Chapter 7: Confrontation (Part II)

"I'M SORRY, IMPERIUMMAIUS IS NOT THE WORD USED BY YOUR EXCELLENCY THE GENERAL JUST NOW, I DON'T QUITE UNDERSTAND THE CONTENT, AND I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ENTANGLING WITH A SLAVE LIKE YOU AT NIGHT." Adiana raised her hand, and several eunuchs understood the implication, so they took the first step and went to the room to decorate.

Now all that remained in the cloister was Adiana standing, Demetrius sitting on a stone chair, and Stratonis mourning on the ground, and the whistling of the wind passing through the cloister aisle.

"AREN'T YOU TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF POMPEY'S ANGER AT CLAUDIUS NOW, SO THAT HE CAN USE IMPERIUMMAIUS TO SNATCH COMMAND OF THE THIRTEENTH LEGION, AND THEN LET CARABIS'S PATRON IN ROME IMPEACH MY MASTER IN THE SENATE?" Dmetrius sat on the stone chair, picking his nails comfortably, "Unfortunately, I'm the confidential staff who handles the documents. โ€

"It's a confidential slave, don't use boring words like staff to cover up your shame." After Adiana finished speaking, she suddenly remembered what Calabis had told in advance, if the Jews found out about one of their links, it would be necessary to pretend to be panicked, let him be paralyzed by smugness first, and then wait for the opportunity to start, so Adiana let her voice tremble a little, "Anyway, tell me what you did." โ€

Dmetrius turned his face sideways and said with a smile: "It's very simple, the actual commander of the Thirteenth Legion is General Peternius, and he is also an old colleague of General Pompey, so I sent a very ordinary personal letter to discuss some issues of interest with him. Also, the nominal leader of the Thirteenth Legion, Consul Neruda, is also considered an ally of the master and Cicero, once the two consuls agree - the remainder. All it was necessary to order the Thirteenth Legion to stand still. My master, Pompey, will still win the second Grand Triumph. By the way, he will reorganize the order of Asia Minor and win the support of the kings, and then he will use the wealth gained from this war to buy retired grange properties for the retired soldiers. After saying that, Demetrius slowly walked up to Adiana and whispered, "You and little Calabis are not good, the other is a female dog who has lost her country." One is a bastard in the sewers of Rome, who has met a few nobles in Rome, and really thinks that you two can bring down my master by joining forces? No, even if it's me now, I hold up a little finger. As he spoke, Demetrius raised his finger, "I can easily kill you both, I didn't send IMPERIUMMAIUS at all, everything will be settled in a private letter." Therefore, it is not possible for you to try to take advantage of the internal strife between the Thirteenth Legion and the Master Legion to fish in troubled waters. โ€

"You mean. Is Pompey still with the wealth to house veterans? Adiana's voice was already shaking.

Demetrius took another step closer to Adiana, "That's right, my master has obtained thirty-six thousand talents in this war, but I didn't expect it, unlike your father's poor false wealth, this is the tribute of the twelve kingdoms, and the rewards and retirement assets of the legionaries are only sixteen thousand tarents, and the remaining 20,000, the master is ready to divide half of them, pay them into the treasury, and hold a huge opera house, and use the large school yard to rebuild a huge temple of Venus, My master will become the god of Rome after the war, and I, Demetrius, will be the servant of God. After saying that, Demitrius actually lifted the hair from Adiana's ear, and boldly took a puff of incense, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

But Adiana didn't show any resistance, just said blankly: "Then how will you settle me, this kind of thing is also up to you, right?" โ€

"Adiana, please forgive me for calling you by your name, but you don't know how much power I have now, it's a pity that our relationship in Asia Minor was so good, but you don't know the times, and you are in the camp of that Calabis, he is just a bastard with a slave girl." "I'm very resentful of this, but if you can put down your shelf, I may consider placing you in a city like Eubertnia, which your father founded, or elseโ€”by the way, aren't many princesses lost their way at the seduce of handsome squires?" Adiana you are not the first, nor are you zuihou one. With that, Demetrius pressed Adiana's shoulder, trying to peck her slightly trembling lips.

But soon, he twisted his body, comically fell on his side, straightened his waist, supported the stone chair next to him with one hand, and his face was all twisted, because Adiana bent his fingers stubbornly, which made him cry in pain, but Adiana's chestnut eyes seemed to flash fiery anger under the night sky, as terrifying and majestic as Bellow, the goddess of war, like a poisonous scorpion that only catches its prey, "Demetrius, you shitty thing, when you were in Xiaoya before, you would hide outside the tent and the firewood house, Secretly watching my face blaspheme myself with your hands, and then constantly insulting me in the illusory shijie with your dirty and nasty thoughts, isn't it, say! โ€

"I must, I must!" Demitrius was in such pain that his heart was about to jump out.

Adiana sneered, "It must be something, just let me see, how much power you just boasted of?" After speaking, the princess pinched Demetrius's lower body in a miserable howl, and then the princess opened her hand with a cold contemptuous expression, "This is the great power you boast of?" I'm afraid it won't be as big as your monthly door. She then thrust Demetrius onto the stone chair, grabbed him by the neck, and continued to chase after him, humiliating Pompey's confidential slave: "You know what? Although you are wearing seemingly decent clothes, but still can't cover your soft back, the lying and weeping over there is your example, don't think that you will get carried away when you see my momentary downfall, you must know that sooner or later, a bed bug like you will still be trampled into the dirty dirt by my feet, and there will be no return. โ€

"I will definitely banish you to some small island in Colchis and let the Agaya kill you." The blood on Demetrius' face rose like pig's liver, and he cried out.

"By the way, you know what, you just tried to cheat me into being chastity?" Adiana said in a frivolous tone, "Actually, my chastity has long been deceived by Calabis, and on the ship that came here, we even mingled day and night on the deck under the stars, poor bedbug, you can never compare to Calabis, I have verified it just now, I don't see Calabis for a day, I will fantasize about his heroic appearance on the bed, and constantly blaspheme myself." โ€

"Say no more! Please! Demetrius cried. (To be continued......)
