Probably missed some important points

Highlighted notes

 * A new country name is mentioned. Iflika, located 10 days sailing south of Asvarre's continent side. It only has relationship with Asvarre and Muozinel. Comfortable relationship, but might take advantage to attack Asvarre if given chance.
 * A new faction is revealed. The spy from volume 1's Brune-Zhcted's campaign to Muozinel is revealed to be from faction of anti-monarch faction. The faction from Brune and Zhcted cooperate to leak information to Muozinel in order to weaken the king of their respective countries. It is expected Asvarre's also involved.
 * Tigre received arrowhead said to be given by King of Magic Bullet to his friend Galahad before he leave to Sachstein. Following that lead, Tigre is heading to Sachstein for the next story.

Chapter 1

 * Tigre and Mila flirting time #1: When in town, Mila told Tigre she hopes for his growth to be able to make strategy and lead Olmutz soldiers in her place, as someone who will be her husband, and this is her own personal wish. Then when children asks if they're lovers, Tigre answered Yes, confidently. Also when they ask both to kiss, Mila kissed Tigre without warning.
 * Guinevere's party
 * Roland answered Tigre's question about his choice to become a knight. It starts when Prince Faron told him about a knight named Roland in King Charles' court.
 * Roland told Tigre, Durandal has a power, and he hope Tigre won't ask anything about it when Roland have to use it one day. Roland will also not ask about the mysterious power of Black Bow, Viralt, and Caliburn.
 * Guinevere declared the Shining Army of Conquest, after Zephiria the Conqueror. Only Tigre and Roland agreed on that name while everyone else don't care.
 * Guinevere's statement about not differentiating about Island and Continent cost her support from ex-Elliot factions.
 * Tigre and Mila flirting time #2: Tigre who are drunk of beer out of jealousy seeing nobles trying to approach Mila, got a time alone with her in the balcony. She knew Tigre is jealous, and in his drunk state, she let him touch her all over, but stop before kiss because it would ruin her lipstick and make other guests notice.
 * Guinevere has a talk with Roland, also about why he became a knight. Out of his experience, Roland guessed Guinevere is having a doubt about her choice to be queen.
 * Guinevere told Roland about her meeting with Caliburn when escaping assassins during her pilgrimage to shrine of Sir Bedivere. The fateful meeting made up her mind.
 * She also invites Roland to become a knight for her, which he turns down politely (not explicit, but seems very clear Guinevere had a crush on Roland since their first meeting)
 * Tigre's after party with Hamish. Tigre wants to ask for Hamish's support for Guinevere, but is also feeling very guilty because he had lied to Hamish about the death of his close friend Elliot.
 * Germaine is disappointed her sister is challenging him. He is also angered by Baron Bernard who has betrayed him and switch to Guinevere. This held him in Valvedere under worries of more traitors still hiding in his ranks.
 * Germaine also found out, the death of his most beloved sister Dursilla, the second princess, is actually done by his own supporter, rather than Elliot as he thought. Finding this out, Germaine is depressed to hear news about Elliot's death in the hand of the assassins he sent.
 * According to Tallard, when asked by Radwidge, Germaine's most trusted man, it also made Germain became even more strict than before, to make sure he will no longer make any mistake.

Chapter 2

 * Naval battle near the port town of Mariayo
 * Caldart, the leader of Germaine's fleet is having personal feud with Will whom he think has taken the credit out of his father and caused him to lost not just his father but also his left eye and arm.
 * Each fleets split in three groups. Will asks the Brune and Zhcted fleets to hang on until noon.
 * Brune's fleet receive harrasment from Germaine's, but no real casualty. The battle is mostly just Asvarre and Brune troops throwing insult on one another, until Roland had enough and tell his fleet to pull back, to bait Germaine's ships to them.
 * Zhcted's fleet faced Tallard's triple row arrow shooter formation raining them with constant barrage of arrows. After two ships, Tigre managed to kill the signal troop before they start shooting, so Zhcted soldiers can shoot back. Then Mila used Lavias to create ice ramming pole on their ship, then jumps to enemy ship.
 * Guinevere's fleet managed to change the tide by predicting the coming of a squall during the battle.
 * Caldart, seeing his fleet is losing, decide to bring the assassins entrusted by Germaine and
 * Will told the truth about his achievement. It's a dilemma about the achievement of a soldier or commander. Caldart's father Arlingham died fighting a Vanadis coming to Will's ship. They managed to hold her long enough until she decide to retreat. King Zacharias granted all the honour to Will because he'd rather have a living neutral hero rather than granting the Continental nobles a dead hero, and risk endangering the balance of power he had carefully maintained.

Chapter 3

 * Tigre and Mila flirting time #3: provoked by Sofy who claimed she had seen Tigre sleeping, Mila came to wake Tigre up. Because he only return in the morning after drinking party, Tigre doesn't wake up even after Mila playfully kisses his forehead, eyelids, lips, and even lick clean the lipstick on his neck and leave her mark instead (she really got overboard)
 * In town, they meet with Guinevere and Roland who is in disguise. Tigre and Mila who are used to disguising when they are going out together in Olmutz points out Guinevere did a bad job at disguise, only wearing coat over her usual white dress.
 * Guinevere asks their opinion about suggestion to burn Mariayo because although they have captured the town, it's hard to defend.
 * Tigre refuse, saying his father taught him to care for the people.
 * Roland says Brune's official stance is to back Guinevere, but he personally refuse, quoting Guinevere's own words about bringing back peace and ending bloodshed.
 * Mila berates Guinevere for her way trying to ask support, but too afraid of making debts.
 * Militsa shows up naked under Tigre's bed to surprise him, which Tigre quickly found out. Mila forgives Tigre, knowing it's just one of Militsa's pranks. But if it's another woman, she is thinking about freezing his nose until it falls off.
 * Militsa brings report about the spy hunt. Unexpectedly, the spies are from anti-monarch factions of Brune and Zhcted, planning to weaken the kingdom. There's also hint of Asvarre involved. But the chance of Sachstein involved is low because they still have deep grudge after the humiliating defeat against Kureys in naval battle 10 years ago.
 * Afterward, Militsa also told Tigre his real task is to serve as a bait from Brune.
 * Damad is in Valverde, although he's late and the gates are closed. He met a mysterious commander of Sachstein troops.
 * Guinevere send her troops to two directions. One to capture Fort Lux, and another to capture town of Burgas, known for its hot spring.
 * They expect both to be easy, because Germaine has been concentrating his troops in Valverde.
 * The move is to provoke Germaine to move his troops, because Guinevere knows her much smaller army can't win in a battle in Valverde.
 * The dragon in Burgas is real. Tobias, the commander of Asvarre troops to Brugas is overconfident and ends up killed.
 * The black flying dragon proofs to be a problem because it keep flying high and then dive with high speed to attack with shockwaves, then fly high again. They're helped by the arrival of Zion, who doesn't expect to get attacked by other dragon. Although with constant complaining, Zion brought Tigre up on his dragon so Tigre can shoot the Storm Dragon (a mutated variation of flying dragon)

Chapter 4

 * The victory against dragon brings even more support to Guinevere from the population, seeing her saving them while Germaine only sits in his castle.
 * This also brings her headache as she got so many volunteers who are inexperienced.
 * Achievement of killing the dragon is given to Zion, because people would more easily believe dragon being defeated by another dragon. The addition of a dragon rider to her force further increase Guinevere's popularity.
 * Zion asks Roland and Tigre's suggestion for weapon to be used by a dragon rider. Sword (too short), Spear (difficult and risk getting pulled down), Arrow (even Tigre said it would be difficult with wyvern's speed), Whip (Zion doesn't like), Morning star (too barbaric).
 * Although he still acts arrogant, Tigre and Roland can see Zion has changed from the person they meet during the Muozinel campaign. Although he tries to deny it, they can see he had spent a lot of effort to ride the dragon.
 * Hot spring. Sofy > Mila & Guinevere > Militsa
 * Militsa nonchalantly drops a bomb asking if Mila has let a man touched her breasts (which she knows well the answer, because Militsa's first meeting with Tigre is when he's groping Mila in the forest)
 * Tigre and Mila flirting time #4: Militsa informed Tigre about Mila still in the bath alone, out of good will to see their relationship progress.
 * Tigre apologize for making Mila waits long for him to gather achievements. Mila suggested using this campaign as his achievement, and even ask Roland's recommendation. Tigre turned down the offer because he wants an achievement he can proudly say is by his own merit, and especially not from taking advantage of Roland's kindness.
 * After that, they have naked time together, if not because both sensed Militsa voyeuring on them.
 * Guinevere took Tigre to the shrine of Galahad. She gave him an arrowtip, said to be gift from the King of Magic Bullet, who continue to Sachstein.
 * On return, Tigre had a guest, Damad, who offered cooperation. He will open the gate of Valverde for Guinevere's troops to come in. The reason is because Germaine works with Kurey's political rival, and many innocent Muozinel merchants has been arrested by false accusation.
 * Mila doubt the offer, because that still means they have to fight Germaine's 45 thousands strong army. But she found another idea to make use of Damad's offer.

Chapter 5

 * Battle of Astorga plains.
 * Guinevere and Mila fight in the opening to reduce the enemy's morale.
 * During fight with Weiss, the fully armoured commander of Sachstein troops, Mila sensed the sword of her opponent have similar property to the Viralt.
 * Zion, who is in group of his own, had a trouble. The dragon seems to not like the choice of weapon he made (a mace). The dragon choose to do diving attack against troops of allies and enemy, ruining formation of both side. In a coincidence, the mace got loose from Zion's grip during a dive and strike an enemy captain right in the head.
 * Meanwhile, Roland and Tigre are leading a smaller group of troops to attack Valverde. Roland cuts through everything in front of him, including thick gate and even falling steel bars.
 * When Tigre and Roland arrive the next day, bringing proof of their victory, the morale of Germaine's troops are all gone.
 * Guinevere won the battle and Germaine is captured, but at that time, messengers from Colchester arrived to inform both their father has awakened.
