Under the moonlight

Africa is a co1ntinent that does not have significant political or military power, and most countries in Africa are under the influence of other great powers, especially Britain and the European Union (EU).

The vast territory of Africa is currently controlled by Britannia and the EU, there are many wars for territory between Britannia and the EU that occur in Africa.

Africa, which does not have strong political and partner powers, can only watch the war between the two great powers without fighting and can only wait for one of them to win and claim the African region. Currently two-thirds of Africa is under Britannia's control, and the rest is EU territory.

Although the EU advocates freedom, democracy, and human rights, it basically still looks down on small non-EU member countries, even the treatment of countries under its control is no different from Britannia, or even worse because unlike Britannia who conquered other countries' territories with their own military power, the EU even uses the population of non-member countries as cannon fodder on the battlefield against Britannia.

Euphemia, disguised as a commoner, walked through the area affected by the war between Britannia and the EU and observed the residents of the area who had miserable lives. When she saw this scene, her determination to bring peace became stronger, even though she had to shed a lot of blood in the process, she wanted to establish a new country where everyone would be treated equally without racial discrimination.

....

"Are you ready?, even if you have to dirty your hands with blood?" Noah asked Euphemia in front of him who seemed to have made up her mind.

"Yes, maybe on this journey there will be a lot of blood and casualties, but at least in the future, there will be no discrimination, and everyone will be treated equally no matter where they come from" Euphemia said firmly.

"Then I will witness what kind of future you will create" Noah said with a faint smile when he saw Euphemia's determination.

...

The cold night wind blew through the trees.

Euphemia, who was currently wearing a white military uniform, stood under the night sky and looked at the EU military fortress which was tightly guarded by dozens of Knightmares one kilometer in front of her.

Behind Euphemia were 20 people consisting of men and women. They were the people Euphemia had saved before when she was exploring the war zone. Under Euphemia's kind personality and the ideals she had to create a peaceful world, they voluntarily followed Euphemia to attack the EU military fortress.

"Listen, I will attack first and divert the EU's main attack to me, you only need to help shoot from a distance and don't force yourself. If you are afraid, you can leave now before it's too late." Euphemia said gently and caringly.

"Euphemia-sama, we will follow wherever you go, our lives were saved by you, even if we die here, we have no regrets" replied a woman with long hair with bangs covering her right eye, she had dark skin. She was Aisha, one of the women Euphemia had saved before. She was of mixed descent between India and Tunisia, North Africa.

Hearing Aisha's answer, the others fell silent as a sign of agreement.

Hearing Aisha's words, Euphemia did not persuade anymore and walked towards the fortress in the distance and activated the power given by Noah.

"O ruler of the underworld, your servant prays and beseeches you, grant me an immortal army to annihilate all enemies before me"

As Euphemia's spell was completed, a mysterious gate formed in front of her and the unded army poured out from within the gate.

Euphemia immediately ordered them to attack the fortress.

Tap... tap... tap....

The footsteps of the unded army broke the silence of the night.

"Enemy attack... enemy attack..."

Meanwhile, as the unded army appeared, the EU fortress in the distance immediately went on alert and immediately gathered all the soldiers and weapons to prepare for war.

Ta....ta...ta....

The Knightmare guarding the security of the fortress was the first to attack. The Knightmare's attack immediately killed several weak unded soldiers, but after only a few moments the unded soldiers came back to life and attacked the Knightmare.

...Bang...

The Knightmare was immediately thrown by the unded army's punch, before the Knightmare could get up, a fireball immediately hit the Knightmare. Due to the severe damage to the Knightmare, the Knightmare's cockpit automatically ejected and flew into the distance.

The Knightmare was not the only one damaged, many Knightmares suffered the same fate.

Bam....ta...ta ...ta. ..zzz

"Argh...."

The screams of the EU soldiers echoed in the night sky along with the sounds of gunfire and explosions. Knightmares and military vehicles continued to explode under the attacks of the Undead soldiers.

In the darkness of the night, Aisha and her comrades witnessed a terrifying scene from a distance. They were mesmerized by the figure standing in the middle of the crowd, surrounded by a mysterious aura that radiated unimaginable power. Euphemia stood gracefully under the moonlight, exuding a calmness that contrasted with the chaos that was happening around her.

A shocked scream rang out from the ranks of the soldiers who were trying to defend themselves. "Damn what monsters are these, they can't be killed at all... no... help..." Their voices were cut off instantly when lightning released by a magician among the Undead soldiers struck and struck one of the soldiers, making him a victim of an incomprehensible magical power.

Inside the fortress, the general who was full of tension shouted into the communication device in his hand

"Hey... what happened? Report!"

The panicked voices of the soldiers facing the enemy created an increasingly tense atmosphere.

"Report... general, those monsters can't be killed at all! No matter what we do, they will soon rise!" The disjointed voice of the soldier stunned the general, his eyes widening in confusion.

"Can't be killed? What?" The general's voice trembled, disbelief and panic filling the conference room. He knew that the situation was getting out of control.

"General, what should we do? They are getting closer to the fortress…" asked one of the leaders who looked pale.

The bad reports kept pouring in, "Reporting, the second line of defense has been breached!" The conference room was filled with anxious voices, everyone trying to find a way out of the approaching crisis.

"Wait, an unknown caller is calling us," said one of the staff in charge of the information section. All eyes were on the general, waiting for a decision.

"Connect," the general decided. After a moment of thought, he realized that this might be his only chance to find out what was really going on.

The communication screen lit up, and Euphemia appeared before them. Her voice was calm, yet firm. "To all EU soldiers, I am Euphemia. I ask you to surrender. I do not want any unnecessary casualties. Stop struggling in vain. As you can see, my soldiers cannot be killed. Cease resistance immediately. You will be treated as prisoners of war according to the international treaty. Surrender, I do not want any more unnecessary casualties."

Instantly, silence fell over the room. The general was stunned, recognizing the name that had been reported missing. "Euphemia Li Britannia, the third princess of the Britannia empire? Weren't you reported to have died in the incident at Mount Fuji?"

"I am Euphemia, representing myself, no longer a princess of Britannia. As you know, I am the one who leads the immortal army. Cease resistance immediately, and you will be treated as prisoners of war according to the international treaty," she replied in a tone full of conviction.

"General, the third line of defense has been breached!" The report echoed again, and the general's face paled even further. He knew that their time was running out.

He sighed, feeling the weight of the decision that had to be made. "We surrender. I hope you will fulfill your promise, Euphemia," he said hoarsely, a bitter smile on his face.

"Of course," Euphemia replied, her tone soft yet firm. She ended the call, leaving the general and his staff in a painful silence.

Outside, Aisha and her companions watched as Euphemia's troops advanced. They did not fight with hatred or vengeance. Instead, they moved with an eerie calm, as if they were creatures reborn from the darkness of the night.

"Is this really the end?" Aisha asked herself, feeling uncertainty nibbling at her heart. How could a princess who was supposed to be dead return with such great power? What did it all mean?

The night was getting deeper, and the atmosphere inside the fortress was filled with worry and uncertainty. The general gathered his remaining troops, trying to calm them down before surrendering. "We have fought with all our hearts, but now, we must choose to live. Let us surrender with our heads held high."

The remaining soldiers looked at the general with eyes filled with fear and hope. They knew that outside the fortress, Euphemia and her soldiers were waiting.

Finally, the general led his group out of the fortress, raising a white flag as a sign of surrender. Outside, Euphemia waited with a calm face, surrounded by her fearsome yet disciplined immortal soldiers.

"Welcome, you have made a wise choice," Euphemia said, her voice soft yet powerful. "We do not wish to add to the pain in your hearts. You will be treated with respect."

Aisha and her companions watched from afar, witnessing how an incomprehensible force had changed everything.

As Euphemia stood in the middle of the night, they saw a symbol of new strength and hope. And though they did not know what would happen next, one thing was for sure: their world had changed forever.

Euphemia looked out at the now-ruined fortress, feeling a mixture of triumph and sadness.

"This is the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one," Euphemia murmured to herself.

Aisha and the others approached, looking at Euphemia. "What shall we do now, Euphemia-sama?" Aisha asked, her eyes gleaming with hope.

Euphemia smiled, "We shall rebuild this world. Those who survived we shall save, and those who were caught in this battle we shall help. We shall create a better future."

With renewed vigor, Euphemia turned her gaze towards the night sky, which was beginning to brighten with starlight. Deep in her heart, she knew that this journey had only just begun, and the challenges ahead would be greater than ever. However, with the support of those around her, she felt ready to face whatever came.

"Now, let's do this together," Euphemia said, and everyone around her cheered, united in their newfound purpose.

...

Noah watched as Euphemia single-handedly conquered the EU military fortress with the power he had been given.
