When I Fell Madly in Love With the Heroine, the World Changed. - Chapter 74

Time to the present.

To the time when a boy forged his destiny and his friend became an emperor.

“I will fight, from the World Federation. They have declared war on our country. The Empire will not be defeated, I assure you.”

Lord triumphed over the Imperial Sword and Warfare Festival to show that he had become emperor himself.

At the same time, he promises to intercept the declaration of war from the World Federation.

Earlier today, the World Alliance began its sortie towards Japan.

Although still at sea now, the decisive battle was expected to begin at night in former Tokyo, the capital of the 13th Special Region.

And so the Imperial Sword War Festival comes to an end and the world moves into a period of upheaval.

…

“Sieg-san! Are you going to fight! In Japan! With the Japanese!”

“Yes, the Lord has ordered it. He says we’re going to fight.”

Tanaka learned the truth.

That the Asian Union and the EU had joined forces to form a world federation.

And that an invasion had now begun to retake Japan.

“But, but! The Emperor! The Lord! He promised to return Japan!”

“The circumstances have changed. Master Lord has chosen an all-out war with the World Federation. That’s why we’re defending ourselves.”

“no… why… was he lying…?”

Sieg taps Tanaka’s discouraged shoulder.

“There’s going to be a war now, I’m a soldier of the Asgar Empire. I will now defend Japan. What about you?”

“I don’t know what to do…”

Then Sieg walks up to Tanaka, writes something on a piece of paper, and hands it to him.

“You stay, this is the place for the warriors. So stay here and take care of Mitsurugi. And… this.”

Sieg handed him a piece of paper.

What’s written on it is.

“Address? Is this a Japanese address and… a map? No way, this place.”

In response to this question, Sieg nodded.

“Tanaka, right now I don’t know what will happen to the world yet. But Mitsurugi has the potential to change this world. Please take care of the rest. And that place… is my selfishness. If anything happens to me, please tell Mitsurugi… to go there with Raina.”

“Sieg-san…”

With that, Sieg boarded the KOG and flew off to Japan alone.

To defend Japan from the World Federation and from the Japanese.

The difference in strength is overwhelmingly unfavorable. And although Lord is moving, he cannot move his army immediately.

Even so, as the person in charge of Japan, he is committed to defense.

…

“First, we need to gather information on the enemy, we don’t even know how many enemies we have! And hurry up to get an estimate of the number of troops stationed in District 13. We don’t have much time.”

“Yes, sir!”

Lord also begins to respond as best he can as emperor with his men.

But the army can only be moved to a minimum.

If he were to move a large number of troops, there is a high possibility that they would be attacked by Odin.

Many of the military forces, including some of the leading nobles and Odin’s private army, have suddenly disappeared.

It was clear to him that they must have moved somewhere else at the same time as he became emperor.

(But you’ve messed up so much… you’re very shrewd in that way, brother.)

Odin had an easy plan when he lost at the Imperial Sword Warfare Festival.

He was a man of pride, but Odin was good enough to assume the worst and move on.

Enough to mess up his chain of command to avoid being pursued.

But what that meant.

(There will always be a coup somewhere…)

Only Lord assumes Odin’s treason in his mind.

So now we have to preserve our forces, including against Odin.

That’s why we can’t send a large amount of military force to Japan, we don’t even know if we can defend ourselves, because we don’t yet have an understanding of the enemy’s strength.

“Even the grasp of domestic military power… my brother messed things up at all.”

Now we have to start by grasping the domestic forces available to move.

The holes in the personnel Odin had taken as he pleased were enough to mess up the Asgars forces, including the chain of command.

“You guys! Think there’s no time to sleep! It’s the critical moment. Three days! Three days to rebuild! Otherwise, we won’t even be able to send reinforcements!”

“Ha!”

…

Kaguya’s point of view.

“How do you feel?”

“Byakuren, this is what you were talking about.”

On the sea, on top of a transport fleet, a young man talks to a girl staring at Japan.

“Oh, it was a nice surprise, wasn’t it?”

“Not that I’m going to get it from you, because I’m going to get it back with my own hands, and…”

Kaguya then looks at the more than 20 KOGs on board.

And the special fiery fire-colored aircraft in that battle.

“I will definitely get it back with this fire-coloured Kagutsuchi. With my exclusive KOG, absolutely.” (Notes: (Japanese mythology, Shinto) The Japanese god of fire, son of Izanagi and Izanami and brother of Amaterasu, Susanoo, Tsukuyomi and Ōyamatsumi; he burned his mother to death while being born.)

“Ah, including the princess, all 13 Asian gods are present this time, plus the strongmen from over there, including Thor from the EU, he’s strong. I don’t even know if I can win.”

“Well. That’s reassuring. They really are giving it their all. The world.”

“Yeah, today’s battle is the signal to fight back. If we lose this one, the world will never be able to defeat the Asgar again. That’s why we absolutely must win. Even I am prepared to risk my life.”

That said, Hakuren looks literally like a military representative of the Asian Union, instead of the usual rakishly handsome man.

He knows, too, what it means to lose this battle.

That’s why, first of all, this recapture operation must be an absolute success.

“I know. We absolutely have to win it. So.”

Even the girl knows that.

So saying, Kaguya looks at the land in the distance from the sunny sea.

Her home country, Japan.

The country that is dear to me. The country that was taken from me. The land where I lost my dear brother, and…

(Kenya, I’ll definitely get it back… me, the one you protected, so watch me.)

The place where the boy I still love and think of today protected me with his life.

“I will definitely take back Japan.”

In those eyes burns a deep red flame.

With the similarly red KOG on her back.

The red is like the red and white Japanese flag, the name of the God of Fire, which burns red like the red and white Japanese flag.

Then all that remains is for the whites to be aligned.

However, it is not known whether that white lightning is an ally or not.

TL Here – Since some you’ve asked, I decided to pick up this novel once again. It’s pity to drop it when it’s near climax, and It’s also one of the novel that I started with, so I kinda have a special emotional toward it.

I don’t have any plan on doing KO-Fi for this but If you want I’ll consider, and I’ll update 3-4 Chapters a weak anyway.
