Lolilandia greets another day of Peaceful life. This time, it is very special one. For today celebrates its 156th Anniversary of its Victory and Independence from their ancestral enemy that now lone gone. An Alien Race trying to conquer their precious world, Anmius. At the city's capital square, the Golden Cinnamon Avenue a scene of Military Parade unfold. There unveils the next generation of Kitemond Jet Warplanes, the K-20. The newest generation of tanks, the D-54, and several others are also present. As well as improved versions of their weapons and hardware a hundred years earlier, such as the newly improved R34M, the "modernized" version of R34 Assault Rifle, now can accept both Conventional and Mana-powered Ammo. Uniforms were also improved. Unlike before that were purely fabric, they were now using the materal from a specialized Lolium metal called Cunnium, which itself, a type of Nanomachine that works like a chameleon's skin. Yet if there's one thing that left unchange, its not their tactics or doctrine, but their Military Spirit, Fanaticism and Patriotism. The Parade is overseen by both Military and Government Officials, including Premier Daria Bogdanova, Vice-Premier Margarita Krivosheina, Party General-Secretary Tania Kuznetsova and Defense-Minister Alyona Zhukova. From one side, several Non-Human veterans were also present, including former PPG Major Yulia Timoshenkova. All in all, the scene was spectacular like always. By the time the parade about to end.......

LOLINFORM Reporter: And here it goes. Ending the Parade with the Non-human Veterans marching at the Avenue. From Serdtsenograd reporting live........

2 hours later.

The Military Parade is now over, what comes next is the scene full of local Lolilandics around Golden Square Avenue converging to pay respects for the fallen. Specially to their heroic relatives. One of them was a Half-Human, whose look normal for the most part, and Half-Moth with its antennae and wings. Her name is Rimma Pugachova, who was later revealed to be Granddaughter of Masha Pugachova.

Rimma: Granny Natasha. Here. You know I cannot follow your steps because of my parents' concern. But still proud to be part of this heritage.

Elsewhere, inside the Golden Cinnamonian Palace, Higher Government Officials were lighting candles also for the Fallen Veterans at the Palace Cathedral, supervised by the Shrine Girls and the Archpriestess. After that, they went back to the Palace Proper to continue their usual work.

Moonhouse Palace, Serdtsenograd. 09:00 of morning.

Tania (on TV, Digitab and Digipods): As always, we will do whatever, the Party can, to preserve the memories and lessons brought not only by our Ancestor's Victory, but also by the tragedy of the War itself. For I believe once again. They will be helpful in shaping our Defense if one day, we will have to fight another kind like them again. I know it's tiring to remind every year, but if you ask the Veterans, they'll say the same thing. With that said. Happy Victory and Independence Day, Lolilandia. Thanks now back to work I go.

LOLINFORM Reporter: And that's the speech from the Party General-Secretary Kuznetsova. This is [Redacted] live from Moonhouse Palace. Back to you [Redacted]

----------------------------------------

Alyona: Mama. I might be different from you, but I will try my best to live up your legacy.

Lolilandic Foreign Minister: Hello Aly-chan.

Alyona: Ayo! 'sup Comrade.

Lolilandic FM: Well. We got some bad news from the Red Spider Lily.

Alyona: Its about the Red Abyss Island right? What is it this time?

Lolilandic FM: Well. Naval Fleets from Orenstia, Fairopia and NGR were dispatched this morning and encircled the entire island.

Alyona: And why this is bad news?

Lolilandic FM: Chances of them dying first is high. That's what.

Alyona: Okay. Make's sense. What else.

Lolilandic FM: Nothing new. Just Elves raising Nuclear Alert 3.

Alyona: Alright. What else I need to know.

Lolilandic FM: Well. Press Brats from LOLINFORM. They want to interview you badly.

Alyona: Pfft. Small fry issue. Leave it to me, Comrade.

Lolilandic FM: Very well. Break a leg in the interview after lunch.

Office of the Ministry of Defence. Lilyagrad, Hoomun ESR. 02:00 of afternoon.

Alyona waited for the LOLINFORM reporters, and came two hours later after lunch. Not what it matters to her anyway. The latter group arrive and starts the interview.

LOLINFORM Reporter: Okay, Marshal Zhukova. What are the impressions to your Mother. Are you going to be like her?

Alyona: First of all, maybe. I wanna live up to her legacy and continue from where she left off, while keeping being me. My own way, my own path. I wanna use her as my guide in honoring the Military Career line of the Salyukova-Zhukova Family. As for my impression. She is my role model. Even though our bond time lessen as I grow up, she still push herself to be the best Mom I have. Yeah I don't understand it at first. But I slowly do now. All I can say, for the better words. I'm proud of her. Thank you.

LOLINFORM Reporter: Okay. Thanks for the time. Aaaaand cut.

Alyona: Phew. If you're done now please leave. I have Military Districts to drop by in the next minutes.

After that. The Defense Minister visited the Military Districts. Not for simply inspection, but to talk regarding the Red Abyss Island fiasco. By the time she was about to head back to Serdtsenograd, she receive call from the Premier through Digipod.

Daria: Comrade Marshal.

Alyona: Yes, Premier?

Daria: Is it true the allies just encircled the Island?

Alyona: Yes. I was about to talk to them though.

Daria: Very well. Were are you at?

Alyona: Eastern Military District, Morskochelovek ESR.

Daria: Tell them to raise Alarm to Level 4.

Alyona: Huh? Why for?

Daria: Intel straight from the Archpriestess. Says the Eastern Regions of our Motherland will bear the invasion from the alleged Dimensional Crack thing.

Alyona: I dunno what's going on. But okay.

Daria: I know how skeptic you are on this issue. But please be prepared.

Alyona: I know that. I just hope we can do Diplomacy instead of full Military Might. I don't wanna destroy the other side of the crack without knowing its identity.

Daria: Very well.

And just like that. The Defense-Minister puts the Eastern Lolilandic Military District to Alert 4, the second highest National Level set by the Higher Government. After that, Alyona also inform the One United Party to "prepare for possible Diplomatic Adventure" in the other side of the crack. In truth. Nobody knows what lies to the situation on Red Abyss Island itself. But hope they weren't worst than the Aliens they've destroyed 156 years ago. And they weren't alone in monitoring the Island fiasco. But also them as well.

Divine Realm

Death Goddess Smerta: So. The rumors were true. After 120 years. Best brace for impact like Navy Folks would say.

Time Goddess Vrema: Yeah. But hoping for Diplomacy was just weird. Do they know how dangerous these.... Species are?

Technological Goddess Cinnamonia: They were. They always are. But as they said, they don't wanna destroy that world without knowing them first.

Nature Goddess Leafisia: Agree. Lolilandia might find that otherworld useful for their growth. You know.

Land Goddess Terra: With that said. Should we interfere or leave them doing all the dirty work?

Technological Goddess Cinnamonia: Yes. Unless Gods or Goddesses of that world took action against the Anmius as well.

Everyone: *nods and chatters in agreement*

Technological Goddess Cinnamonia: Until the actual event comes, observation will continue in a strict manner.

And just like that, the issue 120 years ago now alive again. Before this, the People's Republic of Elflandia went on a shopping spree of Missiles, and it payed off, way way too late. Time passed and nothing happens. By the time its evening, the Eastern Lolilandic Military District deploy most of its Tanks and Armor near the "Shoe Group of Islands" in the further east of Morskochelovek ESR.

Tiptoe Island, Shoe Group of Islands. Morskochelovek ESR. 08:00 of evening.

LPA Commander: Pay attention, Comrades. This will be a hot shitstorm.

LPA Troops: Yes, Comrade Commander.

And just like that, the People's Federal Republic of Lolilandia, while successfully celebrates its 156th Anniversary of Victory and Independence against a strong, aggressively hostile Aliens it will face another crisis from the Red Abyss Island. This time, from potential enemies that unjustly linked into their realm of Anmius. Afterall, while this ordeal is unwanted, this creates the challenge. How far Lolilandia will go to keep itself as a Powerful Country. How far it will took to maintain of being a Superpower it worked so hard for many years. Will it tread to pure destruction? Or with necessary force combined with peaceful concessions?

To be continued.
