After about an hour of appreciating all the stuff that I have been spending. The magnificent of all the items that worth the same as a small country GDP, and also 60% of my current wallet, it can be said that I am rather satisfied. After all, all of these items will be used for developing Aeternum in years to come, all to ensure that my empire will lasted a little bit more in that harsh world. I can’t wait to just go back to Aeternum right now, but before these happened I had to plan everything right and also make sure that no one in the mansion or anyone else would be panic of my sudden disappearance.It is 19:00 at Sunday evening right now, Since I have done a lot of paperwork and also guidelines for the company enough for an entire year, ever since I got back. As of right now, the plans for me, is to fully transported all the items that I have bought and delivered them to Aeternum. After that, I can start to fully spectate and direct Aeternum development. Aeternum can be said is in
After what it seems like a long dinner for me and also Butler Bang who have a rather dangerous side of himself, after getting a rather extensive advise from me about his stock buying addictions. Finally I am alone inside of my warehouse number 1, Today my plans is is to Teleport the content of warehouse number 1 and 2. currently these is the limit of my [Teleport] Skill, the area that were able to be inside included inside my [Teleport] range is only these 2 warehouse. So, in another words, to fully transported everything, it would take me a few days.“T.A.S…is there anything that were left behind, or something that I forgot?..”.[None, Master…we have bring the plans, the designs…also, you have approved all the important documents related to the companies and also tell everything that needed to be told….I also have put out the noticed of your ‘Research’ seclusion as always to the company and also those that were important…so I think, everything is ready to go…]. (T.A.S)“Right…oh yeah
“Could you not, appear like that?…can’t you just appear normally..like walking here?..”.“Naturally….I couldn’t, Sire…on these merry occasion there’s need to be a beauty in it…since no one here can do that..then it is my duty to do the job~…But still, I am pleased to see you again sir…it has been rather mundane without you here…Hohohohoo”.(Alfred Monticello)“Sure…here, is the list for all the items here….hand it over to the Transport supervisor…”.“As you commanded, Your Highness…Supervisor!!…Here’s the list!..hurry up and check the content!…”. (Sasu)Alfred as always, appear like these especially at the moment where he deemed that making a spectacle appearance is a must, and the occasions of me arriving here after being away for sometimes is something that he deemed worthy of such flashy appearance. As we were talking, the transport staff, that were always here in waiting at the Teleport Zone, already started to flooding in, and immediately starting to do their work of inspecting al
As soon as the news of my arrival were spread, naturally one by one of my trusted follower arrived to the Teleport Zone, First it was Alfred, then followed by Andrea and Elijah, after a few dozen minutes, it was Mina, Bina and Rafaela also arrived. We do not immediately leave the area, instead we took out leisure times, to relaxed and talked with each other as we observed the Resource Department Staff, moved all the items that I brought. The scene like what happened before me isn’t something that can be usually seen on Earth. Instead of using forklift to haul these boxed and crate. Instead the staff would mixed the effort. Some were using magic to hover the items and moved them around, and there were also, the large sized Demi-Human using their strong physique, Bear Demi-Human and Elephant Demi-Human can lifted and shouldered hundred Kilograms of weight on their shoulders without any problem at all.“It seems that there were quite an array of items these time….I can see that there wer
Spectating the worker moving the crates and boxes at the Teleport Zone, does not takes us very long, after about 40 minutes as the items started to dwindled visibly, all of us are heading back to the Presidential Mansion. Along the way, I can see that New City has started the changes that I have planned before I went back to Earth, at that time, my order is to reorganized the entire city so that It can accommodate the designed for the new looks as soon as I brought over the new plans. Not that a lot that has been changed, rather as per my instructions the roads has been enlarge, so does the sidewalks, on top of that, several buildings has been demolished to make some space.“How’s the rearrangement of the city has been going?…is the entire New City has been completed as I asked?..”.Inside the car, seeing the visible changes as we passed by the Governmental District heading towards the Central District, I can visibly sees that for these part, mostly the part where the car passes, it i
“Oh yeah!…I forgot about that…with Alfred around, I doubt that such things would an issued at all…”.“That is natural, My lord..Hohoho…after you went away…I can’t just bring myself to muddled around in the mansion…aside from taking care of Her highness Princess Ygdrasil…these old man has nothing to do…so why not I give out a little assistance to your highness vision…and surely seeing you these delighted…Hohoho~..my time is simply well spent…”.(Alfred Monticello)I forgot that I have an Arch Lich as my own butler, he actually find something useful to do with his abundance of Magic and also his horde of undead skeletons. With an expert in necromancy in Aeternum, instead of using it just to cause massacre, using the tireless and hunger less skeleton for constructions and labour is another way of correctly using an gifted magical ability.“...But..is it okay?…I mean…you showing your power in the open these whole 2 months…wouldn’t our people have some complaint?..”.No matter where it is t
Arriving at The Presidential Mansion, the entire mansion were in a festive atmosphere. All the Mansion staffs, the maids and all the butlers and Knights were happy to see their lord coming home after a long time. Not to mention all the Maiden members were also here celebrating my arrival, the only person that I can’t see in the midst of these celebratory moment Duchess Kolarova and also Yggdrasil. It was rather odd not to see both of them here. Seeing my rather inquisitive looks, Alfred were fast to take the cue.“Sire, Duchess Kolarova has already went back to Kingdom of Eloesa…she were there to lead the Aeternum Navy as you ordered..recently the Sea Beast has been rather active in the surrounding area of the island…so she was called…”. (Alfred Monticello)“Is that so?…I guess it can’t be help..then again, it’s good that she were doing something…having her here all the time especially now..would be a headache…hahaha..”.Officially although Duchess Kolarova is designated to be my futu
As I revealed the first design of the many that I brought, I presented to them the new looks of Aeternum capital city, New City future looks. These design were not only just a plain architect blueprint, but there were also the full sketch of how it looks when it were finished in both painting, and also the 3d model presentations videos. I spread the blueprint on my Study desk and then played the video presentation on my Desktop computer, or rather since my desktop screen has now been modified to have the Magic Technology in it. The 3d model were shown on a special display mechanism that were developed by Research and Development Department. It was a thing called Image Projections Device. Essentially it was a working holographic projections that were on another level.“.…Dear me….these,…these is so otherworldly….so outstanding….so…beautiful…”. (Rafaela)Rafaela were the same as everyone, the Image Projections Device that showed the 3d model of the finished modified and beautify New Cit
I took another sip of tea, letting the warmth spread through me.Because here’s the delicious irony: by copying our education system, they didn’t just adopt our books and schedules.They were adopting our mindset.Every child who learned using our curriculum. Every teacher trained by our methods. Every official who quoted Aeternum textbooks. They were all little seeds planted deep within foreign soil.In ten years?Those nations would think like us.In twenty?They would be like us. All without a single sword being drawn. I leaned back in my chair, utterly content.Without armies, without bloodshed, we were gaining soft political power over thirty-one nations.Real power.The kind that shaped futures. Mina clinked her cup lightly against mine in a silent toast, her green eyes sparkling.“To the future?” she teased.I smiled, lifting my cup.“To the future we’re writing,” I said.And out there, beneath the quiet, darkening sky, the seeds of a new world had already begun to bloom.The n
In New City, the public watched it all unfold on massive news screens and digital displays.A young woman in a coffee shop blinked back tears.“My mother couldn’t even sign her name,” she said. “Now, she’s going to school at sixty. Can you imagine?”A factory worker on break raised his can of iced tea. “They used to mock us for thinking machines would replace us. Now? My kid’s learning to design them.”Later that evening, President Mies stood at his office window in the Black House, overlooking a city glowing with lights and ambition.Minister Myers entered, holding the finalized signed charter.“It’s done,” he said quietly. “They all agreed. The future begins today.”Mies nodded. “We’ve unified their borders, their defense, and their markets,” he said. “Now, we unify their minds.”A long silence followed. Then, just a single line: “History will remember this moment.” And across the continent, it already had.The evening air was soft, almost languid, as I sat back in my chair, savorin
As the documents were sealed, cameras flashed and live broadcasts streamed the images of rulers shaking hands with President Mies—smiles genuine, eyes alight with purpose.The message to the world was unmistakable:Aeternum does not just lead with power—it leads with knowledge.Later, in a private conversation, Jonathan Myers turned to Mies.“This is more than we hoped.”Mies looked out the window of his office, where the UNA flags fluttered in a perfect row.“No,” he said. “This is exactly what I planned.”Jonathan raised a brow. “And what next?”Mies smiled faintly. “We teach the world… to think like us.”The central assembly hall of New Concordia UNA Headquarters—a gleaming white dome adorned with banners of thirty-one nations—had never been so full.Delegates filled every seat. National flags stood in perfect rows. The giant LED display behind the stage glowed with the symbol of the United Nation Alliance, now framed by a new banner in golden letters:"Education for All – A Future
Outside the palace gates, the citizens of Hallerus City buzzed with excitement. News traveled fast: another king had come, and he, too, had seen the truth.And far beyond the city walls, whispers began in other UNA courts:“Perhaps we should ask Queen Helen for assistance.”“Maybe Aeternum’s model isn’t just for them.”“Could we build this future too?”In the Black House of New City, when President Mies received the report of King Leopold’s visit, he simply closed the folder and smiled slightly."One seed sows a thousand trees," he murmured.And in the fields of Fantasma, the seeds of knowledge had already begun to sprout.The towering skyline of New City shimmered beneath a clear morning sky. It was a perfect day for diplomacy—and a historic one.Within the great glass-paneled east wing of the Black House, Aeternum’s political nerve center, a long oval table had been prepared. Security was tight, the air dignified, yet the atmosphere was distinctly welcoming. For today, President Mie
That evening, Queen Helen hosted a quiet reception for the UNA visitors. Modest food, strong Hallerian tea, and conversation flowed freely.“We’re not pretending it’s perfect,” Helen told them. “But we’re not pretending it’s impossible, either.”One observer raised a hand, smiling. “Would you be open to helping other nations start similar programs?”Helen looked to Merrica, then back to them.“Of course,” she said. “We’ve taken help. It would be wrong not to offer it.”It was the kind of answer that made diplomats take notes. And so, Hallerus—once a fractured kingdom cast in shadow—began to shine in a new light. Not as a symbol of power. But as a model of transformation. And as the scholars walked the streets of Hallerus City, alongside teachers and curious children, they quietly realized: The future wasn’t just being forged in Aeternum anymore. It was spreading.The scent of blooming gardenias filled the royal courtyard of Hallerus Royal Palace. The sun hung high above the battlement
“It’s… beautiful,” she said.Jonathan smiled. “It’s sure is,.”The first major step was the immediate conversion of six major city libraries into public education centers. Then came the pilot schools—one for each major region of the kingdom. Each staffed with a blend of local teachers (newly trained) and educational experts from Aeternum who came to oversee implementation.Within a month, Hallerus Elementary Schools opened their doors for the first time. Children from farming villages and mining towns, who had never once held a book of their own, were now reading stories about space, science, and society. They learned arithmetic on digital chalkboards and watched recorded lectures from Aeternum instructors. Classrooms were modest, but organized. Desks were salvaged, but steady.The change was jarring. But it was real. Queen Helen visited one of these pilot schools in the outskirts of Archenport. There, she saw barefoot children reciting alphabet lines. She watched a young girl raise h
Outside in the streets of New City, a mural was already being painted on the wall of a youth center—depicting two children, one Aeternian and one Hallerian, sitting together at a shared desk beneath the words:"Wisdom Unites What War Divides."The mural was uncommission—but no one was taking it down. From within the homes, classrooms, and council chambers of Aeternum, the message was clear: the world was learning, and they were learning from Aeternum.And that made the people walk taller.Because every road rebuilt in Hallerus, every classroom opened, every young mind taught in their system—was a quiet victory for Aeternum’s vision. The age of empires was ending. The age of influence had begun.The great hall of Hallerus Royal Palace hadn’t hosted a summit like this in over a generation. Not for war. Not for taxation. But for education.Long tables stretched beneath arched stone windows, newly adorned with fresh flags representing each province of the Hallerus Kingdom. The air smelled
Contracts were awarded to the newly established Hallerus Road Commission, overseen by both local talent and advisory engineers from Aeternum. Bright orange marker flags began appearing all over the kingdom, outlining future road paths. Caravans brought in equipment, gravel, construction tools—and, notably, several transport trucks from Aeternum carrying the first batch of reinforced roadstone, a durable blend sourced from the Stone Ring mountains.Helen personally visited the first construction site just outside the capital—a winding, broken stretch leading to a key trade town in the east.She knelt beside the workers, running her fingers through the packed dirt and gravel. “This path,” she said to a nearby foreman, “will be the spine of our kingdom.”He blinked, surprised at her presence, then bowed. “Then we’ll make sure it’s strong, Your Majesty.”As roadwork began, the kingdom watched. Villages previously isolated by floods or rough terrain saw the first signs of inclusion. Mercha
The project would take time—perhaps years—but its impact would begin in weeks.“Once the roads are in place,” Merrica said, entering her chamber with a report in hand, “we’ll be able to move goods faster, respond to crises quicker, and prepare for the second phase: economic zone development.”Helen took the report with a tired, but satisfied smile. “This… this they will see. This they will believe.”“And when they do,” Merrica said, “they’ll follow.”Late that night, as the wind howled against the palace windows, Helen stood in her private study, gazing out at the flickering torches lining the city streets. In her hand was a smooth, curved stone from the first road pile—just a plain stone, but to her, it was the beginning of a foundation.Her fingers closed around it as she whispered to herself, “Let this road lead us to a better kingdom.” And with that, the first steps into a new Hallerus had begun.The throne room had seen war plans, council betrayals, and royal declarations. But on
