The Eagle Rises in a new world

Looming Flames of Death

The ocean east of the continent of Mu, Second Civilization Area

The skies above are clear and sunny and waves gently billowed across the sea. Looking down on the beautiful ocean from above, a single beautiful line ran across it.

Yaga, captain of the Chita,a Russian flagged automobile freighter,was looking out towards the sea from the bridge. With the horizon so far away, the ocean felt much wider than back on earth.

"We will soon reach Mu, huh..."

The Cruiser is cruising about 300km east of the continent of Mu. Filled to the brim with Russia made automobiles and autobikes, their destination is the country of Mu.

"The world has been reeking of war these days... It'd be nice if nothing happens... Hm?"

A small grain of something was visible over the sky.

"Maybe an aircraft from Mu?"

The grain-like aircraft gradually became bigger and then it flew past the ship. If a Russian person were to look at it, they'd think of it as some Japanese plane.

"What's that?"

"A fighter?...Wait that's mean an enemy right?"

The crew talked amongst themselves.

The captain, upon seeing the aircraft, sweated profusely.

"That's not one of Mu's! Get the radio! Get me the radio, quick!"

Captain Yaga couldn't afford to remain calm. There was the obvious fact that it was an enemy plane nearby and that the Mu homeland was 300km away.Furthermore, from what he had heard, Mu's military couldn't win a single battle over the Gra Valkas Empire.Armed with 4 twin 47mm cannons for multi purpose,they quickly got to action to protect themselves

The cargo ship sends out a distress signal.

A prototype floatplane fighter from the submarine E-400 24, 2nd Submarine Fleet, Gra Valkas Empire

The plane is a prototype fighter based on the Antares carrier-based fighter that has foldable wings and buoyant floats to allow it to float on the ocean. Stored away in the hangar of a giant E-400 submarine, it unfolded its wings over the ocean and flew off to scout for targets. If a person on earth that is slightly knowledgeable of the old army sees it, it would look similar to a Type 2 floatplane fighter.

"Hehehe... Gotcha!!"

The pilot, Astor, licked his lips. He remembers the past. Aiming for the Imperial Air Corps, he was proud of the day when he passed the examination to become a pilot.He thought that surely they would assign him to the aircraft carrier squadrons,allowing him to freely move about in the skies of the other world and become a soaring soldier for the empire's grand global conquest.

However, he was assigned to pilot a prototype floatplane fighter that was slower than an Antares. What's worse was that he had to search for enemies for the submarine to target: a boring, mediocre job. He was stressed and hungry for a chance to fight with the enemy. There was no doubt that the ship bearing that flag on it was a ship of the enemy,Russia.

He promptly reported his position back to the mothership and went for the attack. He felt a blood-seething arousal from finally experiencing his first combat action.

"It's so big..."

The enemy merchant ship was significantly bigger than the empire's merchant ships, appearing quite advanced. Usually, there would be many people who are opposed to conducting attacks against merchant ships. However, he was too thrilled to think about it deeply and proceeded to attack.
