"Who is it?"

Hearing that voice, everyone present became vigilant and looked for the source of the other party.

Click-click-click-

On the city wall, a figure slowly walked out.

It was an old man who looked very old, with a lot of wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were still very smart.

His body was straight, dressed in a holy white papal gown, and the delicate cross embroidered on his chest was eye-catching.

"Pope Leo! It turns out that Qing has been fine! Nero breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the old man appear, and looked much happier.

"Don't move here, I'll check the situation."

I said a word to the people around me, and then quickly moved to Nero's side.

"Performer? This is the middle of the battlefield, and it's very dangerous, so go back quickly! ”

Nero's eyes were full of excitement when she saw me appear, but she still urged me to go back based on reason.

"Don't worry, as long as I retreat, no one can touch me." I shook my head, then asked, "...... Who is the man on the wall? Are you familiar with each other? ”

"Of course, that's the current Pope of the Roman Empire, Lord Leo!" Nero lowered his voice and explained to me, and to the others beside me, "Yu came to Rome only because of his great help. And he has always respected and appreciated Yu's policy. It was with such an enlightened pope that Rome was able to unite and prosper! ”

"So, is he his own?"

I looked up at the Pope, named Leo, and for some reason I was always uneasy.

Everything is too logical, I'm afraid there is a problem.

——

"I'm so sorry, Your Holiness Pope! It's all useless to me. Give me a little more time and I'll be able to ......."

However, when he saw the Pope, Richard's face turned pale and he knelt down on one knee.

"I've given you enough time, but you've challenged my patience again and again!" Pope Leo interrupted without hesitation, and directly rebuked angrily, "You still bear the name of King Lionheart, but you can't even deal with a useless former Roman emperor." You can't do such a simple thing, no wonder you have to be suppressed by the reputation of the Knight King forever! ”

"It's useless...... Emperor? When Nero heard this, he was stunned, "Your Excellency Leo, could it be that there is something that has not been done well and disappointed Qing......

"Naive Emperor Nero, I was completely disappointed in you from the beginning!" Leo's eyes narrowed, and he said mercilessly, "I was overjoyed when I received a message from the Holy Grail that you were coming to earth. Rome has been dormant for too long, and successive emperors have been soft eggs in name only, only carrying out the original decrees of peace. At that time, I thought that if the incomparable tyrant Nero had come, he would have been able to sweep away Rome's cowardice and completely break the situation of weakness. ”

“…… But I never imagined that the famous tyrant Nero would appear as a wayward little girl, and he was a pacifist through and through! Leo's eyes showed a deep mockery, "Where have you gone for the burning of Rome and the murder of civilians with lions, which will be deeply feared by future generations?" It turned into an endless concert tour in the city? If I knew you were one of those useless creatures, I would rather not respond to the Holy Grail in the first place! ”

"This ...... At first, Qing didn't say that at all...... "Nero looked completely stunned, "Yu still remembers that Qing accepted Yu's arrival with the grandest welcome ceremony of the Holy See. And...... No matter what decrees Yu issued, they were all approved by the secretary...... Yu Mingming...... From beginning to end, I have always respected Qing very much, and I have considered Qing's opinions and demands at all times......"

"Hmph, the wood is already in the boat, since you have come, even if I have a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart, how can I show it?" Pope Leo's face showed a full sneer, "After all, you are a real heroic spirit, if I don't follow you in everything, if you go crazy to take my life, it is estimated that all the defenders in the entire city of Rome will be able to stop you!" ”

“…… Luckily, two months later, I received the Holy Grail again, and the great Roman Patriarch, Romulus, had arrived! ”

"What!? Lord Divine Ancestor will appear in the city of Rome and attack, is it actually the result of Qing's internal assistance? ”

Nero gasped and looked at Leo with a completely different look.

"Exactly, Romulus is a warrior and full of the desire to fight, and he is the most suitable Roman hero to unify the world!" Leo folded his arms around his chest and said, "But that guy is stupid enough, he was so impressed and persuaded by you in just a few words, and returned to the Throne of the Immortal without even leaving a trace, it's really useless!" ”

"Qing ...... No, do you want to humiliate the great god of Rome, and use him as a tool to conquer the world? ”

Nero's body trembled, and he bit his lip and turned pale.

"Nero, calm down."

Without even thinking about it, I just opened my arms and took Nero into my arms.

“……”

Artoria's lips moved, but she didn't say anything after all.

"Cut, no matter how famous the Heroic Spirit is, it is just a tool that can be used by people who have died." Leo didn't care about Nero's thoughts at all, shrugged his shoulders and said, "But you did a really beautiful job, since even Romulus showed mercy to your subordinates, and even returned to the Throne of the Heroic Soul to restrain the Roman camp from attacking you, then even if I summon more Roman Heroic Spirits in the future, it will be impossible to use them against you." ”

"So, I was forced to summon your current opponent, Richard, known as the Lionheart King in later generations! Although his heart was in Rome, he belonged to the British camp, and while avoiding the restrictions of Romulus, he was also able to be protected by both places. As a Heroic Spirit that can be driven, it is truly a perfect existence! ”

"Richard, looking at you, you don't already know about the Pope's plans, right?" Artoria looked at Richard, who was half-kneeling on the ground, frowned and said, "Even so, you still choose to be his pawn?" ”

"Yes, I willingly." Richard took a deep breath and said, "I know that I am just his tool, and even if I succeed in unifying the world, I will eventually hand over a lot of results to him." ”

"But...... As long as I can make all the people in the world believe in chivalry because of this, let the sun shine to every corner, and put an end to war and misfortune, I am willing to be driven! ”
