What was in the briefcase on top of the table, that had attracted an exaggerated reactions form everyone is the newly developed artificial limbs that Aeternum Research and Development, Medical Department had devised and created. Even in Aeternum this was a rather ground breaking discovery and creations that has stunned so many people. Now as I brought it here, everyone will naturally have the same reactions as those that were back in Aeternum. Although on Earth we were much more technological advance then the Medieval Era of Fantasma, still the mechanical feats and creations of these particular artificial limbs has both surpassed the both world standards.“Wait?…is that really an prosthetic limbs?…it looks, so real…..”. (Sharon Jackson)Sharon reactions was she had to come forward and made a close inspections, after Mariah Mills who’s already took on her hand the Prosthetic arm and inspect it carefully with a careful eye. For Sharon she too were very interested on the prosthetic limbs
Mariah being the expert in the medical field in the entire room went on to explained just how revolutionary the artificial limbs that were on the table right now. In both the mechanical terms and also the medical aspect of the limbs were simply beyond the time of any such same artificial limbs in the market right now, it even surpassing by leads and bound from the current in use Artificial limbs that Virtue Medical had been using and selling at the moment.“...So, Mariah…you were saying that these…artificial limbs before us…will revolutionize the current artificial limbs market right?..alright…let’s set aside, the markets and also the revolutionize part first….Mies…is this…safe?..”. (Catherine)Seeing that both Sharon and Mariah were on the cloud nine and extremely praising the artificial limbs to the top. Catherine took the leads to asked the very important question.“It’s safe…in my opinion, it is…so far there is not complications should it being used by anyone…though I have yet mad
By the time I finished answering Catherine questions, everyone in the room looked at me in shocks and awe. Which is something that I could already see and understand why they reacted in such ways. In other words the artificial limbs that I have created right now, is just like Mariah Mills had said before had already passed the current artificial limbs study and creations.“Stimulate sensation…..also a new type of power source that never been heard…and also breaking the current technology….…good god, Mies….I can’t believe that you could do this…”. (Catherine)Catherine could only rub her temple and smiles as she heard the answer. Which also everyone reactions right now, of course, only Marcuez Vega were the only one that still trying to catch up.“...so..it’s a new good and advance limbs essentially right?…isn’t that a good thing?..why are you all looking like this….Hahahaha…good stuff boss!”. (Marcuez Vega)Marcuez said, innocently as he smiled at everyone around the table. Hea
After everyone basically knows the ins and outs of the New Artificial Limbs, and getting ti understand the degree of impact of such technology when it was introduced to the world, the flow of discussions had turned from the introductions of the limbs to how to incorporate them into the market. By no mistake, when these artificial limbs were introduce, for sure that it would cause big waves of changes. I know for sure that it would help a lot of disable people to once again to resumed their lives normally than before. After all with the limbs that not only able to move like a real limbs is already mind blowing. When the sensations on the artificial limbs were added to the limbs, then by all means it will be life changing experiences.“The foremost important thing as of now…is that, My team, should be the first to actually mastered the entirety of the Artificial Limbs…When the medical experts knows about this..then at that time I am sure that there should be no problem at all…when anyon
Not that I don’t care about any achievement or recognition, but to be honest such things has never been something that I ever wanted always. To me what matters the most I my result, and for now, it was the profits and money that I can gained from selling the Artificial Limbs to the market, that is much more crucial to me. If it were talking about achievement’s the development in Aeternum is much more interesting to me. After all, it can’t compare to what I have on Earth. After everyone knows that I am okay with everything, then the plans were devised carefully by Catherine.“Like always, with stuff like these…first we will have the study done..Hmm..could it be done in a few weeks, Mariah?..Sharon?..”. (Catherine)“...It can be…I believe it would only takes 2 weeks and 1 week is the fastest..but let’s just set it in 2 weeks just to be safe..”. (Mariah Mills)“I agreed..”. (Sharon Jackson)With that amount of time it was reasonable, after all, at the end of the day, they were only study
Catherine and I have the same thought, to us, it was better to prevent than curing. Rather than just release the new products then got a constant headache that the oppositions will make a hard resistance, it was better to eliminate the threat entirely before the battle even begun. And it was needless to say that both of us were ruthless the in the same way when it comes to the business world affairs, perhaps she was even more vicious than I am at sometimes.“Cathy..why don’t you guys continues with the meeting more…after all, with all these things that I dump on you all right now…I am sure you guys got a lot to talk to..”.It was nearing the time for my appointment with the show producer, Miss San Da Hee anyway. So I rather be there at the dot, after all, I have arranged some stuff there too.“Sure, Mies…are you going somewhere?..wait, ah!..you got that meeting about the show right?..”. (Catherine)“Yeah…also, just a heads up…these meeting will also be apart of the plan against the Wh
Whilst Ken who entered the room at the wrong time and become the victims of Catherine furry. Me, accompanied by Sharon and both, Park Zuo Yung and Choi Jin Su left the meeting room. Since I will only be changing clothes together with Sharon, the 2 doesn’t have to follow me. So I have the prepared for our departure and have Park Zuo Yung go and tell Hwa Young that we were heading back to the city.“Wait..is Miss Hwa Young in the Mansion right now?..”. (Sharon Jackson)“She is…she’s coming with me last night…actually we were both heading to the city today..furthermore, she will be helping me with these entertainment stuff…here’s my room..come in..”.On the second floor as we converse, we got to the front of my bedroom, hence I welcome her in. On the left of my bedroom were my closet, well actually calling it a closet is no longer appropriate, it should be called a wardrobe room. Because the it encompassed an entire room as big as my own bedroom. I rarely dived deep in to these wardrobe
After spending a few minutes, in the changing into my new clothes and on top of that getting a help from Sharon herself to groom my hair. Finally I am ready, quite honestly I can say for sure that, I am quite dashing, if be fore I looks like just your next door hunk, these time I am looking like a real gentlemen. Sharon paired me up, with a light blue button shirt, a long coat, and a black jeans with a straight cut. It honestly made me look not too formal, but also presentable at the same time, the colour also made me not that fierce, but gentle and approachable.As for my hair, it was rather simple, on the side she braided it to the back, making me looking like an elf, and then all of them were knot into a simple bun, that were fastened and held in place, with my go to, jade silver hairpin. In all honesty, I looked like an Elven like this. I actually know this because all of the Elven male usually made their hair to looked like this. i supposed it was right to trust Sharon handiwor
“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
