two months

In the midst of the chaos that enveloped the world, the demon forces launched relentless attacks. Tokyo, as one of the centers of civilization in Japan, felt the worst impact of the invasion. However, the demon assault was not limited to just one city. Osaka, Kyoto, Hiroshima, and other major cities became targets for the demons. In every corner, the people of Japan struggled to survive, hiding in the shelters that had been prepared.

In the midst of this deadly battle, Lelouch, along with the generals of the Vermilion Kingdom, including Li Xingke, plunged directly into the battlefield. Their presence was a beacon of hope for many who were cornered and desperate. With the strategies and power of the Vermilion Kingdom, they fought against the demon invasion in various cities.

However, the strength of the demons should not be underestimated. Battle after battle raged fiercely, and while many victories were achieved, there were also cities that fell and became nests for demons. Hiroshima, one of the important cities in Japan, was now engulfed in darkness. Every victory in one place was often accompanied by losses in another, creating a cycle of suffering that seemed endless.

This battle dragged on for a long time, far from the hope of ending in just a few days. This was a war between two worlds, and the challenges faced were immense. Each day, the demon forces launched new attacks, and each night, human fighters battled against fatigue and fear.

After defeating the demon forces in Tokyo, Euphemia gathered leaders from various countries around the world in a special virtual meeting.

When the leaders convened, they could not contain their curiosity about who Euphemia really was and the kingdom she represented. With a calm yet confident voice, Euphemia explained her origins. "We come from another world, from the Vermilion Kingdom. We have come to help you fight against this demonic threat."

Although many were skeptical and doubted her claims, they could not ignore the bitter reality that without the help of the Vermilion Kingdom, many of them might have perished in previous demon attacks. Euphemia outlined the strategic plans that the Vermilion Kingdom had developed to build strong defenses in every city where humans gathered.

She introduced the concept of teleportation circles, which would facilitate the movement of troops during demon attacks. "With this plan, we will be able to move quickly and effectively, providing better defense for every city," she stated.

The attending leaders began to feel a glimmer of hope. Despite lingering skepticism, they realized that they needed all the help they could get at this moment. Euphemia and the generals of the Vermilion Kingdom started collaborating with world leaders to establish the necessary defenses.

In every city, Vermilion forces were deployed to guard against demon attacks. Communication and cooperation between the Vermilion troops and local warriors began to develop well. Their presence brought a sense of security to the stressed and fearful populace.

However, despite the optimism, the battles continued with high intensity. Each day, reports of new demon attacks were received, and each night, soldiers trained and prepared for potential assaults.

Amidst all this, research on demons and supernatural powers by every country in the world never ceased. Thanks to the assistance from the Vermilion Kingdom, their progress in research advanced rapidly. Of course, the Vermilion Kingdom also benefited from this research, especially regarding various virtual technologies that they did not possess.

Unbeknownst to many, the Vermilion Kingdom had subtly seized a position as the world leader. They not only became a force in the war against the demons but also a symbol of hope for the desperate people. As news of the progress and successes of the Vermilion forces spread, communities worldwide began to place their trust and confidence in this kingdom. They saw Vermilion as a light in the darkness, a bridge to a better future.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, two months had gone by since the first demon attack shook the world. During this period, thanks to the aid and strategies from the Vermilion Kingdom, the world began to experience the return of the peace that had been lost. The process of recovery commenced, and the various cities devastated by war began to rebuild. Damaged infrastructure was repaired, and daily life slowly returned to its course.

Led by Edelweiss and Esdeath, the two strongest members of the Vermilion Kingdom, their forces actively continued the battle against the demons. They exterminated demons from every corner of the world. In every battle, Edelweiss displayed extraordinary power, causing demon leaders with rank A and even approaching rank S to face his strength with despair. They were slaughtered unilaterally, with no chance to fight back.

On the other hand, Esdeath found satisfaction in her battles against the demons. She felt that she finally had worthy opponents, although many of them turned out to be unable to match her abilities, it still satisfied her thirst for combat.

In addition to the Vermilion forces, the magic association under Noah's command also played a crucial role in the battles. They developed various supernatural powers adapted from their research on demons and magic. With the knowledge gained, they were able to create new tactics and methods to combat the demons, making the battles easier. Their continuously growing strength had a positive impact in facing the ever-present threats.

During these two months, despite the ongoing challenges, the world began to feel a new strength and hope. Every victory achieved by the Vermilion forces and their allies provided a boost to society. They witnessed how the cities that once lay in ruins were now beginning to rise again, and the hope for a better future felt increasingly tangible.

However, behind all these advancements, there was a growing awareness that the Vermilion Kingdom had taken over many aspects of life in this world. Unbeknownst to many, they had become the dominant force in the war against the demons. The actions and decisions of the kingdom influenced every step taken by other nations. People around the world began to rely on Vermilion as a leader, and its presence became a main pillar in facing the darkness.

Amidst all the difficulties and fears, the teachings of the God of Vermilion began to attract many. Those who were desperate in this chaotic world, where they lived in fear, found spiritual comfort in the existence of the God of Vermilion. The primary reason was that the God of Vermilion was the doctrine embraced by the Vermilion Kingdom, and those who had witnessed the greatness of the Vermilion warriors certainly longed to become like them.

As time went on, the teachings of the God of Vermilion became more rooted in the lives of the people. Many began to follow rituals and prayers to the God of Vermilion, hoping to gain strength and protection against the demonic threats. Churches and places of worship were built in various cities, becoming community centers that strengthened solidarity and provided spiritual comfort.

With the presence of this doctrine, many people found new purpose in their lives. Those who were previously paralyzed by fear began to rise, choosing to become warriors against the demons. Military training increased, with participation from all segments of society. Teenagers and adults alike flocked to enlist, learning how to use weapons and combat techniques.

The Vermilion Kingdom, led by Euphemia, continued to strengthen their position. They focused not only on combat but also on building infrastructure, especially in recovering from the aftermath of nuclear weapon launches.

However, amidst all these advancements, concerns began to emerge. Some world leaders started to feel the impact of the Vermilion Kingdom's dominance. They feared that such great power would lead to oppression and the loss of sovereignty. Secret meetings were held among leaders of smaller nations who questioned the intentions of the Vermilion Kingdom. They sought ways to limit the kingdom's influence, even as they realized that without Vermilion's help, they might not survive the war against the demons.

On the battlefield, Edelweiss and Esdeath continued to demonstrate their strength. Every time they engaged in battle, the results always favored the Vermilion forces. Edelweiss, with his unmatched combat skills, defeated enemies with speed and precision. Meanwhile, Esdeath earned the respect of every Vermilion soldier who met her, thanks to her military leadership. Together, they became legends among the troops, symbols of hope and strength.

On the other hand, research on demons continued. Various countries worked together to gain a deeper understanding of the demons' strengths and weaknesses. The magic association under Noah became the research center, developing new methods to combat the demons. They created potions and spells that could enhance the warriors, as well as tools that could detect the presence of demons before they attacked.

Alongside this progress, new challenges emerged. Some surviving demons began to adapt and develop new tactics to counter the Vermilion forces. Attacks that were previously easily repelled became more coordinated and deadly. The demon leaders realized that they had to change their approach, and with that, the situation on the battlefield began to shift.

One day, after a series of consecutive victories, Edelweiss and Esdeath returned to headquarters to plan their next steps. They discovered that the intelligence they received indicated that the demon forces were gathering strength at a strategic location. This location was a former city center that had been destroyed, but it was now becoming a new stronghold for the demon leaders.

With a unanimous decision, they prepared for a massive assault to destroy the stronghold. This plan involved many troops from various countries, and for the first time, all soldiers united under a single command. Euphemia acted as a bridge between all parties, ensuring that each nation contributed to this attack.

The day of the assault arrived, and the Vermilion forces moved forward with determination. As they approached the demon stronghold, a tense atmosphere enveloped the battlefield. Edelweiss and Esdeath were at the forefront. On their way to the stronghold, they witnessed many soldiers who had previously been downtrodden now fighting with extraordinary courage. This was a true reflection of the changes that had occurred in society thanks to the support of the Vermilion Kingdom.

As the battle began, both sides met with tremendous force. The demons, previously fragmented, had now united and fought with high spirits. Attack after attack ensued fiercely, with both sides suffering heavy losses. However, the fighting spirit of the Vermilion forces never waned.

Edelweiss launched devastating attacks, cutting through the demon ranks with incredible power. On the other side, Esdeath found satisfaction in the challenging battles. She engaged in a duel against the demon leader, feeling the adrenaline surge as she faced a formidable opponent.

Finally, after exhausting battles, the Vermilion forces managed to breach the defenses of the demon stronghold. They defeated the demon leader who had disrupted the peace for so long. In that moment, cheers of victory echoed throughout the battlefield, signaling that they had achieved a significant victory in the war against the demons.

However, despite this victory providing a sense of relief, Edelweiss and Esdeath knew that the struggle was far from over. Many demons still remained out there, and the threat was not fully resolved. They had to continue preparing and fighting, for the darkness would never fully disappear.

Behind the scenes, political tensions between the Vermilion Kingdom and other nations continued to escalate. Some leaders began to reassess their relationships with the kingdom, considering ways to strengthen their independence. They worried that if the Vermilion Kingdom continued to dominate, their desire for sovereignty could fade.

Euphemia, increasingly aware of the complexities of the situation, worked to maintain stability. She held meetings with skeptical country leaders, attempting to convince them that the Vermilion Kingdom was there to help, not to oppress. She emphasized that all nations had to unite in facing the existing threats, and that cooperation was key to achieving lasting peace.

Meanwhile, at the societal level, the teachings of the God of Vermilion grew stronger. Many people were inspired by the courage of the soldiers and were determined to follow in their footsteps.
