Aeternum, Presidential Mansion, Butler Study Room.
After the president has finished his breakfast and headed to prepare himself for the day ahead, Alfred headed to his room, which is the largest room in the Maids and Mansion Staff quarter, he made a call to office of the Madame of the Mansion.
“Hello Lady Elijah…Regarding the Letter from the Duke, Sire Mies has read of it and made a decision that he had to give a respond to the Duke…after he finished the tour at the Research and Development Centre…he would leave for the Merrica City, perhaps in the evening…”. (Alfred)
Alfred as always called for Elijah to informed the Lady of the House about Mies decisions, after all, last evening when the letter arrived, he had told Elijah first as soon as he got the letter, and after he found out the content of the letter.
Aeternum, Government District, Research and Development Centre.“BOSSS!!…look at this!!…Beautiful isn’t it?…a modern Vehicles powered by our very own natural power..the Mana Core!!..Just like you said the usage of petroleum really were bad..not only for the environment..but also for the people around it!..”. (Professor Bar)As one of the first generations of Aeternum, that were here at the beginning of Aeternum founding, Bar and Bob who is the Leading figure in the Research and Development Centre, they naturally friendly with me and called me the same terms as any, that belonged to the first generation of Aeternum, Calling me ‘Boss’.When me and Alfred arrived at the Centre, Bar and Bob were already there, at the front gate, together with all his subordinates, all of them were wearing slick White Robe with a downed hood, with the back side embroidered wi
“Is that the president?..”. (Elf Military Police)“...Yeah….and a bunch of Researcher….I can’t help but feeling sorry for those softies….a few of them already showered our Runway with their pukes….well that’s what you get when you wanted to tag along in the car that were drive by Aeternum greatest driver…”. (Lizard men Military Police)It was truly a spectacular sight to see Bulky Fort X50 that were filled with researchers, racing through the runway, doing drift left and right, then going full speed like a F1 car, with no limitation whatsoever. Every single person that were on the Runway and at the Air Force Base were all spectating the reckless drive, some were even cheering when the truck drifts, some of the soldier were even started to made a bet on their chosen researcher, seeing who would vomit next.“[SCRRRRREEECCCHHHH!!!]….Owh, Eli
Hallerus Kingdom/Aeternum Border.Unlike any other Border in Central Continent, Fantasma. The border of Aeternum were extremely clear, Usually for any medieval country in Fantasma, A nation border were usually consist of the same features, a large sized Town or Fortress, were built at the main roads that connecting countries, which then serves as the entry point to the country, and then, in addition to said Fortress or Town, there will be a stretch of high and seemingly impenetrable and imposing Walls. Though this kind of wall were just span at least a few kilometers long, rarely stretch passed a dozen kilometer and even impossible to see one that encompassed the entire nation border.But that not seems to be the case for Aeternum, The border line of Aeternum was built, in about 1 kilometer away from the Hallerus Kingdom, Murr Territory Border wall, or The Fortress Merrica of The Tri-Nation Valley. And Unlik
If it was a civil war then they were not actually my concern, nor I even want to get involved, Elven nation no matter which country it is, they were more isolated and rather wanted to keep everything to themselves, that’s just how they were, Proud, arrogant and self centered, especially those Elf that were on power. As for elf generally they were all just the same as any other people, not very much different, but one factor that differentiates them from any other races, is that their capacity for magic, Elf no matter whom, young or old, they were born special in Fantasma, to be the master of Magic.“Hmm…those refugees, is of Child of Light tribe…that’s is a rare one…”. (Alfred)Alfred chimed in as he had made his closer observations.“Child Of Light Tribe?….are they related to the Principality?..”.“...No…as a matter of fact
“Meaning Everything that has happened…from the start of the plans all the way to the Kidnapping…were already known to the King himself…because this traditions called ‘Declaring Intent of War’?..”.As of the moment we were heading towards Merrica City. Naturally our convoy were roaring through the roads, much faster than any of those carriage that were also traversing the road, We even got passed several noble carriage that looks as if they wanted to race us, but ultimately getting left in the dust.I am currently sitting inside one of the SUV, as I still have to listen to Agent Curufor Soaringsun report and detailed explanation to how everything were going on on the Duke side. As I heard the detailed of the plan and everything that had transpired through the process of their attempted Coup, I was bewildered due to how stupid everything was. Apparently there were a tradition, which were hold in a v
After sitting in the car for over 2 and a half hour, we finally arrived at the Merrica City. If anyone else in Fantasma, it would take them at least 10 hours or more from Aeternum Border to reach this city, but as we were in a modern Vehicles that has already using the Mana Core, we don’t need to stop at all, not even for refuel. The efficiency of the newly modified cars were extremely great, a single Mana core or Beast Core of Grade D, can last a drive time for 168 continuous hours. That’s a full one week of constant moving around just one core, that cost about 10 credits or 10 silver coins in the Central Money. The cost of using these car that were recently modified were just 10% of the cost of using a Horse powered carriage. That is how saving this is.Also a D Grade Mana Core is literally abundance in this world, it can simply be obtained by Killing a Tier 1 and higher monster, or perhaps can even be mined at the mine and the D grade were just a
Last evening me and the entire convoy have arrived at the Aeternum Consulate, here in the Merrica City. After a full night of resting in our designated Mansion, I left to do my work, Which is more inspections on the Consulate, where Paradine works, I were quite surprised with the degree of efficiency that she and her team had done. She has actually picked up where Colleen had left before and further strengthen Aeternum foothold and influence, in not only Merrica City but also the Entire Murr Territory and she has already started to further her plans to firmly hold the Entire Hallerus Kingdom.“Your Highness President…if everything went as we have planned…in the next three months, Aeternum Super Store and also our Logistics route…will be able to encompassed the entire Hallerus Kingdom…”. (Paradine)Sitting right beside me, she explained to me her presentations of her future plans. In the room right now,
“How presumptuous!!..how dare they made us as their gamble object!!..”. (Alfred)“How did this happened!…Sire what must we do?..”. (Paradine)Both Alfred and Paradine were already standing up and clearly didn’t hide their anger to the fact that Aeternum or perhaps me has somehow become and object in this civil war, while for me this is somehow has become the normal plot for a dynasty drama. Even Curufor the agent were clamping his fist tight following the other 2 reactions.“.…Curufor, tell me again…how many is the Hallerus Kingdom heirs that were in the line?..”.“...According to our database…it was 7…4 prince and 3 Princess..”. (Agent Curufor)The anger and the madness stopped, as I asked the Agent a questions which he answered immediately, he knew about the details as he were one of
"When this war ends, Alemia will rise again, stronger and united under Aeternum. And this march—this slow, deliberate march—is the first step toward that brighter future."With that thought, I turned back toward the command post, ready to oversee the next phase of our campaign.Our troops pressed forward with relentless efficiency, their pace never faltering despite the numerous side missions I tasked to the detachment units. Each liberated settlement followed the same protocol: Capture of Lords: Every noble or lord who held sway over the settlement was immediately captured and sent to Georgina City for judgment. These lords, guilty of oppressing their people, represented the old regime—a relic that had no place in the new Alemia under Aeternum rule. Establishing Order: The local guards were disbanded, their weapons confiscated, and a new administration was set up. Four of my trusted soldiers were stationed in each settlement to oversee governance, ensuring law, order, and security we
"Commander Bravo reports success in the town of Greenwill. Hostile resistance neutralized. The population is secure and stabilized.""Detachment Echo has liberated the village of Windcliff. No casualties, local leaders have pledged loyalty to Aeternum governance."Each report filled me with pride. These were not just military victories but also symbolic steps toward a better future for Alemia. As I gazed out of the vehicle window, watching the endless column of soldiers, vehicles, and supplies move steadily forward, I reflected on the strategy.There was no need to rush. Our overwhelming superiority meant that time was on our side. The final battle would come soon enough. For now, every slow step forward was an opportunity to stabilize and rebuild, ensuring that no shadow of rebellion could remain."Let others see this not just as a march to war but as a march of progress. Each town secured, each village stabilized is another foundation stone for the future of Alemia under Aeternum’s
“You want to speak with the president?”.Lieutenant Colonel Selie spoke with a quizzical tone in her voice, although the town had been liberated and his mission are basically completed, Captain Lionel felt the need to give the full extent of his reports on how he was able to liberate the town. After all the town surrendered to him before he was able to even fire a single shot from his firearms. This situation is rather odd, and he need the president to know everything about it, just so that he can take actions to deal with anything that might come up afterwards. So, the phone call turned into a brief awkward silence for a little bit, as the Lieutenant Colonel on the other side were thinking about his request.“Well… since you had performed well…. I will reward you with a direct line to the president himself…”.“I… Thank you, madam…”.Lionel was very appreciative about his Lieutenant Colonel giving him permission to speak with the president.“Don’t worry about it… in fact, you aren’t
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
“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. Children ran through the streets shout
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
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
“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
