In a span of 5 minutes, the ever so glorious and most fearsome Empire Assassin Organization were dealt with utmost ferocity and precision. They were cornered on all side, and before even a single one of the Assassin can stand up and defended themselves, or even wanting to attack, they were shot down without ant ounce of mercy at all. The S.W.A.T team that they regarded as a common foot soldiers stood tall like a menacing wall that broke off their routes. And their guns acted like a reaper scythe that reaps deaths whenever it booms.“Master!..Senior Disciple!…Please!..Run....Thud!..”.(Junior Disciple Assassin)“NO!!!…”.(Senior Disciple John)One of the Junior disciple assassin were tried to cover the 2 pillar of leadership of the Spider Assassin, wanting to be seen as heroic, but instead his attempts were useless, as the second he stood before the bullet, he died all the same like any other assassin that were around him, the arrogant and obnoxious Senior disciple John that were
The ever so glorious and fearsome, The Spider Assassin Organization that were once fearlessly and pridefully act under the direct order of the Emperor of the Battle Star Empire himself, were treated as it they were a bunch of nobodies, by the combination of Aeternum Police force and the A.C.I.A. No one were ever able to see the end result of this showdown at all, aside from the Aeternum side themselves. Commissioner Layla from the Police Force and Sasu who represent the A.C.I.A were expecting the showdown would at least be something that were possibly hard for them to handle, and they might even have to call for backups from the more battle oriented department for help.But instead what had happened was the confrontation were very easy for the Aeternum side that none of them were even breaking a sweat at all, In fact, many of the police and the agents were even puzzled to the point that they think for themselves, that was it really necessary for the S.W.A.T operator to enter the scene
Inside the Auction House, at the VVIP Room belonged to the Aeternum Royal Family, the reaction to the end of the whole fiasco were rather greeted with mixed emotions, a part of it everyone in the room think that I was rather funny how it ended, then there is an aspect of worries as to why the incident were to happened and what is the assassin motives in all of this, and what is the bigger angle of the entire thing, is the Empire finally setting their sights on Aeternum. Because if the entire does started to avert their focus and started to divert their attention to Aeternum then some precautions needs to be taken.“That is rather surprisingly…boring…Alfred did these Assassin really are from those prolific organization?…”.(Elijah)Not just Elijah everyone were also thinking the same thing. After all the subjugation of the supposed renown assassin groups seems to be so easy.“They are the so called…The Spider…and as it said..they are quite prolific…and were controlled by the Battle Star
Today although the Auction Events were a momentous event to be celebrated, there were many aspect to this night that also need to be taken into account, especially about the The Spider assassin groups and the Empire sudden shifts. Everything were just to sudden for me to just assume anything that Empire might make a move, so I decided to put that information at the back of my thought at the moment. The event can be considered a success, the auction has netted Aeternum a lot of money, and the masses and the customers that were spending tonight were also very satisfied and happy. There are many thing that can be improved regarding the Auction events, above all, that although me and the others has taken precaution regarding trading the Tier 4 materials. It seems that we still not cautious enough.“It looks like, even though we were careful…it seems that a Tier 4 materials is still very sought after…to the point that many things could go wrong…”.“I agree…Sire President…We in Aeternum wer
All over Aeternum the fact that the first ever Aeternum very own auction event were held, were good news for everyone. Finally Aeternum has now also have their very own Auction house,that they can be proud of, these is what every single Aeternum citizen were thinking about. Although to be really frank, Aeternum never really needed one, as Aeternum were already far advance than many nation that were around it. But at the end of the day, people were just like these, they need to be included in many things and not get left behind, since many other nation have the Auction house of their own, now that Aeternum also has one, then they can all be rest assured that Aeternum were also moving forward as any other nation.But to those that were in an important position, the news about the Auction event being successful, is not something that peak their eyebrows, but what had happened during the Auction were made them all piqued their interest. The allied nation leaders, when the morning of the n
What Grand City Lord Meerkat Jackal said at the very last of his sentence were something that everyone around the table were thinking as well, It can be said that the Aeternum Alliance were still just budding fresh, but it was also undeniable that Aeternum strength is something that no one can take it lightly, especially when their initial assumption of Aeternum true prowess were proved last night by 2 major indication. One is the fact that Aeternum is now able to deal with a Tier 4 monsters and the other were the fact that their police, just their police, were able to defeat a top tier Assassin organization that has run menace all over the central continent, with much ease.No one knows what would happened next, but there will be just 2 outcome to the entire thing, whether everything would just simply passed like nothing ever happened in the first place. Or, simple war, The empire knows about what had happened and decided to retaliate to the full extent of their rage and power and st
The 2 of the man that were listening to Queen Zanesia story can’t helped but feel that they were enlightened and just listened to the most bizarre tale that they have ever heard. That Aeternum actually comes in and solved every single problem that a small nation had in just a single month, and turned the Kingdom of Zaredon from being at the brink of destruction and falling to a normal everyday nation that can function simply just like that , and on top of that kept their initial promise to Queens Zanesia, that they come fixed and leave once they were done.“So basically..you were saying that after you took over…and then the Alliance invitation comes…you accepted the alliance then went to asked the President himself for such help…and he said..’Okay’…then it all happened?..”.(Great Archmage Lodwig Godgrafen)“Yes….I was recently ascended to the throne…after my husband assassination…my uncle were aiming for my head….so the Alliance invitation were come to me like a life line and a method
Although nothing has been set in stone yet, the waves of concerned already spread all thanks to the last night incident. Some nation leaders were already come to their decision, whilst some joined the Aeternum citizens thought, just leave it to the President and the government to make a decision about this kind of stuff. The Aeternum Radio broadcast also did not report on last night incident at all, but rather get into more of the Aeternum Auction House and spread more of it’s fame, it was safe to say that the peace and the livelihood of common people in Aeternum and the outside still stayed the same as yesterday.Meanwhile at the Black House, the atmosphere were not so happy like the rest of Aeternum. Inside the President office, all of Aeternum Ministers were gathered inside of it along with their aide, even Governess Jelina were called to attendance. All the tension were coming from the Ministers, and the President on the other hand were as calm as always. Sitting behind his desk,
I took another sip of tea, letting the warmth spread through me.Because here’s the delicious irony: by copying our education system, they didn’t just adopt our books and schedules.They were adopting our mindset.Every child who learned using our curriculum. Every teacher trained by our methods. Every official who quoted Aeternum textbooks. They were all little seeds planted deep within foreign soil.In ten years?Those nations would think like us.In twenty?They would be like us. All without a single sword being drawn. I leaned back in my chair, utterly content.Without armies, without bloodshed, we were gaining soft political power over thirty-one nations.Real power.The kind that shaped futures. Mina clinked her cup lightly against mine in a silent toast, her green eyes sparkling.“To the future?” she teased.I smiled, lifting my cup.“To the future we’re writing,” I said.And out there, beneath the quiet, darkening sky, the seeds of a new world had already begun to bloom.The n
In New City, the public watched it all unfold on massive news screens and digital displays.A young woman in a coffee shop blinked back tears.“My mother couldn’t even sign her name,” she said. “Now, she’s going to school at sixty. Can you imagine?”A factory worker on break raised his can of iced tea. “They used to mock us for thinking machines would replace us. Now? My kid’s learning to design them.”Later that evening, President Mies stood at his office window in the Black House, overlooking a city glowing with lights and ambition.Minister Myers entered, holding the finalized signed charter.“It’s done,” he said quietly. “They all agreed. The future begins today.”Mies nodded. “We’ve unified their borders, their defense, and their markets,” he said. “Now, we unify their minds.”A long silence followed. Then, just a single line: “History will remember this moment.” And across the continent, it already had.The evening air was soft, almost languid, as I sat back in my chair, savorin
As the documents were sealed, cameras flashed and live broadcasts streamed the images of rulers shaking hands with President Mies—smiles genuine, eyes alight with purpose.The message to the world was unmistakable:Aeternum does not just lead with power—it leads with knowledge.Later, in a private conversation, Jonathan Myers turned to Mies.“This is more than we hoped.”Mies looked out the window of his office, where the UNA flags fluttered in a perfect row.“No,” he said. “This is exactly what I planned.”Jonathan raised a brow. “And what next?”Mies smiled faintly. “We teach the world… to think like us.”The central assembly hall of New Concordia UNA Headquarters—a gleaming white dome adorned with banners of thirty-one nations—had never been so full.Delegates filled every seat. National flags stood in perfect rows. The giant LED display behind the stage glowed with the symbol of the United Nation Alliance, now framed by a new banner in golden letters:"Education for All – A Future
Outside the palace gates, the citizens of Hallerus City buzzed with excitement. News traveled fast: another king had come, and he, too, had seen the truth.And far beyond the city walls, whispers began in other UNA courts:“Perhaps we should ask Queen Helen for assistance.”“Maybe Aeternum’s model isn’t just for them.”“Could we build this future too?”In the Black House of New City, when President Mies received the report of King Leopold’s visit, he simply closed the folder and smiled slightly."One seed sows a thousand trees," he murmured.And in the fields of Fantasma, the seeds of knowledge had already begun to sprout.The towering skyline of New City shimmered beneath a clear morning sky. It was a perfect day for diplomacy—and a historic one.Within the great glass-paneled east wing of the Black House, Aeternum’s political nerve center, a long oval table had been prepared. Security was tight, the air dignified, yet the atmosphere was distinctly welcoming. For today, President Mie
That evening, Queen Helen hosted a quiet reception for the UNA visitors. Modest food, strong Hallerian tea, and conversation flowed freely.“We’re not pretending it’s perfect,” Helen told them. “But we’re not pretending it’s impossible, either.”One observer raised a hand, smiling. “Would you be open to helping other nations start similar programs?”Helen looked to Merrica, then back to them.“Of course,” she said. “We’ve taken help. It would be wrong not to offer it.”It was the kind of answer that made diplomats take notes. And so, Hallerus—once a fractured kingdom cast in shadow—began to shine in a new light. Not as a symbol of power. But as a model of transformation. And as the scholars walked the streets of Hallerus City, alongside teachers and curious children, they quietly realized: The future wasn’t just being forged in Aeternum anymore. It was spreading.The scent of blooming gardenias filled the royal courtyard of Hallerus Royal Palace. The sun hung high above the battlement
“It’s… beautiful,” she said.Jonathan smiled. “It’s sure is,.”The first major step was the immediate conversion of six major city libraries into public education centers. Then came the pilot schools—one for each major region of the kingdom. Each staffed with a blend of local teachers (newly trained) and educational experts from Aeternum who came to oversee implementation.Within a month, Hallerus Elementary Schools opened their doors for the first time. Children from farming villages and mining towns, who had never once held a book of their own, were now reading stories about space, science, and society. They learned arithmetic on digital chalkboards and watched recorded lectures from Aeternum instructors. Classrooms were modest, but organized. Desks were salvaged, but steady.The change was jarring. But it was real. Queen Helen visited one of these pilot schools in the outskirts of Archenport. There, she saw barefoot children reciting alphabet lines. She watched a young girl raise h
Outside in the streets of New City, a mural was already being painted on the wall of a youth center—depicting two children, one Aeternian and one Hallerian, sitting together at a shared desk beneath the words:"Wisdom Unites What War Divides."The mural was uncommission—but no one was taking it down. From within the homes, classrooms, and council chambers of Aeternum, the message was clear: the world was learning, and they were learning from Aeternum.And that made the people walk taller.Because every road rebuilt in Hallerus, every classroom opened, every young mind taught in their system—was a quiet victory for Aeternum’s vision. The age of empires was ending. The age of influence had begun.The great hall of Hallerus Royal Palace hadn’t hosted a summit like this in over a generation. Not for war. Not for taxation. But for education.Long tables stretched beneath arched stone windows, newly adorned with fresh flags representing each province of the Hallerus Kingdom. The air smelled
Contracts were awarded to the newly established Hallerus Road Commission, overseen by both local talent and advisory engineers from Aeternum. Bright orange marker flags began appearing all over the kingdom, outlining future road paths. Caravans brought in equipment, gravel, construction tools—and, notably, several transport trucks from Aeternum carrying the first batch of reinforced roadstone, a durable blend sourced from the Stone Ring mountains.Helen personally visited the first construction site just outside the capital—a winding, broken stretch leading to a key trade town in the east.She knelt beside the workers, running her fingers through the packed dirt and gravel. “This path,” she said to a nearby foreman, “will be the spine of our kingdom.”He blinked, surprised at her presence, then bowed. “Then we’ll make sure it’s strong, Your Majesty.”As roadwork began, the kingdom watched. Villages previously isolated by floods or rough terrain saw the first signs of inclusion. Mercha
The project would take time—perhaps years—but its impact would begin in weeks.“Once the roads are in place,” Merrica said, entering her chamber with a report in hand, “we’ll be able to move goods faster, respond to crises quicker, and prepare for the second phase: economic zone development.”Helen took the report with a tired, but satisfied smile. “This… this they will see. This they will believe.”“And when they do,” Merrica said, “they’ll follow.”Late that night, as the wind howled against the palace windows, Helen stood in her private study, gazing out at the flickering torches lining the city streets. In her hand was a smooth, curved stone from the first road pile—just a plain stone, but to her, it was the beginning of a foundation.Her fingers closed around it as she whispered to herself, “Let this road lead us to a better kingdom.” And with that, the first steps into a new Hallerus had begun.The throne room had seen war plans, council betrayals, and royal declarations. But on
