Chapter 59: Chapter 58: A Gift to Ferdinand.
3rd Pov
In Hayana, we can see Ferdinand and Tanya at the Dacian Embassy, after leaving the airport and doing the usual diplomatic procedures, the two went to the Embassy so they could rest.
"Your Imperial Highness, do you want me to put pressure anywhere?" Asked a masseuse while massaging Ferdinand, who was feeling in paradise.
"In the middle of the back, please Madame" Said Ferdinand while still having his eyes closed, happy with the massage he was receiving.
However, Ferdinand's happiness soon disappeared when the door to the room where he was was opened, with an extremely serious Tanya entering holding a newspaper, looking at the Imperial Guards there and at the masseuse.
"Your Imperial Highness, I need to speak to you alone, serious matter" Tanya said as she reluctantly bowed to Ferdinand, knowing that she needed to play her part so that no one would complain that she was being disrespectful.
Ferdinand, upon hearing Tanya's voice, opened his eyes before waving his hand calmly, with the Imperial Guards and the masseuse understanding the message and bowing to him before waiting outside the room, closing the door so that no one could hear what would be said.
"What is it? It seems that we are even entering stages of war against the Russy" Ferdinand said as he raised his head, looking at Tanya before becoming serious upon seeing the newspaper in her hand, with his mind working seriously to understand what was happening.
"No, but I think we will have to put aside the trip to the Olmec Union" Tanya said seriously as she handed the newspaper to Ferdinand, who had sat down on the stretcher to read properly what was written.
*The Olmec Union Cuts Off Newly Established Diplomatic Relations with Imperium Daciae!*
*Today, this Thursday, the Olmec Union declares that it will no longer have diplomatic relations with Imperium Daciae, a newly born Empire that already has a lot of influence and control in what is now called the Middle East, in addition to possessing several natural oil reserves in the region.
The reason for this cut in diplomatic relations has not been disclosed, but many speculate that it has to do with the pressure that the Unified States of Murica has now placed on the countries of the Murican Continent, after Legionary Movements began to emerge, either because they are against Democracies or a way to control the rise of Socialist movements in the Muricas.*
Ferdinand, upon seeing this, was calm on the outside, but Tanya, who has spent enough time with him to understand his microexpressions, as well as the veins popping out of his hands, as if he was holding back from tearing the newspaper, knew that Ferdinand was extremely angry.
Sighing and placing a hand on his head trying to calm himself down, he looks at Tanya seriously.
"So we'll only have Santa Cruz for now, after that, we'll go to the Dragon Continent before returning home, forget about the Southern Continent, another time we can travel there" Ferdinand said as he handed the newspaper to Tanya, who calmly took it while nodding her head.
"Yes, we've been traveling a lot already, besides, it's not like you won't have opportunities in the future, considering how warmongering you are, I don't doubt that the Southern Continent isn't in your plans of conquest" Tanya said mockingly at the end, trying to change the mood of the room a little, after all, she wasn't used to seeing Ferdinand angry and this was at the very least... strange for her.
"Heh, true" Ferdinand said laughing a little and nodding his head.
"Do you want me to give you a massage? I'm sure you'll like it just like last time~" Tanya said with a malevolent smile on her face, enjoying seeing Ferdinand's horrified face.
"For all that is holy, NO!" Ferdinand shouted in fear, he didn't want to feel a police baton on his back again.
????? POV
I don't understand why people are losing faith in their creator, in the past they only had to say my name for many to start worshiping me, but now... it seems harder to save the souls of these poor foolish sheep who are leaving the flock.
When I brought that little sheep to that new world, my goal was to make him, now her, awaken the faith that existed within her heart, in addition to making significant changes in that world.
But when I learned that a certain Department had brought another foreign soul to that world, I became curious. I knew I would be taking a risk by trying to do what I was planning, but even so, I tried to get him to help me bring enlightenment to that sheep.
Yes... I tried to trick him, but in the end, he would be rewarded because I know how to reward my faithful servants, just as I did with many others, but now... here I am, signing papers nonstop.
"If I see a single unsigned paper by lunchtime, you'll be here for another 500 years!" Shouted my temporary boss, Julie, a succubus-looking woman in secretary clothes as she pointed at me angrily.
"Understood, Madame," I said calmly as I signed everything, sighing a little at the end, in the background I could hear the sound of phones and people answering, as well as papers being signed or stacked.
And to think that the Corporatism of mortals could go to the Afterlife too... it's interesting and at the same time worrying.
Johan POV
Ever since Ferdinand started traveling the world, the Imperial Palace hasn't been as lively as it used to be, I know it was my idea to make him travel the world to have fun, but now I'm starting to regret it.
When the assassination attempt on Ferdinand took place, Dmitrievna was furious. She wanted to send the entire Imperial Army and Imperial Guard to search for the terrorists, as well as bring Ferdinand back. Thank God, I managed to convince her. After that, she demanded that the guard around Ferdinand be increased, and I agreed because I was also worried about my son.
Following Ferdinand's ideas, my father and I were doing everything we could to ensure that the Imperium developed in the right way, following the suggestions and ideas that Ferdinand had given us before he left.
At first, I was worried when I saw about the scientific part that Ferdinand wanted us to invest in. Klara Schnitzler was not a normal woman, but a demon in human skin. I don't understand how Ferdinand managed to get in touch with her and how he gained her loyalty.
But now with the results in hand and having also seen how the Perfect Soldiers that Ferdinand wanted were being created, I put aside my thoughts and my morals and invested more in this woman's projects, in addition to giving Titles and Lands to her and her scientific team.
Now I was currently in my office talking to Nikolay, who had come to the Imperium on behalf of the Russy Exiles as a whole to negotiate with me.
Why? Simple...the Russy Exiles want to stay in the Imperium.
"I don't understand Nikolay, why do all the Russy from both factions want to come to Dacia? The way you are, you have more to gain by living in the Empire and supporting them than with us now" I say seriously, drinking a glass of water, while Nikolay also drank, because in these negotiations he needed to stay sober, something rare for the Russy who I don't doubt have vodka in their system instead of water
"It's true, the Empire is the biggest power currently, but Dacia is also becoming a strong power in its own right, developing faster and already having a powerful Sphere of Influence, but most importantly: You are on a hostile footing against the Reds, even though you are not at war, while the Empire hides behind a Non-Aggression Pact with the Federation" Nikolay answers me seriously while looking me in the eyes.
"Another point is that the Imperium Daciae doesn't care about the stupid International Laws of War, which will be necessary in the future, because those Reds won't care about that, they will only want to win and spread their rotten Ideology to the world." Yes, he was right, the Communists wouldn't care about the International Laws of War when they went against the Imperium, just like we wouldn't care either.
Since the true Tactics of the Imperium were finally shown to the world a few months ago, we had a certain amount of worldwide infamy, but the people didn't care, not even those from the other Middle Eastern countries, except for the Rumeli Republic, which had a bit more unrest, but was quickly dealt with by the government there and the Secret Service.
But most importantly, this didn't affect us economically, after all, with the Imperial Family controlling the Oil reserves of the Imperium and the Middle East, we continued to make a lot of profit.
I sigh before nodding at Nikolay.
"Alright, I can let you guys come to the Imperium, the more people against the Federation in the future, the better" I say as I look at Nikolay, who I can see is happy.
"Haha, I knew you would accept, brother-in-law! Don't worry, we will work together with the Dacian Imperial Army and the other Military Forces completely, besides... we will give a little gift to my beloved nephew" Nikolay said as he looked at me with a mischievous smile... I don't like this.
"For the love of God Nikokay... What are you thinking of giving Ferdinand?" I ask Nikolay seriously.
"Nothing much Johan, I'm just giving Ferdinand some trustworthy people who will protect him, not discrediting the Imperial Guard, but people who could always stand by him and support him in everything, even giving advice would be good for the future Monarch, don't you think?" Nikolay said while raising an eyebrow.
"Hmmm....can I know the names of these people?" I asked a little curiously, liking the idea.
"I can only give you the name of one person, a girl who comes from a minor Russy noble family that lived in in the Noble Area of Moskva and fled to the Empire during the Civil War, she would normally join the Empire's Army, but now she will come here with her family, her name is Viktoriya" Nikolay said.
