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
“Heh!…what a babbling fool she is….she doesn’t know…that once this war was over…she and her buffoon of a child…will die together….ahhahahaha…”.(Prime Minister Wilfrid Strong)Like a true villain he sat on the throne, laughing out loud, with that everyone else too started to smirked and smiles, the Queen were not the leader here, but the Prime Minister is. Everyone agreed to put him on that position as all of them had already make out a deal with the Prime Minister, so them supporting the Prime Minister and nominated him as the soon to be king of Alemia, do provide them all many benefits, it’s a win-win situation for all of them.“Viscount Johnathan….how are our friend in Aeternum faring these days…have they contacted you yet?..”.(Prime Minister Wilfrid Strong)“They did….and for them…they said that it matters little to them if there is a change of house on the throne…as long as the battle ended…it was already good enough for them..my son in law said…this battle…is just a waste of time
Viscount Johnathan, a silvered haired man, dressed neatly in a suits, for everyone in the room, all of them looked at him with envy and also hope, as he was the only noble here, that actually have a direct connection with Aeternum leadership, He had married his daughter to an Aeternum Nobiilty that had connection with Aeternum Military. Since then, inside the Queen camps, he is the one trusted mediator between Prime Minister Wilfrid and the Aeterum Military.“I see….that’s typical of them….they only wanted Alemia River area to be secured…as long as we kept the Southern and Eastern region calm…President Mies won’t be angry anymore…..”.(Prime Minister Wilfrid Strong)Unlike the Mother and Son, Prime Minister Wilfrid knows the danger of Aeternum can pose to Alemia Nation, he knew that Aeternum had already conquered all 4 region, all because the President were attacked on the Alemia River. Aeternum is very dangerous to provoke, and this fact already being proven, Prime Minister Wikfrid b
“My lord….or rather…My King…..”.(Viscount Johnathan)“Hohoho~…Viscount Johnathan…that new title from you…sound marvelous…”.(Prime Minister Wilfrid Strong)“Holding a banquet to welcome the Aeternum…will surely grants you a massive positive response by the Aeternum…even more prestige…when you have truly claim the crown and with those 2 is out of the scene…”.(Viscount Johnathan)“Of course..Of course…I should do that…Hohoho~”.(Prime Minister Wilfrid Strong)What an egoistic man, with just a little bit of push and the right kind of encouragements, the Prime Minister that were already ambitious would just continue to open up for exploitation by the other, just stoke his egos and all that is restraining will come lose, with this, the battle of 2 side has secretly become the 3 sides.And all that Aeternum had to do is just wait, wait for them to battle among themselves, wasting all their soldiers and resource. And when the moment comes, everything would topple with just a simple push. Visco
Inside the Presidential Office, I sat at my desk, reviewing a final document with Vice President Elijah and Minister of Culture, Evelyn Rhemis."Are we all in agreement?" I asked, setting the paper down.Elijah smirked, arms crossed. "Absolutely. A national holiday to celebrate our multicultural unity? It’s about time."Evelyn nodded in excitement. "This is more than just a celebration, Mr. President. This solidifies Aeternum’s identity as a nation of the future—a place where people, regardless of origin, can thrive under a common dream."The new holiday, aptly named "Unity Day," would be an annual celebration where all citizens, native-born and immigrant alike, could come together in festivals, concerts, and cultural showcases.It would be a reminder to everyone—past, present, and future—that Aeternum’s greatest strength was not just its technology, but its people.I smiled. "Then let’s make it official."The day of the first Unity Day festival had arrived, and the New City Central S
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
