The Ramallon Imperial Expeditionary Force consists of four major military units. Namely, the main army led by General Callies, the commander-in-chief, the first army in front of the main army, the second army on the left wing, and the third army on the right wing.

General Callies was in a deep state of worry. Zizeu, the commander of the 2nd Army, who boasted of his superior command ability in defending his own position, was provoked by the enemy and moved his army.

The left flank of the 2nd Army's position also borders the Jucan border. Many warders had been deployed there in case the Great Demon King's army appeared, but half of them had been killed.

With his staff sent back to their positions, Callejes, now alone, sighs as he looks at the sunset-tinted Imperial Army unfolding below him.

General Callies and Commander Almond have contrasting attitudes toward the battle. General Callies believes that a general must calmly analyze the war situation from the back row and issue appropriate orders, and that everything ends when the general dies. Therefore, it is out of the question for him to go to the front himself. On the other hand, Commander Almond, on the other hand, believes that it is impossible to fight a battle unless he is in command of the front line, encouraging his soldiers and raising their morale by risking his own life.

This is the difference between the desk-oriented approach and the field-oriented approach of Caries, who received a gifted education at the Imperial Military Academy, and Almond, who has worked his way up from an armful of experience, but unfortunately there was no one in the army to connect the two. This was a major weakness of Lamar's army.

Both sides have a good point. However, this makes the story more complicated. General Callies, who was well aware of this, was pondering how to move Commander Almond, who possessed an incompatible but exceptional generalship.

I see that Kunogen has disappeared into the forest, and I turn to Sadakichi, the Fairy Dragon, who is waiting behind me.

Sadakichi and 20 other Fairy Dragons fly away. I create a mist toward the river flowing from the Irbezi River to the Juka side and the mountains on the other side of the river.

They were lighting bonfires in their camp at this time of day, when the sun was setting and the area was rapidly enveloped in darkness. In the dim light, the dimly visible mountains are rapidly enveloped in white smoke. Just as they were about to leave the area to report to the corps commander, a voice comes from another soldier.

When he looked, he saw that the river was shrouded in fog, but there appeared to be flickering flames at the end of it. Moreover, it was huge. There was a flickering pillar of fire several tens of meters high. And it seemed to grow in proportion to the speed at which the sun was setting.

Knogen's troops had built a huge tower on top of the logs over the river. The towers were built in a number of rows across the entire width of the river. The fire was set from the place where they were built.

On Lamaron's side, there was unrest. The upper reaches of the river were turning red. Just when everyone began to feel that the rumored Great Demon King had arrived, the soldiers of the Second Army heard an unfamiliar sound.

Suddenly, all hell breaks loose on the left flank of Lamaron's army. A herd of 30 Egnimos, huge bulls 3 to 4 meters in length, had emerged from the mountains on the Jukha side and were charging across the river toward the Lamaron army.

Egnimos are characterized by their large horns, which are shaped like the letter T. They charged with their horns, easily smashing through the fence that Lamaron's army had built, and sent the soldiers around them flying.

Such voices can be heard everywhere. Catching on, the soldiers of the Second Ramallon Army fled one after another. One Egnemo chased after the fleeing Lamarong soldiers, and another ran into the neighboring First Army.

The soldiers of the whole army were shouting loudly, using megaphones made from thousands of thick sheets of paper that had been handed out during the day. Some of them climbed on top of trees and screamed, others went out to the very edge of the enemy's attack and shouted loudly.
