For the Military designer team, all that I can say for sure is that, thanks to the 2 gun nuts on the team, everything were on the schedule and also being done passionately. Especially by the team leader Frank and Mike, who’s when there’s anything that is involved with guns, machine, gears and explosion will have their own heated arguments all the time, to the point where Hannah said that she had to place both of them and in fact the Entire Team 6 and 7 on a different office in a different floor. But thankfully, aside from the 2 gun nuts, Team 5 and it’s leader Miss Kaneko, who’s also on the Military Designer team, is rather silent and passive in her works.Rather than taking the tasked to join in making the Weapons, machinery, gears and custom vehicles. Team 5 and Miss Kaneko were incharge in producing the Aeternum Military uniforms, combat fatigue, casual clothing and gears outlooks. Anything related to the military fashions she undertook them and painted over them and beautify them.
I don’t spend a lot of time at the Neko Games Branch office, after about an hour or so, right after I done all the works that were needed, I left with both the digital copies and the physical copies of all the completed designed that the team had. The works that comes with me is from the General Fashion, Automobile Technologies,and the Products Creative Designs, these 3 teams were the only one that already have 50% of the most solid complete design, thought the other team also have some of the work complete, but I just wanted to take the solid one out. Mostly because I wanted these design to be made as fast as I can, especially for the General Fashion and the Creative Products ones.Because of the 3 the 2 were the most easiest to be done, one was just clothes and the others were mostly the miscellaneous stuff, like bags and the packaging logos or stuff like so. So, I rather wanted to see how the stuff will looks like in a real life, by this point I already started to buy a numbers of
Me and Park Zuo Yung after leaving the Neko Games Branch office, we did not head back straight to Haneul University Hospital. Instead we stayed at Purple Horse Hotel for a little bit, after all, right now, it was just around 1 in the noon. We still have to have lunch at some point and I also have some of Virtue Financial worked to be done here on top of filling my times with reviewing the Design. So in the Purple Horse Hotel, I rested inside the private dining room at the hotel 35th floor 5 star restaurant. Since I am rather still ‘hospitalized’ at the moment, I can’t afford to relax at any cafe on the side of the street.“Sir…Choi Ji Su just called..”. (Park Zuo Yung)“Hmm?..Choi Ji Su?…let her speak..”.“Sure, …Director..you are on loud speaker…go ahead..”.(Park Zuo Yung)Park Zuo Yung turned on the loudspeaker of the call and put the phone on the table, near me.“[Sir, President…we have reply from, Minister Choi Han Na..]”. (Choi Ji Su)“...That’s quick…did Doctor Choi told
At this point, I am sure that all of Virtue Financial employee that works around me, knows my style. When I normally asked them when they were going to finished up their works and when I did not provide any dead line, they had to estimate everything themselves, naturally this options gave them a sufficient enough time for them to deal with everything they need. Even if they asked more time and probably use that time to do something else, I didn’t mind of it, as long as by then end of the dead line they give themselves, the job is finished.“You seems like you were in a good mood, Sir…Here’s your coffee…”. (Park Zuo Yung)“Hmm?…thanks, well…Choi Ji Su, gave me a reply that satisfied me…I supposed she finally getting use to work for me..I told her to buy a bunch of things…and the amount of time she need for all of it were just a single week…that is quite fast..”.Park Zuo Yung by these point had already became my fully pledge Personal Assistant already, since she were able to perceive m
“They were wary, that a business man like me..have to many power and influence…it’s normal, they saw me as a variables that can change anything against them..and they knows it….Because unlike any other business organization they meet, Virtue Financial is never like any other….we have stood alone since the day I built it…and even now, we have solidify our standing without having anyone support…And now, the field had change…Virtue Financial had now have a solidarity standing…that no one can grab hold off…”.Park Zuo Yung just sat down and listened as she comes to learn from me, the reasons behind, Virtue Financial powerful foundations, and the reason why, a lot of people is rather wary of Virtue Financial, but at the same time couldn’t do anything but wither leave us alone or just barking from afar. Perhaps Virtue Financial were the only one of it’s kind, the only company that did not rely on any government to make a living instead, thanks to VH-Serum, the people and the government inst
Today, was a rather a roller coaster of emotions for Choi Han Na, thanks to the president reactions of the recent public terrorized incidents that involved a world famous actress and also the President of Virtue Financial, that is nothing short of a greedy shows of intentions that have put the entire government seems like a chaotic show. At the morning meeting she were surprised by her younger cousin call, that the one that she wanted to meet had finally wanting to meet her. No one are able to understand her feeling right now, Choi Han Na had goes through a hellish experience in her whole career climbing to where she was now.She is an independent politician and a woman on top of that, who shows her grit and ambitions and capacity to get where she was right now. But at the end of the day, just like anyone else, there will come to a point where, it seems that she were nearing her end times of her career. In the next elections, there a large potential where she would be kicked out of of
“Madam Minister…I heard that President Mies…is a rich guy that played around with woman…I also heard that he actually funded some mafias with his money…is it really safe for us to meet him like these?..”. (Lee Yeun Jong)As they finally left the lobby and entered the lift together with Manager Kim Jeol, Lee Yeun Jong, who is Minister Choi Han Na personal assistant, and also her long time loyal friend and comrade that has been in her campaign from the start, started to feel a little bit anxious and already spouting her tabloid knowledge to Minister Choi Han Na.“Yeon Jong-Ssi….that is just tabloids rumors…a news that were made up every now and then…just like the one that people says about me…you know saying that I am a vampire or something…remember that?..you can’t believe such things…it’s were all made up stories…”. (Minister Choi Han Na)“.…I guess so, all those news only have the articles and mostly write on opinion based rather than providing any evidence behind it…”.(Lee Yeun Jong
“Hahaha…Don’t mind me, Minister…I am just a Manager on these establishment….and truthfully, there were a lot of people that have the same skeptic opinion about Virtue Financial that comes to Purple Horse Hotel…But as always..they changed their opinion on that matter..soon after they speaks about it…it has been a rather normal occasion now…but still no matter who it is…the result will all be the same……oh, we have arrived…”.(Manager Kim Jeol)That comment were simply saying that, if someone keep being obstinate inside the Virtue Financial ground, they will know about them. And Virtue Financial will never let them go unscathed, no matter who you are, behave yourself, or there will be grave consequences, we have done it once and we definitely not afraid to do it again. That is what Manage Kim Jeol just meant by his words. For the duo, they were just glad that the entire ordeal were finished as soon as the lift door were opened and revealed the restaurant, on these particular sectio
“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
