AN: Hello, my lovely readers, I'm here, sorry for disappearing without warning, I had some tests these weeks and I needed to focus my whole being on that, my teachers are charging me more than the IRS when they see that I didn't pay one of my taxes.
But now I'm finally free from this pain.....for now, but this time I'll let you know if I have more tests.

Ferdinand Pov
It's been 2 days since that conversation with my family. Currently, Tanya and I were in the courtyard of the Imperial Palace; I was going to meet the people who would be part of my Personal Guard, as well as my advisors, etc. Who was sent as a gift from my uncle (that almost smelled like slavery to me, I won't lie), with the main person I had my eye on being none other than Viktoriya Ivanovna Serebryakov.
When I saw her, I had to admit that I was surprised, she didn't look like her Anime adaptation, in fact, she looked like a perfect mix of Light Novel, Manga, and Anime, with her having big blue eyes and short blonde hair, with her bangs slanted to the left side, having a slender figure, thin waist, and healthy white skin.
She was with 5 other people who were lined up while looking ahead seriously, well, at least the other 5 people, because from what I could see, Viktoriya was quite nervous; how did I know that? Simple, you could see the drops of nervous sweat falling from her forehead.
But leaving that aside, I walked and inspected Viktoriya and the other 5 people, with only one managing to get my attention from this group besides Viktoriya, a man with black hair and brown eyes, pale white skin, and being almost a mountain of muscles, his name was Yablonsky Dimitri Vasilievich, who was the Leader of the Group that was my uncle's gift.
This man is a Cossack who was with some Cossack Forces commanded by certain officers who wanted to resist the Communist takeover of the Tsardom that is now the Federation but ended up with what was left of the Cossack Forces having to flee after the Bolsheviks attacked the resisting troops with everything and started a massacre in the village they were using as Headquarters, which ended with Dimitri's father dying at the hands of a communist officer.
Needless to say, our dear Dimitri hates Communists to the core, wanting nothing more than to see every communist's family die with them.
I then see Dimitri step forward and bow to me, with the others doing the same.
"My Prince, it is a great honor to finally meet you, Yablonsky Dimitri Vasilievich, ready to serve you" Dimitri said to me while still bowing to me.
3rd Pov
Ferdinand nodded his head in satisfaction upon seeing this, while Tanya, who was next to our dear protagonist, was analyzing the group that would be working for Ferdinand, knowing that with this, there would be less chance of her employer dying because of his own stupid or suicidal decisions.
'At least this way I won't have to follow him everywhere... and I'll be able to enjoy my time in the office drinking Santa Cruz coffee' Tanya thought seriously, until her eyes focused on a teenager who, while she had a serious face, was sweating heavily from nervousness.
Viktoriya was about to fall to her knees because her legs were so weak from pure nervousness, she had mentally prepared herself for this, but even so, the worry still persisted in her, thinking that she wouldn't be able to serve the Crown Prince as she should and bring possible dishonor to the group that was carefully selected by Prince Nikolay.
At least she was sure of one thing, the Crown Prince was cute, especially in person.
"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Vasilievich, just as it's an honor to meet all of you" Ferdinand said to Dimitri as he offered his hand for a shake, which Dimitri accepted.
Ferdinand then looked at everyone there, with a charismatic smile typical of his on his face as he spoke.
"I will be leaving my life in your hands, I trust in the abilities of each of you to not only protect me but to give me advice when necessary on how to act, there are certain things that I do not know, so I will need the wisdom of each of you when necessary" Ferdinand said as he looked at his Personal Guard, who all nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, my Prince, we will make sure that you are protected and whenever and wherever you have doubts, we will be the first to answer any questions you have" Dimitri said seriously while still bowing to Ferdinand, who nodded with a smile.
"Thank you" Ferdinand said.
Time Skip no Jutsu
It had been 3 weeks since Ferdinand had been with this Personal Guard of his, and he was not idle either, as he had spoken with Legatus Arthur Iordanescu to ensure that Tanya could receive a position as a Centurion in a Foreign Division of the Legions of Archangel Michael, which Arthur had ensured that Tanya would receive the position quickly after he had shown her "fanaticism", as well as her Magical Aptitude and leadership capabilities for an officer.
It went without saying that Tanya, while calm on the outside, was happy on the inside with her temporarily peaceful life.
Now we can see Ferdinand walking through the corridors of one of the laboratories under the command of Klara Schnitzler; with him was his Personal Guard, whom he got to know more about during the 3 weeks, especially Viktoriya.
Tanya was not with him because this matter was quite delicate, with only a few really being able to know about what he was doing there.
The reason for Ferdinand visiting one of Klara Schnitzler's laboratories was quite simple, he wanted to see the process of creating the Super-Soldiers that he had ordered her to create, Ferdinand was extremely happy when his father delivered the news that the experiments to create the Super-Soldiers worked, with the Central Government sparing no effort to send the maximum resources to ensure the creation of these Warriors who will be one of the most important Pillars of the Dacian Imperial Armed Forces.
When he arrived at the entrance to one of the rooms, he saw Klara Schnitzler, as well as some Guards and scientists already waiting for him, with the mad scientist kneeling before our protagonist, her eyes shining with fanaticism and a tone of voice that showed complete and total devotion to the Prince who ensured that her future as a Scientist would be successful.
"My Prince Ferdinand von Rotenburg, welcome to my humble laboratory, I am honored to have your wonderful presence gracing this humble servant of yours" Klara said with a smile on her face as she was kneeling, she was holding herself back from trying to kiss Ferdinand's feet.
Ferdinand nodded with a smile on his face as he looked at her; he then looked at the Guards and Scientists who were also kneeling there; he then spoke in a calm but firm tone.
"Please stand up; you are doing important work for the Imperium; I will not accept that the people who work in these facilities, be it the cleaners, the guards, or scientists, have to kneel before me," Ferdinand said as he helped Klara to stand up.
Viktoriya, who was watching this, was impressed by how fanatical this scientist seemed towards Ferdinand. She knew that the Imperium Daciae as a whole was having levels of extreme ideological fanaticism, with everyone who was not considered traitors to the homeland or reds carrying with them an absolute zeal when it came to the Dacian Imperial Family, but Klara apparently had Ferdinand SPECIFICALLY as the object of her adoration.
'Why does she seem so fanatical in the presence of the Crown Prince?' She thought while having a very genuine curiosity, wanting to know what the Crown Prince did to Scientist Schnitzler, who she had heard from some comments would soon become a Duchess if she was so fanatical about him.
'But I have to say... the Prince is a very humble person' Viktoriya thought, seeing this act of "kindness", without knowing that the "Cute Prince" she protected was doing nothing more than his role as a future good Cesar, giving the image of someone from the people.
When Klara stood up, with Ferdinand saying beautiful words thanking not only her, but all the laboratory employees for their work, the group began to be guided by Klara to where the procedure for the creation of what would be the First Super-Soldier of the Imperium Daciae would take place, with Johan, Dmitrievna and Frederick deciding to let Ferdinand see first, before a display took place for the Imperial Family to see the results of their investments.
Arriving in a room where there was reinforced glass both normally and magically to look into the room where the Super-Soldier creation procedure would take place, Ferdinand was served tea while he sat in one of the chairs provided for the entire group; Klara then signaled to the team in charge to begin the procedure.
In the room that Ferdinand and his group were looking at, a man could be seen lying on a giant metal stretcher; this man had healthy white skin, green eyes, dark hair, and a very strong build, having a very muscular body.
This man was Leonidas Nicologlou, an Imperial soldier of Hellenic origin who had shown himself extremely loyal to the Imperium since they were freed from the Rumeli Tyranny, with him being one of the first citizens of the Imperium from the Hellenic Region to join the Imperial Army, with him showing a fanaticism that even made him considered for the position of Imperial Commissioner when such a position was created by the National-Legionary Dacian Party, however, destiny had other goals for him.
With that he was soon called to Cezar's Perfect Soldier Project when the experiments were shown to be a total success, now he was there, being the first soldier of the Imperium to go through the process that would transform him into one of the Pillars that would protect the Imperium from the Foreign, Socialist and Traitor threats.
The scientists soon entered the room where he was and began the procedure, with Ferdinand quite excited to see the results, as this would be the first of several Super-Soldiers that would be used by the Imperium in the future Crusade that would be made against the Russian Federation.
