MaxMarco and I do not own Youjo Senki, please go support the official release

Little by little I woke up while everything around me was roaring, people shouting, Rommel shouting and many vehicles moving, I got up from my chair feeling a pain in my back and neck because of the poor sleeping position and I started to clean my eyes when I heard something that frightened me.

"KIEW IS UNDER SIEGE, ORDERS FROM THE FUHRER ALL AVAILABLE TROOPS TO KIEW. IF KIEW FALLS THE REICHSKOMMISSARIAT MOSKOWIEN AND KAUKASIEN WILL FALL, WE CAN NOT ALLOW IT. "

I looked at Rommel but he didn't realize I was there and kept shouting over the radio while the poor radio operator was bent over to give Rommel comfort, I turned to the left to see where we were and caught a train station, where they were loading dozens and dozens of IFVs, leopards, self-propelled artillery, on the other hand on the highway all the soldiers were getting into APCs.

Rommel stopped shouting and turned to me, "I'm sorry, but you will have to come with me, technically you are under my arrest and I will not hand you over to other authorities in my absence, I promise to give you all the comfort possible but I don't know how much there will be."

After that little summary, Rommel took the radio from the soldier and put it on the chair in front of him.

"Soldier, go back to your APC, I'll keep the radio, we can't stop the convoy every time there is a communiqué from Germania or any HQ."

The soldier gave a salute and ran off. Rommel, for his part, fiddled with the radio and spoke again, "We leave in 10 minutes, on the way we will be joined by 3 more divisions, forced march until we reach Kiew. Germanian HQ has confirmed that they are taking all the fuel we will need to points along the way so we can refuel along with other supplies".

Rommel fiddled with the radio again, left it on the chair, then laid back in the armchair and relaxed.

I know I shouldn't talk to an officer who has just received urgent orders and had to organize a mobilization out of nothing. Still, I had such a lack of information that I couldn't just shut up.

"What's going on?"

"Nothing you can understand little girl" he pulled out a book from somewhere in the back and handed it to me, "Keep that book, just don't break anything, I need to sleep, I've been awake for 3 days, I can't cope with my life anymore, and it's 3 days of travel, with any luck by the time I get there Kiew will still be standing and Koch will be dead."

Who is Koch? However, I lost the intention to investigate when I saw what he gave me.

(look up map of TNO or something, this is easier on Ao3 where you can upload pictures)

YES, YES, YES, YES, FINALLY I GOT LUCKY

I opened the world map and started to investigate the world quickly, and I realized something, and that is that this was not a world of Nazi domination, this was a world of balance between Japan and Germany against the USA.

Germany controlled practically all of Europe, the countries that were not colonies, or so it seemed were the Iberian Union. A union of Spain and Portugal, Italy which controlled the former Yugoslavia and Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary which controlled Transylvania, Sweden, Finland which controlled all the former Russian territory in the north, Wales? Scotland? Were they independent? There was also reunified Ireland. So I looked to see other places when I saw the map of Asia.

Japan controlled almost all of Asia, nearly all of China, the Philippines, Siam, Pacific islands including Hawaii, a quarter of what would be the British Raj, Indonesia, and Indochina. Apparently, they had 2 cities on the Pacific coast of America. Australia and New Zealand were independent. Afghanistan was a rare union between Afghanistan and Pakistan, there was an independent India and an independent Ceylon. The Arab countries continued as usual while the area of Syria, Jordan, and Palestine was divided between Turkey and Italy, and the latter controlled Qatar and Abu Dhabi.

However, there was something strange on the map, the area that would be the former USSR was empty, it simply had Russia written on it in large letters along with the geography of the area, there were no cities, no names.

I stretched to relax and put the book aside, the map was strange, but not crazy, in the end, the world changed practically in the same way in 50 years, if you showed someone from 1920 a map from 1970 they would think it was crazy.

I looked to the left as the trees passed by while we traveled at the maximum speed possible, it had been such hard days, I missed my life in the lab, it was simple and I had a bed to sleep in, everyone treated me well... Even if I didn't control my destiny, I preferred not to handle it this way, if at least my fate was manipulated by others, that they treated me well was the least, not like the damned X Being.

I wonder what has become of him, I hope he is dead.

The noise of the APCs moving as fast as possible over time created a steady but not too loud sound that made me doze off, however, a transmission came from the radio that woke me up and Rommel as well.

"Attention, this is a warning to all units of the glorious German army, we can no longer ensure the safety of the convoys in the Reichskommissariat Ukraine, all trains must stop at the Generalgouvernement of Poland and from there advance in combat position, I repeat."

Rommel changed the frequency and put on a different one, "Stop the convoy at the Polish Generalgouvernement, when we arrive deploy all troops and advance to Kiew in a forced march."

Rommel switched to the previous frequency and lowered the volume, "Karl, keep an eye on the radio. If anything important comes on wake me up."

Rommel went to sleep again, a few hours passed and it was getting dark when I noticed something, the panzerschokolade was in the door pocket.

In the end, my power depended on the drugs; drugs were bad, but maybe I needed them.

Time to vote!

Steal the panzerschokolade, my life depends on it. Imagine if the convoy is assaulted by partisans, I can't trust Rommel to protect me.

Rommel is a wise man and drugs are bad, he seems to hate panzerschokolade, probably best not to steal it, I don't want to lose his trust and he did promise to protect me.

Ahh little Tanya, after two lives you are finally discovering the wonders of drugs! what a glorious day. And before you say anything yes I know in the LNs she and all the other mages were doping themselves with magic drugs, which was never mentioned in the anime. Not sure if it was in the manga or not. Here is where this crossposting gets a bit harder than I wanted it to be, because going forward MaxMarco starts including more and more pictures into his fic to show images of what he is trying to portray. Go check this story out on Ao3 or SB if you want it authentically. Or if you just want to google what he is talking about go do it
