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 atAeternum, 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

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
"Did you say that the Duke Himself come to lead you into the capital?..". (Richard Benson)Mr.Panderson is in the Pegasus Wheel Company main office in front of his Master, reporting about everything that happens along his travel, every single of his story were shocking enough for Richard Benson to have headaches."Also the most important thing was Aeternum Super Store was only interested in doing business..but I suspect that Aeternum Super Store wasn't your normal store with a normal background..in my opinion, they might be a state-own operation, and it's not among the nations we known…". (Mr.Panderson)"State-owned?…Anyway Panderson, it's enough for us to just know that they won't implicate us in any bad way…we worked hard to obtain their partnership….don't let your curiosity ruin this golden chance….".(Richard Benson)Unlike Mr.Panderson, Richard Benson's views were different.

Hwang Hwa Young was a multi-talented celebrity in Korea entertainment, she appears in drama, commercial advertisement, Movies, tv shows, she even appeared in the latest trend tv reality shows that produce an Idol group. Although her debut was low key, her beauty and gentle personality have been always highlighted in televisions. She who always portrayed as innocent beauty and has always been targeted by media and paparazzi to be included in scandals. With her Fame, fabricated scandals keep coming in, and in just a few years her popularity started to plunged, for a media personality such situations was akin to a death sentence.Despite the situations stack against her, the innocent beauty never strays from her path. She always strives to be truthful, wanted to be recognized by her talent, not by ridiculous scandals. Little that she knows, all the scandals were actually made by her own agencies, producing a scandal in return of payments was kind of one of the well-covered b

I can tap into every single devices in this world if I wanted to…playing with information and investment is just a game for me..besides with Virtue name plastered everywhere..it won't be suspicious when we receive trillions of dollar at once…so, when you wanted to do something It won't be too much hassle.. ].

Today marked the end of 1-month dateline since I ordered the Core Radio distributions, Though I expect it to be done in 1 week at first, after hearing Yvone and Elijah reasoning, I have to accept that traversing to 3 countries in the medieval world in a short amount of time was simply impossible, even with modern vehicles. Thankfully Colleen was able to just do it in 2 weeks, Since it comes to it, I made a decision to extend it to another 2 weeks, making sure that everything from music, drama, and news will be available in the first broadcast.In that one month, I was quite busy, transporting materials from the earth to Fantasma, recording song (Me singing the 80s song from the earth ), producing a radio drama (Old Radio drama from the earth), monitoring Virtue Financial operations after the Launching of VH-Serum (got positive receptions from everywhere). Right now, I was on my way to the newly build Aeternum Entertainment Center, where Paul the Skeleton will be Hosting t
"I never once imagined that I would have a Ygdrasil Sapling…It's Kinda surreal…..Look's cute though, despite its huge appetite..".The weird branch that I obtained from the last month Dwertur dungeon raid was actually a withered Ygdrasil/Mother Tree/World Tree sapling. it holds enormous power, it can produce a sanctuary Shield that can protect thousand of miles with magic, deter the attack of the monster, even affect the ecosystem around it. But, since it was withering the sapling need's a supply of a large amount of mana, and as a remedy for it, a dungeon core needs to be buried near the sapling for it to absorb, for the past 2 months since I realize what it is, I already feed it with 10 dungeon core. The Mother Tree now already starts to appear more vibrant, it finally has the appearance of a small tree. I placed it in the New City Central Park, right in front of my New House.The constructions of New City already reached its final phase for the
2 months have passed since Xing was bought by The Pegasus Wheel Company back in Battle star Empire, Xing was a Feline Demi-Human, Cheetah Tribes from the eastern Plains of The Forbidden Land it's a Thousand Miles Southwest of Battle Star Empire. Xing was a War slave own by the Battle Star Empire, he fought almost 20 skirmishes, against Visma Nations and Alemia Nation, Born from the Prideful Cheetah Tribe, he was among the best warrior in the war, with only bare hand he survived every battle. But War Slave is still a slave, Just like all the Slave in the 300th Coach heading North, His lives were not his own, but on the hands of his master."Xing..where do you think we're going?..". (Alehandro)Alehandro was also in the same war slave troop as Xing, He is 20 years old Dwarf from The Dukedom of Angela. They have been sitting inside the cramp small coach for 2 months."What's Different does it makes….it's probably another war…". (Leko)Watch
I took another sip of tea, letting the warmth spread through me.Because here’s the delicious irony: by copying our education system, they didn’t just adopt our books and schedules.They were adopting our mindset.Every child who learned using our curriculum. Every teacher trained by our methods. Every official who quoted Aeternum textbooks. They were all little seeds planted deep within foreign soil.In ten years?Those nations would think like us.In twenty?They would be like us. All without a single sword being drawn. I leaned back in my chair, utterly content.Without armies, without bloodshed, we were gaining soft political power over thirty-one nations.Real power.The kind that shaped futures. Mina clinked her cup lightly against mine in a silent toast, her green eyes sparkling.“To the future?” she teased.I smiled, lifting my cup.“To the future we’re writing,” I said.And out there, beneath the quiet, darkening sky, the seeds of a new world had already begun to bloom.The n
In New City, the public watched it all unfold on massive news screens and digital displays.A young woman in a coffee shop blinked back tears.“My mother couldn’t even sign her name,” she said. “Now, she’s going to school at sixty. Can you imagine?”A factory worker on break raised his can of iced tea. “They used to mock us for thinking machines would replace us. Now? My kid’s learning to design them.”Later that evening, President Mies stood at his office window in the Black House, overlooking a city glowing with lights and ambition.Minister Myers entered, holding the finalized signed charter.“It’s done,” he said quietly. “They all agreed. The future begins today.”Mies nodded. “We’ve unified their borders, their defense, and their markets,” he said. “Now, we unify their minds.”A long silence followed. Then, just a single line: “History will remember this moment.” And across the continent, it already had.The evening air was soft, almost languid, as I sat back in my chair, savorin
As the documents were sealed, cameras flashed and live broadcasts streamed the images of rulers shaking hands with President Mies—smiles genuine, eyes alight with purpose.The message to the world was unmistakable:Aeternum does not just lead with power—it leads with knowledge.Later, in a private conversation, Jonathan Myers turned to Mies.“This is more than we hoped.”Mies looked out the window of his office, where the UNA flags fluttered in a perfect row.“No,” he said. “This is exactly what I planned.”Jonathan raised a brow. “And what next?”Mies smiled faintly. “We teach the world… to think like us.”The central assembly hall of New Concordia UNA Headquarters—a gleaming white dome adorned with banners of thirty-one nations—had never been so full.Delegates filled every seat. National flags stood in perfect rows. The giant LED display behind the stage glowed with the symbol of the United Nation Alliance, now framed by a new banner in golden letters:"Education for All – A Future
Outside the palace gates, the citizens of Hallerus City buzzed with excitement. News traveled fast: another king had come, and he, too, had seen the truth.And far beyond the city walls, whispers began in other UNA courts:“Perhaps we should ask Queen Helen for assistance.”“Maybe Aeternum’s model isn’t just for them.”“Could we build this future too?”In the Black House of New City, when President Mies received the report of King Leopold’s visit, he simply closed the folder and smiled slightly."One seed sows a thousand trees," he murmured.And in the fields of Fantasma, the seeds of knowledge had already begun to sprout.The towering skyline of New City shimmered beneath a clear morning sky. It was a perfect day for diplomacy—and a historic one.Within the great glass-paneled east wing of the Black House, Aeternum’s political nerve center, a long oval table had been prepared. Security was tight, the air dignified, yet the atmosphere was distinctly welcoming. For today, President Mie
That evening, Queen Helen hosted a quiet reception for the UNA visitors. Modest food, strong Hallerian tea, and conversation flowed freely.“We’re not pretending it’s perfect,” Helen told them. “But we’re not pretending it’s impossible, either.”One observer raised a hand, smiling. “Would you be open to helping other nations start similar programs?”Helen looked to Merrica, then back to them.“Of course,” she said. “We’ve taken help. It would be wrong not to offer it.”It was the kind of answer that made diplomats take notes. And so, Hallerus—once a fractured kingdom cast in shadow—began to shine in a new light. Not as a symbol of power. But as a model of transformation. And as the scholars walked the streets of Hallerus City, alongside teachers and curious children, they quietly realized: The future wasn’t just being forged in Aeternum anymore. It was spreading.The scent of blooming gardenias filled the royal courtyard of Hallerus Royal Palace. The sun hung high above the battlement
“It’s… beautiful,” she said.Jonathan smiled. “It’s sure is,.”The first major step was the immediate conversion of six major city libraries into public education centers. Then came the pilot schools—one for each major region of the kingdom. Each staffed with a blend of local teachers (newly trained) and educational experts from Aeternum who came to oversee implementation.Within a month, Hallerus Elementary Schools opened their doors for the first time. Children from farming villages and mining towns, who had never once held a book of their own, were now reading stories about space, science, and society. They learned arithmetic on digital chalkboards and watched recorded lectures from Aeternum instructors. Classrooms were modest, but organized. Desks were salvaged, but steady.The change was jarring. But it was real. Queen Helen visited one of these pilot schools in the outskirts of Archenport. There, she saw barefoot children reciting alphabet lines. She watched a young girl raise h
Outside in the streets of New City, a mural was already being painted on the wall of a youth center—depicting two children, one Aeternian and one Hallerian, sitting together at a shared desk beneath the words:"Wisdom Unites What War Divides."The mural was uncommission—but no one was taking it down. From within the homes, classrooms, and council chambers of Aeternum, the message was clear: the world was learning, and they were learning from Aeternum.And that made the people walk taller.Because every road rebuilt in Hallerus, every classroom opened, every young mind taught in their system—was a quiet victory for Aeternum’s vision. The age of empires was ending. The age of influence had begun.The great hall of Hallerus Royal Palace hadn’t hosted a summit like this in over a generation. Not for war. Not for taxation. But for education.Long tables stretched beneath arched stone windows, newly adorned with fresh flags representing each province of the Hallerus Kingdom. The air smelled
Contracts were awarded to the newly established Hallerus Road Commission, overseen by both local talent and advisory engineers from Aeternum. Bright orange marker flags began appearing all over the kingdom, outlining future road paths. Caravans brought in equipment, gravel, construction tools—and, notably, several transport trucks from Aeternum carrying the first batch of reinforced roadstone, a durable blend sourced from the Stone Ring mountains.Helen personally visited the first construction site just outside the capital—a winding, broken stretch leading to a key trade town in the east.She knelt beside the workers, running her fingers through the packed dirt and gravel. “This path,” she said to a nearby foreman, “will be the spine of our kingdom.”He blinked, surprised at her presence, then bowed. “Then we’ll make sure it’s strong, Your Majesty.”As roadwork began, the kingdom watched. Villages previously isolated by floods or rough terrain saw the first signs of inclusion. Mercha
The project would take time—perhaps years—but its impact would begin in weeks.“Once the roads are in place,” Merrica said, entering her chamber with a report in hand, “we’ll be able to move goods faster, respond to crises quicker, and prepare for the second phase: economic zone development.”Helen took the report with a tired, but satisfied smile. “This… this they will see. This they will believe.”“And when they do,” Merrica said, “they’ll follow.”Late that night, as the wind howled against the palace windows, Helen stood in her private study, gazing out at the flickering torches lining the city streets. In her hand was a smooth, curved stone from the first road pile—just a plain stone, but to her, it was the beginning of a foundation.Her fingers closed around it as she whispered to herself, “Let this road lead us to a better kingdom.” And with that, the first steps into a new Hallerus had begun.The throne room had seen war plans, council betrayals, and royal declarations. But on
