Fighting against an undead monster certainly has it's own dangers. In video games or movies, defeating an opponent which comes from the dark side a holy attack is required to make the fighting much more easier. The method of attacking a vital point also effective, such as bashing the heads, although I had my prejudice at how effective the movies and game method are, apparently the application in real life was effective.
The other thing needs to be addressed was, a real-life undead monster is really deadly, for example, a wraith or a specter, although the can't attack physically, the attack mainly affected their target mentality and soul, this ghost monster is very efficient at casting dark elemental magic and high-level curses. As for the zombie monster, their attack was a bit stronger also whenever they bit their enemies there's a chance a curse called [Turn undead] will be affected ton their victim systems, which mean the victim that affected with this virus will be dea{New Quest!!}{ Friend Of Wisp }{Deep inside the millennia-old Long Bark forest the Wisp of Spirit has always lived and dwell in peace. But recently there's something that disturbed the peace of this peace-loving being, find and eliminate the source of the disturbance.}{Reward: Flying Land plot.}{Penalty: Full wrath of the Lich & Curse of the Undead cast on your soul.}I carefully study the new quest that I gained a few seconds ago. It has been a long time since I got a quest issued to me, it is kinda exciting to get one, also the reward is something called 'Flying Land-Plot' which no matter how it sound, it was more than enough to pique my interest. Up until now, to be honest, I already have different thought of rewards, money wasn't something that can move me, I am more keen on receiving another ty
"What the frick?… this thing is just…spooky…I have never seen monster's like this…it looks like an undead, but not really…also what with the head?… they look like an octopus from the sea…hey Sasu, you know what this is?…". (Alehandro)After the whole battle was over, under my order, Alehandro dragged the dead corpse of one of the Seeds of the Deep Ones into our Campsite which the barrier has been closed."...beat me…the body compositions look like zombie…but according to my observation earlier..their reaction speed and action were more inclined to a ghoul…but for some reason, I think it's wasn't both…". (Sasu)Sasu or the Beaver clan as a whole, were now indeed the expert on Undead monster, now that they were provided with the knowledge from my database and modern knowledge, the Beaver clan has 2 important roles in Aeternum, one is the provider of super-agent that all
Although at first the aim for this exploration was to find the Lich, somehow after getting the mission/Quest from T.A.S the objectives have changed to save as many Wisp of Spirit I can. Luckily, I don't really need to work hard to keep the Wisp safe, because for some unknown and mysterious reason whenever we find a Wisp, it would naturally fly to me and follow me around. As if I was some kind of magnet, the Wisp will always float around me and will not separate themselves away."With this many Wisp around…, we should just forget about going covert…". (Sasu)He grumbles as he pokes at the ball of harmless fire that hovers around him."Still, at least we don't have to worries about not wondering in the dark…with these hundreds of these little guys around it feels like we got a portable spotlight to illuminate our way…". (Alehandro)On the other side, Alehandro feels like he was some kid that just fascinated at the
As we walk further and further into the woods, along the way we have saved countless Wisp of Spirit that we encountered along the way. As well as saving the defenseless Wisp of Spirit that seemingly knowing their way towards me, we also have killed an uncountable amount of both undead monsters and the Seed of the Deep Ones.One thing that we certain for sure is that we are closing in on the Undead Lich and probably the Dynasty Altar. Because the numbers and the frequency of undead monsters that we encounter have been largely in numbers and often comes towards us. on the other hand, The Seed of the Deep Ones already almost got to the point of non-existence."Hold…Sasu go get the vantage points…I feel that we are getting closer to the Lich and the Dynasty Altar…".I stopped the track, as I realize that the ground surfaced has gotten more solids and flat as if it was regularly used to move around. In the glance of my sight I also se
"Can't we just get our own corpse bag?…I mean, why do we both have to use one?..". (Alehandro)"so that the chance's of us getting separated were lowered…also both of you were small, so it's better to use just one…or do you want to go around and hunt for another hour?…No right?..so shut up and just stay still in there…".The plan to enter the Tower was fairly simple and easy. It was simply being smuggled in by the undeads, after carefully observing the undead movements for about 2 hours or so, I have discovered that undead will be going out from the town to find a fresh corpse to be brought back, the corpse then will be brought directly to the tower doorstep, and then it would be revived by the Lich, just so the undeads numbers will continued to stabilize and maintained.The undeads was simply doesn't have any capability of intellect, it's only hunt and roaming around, even the Wraith, Zombies and Ghoul, which I con
"Psst..slowly..". As I've already the only one who's outside the carcass, I help Sasu and Alehandro opened up their hiding place. Both of them slowly crawl out from the Boar monster carcass and also kneel on the ground. The Undeads horde outside doesn't know where we were, because of thanks to the placing of the carcass we were hidden from the outside views.After we were ready to move, I looked at the tower, surprisingly the tower does not have an entrance door. The entrance was just opened up for anyone to enter without any resistance at all, seeing both of them ready to move, I take the lead and enter the tower.We all move in silence, the inside of the tower was very dark, but thanks to our night vision goggle, traversing what normally hard for normal people was easy for us. The ground floor of the tower has nothing, it was just an empty floor, devoid of any objects, no moss, no debris, nothing. Seeing there's no resistance to us, I continued le
Our discreet ascend the tower continues slowly after getting passed the 2ndfloor which we named a freezer, the next floor which is the 3rd
“...ohh~ well, for a Lich you definitely does not match the usual descriptions of the Overlord of Death…”.For certain the Lich before me was different from what I expected. It is much more appropiate to called him a well mannered uncle rather than an Overlord of Death.
“Attention citizens of the Free Nation,” a cheerful voice echoed across cobblestone streets, “this is an international broadcast. In four weeks’, time, the UNA Summit will commence in New City, Aeternum. Thirty-one proud nations will stand together under one flag of progress, cooperation, and shared security. We celebrate an era of peace—an age of unity…”The words echoed like thunder in the council chamber.Outside, people paused to listen. While many among the elite scowled and turned away, others in the lower districts paused, curious. Some even smiled. The promise of unity, safety, and growth was seductive—especially to the common folk, burdened by Triangle Guild’s centuries of unchecked power and exorbitant fees.Kennedy noticed it. “Look at them… even our own people are considering it.”“They’re weak,” Carn muttered. “They don’t understand what’s at stake.”Alphonse’s brow furrowed. “Or maybe they do. Maybe they’re tired of being bled dry by guild taxes and levies. Aeternum gave
In New City, President Kaiser Mies Sai met with his advisors. The room buzzed with discussions about the upcoming summit and the potential threats from dissenting nations.Advisor Elena: "Mr. President, intelligence reports suggest increased propaganda from the Principality. They aim to discredit the summit and our initiatives."President Mies: "We anticipated resistance. Our focus remains on unity and progress. Let their words be drowned by the chorus of cooperation and shared prosperity."The President's resolve was clear. The UNA would not be deterred by the dissent of those clinging to outdated and oppressive ideologies.As the summit drew nearer, the world watched with bated breath. Supporters of the UNA saw it as a beacon of hope and collaboration, while detractors viewed it as a threat to their traditional power structures.In the Principality of Light, the Church intensified its rhetoric, urging its followers to resist the UNA's influence. Yet, whispers of dissent emerged even
The Ministry of Infrastructure has begun preparations to reroute major traffic corridors to accommodate the anticipated diplomatic convoys and foreign delegates. The Ministry of Culture is also curating a week-long cultural exposition to showcase Aeternum’s diversity and progress.President Mies’ spokesperson confirmed that multiple major policy announcements are expected during the summit’s plenary sessions, including topics rumored to include:Official designation of the Aeternum Credit as the UNA’s preferred trade currency. Establishment of the UNA Education Oversight Bureau. Expansion of continental transport infrastructure, and. Strengthened defense cooperation under UNA guidelinesNo foreign media has yet been granted interview access to the President ahead of the summit, but sources within the Black House suggest the upcoming event is being viewed as “a generational turning point.”"The world is watching. The people are ready. And in five weeks’ time, New City will become more
Aeternum would continue to offer education, security, and infrastructure assistance—but always in a way that ensured we maintained our lead.We would teach them how to build schools, but we would own the publishing rights to the most advanced textbooks. We would help them create local militias, but they would still call for Aeternum troops when true threats loomed.We would help them modernize, industrialize, prosper—but they would know, always know, that Aeternum had already blazed the trail further ahead. I didn’t want vassals. I wanted allies who could never quite catch up—because they didn’t need to. They needed us to lead.I rose from my chair and walked toward the window. New City stretched into the horizon, its shining towers and clean streets proof of what discipline and vision could achieve.If left alone, the world would fall back into darkness. If left to their own devices, these medieval kings and nobles would tear each other apart again. The future needed guardians. The U
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
