At this point, whenever something profound comes from the Princess mouth, is something that no one would take lightly at all. They all knew that the Princess is someone that is truly befitted her place and crown, although she was a little bit innocent all the time, her words carries some weight. And when she speaks about death, she really meant it, she is warning Countess Sarra Gust about her behaviour towards her. She knows that the Countess did not meant ill will towards her, and she knows what the Countess is trying to do, which is determining her values in Aeternum, and she straight up told her not to do it to her.“Princess, What do you mean, that Vice President Elijah loves, Snakes minded people?..”.(Duke Oliver Gust)He knows his second wife, is a calculated and also knows how to scheme, but nevertheless she is a great wife, woman and mothers. She is kind and gentle, only acted hostile to her enemies. And such classification from the princess is not a harmful words to her or th
As soon as the car pulled over in front of the Palace entrance, Knight Mathild, were fast to opened the door to the Princess side, has her habit were to jumped out as soon as she arrived as she always does. As a great bodyguard she knows this as a part of her routine, and never wanted to impede her mood at all. 2 rows of professional butler and maids were lined up on the both side of the red carpet leading to the Palace front door, a magnificent shows and tradition. That shocked the Gust family as soon as they saw this views.It is not easy or cheap to have a professionally trained maids and butlers, with a perfect aspect on all of their profession aspect. It was a perfect display of not only servitude but also professionalism, even most royals did not have this kind of wealth to have such privileges. This naturally stunned the Gust family, moreover for Duke Oliver Gust, Duchess Cassi and Countess Sarra, they were stunned when they saw, an old gentleman waiting at the door. The man we
The Gust Family is currently enjoying their time, visiting the Aeternum Royal Palace, everyone were welcoming to them and what is more that, the Palace head butler, Alfred Monticello were there to accommodate them entirely, letting them know and learned about the Royal family and history. It was like a study visit for everyone, since the palace has a lot of Aeternum historical artifact of display, which most of them is Aeternum earliest developed tech items. Everyone were peeling their eyes with amazement the entire time, it was certainly enjoyable, but above all, Duke Oliver Gust he come here actually in hope of meeting with the President.Since he was here, why not speaks with him about the earlier matter, and clear everything up. It is much better this way rather than assuming things and hoping everything to be just fine. But, even if this was the Aeternum Royal Palace, meeting a royalty that lived in it, is not so easy, it was the same as every royal family out there, Aeternum als
For the Gust Family, who is now in audience with the President of Aeternum, they were all on their toes, after all this is their new lord. For President Mies, this is a rather surprising situations, for them to actually meet with Yggdrasil and bring her home. Earlier today, this family were the target of assassination of their previous nation, intelligence organization. The Intelligence organization that hailed from Alemia Nation were already being squashed by now, all the Alemia Nation intelligence network in New City has all been destroyed just a few minutes ago, and now the operation has spread to all over Aeternum, which a full complete elimination might be done in tomorrow or the day after.“Seeing you here, Duke Oliver..is rather surprising to me…I never thought I would see you today…oh, Student Treasury Francesca..it’s nice to see you again, young lady….did, our Princess being a troublemaker today as well?..”.“It is nice meeting you again, Your majesty…Princess Yggdrasil is al
After all the pleasantries is passed with, it was time to get into the true conversation that seems to have been bothering Duke Oliver Gust quite a lot. I noticed his rather odd behaviour from before, from the moment I saw him he seems a little bit off, his usual confident self is somewhat waver. Also both of his wives, is also quite shaken a little bit, so does Student Francesca, she is usually mirrors my behaviour, being objective and unfazed, I sees Francesca a lot in this mansion of mine, she and Adriana Jelina often sent Yggdrasil home. Turns out, both her and Adriana Jelina is already close friend with Yggdrasil, so in returns I usually teach Francesca Oliver a few things and guided her and give her a chance to grow into a fine future leader.But today, she seems a little bit shaken, like she were worrying about something and I am sure it was because of her family. Now that I remember what Mot said to me earlier, she had met with Duke Oliver whilst she was hunting down the spies
Duke Oliver asked me why not just wiped everything that bothers me, he is really a straight forward person he is wise, but at some region, he is just not very good in some of things. On the other hands, Countess Sarra Gust his wife seems to picked up something from my words and her expression is that of understanding of Aeternum approach. Seems like Jelina is correct about her, this second wife of the Duke is quite a charmer for Aeternum style of governance.“Dear…if A.C.I.A just decided to just demolish everyone…then Aeternum will get a bad reputation and disagreement from everyone…they would all backed out and started to fall out of line..people need a hopes..even if that hopes is an empty ones….beside, from their own spies…we can control what they can know or not…it is much simpler that way…”.(Countess Sarra Gust)“So..it is better for them to get something that they thought they got it with their own efforts…while in actuality it was something that WE gave them instead…just so the
Meeting with me, I supposed has eased quite a lot of tension in the Gust Family, I supposed, because today they are already resuming their halted activity. Also, Gust Family really are quite rich, in just a single day, they have deposited roughly about 100 million credits into their family main account, on top of that they are already in their shopping spree, buying cars and everything. Perhaps, the Gust Family, already entering the top 1 percent wealthiest family in Aeternum, despite them not even opening a business or anything. When their Eastern Territory were brought in, with the abundance of their mines there. Even the Monti Family who is now, the mogul of Aeternum private constructions business might have to yield their richest family status to Gust Family.“Looks like someone is enjoying their time to the fullest…”.“They did, they even bought a lot of high end furniture's to bring back to their territory..which cost hundreds of thousands…”.(Andrea)Right now, in my office I a
When it comes to the refugee situation in Aeternum, such problem rare got settled at all, every day the numbers of refugees that comes to Aeternum only increase, it never goes down. And naturally as for Aeternum benefits, we never really turned them down at all, we accept all that we can, because the added numbers of new population would always helped Aeternum to grow even bigger and provided Aeternum with a lot of benefits. Up until now, The Alemia Nation and Aeternum border, or the Eastern border of Aeternum as we called it. Has been shut tight under my direct order, it was for Aeternum protection from the pest at the Alemia Nation.Due to the Crown Prince Amariss betrayal and the non responsive Queen Romella about the entire thing. I have decided to just barred them from access to Aeternum, which I am certain the effects has not only cause a lot of negativity going on in the nation, but also has made them loss quite a lot of their finance. Refusing to not just barred the entire nat
“Learn the Craft of Visual Storytelling! Enroll in the Aeternum Film Academy Today!”Students from all over Aeternum flocked to sign up. Aspiring actors hoping to be the next big star. Writers eager to bring their stories to life. Technicians fascinated by the magic of film.Even our allied nations sent students, eager to learn about this new frontier of entertainment. The future of the film industry had been secured.“If there are no theaters, there’s no audience.”Right now, Aeternum was the only nation with cinemas. But the true money wouldn’t come from just our own population—it would come from exporting movies and cinema technology to our allied nations.And so, we struck a deal. Each allied nation would provide land and funding for the construction of cinemas. Aeternum would bring in the technology, train workers, and provide the films.The profits would be split—40% for Aeternum, 60% for the host nation. This trade cooperation would not only strengthen alliances but also ensur
“Coming Soon: Aeternum’s First Movie – Directed by the President Himself!”The public reaction was beyond anything I had imagined. People were talking about it in markets, cafes, and even at work.“Did you hear? The President himself is acting in this film!”“I don’t even know what a movie is, but if the President made it, I have to see it!”“They say it’s like a play, but the characters are on a magical screen. How does that even work?”The excitement was contagious. Even foreign merchants and diplomats in Aeternum were intrigued—they, too, wanted to witness this mysterious new form of entertainment.Shooting the movie was not easy. Unlike Earth, Aeternum had no experienced film industry professionals. Camera operators had to be trained from scratch.Actors had to learn how to deliver lines naturally instead of exaggerated stage acting. Lighting and set design had to be invented entirely from the ground up.One of my biggest struggles?Teaching the actors to not look directly at the
On screen, ANBC reporters walked the streets, interviewed important figures, and even showed battlefield footage of Aeternum’s military exercises. The people were shocked, their jaws dropping as they saw moving images of places they had never been."It’s like I’m standing there with them!" A shopkeeper had exclaimed in an interview, reacting to seeing footage of Angela’s train network expansion.But news wasn’t the only thing that took the world by storm.I had taken it upon myself to recreate classic entertainment from Earth, bringing a whole new level of culture to Aeternum.Dramas and Soap Operas – Noble romance, political intrigue, thrilling battles, and dramatic betrayals captivated viewers. Families gathered around the television, watching scripted stories unfold before their eyes for the first time.Short Films & Movies – Storytelling evolved overnight. Actors and playwrights who once worked in theaters had now found a new home in television. The birth of Aeternum’s film indust
“For the first time ever, we bring to you, the Dukedom of Angela—as seen through the lens of Aeternum television!” Quara announced proudly.The footage zoomed in to Angela City, its sprawling medieval-style castles and townships standing in stark contrast to Aeternum’s modern metropolis. The streets of Angela were bustling, the markets filled with traders, and most importantly, the brand-new train station was shown in full glory—with an Aeternum-built high-speed train pulling in.Loud cheers erupted from across the nation.“I never thought I’d be able to see another country without having to travel!” a young boy marveled, watching from his family’s living room.Back in the Angela Grand Plaza, where a giant public viewing screen had been set up, Angela’s own citizens were watching themselves on the Aeternum News.A young Angela nobleman paled, tugging at his collar. “Is this how they see us? We look so… so old-fashioned compared to them!”His companion, a wealthy merchant, nodded. “The
As life in Angela rapidly modernized, one final surprise awaited its citizens—a marvel unlike anything they had ever seen before.Under President Mies’ orders, Minister Rafaela of A.R.D.H.M. (Art, Research, Development, Health, and Magic) had finally completed a project years in the making.Aeternum had officially invented the world’s first television.At Angela’s Grand Plaza, a massive gathering of people stood in front of a newly constructed screen.“Is this… some kind of moving painting?” an old man asked, adjusting his spectacles.His grandson, a curious boy named Emile, tugged on his sleeve. “Grandpa, look! The picture is… changing!”The crowd gasped as the screen flickered to life, revealing an image of DJ Skelly and Quara Raedrim, two of Aeternum’s most famous radio hosts.“Greetings, citizens of Angela!” DJ Skelly’s booming voice echoed across the plaza. “Today is a historic day! For the first time ever, the people of Aeternum and Angela will witness the future of entertainmen
At Fort Steelward, a border outpost near the west, Angela’s Captain Cedric Durand stood alongside Aeternum’s Colonel Matthias Kael, watching as their combined forces executed a tactical drill.“You train your men well,” Captain Cedric admitted, watching as Aeternum’s soldiers swiftly took down training dummies with precise gunfire and coordinated tactics.Colonel Kael smirked. “Efficiency is key. We fight with strategy, discipline, and superior equipment.”Angela’s soldiers were still adjusting to Aeternum’s modernized warfare, but the results spoke for themselves. Crime rates near the border had dropped by 60% in just three months, and monster activity was at an all-time low.For Angela’s government, this was the best possible outcome. A safer nation meant a stronger economy, happier citizens, and more stability.In the halls of Angela’s Royal Palace, the nation’s ministers convened for a special meeting to discuss the growing partnership with Aeternum.“I must admit,” Minister Jean-
“So…” Baroness Elise folded her arms. “Are you telling us that our businesses are failing because we refuse to acknowledge the common folk as valuable clients?”“Precisely,” Lionel said. “Look, my friends—tradition is fine, but wealth does not care about tradition. You must ask yourselves, do you wish to cling to outdated ideals and watch your investments fail? Or will you embrace modernity and open your doors to the true economy?”The Angela nobles were silent.Marquis Alistair eventually exhaled. “Damn… I hate to admit it, but you’re right.”Duke Clarence sighed, rubbing his temples. “It seems we have much to reconsider.”Lionel smirked. “That’s the first step to success. Now… shall we discuss how to properly revamp your business strategies?”By the time Angela’s nobles returned home, their entire perspective had changed. Within weeks, their resorts underwent major rebranding, opening their services to the wealthy merchants, military officers, and successful craftsmen that made up A
Duke Clarence and his companions exchanged glances. The idea of a nobility focused on economy and culture rather than ruling and taxation was unthinkable in the Dukedom of Angela.At that moment, Countess Vivian Lancaster, a noblewoman from Aeternum’s east, approached the group with a knowing smile. “And you should know, Duke Clarence,” she said smoothly, “there is far more wealth and prestige in industry than in ruling over struggling farmers.”She produced a document, sliding it across the table. It was an investment portfolio—Aeternum Nobles had turned entire mountain valleys into profitable spa resorts, old castles into boutique hotels, and hunting grounds into elite golf courses.Marquis Alistair leaned forward, his eyes widening at the immense profits outlined in the reports. “By the heavens… you’re making millions in mere months,” he whispered.Viscount Lionel nodded, clearly enjoying their shock. “And it is all because we embraced progress, rather than clinging to the past.”Ba
“This railway is not merely a connection between nations,” Queen Angela declared, “but a symbol of progress. A bridge between past traditions and the bright future we shall build together.”President Mies added, “With this project, Angela will no longer be isolated or vulnerable. It will be a thriving hub of innovation and prosperity.”The people roared with approval, commoners eager for job opportunities, and nobles eager for increased wealth.Meanwhile, across the border, envoys from Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation secretly observed the Angela-Aeternum railway collaboration.One Hallerus official slammed his fist onto his desk upon receiving the report. “They’re building a rail network that connects Aeternum to the Forbidden Wasteland?! If this continues, Angela will become untouchable!”A Golden Triangle merchant sneered. “Tch. Those fools in Angela have completely sold themselves to Aeternum. But we can do nothing. Our king already declared hostilities. We are lock
