<<<O>>>

On a dead-land, filled with nothing but dead soil, barbed-wire wrapped around many fences and soldiers wearing blue and red uniforms, many explosions occur in the area, courtesy of other soldiers who are wearing dark green uniforms. They're also using many 10 CM K14 artillery to attack the previously mentioned blue-wearing soldiers. On the trenches, many of the green-wearing soldiers wait with shaky breaths and wide-eyes. One of them blows a whistle and signals for his troops to advance.

 As the soldiers leave their cover, many instantly get shot or blown up, either before they start rushing towards the enemy or after they do so. The enemy wearing blue keep their pace, loading and shooting their Lebel Model 1886 Rifles and using mortars to attack. After one of the mortars fires, a lone soldier flies inside a small and dirty pond. He looks up to see more explosions and one of his comrades shouting while holding his eyes in pain, begging for a medic.

Soldier: ["It's no use! The reinforcements are just a random group of mages!"] One of the soldiers says before being shot on his chest. After that, one of his comrades carrying a hurt man gets shot too.

The soldier inside the pond narrows his eyes in anger, his expression slowly moving from shock to pure hatred. He turns his body around, ready to leave and rush into battle, only to bet met with three enemy soldiers aiming their guns at him. But before they could fire, or the soldier could surrender, the three enemy soldiers get hit by a small explosion. The soldier inside the water looks in shock before a girl with long brown hair and shiny blue eyes lands at his side.

Soldier: ["A mage?!"] He asks in shock. The girl picks him up with his arm over her shoulder before taking flight. Inside the enemy trenches, the soldiers aim a Vicker machine gun at the girl, only for most of the shots miss. The two ones that would hit, however, are stopped by what seems like a cyan-colored energy field around her.

[A/N - Look at this precious cutie]

[Platoon 3 Member]
->[Corporal Viktoriya Ivanova Serebryakov]<-

Harald: ["What are you doing, Visha?!"] Another soldier screamed at his brown-haired companion. He was also flying and shooting the enemy.

Kurst: ["We can't provide air support anymore!"] A blonde soldier screamed while the girl from before landed and safely, and passed the hurt soldier to one of his companions. ["What are the platoon commander's orders?"]

Viktoriya: ["Th - they cannot allow us to retreat!"] She spoke while holding her neck to activate her comms. ["We are to continue delaying the enemy till the end"] She looks up in time to see an enemy mortar about to hit her. She extends her hand and forms another of those cyan-colored shields in front of her. It was enough to reduce the power enough so it wouldn't kill her, but it was enough to send her back against the ground. She grunts in pain with her eyes shut before another voice rang in the air.

Tanya: ["Believers, have faith in the Lord's blessing..."] The voice of a female child rang in the air, causing the brown-haired girl to open her eyes to look at the owner of the said voice.

On the air stood a young girl with tied long blonde hair and shiny blue eyes. She aims her rifle towards the enemy forces.

Tanya: ["Give me the power to destroy the enemies of the Fatherland"] She prayed while her rifle glows in a golden color. In a moment, her bright-blue eye becomes a golden color. As she pulls the trigger, she causes a shot with enough power to blow up a small area on the enemies. As the explosion slowly clears, Viktoriya stands amazed in front of the power she just witnessed.

[Imperial Army 205th Assault Mage Company Platoon 3 Commander]
->[Second Lieutenant Tanya Von Degurechaff]<-

Viktoriya: ["An explosion spell..."] She mutters in amazement.

Y/N: ["If you have time for idle chat"] A new voice rang behind them, causing everyone to look up, noticing a boy with [H/C] hair in a messy [H/S], the said boy looked no older then 13 years old. On his right hand, he carried a Maschinengewehr 34 that was resting against his shoulder. ["Do everything you can to survive... "]

[Imperial Army 205th Assault Mage Company Platoon 3 Sergeant]
->[Third Lieutenant Y/N M/N L/N]<-

Viktoriya: ["Sergeant?"] She asked as the boy lands behind her.

Y/N: ["We are soldiers. If the brass tells us to do something, we do it"] He said. He had his right-eye shut, and his left-eye partially open. He gently shakes his head, getting rid of a few stray hairs falling on his face. He faces forward with determination. The blonde girl previously mentioned lands at his side, holding her rifle in hand.

Viktoriya: ["Second Lieutenant Tanya Degurechaff and Third Lieutenant Y/N L/N. Amidst the downpour of shells and bullets, they flew high and nobly. Like a fairy and a gargoyle"]

"In a cursed world, always engulfed in the flames of war, there was a nation known as the Empire. Its vast military and industrial power made it virtually synonymous with victory. It possessed a large number of brilliant military minds and mages, but the Empire was surrounded on all sides by strong potential enemies. For this reason, its military formulated Plan 315, wherein border forces carried out delaying actions in all theaters, buying time for a highly mobile, concentrated main force to travel to each area and defeat the enemy there. At least, that was the plan."

[Unified year 1924]
[Imperial Capital Berun]

[Imperial Strategic Headquarters]

Inside the Strategic Headquarters in the Imperial Capital, 3 People stood inside a room. One of them was sitting down, while the other two stood up. The one sitting down is

[Deputy of Strategy and Operations]
-> [Brigadier General Kurt Von Rudersdorf]<-

Kurt: ["What is the situation in the Rhine theater? When will the main force be deployed there?"] He asked, upset about the current situation.

The one to answer was a younger male. He had dark-blue hair and wore a pair of glasses.

[Vice-director of Strategy and Operations]
-> [Lieutenant Colonel Erich von Rerugen] <-

Erich: ["Delayed in the northern areas"] He spoke after gently pushing his glasses up. ["We must adjust the rail and ship schedules, so the deployment is going to take another two weeks"] He spoke while Kurt inhaled his cigar.

Kurt: ["We must pull back the lines even more?"] He asked after humming, gently putting his cigar out. ["This could endanger the western industrial areas"]

Erich: ["We don't even have enough reserves to send reinforcements"] He spoke while moving a few chess pieces on top of a map. ["We've been caught totally off-guard..."]

Kurt: ["From the start, a major offensive against the Entente Alliance was a mistake!"] He looks down at the chess pieces, clenching his fists. ["If we'd kept ourselves to a limited mobilization..."] He smashes his hand on the table, causing the black knight and a black pawn to fall.

Hans: ["We were the ones who failed to convince"] He starts, reaching forward and grabbing the black pieces and putting them up. ["The higher-ups that they were wrong about the Republic's not mobilizing. Plan 315 is no longer viable"]

[Vice-director of Strategy and Operations]
->[Brigadier General Hans von Zettour]<-

Hans: He gently reaches his hand up and scratches his chin in thought. ["Sice our attempts to delay the enemy aren't working, we'll have to move a mobile defense, right?"]

Erich: ["But that will be difficult, given the state of the Rhine theater"] Erich argues while looking at Hans. ["Our forces are depleted and exhausted, so it's beyond their capacity"]

Hans: He gently leans forward while holding the table, moving a few pieces as he speaks. ["We have already grabbed every spare soldier we could send there"] He said as he leaves the two white knights side to side, between two rooks. ["That will buy some time"] Erich looks at him with sweat running down his cheek.

Kurt: ["I suppose it helps to have a talented contemporary, huh?"] He asked with his eyes closed and head down.

Hans: ["Isn't that statement premature?"] He argued while keeping his arms crossed.

Kurt: ["What?"] He opens his eyes and looks up at Hans.

Hans: ["Reports say we've lost over half the unites we've deployed. They say the Rhine theater is now a living hell"]

.
.
.

Back in Rhine theater, many soldiers lay dead in the No Man's Land. A few survivor soldiers of the empire starts walking away, dragging themselves and other hurt comrades. A single soldier stops in his tracks, looking over the No Man's Land, noticing the battle still going on in the air.

On the battlefield, Tanya uses a pair of binoculars to spot a few Republic soldiers rushing forward in the No Man's Land. Y/N stays at his side, having his MG 34 in hands, leaning it against his right shoulder.

Tanya: ["Enemies sighted on the ground, two o'clock"] She informs, Y/N holds his gun in hand, ready to battle. ["Artillery spell"] She orders, Y/N quickly aims his gun at the enemies, closing one of his eyes, ready to take the shot. ["Fire!"]

Viktoriya/Y/N: ["Right!"] Both aim their guns at the enemy, Y/N pulls the trigger for a second before letting it go while Viktoriya presses the trigger of her rifle multiple times. As the shots lands, it causes many small explosions between the soldiers.

Soldier: ["It's coming from above! Danm the bastards!"] They scream in horror as they keep being shot by both Y/N and Viktoriya.

Harald: ["Die, die!"] Harald screamed with fury as he kept shooting the enemy below them. ["Take this..."]

Kurst: ["You Republican bastards!"] He completes what his friend started saying as he continues shooting. His eyes widen in shock as an explosion occurs right in between them. They are protected by their shields, however. ["Artillery... Take out the artillery! Come with me, Harald!"] He orders his friend before flying forward.

Harald: ["Roger!"] He replies, flying alongside his friend.

Y/N: ["Both of you corporals, get back here!"] He orders, pressing a hand against the region of his neck to activate the comms. ["Our mission is to delay the enemy via flanking attacks"]

Harald: ["Let us go, please! Now's our chance!"] He argued, this caused Y/N eyes to narrow in slight anger.

Tanya: ["Your chance to what?!"] She screamed, giving Y/N the chance to go back at firing along with Viktoriya. ["Get back here, this is an order!"]

Kurst: ["Take this!"] He screamed. Hundreds of meters forward, Tanya, Y/N, and Viktoriya saw a bright blueish green light before two explosions happen on the battlefield. ["All right! Did you see that, commander? We'll keep going and crushing the artillery!"] Viktoriya takes a moment to reload and look to the side, only to notice both Y/N and Tanya giving their allies a death stare.

.
.
.

Later on that same date, during the night on the soldier's camp, multiple nurses and medics treat the wounded. Viktoriya, Harald, and Kurst sit on top of medium-sized boxes around a small campfire, heating a pot of food. Viktoriya takes a sip from a metal spoon that she just pulled from a small metal cup, only to almost spit it out after. She covers her mouth with her arm, coughing while looking to the side.

Harald: ["Too tired to eat, huh?"] He asks with pity while looking at the brown-haired girl in front of him.

Kurst: ["Force it down if you have to, you won't last otherwise"] He said while gently taking a sip from his food.

The booming sound of thunder grabs their attention. The three look up to see multiple lightning running through multiple big and dark clouds.

Viktoriya: ["They say they beaten the 202nd and 203rd companies"] Viktoriya said while looking up at the lightning running through the clouds.

Kurst: ["I volunteered to come to the front lines. And now I gotta work for those two?!"] He asked, upset while looking down at the campfire.

Soldier: ["Platoon 3, of the 205th"] A soldier said while stepping towards them, grabbing their attention. ["Your captain is calling you"] He informed before walking away.

Inside the tent, Now wearing their uniform, Y/N sat down on top of a pile of boxes, cleaning his MG 34 while Tanya scribbled away on a piece of paper.

[A/N - The uniform, for those who don't know]

Y/N: ["Knowing you, I'd say you have a plan already"] Y/N says, breaking the silence inside the tent.

Tanya: ["Yes, I do. They should expect harsh punishment for their actions"] She spoke without looking to Y/N, who simply smirks.

A few seconds pass by as Kurst, Viktoriya, and Harald enter the tent after being called by Tanya, who informs both boys of her decision without even looking at them.

Kurst: ["You're sending us back home?!"] He asked in surprise, taking a step back.

Tanya: ["I would say you are getting off lightly"] She said while turning to face them. ["Be grateful"] She spoke with a solemn face. ["The army has no need for officer candidates who disobey orders"] She said while standing in front of both. Viktoriya stood a few meters away, looking at them with a nervous face. Y/N kept sitting on top of the boxes, having his rifle in hand.

Kurst: ["But we were trying to take out the artillery!"] He reasoned, looking down at Tanya. ["You know how many of our infantry they took out, don't you?"]

Y/N: ["Is that all you have to say?"] He starts, getting the attention of everyone in the room, who looks at him in slight shock. ["The army is an organization. And organizations are nothing without rules!"] He proudly said while staring at both boys.

Tanya: ["Dismissed"] he concludes, taking her hands off her back and turning away from Kurst and Harald.

Kurst: ["I... I refuse to accept this!"] He exclaims, causing Tanya to stop in her tracks and slowly turn back to him. ["I volunteered to come to the front lines!"] He argued while stepping towards the blonde girl, crossing a hand on his chest while bowing slightly. ["My only choices are victory or death!"] He stated proudly, clenching his fists.

Harald: ["Me too!"] He said, stepping to Kurst's side while Viktoriya looks at the scene with her big eyes, obviously nervous while sweat runs down her face. ["I agree with corporal Kurst"] Viktoriya recoils in slight fear after seeing Y/N's death glare. ["They expect a man of the Empire to be brave!"] Viktoriya looks down in slight fear while gently reaching her hand forward.

Tanya: She stares up at both soldiers while keeping a straight face and her hands behind her back. ["So you're saying you'll disobey your superior officer's orders again?!"] She starts lowly, before raising her voice and taking a step forward, putting a hand on the saber on her hip, while Y/N aims his MG 34 at both.

Viktoriya: ["Lieutenants!"] She screams in fear while taking a step forward. Y/N and Tanya stay in the same position for a few seconds before lowering their weapons. Tanya gently fixes her hat while looking at both soldiers in front of her.

Tanya: ["I'll take your opinion under advisement"] She spoke while turning away, looking over her shoulder at both. ["But you'd best be prepared to face some punishment"]

With that said, Tanya turns her back and walks away while Y/N simply scoffs slightly and goes back to cleaning his weapon. Both soldiers look at both Lieutenants with slight shock and fear.

On the following day, Viktoriya sits on top of a box, getting ready while zipping up her uniform. She reaches down and tightens the metal boot of her mage uniform, making sure it's well secured. She reaches up and pushes a little bit of her away from her face while she looks around, troubled, as she is looking for someone. After that, a tall man with short dark-brown hair and light-brown eyes steps in front of her.

[Imperial Army 205th Assault Mage Company Commander]
-> [First Lieutenant Ihlen Schwarzkopf]<-

Ihlen: ["Corporal Serebryakov"] He calls her, she looks up at the man. ["Is something wrong?"] He asked with a polite smile.

Viktoriya: ["Sch... Lieutenant Schwarzkopf!"] She stands up while saluting before lowering her hand. ["Um, I don't see Corporal Kurst or Corporal Harald"] She said while looking around.

Ihlen: ["That's right. You were in their class, weren't you?"] He spoke, a smile forming on his face. ["They transferred to the rear as of today"]

Viktoriya: ["The rear?"] She asked, tilting her head in confusion.

Ihlen: ["Yeah. They must be standing in a pillbox now. That was a suggestion of Lieutenants Degurechaff and L/N. I hear they made them angry"] He said, lowering his voice towards the end while looking away.

Viktoria: ["Y - Yes. I was sure they would receive a harsh punishment"] She said, with a low voice before looking up at Ihlen with a small blush. ["I see. They send them to the rear where it's safe"] She said, with a bright smile. However, she didn't notice Y/N nearby, leaning against a few boxes, with a small smirk on his face.

.
.
.

Back at the trenches, two flare shots fly through the air. Viktoriya flies through the sky, sweating and dirty, with small scratches on her face. The bright-blue color from her eyes slightly fades while she starts to fall. Tanya and Y/N fly ahead of her and everyone else, with Tanya being on the lead with Y/N close behind her. Viktoriya starts falling to the ground before crashing. She lays down on four, heavily panting while she tries to catch her breath. She hears a loud sound, looking up only to meet the cold glares from Tanya and Y/N.

Tanya: ["If you're wearing that uniform, contribute to your country. The Empire doesn't have resources to waste on weak soldiers"] She said, coldly, while she and Y/N continued to glare at her.

Viktoriya: ["R - Right!"] She says with her eyes half-closed.

Y/N: ["Corporal Serebryakov!"] Y/N loudly said, grabbing her attention.

Viktoriya: ["Yes?!"] She exclaimed in surprise, looking up at Y/N.

Y/N: ["Call an emergy meeting"] He said while holding his neck to activate his comms.

.
.
.

Once again, back at their camp, Platoon 3 stands in front of Ihlen. Y/N stands behind Tanya with his arms crossed, showing the difference in height between them, with Tanya being 1.2 Meters tall, while Y/N stands at 1.6 Meters. He was behind Tanya, with his arms crossed while Tanya and Viktoriya kept their hands behind their back.

Ihlen: ["Bad news, everyone. Our 403rd Mage Company suddenly encountered and entered combat with two companies of mages. And they can't use artillery because they targeted the observer mages, meaning they can no longer spot the shells"] He informs, Tanya raises her head as she asks a question.

Tanya: ["Enemy observer-hunters?"] She asked.

Ihlen: ["Oh, right. You and L/N encountered them in the north, Lieutenant Degurechaff"] He informs while looking down at Tanya, who nods.

Y/N: ["Yeah. And I never want to go through that again"] He scoffs while looking to the side.

Ihlen: ["We'll leave immediately to rescue the observers. Any questions?"] After two or so seconds, Tanya takes a step forward.

Tanya: ["We can perform a delaying action, but rescuing them will be difficult"] She said, keeping her hands behind her back.

Ihlen: ["Oh? Even with those Type-95?"] He asked while looking at a circular Necklace at Tanya's neck with a bright-red gem on the middle surrounded by gold and with a cross at the top, and a purple ring at Y/N's middle fingers.

Tanya: ["L/N and I can still fight, but Corporal Serebryakov is at her limit"] She said, Y/N nods while Viktoriya looks down at her in slight shock. ["I don't want to be the kind of incompetent who goes to rescue someone, only to lose them and a soldier"] She argued while Viktoriya shuts her eyes and grits her teeth while gripping her wrist.

Viktoriya: ["Company Commander, I volunteer for this!"] She loudly said, taking a few steps forward. ["I volunteer for the rescue mission!"]

Y/N: ["Stop"] He said, keeping his right eye closed and arms crossed while glancing at her with his left eye. ["You can't do it"] He simply said, still looking at her.

Viktoriya: ["I'm an Imperial Soldier, too. I'm certain I can complete the mission!"] She argued back while looking at Ihlen.

Y/N: ["Corporal!"] Y/N said, raising his voice slightly.

Viktoriya: ["Company Commander!"] She said while looking up at Ihlen with determination present in her eyes. ["Please, please, let me go!"]

Ihlen: ["You two heard her, Lieutenants"] He said, glancing down at Y/N and Tanya. ["I understand your concerns, but she says she's all right"] He said, Tanya and Y/N share a glance with each other.

Y/N/Tanya: ["Roger"] They reply in the middle of a sigh. ["We'll do the best we can"] They said with their eyes closed. Viktoriya looks at both with a beaming smile.

After the meeting was over, everyone started walking to their respective tends. Y/N and Tanya walk side to side without sharing a word. Occasionally glancing back and forth between themselves, but nothing past that. Viktoriya looks around in slight confusion as she looks for Tanya and Y/N. After she spots them, she gently runs towards both.

Viktoriya: ["Lieutenant Degurechaff! Lieutenant L/N!"] She called. Both stop in their tracks and turn to face their comrade, who runs towards them and stops, bowing slightly. ["Thank you"]

Tanya: ["Corporal. You're really ready for this, right?"] She asked, looking up at Viktoriya.

Viktoriya: ["Yes ma'am!"] She confirms, with a confident nod.

Y/N: ["Understood. Time for work, then"] He spoke while walking away side-to-side with Tanya. Behind them, Viktoriya beams a cheerful smile.

[Youjo Senki]
[01]

Back in the war, the Empire Soldiers were hiding in the trenches. One of them had a pair of earphones while carrying what seemed like a small box.

Soldier: ["Command post, this is Bravo 01! Enemy mages are stopping us from artillery spotting!"] He said in the earphone, fear being present in his voice. ["How much longer will the reinforcements take?!"]

Command Post: ["Command Post to Bravo 01. The 205th Mage Company is en route. 403rd Mage Company, continue spotting"] Was their reply.

Soldier: ["Danm it!"] The soldier screamed in anger, tossing the earphones away. ["Don't they understand what's going on?!"]

One of the mages slowly raises his head out of the trenches, looking to both sides before taking flight. Only to be instantly shot and blown up by enemy soldiers.

[Republican Army 106th Recon Mage Company]

Instead of flying using boots powered with magic, the Republic uses metal vehicles that look like horses. They are slower and uncomplicated to hit, making it easier to hit, but they don't use the magic reserve of their soldiers, which makes it great for long combats.

Hosman: ["Huh. I'd heard the Imperial Mages were good. Guess you can't trust in rumors..."]

[Republican Army 106th Recon Mage Company Commander]
-> [First Lieutenant Augustin Hosman]<-

Hosman: ["Troops! Find the remaining observers!"] He ordered.

Sean: ["I've been trying, but they appear to be hiding in the trenches"] A soldier at his side, likely the second Lieutenant, informed. Lowering a binocular from his eyes as he spoke.

Hosman: ["Then blow away anywhere you think they might be"] He ordered once again, still looking down to the battlefield.

Sean: ["But a wide-area explosion spell will drain our magic!"] He informed, but Hosman ignored and raised his rifle.

Hosman: ["It doesn't matter"] He answered, aiming with his gun. ["Maximum firepower!"] He ordered his troops, who started channeling their magic on their rifles. ["Fire!"] He ordered. All of the soldiers pulled their triggers, unleashing an extensive barrage of explosive rounds, causing a massive explosion.

From far away, the 205th mage company saw the explosions. Tanya led the soldiers, with Y/N following her close behind.

Soldier: ["A - Attention, all units! We've lost contact with friendly observers!"] He informed, causing Tanya and Y/N to sigh.

Tanya: ["What a mess..."] She sighs with her eyes closed.

Viktoriya: ["S - Should we turn back?"] She shyly asked, looking towards Tanya and Y/N.

Y/N: ["No. It's a shame we weren't on time, but we're inside enemy firing range. We've gotta earn our pay"] He said, while still flying close to Tanya, reading his MG 34 in hands.

Viktoriya: ["W - We only got one platoon"] She argued, looking up at Y/N. ["We can't fight a whole company"]

Tanya: ["You said you were ready for this"] She counters, glancing at Viktoriya, who clenches her teeth in slight fear. ["Our enemy is on an exhausting, long-range mission"]

Y/N: ["And they undoubtedly used a lot of magic to take out our observers"] He said, a small smirk forming on his lips. ["If they got any magic left, it's obviously barely enough to hold some of our shots. There's a good chance we can win"] He argued, looking back at Viktoriya before looking forward once again.

Y/N/Tanya: ["But I guess losing new troops already would hurt my promotion chances"] They thought with an internal sigh, closing their eyes for a brief moment.

Tanya: ["You are to rendezvous with Lieutenant Schwarzkopf and provide support. We'll go ahead and destroy three platoons. The rest is yours"] She said while activating her comms.

Y/N: ["Man, it's rough being a salaryman"] He said with a loud sigh.

Viktoriya: ["S - Salary...?"] She asked with slight shock and slight wide-eyed.

Tanya: ["I pray unto God"] She starts, her eyes going from bright-blue to gold in an instant. ["Please, save my Fatherland"] She prays, her magic becomes purely golden, she flies forward with enough speed to create a shockwave, sending everyone behind her a bit out of control.

Y/N: ["That girl, I swear..."] He said after regaining control. He takes a deep breath before speaking. ["Oh, mistress of shadows and Madam of Despair. I pray for thee so that by the end of the battle, my blade becomes red with my enemy's blood."] As Y/N prays, his regular [E/C]-colored eyes turn into a deep color of purple.

He dashes forward like Tanya, catching up with her in no time. The enemy soldiers aim their rifles at both, who are flying side-to-side.

Sean: ["Magical signature, probably hostile, approaching at high speed"] He said, looking on his binoculars. ["Visual confirmation of enemy target! Distance, 2,000 meters! 1,800! ... 1,600... They're fast!"] He screamed, seeing Y/N with his MG 34, and Tanya with her rifle, approaching them at high speeds.

Hosman: ["They've gone mad, huh? Prepare to intercept!"] He said, raising his arm. ["Fire!"] He ordered. All of his men started shooting. Y/N and Tanya simply gain big smirks on their faces as they began to dodge their shots without effort.

The soldier with the binoculars gains a face of shock and confusion upon seeing both the Imperial soldiers dodge their shots so easily. Both Y/N and Tanya stood side-to-side, avoid their attack without being struck once.

[A/N - Sure, it's not Ufotable level, but DANM does this anime has a mind-blowing animation]

Hosman: ["What are you doing?!"] He screamed at his soldiers. Tanya and Y/N aimed their guns and pulled the triggers, causing multiple explosion-infused rounds to shot, hitting everyone but Hosman and the soldier at his side.

Sean: ["Unable to maintain flight spell! Leaving the battlefield!"] One of the soldiers screamed.

Hosman: ["Scatter and climb!"] He shouted, raising his hand and turning to look at the soldier with binocular. ["Get as high as you can!"] He said, not noticing a sadistic smirk forming on Y/N's face along with a purplish aura around a Nahkampfmesser he pulled from his waist. He looks forward only when Y/N is close to him.

Sean: ["Commander!"] The binocular-soldier screamed, jumping in front of his commander. Who saw his head being cut clean-off by Y/N.

He looks in horror as the blood of his decapitated comrade falls on top of him. Still side-to-side with Y/N, Tanya turns her body around and fires an explosive round against the headless corpse, causing it to explode along with its mount, right in front of Commander Hosman.

In the sky, the 205th assault mage company saw 11 powerful bright lights flying in the air. Out of the 11, 9 Had pinkish colors. One of them was golden, being followed by a purplish glow. Y/N and Tanya turn around, flying towards three enemy mages who started to go higher and higher in the skies.

Soldier: ["Danm it! Payback for Sean!"] One of them screamed, coming to a halt as everyone aims their rifles at Y/N and Tanya, who kept dodging it without any effort. Y/N aims his gun forward, pressing the trigger for a solid second before letting it go, causing multiple explosive-rounds to hit his enemy, causing multiple small-sized explosions. Tanya aims her rifle at the last one of them, pulling her trigger while aiming upside down, exploding the enemy soldier into nothing.

As Tanya and Y/N kept going higher and higher in the skies, the same enemy mages from before started following them both.

Hosman: ["How high are they going?!"] He asked, sweat starting to form on his face. The exhaust pipes on their rides starting to get redder and redder. ["This is our limit!"] He said, pulling his ride to a halt, along with his other soldiers. However, both Tanya and Y/N kept going higher and higher, at maximum, a bit of sweat running down their faces. ["Impossible! They're over 10,000 meters in the air!"] He said. In shock of what he's witnessing, that being two people going so high in the air without much trouble.

After going a little bit higher, Y/N and Tanya stop side to side and turn around, both panting slightly. Y/N rests his gun on his shoulder, looking at Tanya and putting a hand on her shoulder. She looks at him with her eyes half-open and nods, as if saying she was ok. Y/N removes his hand from her shoulder with a small smirk.

Y/N: ["Would you like to do the honors?"] He asked with his smirk still present, glancing at Tanya.

Tanya: She nods, but before doing anything, she and Y/N take a moment to recharge their weapons, her recharge being much faster than his due to the difference in their guns. She gently reaches towards her neck and activates her comms. ["Attention. You are trespassing on Imperial territory"]

Hosman: ["An open comms channel? And this voice... So they're just kids?"] He asked, looking up at both.

Y/N: ["This is out sky!"] He said, opening his arms. ["Our home! If you would stand against the Empire, we shall eliminate you without mercy!"] He loudly said, the purple glow on his eyes growing bigger. ["This is our task!"]

Viktoriya: ["What an amazing patriot they are..."] She said, looking up at Tanya and Y/N at a distance, with a small blush on her face.

Tanya: ["Answer us! Why do you invade the Empire, our homeland?!"] She asked with her arms open.

Hosman: ["If you want to play more, I'll give you some lead toys! Fire!"] He said, aiming towards Tanya and Y/N. However, the shot simply passes through both, as if they were static. ["A decoy!"]

A few clouds move out of the way, revealing Y/N and Tanya standing behind it. The illusion of both from before disappear, as both of them sigh.

Tanya: ["No room to negotiate, huh?"] She asked, upset about what just happened.

Hosman: ["You bitch!"] He shouts, aiming at Tanya once again and firing. But before the shot could connect, Y/N extends his arms and grabs the bullet in his hand, glaring down at them with an unsmiling face.["What the-?!"] He asked, recoiling in surprise as Y/N simply opens his hand, letting the bullet fall.

Y/N: ["Would you give me the honors, commander?"] He asked, readying his rifle.

Tanya: She nods, resting her rifle against her shoulder. ["Go ahead"] She said, flying back a little bit.

Y/N: ["Thank you"] He said, aiming his rifle down at the enemy. ["Oh, courtesan of suffering. Lady of the impure and the pain, save our homeland from those unfaithful sinners. At the end of their road..."] His eye started shaking nervously, his hands gripping his gun each time tighter. ["They shall suffer in the deepest layer of hell under your command..."] He whispers, his rings started glowing along with his eyes. The image of a purple pentagram appeared in both rings and his and his eyes.

He starts to open fire. All of his bullets fired went faster than any normal gun ever shot. Not only that but also a purple layer encased them, making it glow fiercer by the moment. From far away, the 205th squad could only watch as multiple bullets feel from the sky, almost as if it was a purple rain, bringing down its fury upon the enemies of the Empire.

Hosman: ["Are those two devils...?"] Was his lasts words, Hasan died with that doubt on his head. All the shots combined formed a massive explosion, which the 205th squad could only watch and create their shields to protect themselves from the impact.

Ihlen: ["A diffusive explosion magic, caused when magic under maximum pressure mixes with the surrounding air. Even if you dodge the impact, you can't escape the oxygen deprivation or carbon monoxide poisoning that follows"] He said, watching from far away as all the smoke starts gathering in one single place. ["We didn't need to provide any support..."] He said, watching as the bodies of the Republic soldiers crumble to dust in thin air. ["In this cruel world of wars, there's no mage you can count on like those two"]

Inside the smoke, Y/N waves his hand around his face, getting rid of all the smoke in front of him and Tanya, as both cough due to so much smoke of the explosion. Having their faces slightly black due to smoke.

Tanya: ["The battle is over!"] She said as Y/N stands at her side, keeping his gun on his shoulder. ["Surrender now, and we'll guarantee your rights as prisoners under the Treaty of Worms"] She said on the open comms. Y/N looks at her with a genuine smile. Tanya sighs deeply before flying away. Y/N gently giggles before following her.

Far away from the battlefield, in the Republican Capital, Parisee.

[Ministry of Defense]

Bientot: ["This is the record of a computation jewel"] A man spoke, walking towards a man sitting with his back to a big window, keeping his face shadowed.

[Republic Army 2nd Mage Company]
->[Lieutenant Colonel Severin Bientot]<-

Bientot: ["Which was recovered after a certain battle"] He said, putting the paper in front of the figure. It shows Tanya and Y/N, flying side to side. ["These two alone wiped out the 106th company. Their appearance was first confirmed two months ago. They're two named mages whose backgrounds are unclear, but our soldiers call them..."]

???: ["The Twin Devils of Rhine"?"] The figure asks, narrowing their eyes at the paper.

Back in the Imperial Strategic Headquarters, Erich who's holding a stick gently moves it forward on top of a map, showing two sides, a red and a blue one.

Erich: ["Redeployment of our central forces to the Rhine has been completed"]

Kurt: ["So we somehow made it in time"] He saw, exhaling smoke from his cigar. ["We put heavy demands on you, huh?"] He asked Hans who's on the other side of the table, with his arms crossed.

Hans: ["Don't worry about it. It's all for our country's sake"] He argued. Erich gently looks over his shoulder to some papers upside down.

Kurt: ["I must thank you somehow. How about one of my best bottles of wine?"] He offered. Erich gently reaches forward and grabs the paper.

Hans: ["I'm afraid I've put off drinking until our victory"]

Kurt: ["Heh, stubborn"] He said, exhaling more smoke from his cigar. Their attention is caught by a sound of something hitting the floor, they turn their attention to look at Erich, who drooped the stick he was holding. ["Lieutenant Colonel Rerugen, is something wrong?"]

Erich: ["No, it's just..."] He said, turning back to face Kurt. [" W - Well, this report says that Second Lieutenant Tanya Degurechaff and Third Lieutenant Y/N L/N were sent to the Rhine theater.

Back in the camp, the soldiers were staying, Viktoriya receives a letter from Ihlen.

Viktoriya: ["Kurst and Harald are dead?"] She asked in shock, small tears forming in her eyes.

Ihlen: ["While they were on standby, an enemy shell struck their pillbox. It's a shame"] He said, tipping his hat.

Viktoriya: ["No... Does the platoon commander knows?"] She asked, glancing from the paper, back to Ihlen.

Ihlen: ["No. Probably not yet"] He said with a loud sigh.

.
.
.

Kurt: ["The ones called "White Silver"? The two who were awarded the Silver Wings Assault Badge? It's surprising to see an ace at their age"]

Hans: ["What about them?"] He asked, still having his arms crossed.

Erich: ["I once had the opportunity to see Lieutenants Degurechaff and L/N"]

.
.
.

Viktoriya: ["Excuse me"] She said, entering Tanya's and Y/N's tent. ["There's something I want to report"] She said, with her hands on her back. Tanya was scribbling something in a piece of paper while Y/N was sitting on a chair at her side. Holding his gun close to him.

Tanya: ["What is it?"] She asked, without taking her eyes off the paper.

Viktoriya: ["Corporals Kurst and Harald-"]

Tanya/Y/N: ["They're dead?"] They asked, without even looking at Viktoriya.

Viktoriya: ["W - When did you two learn that?"] She asked in shock, sweat running down her face.

Y/N: ["It's self-evident. A pillbox doesn't move, it's an ideal target, for artillery"] He said. Gently holding his gun closer.

Tanya: ["A perfect place for men who want to die"] She completes, stopping her writing.

.
.
.

Erich: ["If I may be so forward as to give my opinion..."] He said, clenching his fist tightly.

.
.
.

Viktoriya: ["You didn't know this would happen, did you..?"] She asked in shock. Wide-eyed and sweating a lot.

.
.
.

Erich: ["They are..."]

.
.
.

Instead of replying, Tanya simply bits her nail, before a sadistic smirk appears on her face.

Viktoriya takes a step back in surprise and fear, she was about to speak, only to be silenced when she noticed the same type of smirk forming on Y/N's face.

Erich: ["Monsters in the form of children..."]

And that concludes it for the first episode of Youjo Senki! aka Saga of Tanya The Evil, aka one of my favorite animes. I'll be focusing on this fic now for a while until I'm done with the anime. After that, I'll go back to updating [Connected to You]. And after I'm done with Volume 2 of RWBY, I'll do the film of Youjo Senki.
