"So you're saying that this glowing ball is equivalent to 10 nuclear warhead?..".
[Yep..but, since this is Fantasma and that Anchor Core was a magical artifact…it's doesn't gave out radiations..you could try use it as a power reserve for you electricity..I can help you research how to do it..]. (T.A.S)
It's kinda weird to hear and see that the round glowing crystal ball that in my hand right now was as strong 10 nuclear warhead. After defeating the Warden, the only thing that left inside the crater was, this Basketball big Anchor Core @ Dungeon core,7 skill shards, the glowing skull of the Warden(That apparently is the Seal for Paul Shackles), 1 High Grade Dimensional Storage (The inside was filled with Dragons Bones and 1 broken branch with 1 leaf at the end) and a piece armour that the warden previously wear. Actually there's nothing remains of the warden inside the crater, but for some reason these loots were inside the cr
Dungeon Exploring and relocations of The beavers and Moles clans already done a few days ago. Paul also has been safely released from his Cursed and already making his name in Aeternum. Our profit from the dungeon was quite big, resource wise off course. T.A.S manage to archive and analyze a few magical enchantment, Magic spells tomes and more importantly he was able to pin several key locations for Dwertur precious metals mine. Sitting inside my meeting room, I finally able to launch my plans for Aeternum radio broadcasting."Quite a place you got here Sir….So, what work you got for me?….Sir..". (Paul)Paul the skeleton carefully swallow his imaginary saliva as Elijah stare down at him."I need you to be my Radio DJ….in here there's everything about your new job…I will also assign a special crew for you…for now all you got to do is familiarize yourself with the manual, and the devices you will be us
For the past few weeks Merrina town has become the talk of all people in Halerus Kingdom, thanks to the new Store called Aeternum Super store that appeared out of nowhere. The store was revolutionary, selling multitude range of items, high quality tools, clothing articles that more soft and flashy than any noble boutique, high quality foods, and more importantly thousand kind of Spices and paper that as white as clouds.The store never seems to runs out of product, the price is appropriate and affordable. the store provide a high class and fast service by their worker, everyone have only praised for this store. Though there's some rival merchant try to slander and even tried to copy their merchandise, the store never falter, instead, surprising enough The merchant associations and The Duke Merrica household comes to squash and punish the ill intended Merchant. No one dares to make move at them after that, The Store also seems to be connected to a mysterious C gr
"What an intricate artifact..I never seen such like it..it's even shine when I press the button..ohh..Miss Yvone said it can make a painting..Panderson look..". (Richard Benson)"Ehem…Sir, this is a precious artifact..probably made by a the Great High Human…also it's Pictures not painting…Also, it's very expensive…so please stop playing with it too much..".(Mr.Panderson)"I'm just appreciating it….I'm glad the deal went through nicely, as a matter of fact the terms wasn't all that absurd..It was as if they knew our limit and capability…".(Richard Ben Benson)Richard Benson actually expects the terms to be very outrageous considering their reputations, but instead it was fair."Aeternum Super Store was exactly as their image..they do everything with care, normally organizations as their reputations will demand almost anything…but instead they conduct fairly, no wonde
The weather was quite nice today, I love fall season it's not too hot and a little bit chilly. Since I got a little bit of money to spare I've decided to move out from my current house, in fact, I just immigrated from the US to Korea. The gold that I gave Lee Family hasn't fully liquidated yet, there's about 30% left from the full amount. Lee Han Na works with Katherine to manage the money, with Kathy own decisions (With T.A.S approval on my side) has invested the majority of Virtue Financial funds to buy stocks shares in the various company all over the world. Thanks to that one of the shipping companies in Korea who's been saved by Virtue Financial fund injections, own a small island and they decided to give Virtue financial (Me) the island as a gift."Are you sure you're gonna live on the island?..". (Catherine)"Well…yes, It's a private island with a private homestead mansion on it…did you see my house?..it's a hundred times better than it, of
3 days after Chairwoman Catherine announce the very first special project for Virtue Financial, the whole company was in the state of alert, especially for the 3 Medical research institute that got listed for the project. Normally everyone who was affiliated with Virtue Financial took the order from Chairwoman Catherine which they all knew off, but Everyone knew that she was also like them, working for someone. Everybody knew there's someone above her that holds the total control Virtue Financial and up until now the figure never appeared anywhere. That fact alone made every company directors under Virtue Financial pay special attention to these events.It was 11 am in the morning at Haneul University Hospital, Seoul Korea, everyone in the conference building next to the main hospital building was in high alert, it's a total lockdown, hundreds of black suits security roaming around patrolling, making sure the building was clear from any unauthorized personnel. A black Lim
"I know..you're kind…High and mighty, always feel inferior to others…the problem is…I..hate..people..like you….<Squeeze!!>..".I grab his shoulder and intentionally pushed my thumb inside the bullet wounds, causing the blood oozing out even more. As his scream turns to heavy heaves, everyone nails to their place, Security tries to break through the door, but Bang Dae Jung was there to calm the situations and prevent anyone to come in and goes out."One thing you all seems to forget, I own Virtue Financial, the Very company that saves you all from your demise…YOU..work for me..not the other way around..and you Edward Crown, everyone know that because of your stupid mistake and lustful nature towards the underage girls..made your company falls..and who repaired all that?…me, I can just kick you out but, I don't why?…because that Woman over there says 'no'….".I pointed at Catherine who's back turned at
Aeternum, Black Keep, Central Meeting Room.Ever since The President leaving for his another 'Business Trip', Elijah and the other 5 Minister has been diving deep into piles if works. Today marks the 1 first week of the launching of Aeternum big project 'The Radio Broadcasting'. Thankfully the R&D department and The Resource department are already being ordered to manufactured the newly improved radios beforehand by the President Himself. A week ago Elijah decided has decided to add another 500 additional Core Radio to be produced, and all of them already finished and ready to be distributed."Everything is ready, the Core radio already being loaded along with the supplies for Aeternum Super Store in Merrina Town..". (Andrea)"Good, Bina..we need to distribute the Core Radio fast and safe...I need 1 squad to be with the Core Radio lorry, and they will be accompanying the Pegasus Wheel Company caravan…This is the list where the radio will h
"All Unit Full Speed!... I want 10 towns delivered before Sundown!..". (Major Colleen)From inside the APC Punisher, Colleen relays her order via walkies talkies. It's been day 2 since they started the deliveries, right now they already halfway across the entire Hallerus Kingdom, the last stop within The Hallerus Kingdom is it's Capital Hallerusia in just 2 days the fleets already traveled to all 6 of regions Hallerus with no complications at all, and 200 Core Radios has been successfully delivered and installed."I can't believe we just traveled all over Hallerus in 2 days…the beast not only sturdy but also insanely fast..". (Lobo)Lobo was one of Mr.Panderson assistants. Originally each carriage has 3 people on it, and that people along with their carriage will be left at their destinations. But since they had no carriage with them, and they only have brought themselves as all their supposed items have been stored inside The Maidens Dimensional Boxes, a
“So…” Baroness Elise folded her arms. “Are you telling us that our businesses are failing because we refuse to acknowledge the common folk as valuable clients?”“Precisely,” Lionel said. “Look, my friends—tradition is fine, but wealth does not care about tradition. You must ask yourselves, do you wish to cling to outdated ideals and watch your investments fail? Or will you embrace modernity and open your doors to the true economy?”The Angela nobles were silent.Marquis Alistair eventually exhaled. “Damn… I hate to admit it, but you’re right.”Duke Clarence sighed, rubbing his temples. “It seems we have much to reconsider.”Lionel smirked. “That’s the first step to success. Now… shall we discuss how to properly revamp your business strategies?”By the time Angela’s nobles returned home, their entire perspective had changed. Within weeks, their resorts underwent major rebranding, opening their services to the wealthy merchants, military officers, and successful craftsmen that made up A
Duke Clarence and his companions exchanged glances. The idea of a nobility focused on economy and culture rather than ruling and taxation was unthinkable in the Dukedom of Angela.At that moment, Countess Vivian Lancaster, a noblewoman from Aeternum’s east, approached the group with a knowing smile. “And you should know, Duke Clarence,” she said smoothly, “there is far more wealth and prestige in industry than in ruling over struggling farmers.”She produced a document, sliding it across the table. It was an investment portfolio—Aeternum Nobles had turned entire mountain valleys into profitable spa resorts, old castles into boutique hotels, and hunting grounds into elite golf courses.Marquis Alistair leaned forward, his eyes widening at the immense profits outlined in the reports. “By the heavens… you’re making millions in mere months,” he whispered.Viscount Lionel nodded, clearly enjoying their shock. “And it is all because we embraced progress, rather than clinging to the past.”Ba
“This railway is not merely a connection between nations,” Queen Angela declared, “but a symbol of progress. A bridge between past traditions and the bright future we shall build together.”President Mies added, “With this project, Angela will no longer be isolated or vulnerable. It will be a thriving hub of innovation and prosperity.”The people roared with approval, commoners eager for job opportunities, and nobles eager for increased wealth.Meanwhile, across the border, envoys from Hallerus Kingdom and the Golden Triangle Nation secretly observed the Angela-Aeternum railway collaboration.One Hallerus official slammed his fist onto his desk upon receiving the report. “They’re building a rail network that connects Aeternum to the Forbidden Wasteland?! If this continues, Angela will become untouchable!”A Golden Triangle merchant sneered. “Tch. Those fools in Angela have completely sold themselves to Aeternum. But we can do nothing. Our king already declared hostilities. We are lock
While Angela embraced its partnership with Aeternum, its rival nations were watching with envy and resentment.The Kingdom of Hallerus and the Golden Triangle Nation, both historical adversaries of Aeternum, knew they had missed their chance to secure such a lucrative alliance.In the Hallerus Royal Palace, King Hadrian scowled as he studied a detailed report on the Aeternum-Angela railway project.“They are modernizing too quickly,” he muttered. “Soon, Angela will be just as powerful as Aeternum.”His advisors nodded grimly, but they knew there was nothing they could do.Meanwhile, in the Golden Triangle Nation, Emperor Verix tapped his fingers on his throne, deep in thought.“Aeternum is changing the continent,” he murmured. “And we are falling behind.”With Angela fully embracing progress, Aeternum’s expansion showed no signs of stopping. The railway was more than just steel and tracks—it was the path to a new era. A nation modernizing at unprecedented speed. A people eager to grow
The Dukedom of Angela was no longer just a small kingdom caught between larger powers—it was now on its way to becoming a global trade hub.To further solidify their partnership, Aeternum opened job opportunities for Angela’s citizens. Engineering apprenticeships were offered to young scholars eager to learn Aeternum’s technology. Labor positions in railway maintenance, track laying, and station operations provided work for thousands.Even hospitality and tourism sectors saw a boom, with people preparing for the influx of travelers who would soon visit their cities. Aeternum made one thing clear—this railway wasn’t just for Aeternum’s benefit, but for Angela’s prosperity as well.However, not everyone was happy about this monumental project.The Kingdom of Hallerus and the Golden Triangle Nation, both long-time rivals of Aeternum, watched the cooperation between Aeternum and Angela with growing jealousy and frustration.For years, both nations had sought to expand their influence in t
“Aeternum plans to construct the longest and most advanced railway system in the continent,” Mies explained, unfolding a detailed map of Central Continent on the table.“We wish to connect New City to the Forbidden Wasteland, and we have chosen the Dukedom of Angela as the interconnection point.”Queen Angela studied the map carefully. “So, Angela would serve as the bridge between Aeternum’s mainland and its Wasteland territories?”“Yes,” Minister Andrea confirmed. “We will be using Mana-powered maglev technology, capable of traveling at speeds unheard of in this world.”Princess Angela’s eyes widened. “You mean to tell me… you’re planning to build a train that runs on magic and technology?”Mies smirked. “That’s exactly what we’re doing.”“This will be the first of its kind,” Vice President Elijah added. “And it will set the foundation for global transportation.”The Dukedom of Angela would become the gateway between two of the most significant territories in the world—Aeternum’s mai
For centuries, The Institute of Artemesia had been one of the world’s most respected academic and magical research institutions. But they had always struggled with one thing—funding and access to knowledge.Aeternum had solved both problems. Inside the Grand Royal Library of Aeternum, Head Scholar Callisto Verdan stood in awe.She ran her hands over the massive tomes of knowledge, collected from all over the world and carefully preserved in Aeternum’s archives.Rare magical research, ancient history, modern technological advancements—it was all here.“Aeternum’s funding has allowed us to expand our studies beyond imagination,” she murmured, her voice trembling with excitement.“With access to this library, we are no longer bound by the limitations of our past.”Beside her, Professor Aldrich—one of Artemesia’s leading scholars—nodded.“The rest of the world still clings to outdated traditions,” he said. “But here? Here we can create the future.”Aeternum had become the center of knowle
Across the different worksites, the harmony between technology and magic became apparent. Aeternum was the only nation in the world that had successfully merged magic with engineering, creating an industrial revolution like no other.Water Mages worked in tandem with high-powered water filtration systems, providing fresh, clean water to new housing districts within hours instead of weeks.Wind Mages generated artificial air currents, assisting the construction of massive skyscrapers without the need for medieval-style scaffolding.Lightning Mages charged up Mana Generators, providing clean, renewable electricity to power Aeternum’s growing urban expansion.The Alemia and Battle Star refugees had never seen anything like it.They had always been told that magic and technology could never coexist—that magic was only for battle and technology was inferior to the will of the gods.But here, in Aeternum, they saw the truth. Magic was not just for war. Technology was not just for the privil
Madeline, another single mother, found herself equally overwhelmed—but for an entirely different reason. Back in the Empire, food was a luxury.If you were lucky, you had stale bread, old vegetables, or a tiny scrap of meat to share with your family. Shopping for food was never a choice—you simply took whatever was available and prayed that it would last.But in Aeternum’s markets, things were completely different.One afternoon, she stood frozen in the middle of a supermarket aisle, staring at the endless rows of fresh produce, canned goods, dairy products, and even exotic spices from other parts of the world.She could hardly comprehend what she was looking at.It wasn’t just that there was food available—it was the sheer abundance of it. She felt anxious. Lost. Uncertain.She turned to the store worker nearby, a cheerful young woman dressed in the green uniform of Haven Mart, the government-affiliated grocery chain."How… how do I know what to pick?" Madeline asked hesitantly.The
