Not-So an Extra



The sea at night shimmered with rays of light as Aeon Vanguard galleons relentlessly fired the Elemental Cannons. 

The sheer power of the cannons caused the Aeon Galleon to recoil, drawing back a dozen meters.

—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!

The sound of splintering wood and metal echoed across the sea.

In quick succession, the Kearny warships were obliterated, breaking apart into two pieces.

The enemy Marines' crews were spotted swimming toward the wreckage of their ship.

However, before they could even reach it, they were struck down by a barrage of arrows.

"Argh!"

"Urg!"

The sound of agony filled the air as blood spattered and stained the sea, arrows piercing every part of their bodies.

Aeon's attack was not limited to Elemental Cannons alone. 

The second wave of the assault came in the form of a volley of arrows, launched by hundreds of Archers positioned above the vanguard galleon deck. 

As a result, the Kearny Marines were overwhelmed and many of them perished in the ocean.

The Aeon Vanguard continued its onslaught, ramming at full speed into the remnants of the Kearny battleship.

The impact was so great that the ship began to sink to the bottom of the sea, taking with it any remaining Kearny Marines.

"This is incredible! I've never seen anything like that!"

"I concur! This will be a game-changer weapon on the battlefield!"

The Knight Lieutenants exclaimed and his friend joined in the conversation.

Ignoring them, Adrian glanced toward his teammates, and just like he had expected, their complexion was far from all right.

Their bodies were stiff with tension and beads of sweat formed on their pallid faces.

Their heads hung low and stared blankly at the food on the table.

Well, witnessing the horrors of war firsthand was undoubtedly taking a toll on their young minds.

Adrian understood how it felt.

Because he had been through it back in his previous world.

What was different was that he had endured that hellish experience in person, not through a screen—at the age of five.

Shifting his attention to his brother, he couldn't help but notice a stark contrast in the atmosphere. 

Nathaniel seemed to be enjoying the refreshments, chomping away while casually watching the war as if he were watching a football match.

'This damn Regressor.'

Adrian shook his head and returned his eyes to the screen.

Well, there was no discernible change in the situation; Aeon's vanguard continued to fire a blitz of Elemental Cannons.

A volley of arrows rained down as the second wave attacked and ruthlessly rammed the remnants of Kearny warships until they vanished from the ocean's surface.

Despite starting with a smaller number of galleons, the enemy ships were annihilated in less than two hours. 

Now, under the skilled leadership of Sir Ethan—a Commodore, Aeon's fleet was advancing at full speed toward the coastal waters of the Kearny Kingdom.

The Kearny Knights at the beach panicked, their morale had plummeted down to the ground. 

Rather than regrouping, they were scrambling in all directions, desperate to save themselves. 

It was understandable, given the absolute madness of the situation. 

The enemy's use of a plasma beam, instead of a conventional cannon, gave the impression that they were fighting a calamity rather than a war.

Simply, the Kearny simply had no chance of winning this battle.

'Poor Kearny.'

The moment the fleet arrived at the rugged coastline, the vanguard galleon unleashed a barrage of fiery cannons upon the sandy beach.

—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!

It exploded on impact, sending sand, debris, and human body parts flying in all directions.

The sound of explosions echoed across the water as flames licked at the shoreline.

"Aaarrghh!!"

"Heellpp!!"

Amidst the sound of explosions, the screams of enemy soldiers could be heard as they desperately tried to escape the deadly barrage. 

The beach was a scene of devastation, with incomplete bodies strewn about and smoldering flames.

As a thought kicked in, Adrian turned to the black-haired beside him.

"I have a question."

"What is it?"

Nathaniel answered without removing his eyes from the screen.

"It has been three months since the war began. Why didn't the Empire utilize the Elemental Cannon from the outset?"

"That is because the Elemental Cannon was still in development."

Nathaniel drank his juice and continued.

"When the Kearny Kingdom declared war on us, the Emperor ordered the Tower to expedite its completion. Now that they have successfully finished it, they are immediately putting it to the test in actual battle."

Adrian tilted his head.

"So, doesn't that mean the Empire intends to prolong this war just to test the weapons?"

"Indeed, that is correct."

Ho?

Who would have thought that his very father—the Emperor of this nation, would be toying with the enemy and using them as guinea pigs?

He never knew his father was such a shrewd and cunning leader.

Interesting.

"Oh, they surrender."

ƥαṇdαs ηθνε| Adrian glanced at the screen and saw a cavalry lined up at the top of the hill. 

There were so many of them, probably a corps or army, and each waved a white flag. 

Seeing this, the fleet halted their attacks and began to withdraw, swirling the galleons.

And some monsters began to gather around the remnants of the Kearny wreckage ship, drawn by the immense amount of blood.

The audience caught off guard, quickly stood up and began to applaud.

—Claps —Claps —Claps 

The room was filled with satisfaction and appreciation for the demonstration that had just been presented.

When the applause died down, Gizel resumed his speech.

Watching the war was fun, however, Adrian felt a bitter aftertaste in his mouth.

"Tsk."

He clucked his tongue in annoyance.

Here he thought he could use this opportunity to test out his magic, but who would have thought that the Kearny Kingdom would surrender so quickly?

Sensing a familiar presence, Adrian darted at the entrance and a man with light green hair was seen entering the room.

Upon arriving before them, Asher bowed and greeted them.

"Your Highness."

Nathaniel and Adrian nodded in response.

Soon, the man leaned in and whispered something that caught him off guard.

"The Kearny Knights are on their way here."

Huh?

Adrian furrowed his forehead, for some reason, he couldn't comprehend the current situation.

What did Asher mean by 'on the way here'?

Didn't they just surrender a few seconds ago?
