In an instant, people started to paying more attentions at what is happening, some were voicing their discontent on the many social media and website, and even many that voiced the worries for the couple, then also many expressed their astonishment for the manly act by the president.“What is going on?!..gunshots in the middle of Seoul downtown?!….is the city turned lawless nowdays?..what is going on right now??..”. (President Park Gun Yang)The president that watched the show, were visibly upsets by this. Shocked but still have his eyes on the TV screen the whole time. Meanwhile the Chief Secretary, who also shocked by this, have tak
Everyone were wondering just how did everything just come to this. Why would such things happened to a city that nowadays known all over the world to have some of the lowest crime rates and also there were supposed to be no guns or even firearms related incident happening especially inside the Seoul downtown. For the Korea Citizen such things when happened live inside the TV they who live at the same country felt a little bit unsafe, to the viewers online it was also bringing them discomfort. After all, perhaps this was one of the kind shows, where a public shooting actually captured right in the middle of it’s currently happening.The entire situation brought many to concerns. For the CBC CEO Choi Chae Ri, after getting the warning from Chairwoman Catherine, she knew that at this time, President Mies Sai, can never die, especially in her company shows, somehow she had to make sure that the President will be safe and sound, and on the other part, she had to make sure that this inciden

Everyone were holding their breath at what is currently going on, it was shocking how the scene happened. Thanks to his warning, everyone got to be safe, even the curious writer were unhurt because of him, he actually put himself in danger for this and protecting those that were close by to him. The scene of him not even faze, in front of a dangerous situations baffled and impressed everyone that is currently tuned in into the show.“Oh my god!!…what the heck!..a gunshots happened, glasses flying all over the places, the guy didn’t even flinch!!!…That’s a man right there!…right there!!..”. (Candice Allaway)Back in the States, California Los Channel, or CLC had already got connected with the CBC in Korea and currently become the main TV channel that is currently reporting live on the news regarding the cu
No one could have anticipate that such things of violence could happened. And on top of that it happened on a live TV and then garner a loot of attention both from inside the country and also all over the world. The gravity of the situations has become so severe in a matter of minutes and also the entire Korea government were feeling the heat of it, especially for those government employees that were task to maintained the order of the Kangnam Area, where the cafe were and also the filming were taken places. To the normal people of Korea, such things had never taken place before.Such incident of ignorance and neglect is unprecedented. Yes, there were often times a delay due to bureaucracy which is normal, but to see, such incident happened and there were almost to no reactions, this is something else. By then, not only the news outlets had made their deductions about this, but also the public had also made up their minds as to why such things happened. It was rather simple and strai
With the entire world watching by now probably, I can feel that many people can’t seat down properly at the moment. By now everyone should have understand Virtue Financial values and also mine, as for my moves to make sure that every single person that watches the shows understand just how big this incident were, I am sure they already glued to it, and I am sure that without me even do anything, many people would like to dig everything about this incident and how it come to be and who is responsible for this. With any given times, I am sure that White Star Entertainment ploy will be uncovered.As of right now, my unplanned bloody injuries will surely served as something that made people can’t take their eyes of me. By now they knew that there will be a lot of people that will try to get on Virtue Financial good side, as for the Korea Government, I am sure right now, Catherine were handling them like a pro. Even right now, my phone is vibrating in my pocket, and I am sure that some imp
The situations outside compared to what everyone thought, it was actually significantly better than what I have thought, I presumed due to several minutes of delays, perhaps there were already someone that get’s harmed from the gangsters violence. But surprisingly not, significant numbers of people had already save themselves by running away from these place. But still right at these moment, there were still people here that somehow, perhaps stunned silly by the sudden changes of atmosphere from celebrations to violence.On top of all the fan girls that were mostly from young adults to these high school students. There were also a numbers of photographers and journalist that decided that it was a good idea to take pictures and videos of these violent incident up close. As a result, thanks to their stubbornness of not wanting to budge, about 3 person have been injured, all of them were getting hacked by a machete by the gangsters before being saved by my security teams. Thankfully, Par
Seeing that the door to the Cafe had finally been opened, people see hope to safety once again, and even more calming and felt safe, is when their ideal man were there in front of them helping them out. The scene of Virtue Financial President, on the scene actually carrying people in and out the cafe, despite he himself already bloodied and hurt touched, the Mies Fan club member even more. Today they thought that it was just a day for them to finally meet their favourite man, who would’ve thought that these man would also be the one that save them right now.“Those that were hurt…sit on the right side..those who are fine on the left side…stay calm everybody!!…the help is coming!…Manager…give everyone a tea or something…to calm them down…”.I don’t let the situations calms down for a moment. Right now, the ground floor of the cafe were big enough to shelter these much of people. Also the cafe staff already clear the floor and set all the tables and chair to the side to make room for th
I supposed no one could anticipate how this show could turned out like, I am sure that everyone were looking forward for me being introduced along with Hwa Young and someone with a lovely love line. But on the very first day of recording and live show, while the show had to end in a single hour, but now, the recording had entered 1 hour and 40 minutes, yet the show were still live and undergoing. I know this because T.A.S had been ringing inside my head telling me that right now, the show had already gotten the highest rating that a television show had ever recorded and we are currently trending all over the world.“Everything going to be okay…your injury were not that bad..you probably have to get a few stitches on your thigh…but that was about it..you’re going to be okay..”.I’m not really feel challenged by all this injury that these fans had, most of them had just a few scratch and bleed a little bit, the worst that I treat were just this college girl before me, she only have a si
A trusted royal scribe—a man who had served the palace for over a decade—was found dead before sunrise. A dagger coated in poison was discovered strapped to his leg. The second attempt followed soon after.A servant carrying tea for the Queen was intercepted before she could enter the throne room. Hidden beneath the silver tray was a vial of deadroot extract, a lethal poison. The servant, after interrogation, confessed that her family had been taken hostage by nobles who ordered the hit.Then came the third, fourth, and fifth attempts. Archers on rooftops. Explosives set along the Queen’s carriage route. Blades hidden in the folds of a courtier’s robes.Each time, the assassins failed. Each time, they disappeared without a trace. Helen knew who was behind it. But rather than show fear, she faced the storm head-on.Seated in her war room, Helen traced her fingers along a map of Hallerus, where red ink circled enemy strongholds. Duke Merrica stood beside her, arms folded, his sharp eyes
Aeternum had taught her a valuable lesson—control is not about force, but manipulation. So, she would make them turn on each other.Helen began summoning the nobles one by one, speaking to them in private meetings. She whispered honeyed words into their ears.“Viscount Talis, I need a reliable man. Duke Rehn is plotting against me, and I require your loyalty.”“Countess Ferros, your influence is invaluable. I fear Duke Rehn is siphoning funds, and I need someone I trust to investigate.”“Duke Rehn, the other nobles are moving against you. You must act swiftly before they remove you from power.”With every meeting, seeds of distrust were sown.The nobles—drunk on greed—were too blind to see that they were being played.And so, one by one, they began to conspire against each other.As the nobles scrambled to destroy each other, Helen’s true loyalists made their move.Under the cover of darkness, handpicked assassins carried out eliminations with precision.Duke Rehn?Found dead in his s
“Then Mies will destroy Hallerus.”Helen turned sharply toward him. “You think he would go that far?”Merrica didn’t even hesitate. “Yes.”Helen stared at him, searching for a lie. A hint of hesitation. But there was none.“He will not give you mercy a second time, Helen,” Merrica said. “If those nobles push for war, if they even dare to challenge Aeternum—you will lose.”He took another step forward, his voice heavy. “And I will not be able to protect you.”For the first time in their conversation, Helen looked away. Merrica saw it. The fear. The realization.She already knew everything he was saying was true. She had just been too proud—too trapped—to admit it.Silence hung between them. Then, at last, Helen spoke.“…What do you want me to do?”Merrica finally allowed himself a small sigh of relief.“You already know what must be done, Helen,” he said gently. “You must take back your court.”Helen slowly nodded, though her expression remained grim. “Those nobles will not leave peace
“Merrica understands that if Hallerus moves against Aeternum, we won’t hold back.”Kasuma gave a knowing smirk. “And you won’t hesitate to destroy them.”I met her gaze, unblinking.“No.”A heavy silence fell between us.Kasuma leaned forward, her voice softer but firm. “You don’t want war with Hallerus.”“No, I don’t,” I admitted. “The people of Hallerus don’t deserve to suffer for their queen’s mistakes. Merrica doesn’t deserve to be put in that position.”Kasuma studied me for a moment before sighing. “Then let’s hope Duke Merrica succeeds.”I ran a hand through my hair, my thoughts swirling. Visma was controlled. Chaos was their prison, and we held the keys. Hallerus, however, was different.It was once an ally, a friend, a brother. But betrayal had shattered that bond. Still… I didn’t want to be the one to crush it completely. I drummed my fingers on my desk. If Helen could be saved, then perhaps—A knock interrupted my thoughts.“Enter,” I called.An ACIA officer stepped in, bowi
The Merchant Guild Leader, Darvio Vinn, who had profited the most from blocking Aeternum trade. His warehouses stored inferior goods at premium prices, keeping the economy strangled in his grip.The General of the Royal Army, Lionel Ferin, who had bled the treasury dry with excessive military spending, preaching about “independence” while weakening their forces with outdated tactics.They had to be removed. One by one, quietly, without causing suspicion. But how? Merrica could not simply accuse them—Helen trusted them. If he moved too boldly, she would see him as the enemy.No, he had to be careful. He had to play the game. Merrica stood, pouring himself another glass of wine. He would begin by exposing the corruption—turning the people against the parasites that fed on Hallerus.The merchants would learn how Darvio Vinn had been overpricing basic goods. The military officers would see how General Lionel Ferin had been wasting funds on obsolete strategies. The court would hear whisper
At a local tavern, I overheard a group of soldiers drunkenly complaining."Our weapons are old.""Our rations taste like pig slop.""Did you hear? Even Alemia is receiving Aeternum goods now.""We should have never broken ties."I smirked. They knew. Their queen had failed them, and their nation was falling behind while the rest of the world thrived under Aeternum’s soft power. The people of Hallerus were not fools. They saw the rising prosperity of the allied nations, the luxurious goods, the technological marvels, the entertainment, the food. They could only watch in envy.At sunset, I met with Duke Merrica Murrs at his estate. His once-proud posture had been replaced with exhaustion. His eyes, which once held confidence, now carried deep regret.We sat in his grand study, the silence stretching between us. Finally, he spoke."I should have stopped her."I said nothing."I vouched for her. I believed in her." He exhaled, shaking his head. "And now, my people suffer because of my mis
Meanwhile, in Yulga, Maria sat comfortably in her study, reading the latest reports.Lysander stood beside her, amused. "Another assassin failed. This is getting predictable."Maria smirked. "Vismal thinks he’s playing chess, but he’s only moving pawns."She set down her glass, her eyes gleaming with amusement. "Let him keep trying. Let him think he has control.""And when he finally realizes he doesn’t?" Lysander asked.Maria leaned back, exhaling softly. "By then, he won’t be king anymore."While King Vismal wasted his energy plotting assassinations, he failed to see the true danger.His nobles squabbled over the black market. His people secretly craved Aeternum goods. His own soldiers whispered of defecting.Visma was rotting from the inside out. And Maria? She simply watched it happen. She wasn’t just controlling the black market. She was controlling Visma’s fate. One failed assassination at a time.King Vismal III believed he could eliminate Maria Yulga. He believed he could take
"Oi, you got the stuff?""Yeah, yeah, keep it down!"A merchant nervously looked around before handing over a carefully wrapped package."This is the good stuff—straight from Aeternum. Papa Pizza’s special cheese blend. Got it from a merchant who knows a guy who knows a guy."The buyer, a Visma noble in disguise, snatched it eagerly."Finally! I’ve been dying to try this! You have no idea how boring Visma’s food is compared to Aeternum’s cuisine!""Yeah, yeah, pay up first.""Fine, fine—how much?""Two hundred gold pieces."The noble nearly choked. "T-Two hundred?! That’s robbery!"The merchant smirked. "And yet, you’re still going to pay it, aren’t you?"The noble gritted his teeth, but handed over the money anyway. Aeternum’s products were so desirable that people were willing to spend fortunes just to get a taste.And that was exactly what ACIA wanted. By controlling the underground economy, Aeternum achieved multiple goals:Economic Control – Even though Visma banned Aeternum’s pr
The people were asking too many questions. The smugglers were getting bolder. Even their own guards and soldiers were caught listening to Aeternum’s broadcasts in secret. A revolution wasn’t just coming—it was being broadcast live.In an attempt to regain control, the non-allied nations did the only thing they knew how to do—They cracked down. Massive raids were conducted in the dead of night. Entire villages were searched. Merchants were arrested. Radios were smashed in public squares.But no matter how many products they confiscated, no matter how many smugglers they punished, it didn’t stop. Aeternum’s influence was already too deep. The people had tasted the forbidden fruit—and they weren’t about to let go of it.What made matters worse was that not everyone in power was loyal to the cause. Behind closed doors, even high-ranking nobles were secretly buying Aeternum’s products for themselves. Some were sneaking off to allied territories under the guise of “diplomatic visits” just s
