An Empty Lot inside Angel City, Dukedom of Angela.
Ever since the War of Alliance and the signage of trade agreements with the Independent State of Aeternum were done. Princess Angela Seraphim was eagerly waiting for Aeternum official to visit her nation. But despite already a few months have gone by, Aeternum has yet sent any Official other than a representative that only come to buy a few acres of empty land on the edge of Angel City. Yesterday, after a few weeks of the radio broadcast saying that Aeternum is now finally able to travel in the sky, an Aeternum officer that in charge of buying the few lands comes to the palace and inform that a convoy of trade ships will arrive today, and asking permission to enter the Dukedom of Angela and the Angel City.
Though the request was a bit odd to the Royals of Angela Dukedom, Princess Angela Seraphim who were trusted by her mother to deal with this request allowed the permission of not attacking anything that looks like an
"Sir..all the Airships has landed on their destinations safe and sound..the constructions of our consulate is already undergoing..also all the representative is already in the meeting with the local government…". (Andrea)A few days after all the Airships already reached their destinations, Me and My cabinet were having our usual weekend meeting. This time, the meeting is really important because right now it's already the last months of this year, in just a few days the Famous Monster tide/Stampede month will come."great…make sure the Superstore finished first..we need all those merchandises we brought to enter the market as fast as possible…Bina, How about our border security?.."."Everything is in control, the wall already fully built and reinforce….all the gathering monster point has been culled, there's no danger of dungeon break happening all around Aeternum….Also, I have launched regular air observations usi
"The answer is still no...Virtue Biology will not be sharing the VH-Serum with any organizations and only the Treatment center that affiliates with Virtue will be given rights to administer the use of VH-Serum…".When I reached the Virtue Financial Gorea Branch Main Office, I roll straight into multiple meetings. Also, Catherine managed to make me attend important media interviews, the questions were quite spicy, but I'm able to handle everything just fine. "Why is that you seem to be very protective about VH-Serum…are Virtue Trying to monopoly this vials of miracle?..". (Reporter)"Monopoly?….no, VH-Serum is my brainchild….the effects of this serum were not simple, and I only trust my company which, I already make sure that they will handle the serum as I was supposed to…I made this to improved OUR state of life..and as long as I'm alive, it will stay that way….".There no such thing as good hand
After the hectic schedules a few days ago, I've been resting in my lovely mansion by myself. Since Sharon wanted me as her model for the Male Cosmetics lines for the Virtue Cosmetics, I'm just waiting for her call. She also made my participating a piece of big news, she appeared on multiple shows just to brags about it, now even I was nervous about it.Just to take away my nerve from it, I've done a lot of research on modeling. Reading a lot of books and even hired a professional coach, the past few days was kinda like a funny scene in my home. In the meantime, I also have T.A.S keep researching all the things that will benefit Aeternum, mostly about technological aspects and predictions of the Aeternum path in the future. The Airships mainframe still continued its productions, as it will surely be sold to the public, the Public versions will be lowered in spec than the Aeternum use one. A few tweaks were made so that, the buyer will have no choice but to turned to Aetern
"There's a lot of celebrity in this place….Dae Jung-Ssi..your mouth is opening.."."Oh..sorry about that..". (Bang Dae Jung)Inside the Corn like building, there's another building and the place looks like an overtly luxurious gathering spot for celebrities. There's an event hall for concerts and stuff, thousand of studious. It's a multimedia entertainment center, as we were walking to the photo shot studious, we walk past a lot of well-known celebrity. I even saw my favorite comedian in one of the studious, As for my entourage they got their heads turned to left and right as they see their favorite celebrity."How do you like the place?…it's worth it right?..". (Sharon)Finally able to catch up to me, Sharon flashes her hand to show her pride works which are the entire building design."I guess so...but I am more concern about the result…this cosmetics line is important..why because VH-Serum is in it…".
"Yeon Ja Unnie..is something going on over there?..why are there so many people out here?..". (Hwang Hwa Young)Hwang Hwa Young who just arrives for her next work feels baffled as she looks over large crowds that blocking her way into the Photo Shot studio. Her manager who next to her has also had the same expression as her."I don't know….wait a minute let me ask them..". (Yeon Ja)She then goes over to the crowd and asks. A few seconds later she came back with a casual look."Someone we know is currently inside..figures, there's a lot of people watching….The president is inside..". (Yeon Ja)Shrugging her shoulder, she flashes her smiles as she looks at the beaming Hwa Young in front of her."Really?...Umm.Unnie how do I look?..should I change my clothes?..". (Hwang Hwa Young)Hearing that the man she admires is currently inside, it made her nervous and fidgety like school girls that were about to meet her lo
Apparently, model work can take a lot of time, Thanks to that the lunch that I and Hwa Young were promised to have had to be canceled because by the time we end the photo shot, it's already evening."Never thought this will took a lot of time…I guess this is normal for you right?.."."it's always like this…sometimes It took more than 12 hours a day…I once work in a show for 20 hours straight..". (Hwang Hwa Young)Walking out from the studios, instantly we were mobbed by fans, which I assume it was hers. Thanks to Bang Dae Jung and his team of security, we can casually take our time walking. We leave the Virtue Cosmetics Complex and head out to have our dinner, Since I was the one who invited her, I gave her the options to choose where we will have our dinner."...Are sure you want to eat here?…". "Yes, I loved the foods here..they also give a lot of side dishes..why?..is it not to your liking?..". (H
"Detective Jobert..Detective Vera...So how are you both doing?..". (Captain Layla)Captain Layla of The Aeternum police department was finally able to see her 2 newly appointed detectives. Both of them were employed by direct recommendations of The Black House itself, It was shocking news, as these 2 detectives were actually a famous Adventurer. Apparently, they both were found by The President himself as he saves both of them in the recent Dungeon Raid, Their employment was big news all over Aeternum, Because of Vera Deca grievous injury, everyone would've thought that she would somehow be a stump and be sold to slavery, Instead, Aeternum Government saves her by giving her new limbs and even got her a job as a public official.This surprising act of kindness by the government shocked everyone all over the central continent. This news as it was broadcast in the radios, improved the commoner perceptions of Aeternum. Thanks to that, Aeternum has seen a large infl
Fortress of Angel, Dukedom of Angela.Due to the Agreements between Aeternum and The Dukedom of Angela, Aeternum has sent 200 of it's Elite Soldiers to trained the 20 000 of the dukedom royal army. At first, the idea's got a little resistance from both the army and the noble generals, mostly due to the fact that the trainee was mainly females. But thanks to the Royal family itself permitted the co-training and mandated that all the chosen soldiers were obligated to attend the occasion, the resistance fell into only inwards in-satisfactions among the prideful group of individuals.Those ungrateful individuals often raise some conflict trying to underestimate the Aeternum trainer, edging them to slips up and trying to make them into a bunch of fools. Despite they trying all sort of attempts, Aeternum Trainer not even shows a hint of retaliating back, Instead, they just scoff it off, let the resistance bunch run off to the other places and continue training the on
“Then let’s make history. Order the Navy Fleet 01 to launch three additional Type-1 Missiles. Targets: The East, North, and West gates of the capital.”The entire command bridge fell into stunned silence.Every officer, every technician, every strategist momentarily froze. Their eyes flickered with a mix of shock and anxiety as they processed my command. Even the seasoned veterans among them seemed momentarily taken aback.It was one thing to deploy a single missile.But three at once?That wasn’t just warfare—it was an annihilation order.Bina, Lucas, and Eliza, who had been following the situation via video conference, immediately reacted. Their holographic images flickered on the massive display before me, each one expressing their own unique emotions.Bina, ever the stoic and composed tactician, furrowed her brows, tapping her fingers against the table.“Mr. President… I assume you understand the full implications of this move?”I met her gaze without hesitation.“I do. This is th
At 6:45 AM, the order was given. Admiral Duchess Kolarova, commanding the Navy Fleet from the southern front, initiated the launch sequence. The missile streaked across the sky like a comet, its white trail a harbinger of devastation.From the Dragon One, I stood on the bridge, watching intently as the missile’s trajectory was displayed on the holographic screens. My officers around me held their breath, anticipation thick in the air.A few moments later, the missile hit its mark. The explosion that followed was nothing short of spectacular. The Alemia Capital City gates were obliterated, along with the surrounding walls and everything within a 100-meter radius. Dust and debris rose into the sky like a dark mushroom cloud, blotting out the early morning sun.The impact was beyond what any of us had anticipated. The "lowest-grade" missile had proven to be anything but low-grade.The news of the missile strike spread like wildfire through the Aeternum ranks. Soldiers, commanders, and of
BOOM!The object slammed into the city gates, unleashing a deafening explosion that shook the ground beneath their feet. The shockwave rippled outward, sending soldiers sprawling and shattering windows across the city. Dust and debris filled the air as the once-mighty gates crumbled into a smoking ruin.Amariss stumbled backward, his sword clattering to the ground as he stared in horror at the devastation.“What… what is this? What is happening?!”he stammered, his voice trembling with fear. In the distance, the Aeternum Navy Fleet stood poised, their warships bristling with firepower. The single missile had been a warning—a demonstration of Aeternum’s overwhelming strength and precision. And it had achieved its purpose.The soldiers of Amariss’s army, already demoralized and terrified, broke ranks almost immediately. Dropping their weapons and abandoning their positions, they fled in every direction, their panic spreading like wildfire.“Come back! COME BACK, YOU COWARDS!”Amariss sc
“The reports… the soldiers… they are abandoning their posts. Even the Prime Minister has—”“I know,”she interrupted, her voice calm but laced with resignation.“Let them go. They were never loyal to me to begin with.”Her Royal Knight Commander, Lucas Perdue, entered moments later, his face grim.“Your Majesty, the palace remains secure for now, but the city is unraveling. The people are heeding Aeternum’s call, not ours. And the army… they’ve lost the will to fight.”The Queen closed her eyes, taking a deep breath.“Lucas, prepare for the inevitable. Lock down the palace. Imprison those who remain loyal to the Prime Minister and the other schemers. And… prepare for my surrender to Aeternum.”Lucas hesitated, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword.“Are you certain, Your Majesty? To surrender is to admit—”“To admit that we’ve failed,”she finished for him.“Yes. Because we have failed. And the longer we cling to this throne, the more my people suffer….it is of no point to figh
Back at the frontlines, as soldiers readied themselves for the final march, they were moved by the reports circulating from command. The evidence of Alemia’s corruption and the suffering of its people only solidified their resolve. Around campfires and inside armored vehicles, soldiers shared their thoughts openly.One young soldier spoke with determination:“It’s not just about winning the war. We’re here to do something right—to fix what’s broken.”Another nodded, clenching her rifle tightly.“The President and the Vice President have never hidden anything from us. They’ve told us why we’re fighting, and that’s why I’d follow them anywhere.”Even the most hardened veterans were touched by the weight of their mission. One grizzled commander, looking out at the stars, muttered to himself,“We’re not just soldiers. We’re builders of a better future.”As the evening turned to night, a quiet anticipation spread across Aeternum and the liberated regions of Alemia. Farmers working their fi
“[To the citizens of Aeternum, know this: our soldiers, our leaders, and our government are united in our cause. We fight not for conquest, but for liberation. We fight to bring light to a land that has known darkness for far too long. And we fight because we believe in a better future for all.]”As she reached the conclusion of her address, Elijah’s voice softened slightly, carrying a note of hope.“[Let us move forward together—with courage, with resolve, and with the knowledge that we are on the side of justice. Aeternum stands as a beacon of hope, and together, we will bring peace to Alemia Nation. Thank you, and may we all stay safe in the hours ahead.]”The response to Elijah’s address was immediate and palpable. Across Aeternum, workers paused their tasks, families huddled around radios, and soldiers standing in the encampments felt a renewed sense of purpose.In one bustling Aeternum farm, a group of farmers stood together, their hands still muddy from the fields, listening in
“This is why I serve Aeternum,”he said.“Our government doesn’t hide anything from us. The President shows us the truth—the corruption, the suffering, everything. We’re not here for conquest. We’re here to fix what’s broken.”A sergeant nearby nodded.“And the Crown Prince? He deserves everything that’s coming to him. My wife is from Alemia, and she told me stories of what that man has done—taxing people into starvation while throwing lavish parties. It’s disgusting.”Another soldier, a former immigrant from Alemia, added,“It’s not just him. The entire royal family let this happen. But the fact that the President is willing to spare Queen Romella and preserve a part of Alemia’s heritage? That shows we’re not here to destroy—we’re here to rebuild.”Even the officers echoed similar sentiments. In the command tent, a group of captains discussed the decision over steaming mugs of coffee.“This is why we’re different,” one of them said.“Other nations would have razed Alemia to the groun
“What do you want to do, Your Excellency? Should we accept her surrender?”I exhaled slowly, feeling the weight of the decision before me.“We’ll accept it,”I said finally.“But under our terms. She will relinquish everything, including her dignity as a monarch. She’ll serve as an example of what happens when leaders fail their people. Let her live—but only just enough to remind everyone of the cost of her failures.”Elijah’s tone softened, a hint of respect in her voice.“Understood. I’ll finalize the arrangements and have her surrender publicly acknowledged at the right time. This war is finally nearing its end.”I sat back in my chair, my gaze drifting to the reports strewn across my desk. The Alemia Nation, a land plagued by incompetence and corruption, was finally crumbling. Its remnants would soon be swept away by the strength and unity of Aeternum. In the background, the low hum of Dragon One’s engines served as a steady reminder of the impending victory. The final steps were
“It’s over,”she announced, her voice echoing through the chamber.“The Alemia Royalty Faction has fallen—quietly, and without resistance.”The officers in the war room erupted into a flurry of activity, relaying the monumental news across Aeternum’s military network. But amidst the chaos, there was an undercurrent of somber resolve.“This is why Aeternum must lead,”one officer murmured to his colleague.“Their so-called queen waited until the very end to take responsibility—and only when her back was against the wall.”Another officer nodded.“At least she’s surrendering. But the damage is done. Her people have suffered for far too long. It’s time we clean up this mess.”Elijah listened to their hushed conversations; her expression unreadable. Though her demeanor was calm and composed, a storm of thoughts churned within her mind. She knew that this surrender, while significant, was only the beginning. The real work—rebuilding Alemia and bringing it under Aeternum’s banner—was yet to
