As soon as the mighty roar was heard a wave of unimaginable power washed over everyone fighting and to say it was terrifying would be lying. Issei's girls felt it and had wide eyes. They never thought that Issei would have this much power at his disposal, though only Elsha knew what this was, and she was turning white quickly. After all, this was a forbidden power that was unlocked.
"Why Issei, why?" Elsha questioned in a whisper as she felt him coming towards them at an alarming speed.
The speed at which Issei hit Kolekh would be like a hyper missile on steroids. The power behind the hit was so great that it sent shockwaves throughout an area the size of Greater London, and everything in that area was blown away, even the soldiers fighting, and other beings were flown away like they were made of paper.
While Kolekh was sent flying kilometers away. Issei roared again before pursuing the monster to continue the punishment. It was like Hell was unleashed and the demons were about to feel real dread and chaos. After all, now was a time of apex predator and Kolekh will soon learn, he wasn't on top of the food chain.
As Issei was destroying the ugly cunt, on the right flank hidden by a thick forest, a force of 4 divisions of infantry and 1 cavalry was about ready to start the onslaught. Leading the new force was noneother then than the Iron Regiment which was the most elite unit second only to Dragon Born. And with commander Brka at the helm, it was no question about the result of the insuring attack. The only question was how long it would take for Iron Regiment and its Slavic allies to break and destroy the enemy.
"Children of Slavic nations! Now is the time to finally put a nail in this coffin. Our brothers and sister fought for too long against this enemy today, and it is our duty to bring this clash to an end! Lord Vido personally summoned us to do what we must. And there is no greater honor for the soldier when your Lord needs your expertise to finish the job. I do not doubt my sons that you are all very tired of fighting. But this isn't an enemy that will just lay down its arms and pull back when beaten. They will not stop until the 1st or 2nd thing happens! 1st we are all dead or 2nd, they are all dead! And I for one wish for the 2nd option to happen so we can have peace! Soldiers of Marshal Chuikov! Brave victors of Stalingrad! Your general has given me the honor of leading you into this battle, but do not think for a second that I will just let you die in vain. I will be in the thick of it with my Iron sons Leading this charge! Sons of mine that went through the hell of Cer, Kolubara, and way more! Soldiers of the Eastern Front of Mighty Red Army! Galant riders and saviors of Viena! The victors of our wars through history! It is time to answer the call of battle once again. This time though it would be on a way grander scale. This time it is about everything that you cherish and everyone's future, past, life and even those who died are in peril! Do you know your duty, my sons? The bastards of Bregalnica, the destroyers of the Axis, the vanguards of freedom and ruin of oppressors?! " Brka said in a tone that thundered making everyone stay at attention as they look him straight in the eyes that were like a fiery inferno.
"Yes, sir commandant!" His troops respond in unison as the Russian troops also answered as if their soul was answering his unquestioned question.
"Good, now follow me! Forward march! Time to show the Chaos forces the true meaning of chaos and destruction. Do not hold back my sons and do not let up, because the enemy sure won't, aim straight and let your bayonet reap the souls of those that thought it was a good idea to test our resolve and our might! The ones that thought going to war against Slavic People was a good idea! Long live the Fatherland!" The Iron Commander roared as if it was Lion's roar.
"Long live the Fatherland / Motherland! Long live Lord Triglav! Ura!" The troops roared as they, with Commander at the helm charged forward with Artillery starting to send its deadly payload at the Chaos flank that was in confusion about what was happening. Though that confusion would lead to their doom. As the battle was already over with this charge. It was a charge so mighty that pushed all the way to center and effectively ended the Battle. As the central front line and the right flank were destroyed, all the might of the left-wing and central forces with assault units turned inwards and descendants of the remaining forces of Chaos. It was like the gates of hell opened as the unimaginable force of steal and flesh collided and sent its foe to where they came.

It took Issei less than a moment to catch up with Kolekh and even less to again let loose his rage on the Chaos being that had committed the worst crime imaginable. Not helping Kolekh was that he was exhausted after battling Slavic forces, Elsha and Lucy who the latter really did a number on, since his reserves were on a low end. And with a raged Dragon here for his head, only a miracle would help him. Since he could tell that his allies were scattered around battling the leaders of the enemy forces and he was alone to fend for himself.
With a mighty swing of his Warhammer, Kolekh managed to get a direct hit on Issei though to his surprise and horror it had as much effect on Issei as if a fly hit him full speed. Issei just roared even more as he sent a blast of his Dragon shots at the Bahamut point blank range that sent him flying again.
"You ugly mut think you can beat me in a fair fight? Don't make me laugh. I fought countless enemies and slaughtered them all!" Kolekh roared as he stood up on his 4 legs, his power starting to rise as he also entered into a rage.
Though Kolekh roared to Issei, Issei just plowed through what remained in the back line not even slightly slowed down until he again slammed into the best with the power of nuclear bomb! It was so much that Kolekh was using all his power just to mitigate the damage he received but that didn't help as Issei started to claw him, ripping bits of flesh out Kolekh who couldn't do anything but roar in pain as he was ripped apart literally.
"You know I was worried for a bit, but it looks like it was for naught. You are all bark and no bite." Issei said as he blasted Kolekh again.
"Uhhh...you bastard!" Kolekh roared again as he launched his lightning at the mighty Dragon who just tanked it without even flinching.
"HAHAHAHAHA, that is the best you can do...That didn't even tickle me. Let me show you how it was really done." Issei said his tone flat and sending chills through Kolekh's massive body as he felt huge magic power gathering in front of Issei as his armor split away a bit to show a massive cannon that was pointed at him and was about to fire.
"I will not go down without a fight, you filth!" Kolekh in his last defiant moment started to gather energy as much as he could. But before he was ready to unleash it, he heard dreaded words coming from the Red Dragon Emperor.
"Longinus Smasher!" And with those words roared towards heaven, Issei let loose an attack so powerful and strong that it obliterated everything and anything in its path. The attack was so large that it left a ditch 5km deep and 100km long.
After that attack, nothing was left out of Kolekh not even dust. He was vaporized from all of that potent magic attack that even a small warp was created that lasted only for a few moments, and in does few moments Issei managed to see a glimpse of a huge ass Dragon floating in space not bothered at all and not giving a fuck about it.

With that, the first battle of the new Chaos war was over. Slavic forces had managed to defeat the enemy at a huge cost to both sides. Though sadly they didn't manage to capture any of the generals but knowing that the Monster of the Mountains was dead was a huge reason for celebration.
After the battle, Issei's girls rushed to where they felt Issei and were shocked to see the massive amount of damage that Issei managed to create. Even the battlefield itself was less damaged than Issei's final battle with Kolekh. But they were all glad that Issei was alright and that was the most important thing that they wished for. Though that didn't stop Elsha from whoop Issei's ass for entering that Forbidden power, and even threatening both Ddraig and Belzard, cutting off their pride and showing them in their asses for letting this happen.
Though, almost all girls except Murayama and Katase were injured, along with Issei, were forced to stay at the hospital to recover and to heal injuries that they received in this battle. They didn't know what was about to happen to them, and boy where they surprised when after a few days returned to Moscow.

The day of the return of the army that fought and won the battle of Irkutsk was a day of celebrations as the units marched through the Red Square, they were showered with flowers prayers and standing ovations. War songs were songs, there was a lot of dancing and a general feeling of happiness and victory of course there we untold tons of alcohol from all across the Slavic world drunk. Though as the army arrived at the gates of the Kremlin they were instructed to come. They were met with All 3 Gods of the Slavic realm along with generals and Old Father Triglav. And as Solders tired, injured and some disabled stood at attention, everyone was shocked at what the Gods did next. They all bowed their head down towards the Solders and generals that lead the fight it was something that wasn't seen at all.
After a few moments with their heads bowed down they lifted them up to see the shocked expressions on their armies' faces and they couldn't help but chuckle a bit at their expressions.
"My Children. We bowed our heads to the Victors of Irkutsk. the brave Heroes standing in front of us and to the Heroes that feel defending our realms. To us, this is the least we could do for you mighty ones that managed to stop this horror that was so close to plunging us into Total War. For that, we the Gods of Slavic land are thankful for your dedication, courage and resolve." Old Father Triglav said as he bowed his head again towards the brave heroes that fought and died in the name of Slavic Lands. Some far from their homeland came to help and die for their brothers and sisters in peril.
"Soldiers, Heroes of the combined Slavic Army today is your day, drink, celebrate, enjoy yourself to the fullest as this was not an easy enemy to defeat. You earned yourself fame and valor of the highest grade. Tomorrow when your hearts and bodies rest well, we will present to every one of you a prize and gratitude you earned by your merit on the field of battle. But that is tomorrow, as I always say to my warriors in the South, tomorrow is a new battle a few battlefields but today's one was won so relax and unwind." Vido said making the army cheered as they were given freedom to mingle with the eager crowd and hear of the tales of battle and everything that went down.
As for Issei and his girls, they were put in one of the most prestigious Hotels in Moscow and later were given the clothes to wear for tomorrow's ceremony that would be held at noon. And someone with a perverted mind would think that they made love in that hotel, but they didn't Issei was beyond tired that he fell asleep in the bath tub and was carried away by Lucy and Arnett who was beat red from the sight but still did what was told by the heiress.

"Like I told you yesterday, to the heroes of Irkutsk goes the spoil of war. Every soldier here would receive a prize worthy of their accomplishment on the battlefield. Your request would be heard and according to prize would be given to you mighty soldiers. Now since we have in our army some foreign soldiers, I would like to address them and give them the prize they deserve for a valiant show of arms in the face of a deadly enemy. 1st to step forward. Valkyries of Odin along with their commander Arnett McMillan." Vido spoke as the unit of Valkyries stepped towards the mighty good. Their well-trained discipline shows even now as they like one presented themself in front of God of War.
"The ladies of Odin, I, Vido along with my brothers and Old Father are proud to give you all this banner of unity between our two nations along with new weapons and suits of armor freshly made by our smiths and mages who with the help of your Lord Odin and his blessing were the top of the line. Along with the promotion to the Odin's finest and being among the 1st to become guardians' units of Nordic-Slavic Lands. Along with Arnett McMillan becoming the first commander of this Unit permanently and receiving the Hero of Nordic and Slavic War medals. Congratulations." Vido spoke making the crowd and army cheer for Valkyries who showed great efforts to hold off against overwhelming odds.
"Next to receiving the prizes are Murayama and Katase of Red Dragon's escorts," Vido said as the mentioned girls step forwards intimidated by large cheers from people around them.
"Even though you didn't participate in the fighting directly under General Elsha's orders, you contributed to getting supplies, helping the wounded, and overall doing what was necessary so that our medical staff and those that were in need of treatment could be still alive and fight another day you have my highest gratitude. Not all battles are won by the power of a sword and a charge. What you two did is worthy of as much praise as those that slain the enemy. For that, I am glad to give you the medals of honor and salvation. Along with those you two earned citizenships of Slavic Lands as of today, you are free to come on and go and feel at home in any place that is Slavic realm. For your deeds are worth at least this much." Vido said making the Army cheer as they all saw with what fever and dedication those two girls went to help in any way that they could.
"Now I would like to call forth Cassie, Chelsea, and Lucy." Vido said as the trio of girls made their way towards the God of War who smiled seeing the hardened look in their eyes.
"Now I honestly don't know how to express my gratitude towards you three. All of what you did was worthy of the noble rank if you were a Slavic citizen though I will give you that as a way of thanking you for the war effort you three made. As of today, like with your companions you are fully-fledged members of Slavic realm. You would also receive medals of Valor and Honor along with a plot of Land in the South Slavic land. I would say that near the sea would suit you best. Along a battle attire made by our mages and smiths with weapons of your choosing and design." Vido said as the crowd exploded in cheers the tales of the girl's exploits were already well-known thanks to the soldiers that were under their command. There was no need for Vido to tell what the girls did to justify his decision.
"And finally, I would love to call forth our Red Dragon Duo, The current Emperor, and our own Empress. Issei Hyoudou and Elsha Markovich." Vido spoke and as soon as the words left his mouth. The whole Red Square exploded with cheers. The cheer was so strong that even people in the nearby towns heard them. Helping this was that this ceremony for the army was transmitted throughout the Slavic and Norse lands. So, the populous can see and hear what was happening.
Looking at each other Issei and Elsha marched towards Vido who grinned seeing them in their Red Dragon Armor and with Dragon wings out as he told them to do it prior to making a huge show of power and impressing the crowds.
"The two of you. I can praise you to Prag and to Heaven and it still won't do justice to what you did for us. But let's start with our very own Elsha. Your show of military tactics and use of resources was pristine and impressive. I, Vido, give you the medal of Survov, Katuzov, Zukov, and the banner of Triglav. Along with a promotion to the Grand Marshal of the Slavic Forces. For your merits and hard-fought battle, you will receive a new set of armor out of Red Dragon's scales and your sword of Devastation will be receiving a few more upgrades along with a few more things. Congratulations, I hope you will serve our realm far more and more successfully." Vido said as he bowed his head towards the new Grand Marshal of the Slavic realm who was left speechless.
"Now, Issei Hyoudou, you would receive also Slavic citizenship along with a plot of land, and as decided you would receive in all three realms. Though seeing your contribution was worth a lot more praise. You are to receive full membership into our Royal Blood Dragon unit as a co-commander along with a right to command and lead a unit should the need arise. You also would receive a weapon of your choosing and whatever else you want. For the killing of an enemy General, you are hereby accepted into the prestigious Knights of Order of the Red Dragon highest and most elite unit of the South Slavic Land. Also, you passed your test for that right and we the warriors of this Grand realm see you as one of us now." Vido concluded and bowed his head towards Issei who was beyond shock.
"Now that those things are over. I have two words for our guests, soldiers, and crowd. LET'S PARTY!" Vido roared and all hell broke loose as it was the biggest party after WW2.
