Season of Start, Day 22 320 NA

Emperor's Castle, Gran Lars Imperium.

"With the ongoing war in the southern part of the fourth civilization we don't have to worry about the interference of the holy kingdom to our plans anymore, your majesty."

Emperor Marcius Nile Gran Lars, ponder as he listened to his military advisors.

"Good. With this we can finally unite the whole northern continent."

He then glanced over the paintings of the previous emperors of the kingdom.

"For generations the imperial family tried to unite the entire continent, however all of them failed thanks to the demi-humans traitors." He sighed. "Speaking of demi-humans, what the situation on the north?"

A reporter replied. "The extermination of the demi-humans in the north is going well, thanks to Margrave Vin's effort with the help of Commander Elias of the 9th Army Division, we expect to neither killed or captured the majority of the demi-humans, though there are some able to escape, but considering their numbers, they are not a threat."

Emperor Marcius sighed in relief. "Excellent. Now, onto the most important one. The Alfrein Kingdom. For the unification we must defeat Alfrein first."

"We don't have to worry about the Alfrein for now, your majesty. Although they have superior numbers of magicians, we have better equipment and much larger number of soldiers, however we must not underestimate them. Therefore, I suggest to make an alliance with the Ainhart Empire. As we all know, they are a superpower nation and are currently at war with the holy kingdom. Based on the information we gathered the empire is at advantage, and seems to win the war. Therefore before it's too late, we must now make an advance diplomatic affiliations with Ainhart Empire."

Emperor Marcius pondered. "Hoo~. Interesting. But I guess your right too. If the empire wins the war, they can even perhaps be on par of a third civilization upper class countries. Alright, send our diplomats to the Ainhart Empire. As for the demi-humans, I wanted them to be fully subjugated soon."

Advisors replied in unison. "Understood, your majesty!"

===

Exhausted, Sick and hungry hordes or demi-humans marched as they flee the mass extermination of their kin. Every tribe has been attacked by the human soldiers of the Gran Lars Imperium.

With the lack of equipment and warriors, the demi-human society fell and now seeking for a new refuge.

"This is hopeless! If we continue to the north we may be safe from the Imperium but the magical beasts and monster will feast on us!"

"...We don't have a choice either. If we go back we'll be killed and enslaved...our kin must survive..."

Loud slam was heard inside the small tent with a desk.

"Fighting won't help us. We need an immediate plan, the humans are nearing us. Both of you are right, wether we go north nor go back, cruel fate awaits us. If that's the case then...at least being a slave has food and little shelter."

Everyone in the tent was bewildered. "What are you talking about Chief!? Are saying that it's better to be enslave by those humans!?"

"We don't have any more choices! It's just between be killed or be killed later! Our kin already hit the wall and on our back are our exterminators! So do you have a better plan!?"

Everyone in the room was silent, hid their frustrations to themselves. 

"...If we're just going to be slave, then can we perhaps look for a place to refuge as serfs? Who knows they might treat us better..."

The chief of the demi-humans chuckled. "Are you serious? Treat us better? There's no one in this world would accept us demi-humans, they saw our kin as filth, for them we are strange creatures."

The young demi-human face turned gloomy.

The chief sighed. "This is hopeless" he muttered. "Understood, send some of our elite warriors in the capital, look for anyone whose willing to took us as their serf."

The young mad cheered up a little. "Thank you, chief."

The chief waved his hand. "Now go. Pack some food for yourselves and little amount of coin."

After the young demi-human exited the room, the elders questioned their chief's decision.

"Are you out of your mind!?"

"We're short in warriors right yet you'll send them there?"

The chief yelled. "SHUT UP! Even if we not allow him our fate won't change, right now we're just hoping for an impossible to happen and like I was telling you before, if any one of you here has a better then spit it out now!"

Everyone was once again silent, the elders stood from their position and begun to exit the tent.

"Haah...O' goddess of light...please bring even a small amount of salvation to my kin..."

City of Basilik

The citizens of Basilik hastily packed their belongings and hurriedly ran out of the city, it was unprecedented to them, as the imperial warships begun to bomb the city walls to oblivion.

"Fast! Fast! Faster! Hurry before the imperials comes here!" Viscount Kremlin Adamantant helps his local soldiers and knights as they evacuate the citizens.

A soldier running towards him spokes. "Milord! Lord Kremlin! Bad news, the imperial soldiers already crossed the walls! The 4th Army can't hold them for long!"

Viscount Kremlin clenched his fists. "Send the 2nd and 3rd troop to help the army, as for the rest we need them to evacuate the people."

The soldier nodded. "Understood!" 

...

Long lines of people walks and came to a stop on a nearby hill, they sat on the ground as they witness their city engulfed in flame. Today's battle was devastating for the holy kingdom.

The people of Basilik cries as the city where they were born and raised, is now fully occupied by the imperial soldiers.

The wyvern battalion tried to repel the warships however was failed. The warship was made of iron, something that can be only seen in high class civilizations, and this was an eye opener for then to how just powerful the Ainhart Empire is.

===

Captain Ares Malaca gaze on the horizon using his spyglass. On the hills he saw the people of the city of Basilik who evacuated as they occupy the city. Thanks to the firepower and cooperation of the air force, they have successfully occupied Basilik.

"Hmmp, this is what happens to those who oppose us, now sooner or later the Fredericana Holy Kingdom will be no more than a puppet for his majesty the emperor."

He then turned around, on top of the city wall, he observe the soldiers as they fortified the city, they were ordered to stay for the 'opportunity' to come.

"Reporting to the Captain!"

A soldier stood in front of him and hold over to him a letter. He opened it and read it's content.

It was a letter that came from the headquarters.

The letter states that Captain Ares and his platoon together with some other officers was ordered to travel to the south, an operation will be conducted and apparently the military division in the region requests more men.

He glanced to his soldiers. "Tell the platoon to pack their things and prepare to travel south tomorrow."

"Yes, Captain!"

Captain Ares sighed. "I hope this will end soon."

Colony of Sol, New Terra

It's been a few days since the team of professionals arrived at Sol, using a much more larger ship, which is the newly built NTS-Manila Multirole Destroyer along with three more ships which are NTS-Washington Carrier Class, NTS-Berlin General Cargo Class and NTS-London a stealth submarine armed with American designed missiles and radar system.

These ships are the first ships produced by the interim government with the cooperation of various professionals and engineers from the Yamato Heavy Industries who luckily survived the bug attacks, they are being employed by the government for the new project of mass producing ships and missile projects.

Port master Ulbert observe the metal beasts on the horizon, it's not just him but almost everyone in Sol gathered at the port to observe the scene, unfortunately they were now just serfs because their previous lord sold them. Thankfully the New Terrans was not cruel as they thought they would be, in fact they informed the people that they will not be treated as slaves as long as they follow their laws. At first everyone was suspicious, however after some time being with them, the Terrans treated the sick, gave food and clothing to those who have nothing and slaves who are 'broken' went under 'surgeries' and 'rehabilitation'.

Now their new government is offering job for makes and females for the reconstruction of the port, there would be a big amount of salary for those who applies and free food, shelter and medical care.

The New Sol's Capitol that was just recently built was flooded by the people who wanted to take the offer.

Ulbert felt very assured and safe, he never felt like this before, he smiles and his attention was turned to his daughter who called her.

"Father! Mother said dinner is ready!"

He observes his daughter who was previously bedridden and thin, thanks to the help of sir Hans his daughter and wife fully recovered from their sickness.

"Okay, I'll be going now!"

A two story white palace with a flag of blue and globe like object (The flag of the interim government is similar to UN where earth is the symbol).

Lines of people who wanted to be recruited patiently wait to be interviewed.

Po, Fer and Can are ones of those who are hoping to get the job, they belong to the race of minotaur, they are tall, muscular and have two horns, they are many of their race came down from the mountains to pledge their loyalty to their new master.

Their chief is Can and now he and his trusted men hopes to get a job, their tribe are starving due to the previous lord's misdeeds.

After a while, finally it's Can's turn to be interviewed.

"Next!"

Can entered the lord's office, he need to lower his head because of his height.

The lord who is reading some sort of smooth paper gestures to him to sit down on a sofa, he was worried that the sofa might be destroyed due to his weight, but the lord insist.

The lord glanced to Can's figure.

"Name?"

"...Uh, Can."

"Can huh...what's your previous profession?"

Can was puzzled. "Umm... I'm the Minotaur chief..."

"Oh, I understand. Now, why do you need this job?"

"Uh-I need money to provide food for my tribe."

"I see. You look strong, I guess your a perfect for this job, can I ask how many of your kin is going to apply?"

"About a hundred or less..."

....

....

After a few minutes of questioning, Can got the job and what's more his whole tribe was also accepted, it seems the lord needs vast amount of manpower.

It's dusk now and people begun to walk to their perspective homes, in this time it's dangerous walking because bandits usually kidnaps healthy looking and beautiful people, but it's bright because of these 'street lights' there are also soldiers with some weird armour and weapons patrolling the town.

Can and his tribe men spend their night in a public tent where people whose home is far can sleepover.

Capital City Auroraborealis, New Terra.

Ars sighed as he read the content of the reports from the various departments. The reconstruction of their newly acquired colony Sol went smoothly, now they just need to catch Sol's outlaws, a operation plan is already settled and just waiting for the right time to be conducted.

There are 12 ships that was just recently built, four of them are on Sol while the rest patrols the seas of New Terra, there are four carriers which are American designed but modified, it now has two launching deck and missile defense system, the rest are mostly destroyers and frigates.

The technology department requests month of rest due to the rush of building the ship that exhausted both employees and their materials.

A new missile project was also conducted to make ICBM, many suggested to just use XIS-Armstrong to bomb potential enemies, even Ars is in favor, however there's a shortage of power cells although some facilities and reactors built to solve the problem, it wasn't nearly enough for the whole fleet, therefore making ICBM was suggested.

Ars glanced through the window of the palace. "So peaceful. I hope nothing bad happens."

However unbeknownst to them, a problem will occur a couple of weeks from now.

===

A/N: This was supposed to be released yesterday, however I have a bad health so I just slept whole day. Thankfully I finished it this time. I'm also planning to add pictures for reference in the next chapters just to give you all ideas about the New Terra's weapons and the natives.
