The Queen Duchess Angela Weinstein moves to let the Aeternum or in these case, the International Alliance Conference and also the Aeternum Associations, to be the one that were investigating the whole thing, and also providing the solid case against not only the Guilds but also the opposing nobles, is actually a plans that were suggested to her by The Aeternum President right after the Conference ended. Actually at the meeting when the motion regarding spreading the Associations to all the allied nation were made, the reason as to why the Queen Duchess immediately agreed to the motion and also seems to be visibly angered at that time, is because Aeternum has provided her with the situations that is concerning the safety on the entire Dukedom.On that files that she received in that meeting, the content of it were shown all the Guilds secrets operations these entire time, and just how the guilds has been secretly helping and the nobles are also paying the same help to the guilds to ens
Despite the sudden changed of the 3 Guild master expression to the doomed of their fates as Aeternum top figures walks into the Court and just ruined their plans, without them able to say a single words of retort. At the same time, the entire court were also took by the storms as Director Mot went ahead and also unmasked all the opposing nobles factions it her findings. Which undeniably enable the Queen Duchess and also Crown Princess Angela to instantly took the opportunity to punished them as well. Everything just happened so fast, for all the members of the court to keep tracked of what is currently transpiring before their eyes.But ultimately they all knows that The cases that Director Mot and Aeternums Justice Department made against the Guilds and also the opposing nobles were all true, and it was all backed with irrefutable evidence and solid cases. So instead they were taken aback by Director Mot affluent words and presentation through out the cases, and find themselves to ju
Whilst all over the Alliance nation is undergoing a huge waves of changes, now that they have all agreed to apply and wanted to live following the progress tracks that Aeternum has let them all to use. At the Great Southern Wasteland, the situations were a little bit difference because on the contrary expectation that the wasteland will be more manageable for the Aeternum forces, surprisingly it was a little bit to chaotic at the moment. Because currently, the Expedition Division is still in the midst of an intense war against the hordes of Wild Monsters that lived in the Wasteland.Currently, the only person incharge of the entire operation on the scene is Colonel Alessia Di Gianna, as she were with the first of the 2 batch groups that were supposed to be here. Her task is to lead the the Eternal Nights Divisions of her’s to secure the site that were given to the Aeternum by the 4 Representative and set up the perimeter to established the forward operation base. Before the second ba
Ever since the Aeternum Expedition Division touched down at the Wasteland, The 4 young representatives were able to get back to their territories for a few hours, enough for them to go back and report the results of their negotiations to their settlements. Naturally it was great and happy occasion for them, because not only the negotiations were positives but Aeternum forces is already with them. All 4 of them didn’t let the Aeternum forces alone for too long as they all come back to the base after a few hours, with a team of 5 for each of them.But before anything can be discussed or they can even make a welcoming gestures for the Aeternum people that come to these Wasteland with them. The Wild Monster Stampede happened, leaving them stuck without any chances to go away to safety or even doing anything. Naturally, they didn’t want to abandoned the Aeternum forces, as doing so, will reflected negatively on them, so instead they joined Aeternum soldiers on defending the base. All 4 of
Just as the annoucement ended, the entire sky were darkened, what all saw it seems that it was about to be rain that is coming down, instead it was a downpour of Cherry petals, but unlike it’s beautiful appearances. The petals were very deadly. All over the base, the seemingly calm and slow petals that slowly descending to the ground, just suddenly just speeds up and started to cuts everything that it passes through. Nearly all the monsters that were in the 100 meters of the base were killed, riddled with holes all over their tops. For 10 seconds only, the entire areas were filled with wailing monsters screams and howls.To the Representative that took the chances to stands up and run to the upper wall, to take a look at the current situations, they were shocked to see that a single moves from the Aeternum President that as of now, doesn’t even shows his face yet, already cause so much devastation. Their mouth were gaped in shocked even more as on all of the base sides, were then drop
In just 30 minutes, the entire base area were already peaceful, devoid of any monsters aside from the carcasses. As of right now all the base personnel of the first batch already safely went to their long awaited rest and recovery, as the Second batches personnel went off and took over all the works that were left behind by the first batch. So the works continues on, as for the representatives, although they wanted to go an welcomed the President, instead they were told to also take a rest in their designated areas. Which they were more than agreed upon when they were provided with the choice, after all, they too were exhausted by the constant actions.Aeternum soldiers and the Resource Staff that comes in the second batches are now divided into 2 large squads, one was to finished the base out line and second team was to collect and process all the Wild Monster carcasses at once. Luckily all the Airship were being grounded by the president order for now, because to many surprises whic
It was a warm and sunny day, in the Great Southern Wasteland today. To be honest, I thought that it would be looking more grim than what currently I am seeing at the moment. Sure the overall environment of the wasteland, is barren, the situations of the entire scenery looks and felt like the Grand Canyon on earth, it was looking almost like a desert but not yet. Also rather than the temperature looks like it would be high to the point where you can just cooked an egg with the sun. It is actually not that hot, rather it was only slightly above the usually temperatures at Aeternum.The scenery have some greenery on them, there were a little bit of green forest here and there. And there is also all kinds of colour of fauna here, even the trees quite a lot of them were not at all green, in fact there were colorful, be it red, yellow or even purple. Naturally trees with abnormal colour such as these were considered rare and sought after resource that will be very popular in the carpenter
“We visited the Antfolis City, Stammler City, then to Mud Town and Half Stone City, ultimately we started from the North side of our base…circle down to our south..that is the general directions of all 4 of those settlements from our base…it was safe to say that Aeternum Land in the Wasteland, isn’t sandwich between all of them…we are situated a little bit far on their right side….”. (Sergeant Miguel)“I see…that explained why on the way here…I were able to catch a glimpse of those Stammler City…Still, I don’t really supposed that we aren’t surrounded by other settlements…in the next few days, we need to send scouts to starts maps out our surrounding…”.“That’s right, Master…I already deployed 2 team to our south and west side of our base…it’s just a 3 hours mission for each team…it should be enough to secure at least 3 kilometers of our perimeters…”. (Colonel Yvone)I nodded at Yvone timely and considerate planning to arrange teams for scouting at these time. Currently we are having
In bustling city squares, people gathered around public radios and large screens broadcasting the speech. Patriotic songs erupted spontaneously, as street performers played instruments, and the crowds joined in singing with fervor. The sight of Aeternum’s blue-and-gold banners fluttering in the wind became a symbol of hope and unity.For Alemia immigrants like Dario, a young carpenter who fled his homeland years ago, the news hit like a thunderbolt. Dario’s hands trembled as he gripped the edge of the workbench he was leaning on.“They’re going to free it,”he whispered, disbelief coloring his voice. His coworker, an Aeternum citizen, clapped him on the back and said with a wide grin,“Not ‘they.’ We are going to free it.”Dario smiled for the first time in years, tears glistening in his eyes.“Yes. We are.”For the millions of Alemia refugees living in Aeternum, this was a moment of vindication. They had fled their homeland in search of safety, many of them leaving loved ones behind.
“Good afternoon, citizens of Aeternum, people of Alemia, and brave soldiers of our army.Today, we stand at the cusp of history. Today, we march towards the final chapter of a war that should never have been necessary but became inevitable due to the greed, corruption, and incompetence of Alemia’s rulers.For too long, the so-called leadership of Alemia Nation has plagued this continent with its tyranny. Their greed led them to exploit our kindness, pillage our ships, and harm our people. For months, they ransacked our trade routes and embezzled millions of gold coins from our donations meant to help their suffering people. They took what was given freely and returned betrayal.But this war is not only about Aeternum’s justice. It is about liberating a land that has been drowning in oppression for decades. Alemia’s nobles and leaders have ruled with fear, corruption, and cruelty, subjecting their people to a life of suffering, where crime and evil fester unchecked. Their governance ha
“Enough,”I said, my tone firm but calm.“I understand your frustrations, but we must remain focused. This isn’t about them—it’s about us and the legacy we’re building.”Bina and Lucas nodded, though their anger was still palpable. Eliza wiped a tear of laughter from her eye, her grin fading as she straightened up.“We’ll use this situation to our advantage,”I continued.“Their incompetence is our opportunity. At 1:00 PM, we’ll begin the march towards the Central Region. Every front will advance simultaneously, stopping just 2 kilometers from Alemia Capital City.”The generals listened intently as I outlined the next steps.“When we reach that point,”I said, my voice carrying the weight of the moment,“I will address the nation through a live broadcast on Aeternum Media. The people need to see our resolve, our strength, and our commitment to ending this war. This isn’t just about conquering Alemia—it’s about uniting this land under the banner of peace, stability, and progress.”Bina
“You’re telling me this is the actual state of their forces?”Selie nodded, her expression unwavering.“Yes, sir. I confirmed all the information personally during the mission, and cross-referenced it with Count Dracul’s intelligence. The data is accurate.”The absurdity of the report was almost too much to process. According to the findings, the Crown Prince Amaris and Queen Romella’s forces were in complete disarray. Each side could barely muster 10,000 combat-ready soldiers, and those were in poor condition. Their leadership was non-existent, their strategies laughable, and their morale utterly shattered.“It’s like they’re begging to lose,”I said incredulously, setting the report down.“How did they even make it this far?”“They haven’t, sir,”Selie replied with a faint smirk.“They’re just floundering, hoping to outlast one another. Both sides are puppets, controlled by the nobles and vassals around them who are more interested in their own power plays than the war itself.”I le
“Summarize the troop positions and supply lines,”Selie instructed Maiden Aria, who was already pouring over a detailed map of the city.“Yes, ma’am,”Aria replied, her voice calm and professional. Meanwhile, Maiden Liana compiled a list of key figures within the enemy forces, cross-referencing them with the profiles provided by Count Dracul.“Do we need to wake the President?”Victoria asked as she filed her portion of the report. Selie shook her head.“No. The situation doesn’t warrant it. This is less of a war and more of a clean-up operation. The enemy forces are barely worth the effort. We’ll brief him in the morning.”The Maidens nodded in agreement, their movements efficient and precise as they continued organizing the information. Selie couldn’t help but feel a mix of satisfaction and disappointment as she reviewed the compiled intelligence. The state of the Crown Prince Amaris and Queen Romella’s forces was abysmal.“The Crown Prince’s forces are exhausted, demoralized, and p
“The Crown Prince’s forces are as undisciplined and chaotic as this file suggests?”Count Dracul, standing stiffly at attention, nodded firmly.“Yes, Lt. Colonel. They are barely a shadow of what they once were. Their troops are underfed, underpaid, and completely demoralized. The noble’s squabble among themselves, and neither the Crown Prince nor the Queen has the wit or leadership to unite them.”Selie raised an eyebrow, leaning back in her chair with an expression that was equal parts disbelief and disdain.“So, they’re little more than children playing at war,” she muttered under her breath, her sharp tone betraying her disappointment. “It’s almost laughable. If this is what they call leadership, it’s a wonder they lasted this long.”For the next few minutes, Selie cross-referenced every point in the dossier with Count Dracul. Every troop position, every supply depot, and every weakness listed was corroborated. Dracul’s responses were quick and precise, each answer adding weight t
“Count Dracul,”she began, her voice firm and unwavering,“I trust you’ve gathered the intelligence we requested. I need a full assessment of the current situation in the capital—numbers, key locations, morale, everything.”Count Dracul inclined his head and moved to his desk, retrieving a thick file of documents.“Of course, Lt. Colonel. I anticipated your arrival and prepared these reports. They contain detailed accounts of the enemy’s troop movements, the state of the Queen’s court, and the overall morale of the capital’s populace.”He handed the file to Selie with both hands, his gaze flickering nervously as she began flipping through the pages with meticulous precision. The room fell silent save for the sound of rustling paper. Dracul, despite his composed exterior, felt a bead of sweat trail down his temple. Selie’s reputation for strictness was well-known, and he could only hope his work met her exacting standards.Selie’s sharp eyes scanned the documents, her brow furrowing sl
“You know, it’s said that the Maidens could topple an entire city if they wanted. I mean, we’re special forces, but compared to them…”He trailed off, shaking his head. Lionel smirked, glancing back at the young sergeant.“Compared to them? We’re kids playing soldier, Miles. But remember this: tonight, we’re part of something bigger. So, keep your head in the game.”After an hour of steady driving, the convoy finally came to a halt roughly one kilometer east of Alemia Capital City. The soldiers disembarked quietly, their boots crunching softly against the dirt. The chilly night air bit at their skin, but it wasn’t the cold that sent shivers down their spines—it was the sight before them.In the faint moonlight, Alemia Capital City loomed in the distance like a wounded giant. Its once-mighty walls were battered and crumbling, scars of relentless conflict etched into its stone.Surrounding the city, like a cancerous growth, were countless makeshift camps—hundreds of thousands of tents s
“The Maidens will lead the mission. Their unmatched skills, combined with the support of the Special Forces under Captain Lionel, will ensure success. This is a surgical operation—precision and stealth are paramount.”Lionel chuckled softly, leaning back in his chair.“Well, I can’t say I’m surprised. Watching the Maidens in action is a rare privilege, and I’d be lying if I said my team wasn’t looking forward to it.”Selie smirked.“Captain, try not to get too distracted. We still need you to keep up.”Lionel held up his hands in mock surrender.“Noted, Colonel. I’ll make sure my team stays focused.”I stood from my chair, signaling the seriousness of the mission.“Selie, you and the Maidens will infiltrate the capital. Your objectives are threefold: map the city’s fortifications, gather intelligence on troop deployments, and locate key targets for our final assault. Captain Lionel, your team will support from a distance—ensuring extraction points are secure and ready for the operatio
