In the anime version, the battle took place in the Fata Grande airspace, where the Erste Empire is located, but in the app version, the setting moves from the Fata Grande airspace to a new airspace, the Nar Grande airspace. This new airspace contains never-before-seen islands and various countries. There are also plenty of new characters with their own reasons! In this article, we will introduce the characters that appear in this new story, "The Dawn Sky Arc"!
Full-blown tsundere! Sturm can't help but worry about Drunk!

After being caught off guard by his opponent and Drunk being kidnapped, Sturm tries to act in a panic that is unthinkable from his usual behavior. He asks Gran and the others to help him find Drunk, and when Drunk is nearby, he can't sit still and goes ahead on his own. If an ally tries to take a detour or slow them down, he'll glare at them and say harsh words. How many times did Sturm say "Drunk..." out of concern in the "Dawn Sky" arc?
Even if he gets caught, Drunk doesn't give up

Drunk was caught by the enemy and put in a cell, but he could have easily managed the key. When Io and her friends, who were supposed to have come to help him, were caught and put in the same cell, he easily opened the lock and escaped. But this is where Drunk becomes tricky. He lets Io and the others escape first, but instead of joining them he talks about a job with one of the Knights of the Seven Stars who is nearby, the "Golden Knight." He later reunites with the others, but needless to say he gets stabbed multiple times by an embarrassed Sturm.
Cain, a young man who is committed to peaceful resolution without fighting

Cain is the young man Gran and Vy first meet when they arrive at the Nar Grande airspace. Gran and his friends arrive as they are having some sort of trouble with bandits, and when Cain sees them, he talks to Gran, who he is meeting for the first time, as if to involve him in the trouble. At first, he seems like a light-hearted and frivolous character, but his strategies are always about peaceful resolution. He avoids being in the lead as much as possible and is always thinking of the best way to avoid injuries or deaths. This is no surprise, as Cain was already a general in the Kingdom of Idelba at just 22 years old.

The boss of the first bandit group you encounter in the Nar Grande airspace. At first glance, he seems like a typical muscle-brained character, but he was originally a member of the Torrid Kingdom army and is very smart. He is strict with the islanders and often takes them hostage. However, he doesn't take women and children hostage, only lays hands on adult men, and protects the islanders from monsters. His biggest flaw is that he makes his subordinates call him "King." It's like he's from some kind of end-of-the-century time.
Oukisu, a girl who changed her name and started walking her own path

In the Blue Girl arc, Oukisu returned her body to Orukisu, and her soul was transferred to a golem (doll) vessel with the same appearance. Having two Orukisu would be inconvenient in many ways, so she started calling herself "Oukisu". She has the Primal Beast Akasha sealed inside her body, and a giant golem named Lloyd behind her to attack and defend. When the group was caught in an avalanche, she used Lloyd as a shield to protect Gran and the others.
Leisha is finally reunited with her father!

Risya is the rookie captain of the Fourth Airborne Brigade of the Order of the Sky Knights, who was with Gran and the others in the Blue Girl Arc. She was taught by the previous Monica, but in the Dawn of the Sky Arc, she finally reunites with her father, the "Blue Knight" Valfried, one of the Knights of the Seven Stars. During this time, he acts separately from Gran and the others, but fans can rest assured that he will join up with them as the story progresses! His fighting style often involves encouraging his allies with "commands," so it will be exciting to see his battle scenes in the anime.

Gran and his friends leave the Fata Grande airspace and begin a new adventure. At first, they are all separated, but gradually they gather together. The story of the Nar Grande airspace is also interesting, but the highlight is Sturm's tsundere! In the Blue Girl arc, they were often enemies, but in the Akatsuki no Sora arc, they act as allies and show their tsundere side to Drunk. Be sure to check that out in the Akatsuki no Sora arc!
