I Told You I Would Do It

Alexander's speech was broadcasted nationwide and internationally. After declaring his ultimatum to the countries who are at war with Ruthenia, an empire that is the sole user of nuclear weapons, that should they continue their war efforts against them, they'll meet the same fate as the United States did.

One of the people watching the broadcast was Erik Jan Hanussen, the Prime Minister of the Deutschland Empire. His hands clenched into a fist to the degree it was shivering and making the glass of his whiskey crack. 

Unable to contain his anger and frustration at Alexander, he swept the books and files on his desk to the side, stood up, and threw the glass on the floor, shattering it.

"No! How can this fucking be?! I wasn't informed that Ruthenia possessed such a weapon?" Erik clambered his head, pulling his hair in frustration. A few strands were ripped out from stress. The prime minister sat down again with more force than necessary.
