News of Aeternum’s Army had spread like wildfire, but even the swiftest whispers across the land had not prepared the people for this. Just hours after hearing that the army was mobilizing, Black Eagle Town found itself under the shadow of Aeternum’s infamous Iron Birds.“Impossible!”Johny Eagle exclaimed, his voice filled with awe as he gazed at the helicopters hovering above.“How can they already be here?”The patrons of his underground tavern murmured in agreement; their eyes wide as they watched the scene unfold from the streets.“It’s them,”Melinda said with certainty.“No one else has those flying machines. It’s the Aeternum Army.”All around them, the townsfolk shared similar sentiments. The speed at which Aeternum moved was nothing short of miraculous to the common people. To those who had lived under tyranny and chaos, it felt like divine intervention. While the nobles and lords continued their desperate attempts to flee the town, their carriages grinding to a halt as the
Children ran through the streets, mimicking the sound of helicopters with their arms outstretched like blades. Mothers wept tears of joy, holding their children close. Fathers stood tall, their hearts swelling with hope for the first time in years.Within minutes, Black Eagle Town was under complete control of the Aeternum Army. The streets were silent, save for the disciplined movements of the soldiers securing their positions. The nobles and lords, now trapped within the town, huddled together in their carriages, their faces pale and their dreams of escape shattered.From his carriage, Baron Mikhail peeked out at the soldiers surrounding the gates. His voice quivered as he muttered,“It’s over... We can’t escape.”The arrival of Aeternum’s Iron Birds and their soldiers had turned the tide. What had once been a town divided between oppressors and oppressed was now united under a single banner—the banner of Aeternum. For the people of Black Eagle Town, this was more than just the arri
“Because we’ve seen what happens to those who oppose Aeternum. You bring order, prosperity, and justice—things this town has been starved of for decades. Our so-called lords have fled like rats, but the people... they welcome you with open arms.”Lionel nodded, his grip on his weapon easing.“Very well. Gather your men and have them lay down their weapons. My team will oversee the transition of control.”Luis complied immediately, issuing orders to the remaining guards to disarm and report to Aeternum’s soldiers. As the formalities were completed, Lionel turned to Marlow.“Get on the comms and update the President. Black Eagle Town is officially under our control.”Marlow smirked.“This might be the easiest mission we’ve ever had.”Lionel chuckled.“Don’t jinx it, Marlow. We’re not done yet.”Word of the surrender spread quickly among the townsfolk. The celebration that had started with the sight of Aeternum helicopters now reached a fever pitch.

From the safety of her balcony, an elderly woman raised her hands to the sky, tears streaming down her face.“Thank you, Aeternum. Thank you for saving us!”Parents clutched their children close, explaining with hopeful smiles what this change meant for their future. Young adults and teens cheered in the streets, their voices ringing with newfound hope.The celebratory mood reached a crescendo as the Aeternum Special Forces, alongside town guards, began systematically detaining the corrupt elites. The crowd’s energy shifted to awe as they watched the once-mighty nobles, lords, and wealthy merchants dragged out of their grand carriages. Dressed in their opulent attire, the elite now looked out of place, bewildered, and terrified.“These are the ones who’ve stolen from us!”cried a farmer, his voice echoing with righteous anger.“Justice at last!”another voice shouted, met by roaring cheers of agreement. Despite their emotions, the townsfolk knew better than to interfere. The authority

"I never thought biology would be this easy…thanks to the 8.9 intellect point, I might even be a genius now…". The number of books I've finished in the past 2 days already passed 100 books, and I remember everything in all those books. As for my physical strength, let's just say I already surpassed a normal human capacity, I can fall a 20-meter tall tree with my bare fist, and ran 100 meters in under 5 seconds, that fact alone explains how a freak I've become. My world travel abilities were also leveled up to level 3 which enable me to enlarge the radius of the affected area by 24 Meters wide, thanks to that I was able to bring my 2018 F Transit van filled with wares with me. Thankfully the forest I'm in wasn't that dense, so I managed to drive through the forest slowly, also the beast and monsters always try to stay clear from my path, probably because of the loud exhaust sound I presume.

“This is it, Melinda,”he said softly.“This is the beginning of something new—for all of us.”“And it’s all thanks to Aeternum,”she replied, her voice filled with gratitude. As the people of Black Eagle Town came together to rebuild, their eyes turned to the horizon, waiting eagerly for the arrival of their liberators. The streets of Black Eagle Town were in utter chaos. Wealthy nobles, lords, and merchants, along with their families, had clogged the narrow cobblestone roads with carriages loaded with valuables. Gilded trunks and ornate chests teetered precariously atop the carriages, spilling jewels and fine silks as servants scrambled to secure their masters' possessions. Horses neighed and stomped, struggling to pull the overloaded carriages as the morning sun cast a harsh glare on the chaotic exodus.The townsfolk stood on the sidelines, watching with a mixture of amusement and contempt as the upper class fled.“Look at them,”Johny Eagle said, shaking his head as he leaned agai
9:00 AM, Black Eagle TownThe ornate halls of Baron Mikhail’s manor, which had always been filled with the echoes of lavish banquets and self-serving discussions, were eerily chaotic this morning. Servants scurried through the corridors, hastily packing valuables into crates and trunks. The once-proud lord of Black Eagle Town, Baron Mikhail, paced frantically in his study, his face pale and drenched in sweat.The news from the Aeternum Radio Broadcast had hit him like a thunderclap. The Aeternum Army, led by none other than the President of Aeternum himself, was marching toward the central region—and Black Eagle Town was directly in their path.Baron Mikhail slammed a trembling hand on his mahogany desk, glaring at the messenger who had delivered the dreadful news.“Do you understand what this means?”the Baron shouted, his voice a mix of terror and fury.“They’re coming for us—for me!”The messenger, a young man who had seen little of the luxury that surrounded him, stammered nervou
“The Aeternum Army hasn’t even arrived, and they’re already running with their tails between their legs.”The scene galvanized the townsfolk. For years, they had suffered under the tyranny of these same elites, who now abandoned them without a second thought.“We don’t need them!”a blacksmith shouted, raising his hammer into the air.“We can rebuild this town under Aeternum’s banner!”The crowd roared in agreement. Farmers, tradesmen, and laborers began organizing themselves, discussing how they could prepare for the Aeternum Army’s arrival. Some offered to clear the streets of debris, while others spoke of gathering supplies to welcome their liberators.As the chaos of the fleeing elites faded into the distance, the people of Black Eagle Town felt a renewed sense of purpose. For the first time in decades, they saw a future where they could live without fear, where justice and prosperity were not just dreams but tangible goals within their grasp.Standing amidst the crowd, Johny Eagl
Paul’s bony fingers tapped rhythmically on the desk as he considered the question.“If there’s one thing you can count on,”he said, his hollow voice firm,“it’s that His Excellency always finishes what he starts.”As the broadcast neared its conclusion, Quara leaned closer to the microphone, her voice filled with pride.“To the brave men and women of the Aeternum Army, and to our beloved President leading them—may you march forward with strength and honor. The people of Aeternum stand behind you, united in hope and faith. This is not just a battle—it is the dawn of a new era for Alemia and Aeternum alike.”The closing theme played, and as the broadcast ended, applause erupted in the studio. Quara removed her headphones, her heart swelling with pride.“Another stellar broadcast,”Paul commented, his skeletal hand giving her a rare approving gesture.“Thank you, Director,”Quara replied, smiling warmly.“Let’s hope the troops hear this and know we’re all rooting for them.”As the day u
“This is Quara Raedrim bringing you today’s top story on the Aeternum Radio Network.”She paused for effect, her emerald eyes glinting as she glanced at the breaking news memo in front of her.“Breaking news from the frontlines of Alemia Nation,”she announced, her tone rising with excitement.“This morning, it has been officially confirmed that His Excellency, President of Aeternum, has made the decisive move to restart the liberation campaign to bring the Alemia Nation fully under Aeternum governance.”Across New City, radios crackled in homes, cafes, and workplaces as citizens stopped what they were doing to listen.“Did you hear that?”a baker in the marketplace exclaimed, turning up the volume on his radio.“The President is leading the Eastern Army himself!”“I knew it,”a mother murmured to her young son, clutching his hand as they walked through the park.“He always fulfills his promises. Alemia will be whole again, under Aeternum’s light.”In the immigrant district, a group o
