Governess Countess Jelina or in fact, any other person that were in the governor position or level within the Aeternum government, when they heard that their scope of duty were enlarged, all of them will be quite happy to hear such things. Because in Aeternum, when your work and duty were bigger so does the perks that comes with it, be it wages or other special privileges, everything were given by me as a rewards and for Jelina, naturally she would be given a significant raise in her salary and also, a few plots of land. In Aeternum I have already implemented a systems that would last for eternity, which all the land within Aeternum territory is owned and belonged to Aeternum Royal Family, which is me and it was managed by the Aeternum Government.Naturally for the masses they can also buy a plot of land for themselves, but they must meet a strict qualification and rules that were already set on place. In Aeternum Nobles that once owned a land, are right now given on 1 kilometer squa
As soon as the Radio that were on Sareen hands received the radio call from Mina who is out to scouts the forest, a booming sounds echoed through out the entire open field. It was a countless sounds of a stomps, all heading towards tour directions, for someone like me who has been facing a quite a numbers of different kinds of monster in this world already, I kind of getting the pictures here, of what is going on. And soon enough my own predictions has come through, turns out the Monster Stampede is actually got chased by something.“[The monster Stampede is actually got chased by 4 Tier 4 monsters!…and they too were actually infected with the berserk status ailment!….]”.(Mina)“GOOOOOOAAAARRHHHHHH!!!!!…...”.(Frenzy Earth Basilisk)Just as soon as Mina stated her report, the First Tier 4 Monster made his appearance exiting the forest at the edge of battlefield, right in front of me. It was a 10 meter tall monster, that looked almost similar to the armoured dragon lizard ba
When the President of Aeternum announce that the gate to Aeternum Eastern Border would be open to the public and it can now be used as usual, it was a happy news not to just the Refugees that were on the scene but also to many people, especially for the Merchants, nobles and the soldiers of fortune that were on the eastern side of Aeternum. Ever since the border were closed, they all who depends on Aeternum economy to make their fortune has to ventures a long way to the Western side of Aeternum border, which for a long time the only accessible way to enter Aeternum.Venturing a long way to be able to enter Aeternum has proven to be a very dangerous paths, after all, there is a lot of range to cover, not to mention they have to passed through several nation to get to the Western Border. The threat of monsters attacks, banditry and some places, an exorbitant taxes were always plaguing this class of people. Thanks to this, there were many that has given up to go to Aeternum, but now the
“What?!…a Tier 4 Monsters?….that is absurd!…can this got any worse?….there is a lot of refugees there!..”.(Concerned Listeners)“It’s doomed!…everything is over now!…not just the Aeternum but the refugees as well…oh lord…why is the reality so harsh…”.(Depressed listeners)For the many listeners outside of Aeternum they were already feeling the death looming around them, surely all hope has lost by now. Aeternum who has been so good all this time is about to face their ultimate demise, until today, there has been no story or rumors that anyone were able to defeat 3 Tier 4 monster at the same time and able to survive. It was simply impossible feat to achieve, even a single Tier 4 monsters needs at least an entire nation army to defeat them in a battle, which takes days to finished. Aeternum surely in a peril right now, naturally if the international listeners were already this depressed, in Aeternum it was a whole another story.“OH MY GOD!…our president!..aaahhh!!…my god!..please!…just
nside a certain Conference room, inside of the Black House, where Elijah and Matriarch Kasuma were leisurely enjoying their tea, actually they were not truly completely alone. Because at the same time, they were receiving calls from many people, and all of them were the leaders of the alliance nation. One of them is naturally the closes ally of Aeternum, Dukedom of Angela, Queen Duchess Angela Weinstein, then it was King Udo Crystal of the Giant Lake Crystal Duchy and King Sebastian Marsner Redwall, King of the Setting Sun Kingdom. This 3 people were the first to call, the Black House as soon as they heard about the news.“[Vice President Elijah….you seems rather quite calm at the moment..despite, President Mies rather in a difficult spot…]”.(King Udo Crystal)“[It’s a Tier 4 Monster…Vice President…it’s not a simple matter for you to be so calm like this….…we cannot let anything happened to President Mies…]”.(King Sebastian Marsner Redwall)The 2 king immediately voiced their c
To Aeternum high officials that knew about the real situations as well as the all allied leaders that called the Black House to issues their concerns as well. By now they all already knows that this matter isn’t at all something that needs for them to be worried, Aeternum has everything under controlled and it was confirmed by the Vice President herself as well. And to all of the leaders, when it comes to Aeternum leaderships, when the Vice President said something to confirmed it, then they all should and must believed her at her words. Because unlike the President, Vice President Elijah were known and have a world wide reputation to not be as kind as the President. By now to many, they secretly views her as the iron hammer of the Aeternum leaderships, the darkness and the slaps of merciless truth of Aeternum, and she is not the kind that like to play nice with people.Naturally, although all the high level officials knows about the truth of this situation, the masses aren’t and when
To everyone is the War Room, the existence of the President is always a big factor, after all, he is a credible one man army after all. Everyone in the War Room knows the nature and the outcome of a war and battle if there is a high level extraordinary combatants in a battle when there is an Aeternum President and 5 ministers involve, they already get used to the absurdity of the result already so this doesn’t come as a shock to them to hear that Lieutenant Colonel Sareen, stated that everything is just fine.“Sareen…did the president said anything before he went forward?…”.(Elijah)“[Not much he said to me…but as always he ordered us to act withing the protocol as always…and I am sure that isn’t just applied to us as well…but to all of us….]”.(Lieutenant Colonel Sareen)To Sareen, she naturally doesn’t know what is currently happening behind the battlefield as she focused on what is before her, but it doesn’t really take a genius to figure out the meaning of Elijah words right now. C
“Madam Vice President…the Broadcast team are ready for you…”.(Lieutenant Colonel Selie)“Alright Let’s go…who would’ve thought that instead of, Our master would be the first to use the Black House official addressed from his office….it would me, who’s doing it first…...”.(Elijah)To calm the masses, the Black House Public relation office has decided to use the new kind of Broadcasting technology that has been used in the past at the International Alliance Conference. And this time it will be using the iconic state addressed from right inside the Black House, Square Office, or the Presidential Office. To be honest, this kind of broadcast are planned to be used by the President only, and the first of it’s kind should be done by him. Who would’ve thought that this time, it would be her, to be the one that would be using it.It doesn’t take too long for the entire preparation to be done. Naturally since this would be one of the momentous moment for Aeternum as it was the first ever
“T.A.S.,”Mies Sai said, his tone shifting to one of command,“Open the communication line to the admiral.”Within seconds, the image of Admiral Duchess Kolarova appeared on the screen. Dressed in her pristine navy uniform, her sharp features exuded authority and confidence.“Admiral,”Mies Sai began,“I want your fleet to break away from the southern troops and position yourselves for long-range artillery bombardment. Your fleet’s firepower is unmatched, and I want the enemy to understand the futility of their resistance.”Kolarova saluted crisply.“Understood, Mr. President. The fleet will move into position immediately.”“Additionally,”Mies Sai continued,“Prepare to launch one small missile during the bombardment. It’s not about destruction—it’s about sending a message. Let the enemy see what they’re up against.”A sly smile crossed Kolarova’s lips.“Consider it done, sir. The missile will remind them why Aeternum is a force to be reckoned with.”The Aeternum Royal Navy, with its
“Mama, will the President make our whole country like Brighthelm?”The mother smiled, tears glistening in her eyes.“Yes, my child. He will. And no one will ever hurt us again.”An older man, a former soldier of Alemia’s army, clenched his fists.“This is what we’ve been waiting for. Aeternum doesn’t just bring soldiers—they bring hope. Let them march. Let them finish this.”For the Aeternum soldiers, the atmosphere was one of steely determination. The order had come down from the President himself: March forward. No more stops. No more delays. The war ends now.In the Eastern front, soldiers moved in unison, their steps a rhythmic cadence that mirrored their collective resolve. Vehicles rolled steadily forward, their engines humming a low, determined growl. Tanks, Humvees, and armored carriers trailed the long columns of soldiers, while helicopters hovered overhead, their shadows dancing on the ground.Inside one of the vehicles, a young recruit turned to his comrade.“Do you think w
“Madam Vice President, all personnel have boarded. The airships are ready for departure.”Elijah turned to him, her expression one of quiet determination.“Good. Ensure they have a secure flight. The success of this mission doesn’t just depend on the battlefield—it hinges on our ability to stabilize Alemia the moment it falls.”As the airships began to lift off, Elijah clasped her hands behind her back, watching the fleet ascend into the sky. She allowed herself a brief moment of satisfaction. Aeternum’s reach was about to extend further than ever before.In a private moment, Elijah returned to the War Room and gazed at the holographic map of Alemia Nation. The Central Region, highlighted in red, was slowly being surrounded by the advancing Aeternum forces.T.A.S, the President’s sentient AI, chimed in through the room’s speakers.“Madam Vice President, all preparations are proceeding according to plan. Victory is statistically inevitable.”Elijah smirked.“It’s not just about victory
The café, with its elegant glass windows and flourishing ivy, was abuzz with its usual morning crowd. However, one table in the corner stood out. Crown Princess Angela, seated with her usual poise, sipped her chamomile tea as she addressed the gathering of foreign dignitaries.Around her sat Countess Hessina Redwall of the Setting Sun Kingdom, a cunning diplomat who rarely minced words, Princess Yuneda Crystal of the Giant Lake Crystal Duchy, known for her charm and pragmatism, and Princess Nelly Nirewin of the Kingdom of Nirewin, a fiery orator with a sharp tongue. Despite their differences in personality and origin, all shared one thing in common: their countries' fates were intertwined with Aeternum’s ambitions.Angela placed her teacup gently on the saucer and let her steely gaze sweep across the table.“Ladies, let us dispense with pretenses,”she began, her voice firm but elegant.“Today marks the beginning of a new era—not just for Aeternum, but for the entire Central Continent
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
