Empress.

On this day, the world's two moons will block out the sun at noon, creating a solar eclipse.

This was also the closest the Great Sky Island, formerly home to the Albion Kingdom and now the Kingdom of Regen Zista, had ever been to the Tristain Kingdom.

Hundreds of magical airships, each carrying six or seven hundred people, flew in from the northwest sky.

This is the 70,000-strong army of the Kingdom of Regan Zista.

They rained down from the azure sky onto the verdant lawn, with the distant Siesta homeland where Professor Colbert, Louise, and the others discovered the 'Dragon's Hagoromo'.

Tarub Village!

General Ivoni, clad in purple armor and with a long sword at his waist, strode over with heavy steps, looking at the beautiful woman before him with flowing green hair and gold-rimmed glasses.

"Lady Magiruda, according to the scouts, that village is completely uninhabited; they clearly moved out beforehand!"

Previously, Cromwell had two main right-hand men, one of whom was Wardes, who had infiltrated the Tristain Kingdom as the commander of the Griffin Magic Guard.

Another one is Magiruda, who infiltrated the Tristain Academy of Magic as the Dean's secretary, and is also an earth mage who has reached the 'Triangle' level.

Since Wardes's arrest, Magiruda has become a favorite of the current governor, Lord Sheffield.

How could they have known our movements in advance?

Magiruda glanced around at the airspace with a puzzled look.

The Tristain Kingdom did not possess magical airships, and they did not see any of the enemy's Griffin riders upon arrival. So how did the enemy manage to 'locate' and 'send messages'?

"I'm sorry, I'm also puzzled by this, but even if they know, it doesn't matter. With our military strength and capabilities, we can wipe Tristain off the map before the troops from other kingdoms arrive!"

General Ivoni spoke with his chest out and head held high, his face full of a confident smile.

"Alright, then I'll leave the command to you."

Magiruda. She knew very well that she had no military command ability, so she only needed to be responsible for keeping the enemy's high-level mages occupied and entangled.

"Yes!"

General Ivoni agreed.

At the same time.

Squads of armored soldiers flowed down from the landing magic spaceships like a stream, gradually merging together to form a vast, dark sea of people.

In the air.

Ten magical warships, each with a dark, breech-loading rifled cannon protruding from both sides, spread out in formation like a shower of flowers, accompanied by magical dragon knights riding Fire Dragon.

Soon.

Under General Ivoni's command, a well-organized human legion emerged on the plains between the mountains.

The vanguard consisted of a legion of human infantry and a monster legion composed of trolls, Goblins, and other monsters.

The central army consisted of cannon corps pulled by men and horses, and archer corps on both sides.

The rear guard was a magic legion composed of mages wielding long staffs.

To the left and right of the main army were squads of cavalry, both men and horses clad in heavy armor, gripping sharp spears.

In addition, there were magic fleets and dragon knight units high in the sky.

All of these elements combined to form this massive and spectacular army of magical beings.

This scene was witnessed by the Prince of Wales, Princess Henrietta, Fleet Admiral Grammont, and others, who were observing from several kilometers away using 'farsight' magic.

Behind them stood the equally orderly ranks of the Tristain Kingdom's army.

However, this scale is rather small compared to others, totaling only about 10,000 people, and there are no magical spaceships to protect the airspace above.

The Griffin riders remained on the ground to conserve their energy and await orders to engage in battle.

"The gap is really big, Captain. Are you sure we shouldn't step in and help?"

Levi, riding his warhorse in the corner, watched the dark silhouette of the army slowly emerge on the horizon, then turned to Biba Amatori in front of him and asked.

Horobi and Mr. Hugh, who were standing nearby, also turned their attention to the latter.

Chelsea was not far away, also on horseback guarding Louise, while Saito Hiraga was nowhere to be seen.

"The more desperate the situation, the more it can unleash potential and reveal hidden methods."

Biba Amatori smiled dismissively, "We only need to protect the Prince of Wales, Princess Henrietta, and Louise. We'll set things right when things really get too difficult here."

His confidence in saying and doing so stems, of course, from their strength.

Although 70,000 troops seem like a lot, it wouldn't be difficult for us to suppress them once we set out.

Moreover, it's not necessary to kill everyone; you only need to control the enemy's leader.

Seeing that Biba Amatori had said that, Levi didn't say anything more and patiently looked forward to the upcoming magical battle in Otherworld.

He was very curious.

How do the Prince of Wales and his men plan to bridge the 60,000-strong troop gap?

But as I looked at it, I became somewhat disappointed.

Princess Henrietta and her companions simply wanted to use the hillside and the walls and fortresses built by the earth mages to hold off Regan Zista's army as much as possible, and then wait for reinforcements from other kingdoms and duchies to arrive.

It's not entirely wrong to do this; after all, it's a battle of 10,000 against 70,000. To launch an offensive would be suicidal.

But this is meaningless.

However, neither side in a war is playing around; survival and winning the battle are the only objectives.

"Prepare for artillery fire!"

"Prepare for artillery fire!"

"Prepare for artillery fire!"

The army of the Kingdom of Regan Zista halted its advance just outside the range of Tristain's attack. The vanguard then parted to the left and right, allowing the artillery units in the center to push cannons, which were mounted on wagons, forward.

Seeing this scene...

Levi couldn't help but complain again, "Seriously, it's one thing to not have magic warships, but why isn't there a single cannon here?"

Pity.

Biba Amatori and the others were unable to answer his question.

Soon.

The booming sound of cannons rang out.

Suddenly, a series of glowing black shells flew through the sky, crashing heavily against the seemingly solid earthen wall with sharp whooshing sounds, creating bursts of explosions and flames.

Take this opportunity.

Regan Zista's archer unit advanced under the cover of the large shields of the vanguard Army troops.

Then stand up, bend the bow, and nock the arrow.

[Buzz------]

In Setsuna, the bowstring vibrated, and arrows shot into the sky.

Against the backdrop of two moons, one large and one small, slowly approaching the sun, a dense 'cloud' formed and loomed over Tristain's position.

"Activate defensive magic!!"

Fleet Admiral Grammont's amplified roar echoed across his own battlefield.

Soon, the surrounding magic knights hurriedly activated their respective elemental defensive spells.

"The stone wall rises!"

"Water Shield Technique!"

"Tornado is blowing!"

Even the boys like Guiche Malicorne, who hadn't yet graduated from the Magic Academy, were pale-faced, but they desperately used their best magic to save their lives.

"Bronze Puppet Val'cree!"

With a powerful wave of his wand, Guiche sent pink rose petals fluttering down from the sky. The moment the petals touched the ground, they transformed into bronze puppets wielding steel spears.

These bronze figures were incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, they flew into the Vice Admiral and intercepted the falling arrows.

After a volley of arrows...

Four of the bronze figures were struck by several arrows and turned into mud and disappeared.

Before everyone could catch their breath, huge fireballs, burning fiercely like meteorites, followed closely from the sky, interspersed with cannonballs.

The successive waves of long-range attacks made Biba Amatori's expression turn serious; he had somewhat underestimated the war power of this world.

"Horobi! You go protect Princess Henrietta! Levi, you protect the Prince of Wales!"

"Let's go now!"
