Ever since the broadcasted trial of Baron Sunders aired today afternoon, all over Fantasma, especially the Central Continent, and it’s people were relatively in a very good and uplifted mood, it was the first time that many people can see and knows that an evil man and a noble were being punished properly, so that was a refreshing moment for many, and even the people that aren’t Aeternum, or those that were miles away from Aeternum were celebrating the occasions, because, all thanks to the radio broadcast, and the news updated, people felt entertained, informed and also loving the development of the Aeternum and Alemia Nation war. Far more than what is going on in their own country. Practically at the moment, Aeternum is going viral all over the place.In Aeternum on the other hand, the happiness that their main villains has been defeated is all the more cause for celebrations. So many were still ridding on that current good mood for the rest of the day, nearly all the restaurant, bar
With a monotone voice came through the radio speaker, in an instant, all the noise in the Bar, stopped, Suchong also then, turned the volume up. As by now, everyone knows, that no matter what, they had to listened to this part right here as it was very important to do so. After about 5 second of continuous beep sound, finally the audio on the radio when back to normal.“[Good Evening, My citizens, People of Aeternum…I am President Kaiser Mies Sai, and today…I am here before all of you…to addressed to everyone….That…Today at Afternoon time….The Criminals, who had dared attacked our nation, fleets and murdered 300 of our fellow countrymen…in the Eastern Alemia River incident….Alemia Nation Nobles, Baron Sunders and the Sunders Family….Has been Judged, and Sentenced to Death, as I have promised to you all, My people….Aeternum Justice has Prevailed…]”.(President Mies/Radio)Suchong, Young Jackson as well as all the patron inside the Army bar, were listening intently to every single words
Everyone had their focus glued on the radio Broadcast, as the President addressed the entire nation. For every single Aeternum this is their duty, naturally as, even thought they were not a soldier, as a citizen they should also contribute to the nation efforts, and they are proud to do so, as it was already in their nature. Inside of Suchong owned Bar, every patron got their interest pique, as they know learned that, in 3 days the Eastern Border will be opened permanently. Eastern Border, or more known as the Aeternum-Alemia Nation border, is one of the most busy and dangerous border area in Aeternum, and it is no thanks to Alemia Nation itself. With their own conflict and neglect that they do to themselves, not just the Border Area were affected, but so does the towns and village in Aeternum that were close to the Border area were affected as well.So the decision from the President to opened the Border at the moment, this is also meant that, Aeternum military and enforcement, would
“[ Hence, with the opening of the Eastern Border, Aeternum government…also decided to invite, all the Adventurer’s and Mercenary…to registered and take upon various open contract to work on behalf of the Aeternum Military….Dungeons, Monsters and Criminals were littered all over this place….and I as the Leader of Aeternum government and Military…knows for a fact, that this Cleaning operation in the Eastern Border region…is a complicated and a long process….and it would be a fool, to not welcome all the help that we can get…..also, let this be a chance for the private Defense sector, to come and experience how it is to work together, side by side, with Aeternum Military…..together we will changed this world…]”.(President Mies/Radio)“See?….I told you so….”.(Silverfang)Silverfang smiled as he looked at Suchong, Compared to Suchong the Bar owner, Silverfang is someone that believed and think that despite retiring as a soldier, he still can contribute to Aeternum prosperity, and for a War
In Aeternum, I know that my speech right now were something that everyone knows and paid attention to the most at the moment, after all, a Presidential Address is something that all Aeternum Citizens loved to see and listened to. As by their own words, Aeternum Royals were likable than any other royalty, mostly because we are not some stupid proud bunch, and more approachable to the people. I never punished or harm anyone who does not deserved it and at the same time I also followed the rules that I made up, so everyone in Aeternum can respect that. Nevertheless, my speech is something that needed to be said, after all, I had to mentioned to many that we need their helps on culling the monsters population here.In fact, Aeternum military need some breaks every now and then. War is tiring to many, for the physical aspect and the mental aspect, even more when the enemy were basically not on your level at all, and it looks and felt like you were bullying them or just outright playing a T
After I done with my Presidential Addressed last night, we went back to the Mansion and get our very much deserving rest. Not to complain but, to me, speaking like that were much more of a hassle than me just going to war, but then again, I supposed time for me this time is very much different, that is what happened when one got a higher ranks these days. And today, as the day started I came back to my routine in my office, signing documents and making plans as I always does, Still today will be the day, that many of the Eastern Region of Alemia people going to registered themselves as an Aeternum citizens, and for them naturally it was a Category 2, Citizenship, after all they were not fully Aeternum natives, and they should be satisfied with that, giving them a chance were already good enough than just nothing.“Knock!..Knock!..Knock!….Master, it’s me, Eliza and Bina is also here…”.(Air Force General Eliza)“Come in!…”.Usually early at this time of morning, both of them would not b
At the moment, Sunders City has officially became the Eastern Alemia Region where Aeternum governance on Alemia Nation would start, and thanks to all the services that would be opened here in just another day. Peoples knows that they had to come to the city to use the said services. Still, the people reaction to a new government, even if the new government were better than the previous ones, individuals still can find it hard to convert to another. But it seems that for such things I don’t really have to worry at all, it is because everyone were actually more than enthusiast to become an Aeternum and my presidential addressed has made that impact even more apparent.“Now, That is a lot of people….”.(Holgun Iron Horn)“...it sure is….Probably everyone in the eastern region were here today…”.Currently at the moment, after my last night meeting with Bina and Eliza, my day start off quite great and also mundane as well, as I dive right in on to my own personal work. But then at 9 in the
Today is a good day for Rose Village young maiden, Anita. Anita is just a young lady that lived inside of Rose village, inheriting the house and a small patch of the land farm that comes from her late mother and father, she is an orphan now, and her fate were not at all unique in this village. In fact, all of the Rose Village inhabitants were all have lost their family members and loved one, thanks to their previous lord, Baron Sunders aggressive war force recruitment and also the new and still ongoing civil war. Many has lost their beloved in this war and struggle, and as a result a village that is once stand at thousands of population were reduced to just 200 people, and the one that left were just mostly Woman, old folks and babies, and all of them were struggling to live their lives, each day.Many including Anita herself, were already given up living as the situation getting more and more dire by the days. With the lord kept taking people on his whim to replenished his force, on
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
