To make everyone understand my reason to hasten the phase of war, I presented to them the reports that came onto my desk, everyday, all the video and photo evidence that the A.C.I.A agents inside the remaining 3 region has sent to me. The same reports can be obtained elsewhere in New City, but this one come to me first, since this is the time of war, and the flow of information in regards to everything that is going on inside the scope of war, come through me first.“.…..Dear lord….if this were left continued….then nothing will remains….”.(Vice President Elijah)“All the surface mines has already being mine to the point of depleted…Wow…they even harvest everything….the entire region of farm were barren…”.(Governor Countess Jelina)On the slide show that were shown on the projector screen, there were various images, and all of it showed a dire situation inside the 3 region. It is not the devastation of war, as everyone that is already an image that everyone were already used to. But th
“Oh For God Sake!…those greedy bastard nobles were at it again!…..”.(Governor Duke Oliver Gust)Duke Oliver were furious to the point he slammed his hand, full force downwards on my long table, the sound of his angry fist coming down echoed through the entire chamber. Luckily, Elijah were there to protect the table with her magic, if she wasn’t my long table would be shattered instantly.“They were using the war as an excuse to just plundered everything….typical of them to do such things…at this harsh time they opted to exploit everything for their own benefits….let me guess….is there a sign of any of these nobles, tried to escape?..”.(Minister Bina)“There is some of them already packing their belongings…trying to runaway with their ill gains…at this point, they were more like robbers..”.To this, I presented them with another evidence both written and also a video evidence of the current situation. Showing that a lot of noble that started to act like bandits were actually not
“My Navy are ready at any time…made the order..and we shall rain the enemy with fire and death..”.(Admiral Duchess Kolarova Qoon)With Bina agreeing, naturally the entire military factions already have their decision set. Colonel Xing and Admiral Duchess Kolarova naturally nodded their heads in sync, as they are looking forward to the end of this war.“I agreed…after all, since the enemy has collected everything…I don’t want those riches left our palm…I rather use what they collected to rebuilt the region…rather that we use our funds…beside…we need the remaining resource for ourselves….I don’t want to manage a loss….My Ministry can’t handle that…”.(Minister Andrea)Although she sounded callous, at the end of the day, she was correct. We started this war in hoping that the cost will be recoup by the raw resource we obtained in Alemia, but if the resource were no longer there, then we might just have an economic problem later on. Of which, is definitely not an ideal situation at all, we
“Alright….then I motion for Aeternum, under my command…from this moment forward, that we will mobilized our troops to fight the enemy and ultimately regain control of the entire Alemia Nation and subjected this nation under my rule….Any Objection on this motion?…”.“No, Your Highness!!…”.(Everyone)A resolute support as everyone in the room obeyed my decree. Although it might sounded overbearing at the moment, I need to make sure that I said this as this will go into the records of history, such decision cannot be made casually.“Good, at the moment, I have the Special Force Unit 01, under my command…to conduct a search and rescue operation to save all the Apprentices survivor that are scattered in all the 3 regions….so far, the completion of the mission is around 30%…..and thus as soon as the mission were completed……Aeternum Military will be fully mobilized…..I want everyone to be prepared..from our men….to the press coverage, to the management!…be ready…..as this time…when we move…w
“...Elijah, I assumed that this 4 is your elected temporary observer?…”.“Yes, Sir….me and the cabinet has chosen these 4 to hold the position of Temporary Observer…they are carefully selected, with taking in account of their talent, capability, loyalty and also their merits….I can fully assure you that…these 4 can surely live up to you expectation….”.(Vice President Elijah)“Is that so?…if Elijah had said so about you all…then I will never have any doubt about it at all…Ah…Miss Renee Coral…I have high expectation seeing you here…and surely you live up to my expectation, I see..”.“Naturally, Your Highness…I only live to serve…this humble officer is delighted to meet his highness expectation, sir…”.(Miss Renee Coral)The only one that I know were Renee Coral, after all she is the one that I secretly pushed forward for this position, and looking at her right now, I have made a great choice to put her on the lead. In truth, Renee Coral by all means have the right to rule over the Sunder
Now that one of the candidates had already gotten her assignment, it was time for me to turn to the 3 other candidates left. Naturally, just like Miss Renee Coral the 3, were no slouch either. All 4 of the candidates are as diverse as it can get, in both race and gender 2 women and 2 male. What is even better is all of them were young of age, meaning that they can stay in this position longer and accumulate experience as vast as they can. It was one of the criteria that I explicitly listed for Elijah to follow. In this world usually, those that were above 40 years of age, can stand at a high position, but for me, I do it the other way around.Young people with talent and loyalty should be lifted up to be in their correct and supposed position. I have thrown away all the convoluted ways of medieval society that were expected of this world and put my way of thinking in Aeternum culture. Naturally, such moves do have a lot of people complaining about it, but not a single person dared to
“I, Neavys Briarfel…will honorably accept this duty and will serve with my utmost dedication and ability to serve as a Temporary Observer of the Southern Region of Alemia….May glory be eternal…”.(Miss Neavys Briarfel)Done with her oath, Neavys Briarfel stood up and walked to my left, joining the line with Miss Renee Coral, now I focused on the 2 men before me. One is short and the other is quite tall, possibly even a head taller than me.“Mister Halgar….another fine talent born from our university…I believe you served in the Army before this..correct?..”.“Yes, Sir!…First Lieutenant Halgar of the Aeternum Royal Army, Sir!….”.(Mister Halgar)Halgar is a dwarf, and unlike the other 2 before that have their last name, Halgar doesn’t. he was a born slave until he was saved by Aeternum, his life journey was amazing, born as a slave, trained as a battle slave, saved by Aeternum, and joined the Aeternum Army rose through the ranks and at the same time pursued study to the highest degree and
“I am pleased to see your kind step forward on this occasion, Throltys…”.“We are bound to do so, Your Highness~…we live to serve you and your cause as it was willed to us by the Great Ancient Dragon…beside..if we don’t step up…you would probably never call us, Your Highness…”.(Throltys)“You and Your people have suffered enough….being called and hunted as monsters for years…I thought to let you guys enjoy life a little bit…”.In terms of history as an entire race, Dragonnewt and Lizardman were perhaps the most tragic races in Aeternum. They, for as long as they lived have never been acknowledged as a race, but rather being treated like monsters, but as always that life changed when they came to Aeternum, and finally, they can live as peacefully and as comfortably as they like.“We know and appreciate your kindness, Your Highness…but…we have decided to also contribute to Aeternum cause….as Aeternum citizens, and as your direct vassal….it is within our duty to do so…hence, I beg you…do
The refugees of the Battle Star Empire were determined to prove themselves.The Aeternum government had granted them legal residency, but full citizenship required them to live lawfully, work hard, and integrate into society. It wasn’t a difficult requirement—the people wanted to stay, to belong, and they were more than willing to do whatever it took.Crime among the former refugees was almost nonexistent. They respected the law because they had never known justice before.Education was another priority. Schools and learning centers had been set up specifically for immigrants, teaching them not only about Aeternum’s history and culture but also modern skills—reading, writing, mathematics, and even vocational training.Mira had already enrolled in evening classes, determined to further her education.Her dream?To open her own tailoring business one day.Back in the Empire, she had been forced to sew uniforms for soldiers under brutal conditions, her work never appreciated, never compe
This was Aeternum’s first fully televised football match, being broadcast internationally to allied nations like Dukedom of Angela, Kingdom of Zaredon, and Kingdom of Eloesa.Even rival nations, like Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation, watched the match with a mix of jealousy and curiosity.For them, this was completely new.A sport played in a massive stadium. A crowd of thousands cheering in unison. Leaders sitting among their people, showing unity and camaraderie."Is this… what Aeternum entertainment looks like?""No wonder their people love them…"Aeternum was changing the world, one goal at a time.The match continued, New City United pressing forward, desperately trying to equalize. And then—Thirty minutes in—goal! New City United equalized with a powerful shot from outside the box.Forty-second minute—goal! Another attack from New City, and they took the lead.President Mies stood up and cheered loudly with the crowd."Looks like the President is having a great t
At first, even with professional teams and structured matches, the stadiums weren’t full. People didn’t understand why they should care. But then… he first matches were broadcasted on television. And suddenly, everything changed.For the first time, people saw their own cities competing. New City United vs. Shark Bay FC. Ironridge Titans vs. Silverport Eagles. Blazing Tundra vs. Redwood Strikers.It wasn’t just football anymore—these were their cities, their teams, their pride. And when fans saw their teams winning, they felt the rush of victory. When they saw their teams losing, they felt the bitterness of defeat.The spark had been ignited. Soon enough… Supporters’ clubs started popping up. Fans flooded stadiums on weekends. People debated tactics in bars, cafes, and workplaces. Children started dreaming of becoming professional players.Saturdays and Sundays were now known as Football Days, where everyone tuned in to watch their favorite teams battle for supremacy.The AFL wasn’t j
“Learn the Craft of Visual Storytelling! Enroll in the Aeternum Film Academy Today!”Students from all over Aeternum flocked to sign up. Aspiring actors hoping to be the next big star. Writers eager to bring their stories to life. Technicians fascinated by the magic of film.Even our allied nations sent students, eager to learn about this new frontier of entertainment. The future of the film industry had been secured.“If there are no theaters, there’s no audience.”Right now, Aeternum was the only nation with cinemas. But the true money wouldn’t come from just our own population—it would come from exporting movies and cinema technology to our allied nations.And so, we struck a deal. Each allied nation would provide land and funding for the construction of cinemas. Aeternum would bring in the technology, train workers, and provide the films.The profits would be split—40% for Aeternum, 60% for the host nation. This trade cooperation would not only strengthen alliances but also ensur
“Coming Soon: Aeternum’s First Movie – Directed by the President Himself!”The public reaction was beyond anything I had imagined. People were talking about it in markets, cafes, and even at work.“Did you hear? The President himself is acting in this film!”“I don’t even know what a movie is, but if the President made it, I have to see it!”“They say it’s like a play, but the characters are on a magical screen. How does that even work?”The excitement was contagious. Even foreign merchants and diplomats in Aeternum were intrigued—they, too, wanted to witness this mysterious new form of entertainment.Shooting the movie was not easy. Unlike Earth, Aeternum had no experienced film industry professionals. Camera operators had to be trained from scratch.Actors had to learn how to deliver lines naturally instead of exaggerated stage acting. Lighting and set design had to be invented entirely from the ground up.One of my biggest struggles?Teaching the actors to not look directly at the
On screen, ANBC reporters walked the streets, interviewed important figures, and even showed battlefield footage of Aeternum’s military exercises. The people were shocked, their jaws dropping as they saw moving images of places they had never been."It’s like I’m standing there with them!" A shopkeeper had exclaimed in an interview, reacting to seeing footage of Angela’s train network expansion.But news wasn’t the only thing that took the world by storm.I had taken it upon myself to recreate classic entertainment from Earth, bringing a whole new level of culture to Aeternum.Dramas and Soap Operas – Noble romance, political intrigue, thrilling battles, and dramatic betrayals captivated viewers. Families gathered around the television, watching scripted stories unfold before their eyes for the first time.Short Films & Movies – Storytelling evolved overnight. Actors and playwrights who once worked in theaters had now found a new home in television. The birth of Aeternum’s film indust
“For the first time ever, we bring to you, the Dukedom of Angela—as seen through the lens of Aeternum television!” Quara announced proudly.The footage zoomed in to Angela City, its sprawling medieval-style castles and townships standing in stark contrast to Aeternum’s modern metropolis. The streets of Angela were bustling, the markets filled with traders, and most importantly, the brand-new train station was shown in full glory—with an Aeternum-built high-speed train pulling in.Loud cheers erupted from across the nation.“I never thought I’d be able to see another country without having to travel!” a young boy marveled, watching from his family’s living room.Back in the Angela Grand Plaza, where a giant public viewing screen had been set up, Angela’s own citizens were watching themselves on the Aeternum News.A young Angela nobleman paled, tugging at his collar. “Is this how they see us? We look so… so old-fashioned compared to them!”His companion, a wealthy merchant, nodded. “The
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-
