The day passes by without too much hectic on my side, though at the moment the news were going crazy about my small interview moment they not even affected me at all, or even Virtue Financial, in fact, Virtue Financial popularity has steadily increased with every single hour passes. Any companies that has Virtue Financial touches on it, the stock would rise in the stock market, be it, inside Korea stock market, Asia, Europe and even at the US. Everything just proceeds more that normal, when many thought that Virtue Financial will received some kind rebuttal or repercussion that might reflected on damaging Virtue Financial, nothing really happened.“Manganese Arms shares rise again by 20%…all of the company that we invested in in the recent 6 months..all of them received a massive publicity boosts…..also..here, US Post release these today..look at the headlines…”. (Catherine)“Virtue Financial Owner is Seeking justice for people and criticizing the government….well, she put that headli
“For that Prosthetic Limbs…Our researchers and medical experts has finished the test, and configurations of the entire thing…also, clinical test has been performed…all of them functions normally and as intended…so…no problem there…we have also passed the FDA and also been approved by WHO…and every single Medical Test and certificate in the world…all of them has passed without any problems…”. (Catherine)I have expected that my product can passed every single test there is to passed.by now I am sure that it can already be mass manufacture and produced for distributions and use. But at the end of Catherine sentences, she seems a little bit concerned.“...if it’s ready…then isn’t it a good thing?..Why are you looking concern like these?…is something bothering you?..…Come in…”.Before Catherine could say anything, my door were knocked, and it was Park Zuo Yung that comes in. And behind her is Mariah Mills, Miss Park brought Mariah in and then close the door back.“Mariah…i
“...okay..okay..I got it..can you both please calm down a little bit for now?..”.Both of them is a very independent woman with a strong personality. And at times things can progress to these, after all, both side has the truth and also correctness to their respective opinion. With me as the middle man in these and also the one that will make the final decission, naturally the outcome will lies with me.“First of all…Cathy…what is the offer..and how much money can we make out of these deal?..”.“Sir!..you can’t be thinking about that right?!…”. (Mariah Mills)“Calm down…I am just asking here right?..”.Mariah settle down, after all despite her being on the edge, I am just asking the questions here, also, if anyone can decide what we were going to do about the Prosthetic Limbs I were the one that have the right because I am the owner and also the creator of that project.“2 hundred Billion dollar, collectively…from all the offers…which includes the entire world…on top of that a continu
Since I have come out and stated the Virtue Financial stance on the entire issue, it was to be expected that there will be some repercussion. Hence I told Catherine to hold a meeting to tell everyone the backup plans for it, thank fully when she hold the meeting a few days ago, no one were against it and everyone agreed to whatever arrangement that we made. On the contrary of what many thought that Virtue Financial were in panic mode, we are actually quite in peace, everything just went back to normal days at works for everyone. So right now, I am rather in peace, despite sometimes when the news plays out, I am always entertained by it.Instead of Virtue Financial just became passive and defensive, not many knows that we weren’t affected at all, so despite all of these, all of Virtue Financial were still working, right here in the Virtue Island, the inner circle all decided to work from just here. Also, Bang Dae Jung and Marcuez Vega right now, has basically done the first round of ha
The promised day has come for the Neko Games Seoul Branch. Or rather it has been renamed to Neko Games Special Team, which also shocked both Hannah Johnson and Jason Lee, when they talked to Renosuke Kenichi, their boss and also the founder of Neko Games Studio, they come to learn that the real owner of the company, which is President Mies Sai was the reason why their Branch were known to be that way. Renosuke and the other Branch director labeled them in such way, because no one dared to touch them, because of all the teams and branches that existed, theirs were the only one that go the assignment from the man himself.To both Hannah Johnson and Jason Lee, only until now, that they finally realize that their existence is much more important, than a lot of the other branches, because the worked for the owner himself, despite them not doing much of anything aside from completing the task that were given to them. On their minds, they felt lucky, after all, the President weren’t someone
“Thank god..we took care of that carefully..if not…we might get fired for that..”. (Nathan VVIP Bodyguard Second team)“Told you…we handled that, real good…”. (Gates Guard No.2)As the car passed the gates, for the Front gate guards, that incident just now really woke them up. After all that just now were a potential for them to lose their jobs, if they so much of handling that badly. Luckily the ever so stern madam Chairwoman were the one that save their hides these time. For Hannah and Jason, both of them were relief that they meet with their one time acquaintance that they once know a year ago, they know Catherine and who she is, because they after they were recruited, they meet her once for introductions session and their contract signing. Also both Hannah and Jason, or rather the entire Office knew her husband Ken, as Ken were their friends and also a rather influential figure in the Cosplaying world.“Thanks for the help Madam Catherine…I was worried that we might not able to
I were changing my clothes, when Butler Bang knocked on my door and tell me that, Neko Games finally come and bringing me the finished design. He also tells me about their little ordeal to get here, funny enough that’s is typical of them, after all they were both introverts, things like that happened. Both of them were waiting downstairs for me, together with Catherine who in the middle of having a breakfast. By now, Catherine eating at my Mansion is already a normal occasions, sometimes the whole gang just decided to eats here. I don’t really mind as they made the Mansion more lively, and the kitchen staff loves it, after all, I’m not the kind that frequently eats and i rarely just goes and wolf down anything. After getting dressed, I came down to the dining room and greeted by the scenes of Catherine at the table with Hannah Johnson and Jason Lee, currently having their cup of coffee.“Mies…They’re here..”. (Catherine)“Oh thanks…where’s Ken?..”.“At home…I come here for work…you kn
I can’t lie, to say that I wasn’t excited for today, would be nothing but lie, I am really excited to see what is the final design for everything that will shape and truly became the symbols and also the images of Aeternum from here on out.I have given Jason and his entire office times for them to do just about everything they wanted without putting any pressure on them. And so far, from before none of their works has displeased me or even made me disagree on their idea, sure there’s some aspect that can be improved, still, they take notes on my input and then redesigned it to make it even better. Now the day has come for me to see, What Aeternum is about to be and what are the new faces will be. The first reviews on the table is The designed for Aeternum cities, all 6 of the Major Cities in Aeternum including Eloesa City.“First Up, we got the new design for…Aeternum Capital City..The New City…Since these city were in fact the first city ever built In Aeternum and also the Foundation
I knew what was at stake. We had to uphold this example. We had to show, beyond doubt, that the age of “Human First” was over.That the only supremacy left was the supremacy of character. Wisdom. Unity. Vision. And if we could carve that truth into the very soul of the UNA—if we could bury the old hatreds under libraries, not graves—then maybe, just maybe, this world could finally, finally leave its chains behind.I stood up from my chair, moving to the window. Out there, the city pulsed—an endless, living testament to what was possible when walls were torn down, not built higher. I closed my eyes for a moment. I didn’t want to be remembered as the conqueror of nations. I wanted to be remembered as the architect of a new era.One where no child was born inferior. One where no citizen was condemned by the shape of their ears or the color of their skin or the tail on their back. One where power didn’t mean oppression—but opportunity.Aeternum would be the beacon. And the UNA? The vessel
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
