"GODDAMN!!…You attack a bandits base?!!..Damn dude, that's awesome!…well, given at that era such things was kinda normal…Still, in my opinion I think not all the monster looking race were actually monster, just like the goblins you saved….in D&D and WOW they were quite a civilized race...and the civilizations they had comparable to even human kind….". (Ken)
"That's exactly what I thought so, unlike the other goblins the 2 were much more civilized…I wonder actually happened to them…".
"anyway, you should take in anyone who had similar conditions as them from now on…you know, preserving rare species kinda thing...". (Ken)
Once again I left for earth, and as usual I met with my trusty confider Ken, his confidence and knowledge in fantasy things were always helpful for me. I came back this time not only for that but to buy supplies and to look about Ken progress on
"How about it Mr. Mies, was it enough to satisfy your needs?..". (Lee Han Na)She asked me as we both walk out of a large warehouse in her private secret compound."Yes indeed, looks like choosing you and Krawoski is the best choice…I'm gonna be paying all of this in gold...I also need you and Krawoski to turn my gold into cash can you do that?…"."We can do that, how many are we talking about here?..". (Lee Han Na)Paying in gold wasn't a rare thing in this field of business."About 2 billion worth of gold…just deduct the cost of everything here from that and transfer the remaining amount to this account.."."...Of course, consider it settle…you can expect the remaining amount will be transferred to the account in 5 days from now…". (Lee Han Na)Hearing the sheer amount of gold I'm telling her to handle made her perplex a little bit, but slowly smiles creep back on her lips, it's rar
As I reducing the amount of my paperwork, T.A.S still haven't give up my rewards for the quest completions. I was wondering what is that damaged magical observer."TAS…I'm still waiting though…".[Ding!….{Trouble Water Pt.1 Quest completed}…Rewards available for collections…Traveller Assisted System ready for upgrade…perform upgrade Now?..Yes/No..]. (T.A.S)"Postponed upgrade…now, where's that magical observer?..".[Your Soldier already obtained it…asked your staff for a Weird Cube..]. (T.A.S)Just like what T.A.S Said, I asked Elijah to have her Staff to look for a weird cube from the Bandits Loots, I only waited for a few minutes before Major Eliza from Resource department comes into my office with a 10x10 inch Silver cube in her hand. After putting the cube on my table, she left and leave me alone in my
"Is that all?…you've said it like it was going to be something extraordinary..oh dear me…".[it's quite an upgrade if you ask me…it's like having a Super A.I assistant in a fantasy world I'm basically an internet now…]. (T.A.S)Now back on earth, after I got back the next day I add another gold bar on top of the one inside the warehouse, right now the total weight of gold in there were already at 7 thousand tons which if converted into Dollar it would be around 295 billion.But the stuff that made me face palm myself right now was the outcome of T.A.S and MO-501 upgrade. T.A.S now have become an internet in Fantasma, it can made itself fused/appeared inside any electronic devices in Fantasma a super Skynet to put it into simple terms, but on earth it only can plant itself in my phone, acting like a A.I that never stop bugging me. As for MO-501, it simply got a system update and enhanc
The total combinations of my Dimensional Storage items of right now were 20 Platinum Ring (1 ton each = 20 tons), 290 Golden Ring (500 Kg each = 145 Tons), 100 Dimensional Chest (10 tons each = 10 000 tons), all this was the whole collections, I got all of them from bandits raids like I said robbing people certainly profitable especially the high profile bandits. I use some of the Dimensional chests to store a small machine and tools, as for the Materials and the heavy machinery, I just bought them along with my teleport skill, that's why The whole process took 2 days.After that, we fly back home which took only about 6 hours. The whole process was quite tiring for me, I wondered if I should tell Catherine to buy an airline company stock, I love to get pass the hassle in the airport. There's nothing much to do when I get back home, after washing all my clothes and tidying my house, I back on my PC to research and planning my next step of actions."I guess righ
Aeternum Keep, Meeting room.After Sai Mies leaves the room alone, the atmosphere in the room turned cold, silent, and eerie feeling crept up in every single of the Maidens in the room."Sareen, Selie….".(Elijah)Elijah finally opened her lips calling out 2 names, nodding at hearing their names, both of them disappeared from where they were standing and reappeared beside the main door blocking it from opening. Radian who sat beside Elijah also stood up and starts wearing her knuckle duster on her right fist."Juliet, Mot, Anna, Reven, Colleen...explain…".(Elijah)This five Maidens was the one that shows the tinge of loss in the meeting a few moments ago. Unlike their beloved master who decided to ignore their behavior, Elijah and the 4 sisters weren't thinking the same. The calm and loving elder sister's image was no longer there instead, a raging madness flares up in Elijah eyes glaring at the 5 maidens."Sister&he
5 days after the surgery, Aeternum General Hospital 2nd Floor VIP Ward."Try to move your fingers slowly…good, looks like everything is functioning normally as it should….Rafaela, make sure to monitor Elijah's conditions and developments as she comes for her regular inspections..".<CLAP! CLAP!>"Congratulations Sister Elijah!!…Congratulations Mr.President!..to gave birth to such amazing miracles, our Aeternum was blessed to have you!…". (Bar)The whole wards were full of Maidens and several other people in the hallway, waiting to hear and witness the full result of Elijah's successful limb transplant. The operations were successful, and the limbs working normally, also thanks to the healing spells the recovery process which is normally taken at least 3 months was shortened to 3 days. Everyone was celebrating, maidens were sobbing with tears of joy, civilian were singing and cheering from within the hospit
"Sir, I don't see why we have to inform the Duke or anyone for the feat we've done…". (Mina)Sitting inside my office, Mina appeared to be dissatisfied as to why I had to inform the duke and to delay the news that I have handled the bandit's situations."We don't have to…but, all this is just a politics...Noble like their pride so much,..it's wasn't news that the duke has been trying to exterminate the bandits for so long…but, we have done it almost effortlessly….if we just come strolling and say 'hey guys! it's done' that would rub them the wrong way….."."So all this just us doing them a favor of saving their face?…". (Mina)"Yes…remember, the duke has high approval among his subject….we need to use that, we need the duke territory for business…with this way, we not only say to the Duke's that we are not a force to mess with, but we also appeal to the public that we are a friendly
"I always thought flying were impossible..who would've thought it was actually this simple…". (Bar)"This is just one of the example Bar,….there's even a flight vehicles that capable to brought hundreds of people flying across a continent…."."Really?..that would be amazing to see, I can't wait to see them sir…". (Bar)After 3 days I've announce that I would be bringing a team to go dungeonering, we finally left the Aeternum capital. Using one of my Helicopter, 5 of us were flying across the large desert called the Big Nothing, Elijah said this desert were to deadly for anyone to wander in, and for thousands of years no one dares to enter it. Actually I already passed through the whole desert to reach Aeternum, it's true that it's dangerous. The last time I came across a scorpion mix with lion that as big as a 5 ton lorry, I still remember that it taste like shrimp."Sir w
A trusted royal scribe—a man who had served the palace for over a decade—was found dead before sunrise. A dagger coated in poison was discovered strapped to his leg. The second attempt followed soon after.A servant carrying tea for the Queen was intercepted before she could enter the throne room. Hidden beneath the silver tray was a vial of deadroot extract, a lethal poison. The servant, after interrogation, confessed that her family had been taken hostage by nobles who ordered the hit.Then came the third, fourth, and fifth attempts. Archers on rooftops. Explosives set along the Queen’s carriage route. Blades hidden in the folds of a courtier’s robes.Each time, the assassins failed. Each time, they disappeared without a trace. Helen knew who was behind it. But rather than show fear, she faced the storm head-on.Seated in her war room, Helen traced her fingers along a map of Hallerus, where red ink circled enemy strongholds. Duke Merrica stood beside her, arms folded, his sharp eyes
Aeternum had taught her a valuable lesson—control is not about force, but manipulation. So, she would make them turn on each other.Helen began summoning the nobles one by one, speaking to them in private meetings. She whispered honeyed words into their ears.“Viscount Talis, I need a reliable man. Duke Rehn is plotting against me, and I require your loyalty.”“Countess Ferros, your influence is invaluable. I fear Duke Rehn is siphoning funds, and I need someone I trust to investigate.”“Duke Rehn, the other nobles are moving against you. You must act swiftly before they remove you from power.”With every meeting, seeds of distrust were sown.The nobles—drunk on greed—were too blind to see that they were being played.And so, one by one, they began to conspire against each other.As the nobles scrambled to destroy each other, Helen’s true loyalists made their move.Under the cover of darkness, handpicked assassins carried out eliminations with precision.Duke Rehn?Found dead in his s
“Then Mies will destroy Hallerus.”Helen turned sharply toward him. “You think he would go that far?”Merrica didn’t even hesitate. “Yes.”Helen stared at him, searching for a lie. A hint of hesitation. But there was none.“He will not give you mercy a second time, Helen,” Merrica said. “If those nobles push for war, if they even dare to challenge Aeternum—you will lose.”He took another step forward, his voice heavy. “And I will not be able to protect you.”For the first time in their conversation, Helen looked away. Merrica saw it. The fear. The realization.She already knew everything he was saying was true. She had just been too proud—too trapped—to admit it.Silence hung between them. Then, at last, Helen spoke.“…What do you want me to do?”Merrica finally allowed himself a small sigh of relief.“You already know what must be done, Helen,” he said gently. “You must take back your court.”Helen slowly nodded, though her expression remained grim. “Those nobles will not leave peace
“Merrica understands that if Hallerus moves against Aeternum, we won’t hold back.”Kasuma gave a knowing smirk. “And you won’t hesitate to destroy them.”I met her gaze, unblinking.“No.”A heavy silence fell between us.Kasuma leaned forward, her voice softer but firm. “You don’t want war with Hallerus.”“No, I don’t,” I admitted. “The people of Hallerus don’t deserve to suffer for their queen’s mistakes. Merrica doesn’t deserve to be put in that position.”Kasuma studied me for a moment before sighing. “Then let’s hope Duke Merrica succeeds.”I ran a hand through my hair, my thoughts swirling. Visma was controlled. Chaos was their prison, and we held the keys. Hallerus, however, was different.It was once an ally, a friend, a brother. But betrayal had shattered that bond. Still… I didn’t want to be the one to crush it completely. I drummed my fingers on my desk. If Helen could be saved, then perhaps—A knock interrupted my thoughts.“Enter,” I called.An ACIA officer stepped in, bowi
The Merchant Guild Leader, Darvio Vinn, who had profited the most from blocking Aeternum trade. His warehouses stored inferior goods at premium prices, keeping the economy strangled in his grip.The General of the Royal Army, Lionel Ferin, who had bled the treasury dry with excessive military spending, preaching about “independence” while weakening their forces with outdated tactics.They had to be removed. One by one, quietly, without causing suspicion. But how? Merrica could not simply accuse them—Helen trusted them. If he moved too boldly, she would see him as the enemy.No, he had to be careful. He had to play the game. Merrica stood, pouring himself another glass of wine. He would begin by exposing the corruption—turning the people against the parasites that fed on Hallerus.The merchants would learn how Darvio Vinn had been overpricing basic goods. The military officers would see how General Lionel Ferin had been wasting funds on obsolete strategies. The court would hear whisper
At a local tavern, I overheard a group of soldiers drunkenly complaining."Our weapons are old.""Our rations taste like pig slop.""Did you hear? Even Alemia is receiving Aeternum goods now.""We should have never broken ties."I smirked. They knew. Their queen had failed them, and their nation was falling behind while the rest of the world thrived under Aeternum’s soft power. The people of Hallerus were not fools. They saw the rising prosperity of the allied nations, the luxurious goods, the technological marvels, the entertainment, the food. They could only watch in envy.At sunset, I met with Duke Merrica Murrs at his estate. His once-proud posture had been replaced with exhaustion. His eyes, which once held confidence, now carried deep regret.We sat in his grand study, the silence stretching between us. Finally, he spoke."I should have stopped her."I said nothing."I vouched for her. I believed in her." He exhaled, shaking his head. "And now, my people suffer because of my mis
Meanwhile, in Yulga, Maria sat comfortably in her study, reading the latest reports.Lysander stood beside her, amused. "Another assassin failed. This is getting predictable."Maria smirked. "Vismal thinks he’s playing chess, but he’s only moving pawns."She set down her glass, her eyes gleaming with amusement. "Let him keep trying. Let him think he has control.""And when he finally realizes he doesn’t?" Lysander asked.Maria leaned back, exhaling softly. "By then, he won’t be king anymore."While King Vismal wasted his energy plotting assassinations, he failed to see the true danger.His nobles squabbled over the black market. His people secretly craved Aeternum goods. His own soldiers whispered of defecting.Visma was rotting from the inside out. And Maria? She simply watched it happen. She wasn’t just controlling the black market. She was controlling Visma’s fate. One failed assassination at a time.King Vismal III believed he could eliminate Maria Yulga. He believed he could take
"Oi, you got the stuff?""Yeah, yeah, keep it down!"A merchant nervously looked around before handing over a carefully wrapped package."This is the good stuff—straight from Aeternum. Papa Pizza’s special cheese blend. Got it from a merchant who knows a guy who knows a guy."The buyer, a Visma noble in disguise, snatched it eagerly."Finally! I’ve been dying to try this! You have no idea how boring Visma’s food is compared to Aeternum’s cuisine!""Yeah, yeah, pay up first.""Fine, fine—how much?""Two hundred gold pieces."The noble nearly choked. "T-Two hundred?! That’s robbery!"The merchant smirked. "And yet, you’re still going to pay it, aren’t you?"The noble gritted his teeth, but handed over the money anyway. Aeternum’s products were so desirable that people were willing to spend fortunes just to get a taste.And that was exactly what ACIA wanted. By controlling the underground economy, Aeternum achieved multiple goals:Economic Control – Even though Visma banned Aeternum’s pr
The people were asking too many questions. The smugglers were getting bolder. Even their own guards and soldiers were caught listening to Aeternum’s broadcasts in secret. A revolution wasn’t just coming—it was being broadcast live.In an attempt to regain control, the non-allied nations did the only thing they knew how to do—They cracked down. Massive raids were conducted in the dead of night. Entire villages were searched. Merchants were arrested. Radios were smashed in public squares.But no matter how many products they confiscated, no matter how many smugglers they punished, it didn’t stop. Aeternum’s influence was already too deep. The people had tasted the forbidden fruit—and they weren’t about to let go of it.What made matters worse was that not everyone in power was loyal to the cause. Behind closed doors, even high-ranking nobles were secretly buying Aeternum’s products for themselves. Some were sneaking off to allied territories under the guise of “diplomatic visits” just s
