Preparations for the war is already in place and armies of 13 nations are marching towards Azuria, they're on a road Azuria cleared through the unexplored regions. The soldiers march for a few days before reaching a huge rocky empty land before them, they see the flags of Azuria on the other side of the land.
Over in the castle of Mirthendom, the king is in a chamber with a huge artifact mirror before him and over 30 other artifact mirrors. Besides the huge mirror showing the army, the 30 other mirrors are showing kings, queens, dukes and duches. Amongst the 30 people, 13 chose to go to war against Azuria to steal the technology they had. The 13 are led by a nation known as Falshurx and the 13 consists of 3 kings, 4 dukes and nobles.
The continent being big had a lot of nations, from empires to large nations, moderate nations and small countries. Some of them had these mirrors watching and those that could not afford had to send spies or hear from others.
The invading army started getting into formation to start the war with Azuria's forces, the gods of those nations decided to give them their blessings. Bad move, Azurians tracked the gods back to wherever they are and politely restrained them though some had bruises. The Azurians could easily dispel the blessings but they didn't, they're knowledge on warfare was far brutal than what the nations knew.
On Azuria's side, Paxius originally gathered 1,000s of Purebred Azurians but changed his mind to 50 purebreds Azurians against the 700,000 enemy troops. Mixed Azurians (Azurites) weren't present for this war since they'd just sit around doing nothing. Azuria had 500 constructs on their side, 100 tanks, 50 helicopters, 30 mechs, 1 fortress construct with miniature drones and the rest being raw constructs.
The fortress construct was modelled after a spider so it had 8 blade legs with turrets along the legs, 8 eyes capable of shooting beams, Repulsion Forcefield, autonomous scorpion tanks, ladybug repairers, beetle hammer heads and bee forces. All the autonomous constructs are in the abdomen of the spider fortress which holds almost 30,000 constructs in total. This spider fortress construct is an attack class construct built purposely to face monsters in the realm of Monsters and actually conquer them, and this is just one of the many many constructs built by Azuria.

In the chamber where the king is, other 15 nations are present all because of the war. To watch the war between Azurian and Falshurx Alliance, they communicate between themselves.
King Alserr V is enraged watching the armies line up on the mirror, "Just look the holy kingdom of Falshurx has declared war just to force Azuria to serve them. Tch"
King Valan sighed, "What you say is indeed true, my son was present when the incident at the Golden Emporium happened, he told me the shop had rules for disposing troublemakers yet an emissary of Falshurx caused trouble and wanted to use his position to own the place. I am proud of them for standing their grounds but at what cost?"
Queen Veronica claps her hand to get their attention, "Do not worry my friends, I believe that if Azuria is willing to fight then they must have a trump card or two. I have even sent eighty thousands of my soldiers to assist Azuria if things turn for the worst. They should be in the unexplored regions behind Azuria's forces, they will defend Azuria if Falshurx breaks through."
King Alserr V turns to Veronica's mirror, "Why would you go so far as to help them?"
"Think about it," Queen Veronica speaks, "Azuria is a kingdom that has prospered in secret all these years. I believe it to even be the descendants of an ancient civilization, they also possess magic artefacts that has proven to be quite useful for my people. I won't stand for such a kingdom to be enslaved, we can gain more if we're at peace."
Duke Roland nods rubbing his bushy beard, "What Queen Veronica said is true, Azuria must be the descendants of an ancient civilization. I think it is possible that Falshurx and Allies are using this war to gain their magic artefacts for themselves, I have even bought a potion that can increase your strength and my chief warrior's strength has increased by leads and bounds. If Falshurx acquires their artefacts they will monopolize them and worst of all, they might increase their military strength and conquer us. Queen Veronica's initiative to send help to Azuria is the right thing, although I may not have much, I intend to send troops to aid Azuria."
King Alserr V laughs loudly, "Hahahaha excellent idea. I can't stand the injustice, I have also sent troops to aid Azuria. I have even packed my favorite weapon to join in on the fight, hahahahaha."
Queen Veronice looks at King Alserr V and notices his surroundings is different, "Are you in the unexplored regions? Hmph, you aren't called the warrior king for nothing king Alserr."
A timid queen Sophia speaks, "I am only the ruler of a small kingdom. Since Azuria set up another shop here, they have protected us from bandit attacks and done many more. I spoke with the shop owner that I wanted to help but he told me it's not necessary. I had even prepared an army of 4,000, but he still said Azuria is stronger than it seems. I chose to believe him but seeing them with only a few tens of soldiers and thousands of golems I can't help but be worried."
King Valan asks curiously, "Are you saying Azuria intends to fight with that few soldiers? Are they mad? They don't stand a chance against the mages of Falshurx" Then king valan look at his attendant and spoke, "Tell general Marholm to prepare our troops, we ride to Azuria this instant!" The attendant left and he look back at the mirror and spoke to the group, "Am leaving to Azuria this instant, they don't stand a chance." And king Valan disconnected. He has experience fighting those nations.
Other 4 kings who only listened also decided to help Azuria stand. King Alserr led his troops straight to Azuria along with the rest either sending troops or going themselves to help. They took along their mirror and put them in carriages as they left hoping to reach before Falshurx broke through Azuria's soldiers.
But on the way they came across Azurians on every road and all had the message, "Azuria will stand, we appreciate your aid and Azuria has decided to recognize you all as allies and will reward you but there is no need to interfere." The kings and queens were stumped that they couldn't help, then the Azurians said, "This is just a game for those on the battlefield you should go back to your kingdoms and watch Azuria will personally broadcast the war to you."
With that every shop belonging to Azuria in those kingdoms displayed large screens in the air above the city for the people to watch. The people were distressed that they couldn't help but they watched it praying Azuria finds a way to survive. Azuria provided items that made their lives better and at very affordable prices, but unique to not cause friction with other shops.
[AU: INFO
- Fortress Constructs: 2 classes, offense and defense. Though extremely powerful, can only stand up to level 500 monsters at most but increasing the numbers can even take down a level 700 monster.
- Fortress Constructs: Modelled after monsters in the Monster realm with camouflage features to blend in and personality to even act as such.
- Azuria golem troops: Despite Azuria's army looking unimpressive, one is capable of taking on a champion in a 1vs1 fight. The enemy do not realize this because the golems do not look intimidating or that big. With Azuria's knowledge, they created 2 energy cores for normal constructs, ordinary constructs have 1 core which is inefficient at all.
- Azuria constructs also have compartments, this means they can attach parts and take them off and the second core which acts as their brain has an inventory space. So the constructs go around looking harmless until ready to fight.
- Azurians blocking the road to Azuria are Azurites, Azuria already has the Clockwork Assassin Automata mixed with the nations as spies. Some Azurians proficient with dark summoning summoned beings to use as spies.
- Unexplored regions: Blank sides of the continent that hasn't been touched by any nation, there are rumors of monsters residing there and monsters do reside there. Monster tides normally starts from there and it happens when powerful monsters fight and the weak run or something else.
- Humans have been able to interact with other continents but majority of the continents are unexplored. Some continents even have rare and precious artifacts with various magical capabilities.
- The nations are generally on the lower sides of the unexplored region and Azuria is in the middle of the lower side so it's closer to the nations. Azuria also created roads to exit the un explored regions and that is what the nations are taking. The nations going to assist are coming from the other sides of the road to Azuria or trying to intercept Falshurx.
- The neutral nations and Azuria supporters believe Azuria will be willing to share more if there's no enmity. They believe if Azuria is conquered, their knowledge and culture might be lost with the death of Azurians.
