I know that Hallerus Kingdom at the moment, is kinda shaky and just in mess, but for them to bravely attack Dukedom of Angela, who’s has been stable for decades and already been confirmed that they are strong enough to deter any sort of attacks. I am sure that the one that were doing such things got nothing going on in their brain.“Well they tried to raid a few of my settlements at the border….but, luckily our Allied Military exercise force were stationed there and worked there….so they failed miserably…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“What a relief...I bet they tried to get some easy money out of you…and instead got owned themselves…”.“Basically that is what happened….the moment their army crosses the border..before they even got to a single village…our forces intercept them…and attacked…we managed to kill some of the leader…but that is about it….since then…we have been in a state of dragged out crisis…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)With the State of dragged out crisis, what she meant is that s
“I am not going to say anything….as thanks to their foolishness our forces were able to gain a lot of real combat experience….but try not to dragged it for far too long…lest the Young Queen snapped…. then there will be a whole another issues coming at us…”.“I know….that is why all the ‘exercise’ I tasked were done in a covert style….while they know that it was me retaliating, but none of them can pin me as the culprit as they lacked evidence for it…..and beside, I doubt that these culprit wanted to report or asked help from the Young Queen…after all….these people just went rouge and also they actually went off and denounce her before they went off on their stupid streak.”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“Once we left….I can’t believe just how many of their stupidity got out of the bag….then again…that is what happened when only the unworthy got put on the rise…”.“The Principality of Light screwed them over so good…that nothing they were doing were going to work….Even my Cousin gave up to do
The Ducal Family of Murr actually have some relation with the Duchess of Angela family, Duke Merrica were related to Queen Duchess Angela as a cousins, by several leaps of so, but both family were in a good relationships as both of them hold quite high ranks and nobility status.“Yes he do….he already went back to his territory along with his wife….all he left in the Hallerus Capital were his Knights….I wonder what happened with him and the Queen…he refused to say anything to me at all…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“I guess he got tired of it all….after all, the Young Queen were hardheaded and she even surrounded herself with some shady aide as well…”.Simply said, Hallerus Kingdom at the moment are slowly deteriorating, rotting from the inside out, to the point Duke Merrica who is the strongest anchor of the Kingdom actually got fed up and decided to step away from the Capital and the Palace, that is just how bad things are for the Hallerus Kingdom. Meanwhile Dukedom of Angela and Aeternu
“Anyway…if things just kept heading this way…they are bound to destroy themselves….so for now…I decided to just leave them to their own devices….as for you…what you do to them is up to you….just don’t escalate it too much….lest they snapped back at you…”.“I know…now that you say that you wont be bothered with them…naturally I wont bothered them to much….but that doesn’t mean I can’t played around with them…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)All I can say is to advised her a little bit, and nothing more. Beside knowing her opportunistic side, I am sure that she is planning to do her ‘practice’ inside of those Hallerus Noble territory that bothers her, and she will maximize her profits as high as possible. Also by saying I won’t be meddling in Hallerus Kingdom affairs for now, is giving Dukedom of Angela an assurance that not in anytime soon, I will not be starting another war, unless I finished this one, so there is no need for her to worry about for anything, and thus this make our meeting flo
Under the cheer from the crowds around the Airport, at the Tarmac, everyone were just waving and looking up at the slowly departed Presidential Airship. At the same time, Both female leaders were whispering under their breath, masked with their beautiful smile.“I guess you don’t want to tell him about Duke Merrica at all, huh?…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“...At this time…I don’t have to…Duke Merrica has soured our favour when he took his Queen side, that time…..so I let him stew for a while……beside…you also don’t tell him that you almost wiped the entire Western Hallerus Region in your recent ‘Practice’…right?..”.(Elijah)“Well….let’s just agree…that sometimes over telling things…might just over complicated some stuffs….right?..”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“My thought exactly…”.(Elijah)There were a lot of things that were happening around Aeternum that were kept under a tight wrap, a secret that only certain people knows, and sometimes it was even kept out of loop to the President, and nat
“Even so…are you still going to hold him off that long?…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“I will….That man..sometimes a bit to nice….and that is his traits that people often takes advantage off….but many didn’t know…that his kindness have a limit….and when that limit is touched….he will burned down everything he saw….from then he will turned into something that no one would like….and what I am doing is making sure that, that limit isn’t touched at all….”.(Elijah)“Kind, huh…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)For the medieval people era, the way the Aeternum President act and operates do seems out of place and rather odd. He is seen as a kind ruler in fact too kind is some places, granting mercy where he doesn’t need to, only act when acted upon, despite hold a massive power decided to not declared a warring state and just conquered those that were around him. In fact establishing an alliance with the surrounding small nation and uplifting them, is just ridiculous gesture and attempts. It just out of th
For the medieval people era, the way the Aeternum President act and operates do seems out of place and rather odd. He is seen as a kind ruler in fact too kind is some places, granting mercy where he doesn’t need to, only act when acted upon, despite hold a massive power decided to not declared a warring state and just conquered those that were around him. In fact establishing an alliance with the surrounding small nation and uplifting them, is just ridiculous gesture and attempts. It just out of the ordinary to do so, yet he does it, so it was understandable as to why everyone called him an oddball behind his back and said that he was overly kind. But not many knows that what he is doing is working flawlessly and what many has overlooked is that, when every he raised arms against those that wrongs him, his enemies will always lose, no matter what they throw at him, nothing will stop his steps at all.“That’s right….I have seen him got angry before….and as a result of it…he formed a na
“he is not a cryptic person that said things in innuendos…as long as you don’t burned the region to pieces then it is fine…truthfully…I have talked with him…and our vision regarding the Hallerus Kingdom….is that we don’t really care much……but if possible….we wanted the Hallerus Kingdom to remain…as there were a lot of benefits for it to remained existed for all of us….”.“Sure, if Hallerus Kingdom remains..then we have a buffer zone against the Empire right?…”.(Queen Duchess Angela)“Correct…aren’t that just a fine and easy work for all of us…..beside for a lot of things that they have done to go against us….this is the very least redemption arc that they should at least show it to us…..lest they wanted to be called ungrateful…correct?…”.(Elijah)As she were sipping her cup of coffee, Elijah stated this plainly, with a mocking tone, clearly stated her view and disgruntled at the current Hallerus Kingdom.“A buffer zone…that we didn’t have to worry about and care….a zone that works it
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
“This railway is not merely a connection between nations,” Queen Angela declared, “but a symbol of progress. A bridge between past traditions and the bright future we shall build together.”President Mies added, “With this project, Angela will no longer be isolated or vulnerable. It will be a thriving hub of innovation and prosperity.”The people roared with approval, commoners eager for job opportunities, and nobles eager for increased wealth.Meanwhile, across the border, envoys from Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation secretly observed the Angela-Aeternum railway collaboration.One Hallerus official slammed his fist onto his desk upon receiving the report. “They’re building a rail network that connects Aeternum to the Forbidden Wasteland?! If this continues, Angela will become untouchable!”A Golden Triangle merchant sneered. “Tch. Those fools in Angela have completely sold themselves to Aeternum. But we can do nothing. Our king already declared hostilities. We are lock
While Angela embraced its partnership with Aeternum, its rival nations were watching with envy and resentment.The Kingdom of Hallerus and the Golden Triangle Nation, both historical adversaries of Aeternum, knew they had missed their chance to secure such a lucrative alliance.In the Hallerus Royal Palace, King Hadrian scowled as he studied a detailed report on the Aeternum-Angela railway project.“They are modernizing too quickly,” he muttered. “Soon, Angela will be just as powerful as Aeternum.”His advisors nodded grimly, but they knew there was nothing they could do.Meanwhile, in the Golden Triangle Nation, Emperor Verix tapped his fingers on his throne, deep in thought.“Aeternum is changing the continent,” he murmured. “And we are falling behind.”With Angela fully embracing progress, Aeternum’s expansion showed no signs of stopping. The railway was more than just steel and tracks—it was the path to a new era. A nation modernizing at unprecedented speed. A people eager to grow
The Dukedom of Angela was no longer just a small kingdom caught between larger powers—it was now on its way to becoming a global trade hub.To further solidify their partnership, Aeternum opened job opportunities for Angela’s citizens. Engineering apprenticeships were offered to young scholars eager to learn Aeternum’s technology. Labor positions in railway maintenance, track laying, and station operations provided work for thousands.Even hospitality and tourism sectors saw a boom, with people preparing for the influx of travelers who would soon visit their cities. Aeternum made one thing clear—this railway wasn’t just for Aeternum’s benefit, but for Angela’s prosperity as well.However, not everyone was happy about this monumental project.The Kingdom of Hallerus and the Golden Triangle Nation, both long-time rivals of Aeternum, watched the cooperation between Aeternum and Angela with growing jealousy and frustration.For years, both nations had sought to expand their influence in t
“Aeternum plans to construct the longest and most advanced railway system in the continent,” Mies explained, unfolding a detailed map of Central Continent on the table.“We wish to connect New City to the Forbidden Wasteland, and we have chosen the Dukedom of Angela as the interconnection point.”Queen Angela studied the map carefully. “So, Angela would serve as the bridge between Aeternum’s mainland and its Wasteland territories?”“Yes,” Minister Andrea confirmed. “We will be using Mana-powered maglev technology, capable of traveling at speeds unheard of in this world.”Princess Angela’s eyes widened. “You mean to tell me… you’re planning to build a train that runs on magic and technology?”Mies smirked. “That’s exactly what we’re doing.”“This will be the first of its kind,” Vice President Elijah added. “And it will set the foundation for global transportation.”The Dukedom of Angela would become the gateway between two of the most significant territories in the world—Aeternum’s mai
For centuries, The Institute of Artemesia had been one of the world’s most respected academic and magical research institutions. But they had always struggled with one thing—funding and access to knowledge.Aeternum had solved both problems. Inside the Grand Royal Library of Aeternum, Head Scholar Callisto Verdan stood in awe.She ran her hands over the massive tomes of knowledge, collected from all over the world and carefully preserved in Aeternum’s archives.Rare magical research, ancient history, modern technological advancements—it was all here.“Aeternum’s funding has allowed us to expand our studies beyond imagination,” she murmured, her voice trembling with excitement.“With access to this library, we are no longer bound by the limitations of our past.”Beside her, Professor Aldrich—one of Artemesia’s leading scholars—nodded.“The rest of the world still clings to outdated traditions,” he said. “But here? Here we can create the future.”Aeternum had become the center of knowle
