Lucinia City Coast, Elmstacia Empire
One of the ships of the Elmstacian Navy, which was fortifying the coast, received a report through a faith shell from a military officer who had been dispatched to the Sawagiri, one of the ships of the 13th Escort Squadron, to report on the situation.
"The Crossnellyard Fleet has been defeated. The Japanese forces has won."
The soldiers were relieved to hear this news from the other side of the shell.
"I knew it... Thank you! You go back on the Japanese ship. Thanks for your help."
The Elmstacian admiral, the feline beastman Illinor Dermis, thanked the military officer who had contacted him, and then cut off the communication. The report of the Japanese victory reached the ears of the evacuated citizens of Lucinia, who praised the Japanese victory with shouts of jubilation.

Lithianburg, Crossnellyard Empire
Two days after the Battle of Glenkia Peninsula, the 27th Emperor Alphon I received a report from his office.
"Our fleet has been defeated...? Against only four ships!?"
"Yes... That is what I have been informed."
Albrecht Freibranden, the leader of the Imperial Domain Army, replied with a deflated look on his face as the Emperor looked on in astonishment. Alphon pauses for a moment, and then inquired about the details of the situation.
"Have we been annihilated...!?"
"N-no, Your Majesty! However, about a third of the fleet was sunk and all the dragons were killed. Also, that there was no enemy pursuit," Albrecht replied, shaking his head.
Alphon's brow furrowed and his anger deepened at his words. Albrecht swallowed hard at the sight of him.
"Cowards..." Alphon growled.
The Lucinia Base was a potential threat to their future plans to organize a large fleet and invade the Japanese mainland. If they were to dispatch a large fleet of troops to a distant island nation in the Far East, it would leave the country in a military vacuum, even if only temporarily.
"Any movement in other countries...?" Alphon asked.
At present, fleets are being dispatched to Miket Tirith from the ports of countries that have announced their participation in the Holy War, and their purpose is to participate in the invasion of the Japanese mainland. He was concerned that the failure of the Crossnellyard Army, the main force in the Holy War, to capture the Lucinia Base might cause countries to withdraw from the war.
"No, nothing so far..." Albrecht replied.
A few hours later, the world learned of the defeat of the Crossnellyard fleet through a report by the Telecommunications Company.

Same day
King's Office, Hoffenom, capital of the Lysania Kingdom
The Lysania Kingdom... this country and the other Irulan states in the southwestern part of the Juperia Continent were founded by the participants of the Riexpunatio (movement to reclaim the lost land), or the leaders of the Indoctrination Army, which had been conducted by the Holy Rovance Papal State since about 400 years ago. These countries are commonly referred to as "Indoctrination Army States," and other major states include the County of Hircea, Duchy of Lievant, and County of Januyai. They are, so to speak, the child states of the Papal State, and their national policy is to threaten the cultural sphere of the Arabanne Empire under the backing of the Pope, and to continue to expand its territory. The main source of their power is the fact that they are backed by the Crossnellyard Empire, the largest empire in the world.
