Thought the name of that special agent, does pique my memories a little bit, as her name were quite familiar for some reason, but after thinking about, it was hard for me to recollect anything. Maybe I meet her before, as to when and how, I don’t know, for now such things doesn’t matter anyway, I need to get to a secluded place now, and checked the situations back in Aeternum.
Outsied the Jet, On the Tarmac.
“They are certainly fast….and quite accommodating..Flora, how everything?..”. (Catherine Kent)
The moment, Catherine and the other got out from the plane, they were greeted by loud cheers from the crowds just a few hundred meters away. The entire Airport and also the outside, all the way to the roads nearest to the Airport peoples were crowded, shouts, cheers and clapping celebrating their arrivals were so overwhelming that Catherine and the other were having
“It was him….”. (Special Agent Lily O’Malley)She uttered under her breath, to her this is a big matter and after all this years she has finally find her saviour, Lily O’Malley is a strong willed woman, this find of her does meant any ill intent on her side, in fact she wanted to settle her life debt to the man. For years she inquiry about the man, everyone kept their silence about him, now she has finally find him, all with her own effort.“Get everyone ready…we leave as soon as they ready on their side…Chief Deputy Tommy, could tell your men to also get ready..it’s seems that they were ready to move at any moment now..”. (Special Agent Lily O’Malley)“As you said so, Special Agent O’Malley…but, is everything okay with them?…I mean did they mentions anything?…you know…anything about me?…”. (Chi
Only Tanya Kate were the one who shocked that I was just suddenly wake up. On the other hand Mariah Mills were quite calm, though she was a little bit surprised, still she was able to suppressed the feeling, but her minor change in expression wasn’t something that can passed my eyes.“Isabella…the blinds..close it..”.“Sure…there…is there anything you need?…it’s been a long day for me…I want to get to bed now..”. (Isabella Marcos)“Hmm?..sure, go ahead..get some rest…on your way out tell Catherine and the others to do the same thing as well…Thank you for your hard work..”.I understand this has been a long day for everyone involved. Naturally I would give everyone the time to rest themselves, because at this point, I can do everything myself, also they were not the only people that worked for me.&
“...You know…I have never seen, a person as attractive as you..Sir~…and your looks were to enchanting..even to a woman of my age…but are you also as manly as your charm..”. (Tanya Kate)Tanya were still contemplating deep down, but she herself can’t stop and can’t help but continuously fallen into Mies charm. His looks, his body were just her ideal perfect man to tame her, as a matter of fact she wanted to be tamed by him, regardless of her insecurities because of Mies status and looks and her status and age. She basically right now testing her limits with her boss, yet she feels that she can’t stop now, the tension is brewing to much and she doesn’t want to stop no matter what, she wanted to become his, she wanted him to tame her. And truthfully by the looks of it and from Mies reactions, she had the chances for this relationship to perhaps even developed further.“...Am I?&hell
Getting praised and were vastly approved despite me doesn’t even worked hard enough to pushed it, was certainly unexpected, but still it felt very good. I have a thought before to mainstream The Virtue out to the markets but seeing that everything going in the path of becoming a unique style of brand that serve exclusivity and grandeur elegance, I felt that there’s nothing wrong with this kind of style. Maybe this will even made many got crazy about it and further served as a common sense and a feature of The Virtue that differentiate it to any other brand in the world.The entire afternoon all the way to the evening, I spent undisturbed and alone. Perhaps everyone were tired and even took an initiative to make sure that I have a good and enough rest.Even Mariah and Tanya only comes to deliver some files to me and also my strawberry pies and then left accordingly. I didn’t revised the files yet, and left them aside, as It was rare for me to hav

(Ran Hyun Ok)After sending Catherine to save Melissa Hernandez in Arizona, The rest that in the car with her, Marcuez Vega, Sharon Jackson, Ran Hyun Ok and Helena Mendoza, headed straight to my hospital room. Since then all of us were busy discussing our plan to crack open Gusto Energy Corporation, then of course we do have our new member of the circle, which is Mariah Mills. Tanya Kate and
“Get in contact with her…secretly….anyone wants to do this?…”.“Let me do it…I want to see how this Stephanie really looks like…”. (Marcuez Vega)“Then…I’m counting on you…make this happen…Mariah, delayed Antoine Gusto treatment…under no circumstances that you or anyone..give him any doses of VH-Serum without my confirmations…”.“...But…is it going to be okay?…he had already paid for his treatment in full…and already jump on the first line of a waiting list…”. (Mariah Mills)On this point of things, I knew that such things has happened. There’s a long list of waiting for any kind of treatments that involving the usage of VH-Serum, such order were implemented so that everyone can have their diseases treated equally. But by now, such list doesn&rs
“.…Okay then…Oh yeah…do you have something to do later today?..or are your schedule free fro the whole day?..”.“...Today?….hmm…let me check first……no nothing, I’m free..I got project meeting in 2 day at Paris..but that is 2 days later….why?..”.

It’s just that T.A.S told me that, he had managed to get in contact with, Lee Han Na and Derek Krawoski, and
It took us a nearly 2 hours to get to Palm Spring all the way from Los Angeles, although the atmosphere and at the Los Angeles is more less the same, but there is a difference. Because unlike at the Los Angeles, the atmosphere here were a little bit relaxing and not so congested as the large metropolitan city that is Los Angeles. But then again, Palm Spring were a place that mainly focused on leisures, Known for it’s many stylish hotels, golf course and the over abundance of spa’s, also a birth place of some weird out healthy lifestyles.“This place got some real chill vibes…also, there’s a heck load of fancy cars here…How envious to see so many rich kids just driving super cars…”. (Jack)“...That’s just how it is…rich kids just..that is what they are..faluting their parents wealth…don’t bother with them too much…if you do..then surely you would get stu
“It is said that if knowledge was water,” said their guide, a half-elf librarian named Vestra, “then Aeternum’s library is the ocean.”In a grand central chamber, they passed under a dome showing a starmap that changed with real-time sky positions. Every known nation had a section—yes, even the smallest and poorest. Aeternum had made it a point of pride to gather the history of every people in the continent, even those now forgotten by time.“This is… our old crest,” Queen Inariel whispered, her fingertips trembling as she reached toward an illuminated tome. “From three centuries ago… when our land was still one forest, before the wars divided it…”“We thought this was lost,” murmured Thelric as he came upon a scroll written in his kingdom’s ancient language, long dead and unspoken.Their tour grew quiet. There was no mocking here, no pompous declarations of Aeternum’s superiority. Only quiet reverence. A nation this strong, this secure, chose to preserve—not dominate. It guarded the
A knock at the door interrupted the quiet hum.It was Director Kwak Lum, again dressed in his signature dark blue robes, his draconic features smiling as he entered.“Honored guests,” he said, bowing respectfully. “Allow me to welcome you, on behalf of the Aeternum Crown and President Mies Sai. You are the first stars to light the Summit’s sky, and we are honored by your presence.”The gathered leaders rose and bowed in return.“We will ensure your time here is not just comfortable,” Kwak Lum continued, “but fruitful. Tours of the city have been arranged. Economic delegates will arrive within days for pre-summit discussions. And the Four-Leaf’s hot springs are now fully prepared—though I dare say our chefs may be the true stars of the Resort.”Laughter rippled through the room.As Kwak Lum left, Queen Inariel turned to the others. “Let them come in airships. Let them come with fanfare and marching bands. We came with purpose.”“And humility,” Brogath added.“Let’s make sure the world
Ambassador Roland cleared his throat. “Director Kwak… if I may speak freely?”“Always, Ambassador Roland.”He stood, brushing a hand across his waistcoat. “We are humbled. To house our people in such a place… it is more than any of us expected. We… we feared being seen as the weaker voices among the UNA.”Kwak Lum’s smile broadened, his eyes gleaming like starlight. “We do not see you as weak. We see you as family.”The moment lingered in silence, the kind that needs no words. Roland sat down; cheeks slightly flushed but heart a little lighter.Outside, beyond the floor-to-ceiling window, the sprawling city continued its dance of preparation. Massive floral displays were being installed at the roundabout leading to the Summit Plaza. Colorful banners were raised in quick succession, displaying the names of each arriving nation. Already, the delegation from the Dukedom of Angela had arrived in a train of shimmering glass carriages. The Republic of Telvinia’s airship hovered just beyond
“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
