The Empire has been at war with demons for many years. The wars were always fought at the borders of the empire, keeping the citizens safe but recently demons were able to enter inside the empire resulting in mass murders.

Arthur also lived in this era. He was an adopted child and worked as a postman in the town. He lived happily with his family and expected nothing more but little did he know that he would be the ending point of this long held war.

Join this adventure of Arthur of becoming the greatest soldier whose name will be remembered for eternity.

"Marghetta Shwalswerg, Unit 06 Captain."


A man with a large body was sitting at the centre, Major General Rook Hols.


"Sorry for disturbing you Major General but I am here-"


He passed a document on the table with his signature on it. It was the request application I submitted a week ago to get permission to visit the military graveyard.


I picked up the document from the table.


"It's been 5 years. Do you still blame yourself Marghetta?"


I stayed silent staring at the document in my hands. I couldn't answer the question.


'Sigh' "You know it was not your mistake and he wouldn't have blamed you either."


My voice was blocked by emerging emotions.


"Brigadier General Rook, mission accomplished. I can accept other available missions too."


"Haha, well done Marghetta, but you need to rest too. You have to take take care of your body."


"My body is in good condition General, I can do more. I want to join Lieutenant Colonel Arthur's squad, so I need to work hard."


Her eyes were always filled with energy in the past. Those eyes are dull now.


After submitting the document to the soldier at the gate, I entered the cemetery. It was winter, so snow can be seen here and there.


This Cemetery is a military protected place, which honors the death of the soldiers who died serving the Empire. 


I walked deeper into the cemetery. The suffocating feeling increases as I move.


'Lieutenant General Arthur, 1600 - 0 A.W.'


The grave was in front of me. Lieutenant's grave. There were many flowers placed on the grave. He was respected and loved by many.


He died after the Cross Front War due to deep injuries, or most people believed so. But I know the truth, he did suicide, in front of me.


I sat beside the grave and removed the snow stacked on it.


"I am 25 now and have been promoted to Captain rank, Lieutenant. Still I am far behind you. But I am working hard you know, one day I will surpass you, I definitely will. Just you wait and se-e.....


..Ah!! here, I brought your-OUR favourite flower Lieutenant Genral Arthur. Carnation. Our favouri-.."


I have been coming here for the past 4 years, seeing the same grave every year. Giving the same flower. Talking nonsense.


I have been blaming myself for all these years. If only...If..o-only I was a little more dependa...-


Only the sound of falling snow and a girl's emotions could be heard in the silent cemetery.


Hello there readers! This side Is_Swift. This is my first novel, so yeah I am inexperienced but this is a story I wanted to write for a long time. I am a big fan of fantasy war novels btw. I don't know how it will turn out in the future, but I will write with the best of my ability to make you immersed in this world. And.. I wanted to add, it's a slow paced story, so maybe sometimes it may bore you, but I seriously want to make you a part of this world. So please bear with me. And yeah of course you can write your reviews, suggestion on grammar or anything you like. I am always open to improving my writing.
