Whole trip was both successful and enjoyable at the same time, later that night we leave Sweden and fly back home. Not only I managed to get my armory stock up, I also got 4 small lorries with me (each one took 1 storage ring to store them since the lorry was was 1 ton each). Just for this trip I already got 20 rings full to the brim, Dimensional storage rings was a fortune for me, though it brought out a lot of questions for Terry, until now he can't figured out how all the stuff suddenly disappeared.
As soon as the money was wired to my newly made Swiss account, immediately I paid out all my loans (Student loans, House mortgage and bank loans) and just like that I finally become a free man myself, also I got my own Black Credit Card now, quite an accomplishment for myself I must say.

Today I've decided to electrified/modernized my Keep before doing anything else. For that purpose the whole keep was busy from early in the morning, Thankfully we got many extra hands ready to be used. The slaves from The Hive already arrive and settle down, though there are only females, they still can do the job.Looking at the slaves, they have become more lively than any of the slave I saw back in the market, according to Elijah report apparently they were more than happy to serve for us. The treatment they got here make them feel like, they were a commoner rather than slaves, no harassment, well-fed. Elijah said that for a slave they definitely living a better life than any commoner in most of the country.Anyway, for this project I assign all the maidens to be the leaders for every unit of slaves, this is for the maidens to train their leadership skills and to establish their power and privileges that a Maidens can possess. I started the project by turnin
After 8 weeks of non-stop works, Finally, we completed the whole construction project. The ugly and half-destroyed wall was now standing firm and solid With 3.5 Meter high and 4 meters thick off solid concrete and rebar, it was also altered and widen so that it covers the area of the 200-meter radius with the Keep as the center, The gate was made from a 1 meter thick of solid wood and steel fittings then completed with modern electronic locks and automated closing and opening mechanism made it very secured and easy to operates, this probably the first of its kind in this world. On top of the wall, there's a 3-meter wide walkway made it easier to perform patrol, every 10 meters a bright LED light was installed to illuminate the walls and its surrounding, Every 100 meters, patrol stations were placed with a platform installed especially for a high caliber gun and a spotlight, suffice to say with these modifications we can spot anyone as far as 300 meters, that alone made it quite hard
"RUN!!.I SAID RUN!!..YOU IMBECILE!!.."."YES SIR!!!".(Maidens)It's already months 9 since I arrive to this world, after finishing all the foundations for my Newly build country, which by the way as of now sailing smoothly with no issues. Thanks to that, I am now comfortable enough to move forward to my new goals, which is Spreading fame and opening business in new area. But before that, I need a trained professional workforce a skillful business employee and professional soldier."CLIMB THAT WALL CADET!!!..CLIMB IT!!!.."."Hic..SIR! YES SIR!!..".(C2 cadet)This scene was quite normal in the training, a 20 years old C2 cadet struggling to climb the 4 meter walls that was part of my training course. Due to lack of Maidens, I can only take 14 person to become the backbone of my newly form armed forces (Minus Elijah and 5 Original team leader, as they were in positions t
[I agreed that some kind of entertainment was crucial to the general public….but do you really have to sing and said that the song was yours?…]. (T.A.S)"Well I do though…on earth yes, It was someone else song, but in Fantasma it's mine since I'm the one who perform it first…entertainment was a multi billion industry you know…".The graduation ceremony is already end. So as the finale I sang a few ballad song while playing a piano, of course it was a hit, after that moment I realized that I'm not only a genius but also a remarkable singer.

After a week of collecting information's of the bandits, I recall the Intelligence team back to I.S.O.A. and after reviewing the intel, I surprise that they actually did a very good job, I guess letting them watch the Bourne movies and the spy documentary was right after all.Right now all the Department of Defense were pack into the Main Hall at my Keep ground floor. I was also here listening to I.S.O.A very first military briefing, Bina was on the front carefully stating the information's regarding our operations."Our Target was number 15 on the list, Widely known as Wide storm band..made up of approximately of 30 crew..Their Leader was this man Mongadee Lopus, 43 years old, a deserter from Alemia Kingdom 2nd Knight platoon, extremely cruel and savage..Their M.O was raiding nearby village and capture the citizen there to be sold in slavery..they usually operates near the border of Alemia Kingdom an Our I.S.O.A…...Intelligence team
The day was slowly getting dark as the sun setting on the horizon. Deep hidden in the Rock Valley near the river bank, was Wide Storm bandit hideout. The Hideout was an abandoned dragon cave, after their leader Mongadee Lopus establish the band they have made this mid size cave their home for 7 years. Over the time they gain prospers, from just empty cave they amass fortune and altered the surrounding to their at advantage, making them more hidden and strong from any attacks.The cave entrance was fitted with steel bar and thick wooden gate, makeshift walls from wood surround the cave perimeter, guards tower with lookouts, from afar this place look impenetrable. As darkness finally covers the sky, the bandits start going around lighting the torch, Richie was one of the bandits that lighting up the torch on top of the wall, he start from the left end and slowly making his way to the middle where the gate was, a posted guards currently yawning while chugging a bot
As simple as we go in, that's how easy we got out. The whole assault and subjugations only took 1 hour to finish, with only 20 soldier's we managed to take down the bandit band with a size of 150 men. General Bina was able to rescue 80 female slaves amongst the 80, 60 was badly wounded ( critical but not life-threatening), 20 of them were severely malnourished. Major Colleen squads have striped the whole base bare, amassing a fortune of 100 000 gold coins, 300 000 silver, and 50 000 bronze coins, 1500 magical instrument (Armour, weapons, and accessories). 2 tons worth of gold and silver products (Trinkets, utensils, etc.), 10 platinum worth of various valuables and stocks (Foods materials, alcohol products, Skill tomes, Books, monsters material and monster cores).We also managed to detained and disabled 15 of the high bounty bandits member alive, this includes Wide storm bandits leader Mongadee Lopus who's bounty stood at 10 platinum coins. Since we don't have secure mag
General Hospital, Independent State of Aeternum.After the 1st operation of Justice launch, The department of defense returns triumphantly with success. But another thing that came along with the victory was 2 blue goblins that Mr.President brought along, who he claimed was not a monster but a sentient race, the discovery shocked I.S.O.A since then both of the goblins have been treated inside General Hospital Intensive Treatment Centre Unit, guarded 24-7 by guards."Ughhhhhh…..Ah!…BROTHER!!". (Bob)2 days after they have been rescued(?) Bob who's gravely injured finally regained his consciousness, as for Bar who isn't in bad conditions as Bob, already awake after a few hours being treated inside the hospital."BOB!!….

At 6:45 AM, the order was given. Admiral Duchess Kolarova, commanding the Navy Fleet from the southern front, initiated the launch sequence. The missile streaked across the sky like a comet, its white trail a harbinger of devastation.From the Dragon One, I stood on the bridge, watching intently as the missile’s trajectory was displayed on the holographic screens. My officers around me held their breath, anticipation thick in the air.A few moments later, the missile hit its mark. The explosion that followed was nothing short of spectacular. The Alemia Capital City gates were obliterated, along with the surrounding walls and everything within a 100-meter radius. Dust and debris rose into the sky like a dark mushroom cloud, blotting out the early morning sun.The impact was beyond what any of us had anticipated. The "lowest-grade" missile had proven to be anything but low-grade.The news of the missile strike spread like wildfire through the Aeternum ranks. Soldiers, commanders, and of
BOOM!The object slammed into the city gates, unleashing a deafening explosion that shook the ground beneath their feet. The shockwave rippled outward, sending soldiers sprawling and shattering windows across the city. Dust and debris filled the air as the once-mighty gates crumbled into a smoking ruin.Amariss stumbled backward, his sword clattering to the ground as he stared in horror at the devastation.“What… what is this? What is happening?!”he stammered, his voice trembling with fear. In the distance, the Aeternum Navy Fleet stood poised, their warships bristling with firepower. The single missile had been a warning—a demonstration of Aeternum’s overwhelming strength and precision. And it had achieved its purpose.The soldiers of Amariss’s army, already demoralized and terrified, broke ranks almost immediately. Dropping their weapons and abandoning their positions, they fled in every direction, their panic spreading like wildfire.“Come back! COME BACK, YOU COWARDS!”Amariss sc
“The reports… the soldiers… they are abandoning their posts. Even the Prime Minister has—”“I know,”she interrupted, her voice calm but laced with resignation.“Let them go. They were never loyal to me to begin with.”Her Royal Knight Commander, Lucas Perdue, entered moments later, his face grim.“Your Majesty, the palace remains secure for now, but the city is unraveling. The people are heeding Aeternum’s call, not ours. And the army… they’ve lost the will to fight.”The Queen closed her eyes, taking a deep breath.“Lucas, prepare for the inevitable. Lock down the palace. Imprison those who remain loyal to the Prime Minister and the other schemers. And… prepare for my surrender to Aeternum.”Lucas hesitated, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword.“Are you certain, Your Majesty? To surrender is to admit—”“To admit that we’ve failed,”she finished for him.“Yes. Because we have failed. And the longer we cling to this throne, the more my people suffer….it is of no point to figh
Back at the frontlines, as soldiers readied themselves for the final march, they were moved by the reports circulating from command. The evidence of Alemia’s corruption and the suffering of its people only solidified their resolve. Around campfires and inside armored vehicles, soldiers shared their thoughts openly.One young soldier spoke with determination:“It’s not just about winning the war. We’re here to do something right—to fix what’s broken.”Another nodded, clenching her rifle tightly.“The President and the Vice President have never hidden anything from us. They’ve told us why we’re fighting, and that’s why I’d follow them anywhere.”Even the most hardened veterans were touched by the weight of their mission. One grizzled commander, looking out at the stars, muttered to himself,“We’re not just soldiers. We’re builders of a better future.”As the evening turned to night, a quiet anticipation spread across Aeternum and the liberated regions of Alemia. Farmers working their fi
“[To the citizens of Aeternum, know this: our soldiers, our leaders, and our government are united in our cause. We fight not for conquest, but for liberation. We fight to bring light to a land that has known darkness for far too long. And we fight because we believe in a better future for all.]”As she reached the conclusion of her address, Elijah’s voice softened slightly, carrying a note of hope.“[Let us move forward together—with courage, with resolve, and with the knowledge that we are on the side of justice. Aeternum stands as a beacon of hope, and together, we will bring peace to Alemia Nation. Thank you, and may we all stay safe in the hours ahead.]”The response to Elijah’s address was immediate and palpable. Across Aeternum, workers paused their tasks, families huddled around radios, and soldiers standing in the encampments felt a renewed sense of purpose.In one bustling Aeternum farm, a group of farmers stood together, their hands still muddy from the fields, listening in
“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
