The Roble Holy Kingdom, usually simply referred to as "The Holy Kingdom," was founded about 200 years ago, not long after the Evil Deities' reign of terror had ended.[1] It is marked haphazardly on maps of the New World. Its land is divided into north and south halves by the sea, but the halves are not completely separate; rather, a gigantic bay, 40 kilometers long and 200 kilometers wide, made its geography look like a U turned on its side. For this reason, some refer to them as different nations; the "Northern Holy Kingdom" and "Southern Holy Kingdom." The Holy Kingdom's national hero is said to be a Valkyrie Knight, wielding a sacred blade.

Calca Bessarez sits on the throne.
Holy Queen, Calca Bessarez.
Due to her low place in the order of succession - only males had inherited the Holy Kingdom until now - she should never have taken the position of Holy Queen. However, due to two qualities she had, the crown had eventually been placed upon her brow.
The first was her beautiful looks. Her face was as beautiful as a freshly-bloomed flower, filled with cuteness and dignity, and it was praised as "the treasure of Roble," while her radiant, vibrant long hair was like threads of spun gold. Since it resembled an angel's halo, many who saw her gentle smile went on to describe her as a saint.
The other quality was her excellence as a divine magic caster. She was a genius who could use fourth-tier spells at the tender age of fifteen, and she had ascended to the throne with the firm backing of the previous Holy King and the temples.
Almost ten years had passed since then, while certain voices disapproved of her excessive kindness, she had not made any mistakes which could be considered critical and thus she had ruled the Holy Kingdom to this day. However, this rule was not solid, and embers smoldered out of sight.
A soldier came there.
"My Queen, some people have come to see you. They claim to be from a country called the Empire of Hope."
"I have never heard of this country before?"
Said a woman with brown hair.
While she was as beautiful as the Holy Queen, her eyes contained a cold, razor-sharp look, like the edge of a blade. She was dressed in a suit of silvery full plate armor and a surcoat. These were the traditional vestments of the Paladin Order's Captain, an ancient article of magical masterwork. The most important thing was the sword at her waist, whose name was known to everyone in the Holy Kingdom.
It was renowned as one of the four Holy Swords, the holy sword Safalrisia.
One of the Thirteen Heroes, known as Black Knight, was said to have carried four swords - the evil blade Hyumilis, the demonic blade Kilineyram, the blade of rot Crocdabal, and the fatal blade Sfeiz. This was one of the four swords which existed as a counterpart to them. Incidentally, the other three holy swords were known as the sword of law, the sword of justice, and the sword of life.
Wielding a powerful sword often led to one becoming drunk on its power and neglecting the fundamentals of swordsmanship. Therefore, the fact that she carried that sword which she would normally never carry was a sign of her unshakable determination to join the upcoming battle, and to win it.
Her name was Remedios Custodio.
She was a close friend of Calca, and as the strongest Captain of the order in history, a feat founded upon her fighting prowess. She was "White" of the Nine Colors.
"Yep I haven't heard of this country either? Could they come from the center of the continent?"
The person going ufufufufu in an indecent way was a woman.
While the shape of her eyes and mouth varied slightly, her face still bore a close resemblance to that of Remedios. However, those faint differences were enough to change the impression others had of her. She always looked like she was plotting something - or in less polite terms, that she was surrounded by a sinister air.
She was Remedios's sister, younger than her by two years, Queralt Custodio.
She was the high priestess of the temples, and leader of the priesthood.
It was public knowledge that she could use divine magic of the fourth tier.
However, that was but a deception; those close to her knew that she could cast fifth tier spells.
Incidentally, she was not one of the Nine Colors. While the temples were under the Holy Queen, it was government policy not to bestow a Color title on one of their number in order to avoid problems with the balance of power.
These sisters were known as the genius Custodio sisters, the twin wings of the Holy Queen.
Until now, many nobles had their doubts about Calca's ascension to the throne as a female, and they wondered if she had done something with or to the sisters. Therefore, they often spoke ill of all three of them at the same time.
While many rumors about them had been cleared up, one particular piece of gossip remained. All three of them were unmarried - without so much as a male lover - and so it was said that their relationship was anything but ordinary. However much Calca denied it, she could not shake herself free of that rumor, and it was a major source of frustration for her.
"Hmmm.... bring them on."
"Of course, my queen."
The soldier left.
The Holy Kingdom was invaded by Demi humans. So Queen did not think that some country people would come to meet her at this time .
After some time some people came.
Everyone in the room looks at these people. Because they were weird.
Among these arrivals, Calca spots a 25-year-old man dressed in strange clothing. which they have never seen before. Behind him were a few other men who looked like they were made of steel. So Calca considered that they might be golems.
Remedios asked them, "Who are you?What's the reason for coming here?"
"Ah Remedios, they are our guests here. Do not mistreat them."
Calca said with a smile
"Welcome to our country. I am Calca Bessarez, Queen of the Holy Kingdom. May I know about you? I have never heard of a country called the Empire of Hope."
Edward who had already tried to adapt himself as a leader said with a smile
"We are from another planet"
