetic telepathy, but Adam did not know about telepathy. He decided to check Adem with the mandatory body check and looked closer at Adem’s person, which bore a curious mark appearing to be engraved onto the skin on his right shoulder blade as the Numbers. Gorvis decided to skip all the diplomatic pleasantries and get right to the process but would have to make some calls. He ordered his men to escort Adem to the command center.

After barking to his men to courteously escort Adem to the command center, Gorvis hopped back into the carriage. He brooded over this unprecedented turn of events that the Numbers would be a survivor of that experiment who controlled the demon beasts and sea monsters, including a hundred-legged snake. Once he had returned to his office, he immediately contacted his superiors back at the Annonrial mainland through their emergency magic channels. He also reported to Wahl, the laboratory director of the Advanced Biological Research Laboratory.
