Roughly two months passed since Lucretia was first kidnapped.
The Imperial Army was currently marching towards the forbidden mountains in the far west, where the Demons were said to reside.
They should be arriving where they expect to see the first signs of the opponent soon.
I had heard there was little support from the empire's allies and even vassal states due to their desire to dominate the opponent with their own force, perhaps as a demonstration to the world proving Drakon-Rasa deserved to be on top.
Incidentally, this included the Christina-Rasa Archduchy, whose ruler, the Archduke, stated he too would remain merely observant to the war.
Outwardly, this was to respect the emperor and the Imperial Princess' wishes, who was in charge of directing preparation for the war, however I had received a message from Lucretia herself claiming her father likely found it another convenient opportunity to test her.
