“They can take one more day..just to be sure…at this point, we can afford more time…since we only got one more target to destroy…”.At this point of our campaign everyone can afford to take their time to make sure everything is in order and completed before we move on with something else. After all the enemy were already dancing in the palm of my hand, and they will only be waiting for my execution on them, that is their fates, they can’t do nothing but wait for me to come and end that battle of theirs and also their lives.“...By the way, Marisko…do you like movies?..”.“Hmm?…that is a rather peculiar question, sir…..hmmm…personally I like them…it was entertaining…and also quite a strong propaganda method…if we were able to make our own movie, we can put everything that we want in it….after all, the entertainment industry in this era..are so backwards…that if a movie were released to the masses…the people would just become so addicted to it…”.(Special Agent Marisko)Actually, movies
“Able to come to such deductions…you are really capable, Marisko….you know, I haven’t talk to anyone about this….but I think…it was about time we released our own movies…”.“Releasing our own movies?..”.(Special Agent Marisko)“Yes…with our own productions…with our own method and drive….naturally with a sprinkle of our very own ‘creativity’…”.Using an air quotes, I put an emphasis on the word creativity, for Marisko, I know that she would get what I meant by Creativity in a single take.“by putting our own twist and turns…..heh, that would surely makes the world crazy…heck….with the movies…we can even make Aeternum to become a sort of utopia……maybe we can even make a movie where our military be the most righteous army in the entire world….hohoho…. I kinda excited to see such things happening…”.Seeing her snickering and lips formed a rather devious smile, she were looking like a villain right now, even Selie were slowly taking a step back away from here. Marisko felt into her own ima
“Nevertheless…I think it was time that we brought an entertainment storm to this world…and I want you to be the icon that do it….can you do this?..”.“At this point…..I don’t think that there is nothing that I can say to deny this…..Sure, Sir…I’ll do it….”.(Special Agent Marisko)“Great….just a heads up….this new job…will bring you a lot of attentions….fame, and popularity….you will be standing before the public eyes…and perhaps even received an admiration from many of them….simply said…you might even lose your peaceful life for this path…”.“.…I think I can handle it…..you know, that I won’t lose my bearing for stuff like this…all that I do…I do it for our nation and for you, Sir….no matter how hectic things might be….I am confident..that I can turn it all just for the benefits for our nation…”.(Special Agent Marisko)“I am glad that you were accepting this new duty…..so…for your first duty..as Aeternum very own first Entertainment Producer….You will become the President of Aeternum
Meanwhile, in Central Alemia, the Capital City, the tension of the civil war were getting heighten and became much more brutal, The Crown Prince side were eager to enter the city at all cost, after all they had to march inside the city and head straight to the palace to conquer it. As for Queen Romella, her priority were to defend her city walls, and make sure that her son and his army did not makes it through, so that she can continue to stay on power. Naturally with the intensity and the frequency of the skirmish between the 2 are getting more and more often and harsh. Now both sides, can already be said, they have exhausted their manpower, but still neither side wanted to compromise or give up. Why, because now they know that Aeternum are on their heels.“Your Highness Crown Prince, you know that we cannot simply stop here….we need to have some sort of offering for Aeternum..if we want to survive..”.(Baron Louise)“an offering?…AN OFFERING?!!…how dare you muttered such things befo
Inside the crown prince faction command tent, as always the Crown Prince were still deep in his delusion, the adjutant, military leaders, commanders and the nobles in this faction, all of them were secretly blaming this man. Everyone thought that they can humor this man for a little bit and uses him as a tool later on, but no one ever thought that the Aeternum attacks, and everyone in this room has lost their land and territory while all of them stuck here. To make the matters even worse, all of them now had to rely on him, to survive, all of them had nothing anymore, they are all standing here empty, no land, no family and definitely no power, all that they have were their name and that was about it.They need this buffoon of a prince to win, in order to gain something, but right now the situation has become worse, Aeternum had them surrounded and yet, this buffoon think that the Aeternum isn’t a threat, and treat them like the Aeternum would bowed to him when he become a King, which
“Louise….have you received the words from, His Highness President yet?..”.(Count Dracul)“I do….in a few days time….he is coming here…General Eliza and Grand General Bina is coming as well…..and our old friend..Duke Oliver are coming from the west..”.(Baron Louise)The baron secretly whispered as the 2 men walked side by side, heading to their own tent.“Great news….I can’t wait to just see that brat got hanged….I can’t believe he wasted all the people lives as he wants….him becoming a King?….if he does….Alemia will be doom from the first day….His Highness President should have this land….”.(Count Dracul)“That;s right, Count….Aeternum is the only one that can bring order and peace to this land of ours….by the way…Duke Windstorm finally kicked the bucket….”.(Baron Louise)“Suits him well….my wife delivered the news to me….Frozen Peak City has been flipped upside down….I’m glad that I am still loyal to Aeternum…General Eliza let us keep out land and estate…”.(Count Dracul)“Mine as wel
Unbeknownst to many inside the Crown Prince Amariss camps, the 2 are playing the fire that stokes that Prince angers and ego’s. Baron Louise played the trustworthy and reasonable advisor that would always instilled the prince with the sense of anger by reminding him of all the logical parts and then fuel the prince anger and ensuring that the prince would just burst out with fury, and made himself looks foolish. But for the rest of the people in the camps see’s Baron Louise as a wise advisor that just poorly got disregards by the egoistic prince. As for Count Dracul, he played the role of a loyal soldier, sided with the prince ridiculous demand in a zealous manner, no matter what, he was the first to head into battle with the soldiers, claiming that he would fight in the stead of his prince and defend his glory. Whilst in reality all that he do, is just throwing the soldiers into a meat grinder again and again. Count Dracul alone, has brought 1/3 of the Crown Prince total soldiers int
“We are sitting ducks here!!….you…what are you all use to me..if you can’t even kill that bastards of mine!!….he’s a kid!… a kid for god sake!….why is this taking so long?!!..”.(Queen Romella)“Your highness….this war…is not that simple…we are right now holding a massive advantage…each day and each battle…we are slowly whittling their army….if we go out there…we will in a deep trouble…we will lose all the defensive advantage that we have….”.(Prime Minister Wilfrid Strong)“What, Lord Prime Minister said, is correct, Your Highness…we are now in a battle of attrition's….and we are winning, your majesty..Just give us a bit more time…soon enough, Prince Amariss would lose all their fighting capability…and when that time comes….I will personally…bring his head to you…your majesty..”.(General of the Royal Guard, Lucas Perdue)Thanks to the 2 experience aide of the Queen worked hard to calm the Queen anger and fury, the court were calm once again. This sort of discussion, the anger and calmi
The city of Gust, the capital of the Western Region, radiated an aura of peace and prosperity that seemed almost otherworldly to those who had known nothing but strife. The towering walls stood strong yet inviting, adorned with the Aeternum insignia—a symbol that had come to mean safety and order to the Alemia people.As they passed through the gates, the refugees were greeted by sights and sounds that filled their hearts with hope. Cobblestone streets bustled with activity, but not the chaotic kind they had fled from. This was the lively hum of a thriving community: merchants hawking their wares, children laughing as they played, and townsfolk chatting amicably by fountains that sparkled in the midday sun.An elderly man, his face lined with the hardships of life in the war-torn northern regions, clutched his walking stick tightly as he stopped to take it all in.“Is this... really Alemia?”he asked, his voice trembling with disbelief. His daughter, holding her infant child close to
Unlike the other regions, where battles and skirmishes carved paths to liberation, the Western Region of Alemia had never known the chaos of war during this conflict. This serene anomaly could be attributed to the Gust Ducal Family, led by its dignified patriarch, Duke Oliver Gust.From the very beginning of Alemia’s Civil War, Duke Oliver Gust had pledged his allegiance to Aeternum, a decision that would forever shape the fate of the Western Region. The Duke, a good statesman and a visionary leader, recognized early on the transformative potential of Aeternum governance. By aligning his house with Aeternum and swearing loyalty to its President, he not only secured the safety of his lands but also elevated his status to the Governor of Alemia.Under his leadership, the Western Region flourished. It became a shining example of what could be achieved under Aeternum’s rule—an oasis of peace, stability, and prosperity in a nation otherwise marred by war.The Western Alemia Region stood as
“The President’s arrival always signals a shift in momentum. Whatever he has planned, it will undoubtedly be decisive.”. (Colonel Giuseppe De Gianna)Eliza leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees.“I don’t know about you, Giuseppe, but I’m itching to get started. The Central Region won’t know what hit them.”. (General Eliza)Giuseppe laughed lightly.“I wouldn’t expect anything less from you, General. Your energy is infectious. Though I must admit, I share your enthusiasm. The Eternal Night Division is ready to stand by your side, as always.”. (Colonel Giuseppe De Gianna)Eliza’s cheerful expression softened slightly, revealing a glimpse of her focused resolve.“Then let’s make sure everything is in place. When the President gives the word, I want the Northern Front to move like a storm.”. (General Eliza)While the Northern Front basked in the unchallenged dominance of the Aeternum Royal Air Force, the Southern Front was marked by grueling ground and naval warfare. Yet, under
The Northern Region of Alemia had become a bastion of order and stability under Aeternum’s relentless advance. Every step taken by the Aeternum forces under General Eliza’s leadership left a lasting mark—one of liberation and peace.Villages that once cowered under the shadow of constant raids now thrived. Markets reopened, children played in the streets, and trade routes flourished. The Aeternum forces didn’t just sweep through the land; they rebuilt it. Engineers, medics, and diplomats followed close behind the military, ensuring that each liberated territory was integrated seamlessly into the growing Aeternum domain.Enemy resistance, while sporadic, was met with calculated force. Eliza’s forces didn’t simply eliminate the threat; they dismantled the very foundations of the enemy’s control. Supply lines were cut, strongholds reduced to rubble, and leadership decapitated with precision strikes.It was no wonder that whispers of Aeternum’s inevitability began to spread. To the Alemia
The heavy doors of Georgina Castle closed behind me as I ascended to the upper floors, the weight of the day finally settling in. The castle’s architecture, a blend of medieval grandeur and modern Aeternum design, offered a commanding view of Georgina City. I stepped onto the balcony, the cool night air brushing against my face, and gazed out over the bustling city.“(Georgina has changed. Not long ago, these streets were plagued with crime and fear. Now, even at this hour, the lights shine brightly, and the sound of laughter echoes through the air.)”The city was alive. Markets remained open, their lanterns casting warm glows over vendors and customers alike. Groups of travelers from the surrounding regions roamed the streets, marveling at the safety and vibrancy that had become synonymous with Georgina.As I observed the scene, I reflected on the strategic importance of Georgina City. It wasn’t just another victory; it was a key to the eastern region of Alemia.“(Larger than New Sun
“Welcome back Your Highness…,”. (Major Fontana)Fontana said, his voice filled with respect. Lieutenant Colonel Selie stood tall beside him, her crisp uniform and confident demeanor a reflection of her discipline and efficiency. As my second in command, she had always been dependable, but it was her initiative and sharp mind that made her invaluable.“Selie,”.I said with a nod.“I trust everything has been handled in my absence?”.She stepped forward, falling into step beside me as we made our way to Georgina Castle.“Your Highness, I ensured that the troops stayed active during the lull. With the soldiers under my command, we eradicated every criminal faction and enemy cell within the city and its outskirts.”. (Lt. Colonel Selie)Selie’s report was precise, but her words carried a quiet pride.“The city is now completely secure. Trade routes are open, and the citizens are thriving. Georgina City isn’t just holding steady—it’s flourishing. Your troops are the reason for that.”. (Lt.
“I heard you were in your office,”. (Elijah)she began, her voice like a soft melody.“I thought you were supposed to be on the frontline.”. (Elijah)I rose to greet her, taking her hand in mine.“I decided to tackle the backlog first…You know, since I am here now… The frontline will wait—it’s moving at a deliberate pace anyway.”Her lips curved into a small smile, but her eyes lingered on me with concern.“You’ve been working yourself too hard. You didn’t even let anyone know you were coming back.”. (Elijah)Before I could reply, she gestured, and moments later, the kitchen staff entered, carrying trays laden with a sumptuous lunch.“I took the liberty of arranging this,”. (Elijah)she said, her tone light yet commanding.“You’ll eat properly today.”. (Elijah)I chuckled, guiding her to the table by the window.“You always know how to manage me, don’t you?”As we sat down to eat, the conversation shifted to lighter matters. Elijah’s grace and elegance made every interaction with her
“The Riverside Region will do just that. The fisheries will create jobs, stimulate local economies, and foster innovation in aquaculture. This isn’t just a project—it’s a movement toward a better future.”. (Andrea)As the meeting concluded, Andrea and the ministers were jubilant. Plans were already being set in motion to announce the news to the public, and excitement rippled through the Ministry.For me, the moment was bittersweet.“(Every step forward is a reminder of the distance yet to be traveled. But if the people can find joy in these small victories, then perhaps we’re on the right path.)”Sitting at the grand desk in the Ministry of Resource headquarters, I allowed myself a brief moment of satisfaction. Approving their proposals had been straightforward, but the significance of these decisions would ripple across Aeternum for years to come.“(This is what true leadership is about—empowering others to excel while maintaining control of the vision.)”I had barely spent an hour
You’re certain this will work? Turning a war-torn region into a hub for fish farming isn’t exactly a small task…. sure, we already managed to owned them and stabilized them but you still have to build most of the basic infrastructure from the ground up…”.Andrea nodded confidently.“I can and I will. The river’s resources are abundant, and with our technology, we can create sustainable systems. This isn’t just about feeding our people—it’s about dominating the market.”. (Andrea)I let her words sink in, my mind already racing with possibilities.“(In a world like this, where fresh fish is a luxury reserved for the wealthy, we’ve managed to break that barrier. Our ships, equipped with refrigeration, have turned an impossible dream into a thriving industry. And now, freshwater fish could be the next frontier.)”“The inland nations will clamor for this,”I said, my tone thoughtful.“We’ve already proven our capability with saltwater seafood. Freshwater fish would solidify our position as
