Chapter 342: Romulus

Together, we looked under the walls.

Sure enough, there was a neat army stationed at the gate, exuding a strong temperament.

Unlike the soldiers in Rome, who were smiling and enjoying life, the soldiers outside the city all had solemn expressions and cold eyes.

On them, they can even feel the murderous aura and even blood that is unique to the battlefield.

"These guys ......"

Nero looked at all this condescendingly, and his brow gradually furrowed.

Although their attire is similar to that of the soldiers in Rome, they are completely different in temperament and appearance!

Just looking at it from a distance, it seems that clouds and uneasiness will rise in the bottom of my heart.

——

"Click-"

The armies, which were neatly arranged, suddenly parted from the middle.

A man slowly walked out of the gap of about two meters.

It was an extremely muscular and tall man, and even from such a distance, you could really feel his majesty.

His skin was dark, and his covered helmet obscured his appearance.

Coming to the front of the army, the man took off his helmet without saying a word.

Suddenly, his face was also exposed to the gaze of everyone present.

“——!”

Nero, who was beside me, had an expression of disbelief the moment he saw the man's face.

The man below stepped forward, his majestic voice low and imposing.

"O people of Rome, I am Romulus, the son of Mars and the princess Sylvia, the founder of Rome! Now hurry up and open the gates of the city to welcome my return. ”

His voice rumbled in everyone's ears like thunder.

"How could it be...... Lord Divine Ancestor, it really came...... This kind of thing...... Yu never thought about ......"

Nero's lips turned white and his body trembled.

"Nero, calm down. Now that you are in control of Rome, don't let him distract you. ”

I quickly and secretly grasped Nero's slender hand and said with a slight force.

"Ah...... That's right, the performer is right. "It seems that my actions have played a role, Nero came back to his senses and nodded quickly," Yu ...... Yu is the emperor of Rome, even if he is the ancestor of God...... Also ......"

"Nero Claudius, one of the descendants of Rome in my posterity, was a tyrant who made a name for himself with his reckless deeds and love of art." Romulus suddenly raised his head, and a pair of blood-red eyes looked straight at Nero, "Why don't you lead all the citizens of Rome out of the city and give me a grand welcome to my return?" ”

"Lord Divine Ancestor...... I...... It's not disrespectful to the gods. In the face of Romulus's rebuke, Nero appeared a little flustered and overwhelmed, "It's just...... It was too sudden, and Yu ...... I just got briefed again, so ......"

"What nonsense!"

Before Nero could finish speaking, Romulus raised his voice and forcibly interrupted her words.

"Divine Ancestor......

Nero's bloodless lips trembled.

"Do you remember why I helped you escape from the Throne of the Immortal and allow you to come into the world?" Romulus's tone was stern and categorical, "You have promised me that you will first rebuild Rome in the Nether, and then welcome me to come, when I will once again rule the world in the name of the Emperor!" What I said at the beginning, I forgot it so quickly?! ”

"Nero, you ......"

I turned my head to look at her in amazement.

"I'm sorry, performer, but Yu lied about this." Nero's face was full of guilt, "But please believe that Yu is definitely not what Qing imagined!" ”

"Nero Claudius, the son of Gnaeus, cousin of the fourth Emperor Claudius, and Agrippina, sister of the tyrant Caligula, born to the name of the Emperor." Romulus's voice rang majestically around him like a bell, "I give you one more chance, and now open the gates of the city and welcome me into the city of Rome!" Thou shalt also know that thy humble origins are not worthy of being the ruler of Rome at all. But if you stop at this moment, he will sponsor you the same status as other Roman emperors in the Throne of the Immortal! ”

"Yu ...... Yu is just ...... I don't want to see any more bloodshed and sacrifice...... Nero lowered his head and said in a sad voice, "If the Divine Ancestor becomes the Roman Emperor of this era, I am afraid that I will have to fight in all directions and lose my life...... As for the emperor's name, Yu also knew that Yu was unworthy. That's just ...... It is the product of his mother's conspiracy and poisonous schemes, and Yu is only ...... Thinking of being responsible to the citizens, we can't let Yu's tragedy implicate ordinary people...... I...... I really don't want to see those sad things anymore......"

"Hmph, having said so much, it's not like holding the emperor's power to the death! No matter how nice it sounds, it's not that I betrayed me in selfishness! ”

Romulus snorted heavily.

“……”

Nero shuddered.

"I'm so stupid to trust a person like you who doesn't have the character that an emperor should have!" Romulus continued, his eyes full of disdain, "Sure enough, I am right to lead all the Roman heroes to reject you. Thou shalt never expect to be recognized by me!" ”

"Divine Ancestor, I'm sorry ......"

No matter what Romulus said, Nero kept his head down and apologized, looking like he might cry at any moment.

"So, why does Nero have to get your approval?"

Without even thinking about it, my words burst straight through my throat and reached Romulus below.

“……”

Romulus's expression became gloomy for a moment.

"Performer! Are you crazy, that's the ancestor of Rome! Nero was taken aback, looking at me with an expression that had never been more anxious than ever, "Hurry up and apologize to him...... The Divine Ancestor's blame is something that no one can afford......"

"Thou ...... Who is it? Romulus squinted at me, "This is a conversation between me Romulus, the founder of Rome, and Nero Claudius, a descendant, in what capacity do you dare to interject at will, or even question me?" ”

"Don't worry, it's okay." I patted the back of Nero's hand lightly and smiled to comfort her, "If you don't have the right position to say, leave it to me." ”

Then, without fear, I raised my eyes and met Romulus, who was glaring at me.

"I don't have any identity, I'm just an ordinary person. However, there is really no way to agree with your words, so I just object. ”

"Although you are the founder of Rome, the origin of Roman civilization. But Nero is Nero, and only she can decide her own affairs, and it is not the turn of others to make irresponsible comments. Even if it is you, you only have the name of your ancestor, but you can't command her as an ancestor! ”
