Chapter 4
Days went by, became weeks, then Months. Since the Francois Suicide Bomber attempt, no more were done, investigation was also a dead end, but BND analysts concluded it used a known Itchy trigger finger Francois cell hidden in Germania, the actual instigator was however unknown still, The Albish, RUSS and even the Asian Federation had enough reasons to try one on me, all are Nations I PERSONALLY led OZEV into demolishing them or their ancestor Nations.
The Albish clearly were still bitter by how I had decided that they needed a good sucker punch to the face and groins after their constant idiotic deals with the CSR even when they were ran to near the center of earth by Ultra Left communist zealots, including making Life for everyone HARD when they managed to cripple Suez canal in their attempt at kicking the Aegyptian Leader out and reinstate their rule, it didn't help the Francois were just as shit on that wasteful Joint venture.
The CSR was Obvious, i had to admit that on a short Hindsight back then, that Moderate or not, Communism HAS to be dealt with, and at times with heavy Aggression, had to cost OZEV, Germania getting hit by a Loose canon using CSR bioweapons for me to decide that scorching their lands was the only Military Option, fortunately, Ten Nukes in and the CSR killed itself in inner turmoil between surrender or just trying to MAD the world, turmoil that opened a breach for Elya's spy net to find their biggest Biological Arsenals and Delivery units and Nuke them, the rest was hunting and tracking their Sleeper agents, took some time, but thankfully not one success happened in Germania or its allies, Albion and Francois however…. Lost a few years to contain and purge the effects of the areas hit with it. The Successor states of Rus simply Imploded by CSR agents deciding that Purging them was a nice idea, that's one reason the RUSS seems to have a hate boner to me.
The Oddball Nation is Akitsushima, The very day I announced my taking the reins, the embassy had its staff leave, and they haven't tried contact ever since, I made a token attempt early on and that's it. Their current Military Force is within the Scale of a Heavily Demilitarized Army, Navy and Air Force, if I am to give an equivalent, they probably are only 10% Bigger than the 2010s numbers about the JSDF had in my First life. For obvious reasons, a of Magicians are the Makeup of their forces, as a Nation, they have easily the Largest Number of them per sample pool, but the Hardware for those same forces is very lacking, the Only reason their Nation remains mostly free of outside influences is their reckless use of a Strategic class Magician whose special Spell is in the crudest terms a really Hyper efficient Variable Output Nuke, that is USELESS against OZEV, again because of Tanyaism…. Who would know that a religion would spread and be a valid method to create a Bounded field the size of the whole Center of Europa. And If those idiots still want to harm OZEV, then they would be targeting a NON OZEV neighborhoor of us at the Border zone, and by that point, i swear I would just GO THERE in PERSON and MURDER their Government, Military and that Magician, It's one thing to wage war against me, Germania and its allies, it's another to decide you will simply Vaporize the entire countryside of a Neighborhoor of us to damage our Lands.
Drinking my Coffee, perfect Blend of grains from Asia, and brewed just how I love it. The Majority of Priority reforms have been set and put into Motion, so my paperwork as of late now was of the menial or not essential, and most of all, still reading the little bits of information of all these years I spent having to wage one Miserable life after another, a lot of it was…. Interesting…. But depressing or absolutely infuriating as well.
"Really? A First World Nation had its Presidential Election FRAUDED? At Levels one would expect of an AFRIKAN Dictatorship? Have I Misjudged WHO were the actual nice ones of that country?"
…
"So they Managed to COLLAPSE the American Entertainment Industry by means of Propaganda level garbage? And what the FUCK? How Many Repeat names have been continuously GIVEN new Ips to destroy? This explains a bit WHY Germania-chan content remains popular…. Never got ruined by such doofus and Incompetence."
….
"How amazing…. Decide to wage war in the Kieva situation, and step on so many obvious Landmines that OZEV BROKE DOWN due to Massive Oil shortages to Heat houses…. And what a shocker, 70% of West Europa was ran By Pauls."
….
"Am I reading this right? First Aegyptian FEMALE CARGO SHIP CAPTAIN managed to drift her vessel into the Suez at an Angle, blocking it for a whole two weeks with a total one Month to get that shit Unstuck and the damages repaired…. Wonderful, memo to self, verify if I can still drive well."
…
"Engineered Virus in Neo Jiuzhou…. How NOT surprising. The US Blue funding of it though…. And it just ravaged the world in time to let them nab the Election via Mass Fraud…. Is this supposedly to not be obvious or what?"
The days went like that, Check the Papers and reports in need of a check, read more bits of news that were removed from Official sources, but Independent Medias saved the day, also a memo to self, get the next John 'o Koffhman that has such Journalistic Integrity a Medal, men like these are truly what's necessary to keep Leaders Honest. Now however, is Time to finally pay a long Overdue visit to someone.
Those Dishonorable scummy bastards had wiped a lot of Memorials from both Great wars, and even had the courage to remove the graves of Those that were Pillars of Germania, the Memorial Built for the 203rd had been obviously first target, but to think they would go as far as trying to Wash People Like Ruddesdorf and Zettour from the registries? I have to Admit I made a LOT of Emotion fueled Rationalizations and Decisions, and likely more than enough of those are what gave such Birth of the Tanyaism Church, but I NEVER took Kindly to History wiping, not when Bitch X had made clear that Second Life of Mine would be the last, that's Until he decided using WE as a chew toy for his anger by just Reincarnating us into one bad, ruined, or fated for shit Lives, and even then it remained, to think that Maybe, each Life in each world would never have an actual speck of data or Information telling future others I existed there, that fucked fear never left. So seeing how just utter Communist their attempts at Unpersoning people important to the Golden moments of The Empire and Later Germania, merely because they wanted Mages Out of the Picture to compete for them for the Glory of making all those fancy schmancy miracles, it was truly rage inducing.
And here it is, in a Cemetery so removed in the Countryside of Germania, her Relocated Grave, all the BND managed to do, have it put somewhere they wouldn't bother with, and it still feels they went past the acceptable line by thousands of Suns in distance. Viktorya Ivanovna Serebryakov's Grave, from a humble but still in Berun's Cemetery spot to a Rural area Basic Cemetery and marked by only a crude slab of Granite.
"I'm back, Visha…."
I can be hurt, badly enough, be a completely Broken ace of Aces, Injured Chancellor, usurped Holy Kaiserin, and so, so much worse, an Innumerous Numbers of Lives to OUR breaking Point and FAR past that. Yet I can't help but feel I hurt her more, being this broken yet Alive, and once more, here in this world.
"I will come another time, hope you never met that Asshole X or his friends."
Walking back, to somewhere i could Take off back to Berun, a known Person is present. Mike.
"How nice, not even a peep of my Miserable moment there?"
He laughs, just a bit, guess important Business has come.
"You told me to wait, didn't you?"
"Yes, I did. And you came for?"
"I Managed to get a RUSS national to leave, a commander of a PMC base, did jobs for the Government and Military, the Company backer from the Military is the leader of the KCCO, the RUSS spec ops side, and the Hardware backer of theirs is an Albish guy as dirty as some US Blue closets."
"Wunderbar, and how can I trust that person?"
"She owns her Life to HEAL Labs, which is an ARMS TRIGGER child company my Prodigal son works in as the right hand of the head of that company, and HE is who saved her bacon."
"Alright, she has your full backing, anything else?"
He smiles.
"She will work for you."
I make a frown and let a very long sigh. Just great.
"You have her data?"
He just gives me a Tablet, once I open the few files inside and give a quick read, I can only sigh. Troublesome, a competent, well achieved Soldier whose career just never went ahead because of inner factional disputes. That and she's a Hottie.
"I Guess her interview with me is soon? Today even?"
"I can postpone it for tomorrow, she REALLY is fed up with all the BS going in there. Also she has asked to be allowed to bring ALL her Doll inventory."
Dolls, or basically how the RUSS and People later called the Robots that started taking in the Vacuum of workforce for certain Jobs, Initially only the Hard or Dangerous Jobs, like Construction, Mining and all those jobs in remote areas Like offshore rigs. But Soon they spread to Service Industries and even as Household Maids, Military Dolls are Utilitarian and to the Point, while PMCs had been allowed to retrofit outdated Civilian Models with a FCS core and Weapons up to Infantry scale except for Man Portable ATWs or Mortars.
"What exactly?"
"450 T-Dolls, 180 Reconverted Rogue Ferris Dolls, 10 captured KCCO Spider tank Dolls as well as Seven Heavy Ordnance Projection Doll teams, aka the Big, Tank Killer Guns."
I am left agape. HOW THE HELL THAT WOMAN GOT THAT MUCH IN ASSETS without ANYONE in there realizing?
"Mike, tell me HOW she has managed THAT much there and is fully willing to work under me with such assets?"
He shrugs and smiles.
"SOMEONE there knows but decided she's worth letting have that much firepower, worry not, I will make sure things go ok."
"FIIINE….. you paying her expenses too right?"
A smile, good, no Funny scheming Germania's Budget is a good thing, We both Leave in flight, Kaiserin shortly after is back along.
