After the press conference ended, Although the President Park Gun Yang and her team invited me to have dinner with them, I rejected the offers and left the venue. By this point Virtue Financial and My standing with the government were much more higher and noble than the most, so such rejections would not cause any problems at all, after all, the star of the party and also the crucial figures that was supposed to be there, Which is Virtue Medical CEO and CFO, Mariah Mills and also Choi Ji So were left behind, As well as Catherine who decided that she wanted to attend the party/Dinner.
It was understandable that they wanted to mingle more with the President, That because to them she was just another one of the powerful woman on their calibre. But to me, I know very well how and what she is, So being around her isn’t comfortable for me, She’s a viper and I don’t like to play her games too much, or I will easily get annoyed by it. I know quite a lo
“Risky because she was a spy…or risky because she attempted to leaked our secret?..”.“Both…her loyalty is questionable…at least that was it was to me…but now you wanted her to handle any work that you personally assigned…that seems too much to me…I mean…me and my team is already enough to do whatever you asked…”.(Bang Dae Jung)“..That is know..but you are…Virtue Financial Security Executives…and your team mates is also in the same scope as yours…you guys have much bigger jobs to handle…Guarding me and also doing your job as an executives is just too much…And now With Virtue Medical up and running…we need to put more on our security, protections to prevent us from losing anything crucial…VH-Serum is coveted by every single person on earth..and with the administrations is now releases from me, people would da
“Mr.Bang…the breakfast is very good today…As always…it’s suits my taste just perfectly..”.This morning as always I enjoyed the comfortable breakfast at my own home. It was just a simple Korean breakfast, just Kimchi fried rice and egg rolls, On contrary to my wealth, I enjoy this kind of simple breakfast, which kinda made my in house cook felt extremely lax. But still I enjoyed them anyway.“Thank you for your compliment sir…it’s always been my pleasure..Oh yes, By the way sir…the Town seems to be needing some more power…the populace asked me whether we should connect the power grid to the mainland..should we?..”. (Mr.Bang)“...I prefer not to connect them…after all, I wanted this town to be build on our own hands…about the power issues…I will find a way to fixed them…according to my calculation the current wi
“Then I supposed…we should follow Miss Park alternative…Miss park would prepared the plans and all the necessary things…then Mr,Bang you would follow up with her at later date….”.“i understand Sir…Then, I will take my leave first…just left the dishes there when you were finished Miss Park..the staff will handled them later…Sir…I will ready your coffee in a moment..”. (Mr.Bang)As a professional and seasoned Butler Mr.Bang knows when to give me a space and time of my own, Since Park Zuo Yung is here naturally I would want to talk to her privately. So he step out of the dining room and closed the door behind him. Seeing the changes, Park Zuo Yung wanted to stop eating her meal, but I just let her eat in peace, a few minutes later, she finished her meal, and Mr.Bang comes in with My coffee and serve them to both of us.“You handle you bus
The possibility of marriage at this current time, might sounded a little bit to stretch out to me, it was forcing to much. I Know Kingdom of Eloesa is in a tight spot at the moment, but for myself I don’t want to take advantage of that, Rather the expactations that me getting married to the Princess of Eloesa Kingdom, just for them to asked for more help and aid from Aeternum is just to convenient for them.In exchanged for a woman, I have to help a country with my won wallet. Perhaps the old monarch in Fantasma might think that this is feasible and perhaps even to their liking, but for me who built Aeternum under the modern thinking and institutions, Such action does not only will affected the country current reputations but also adding an unnecessary burden to ourself.“Marriage…is out of questions for me…just like I have said before…before we all got official…
New City is doing quite well, and also our Internal Audit Department also has been active to monitored the corruption issues, public safety were well taken care of, Also by now Aeternum Royal Military has already reached the mark of 40 000 seasoned and fully trained soldiers, the constant Dungeon diving session and also dungeon subduing mission has made, Aeternum soldier extremely experienced at combat. Aeternum full military might is already 150 000 men and woman strong, but only 50 000 were considered seasoned and elitist, the remaining 100 000 people were mostly new recruits and were still under training. But even so, the standard of Aeternum Army is far higher than any nation in Central Continent, even the recruits level can already be considered as full fledge soldier in any other country.“<Knock!..Knock!..>…Mr.President…Madam Governor Jelina is here..should I let her come in?..”. (Major Sareen)
As of now, Kingdom of Eloesa has no more funds or even resource that to them, they considered valuable. Right now they know, even at their ruined states, if they don’t want to be wiped from history they had to compromise and search for a way of survival. To them they have found they most probable and also the decisive way to ensure their Kingdom longevity, which is Aeternum, The only country that has been helping them in their time of crisis.But let’s be honest Queen Aqeesha and the entire Eloesa Royalty knew that they have no other viable offer to give, so in the end they resulted to the most usual and normal way of asking for help, which royal marriage. Aeternum by now is already considered an independent country, but in terms of Legitimacy, Aeternum does a little bit lacking. But that doesn’t mean that Aeternum will be needing a stuff like Legitimacy on their ruling, After all without it, they were able to become this
In the Kingdom of Eloesa at the moment, everything were well under control. The previous chaotic environment of uncertain danger lurking around the corner has become well under controlled, but still it was just barely being held together at this point. All of this thanks to the 5 000 Aeternum soldier from both the Army Branch of 02 Army battalion under the commander of General Lucas, and also to Special Force Branch, Dungeon Exploration and Extermination Division as well as the Eternal Night Division, The Special Force Branch were leads by the newly appointed Colonel Alessia Di Gianna. All of Aeternum forces were under the lead of High General Bina Murook, the Aeternum High General Military and also the Minister of Defence.“Madam…Is it the call from the Black House?..”. (Colonel Alessia Di Gianna)A few days back they have received the news of President returned, and at the same time of his arrival, the Kingdom of Eloesa
Kingdom of Eloesa were a warrior states, a country that believes in the way of fighter, of blood and steel and war. In the midst of Aeternum soldier wearing their combat uniform, there were also Eloesa Soldier in the midst joining their camping spot, watch post, patrol rounds and even the group of D E&E teams that just returned from Dungeon raiding. For 2 months already Eloesa Soldier has acknowledge Aeternum Soldier as the same as them, honourable, strong and prideful. “..Hmm…this Beefalo curry rice..is very delicious!!..no matter how many time I eat them…I just can’t get enough of it…(Sigh~)…I just wished that in the future…we Eloesan can enjoy this delicacy…”. (Knightess Tier 3 Despina) “...Well…I don’t think that it wasn’t impossible…Queen Aqeesha has already signed the Small Nation Coalitions with My country…certainly there will be a lot of stuff will be bought here as a trade…oh yeah, when will be the next horde coming?…”. (Cap
“I request a duel.”A murmur ran through both sides. Bina merely raised a single eyebrow.“A duel? Against me?” she said, tilting her head slightly, almost as if she hadn’t heard him correctly.Anton stood his ground.“If I win, you and your soldiers do not enter this palace.”Bina exhaled, her lips curving into something that wasn’t quite a smile.“And if you lose?”Anton’s jaw tightened.“Then my men will surrender peacefully.”A moment of silence passed between them.And then, Bina laughed.A deep, almost booming sound, filled with something akin to amusement… and disappointment.“You are either the bravest or the most foolish knight I have ever met, Captain Anton.” She rested her hand on the haft of her war axe, her fingers tightening around the weapon’s familiar grip.Anton did not flinch. Bina’s amusement faded. She gave him a firm nod. Both of them knew, this is actually a heartfelt plea from Anton, he wanted Grand General Bine to allow his men to live, this I his earnest beg.
At precisely 10 AM, just as the dust from the explosions had barely begun to settle, a deep echoing voice rang across the battlefield.“To the soldiers and citizens of Alemia!”It was him.The President of Aeternum.His voice carried through the winds, reverberating through the ruined streets, projected through Aeternum’s massive military speakers for all to hear.“Your war is over. Lay down your arms. Submit to the governance of Aeternum, and you will be spared.”His words hung in the air like a final judgment.And then, like a descending storm, the Aeternum Army finally began to move.It was a terrifyingly unified march.Thousands upon thousands of troops moved in perfect synchronicity, their steel boots pounding against the earth like a drum of war. Tanks rolled forward, massive military vehicles flanking the advancing battalions, gunships and airships circling the skies like mechanical reapers.At that moment, the people of Alemia saw it—the unstoppable tide of Aeternum’s might de
“Then let’s make history. Order the Navy Fleet 01 to launch three additional Type-1 Missiles. Targets: The East, North, and West gates of the capital.”The entire command bridge fell into stunned silence.Every officer, every technician, every strategist momentarily froze. Their eyes flickered with a mix of shock and anxiety as they processed my command. Even the seasoned veterans among them seemed momentarily taken aback.It was one thing to deploy a single missile.But three at once?That wasn’t just warfare—it was an annihilation order.Bina, Lucas, and Eliza, who had been following the situation via video conference, immediately reacted. Their holographic images flickered on the massive display before me, each one expressing their own unique emotions.Bina, ever the stoic and composed tactician, furrowed her brows, tapping her fingers against the table.“Mr. President… I assume you understand the full implications of this move?”I met her gaze without hesitation.“I do. This is th
At 6:45 AM, the order was given. Admiral Duchess Kolarova, commanding the Navy Fleet from the southern front, initiated the launch sequence. The missile streaked across the sky like a comet, its white trail a harbinger of devastation.From the Dragon One, I stood on the bridge, watching intently as the missile’s trajectory was displayed on the holographic screens. My officers around me held their breath, anticipation thick in the air.A few moments later, the missile hit its mark. The explosion that followed was nothing short of spectacular. The Alemia Capital City gates were obliterated, along with the surrounding walls and everything within a 100-meter radius. Dust and debris rose into the sky like a dark mushroom cloud, blotting out the early morning sun.The impact was beyond what any of us had anticipated. The "lowest-grade" missile had proven to be anything but low-grade.The news of the missile strike spread like wildfire through the Aeternum ranks. Soldiers, commanders, and of
BOOM!The object slammed into the city gates, unleashing a deafening explosion that shook the ground beneath their feet. The shockwave rippled outward, sending soldiers sprawling and shattering windows across the city. Dust and debris filled the air as the once-mighty gates crumbled into a smoking ruin.Amariss stumbled backward, his sword clattering to the ground as he stared in horror at the devastation.“What… what is this? What is happening?!”he stammered, his voice trembling with fear. In the distance, the Aeternum Navy Fleet stood poised, their warships bristling with firepower. The single missile had been a warning—a demonstration of Aeternum’s overwhelming strength and precision. And it had achieved its purpose.The soldiers of Amariss’s army, already demoralized and terrified, broke ranks almost immediately. Dropping their weapons and abandoning their positions, they fled in every direction, their panic spreading like wildfire.“Come back! COME BACK, YOU COWARDS!”Amariss sc
“The reports… the soldiers… they are abandoning their posts. Even the Prime Minister has—”“I know,”she interrupted, her voice calm but laced with resignation.“Let them go. They were never loyal to me to begin with.”Her Royal Knight Commander, Lucas Perdue, entered moments later, his face grim.“Your Majesty, the palace remains secure for now, but the city is unraveling. The people are heeding Aeternum’s call, not ours. And the army… they’ve lost the will to fight.”The Queen closed her eyes, taking a deep breath.“Lucas, prepare for the inevitable. Lock down the palace. Imprison those who remain loyal to the Prime Minister and the other schemers. And… prepare for my surrender to Aeternum.”Lucas hesitated, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword.“Are you certain, Your Majesty? To surrender is to admit—”“To admit that we’ve failed,”she finished for him.“Yes. Because we have failed. And the longer we cling to this throne, the more my people suffer….it is of no point to figh
Back at the frontlines, as soldiers readied themselves for the final march, they were moved by the reports circulating from command. The evidence of Alemia’s corruption and the suffering of its people only solidified their resolve. Around campfires and inside armored vehicles, soldiers shared their thoughts openly.One young soldier spoke with determination:“It’s not just about winning the war. We’re here to do something right—to fix what’s broken.”Another nodded, clenching her rifle tightly.“The President and the Vice President have never hidden anything from us. They’ve told us why we’re fighting, and that’s why I’d follow them anywhere.”Even the most hardened veterans were touched by the weight of their mission. One grizzled commander, looking out at the stars, muttered to himself,“We’re not just soldiers. We’re builders of a better future.”As the evening turned to night, a quiet anticipation spread across Aeternum and the liberated regions of Alemia. Farmers working their fi
“[To the citizens of Aeternum, know this: our soldiers, our leaders, and our government are united in our cause. We fight not for conquest, but for liberation. We fight to bring light to a land that has known darkness for far too long. And we fight because we believe in a better future for all.]”As she reached the conclusion of her address, Elijah’s voice softened slightly, carrying a note of hope.“[Let us move forward together—with courage, with resolve, and with the knowledge that we are on the side of justice. Aeternum stands as a beacon of hope, and together, we will bring peace to Alemia Nation. Thank you, and may we all stay safe in the hours ahead.]”The response to Elijah’s address was immediate and palpable. Across Aeternum, workers paused their tasks, families huddled around radios, and soldiers standing in the encampments felt a renewed sense of purpose.In one bustling Aeternum farm, a group of farmers stood together, their hands still muddy from the fields, listening in
“This is why I serve Aeternum,”he said.“Our government doesn’t hide anything from us. The President shows us the truth—the corruption, the suffering, everything. We’re not here for conquest. We’re here to fix what’s broken.”A sergeant nearby nodded.“And the Crown Prince? He deserves everything that’s coming to him. My wife is from Alemia, and she told me stories of what that man has done—taxing people into starvation while throwing lavish parties. It’s disgusting.”Another soldier, a former immigrant from Alemia, added,“It’s not just him. The entire royal family let this happen. But the fact that the President is willing to spare Queen Romella and preserve a part of Alemia’s heritage? That shows we’re not here to destroy—we’re here to rebuild.”Even the officers echoed similar sentiments. In the command tent, a group of captains discussed the decision over steaming mugs of coffee.“This is why we’re different,” one of them said.“Other nations would have razed Alemia to the groun
