Yes, we think it might be the Resistance, but we are investigating.
A muscular man in his late 30s with a large sword at his waist.
His beard is neatly trimmed, and he has a background in martial arts.
He is the embodiment of what it means to be a soldier, and is known as Sieg Sylphid, the God of War.
Seig was reporting in front of the video.
What is taking so long for the god of war? Ten aircraft, how much do you think they cost!
The communication was with a top military officer from the home country.
Under the command of RHode, we will conduct an operation to exterminate the Resistance.
Oh, that sounds interesting. Ill go with you.
On the other end of the line is a woman.
Her long golden hair reaches down to her waist.
At first glance, she looks like the personification of a beautiful princess.
However, when Seig heard the report of her, he couldnt stop sweating.
This is because her name is Asgar Yumir.
She was one of the first princesses and rulers with the two names of the Torture Princess.
Master Yumir is coming. This will cause a massacre
Sieg is the head of the resident army in the area.
However, as long as they dont act conspicuously, he basically leaves third-class citizens alone.
The main reason is that the country has only been occupied for a short period, but the resistance in this country is overwhelmingly larger than in other colonies.
This is because Seig has not carried out armed extermination.
Kill everyone who opposes you, no questions asked.
That is imperial philosophy, but Sieg has not taken that action.
It was due to his kindness. But he remained so because the emperor was ill at the moment, and there was no particular blame to be laid on him.
Thats all I have to report.
Thats right.Seig.
? Im sorry?
Its your daughter, Reina and you. Weve got a special model for her.
I see, thank you very much. Im sure it will be extremely useful.
Well be counting on you, father and daughter.
The communication then ended.
Reinas aircraft has arrived. Reina is going to the battlefield too. Then I must make up my mind as well.
Seig mumbles to himself in his room.
It seems that the time limit is already near.
Im sorry, Sakiko. I may not be able to protect this country by myself anymore.
***
Several days later, Dad, whats wrong?
Seig and Ice Princess Reina having breakfast.
The Sylphides were not originally nobles. However, Sylphids contribution to the army made them barons.
No, Its nothing. I just wanted to ask you something.
I beg your pardon?
Its a bit clerical for a family conversation.
Thats understandable, because Reina was adopted.
I took you in when you were ten years old and gave you all kinds of education, and you must have practised KOG for two years already.
Yes.
Reina never had the chance to talk to her busy father, except for breakfast.
She does not remember playing with him much, or even laughing with him, as in a normal family.
She understands that this is because she was adopted.
Even so, she respected Seig as a father and trusted him enough to say that she liked him.
I dont dislike my father, no matter how busy he is. He always tries to make this time every morning as much as possible, and I even want to surpass him in KOG one day.
I thought there was no one stronger than you in your age group, even in our home country, but I heard you lost
!? .where did you hear that..?
That day, Instructor Alfred learned from the simulators records that Reina had been defeated.
In the battle to determine the ranking, he had reported to Sieg that there was a Kenya Mitsurugi who could win even with the handicap system maximized.
Is that true?
yes, sorry.
Was he strong?
Yes, very..
More than me?
Thats I dont know.
Hm, you dont know?
Seig thought.
What Reina meant when she said she didnt understand.
Ive never shown my depths to my daughter. I have a mock battle with Reina once a month, and Ive never lost or even struggled once.
That Reina, who knows what he is capable of, is unsure.
What it means.
Bottomless? Interesting okay! Bring him tonight.
What? But hes a second-class?
I know that. I just want to see what kind of man he is. You know Im not a racist.
I understand.
Seig does not discriminate.
Reina does not discriminate because of her parents influence.
Why does Seig not discriminate?
Reyna does not know the reason.
However, he has publicly stated that he is a meritocracy, as publicly stating that he does not discriminate would be a criticism of the royal family.
Therefore, although there are many Japanese in the resident forces, it does not stop them from discriminating even within the military.
***
What? To Reinas father!
Yes, Dad wants to see you.
Kaguya, Reina and Kenya were practicing KOG after school today.
So how about dinner tonight?
Is that okay?
Papa is like me, he doesnt discriminate against nonsense.
Hes the head of the military, but he certainly had the image of a great military man.
So, is that okay?
Okay.
Hes in the army, so he cant say no. What the hell does he want, has he found out were in the Resistance?
Hey, youve got to deal with one of them soon. Im getting a good grip now.
Well, shall we go? Kaguya.
Im going to let you win today, Reina.
The three of them have shared this voluntary after-school practice together several times since then.
At first, She clashed with Reinas blunt words.
However, Kaguya gradually came to understand that Reina only sees Kaguya herself without any prejudice or discrimination.
And she doesnt call herself second class or anything like other Empire people, but always calls her by her name.
I dont like Empire people, but I couldnt dislike Reyna.
Youve really become good friends.
I can understand now what Kenya-kun said before. Shes getting stronger.
Pulled by two of the strongest levels, the originally gifted Kaguya progressed in a flash.
Like with everything, if you practice at a high level, you improve quickly.
Then being able to practice with Kenya and Reina every day would be the best environment.
In the upcoming Ranking order test, Im going to beat them all.
With that said, the two of them got into the simulator.
However, she is still not even close to Reina, so she fails miserably.
Alright then, Reina. You want to have a go with me?
Todays the day, Ill at least knock it down ten points.
Thatll be fun to see, If you can, that is.
Reina has grown stronger.
But Kenya has even become stronger.
Coming to this world, the KOG he loved so much turns into a life-saving weapon.
This determination pushes Kenya to the next stage.
There is a saying that talent is the depth of concentration.
Kenyas concentration has reached even deeper since coming to this world.
His growth has surpassed even Reinas and Kaguyas, and the gap between them is widening overwhelmingly.
The difference in resolve, the resolve of Kenya, who killed a man on a recent mission and knew the weight of risking his life, became incomparably stronger.
And it was when he was about to board the simulator.
Do you mind if I watch the game?
Hmm?
One student suddenly entered the simulator room.
Blonde hair, a little long for a man.
The boy with blue eyes is about the same age as Kenya and the others.
He is a boy that we see every day, but we have never spoken to him.
Because.
Ro-, Your Highness Rhode!
A member of the family that rules this world.
The second prince of the Empire.
