"HOLD OFF!!..STAND YOUR GROUND!!..".(Xing)
It was a chaotic battle in front of The Eye Of Abyss the Level 6 Dungeon, the Dungeon was found about a few months ago by the Dungeon Explorations Division, according to the record it was the most difficult dungeon from in their list, it's all because of the Eye of The Beholder. 3 days ago the subjugation's of this dungeon were given out by the Black House with a top priorities, among the other dungeons only this one were given special attentions with 50 Special Forces were deployed to it.
2 days ago when Sergeant Xing who leads the Soldier's arrived at the dungeon, noticed that the Dungeons were already at Stage 3, it immediately shocked him and made him called the HQ right away, which then send a few reinforcements, about 100 soldiers and 200 Mercenary and Soldier who's in the nearby dungeons were rerouted to his place instead of going to their targets. Today despite Xing constantly sending teams
"HAHAHA!!…COME!!!..<SLASH!!!>..".'"<BUSSHII!>..KUAAARRGGHH!!..".I'm really enjoying the adrenaline right now, just like a fish in the water, every swing of my sword there will always be something dead. As I was diving forwards like a bullets through the flesh, I swung my swords horizontally and cut 10 monster to half.[Incoming Cursed attack from the front..]. (T.A.S)"<BOOMMM!!!>…SREEEEEEE!!!!..".Using a pebble that I picked up from the ground as a projectile, with a full power I throw it on The Eye of Beholder 20 meter on my right, the sheer power of my throws penetrate it's entire eye and comes out from its back instantly killing it.It was a hassle to be honest, I don't have any ranged attacks which hinders me from easily killing the oversized eye. I also can't detect their cursed attacks as it doesn't have any sign, not even
[Don't you want to create more technique?..]. (T.A.S)"Not really..I don't find any need to do so…. I just want this Thousand Cherry Blossom, other than that…nahh, what use to have hundreds of techniques when you barely use them..".I'm not like any average human that greedy for dozen of stuff, I'm someone who loved having the things that I need and the thing that I can use, the technique that I have chosen, is best suited my style and I rather want to be proficient at it. Sitting inside the tent that was just erected, I revised the squad roster as there are too many injured men in the medic tent, I need to enter the dungeon fast, for that, I decided to enter the dungeon with Corporal Alehandro the dwarf. I exit the tent and walk towards Sergeant Xing who in the middle of the campsite, busy arranging the work."Sergeant Xing, you handle the situations here..wait for the reinforcement to come and send back the injured to the New City..after
The Flash grenade goes off as we entered the Boss Room, A Single Alpha Minotaur stands in the middle of the room carrying a large crude stone ax, with a towering height of 3 meters and a robust muscular body, certainly, the Alpha Minotaur stood at the league of its own despite being a Threat Level 3 Monster. Still due to the surprised attack, instead of the normal troupe where it's going to bellow in anger, instead the Alpha Minotaur was screaming in agony and confusion as to the sudden overwhelming flash from the Flash grenade temporarily turn it blind."GGGUUOOOAAARRGGGHH!!!..". (Alpha Minotaur)The steroid cow was puzzled and angry at the same time, using its left hand to rub both of its eyes whilst it's right hand swinging its oversized stone ax around."Move to the right..aim for the vital area..go...[BANG!!]".I said to Corporal Alehandro who nodded at my command, we both move to the opposite directions while firing
"Anything?.."."The trail leads further..they stooped a few times probably encountering some monsters..". (Corporal Alehandro)Kneeling on the ground checking on the blood trail that comes from the boss room."Well looks like we found them...Still alive, Alehandro prepares for first aid…Damn that got done pretty bad..".After walking for about another 20 meters, I found 2 body huddle together on the side of the wall. As I got closer both of them were female adventurers, injured, one got a puncture wound on her left shoulder and the other one with silver hair loses her hand. Promptly after hearing my order, Alehandro put on the Barrier Stake covering all of us. I also moved the 2 adventurers and lay them apart from each other, then perform on the spot treatment to prevent their conditions got worsen than it already is.30 minutes passed, I was finally done treating both of them, seeing they got their Adventurer badge on them I run through the
"Boys we going deep and fast!..we are to re-supply on me every 2 floors!!..picked up the pace!!… Sergeant, what are the situations outside?.."."Everything is in control of sir...The Maidens have taken control of everything, Major Collen is the commanding officer..she also going to deploy the Soldier's inside..while, I brought all the Special Force with me…". (Sergeant Xing)It's true, right now we were actually advancing really fast, about 100 special force mowing through the floor killing every monster in sight. Honestly right now, we basically already got this dungeon under control, it doesn't matter if it's a boss or a normal mob, the firepower alone bore a hole to everything in a matter of seconds. I could just leave everything to my boys here, but since this is a rare chance for me to enjoy a few moments of hunting I actually wanted to see the final boss of this dungeon.After one hour we already on the 14th floor, right now all 100 members o
"SCATTER!!..<SWOSHH!!>…Annoying bastard got magic barrier…".Seeing the tide of battle started to tilt to our disadvantage, I had to step up my game. With the covering fire from Alehandro, I managed to advance. Still, the firepower of my rifle alone wasn't able to deal with the buffed succubus, I use my the Head Hunter once again and turn it into Cherry petals that cut everything in front of me, but as the petals reached the Elder Eye of Beholder, it was reflected by a magic Barrier.[That Barrier is a Level 4 Spell [Sheild of Force]..just like it's given name a Physical attack won't get past it..no matter how hard you hit…use Magic Attack Spell on it..it will get through..]. (T.A.S)"SHIT!....ANYONE WITH MAGIC ATTACK SPELL COME HERE!!..".What T.A.S said is true my petals can kill anything but due to the blasted barrier not a single tentacle was cut, frustrated I shouted at my squad, I knew at least someo
"There's no anomalies right?..".Even though the [Lust Overdrive] curse was self-explanatory from its names. I still decided to thoroughly check myself in the Aeternum Public Hospital, Sitting inside the VVIP ward on the 3rd floor, I was accompanied by Elijah and Rafaela."Nothing..everything is normal…[Lust Overdrive] is just a curse that will make you turned into a simply mindless lunatic for 1 full day, it's also will consume your life span each time the conditions triggered…the only way to avoid [Lust Overdrive] to take effect is simply by having a sexual discharged minimum once every 2 days….". (Rafaela)Reading on the medical report, in front of me and Elijah.It's not that difficult circumstance to be in actually, at the very least right now I have a reason to get laid, I don't see any problem if I'm here in Fantasma, but on earth, that is a whole different matter."...Didn't I said wait countless times already?..don't g
"Get the productions going at once…make sure to follow everything in the manual....Has the enchanter already worked on the Enchantment on the Airship Engine compartment?..".Yes, it doesn't happen, for some unavoidable matter. Elijah had to work and so is me, Since the material for the air balloon already obtained the whole production factory was focused on processing the materials. I can't wait to see my magical Airship flying in the sky, it won't be too long before it's happening, so I watching over the whole thing myself and supervise the first build myself."Yes, Sir…..the next step is to just attach the balloon and the body…". (Cheif Engineer Mikayla)The one who's responsible for this project is Chief Engineer Mikayla, One of Andrea's staff's most promising leaders, in her records she was a low-level mage that was put in slavery after being framed by his colleague when a magic experiment went wrong. She then ended up getting bought by
At Fort Steelward, a border outpost near the west, Angela’s Captain Cedric Durand stood alongside Aeternum’s Colonel Matthias Kael, watching as their combined forces executed a tactical drill.“You train your men well,” Captain Cedric admitted, watching as Aeternum’s soldiers swiftly took down training dummies with precise gunfire and coordinated tactics.Colonel Kael smirked. “Efficiency is key. We fight with strategy, discipline, and superior equipment.”Angela’s soldiers were still adjusting to Aeternum’s modernized warfare, but the results spoke for themselves. Crime rates near the border had dropped by 60% in just three months, and monster activity was at an all-time low.For Angela’s government, this was the best possible outcome. A safer nation meant a stronger economy, happier citizens, and more stability.In the halls of Angela’s Royal Palace, the nation’s ministers convened for a special meeting to discuss the growing partnership with Aeternum.“I must admit,” Minister Jean-
“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
