Shortly before noon, television channels across Germany were switched on one by one, following the announcement that the President would be speaking about the events of the last 24 hours.
"My dear fellow citizens, it is no mystery to anyone about the mysterious events that have occurred in the last 24 hours since this halo appeared, Germany has plunged into the complete unknown."
I can therefore say that on 15 December 2021 Germany left the earth and wandered off into a totally unknown world, leaving in its wake only the brave soldier abroad and our fellow citizens who had gone abroad for the end of the year, they will now be gone forever.
On this day we mourn our missing, but this will enable us to face the trials that lie ahead.
I declare that today until the economy is stabilised we are freezing all prices at what they were yesterday air traffic remains closed to international flights use a car only when strictly necessary give preference to public transport a curfew has been temporarily introduced from 7pm..."
Arcus capital
The journey to the royal palace went smoothly as the delegation observed that the country resembled a battlefield with its share of destroyed and even burnt buildings, but one thing caught the attention of the whole delegation and that was to see inhabitants with the physical features of animals.
The royal palace was very large, adorned with gold and luxurious gardens as far as the eye could see.
Once the carriages arrived at the palace gates, the delegation was greeted by an alley of servants and handmaidens.
After passing through the entrance, the delegation took a look inside the palace, where the grandiose decorations were reminiscent in places of the luxury of Versailles.
They were then led into the throne room, where a woman with a warrior look was seated.
"I am Queen Lusvel Lightmore and I welcome you, gentlemen, from Germany."
"This is an honour for us."
"Now that you are here we would like to know what are your intentions?"
The question was rather expected after the helicopter flight demonstration he had witnessed on their arrival.
"Yesterday, following an unknown event in our nation's skies, we were mysteriously transferred to this part of the world, so our government is sending us here urgently to make initial contact with the locals to set up trade in agricultural produce and resources."
The Queen and her consuls looked satisfied, contrary to what the Germans had expected.
"So the invocation worked." She murmured.
"Luckily we know the reason for your transfer to this world."
This simple sentence aroused the curiosity of the diplomats.
"A few passages ago (day) we discovered a powerful summoning spell and, given the situation in our country, we took the initiative of summoning a hero to save us from the powerful demons ravaging the entire continent and its surroundings.
"We're sorry, we weren't thinking of an entire country coming instead of just one person."
The group was astonished by the Queen's statement.
"This news is more than surprising and unexpected for us, but these demons have been mentioned several times now if you could tell us about them."
Then one of the Queen's assistants placed a card on a table.

Once the map had been unfolded, the queen began to speak.
"The demons have always lived on the Dimole islands, for centuries and centuries they were different kingdoms perfecting their weapons to wage war against each other, they built extremely powerful weapons but it was only 2 years ago that a talented warlord managed to unite all the demons, his thirst for conquest not being quenched he turned to the continent by invading the elves and dwarves who were reputed to be very powerful."Then a mage approached the map and projected a red light on certain borders.
"You can now see the last known area of influence of the demons." He mage exclaimed.
After the delegation had carefully observed the map, the queen knelt down next to the diplomats [https://img.wattpad.com/d456f04bf0e92b0a25960c21bdc2438988bd782e/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f703775723446557064496f3638513d3d2d313338363731313831332e313738616661656230373464316138623931353630373831333439342e706e67?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]
After the delegation had carefully observed the map, the queen knelt down next to the diplomats.
"I was able to see when that your invocation was not a waste, so I beg you in my name and that of my husband to save us from this demon."
Roman observed the queen, who had a glimmer of hope.
"I and my colleagues have seen the state your people are in, this demon must be giving you a hard time but I'm afraid to tell you that our country would rather not enter into a war at this time."
"What do you mean?!" Asks the queen.
"There are many reasons for this, but the main one is the same one that brought us here, in our world trade was an obligation to keep our society going, now if we cut it off our country risks famine, economic and energy crises..."
"If that's all, we can arrange to start trading with you.
Despite the unease that had been created, the diplomacy continued, but everything came to an
abrupt halt when all the city's bells began to ring simultaneously.
"Everyone to shelter!" Cried the Queen.
"What on earth is going on?"
The queen seemed to panic at the sound of the bells.
"It's the demons."
"Following that, there was the simultaneous and incessant buzzing of several engines."
~Helicopter, this is Roman. What's happening outside?~
~It's impressive, there are hundreds of planes flying over the capital, lots of bombers escorted by fighters, I don't know what their target is but it's not going to be pretty.~
The noise of the engines soon faded away, followed by the sound of city bells, and soon the castle's underground passages began to empty out and activities resumed their normal course, as the Queen approached Roman.
"Excuse me, Mr Roman, but as you can see from the situation that has just unfolded, we're going to have to postpone the session until my husband returns.
A carriage is waiting at the entrance to take you to a local inn." Explaining the queen.
"We understand the situation and will ask our country to see what can be done." Roman replied.
Berlin Bundestag Hall 2 p.m.
The deputies were ready to begin the post-transfer session.
"Your attention please, the purpose of today's session will be to establish measures for the country's future in this other world."
A series of documents was presented to the deputies on the characteristics of the country in terms of defence production and consumption, and one of the documents that attracted the most attention was the report from the diplomats on mission in Farosse.
"As you can see from this report by our diplomats on the kingdom of Farosse, which is the main instigator of our situation, it is currently in a precarious situation, cornered by an overwhelming foreign power that seems hostile to all nations, so we will have to deal with them with the utmost caution..."
This session on for a good hour, concluding with a series of reforms or initiatives concerning the nation as a whole.
-German nationality to be given to any foreigner stranded in the country.
-Increase in army finances.
-Increase in the budget of the DLR (German Aerospace Centre)
-Ban on crossing the border without authorisation.
-Everyone entering or leaving the country must undergo quarantine and a medical examination.
-Funding for the arms industry.
-Subsidies for the electronics industry.
Volciste Empire
The demon king listened as the messenger read out the report on the hero's assassination mission, and as the report progressed the king became angry at the catastrophic way the summoning had gone.
"This nation represents a greater threat than the elves, I want you to divert the fleet of subjugation of the kingdom of Farosse and direct it towards the territory of this country, we will need to prepare a supply line."
"Very well, Your Highness, I'll notify the fleet immediately." The messenger began to walk away when he was called out by the King.
"One important thing all enemy technology must be brought back for further study." The king was now alone in the room looking at photographs of this new country.

"The sooner I get rid of you, the sooner the continent will be mine.
Try not to make it too difficult for me, summon them."
Berlin 5pm
The Chancellor had brought together the various diplomats from all the embassies, accompanied by military representatives from the foreign bases.
"Hello everyone, I think you've all seen the news about the loss of external communications, as we've seen Germany has been sent to another world."
"Just now a session was held in the Bundestag where it was decided to offer nationality to all foreigners trapped with the country, we have also decided to close the embassies that no longer have any use without your respective countries."
The various diplomats talked amongst themselves but nobody seemed to object to what the Chancellor was saying.
"Now the second subject that has been established is that as you know there are a certain number of foreign soldiers in different bases with the cut-off from the outside world, we have taken the decision to provide you with a salary, accommodation and maintenance of equipment at our expense, where you will retain your independence and your chain of command, but in return we would like to be able to have access to your services if necessary."
The Americans reacted immediately to the statement.
"It is out of the question to put ourselves under your orders, we will remain faithful to our country." Seeing this, the American diplomats as well as the French and Dutch soldiers tried to reason with them.
"But come on, let's be reasonable, it's in our best interest to accept. If you refuse, who will pay your men or maintain your equipment?
You would only be abandoning your bases, and they will definitely reassign them.
So, honestly, being at their beck and call from time to time is the least we can grant them."
After some thought, the American soldiers accepted the offer.
Arcus capital
18th December 2021
18th passage 3 Adarr 1649
After several days' travel, the King finally arrived in the capital, where German diplomats were waiting for him.
"Home at last." He said.
It wasn't long before the German diplomats showed up.
"I'm King Vermon II, so I'm going to take care of the rest of the diplomacy. I've been told at length about the trade agreement you wanted to establish, but my question is what can my kingdom gain from this exchange?"
"It's very simple, our country is offering you goods such as pharmaceuticals, textiles, alcohol as well as technology used by the public... At least that's what was planned."
"What do you mean?"
"Our country has no intention of entering into a war for the moment, but on seeing images of these planes ready to bomb you, our country has decided to sell you some of our firearms and to train your senior military officers in their use."
The king was speechless at Roman's statement.
"That's fabulous and how quickly could your country start trading?"
"That's not obvious, but once the trade treaty has been signed, the first ship could arrive within a week."
"Interesting so know that your country will be happy to know that we agree to trade with you, now let's get on with what your country wants to propose." Continued the king.
The negotiations continued as the king accepted a significant portion of what Germany had proposed.
The session was nearing its end when the king made a proposal to the diplomat.
"There is going to be a session of the Continental Union in a few passages (days), this brings together all the countries of the continent and the surrounding islands, it leads to cooperation and the maintenance of peace between other nations, it would be an opportunity for your country to establish relations with other countries."
Following this statement Roman and his colleagues spoke amongst themselves.
"What do you think?"
"It sounds like a kind of European Union."
"That would be a good idea to propose to the government.
"It would save a lot of expense to go through all the contacts one by one."
"I've got the impression that he's not telling us everything about this Continental Union."
After this time when the diplomats talked amongst themselves Roman took the floor.
"We will inform our government of this proposal and get back to you as soon as possible." Shortly after these words, the talks ended with the result of establishing a trade route, an embassy in each country and an offer of medical assistance at the Farosse border, as well as authorisation to prospect for resources...

Day was dawning for the Demon Submission fleet, which had stopped earlier in the evening after detecting a landmass that was not on any map, as the sun lit up the deck of the Mefar aircraft carrier and a reconnaissance plane set off in the direction of the island.

After 30 minutes of flight, the mission went smoothly and finally the plane was back in the field of vision of everyone on board, bringing back with it images taken during the flight.
On board his battleship, Admiral Ethiuc and the rest of the command staff were meeting following the pilot's report.
The admiral came into the room with an air of good humour.
"We finally have the photos of the reconnaissance plane." He placed the photos on the table.
"As you can see from this photo, this archipelago will be easy to capture with our forces."
"What an affront it is Farosser do to the empire by invoking such a country [https://img.wattpad.com/f8c8544001a8c06ac7a69efbca4a14886f419336/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f68794178554a316a4e7a777058513d3d2d313338363731313831332e3137386336326432373731376630343536323639373431363730312e706e67?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]
"What an affront it is Farossians do to the empire by invoking such a country."
"Silence! The empire is sending us to get rid of the vermin that have appeared as quickly as possible, luckily we've stumbled across one of their bases, so we're not far away."
Afterwards they all looked closely at the photos.
"I see they don't have any anti-aircraft defences, so we'll just need to neutralise their planes before they take off."
After only ten minutes or so a strategy had been prepared and the planes were already starting to line up on the runway.
"Glory to the empire, glory to the empire." Could be heard from the decks of the aircraft carriers as the first planes took off.
Heligoland 9am
It was a rather peaceful morning on the archipelago, since the halo disaster air traffic had slowed down and the panic of the first few days had subsided, the inhabitants were going out into the streets when suddenly a noise broke the calm of the morning, the inhabitants outside looking in the same direction, in the distance the sky was blackened by hundreds of planes heading towards the island.

More and more inhabitants watched the plane before some of them began to dive towards the island, followed by an explosion in the port as well as dozens of others, which quickly caused a large fire.
The inhabitants ran for cover while some were shot down by the planes diving towards them. From the island's radio tower, employees watched helplessly as the island was ravaged.
"Bloody hell!" Once the stupefaction and fear of what was in front of them had subsided, they headed for the radio station.
~Heligoland to continent the ships spotted in the evening send planes that att~
Without having had time to finish a bomb hit the building causing a strong white light engulfing the occupants and destroying the radio tower.
On the aerodrome on the small island of Düne, some people watch the main island or foreign planes attack from the air.
"It was like a dream." Can be heard coming from the pilots, some seeing the planes coming towards them and starting to flee.
"They're coming here fast we've got to get to cover." Some rushed to the planes on the tarmac, being called mad by those who had taken refuge in the building.
"Let's take off." Said the pilot in the first plane to take off before the wheels came off the ground.
"Yes, I've done it now, we've got to get out of this mess."
Suddenly the plane turned into a ball of fire, followed shortly afterwards by those on the runway, all this happening under the helpless gaze of their colleague trapped in the building.
Terror reigned from then on as calm began to return following the departure of the planes from the sky, the inhabitants tried to help the injured by being helped by the firemen who were already far too overwhelmed to see what was on the horizon.
To the north of the island a large number of boats landed on the beaches of the islands, the inhabitants, having heard an exchange of fire, began to flee, taking refuge wherever they could while the Volciste troops advanced without too much resistance, killing anyone who was unlucky enough to escape from the armed troops.
On the island of Düne, all those who had survived the air raid saw the soldiers break down the door, firing on those closest to them while capturing those who had been lucky enough to survive.
The invasion came to an end after they had entered the city streets with little difficulty, leaving more than 200 dead.
In the distance, soldiers hoisted a flag on the mast that held the German flag.

In the late morning an endless convoy of ships could be seen docking on what was left of the harbour, unloading soldiers, weapons and tanks.
Admiral Ethiuc landed on the main island shortly after capturing the islands, and as he walked he got closer to the people who had been captured on the airbase.
"So that's what these people are like, they're just simple humans. Soldier, send a message to the king, he'll be happy to know that we've won the first battle against invoke them."
