He had 600 cavalry, but in the face of the imperial army’s 3,000 soldiers, they would simply be annihilated. The imperial army was heading for the western castle and would arrive soon.

The castle lord Godan was preparing for a siege at the western castle. When he heard the explosion and saw smoke in the direction of the castle gate, he was shocked that the castle gate had been destroyed. In that the Parpaldia Empire's power could toppled it with only attack by their land dragons.

The imperial army pressed forward with their land dragons in the lead with wyvern lords in the skies charging up their fire blasts. The western castle was going up in flames all over.

During the Battle of Fenn Kingdom, the dragon carriers all spontaneously exploded where Vice Admiral Armos was boarded by anti-ship missiles from Japan Air Self Defense Force’s F-2 fighters. Flight commander Chirino, leading a flight of wyvern lords in a patrol around the dragon carrier detachment’s vicinity, saw the disaster beneath him and was speechless. Out of nowhere, the dragon carriers successively erupted into massive explosions. He decided to have his squad of twelve dragon knights land back at Nishinomiyako.

When his subordinate yelled him that unidentified objects came at the front, he squinted his eyes to saw something that looked like an arrow was coming towards them.

Behind him, big bursts of black smoke appeared. Eight of the dragon knights in his elite squadron were shred into pieces, falling out of the sky. He saw two arrows in front of them quickly. They passed by them high in the sky, so fast they didn’t even have time to think, and only after they were already gone did the sound come. Two red flames came out the rear ends.

The rest of the squadron chased after the arrows, trying to identify what they were. They could not catch up at all. The F-15J Kais suddenly ascended at a speed they couldn’t believe, vanishing into the sky. Then the F-15J Kais turned and pointed back at them, rapidly returning to their position.

The squadron moved to evade it. One of the F-15J Kai's Type 04 AAM-5 struck the wyvern lord that Chirino was riding. He and his men were all hit by air-to-air missiles, blowing them out of the sky.

As the self-proclaimed inheritors of the leftover technologies of the Ravernal Empire, their degree of development is the template that every New World nation wants to emulate.

## Chronology

During the so-called Mythical Era, it was called the "Millicent Continent". It is a major site of activities for the Ravernal Empire, as evidenced by the enormous amounts of ruins that was found throughout the region, which is at the present, being analyzed and used by the First Civilization countries to advance their national power and prestige.

Dall

**Dall** is a dragon knight and commander of the 3rd Wyvern Squadron of the Nigrat Union.

## Chronology

### New World War Arc

In Harunagakyo, the capital of Hinomawari Kingdom, the remaining defenders' morale plummeted upon learning of the destruction brought upon by the four JGSDF AH-64D Apache attack helicopters. When there was no message coming from above the base, Jagner came above the command building and was horrified to learn that all the ambushed positions and the whole Sheen’s assassination units had been destroyed. Seeing the situation was hopeless, Jagner decided to radio the Japanese to signal their surrender. Moments later, Olle Butz, whom the Gra Valkas imperial defenders thought flew just moments before the attack of Japan, recently took off on the Star Cloud passenger plane.

A signal flare went up, signalling the surrender of the Gra Valkas Empire. 3rd Wyvern Squadron commander Dall noticed that the feared Gra Valkas Empire surrendered so readily before Japan. With a flock of wyvern riders from the Nigrat Union flew over the sky, where the anti-aircraft guns were destroyed after being bombed by the Japanese. When the Star Cloud passenger plane approached them, Olle Butz decided to attack them. The moment Dall shouted at Derka to avoid it through the manacomms, the Star Cloud unleashed a hail of bullets. Derka and his wyvern were hit, reducing them to lifeless corpses falling out of the sky.

Soon after, the JGSDF Apache attack helicopters shot down the Star Cloud passenger plane, killing Olle Butz. He couldn’t hold back his rage as the Star Cloud passenger aircraft dispersed in the sky and fell in flames, echoing the darkness that welled up from his soul. However, he couldn’t help but felt furious at his subordinate for being dismissed as a lone figure in the death toll. He had decided to take revenge by attacking the remaining Gra Valkas imperial defenders and the surrounding area in the bases.

Among the wyverns flying in the sky, 120 wyverns began to dive into the capital. They unleashed their flame bullets on the Gra Valkas imperial headquarters, engulfing the building and surrounding its flames. All Gra Valkas imperial personnel, who were in the Subjugation Authority underground command room were killed either through sustaining fatal burns or through suffocation, killing Jagner and 279 Hinomawari civilians due to the relentless attacks of the Nigrat wyverns.

## Chronology

### New World War Arc

In the Great Naval Battle of Baltica, The telegraphist Cyanos, who was aboard on the Hercules-class battleship *Be Tergis*, focused his attention on the communication equipment as not to miss the encrypted communication from the main unit and the radio transmitted at various frequencies.

He heard the voice of the battlefield in the radio frequency band where the aircraft exchanged. A clear radio voice came from the Holy Milishial Imperial aerial battleship Pal Chimera Unit 02 far away from the fleet. He was amazed at the high power radio. The voice, which was clearly spoken, and the unusual situation, he reported promptly and accurately to the commander Kaonia.

Kaonia frequently communicates wirelessly with the main unit, and he picked up the radio without the need for a radio blockade. He asked Meteos, sweating on his forehead to state their affiliation, rank, and name. Meteos warned him to withdraw or destroy it, but Kaonia gave up the radio and hands it to the Cyanos. He told him stupid. Correspondent Cyanos pushed the call button and spoke clearly.

After that, he and the other crews aboard *Be Tergis* died with the drop of Super Large Magic Bomb Jibil from the aerial battleship Pal Chimera Unit 02.
Delius

**Delius** is a dragon kinight and a squadron commander of the 18th Dragon Knights’ 2nd Squadron of the Capital Defense Force of the Parpaldia Empire.

## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldian War Arc

2nd Squadron Commander Delius was on guard in the skies a bit south of the imperial capital Esthirant with twenty wyvern overlords from the 18th Dragon Knights. He was talking to Pecalete, a veteran originally from the 1st squadron, via magic communications about Japan would be using Mu’s aircraft in the last two battles.

Suddenly, their conversation was interrupted by looking over in the direction that the one knight was pointing. They saw a number of specks in the sky. They quickly grew in size, though, which made it clear that they were some kind of flying object.

Delius yelled the order at preternatural speed owing to his intuition screaming “Danger!” when he saw those things coming at the dragon knight squad. The squadron of wyvern overlords dispersed, but the things also changed direction, continuing to pursue them. He was in panic. The missiles, wrapped in shock waves, chased the wyvern overlords. He and his dragon knights died without even letting out a single cry.

The Parpaldia Empire homeland had just become a battlefield for the first time by the Esthirant Air Strike.
Hath Airbase

**Hath Airbase** is an air force base of Mu, located in the southern region of Mu.

## Description

Hath Airbase is situated far south from the capital Otaheit in Mu. The base commander is Yellow.

## Chronology

### New World War Arc

200 large formations of the Guti Maun Heavy Bombers of the Gra Valkas Empire flew in the sky over the Mu Continent, at the air control center of the Hath Airbase in the southern regions of Mu. A female radar operator looked on Mu's brand new search radar, using technologies described in textbooks imported from Japan, managed to detect enemy aircraft from more than 200km away. She spotted the Gra Valkas Imperial Army heading straight for the base 203km away and yelled throughout the base issuing a repeated broadcast that heightened tensions.

The pilots jumped into their parked Marin fighters on the airfield. One by one, the Marin fighters accelerated and took off from the runway, and flew into the sky. Base commander Yellow looked at the Marin fighters flying away. She analyzed on the radar, commencing altitude measurement. She reported to Yellow after completing speed and altitude calculations that the Gra Valkan aircraft were at 14,000m altitude, traveling at more than 700km/h. Yellow was stunned that Marin fighters could not reach that altitude. Moreover, their anti-aircraft guns didn’t even reach that high.

In the face of this overwhelming disparity in capabilities and hopelessness, base commander Yellow could only imagine the sight of the base being one-sidedly destroyed. Unable to steer clear of the impending doom, the personnel of Hath airbase panicked and rushed to mount whatever they could to soften the damage. However, Arley Tolliger on the Guti Maun Heavy Bomber heard the report from the subordinates that there was no sign of Mu's Marin fighters in the high altitude that was wandering far low in circles right below them. Seemingly uninteresting, he threw it away. Their objective was Japan and only Japan. Mu, while exposed to their attack, wasn’t in their sight.
Dwarf

**Dwarves** (ドワーフ, *Dowāfu*) are a short race native to the New World.

## Culture

* King Quila - King of Quila Kingdom
* Kijje - One of the Legendary Four Heroes
* Metsal - Nobleman in the Quila Kingdom, who is equivalent to the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

## Trivia

* In the Manga, a Dwarf is shown to be dressed in a business suit due continued trade between the Principality and Japan.
Diplomacy

**Diplomacy** is the art and practice of conducting negotiations between representatives of states. In the case of Japan, after being transferred, their main goals in diplomacy include economic and foreign relations.

Unlike Earth, the diplomacy of the New World completely voids of international laws and standards as well as any international governing body like the UN to monitor due to the primitive and underdeveloped nature of the New World. This causes diplomacy in the New World to be highly violent, unsavory, and unfair in general, especially between civilized nations and uncivilized nations as well as between countries with better technology and countries with lesser technology in three levels of civilization area: Third, Second and First.

## New World Diplomacy

After being transferred to the New World, Japan immediately realized the imminent danger of starvation among its population. Therefore, establishing foreign and economic relations with the Qua-Toyne Principality and the Quila Kingdom was essential towards Japan's survival. Furthermore, this allowed Japan to gain a foothold in the New World as they would send out many delegates to contact other nations. With the promise of enhancing their own standards of living and technology, most nations outside of the Civilized Areas, found that establishing diplomatic ties with Japan to be very beneficial. Whenever Japan offered its hand in friendship, the other nations would take it.

Unfortunately, Japan's first encounter with the Third Civilization Area, namely the Parpaldia Empire, would end in tragic consequences for both sides. This is where Japan would learn that their conservative-style of diplomacy was seen as weak and that Gunboat Diplomacy was the norm among the Civilized Areas. Instead of accepting Japan's hand of friendship, the Empire pointed a sword at it. The Parpaldians immediately demanded that Japan capitulate to them and slaughtered 200 innocent tourists to prove their point. However, this act would backfire with the near-total devastation of the Parpaldian military and the loss of 73 territories.

Japan would continue to establish ties with other nations, mostly out of economic and international prestige. In order to make sure the incident with Parpaldian Empire never happened again, Japan started to adopt a more forceful style of policy toward potential hostile nations. However, they would again encounter gunboat diplomacy during the Eleven Country Leadership Conference, and the Gra Valkas Empire's declaration of war on the world. With its establishment as the only country that was capable of defeating the Gra Valkas threat, Japan's international standing is nearing its peak, much to the consternation of other nations, such as the Holy Milishial Empire.
Ice Bear

**Ice Bear** is a breed of large magical bear with ice power that resides in the Grameus Continent.

## Background

The ice bears can be found in the Grameus Continent. The origin of the breed is unknown, which perhaps they were among the creatures that altered their bodies by the concentrations of magical power or bred by the Ravernal Empire.

## Appearance

The appearance of Ice Bear is unknown, but the description is still not described in the web and light novel. It believes the ice bear's body is completely covered in magical white frozen.

## History

### Great Race-Demon War Arc

The 1,000 strong soldiers of the last group of the Alliance of the Races called the Demon Lord Extermination Army under Commander Esperanto with Ta Lou, Kenshiva, Luca, and Kijje marched towards the Guradoah in the northeast of the Grameus continent from the Doors of the World. Grameus was a land where monsters and beasts roamed freely, followed by rabid wolves, ice bears, lightning tigers, and poison rabbits. The number of wild beasts had decreased, drastically being replaced by the greater magical beasts and monsters.

Mage Luca warned them that magical beasts, which used magic in their body, were poisonous for them to eat. The problem of food weighs heavily on a 1,000 strong army. It seemed that they’d have to hunt something in the next three days.
Gra Valkas Conquest Office

The name of the governing body of a country or region that has become a colony, lease, or protectorate of the Gra Valkas Empire.

The countries that joined the empire are ordered to build conquest facilities under the guidance of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the empire and to be ready to receive conquest staff.

In some cases, the materials necessary for the construction of the conquest facilities that could not be procured locally were required to be purchased from imperial contractors, an episode that suggests the close relationship between the colonial policy of the empire and various businesses, including construction companies.

## Established Conquest Offices in the New World

### Leifor District

The first established District, whose office is located at the former capital of Leifor, Leiforia. The city was heavily rebuilt with imperial building, stripping off of its former identity and it still bear the scars of the attack done by Grade Atlastar. The treatment of the empire to its residents is harsh.

### Irnetia District

The former Irnetia Kingdom, whose office is located at the capital Kirkulz. They were annexed a few months before the Eleven Country Leadership Conference.

### Hinomawari District

The former Hinomawari Kingdom, whose office is located at the capital Harunaga. The kingdom surrendered and incorporated after the Battle of Baltica.

Fijje is a member of the dwarf race and the great king of the Gua-Chirius Kingdom. He married to Queen Kunika, who is a daughter of King Ijje II of a dwarf kingdom in the Nalverk Valley in the Milishient Continent. He has one son, prince Kijje.

## Chronology

### Mythic Era

Since gold, mithril, and other metals could be mined here, a clan of dwarves had moved in and established a camp at the feet of the Gua-Chirius mountains that extend to the land of Chirius slumbered the “Diamond of Ice.” The clan of dwarves was led by a dwarf named Fijje. By extracting the massive amounts of wealth from the mountains, this clan of dwarves found their spot above the rest of the dwarves and established themselves as the ruling dynasty of a new dwarf kingdom named Gua-Chirius Kingdom. Fijje and Kunika became the king and queen of the Gua-Chirius Kingdom.

### Great Race-Demon War Arc

Before the Demon Lord's Army invaded the Gua-Chirius Kingdom, King Fijje ordered his son Kijje to set out on a journey to cut down trees in the forests to the southwest. When Demon Lord Nosgorath came, the Gua-Chirius Kingdom succumbed to the onslaught of demons. Hope largely vanished when Fijje fought to the bitter end in the valiant fight against the Demon Lord's Army. He was killed by the Demon Lord before his son Kijje arrived.

After his parents' death, Kijje was left all alone as an orphan and the last dwarf in his ruined kingdom to be the sole defender of the land for three years before he joined the Alliance of the Races to fight against the Demon Lord’s Army.
Gunpowder

**Gunpowder**, also known as **black powder** to distinguish it from modern smokeless powder, is the earliest known chemical explosive.

## Description

It consists of a mixture of 10 parts sulfur (S), 15 parts charcoal (C), and 75 parts potassium nitrate (saltpeter, KNO3). The sulfur and charcoal act as fuels while the saltpeter is an oxidizer. Because of its incendiary properties and the amount of heat and gas volume that it generates, gunpowder has been widely used as a propellant in firearms, artillery, rockets, and fireworks, and as a blasting powder in quarrying, mining, and road building.

Gunpowder was invented on Earth in 9th-century China as one of the Four Great Inventions, and spread throughout most parts of Eurasia by the end of the 13th century. Originally developed by the Taoists for medicinal purposes, gunpowder was first used for warfare about 904 AD.

Gunpowder is classified as a low explosive because of its relatively slow decomposition rate and consequently low brisance. Low explosives deflagrate (i.e., burn) at *subsonic* speeds, whereas high explosives detonate producing a supersonic shockwave.

Ignition of gunpowder packed behind a projectile generates enough pressure to force the shot from the muzzle at high speed, but usually not enough force to rupture the gun barrel. Gunpowder thus makes a good propellant, but is less suitable for shattering rock or fortifications with its low-yield explosive power. However, by transferring enough energy (from the burning gunpowder to the mass of the cannonball, and then from the cannonball to the opposing fortifications by way of the impacting ammunition) eventually a bombardier may wear down an opponent's fortified defenses.

Gunpowder was widely used to fill fused artillery shells (and used in mining and civil engineering projects) until the second half of the 19th century, when the first high explosives were put into use. Gunpowder is no longer used in modern weapons, nor is it used for industrial purposes, due to its relatively inefficient cost compared to newer alternatives such as dynamite and ammonium nitrate/fuel oil. Today gunpowder firearms are limited primarily to hunting, target shooting, and bulletless historical reenactments It is also an ingredient for some types of fireworks.

## Weaknesses

The primary weakness of black powder is the amount of smoke it produces, when ignited. In addition to giving away the shooter's position, the cloud can also obstruct vision, thereby reducing accuracy. Napoleonic-type wars often produced battlefields thick with smoke, thereby lowering the probability of hits, plus adding to the confusion as commanders could not see what was going on during combat. Black powder also left more residue in the barrel of the weapon, causing it to foul and jam.
Darth

**Darth** is a captain of the 50-gun ship-of-the-line *Hidel*, the flagship of the Altaran colonial government’s Maritime Defense Unit of the Parpaldia Empire.

## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldian War Arc

When Parpaldia’s five ships-of-the-lines were patrolling the nearby waters near the northeast of Altaras Kingdom, Captain Darth was looking at the communicator. The dragon knight Avis on patrol had been about to say something before the connection got cut off. His signal on the magic detector had also disappeared. Because the knight’s last-known position was very close to where they were now, Darth became very nervous.

The imperial navy crews watched a ship the size of a castle coming over the horizon. He was shocked at how fast the unknown ship moved.

He and his crews saw smoke rise from the front of the ship in the long distance. He felt his ship shake slightly. Immediately following that, the 50-gun ship-of-the-line was engulfed in a pillar of flame, and then it disappeared from the surface of the ocean.

All the Parpaldian warships prepared to engage in combat. He saw the flag that the enemy ship is Japanese. The JMSDF destroyer *Takanami* fired five shells tearing through the Parpaldia Empire’s anti-magic steel-equipped ships-of-the-line, igniting their magazines and turning all five ships into shards of wood and erasing them from the sea. Captain Darth died by explosive in a pillar of flame.

## Trivia

* In the web novel, his name is Daaz.
* Darth does not appear in the manga version, and there is no such depiction in the manga scene. The naval battle scene, including ship-of-the-line *Hidel* on patrol in the seas at the beginning of the Battle of Altaras Kingdom, is skipped.
Douglas

**Douglas** is a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Paganda and the chief of diplomacy.

## Personality

Perhaps Douglas is pride and greed man, such as the snob of the sample that was born in the royal powers of largest protected country, Leifor. Therefore, he wears Leifor's authority and force on his hat and makes an arrogant response.

## Chronology

When Martha reported to Douglas about the Gra Valkas Empire, he decided that the Gra Valkas Empire's diplomatic delegation were uncouth barbarians from outside the civilized world, and demanded an insane amount of bribes. Hilas rejected his ridiculous condition. Furious Douglas executed Hilas in an unfaithful manner, and further showed off to the imperial diplomats.

After Hilas's execution by his hand, this act made Emperor Gralux of Gra Valkas Empire, enraged, and the hard-liners emerged in the Gra Valkas parliament. Forcibly retaliation for the Paganda Kingdom was immediately decided.

Attacked by the overwhelming military power of the Gra Valkas Empire, the Kingdom of Paganda quickly fell and was destroyed in just seven days after the outbreak of the war.

In addition, Leifor was a Paganda’s sovereignty and protection, but launched a war as retaliation that destroyed the Paganda Kingdom. Leiforian fleet was destroyed and Leifor’s capital Leiforia was devastated by single Gra Valkas imperial super-dreadnought battleship *Grade Atlastar* in only 5 days on the Naval Battle of Leifor.

Furthermore, since then, the declaration of war and military aggression on the entire second civilization by the Gra Valkas Empire has caused a great deal of trouble to neighboring countries.

Although the person's fate has not been told, it seems to be one of two reasons: whether Douglas died in the attack of the Gra Valkas army, was found and executed.

## Trivia

* According to the privilege “Sinful of the Country Paganda”, it was said that the amount of payment to individual Douglas was enough to build one dragon carrier.
Core Magic

**Core Magic** is a weapon of mass destruction utilized by the Ravernal Empire in the past.

## Description

Based on the investigation by Japanese archaeologists in the ruins of the Ravernal Empire, inside a hollow stone pillar, a magical detonation device and a round extremely powerful magical core. The device can use explosive magic to wrap the core in explosive pressure from all directions, causing an atomic fission chain reaction and resulting in an extremely high-powered explosive phenomenon. That stone pillar is launched into the air using a magical light discharge-type engine (instead of an air pressure engine), flies through the upper stratum of the atmosphere, then falls straight down on the target country. It might have a range of at least 50,000 kilometers. This is the basic description of how an Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) operates.

The weapon is considered to be "less" devastating than nuclear weapons as it leaves no radiation behind despite the damage dealt is similar to nuclear arsenals and the lack of MIRVs suggests that only a single warhead is on the missile making it unable to hit multiple targets at once.

Based on description alone, Core Magic is an Cold War level ICBM. It's power yield may be a 1-50 megaton in Cold War standards. However, it's range is at least three times further than RS-28 Sarmat, which boasts 18,000km range as the longest ICBM range on Earth.

## History

### Mythical Era

The Ravernal Empire used the Core Magic as its trump card against the Draconian gods during the so-called Dragon Sorcery War, a war between the Ravernal Empire and Infidragoon. The Ravernals managed to destroy Infidragoon cities, making the Dragonfolks desolate and fled the country. When the Ravernal Empire transported their continent to the future, the Dragonfolks would gather once again and established what is now know as Emor Kingdom.

Core Magic was also used against the Black Moon Tribe, which similarly opposed the Ravernal Empire. Just like the Infidragoon, this attack destroyed their country and caused the population to scatter and reform.

## Trivia

* According to Minorou, the blast strength of the Core Magic is equivalent to the nuclear weapons in the 1960s, which means TSAR bomba is included.

Inasa Captain

**Inasa Captain** is an unnamed captain of the Japan Coast Guard patrol ship *Inasa*.

## Appearance

In the manga version, Inasa Captain is a middle-aged gentleman with thick eyebrows. He wears the Coast Guard uniform with a baseball cap.

## Chronology

### Japanese-Parpaldian War Arc

When twenty Parpaldian wyvern lord knights invaded the airspace over the capital Amanoki, Fenn Kingdom during the Military Festival, the captain ordered the crew turning on the patrol ship *Inasa* engine and watched the skies. He had been informed in advance by the Japan Self-Defense Forces that many unidentified aircraft without prior information were approaching. Parpaldian wyvern lords fired on the Inasa. He yelled them to speed engine maximum ahead.

With its engines roaring, the patrol ship *Inasa* quickly accelerated. It avoided the shower of fire blasts one after another. In its wake, the fire blasts hit the ocean. He ordered them to prepare for counterattack where 20mm machine gun aimed up at the sky. Using the image on the screen, they aimed at the flying wyvern lords in the sky, and then fired. In the end, the *Inasa* only hit one of the ten wyvern lords; the injured wyvern lord writhed in pain as blood sprayed from its wounds. Its rider was shaken off and fell into the sea.

When the Inasa was anchored at the Amanoki harbor, he was waiting for the foreign affairs delegation. People at the harbor looked at him and his crew with shining eyes and waved their hands. After the crew waved people back, he saw Shimada and his official group quickly making their way through the harbor to the Inasa and called them starting the engine. However the engine won't start working. The *Inasa* had been attacked by Papaldia’s wyvern lords and took a direct hit from a guided fire blast. Because of that, it appeared the engine would no longer start. There no were technicians, so they didn’t know what to do. Shimada had now arrived, but can’t leave the Fenn Kingdom. He asked the captain to call JSDF towing the patrol ship away, but the captain couldn’t do it because the harbor was too shallow and it couldn’t lift the anchor. He asked him another question what if the JSDF sent a boat to pick us up and we just left the patrol ship here. The captain replied him it depends on the New World Technology Outflow Prevention Act. Then, his thought made another way to sink it, but the captain wouldn’t allow it where they docked at a port in the capital of another country. They continued bickering over ideas, but, in the end, the *Inasa* still couldn’t move. Shimada lacked the authority to come to a decision.
HEAT Round

The **HEAT** or **H**igh **E**xplosive **A**nti-**T**ank Round is a type of shaped-charge explosive that uses the Munroe Effect to penetrate thick tank armor. It was used to great effect in the New World.

## Description

The HEAT round is a type of ammunition, normally used by tanks to defeat other tanks or lightly-armored vehicles and fortified structures. HEAT rounds use explosive firepower, rather than momentum, to penetrate armor. At its nose, the round has an extended impact sensor. When the impact sensor collides with a target, it ignites an explosive, which melts surrounding copper. A shape charge liner concentrates the molten metal and hot gases into a narrow blast that cuts through the armor.This also extends into the interior of the vehicle, causing heavy damage and casualties

## Countermeasures

Presently, HEAT rounds are not as effective against modern composite tank armor or Explosive Reactive Armor (ERA). The reason for this is that composite tank armor possesses ceramic plates, which can diffuse and degrade the jet blast. ERA is effective due to exploding on contact, thereby diverting the jet blast away from the interior of the vehicle. As a result, HEAT rounds are more often used against lightly-armored vehicles and fortified structures rather than as a tank-buster.

## HEAT Round in the New World

### Rodenius War

HEAT Rounds were first used during the Pacification of Jin-Haag in the Louria Kingdom as a literal bunker-buster. They easily broke down the massive timber and iron gate of the main castle.

### Operation Momotarou

During the said mission, the JGSDF's Special Advanced Platoon's Type-10 used HEAT round to destroy the Ancient Kaiser Golem.

### New World War

During the Battle of the Malmund Mountains, the 7th Division of the JGSDF used SABOT rounds at first, against the Hound Medium Tanks of the 4th Armored Division of the Gra Valkas Empire. The SABOT rounds proved to be overkill as they sliced through the thin armor of the tanks and passed clean through them. The JGSDF then switched to HEAT rounds to destroy the tanks more efficiently.
Hagama

**Hagama** is a lord of the eastern in the Qua-Toyne Principality and the head of the Maihark’s city government.

## Chronology

### Short Story: Ine Travels to Japan

Commander Ine of the Maihark Defense Knights was summoned by the military general staff to visit the residence of Lord Hagama. Entering the study, she exchanged greetings with Lord Hagama and then cut straight to the discussion. He informed her that it had been decided to send ambassadors of goodwill to Japan in order to introduce to them the Qua-Toyne Principality’s culture and military. It was also decided among the nobility that a group of people visiting Japan on behalf of them would be formed. He considered Ine to join them since she was of noble birth and a young woman knight. She accepted it.

Lord Hagama supervised the banquet to which the JSDF were invited and even mingled with Lt. General Ouchida Kazuki. At the time, he heard Ouchida speaking highly of Ine, so he purposefully went ahead to select her for the ambassador mission.

Unaware of this, Ine, on behalf of the Maihark Defense Knights and Keith, who was also of noble descent, were picked to go on the mission of goodwill to Japan.
Audigs

**Audigs** is a section chief of the Superpowers Department of the Country of Mu’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

## Personality

Audigs is in charge of negotiations with the powers of this world, which is a very high position. He is also in charge of negotiations with Japan, which is recognized as a real power.

## Chronology

### New World War Arc

After the destruction of the aerial battleship Pal Chimera Unit 01, the World Union digested its losses in the Great Naval Battle of Baltica and the Gra Valkas Empire shifted resources to a ground invasion of Mu. Chief Audigs arrived at the Japanese embassy in Mu. He determined to push through with the negotiations, knocked on the door of the Japanese embassy. Japanese Diplomat Misono has decided to host Audigs for his request to have the meeting.

In a conference room, Audigs exchanged greetings with Misono, sitting on the opposite side. Audigs began to talk with a request for Japan that Arou in Mu’s northwest plateau was situated 20 kilometers from the national border with the former Leifor. According to extremely reputable information at hand, the Gra Valkas Imperial Army was amassing at the border town Arou. Misono was shocked by the declaration of war and the possibility of a land invasion.

Audigs explained to him what happened in the naval battle at Baltica and at Cartalpas, in which Mu was being one-sidedly defeated and they had also overwhelmingly cornered the Holy Mirishial Empire, sinking even their final resort, the aerial battleship. Before Mu fought in this war, only a handful of people, engineers, and others insisted that the threat posed by the Gra Valkas Empire was massive. When Gra Valkas Empire invaded, they certainly won’t stop at Arou. They would march throughout the continent, repeating what they might do in Arou to the rest of the country. In the end, Mu didn’t have the power to stop them.

He asked Misono that Mu had only one request: aid in the form of military reinforcements. The country of Mu begged for military reinforcements that could effectively push out the Gra Valkas Empire from the Second Civilization Area. Misono was overwhelmed by Audigs’s overflowing ardor. Choosing his next words, he begins to speak Audigs that Mu was Japan's most important friends and allies. He expedited Mu's request to the government as fast as possible. However, if he might offer his personal opinion, Japan had various legal limitations regarding armed response when it came to Mu's request, especially with some of its more difficult parts. Audigs knew that he must do whatever it takes to pull Japan into the defense of the fatherland, which was veering close to being in a life or death situation. He knew that he couldn’t just give up Mu’s fate so easily.

Audigs lowered his head deeply in front of the Japanese foreign affairs officials and begged them the decision to send aid. He had even come to let go of his pride for the sake of saving the fatherland. Misono would settle his request as fast as possible and then send it to Japan government.

The conference ends. Misono hastened to gather and compile information on the request.

To make sure his daughter Kunika escaped the fires of the conflict, he sent her to the Philades continent, where she would meet Fijje and have her son Kijje later down the road for the Gua-Chirius mountains that extend to the land of Chirius slumbered the “Diamond of Ice.”
Gra Valkas Advanced Technology Laboratory

## Advanced Technology Laboratory

The **Advanced Technology Laboratory** is a department of the Gra Valkas Empire's military and is tasked with developing new technologies and to counter enemy weaponry.

## Noted Members

* Naguano - an officer of the Information Technology Department who studies the technologies of the other New World Nations and Japan's guided missiles.
* Kandal - first-class engineer of the Advanced Technology Laboratory and a classmate of Naguano.

## History

Shortly before the Gra Valkas Empire was transferred to the New World, the Guti Maun high-altitude bomber was developed, along with its superchargers to allow its engines to function in the stratosphere. It is very likely these were developed by the Advanced Technology Laboratory. Additionally, they have attempted to create a jet fighter, but the project was canceled due to high cost. They are also trying to develop rotary-wing aircraft, and they admitted that Japan is ahead of them.

While researching the capabilities of the New World nations, Naguano would come across books and documentation that described not only the Gra Valkas' weapons in shockingly accurate detail, but also Japanese guided missile technology. His superiors took serious concern with the leak of classified information about their weapons, but dismissed the claims of Japanese weapons as propaganda. His former classmate of the Gra Valkas Imperial University, Kandal, would take Naguano's findings seriously and began working on countermeasures against the infrared and radar guidance systems of the weapons. However, their efforts would result in catastrophic failure. Due to a lack of understanding of how those guidance systems worked, and assuming that missile technology had not advanced since their introduction, the Advanced Technology Laboratory would go on to build the anti-missile jammer. This was a device that would throw up a huge amount of flares and chaff, in order to divert a missile away from a ship, should the ship's anti-aircraft batteries fail to shoot the missile down. However, these measures proved to be too primitive to fool the Type 93 ASM-2 Anti-ship Missile. Furthermore, neither the Advanced Technology Laboratory nor the navy crews understood that flares and chaff were used differently on ships than on aircraft and other platforms. The First Advanced Fleet was obliterated save for 9 destroyers and the anti-missile jammer was deemed as a failure.

## Noted Inventions

* Jet Engine - Cancelled
* Rotary-winged aircraft - On-going development
* Anti-missile jammer - Deemed as a failure
* Supercharger - Equipped on the Guti Maun high-altitude bombers
* Infrared Detection - At theoretical stage
