At the northern Visma Nation, the territory of Duke Racall Yulga, inside of his own city, Aeternum agents from the A.C.I.A were now all suddenly being called back to their base. None of them knew what is going on, but the order that comes to them, just this afternoon were so high that none of them can say anything at all, but to just returned back to the base. Juno and Lane were the 2 Team leaders of the A.C.I.A teams that has been operating in the Yulga City, since a few months ago. As of few weeks ago, their team suddenly become a major focus for the agency, to the point that Juno and Lane were speaking to not just their director, Matriarch Kasuma, but also the Vice President.“Juno what is going on?…we were all got called back to the base all of a sudden…what happened?..”. (Lane)Lane and her team just arrived, she was completely flabbergasted and also frustrated at the moment, her team has been the leading agents on the field that has been keeping eyes on the Duke forces and allie
“Greeting, Director…”.(Juno, Mira & Lane)All 3 of them gave their greeting, since this is outside of Aeternum the only acceptable greeting that they can do is just by putting their left hand on their chest and bow slightly. Matriarch Kasuma and Sasu enters the room and just waving off their greeting with a smile, all the Assassin that were with Matriarch Kasuma also dispersed themselves. These assassin doesn’t really need much supervision they were loyal and able to conduct themselves properly. In Visma Nation moreover the Yulga City these assassin is just undetectable, unless they showed themselves no one can find them.“Enough with the pleasantries, all of you…Hoho~…I am glad to see you 3 growing just fine…Lane and Juno…you both were making me proud with your report….even ‘he’ was very delighted with your work…Hohoho~..”.(Director Matriarch Kasuma)Mira offered the old Director a chair to sit on, all of them were trained by Kasuma herself, she doesn’t joke around when she said that
Everyone in the room were stunned for few seconds, when Director matriarch Kasuma said the word, Extermination. In the A.C.I.A, that kind of words is not common to be used at all, the terms of assassinations were commonly used, but the terms Extermination hold another meaning. This is basically meaning for everyone that their target of elimination for this time, is not just single person or a few people, but a lot of people. This word were used once before, and the effect was, an entire mountains filled with bandit groups were massacred in a single night, by the A.C.I.A, this were done inside of the Hallerus Kingdom when the Bandits were harassing Aeternum Citizens and even kidnapping them. The scale of the operation were so enormous, to the point that the nearby villages until this day believed that the Bandit disappearance were an act of god wrath.“...On what scale are we looking about, Director?..”. (Mira)Juno and Lane were still considered early in the agency as the just recentl
Inside of Yulga City, tonight it was raining really hard, lulling all it’s people to deeps sleeps and relaxations, at the edge of the City, laid the most luxurious and grand estate in the entire Yulga Territory and the city itself. It was the proud estate of the Yulga Family, ruled and owned by the Duke Racall Yulga himself, the 5th Generation of Visma Nation nobles.Despite it was already at a night time, the estate were still brightly lit, the Mansions and building windows were still shining bright. So is the same scenery that it has been the same for over a few months now, Nearly all of the Yulga family vassal has been assembled on this estate, why, because their lord deemed them to be so.When Duke Racall made his decisions to wanting to conquer the Alemia Nation Southern Region to take hold of the now flourish Aeternum River routes, and his plans were shared between his subordinates, everyone were celebrating and praising his brilliance to be able to come up with such tantalizing
Inside of the Yulga family proud mansion, the brightly lit interior, and the widows that shows the bright inside were all slowly vanished one by one. With every minutes passes, one by one the light on the windows went out. Yet, despite this happening no one in the estate even reacted to this particular oddity, why, it was because all the soldiers and guards that were patrolling inside and guarding the outskirts of the estate, is no longer belonged to the Duke Racall forces, but instead the A.C.I.A. The dark night and the heavy rainfall, masked any sounds nor smells of thick blood that are wafting into the air.“Hmmmm~..Chap..chap!….HMMMMMM!!!!….…grruuuu!…”.(Dead Baron)Inside of one of the room, a fat baron who is asleep on the bed whilst holding a nearly died 10 year old little girl, which her private parts were covered with smeared of semen. Got his head got hold down by a pillow, and then a swift dagger slide through it’s neck, yet the killing blow seems top carry more than
The room went silent, as Sasu were inside of it and were just slightly reminded not just Juno and Lane, but also everyone that were on the radio communication channel. No one were able to say a single words, not even the Director herself, who is currently in the middle of carving her blade onto an unsuspecting target necks. This little side banters, shows that although Aeternums agents were effective and quite possibly the best in the world when it comes to their profession, they were not all evil,heartless and inhumane.That is what differs Aeternum A.C.I.A agents from many of the same agency or organization in of it’s same kind on Fantasma. Aeternum A.C.I.A agents were all enters the service with conscience and of their own wills, they wanted to be turned into weapons by their own permissions. Why, because all of them believe that such service is needed in this gnarly and dirty world, evil can only be defeated by evil. If they wanted to protect Aeternum and see that Aeternum become
Everyone were in the state of puzzled and curious, when the heard that Sasu were clearing his throat. Naturally as this were going on, no one were stopping and stand still, they all still have their own personal duty, and the massacre of the Yulga Family still continues, despite the comical incidents that were happening right at the moment.“This Sasu, Secret Service Agent, Head of the Presidential Security Personnel, Agent Number, 001…Requesting Direct communication line with Aeternum Person of Interest, Code Name…Dragon 01…”.(Sasu)It was the famous Code Name in the entirety of Aeternum guide book, as that were the code name only existed to be used and designated for a single person, in Aeternum. Which is belonged to the President of Aeternum himself, the only person in Aeternum that can use the Designation of a Dragon. The President bodyguard are actually going to speak with the president himself, due to an idea of an A.C.I.A agents of just a Team Leader rank.“[SS 001….Identity c
I am quite shocked to woke up from my sleep, as Alfred were outside the door knocking on it, as I opened the door, he was there, with my cellphone on a silver tray, a very butler like action on his part. When I asked what is it, he said that it was a call from the War Room. I remember earlier today, I told Kasuma to dealt with those pesky Duke Racall, i am quite concerned that maybe there were some issues with the mission.“Was there a problem with the Mission Alfred?…”.I took the phones and left my bedroom, after all, Elijah and Andrea were on my bed at the moment, deep in their slumber. We walked into my study, as Alfred were close behind me.“I don’t think so, My Lord…I inquiry the War Room earlier, and the one that asked for the call…is actually Mr. Sasu himself…if that young beaver were the one that calling surely..it wasn’t due to some problem occurring…after all…considering where he is right now…I doubt there is anything that can harm him…”.(Alfred)That is true, Sasu were tra
At first, even with professional teams and structured matches, the stadiums weren’t full. People didn’t understand why they should care. But then… he first matches were broadcasted on television. And suddenly, everything changed.For the first time, people saw their own cities competing. New City United vs. Shark Bay FC. Ironridge Titans vs. Silverport Eagles. Blazing Tundra vs. Redwood Strikers.It wasn’t just football anymore—these were their cities, their teams, their pride. And when fans saw their teams winning, they felt the rush of victory. When they saw their teams losing, they felt the bitterness of defeat.The spark had been ignited. Soon enough… Supporters’ clubs started popping up. Fans flooded stadiums on weekends. People debated tactics in bars, cafes, and workplaces. Children started dreaming of becoming professional players.Saturdays and Sundays were now known as Football Days, where everyone tuned in to watch their favorite teams battle for supremacy.The AFL wasn’t j
“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
