The border between the Republic of Libertas and the Comanche Kingdom.
The Elondil Empire’s legion of elves was crossing over from the Comanche Kingdom.
“Welcome. I am Crown Prince Aruka Comanche.”
Crown Prince Aruka Comanche of the Comanche Kingdom greeted the commander of the legion of elves.
“It is a pleasure to meet you, Marquis Arondir.”
“You must have had a hard journey, Marquis.”
“No, it is an honor just to be able to go to war against the Chaos.”
At that moment, a man with red hair and dragon eyes stepped forward from behind Marquis Arondir.
“Ah! This is Drake ‘Eugnil,’ who has come with us this time.”
“Oh, oh! I am honored to meet a drake, the guardians of the world.”
A Drake, who hides the form of a dragon and is granted the qualification to protect the world in place of the dragons. Drakes, who use dragon language magic in the 8th circle, were strong enough to face off against a baron or viscount-class demon.
In particular, there were those among the Drakes who had been given names by dragons, and they were even stronger because they possessed fragments of the Dragon Heart along with their names.
“How far has the Chaos advanced?”
“First of all, they have advanced as far as the Medford territory in the west.”
“What about the east?”
“The lords in the east have strong forces, so they are still holding out.”
The lords of the east, who had turned a blind eye to the advance of the west, belatedly regretted their misjudgment . . . but it was already too late. If they had at least limited the battlefield to the western territories, it would have been fine, but they had not done so because they wanted to contain the Comanche lords in the west, and in the end their own territories had become the battlefield.
“Then we will have to go west first.”
At Eugnil’s words, Marquis Arondir nodded and ordered the legions of the Elondil Empire to advance to the western territory of Medford. After that, the crown prince met with Archduke Malekis, the dark elf commander of the Sahara Empire, and exchanged greetings.
“It has been a long time, Your Highness.”
“Master, it is not a happy occasion to meet again in such circumstances, but I am glad to see you nonetheless.”
Archduke Malekis, who was also Crown Prince Aruka Comanche’s swordsmanship teacher. He was the Grandmaster of the Sahara Empire and an 8th-circle magic swordsman. Some people called him the Sorcerer King, but he respectfully declined the title. This was because there was already someone who held the title of ‘Sorcerer King.’
He resided in the ancient fortress of Morgen, located in the snowy mountains north of the Dragon Mountains, and was also known by the alias ‘Lord of Morgen.’ It was said that he had survived since before the Age of Demons, and he was also called the teacher of all black wizards after the Age of Demons.
A human who had transcended being human . . . because of that, he had clashed with Pluto’s Champions several times, but since he was a being with the power of an ancient dragon, he was not an easy opponent even for a Champion.
Of course, since he had not been active for over 200 years . . . the world had almost forgotten about him. He was only known among black wizards.
“Your skills have improved a lot.”
“Yes, I had the opportunity to attain enlightenment and became a Sword Master.”
“Where is the most critical place?”
“Of course, it is the west.”
“The high elves must have already moved.”
“Yes, that is right.”
“Then where do you want me to go?”
“Please go to the Nevada Desert. Isn’t the desert the home ground of the dark elves?”
Aruka said, looking at the dozens of huge monsters, sandworms, that were visible behind him.
“Hahaha, very well. The desert is the home ground of us dark elves. Then may the magic of Isis dwell within you.”
Isis.
A god with the same hierarchy as the Sun God Azir and the Creator God Chronos, who is not included in the Nine Divines and is therefore treated as a heresy.
He is also the origin of the magic that all living beings in the world now use, and when Century was created, he received a call from Chronos and was able to influence this world in exchange for designating the dragon race as the guardians of this world.
“May the glory of magic be with you . . . . . . ”
The forces led by Archduke Malekis headed straight north towards the Nevada Desert.

“They have arrived.”
The fleet of the Imperial Empire that filled the sea off Lisbon. The battleships based on the New York-class USS Texas were now called the Heinrich-class. There were as many as 20 of them.
In addition, 100 large transports equipped with internal combustion engines were successively docking at the port of Lisbon. With a crew of 200 and a space expansion spell, they could carry 1,000 landing troops and 30 Tiger tanks.
In addition, there was a runway with a space expansion spell on the deck, and about 20 IMP-1 Kaiser monoplane fighters of the Naval Air Corps were on standby. It could be considered almost an aircraft carrier-class transport.
Despite the fact that the port of Lisbon was very large, it took a lot of time to load the troops since it was full with only 10 transports.
“I wish I could fill every one of those transports with Tiger tanks.”
Although there was enough space to carry 30, they could not fill it all with Tiger tanks because they also had to carry ammunition.
“Even so, you are taking a tank force of one division with you, aren’t you? You should be satisfied with that.”
