“Sure, Marlo….I hope that the others were also able to settle down as well?..”.“Yes, they are, Your Highness….all of the Apprentices has resume their duty as per your order…all of us has reached every single settlements in the Eastern and Southern Region….and hence, smoothing the transition of our proceeding even more….”.(Marlo)It is great to hear that all the apprentice that I saved are already getting comfortable in their new job. Old Marlo sure is enjoying his life now, he is even fuller now than when I meet him last time.“Good….so, how about the rest of the apprentice in the other 3 region?…have you managed to get in contact with them?..”.“Umm….about that, your Highness…..Actually…I do obtained news about them…all of them….but…unfortunately…”.(Marlo)Somehow Old Marlo expression turned sour at this moment, and he was visibly turned his head down to avert a direct eye contact with me. Surely it was a bad news, but I can’t always act like I know and predict everything so it is b
“Hmm?…unfortunately what? Marlo?…talk..”.“Un..unfortunately, Your Highness….only half of our Apprentices left alive…in that remaining 3 regions…..all that were dead were either be hunted by the recently came in power nobles, and being used by them as the war slaves….200 people….all died…your highness…”.(Marlo)It was visibly painful for him to say that, after all they were his comrade and colleague, who trained with him when they were appointed as apprentices, and now they were all dead. Everyone kept their silence as well, weighing the weight of the somber situation at the moment, as for me, I am very annoyed right now, because I have lost 200 trained and dedicated apprentices, those that I left in this land to help it prosper and advanced, yet all that effort goes down in a drain.“...Sigh~….you see that Holgun….200 people….200 People!!!..I trained them…guided them….all for the benefits of this land…the last time, before I left this land peacefully…I have the correct people left be
“...Sigh~….you see that Holgun….200 people….200 People!!!..I trained them…guided them….all for the benefits of this land…the last time, before I left this land peacefully…I have the correct people left behind so that everything will be fine…..and yet…look….instead of having these trained people be in the lead….these bastards of a nobles…punished them and make an example of them!…..That..That act alone already shows everyone just how stupid they are..how they undeserved to be in the throne…All my efforts were wasted by those people…Wasted!..”.Frustrated, and angry is what I vented out right now. Holgun on my side just nodding all the way, and he too shared the same sentiment as me, in fact every single person here felt the same as well.“This people doesn’t know how to be grateful, Your Highness….they only think about themselves….as for the others..the are more than comfortable to leave them dies in a ditch somewhere….Yet often times, they always pride themselves as classy and highbo
“This people doesn’t know how to be grateful, Your Highness….they only think about themselves….as for the others..the are more than comfortable to leave them dies in a ditch somewhere….Yet often times, they always pride themselves as classy and highborn…whilst labeling Demi-Human as barbaric and mindless….Hmph!…That is why, Sir…it is the best if we just rule these entire land….”.(Holgun Iron Horn)“I agreed, Your Highness…under Aeternum….only with your rule and guidance shall this land prosper…”.(Marlo)“I guess..that was for the best…correct?..”.“Naturally, Your Highness..”.(Holgun Iron Horn)It was true that I am a bit emotional just a few seconds ago, but at the same time I added a flair of dramatic a little bit, just so it was relatable to everyone, and thankfully it did, as I can see that everybody eyes were flaming with passion and support for me and Aeternum.“.…Now that thy have eradicated half of our Apprentices…we can’t let the survivor suffered any longer….Holgun…Prepared
“It will be as you command, Your Highness..”.(Holgun Iron Horn)“Oh…Your Highness….Th..Thank you..”.(Marlo)On the contrary to the Hyped up Holgun, Old Marlo as well as all the other staffs around us were all jus simply agape with touched and emotional, as I tasked the Special Forces to saved the remaining apprentices. Certainty from their point of view, it seems that I am just too kind hearted and magnanimous, to go to such length to save a few common people, that isn’t worth much at all, it was the kind of things that no nobles, leaders or even monarch wanted to do, and the people of this era already got used to this type of thing, the lesser people got abandoned. But me on the other hand, actually ordering our elite forces to save these ‘lesser’ people, is a surprising moves and certainly a controversial ones. Whilst in reality at this point, perhaps only me knows that those ‘lesser’ common people, to me is much more worth it than any nobles.Since the side plan were already agreed
Since the side plan were already agreed upon as soon as I touched the ground, naturally it was time to discussed it in detailed in a more appropriate locations, which naturally not on the tarmac of an Airport. The Airport in the Alemia Region naturally were this one, I actually have them finished it before I go back, in fact it was the first construction project that I begin as soon as Sunders City were fallen in my hands. This Airport were located just outside the city adjacent to the Government District of the City. It is not a large airport at all, just a small one, that are capable of holding 10 Airship landing at one time, small, but it is already enough and sufficient. My plans were to make sure that every region have their own Airport, and thus easing the commune for everyone, after all, Aeternum had to look different from every other nation in these Continent.“...The city looks even better down here, Holgun….the changes is very apparent…”.As we left the airport and headed t
“...The city looks even better down here, Holgun….the changes is very apparent…”.As we left the airport and headed to my new estate/office, naturally we passed through the city. And honestly the view of the city is very positive, it van be said that only about 10% of the old visage of the city still remained. It was intentionally kept this was just for a vibes and historical values only, meanwhile the entire infrastructure and the utility of the city has changed completely. We just kept the remnant of the old looks here and there, the things that were older were intentionally kept just for aesthetic value. The rest it was completely overhauled.“I have all the roads in the city to be completed first…luckily the citizens here learned fast to no longer use the road the same way the always did…thanks to that we have less traffic accident than before….and the city beauty were preserved..”.(Holgun Iron Horn)“Good Work…the people had to know the difference, so that everything will be in i
“Good Work…the people had to know the difference, so that everything will be in it’s place…”.As always, the people of medieval ear do find it hard to use the sidewalk and learned it, after all, just like in any Aeternum city and towns, roads is just for vehicles only, things like this is still baffled them, but thanks to them already knows that, things were looking organized.“By the way…hows is the economy going for both territories…I assumed that both have recovered somehow..right?..”.“Yes it is, Sir…..yesterday the report came from the Pearl City…Admiral Duchess Kolarova and the Navy has already stabilized the region…and already started to recover everything….but, Sir…in the midst of us trying to recover the economic sector….we have discovered an unsettling news…”.(Holgun Iron Horn)As I were taking off my coat, inside of my office, I were a little bit shocked to here that, at this point there were even an unsettling news, when there were supposed to be none.“Unsettling news?…wh
