After the their battle with the demons, Yona and Kaynard were resting at their home, when the demon king decleared war against the country of Lasfortia. The invasion begun shortly after Kaynard and Yona managed to force the demons on retreating.
The demon army killed anyone who resisted their invasion, the army of Lasfortia kingdom failed to repel the invasion of the demon and slowly the country started to lose it's military might. The neioghboring country of silveria sent a small company of soldiers along with an elite group of adventurers to aid the country, but it still wasn't enough to repel the demon army's invasion.
But the invasion of the demons was repelled by the might human empire called the Kobayashii Shougunate. The demons was forced to withdraw their invasion on Lasfortia. But the demons refuse to return the land which they took back to the country of Lasfortia, thus the country of Lasfortia didn't manage to recover from their losses.
The once mighty country of Lasfortia which was known for their military might, suffered a bitter defeat in the hands of the demons. During this war four million nine hundred thousand soldiers died in battle and one hundred thousand barely survived.
As Yona was eating a piece of break, she heard the footsteps of many people outside the door, and a few moments later, someone begun knocking on the door. Kaynard opened the door and was surprised to see that fifty city guards are outside his doorstep, with a serious look on his face he asked the captain of the guards.
"What do you want?"(Kaynard)
The Captain of the city guard handed Kaynard a letter and he said.
"The king wishes to see you Lord Kaynard, this a direct order from the king, you are to report to the royal palace immediately."(Captain)
Kaynard reveals a troubled look on his face and he told the captian while revealing an annoyed look on his face.
"Fine, but can you dispatch the city guard to guard my house while I'm gone?"(Kaynard)
"As you wish Lord Kaynard."(Captain)
Kaynard quickly closed the door, and he noticed that Yona was standing behind him, with a serious look on her face Yona said.
"I'm coming with you."(Yona)
Kaynard shook his head and he lightly pats her head.
"It's too dangerous, I'm guessing that the king wants me to participate in the war, I might not return from the battlefield, but I don't want you to die so stay here."(Kaynard)
Yona shook her head and she shouted.
"I don't want you do die, I'll do everything I can to protect you and I know that you'll do the same for me. So please let me come along with you."(Yona)

"Fine, but if things becomes dangerous I want you to run, as fast as you can. Can you promise me that?"(Kaynard)
"I promise."(Yona)
And the two started their preparations to go to the capital city of Ragunia. After two days of travelling the two finally arrived at the royal palace, Kaynard reveals the letter with the signiture of the king to the palace guard and thus allowing them to enter the royal palace. At the throne room Kaynard is greeted by the king of Lasfortia Elmore Gracious Lasfortia.
"What's going on your majesty? Why did you summon me to the royal capital without stating the reason why I'm summoned."(Kaynard)
The King stood up from his throne and he said.
"We need you to train the newly recruited soldiers on becoming paladins, the demon army has invaded us and I doubt that we'll be able to repel them if they invade us once more, so we need to prepare, I order you to train the soldiers of the country the arts of the dragon's soul."(Elmore)
After the shougunate intefered with the invasion on Lasfortia, the demon king's army invaded the neighboring countries including the Republic of Silveria. Most of the people who resisted the invasion were all killed.
They are now trying to rebuild their army by forcing every family inside the country to enlist one person from their family to become a soldier.
But that didn't solve their problems, some of the families left the country to go to the shougunate's lands and apply for citizenship there. The king faced Kaynard with a serious look on his face, Kaynard reveals a serious look as he told the king.
"This country is done for. There's no way for me to stop the demons invasion on our own, the soldiers of the country can't possibly match the demons in strength. So how are we going to win!"(Kaynard)
"The shougunate offered us protection, in exchange for our loyalty, if we agree then the shougunate will absorb Lasfortia into their land, but I think it's better if I just agree to their demands
"The shougunate offered us to swear that we show absolute loyalty to them and we will be forced to become apart of their lands but it's for the best if they can protect us from the demons then I'm willing to lose my title as King of lasfortia so that I can protect my people."(Elmore)
"I admire your willingness to lose your power over this country to protect your people so I guess we can still help your fight against the demons."(Kaynard)
And now Yona and Kaynard must start on training the soldiers of Lasfortia in order to make the country stronger so that the demons will not attack them again.
