Wyvern Overlords are the strongest version of Wyverns that created by the Parpaldia Empire to counter Mu's aircraft. They are far larger and stronger than Wyvern Lords. However, as a sacrifice to increase their strength, Wyvern Overlords have limited productive capacity. They are said to have greater speed and maneuverability than the Marin.
Description[]
Wyvern Overlord is the strongest version of Wyvern where Wyvern Lords are subjected to further breeding that in order to succeed in development, Parpaldia sacrificed its budget. It's maximum speed is 430 km/h. The appearance looks like the conventional Wyvern species has become one size larger.
Wyvern Lords has long been a part of the air force, but starts losing its advantage due to the creation of the aircraft by the Holy Mirishial Empire and Mu. In recent years, Mu's development of Marin has become a decisive factor, and Parpaldia, which felt that it is a crisis, developed the most advanced dragon to surpass Marin.
It takes a lot of time to manufacture, and the parent dragon that breeds the Wyvern Lord species must be carefully selected and its eggs cultivated until hatched on a newly developed enhanced magic circle. The necessity of using abundant gemstones requires three times the manufacturing cost of a Wyvern Lord. Since the reproductive organs have been completely deleted from the Overlord species, they cannot be produced except by this method, and it production greatly influenced the internal affair of the Parpaldia Empire to some extent. Moreover, their lifespan is shorter than that of normal species.
However, the fighting power has increased steadily, and the speed, turning ability, and combat radius have been improved over the Wyvern Lord. It was so fast that a special saddle had to be developed. Also, the take-off run distance became longer due to its size. Therefore, existing Dragon Carriers cannot accommodate these behemoths and a new type of dragon mothers are built to accommodate them, the Veronia and Palkimaera. Even with increased size, a purpose built carrier only carries 12, compared to a normal carrier holding 20 regular wyverns.
Years after the war with Japan, Parpaldia managed to rebuild its Wyvern Overlord fleet. Their first international sortie is during the Conflict at Silkark Kingdom wherein they will face the magic airships of the Cryseilis Holy Kingdom.

Japanese-Parpaldian War[]
During the Battle of Altaras Kingdom, the governing board sent out an emergency signal that was answered by the state-of-the-art dragon carrier Palkimaera which launched 12 Wyvern Overlords to fly to the island. However, the Imperial governing army had already been destroyed and Japan's military had left the battlefield. When news of Japan's mechanical aircraft reached Esthirant, the military requested financial resources to mass produce them, believing they would be enough to counter them.
In the Esthirant Air Strike, the Overlords are used to defend the capital. However, they easily defeated by the Japan Air Self Defense Force's Mitsubishi F-15J Kai and the remaining units on the ground bases are bombed by the BP-3C's carpet bombing.
