As the situation in both Riverside and Pearl City Prison had been sufficiently handled and on it’s way to be dealt with carefully for any further same situation. The same progress also happened at the Western Region of Alemia Nation, namely, the Gust Family territory, of which by now are already had become apart of Aeternum governance. But unlike the other 2 region of where the structure and also the administration had to be done from the ground up. Here in the region that had already embraced the Aeternum Government, everything had fallen to become much more simpler, The Gust Territory has already have a functional Military and also a Governor, hence the process were much more easier.“So, you were saying that we will be implementing these trial and judgement system for the Prisoners of war here?…and these motion has been approved by the President and the Cabinet just now?..”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)“Yes, Sir Governor…it was an implementation that were taken by the President hims
“…hey guys, what’s happening here?..what are you guys were talking about?..”.(General Lucas)Whilst the 2 were sitting inside the Governor office in the Gust City administration office, General Lucas who is in charged of the Aeternum military operation here, come inside the office with a wide smile on his face. Governor Duke Oliver and General Lucas has become a good friends ever since they know each others and for them such sudden appearance and coming into each other office without a warning has been a rather normal situation, that no one can stopped it.“Nothing much…just talking about the new approach from the President that come in just now…”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)“Oh…about that prison stuff?..”.(General Lucas)The conversation between the 2 of them surely not at all looked like a 2 high government official talking about something major but rather like a 2 close friend bantering with one and another. Casually, Lucas pour himself with a liquor from the Govern
When General Lucas said this, saying that the president seems to frown upon his recent decision. Governor Duke Oliver, were a bit taken aback and slightly worried, as a lot of people knows that such occasion were very rare and usually such situations do have a significant stories behind."Why is that so, Lucas?".(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)"Well...he hated treated people like that...in fact all this time he had been fighting, and making a lot of effort to free and helped people all the time....and now... he had to decide and come to this...".(General Lucas)"I see...well, that is kinda disheartening to hear..".(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)Before their conversation were full of positivity, but now a gloomy topic has been touched. It is kinda bummed the mood inside the room a little bit, no one wanted to dismissed the mood upfront, as they all know, it was a bit insensitive to do so. And naturally as the one that bringing up the downcast mood, General Lucas were also the one that lifted
“Well…he not entirely against it…he just disliked the idea of it…so he tried to avoid it if possible..but if he can’t then he would be just fine with it…..”.(Major Cohen)Unlike the 2 of them, who can be considered just recently get to know the President in person and served under him faithfully for just now a brief amount of them, naturally they do not dared at all to talked in regards of his liking at all. But for General Lucas, he can just blabbered on his own, after all compared to many he is considered in the first generation of leaders that is close to the President and he deserved the credit to even be friendly to the President and no one can even say a single thing about it.“Anyway…I think in a few days….the war is going to be intensifies…I just got off call with the Grand General before I come here….and according to her….soon enough…the Central Region of Alemia Nation will be stormed by our attacks….so above all…we need to get ready and prepared for everything…”.(General Luc
“Well….Oliver….Grand General, the President and the Cabinet has approved the plan of attack for the Central Region…..and…their plans….were to bomb the entire place…”.(General Lucas)“Wait…they were going to Bomb the enemies?…wow…that is certainly a fearsome tactics to use…”.(Major Cohen)“Bomb?…what is that?…”.(Governor Duke Oliver)So far not many in Aeternum knows about the terms ‘Bomb’ in the military sense. As until now, there were only a few people that knows about Aeternum military capability, even in the Aeternum itself, Governor Duke Oliver naturally were still clueless about it as he didn’t know about it, and the only reason as to why Major Cohen knows about it, it is because he is a military judge who happened to be, apart of the highest position in the Aeternum Military.“Well…it meant that, the Crown Prince and Queen Romella…now have a very low chance to stay alive after the attacks begin…in fact, perhaps….the entire enemy army might just burn into ashes…Like I said before
“That is right, You Know….even for me, I have yet seen the truth with my own eyes….but I have read the reports about the Bombing actions…what it is capable of and what it can do….and let’s just say, Governor…..when that happened…it will surely changed everything…”.(Major Cohen)“I see…that is quite a shocker..”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)“It is mostly great for us….but for the enemy….not so much….all that I can describe is….it kinda looks like…you just hit destroys on everything you hated…you see…The Navy used these a lot…one of their favourite thing to use is..Missile….and that thing can kill up to Tier 6 Sea Monsters like it was nothing…heck, when the explosion happened…it just vanished everything that are around it…and that was on the sea…so…imagine that..”.(General Lucas)“Wow..that is just scary…then, if we were to just use these..then it would be a game changer…”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)The atmosphere inside the room, silent a little bit, as General Lucas just told Duke Oli
“It is…on the terms of power and strength…when that missile hit…well, we might as well become the strongest nation on the land….perhaps…even the Battle Star empire would be wary of us….”.(General Lucas)“No, Lucas….if this goes how you said it would supposed to go….those at the empire would be scared of us and certainly back away from us in a hurry….these I guaranteed you…”(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)“Oh, I believe you…You see, ever since our name has been spread all over the place…those Empire guys…has started to moved against us…”.(General Lucas)“Really?..”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)Now this is a piece of news that not many knows about, even some in the Cabinet can even barely heard about this, after all, this is a state secret, but not that top of a secret that no one were allowed to talk about it. Lucas naturally knew about it, and sharing it with Duke Oliver Gust and Major Cohen, as they were a member of upper echelon of Aeternum government, so these secret is something that t
“I heard that the A.C.I.A were handling them…”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)“Yep….and those guys really handling them..playing them like a fiddle….they just poked at us a little bit…and the A.C.I.A just wiped their entire existence from inside of our nation all the way to all of our Allies nation…that sure will teach them a lesson…”.(General Lucas)“Wow….the A.C.I.A really are not messing around…they sure uphold to their reputation…”.(Major Cohen)“They always did…Honestly…all of our Military Intelligence Agent, received the A.C.I.A agents training…that just how good they are….heck…it would not be an exaggeration to say that…A.C.I.A might just be the best Intelligence Agency in the world…that guys can find out about anything if you asked them…”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)To that words from Duke Oliver, Lucas just smiled and chuckled, as that statement were true. It is a common knowledge, that the A.C.I.A were a very capable government agency, but not many truly knows their true capaci
“This is why I serve Aeternum,”he said.“Our government doesn’t hide anything from us. The President shows us the truth—the corruption, the suffering, everything. We’re not here for conquest. We’re here to fix what’s broken.”A sergeant nearby nodded.“And the Crown Prince? He deserves everything that’s coming to him. My wife is from Alemia, and she told me stories of what that man has done—taxing people into starvation while throwing lavish parties. It’s disgusting.”Another soldier, a former immigrant from Alemia, added,“It’s not just him. The entire royal family let this happen. But the fact that the President is willing to spare Queen Romella and preserve a part of Alemia’s heritage? That shows we’re not here to destroy—we’re here to rebuild.”Even the officers echoed similar sentiments. In the command tent, a group of captains discussed the decision over steaming mugs of coffee.“This is why we’re different,” one of them said.“Other nations would have razed Alemia to the groun
“What do you want to do, Your Excellency? Should we accept her surrender?”I exhaled slowly, feeling the weight of the decision before me.“We’ll accept it,”I said finally.“But under our terms. She will relinquish everything, including her dignity as a monarch. She’ll serve as an example of what happens when leaders fail their people. Let her live—but only just enough to remind everyone of the cost of her failures.”Elijah’s tone softened, a hint of respect in her voice.“Understood. I’ll finalize the arrangements and have her surrender publicly acknowledged at the right time. This war is finally nearing its end.”I sat back in my chair, my gaze drifting to the reports strewn across my desk. The Alemia Nation, a land plagued by incompetence and corruption, was finally crumbling. Its remnants would soon be swept away by the strength and unity of Aeternum. In the background, the low hum of Dragon One’s engines served as a steady reminder of the impending victory. The final steps were
“It’s over,”she announced, her voice echoing through the chamber.“The Alemia Royalty Faction has fallen—quietly, and without resistance.”The officers in the war room erupted into a flurry of activity, relaying the monumental news across Aeternum’s military network. But amidst the chaos, there was an undercurrent of somber resolve.“This is why Aeternum must lead,”one officer murmured to his colleague.“Their so-called queen waited until the very end to take responsibility—and only when her back was against the wall.”Another officer nodded.“At least she’s surrendering. But the damage is done. Her people have suffered for far too long. It’s time we clean up this mess.”Elijah listened to their hushed conversations; her expression unreadable. Though her demeanor was calm and composed, a storm of thoughts churned within her mind. She knew that this surrender, while significant, was only the beginning. The real work—rebuilding Alemia and bringing it under Aeternum’s banner—was yet to
In the heart of New City, the nerve center of Aeternum’s military operations—The Black House War Room—was abuzz with activity. Communication officers called out coordinates, screens lit up with battlefield updates, and every second was accounted for as the final stages of the Alemia campaign unfolded. Vice President Elijah, seated on the imposing Command Throne, presided over it all with her usual steely composure.But then, a phone rang—a call not routed through the usual secure military channels. The sudden interruption brought the entire room to a halt. All eyes turned to Elijah as she picked up the receiver.“This is Vice President Elijah,”she announced firmly.A familiar but timid voice greeted her.“Vice President Elijah… this is Queen Romella of Alemia.”The room fell into complete silence. Every officer present held their breath, straining to catch any hint of what was being said. The weight of the unexpected call hung heavily in the air.Elijah’s voice turned ice-cold, her t
Meanwhile, in the Aeternum camp, soldiers discussed the situation in hushed but animated tones. The transparency of the president’s leadership and the reports of the Alemia government’s incompetence had ignited a fiery determination among them.“Did you hear the latest report?”one soldier asked, leaning over his meal tray.“The queen herself admitted to being a puppet for the nobles. Can you believe that?”Another soldier scoffed.“It’s disgusting. They let their people starve and suffer while they live in luxury. No wonder Aeternum had to step in.”A younger recruit, still fresh to the army, spoke up hesitantly.“Do you think we’re really doing the right thing? Taking over an entire nation?”The veteran sitting next to him clapped him on the shoulder.“Kid, we’re not just taking over. We’re fixing what they broke. Look around you—this isn’t a war for power. It’s a war for justice.”The recruit nodded slowly, his doubts fading.“I just… I’ve never seen a leader like the president bef
“You know what I appreciate most about this war?”he asked, his voice thoughtful.“It’s the transparency. The president told us everything—why we’re here, what we’re fighting for. I’ve never served in an army like this before.”The others nodded in agreement.“That’s because there isn’t another army like this,”a veteran said proudly.“We’re not just fighting for a paycheck or some king’s ego. We’re fighting for something real—for justice, for the people who’ve been suffering under their rule.”The soldiers’ confidence was unshakable. They knew they were on the right side of history, and the enemy’s disarray only reinforced their belief in the righteousness of their cause. As the sun began to set, the Aeternum Army remained motionless, their lines unbroken, their discipline unwavering. On the horizon, the camps of Crown Prince Amariss and Queen Romella descended further into chaos, their once-proud armies teetering on the brink of collapse. Inside the Dragon One, I stood at the observ
On the Aeternum side, the mood couldn’t have been more different. The soldiers, aware of the psychological impact their stillness was having on the enemy, were brimming with confidence.“This is genius,”Private Luthar said, his voice filled with admiration.“The President doesn’t even need to lift a finger, and they’re already falling apart.”Sergeant Maia, a veteran soldier, nodded.“That’s why I serve him. He doesn’t just fight wars—he wins them before they even start.”Another soldier chuckled.“Can you imagine what they must be thinking right now? All those nobles and commanders, shaking in their boots, wondering when we’re going to strike. It’s beautiful.”The soldiers also appreciated the transparency I had shown by sharing the compiled evidence of Alemia’s crimes. For many, it reinforced their faith in Aeternum’s leadership and the righteousness of their cause.“I’ve served in armies before,”Corporal Darius said,“But never in one where the leader actually tells you why you’r
In the higher echelons of command, the reactions were just as impassioned. Grand General Bina and General Lucas, in particular, were vocal about their disgust."This is beyond negligence,"Bina said during a video conference."It’s a betrayal of everything a government is supposed to stand for. These people aren’t leaders—they’re parasites."Lucas, ever the fiery lion demi-human, growled in agreement."They’ve lost the right to govern. We’re not just here to fight a war—we’re here to restore dignity to this land. And by the time we’re done, Alemia will be a shining example of what Aeternum can achieve."Even General Eliza, known for her bubbly personality, was unusually serious."I’ve always thought of war as a necessary evil,"she said."But this? This is justice. And I can’t wait to see the look on those nobles’ faces when they realize their time is up."By the time the army resumed its march, every soldier was fully motivated, their spirits higher than ever. The Aeternum Army wasn’
"This is why we step up,"I said quietly, almost to myself but loud enough for everyone to hear."Because no one else will.""Aeternum leads,"Selie said, her voice steady."And we don’t falter,"Captain Lionel added. The room was silent once more, but this time it wasn’t somber. It was charged with purpose.As the clock ticked closer to the final battle, the Aeternum Army continued its march, undeterred and unwavering. On all fronts—north, south, east, and west—the troops advanced with a singular purpose: to bring justice, order, and prosperity to Alemia.For the first time in a long time, Alemia’s people would have something to believe in—a government that didn’t just promise change but delivered it.And as the Dragon One flew high above the battlefield, its presence a symbol of Aeternum’s strength and resolve, everyone knew that this was more than just a war. This was a turning point—a moment that would define not just Alemia’s future but the very essence of what Aeternum stood for
