"Thank you for your hard work, unleashing your Noble Phantasm twice in such a short time." Lawrence patted Simonetta's head with a gentle smile.
"Mr. Samurai, Mr. Hijikata, Mashu, do you still have the strength?" Fujimaru Ritsuka walked over and asked with some concern.
"I didn't expend too much energy, but since the opponent is the strongest Heroic Spirit in a defensive battle, they went all out from the start." Zuo Cun wiped the sweat that had already run down his chin.
“Let’s go and support that little imperial girl,” Hijikata Toshizo said.
Although he has just unleashed his Noble Phantasm, his magical energy is still quite abundant.
"I'm counting on you." Ritsuka nodded.
The three Servant units went to support Nero, while Lawrence and Simonetta had exhausted too much mana over the past two days and would not participate in the subsequent battles.
There were no more Servant units among those soldiers. With Boudica, Spartacus, and Camilla included, the six Servants should be able to handle everything properly.
Once the few Servants who had gone to provide support had gone far away, Lawrence, carrying Simonetta on his back, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka.
After thinking for a moment, Lawrence decided to speak.
"Master... and Roman, are they there?"
"What's wrong, Miss Lawrence?" Fujimaru Ritsuka was rubbing her wrist.
"I'm here. Is there anything you need to report?" Roman appeared directly in image this time, looking at Lawrence.
"That's right. A few days ago, when Boudica left Gaul, he mentioned something to me."
“Nero is human, that’s undeniable, but… have you ever noticed that he sometimes falls into a daze?”
"It seems like that happened a few times. What's wrong, Miss Lawrence?" Fujimaru Ritsuka thought back and realized that Nero did seem to be prone to daydreaming.
"Boudica mentioned that whenever Nero is in a daze, a fleeting wisp of magical energy flashes through his body... To avoid alerting him, I didn't report this to my Master, but instead chose to observe it myself."
"What were the results of your observations?" Rome asked.
“There were indeed traces of magic detected, but... I haven’t figured out the reason for the appearance of magic yet, because... I observed something else.”
“Something...even more terrifying..."
Lawrence swallowed hard.
No... it wasn't so much terrifying as it was a love capable of destroying everything...
"...I understand. Then, we will conduct tests on Emperor Nero..." Dr. Roman said after thinking for a moment.
“No, don’t do that.” Lawrence interrupted Roman. “That thing is extremely unstable. It’s fine as it is now… fine… Master, what do you think?”
“I think…” Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her head, “Hmm… it’s still better to trust Nero-san.”
"...Since you both say so, then I will make a note of this matter and will not take any other measures." Roman nodded.
“Well, after all, she is still just a human girl, even though she is the emperor…” Lawrence sighed. “I will continue to keep an eye on this.”
"I understand."
After their conversation, as darkness fell, a somewhat disheveled Nero, accompanied by a group of Servants including Samura, returned to the area.
"It looks like those soldiers have been taken care of." Lawrence looked at Zuocun.
"It's alright. We joined up with the Gallic army and then wiped out all the mindless soldiers. Only a small number escaped." Zuo Cun looked quite tired.
"To commend your valiant performance, I will hold a celebratory banquet for you all upon our return to the capital of Rome! Be joyful and shout my name!" Having dealt a heavy blow to the enemy's morale and annihilated two of their emperors and a single follower within a few days, Nero was in extremely high spirits.
"...In short, let's continue to get along as before!" Lawrence said to Fujimaru Ritsuka with a smile.
......
late at night.
After a day of marching and fighting, a banquet was held, and everyone was quite exhausted.
Zuocun lay alone on the top of the palace, his hands behind his head, looking at the sky.
"What are you thinking about all by yourself here? Still thinking about your Miss Okita?" A female voice came from behind, followed by the sound of high heels clicking on the floor.
“...Caster.” Zuocun sat up and sighed.
"Assassin... Zuocun, I'll just call you that." Lawrence sat down not far from Zuocun.
"Sorry, it's probably because I got used to calling them 'classes' after participating in the Holy Grail War before, so I tend to call them that when I'm alone..." Zuocun shook his head with a smile.
"You participated in the Holy Grail War before? Were you summoned before?" Lawrence asked curiously.
Zuocun nodded: "Yes, but... I'm sure it's not this timeline."
"So did you win that Holy Grail War? With your strength, it would be quite difficult for you to lose in a one-on-one fight."
"We lost," Zuo Cun said bluntly.
"Huh? You're so embarrassing." Lawrence chuckled strangely.
"What are you laughing at?" Zuo Cun rolled his eyes. "I wasn't the only one who participated in that Holy Grail War. If you're so capable, you do it."
"Huh? Never mind then. You should know that my combat ability is very weak among the differentiated individuals, right?" Lawrence broke out in a cold sweat. "I'm no match for any of you."
The two remained silent for a while.
"You should be able to sense it too... the presence of a beast lurking in this singularity." Zuocun glanced at Lawrence.
"Nonsense, I've already locked onto the auras of both beasts." Lawrence smirked.
"Then why..." Zuo Cun was a little dumbfounded.
“Beast VI, the Babylonian prostitute, always lurked in the heart of that emperor.”
"And the other one... at least for now, is an entity that does not harbor any ill will towards Chaldea (humanity)."

Chapter 452 Jing Ke, Lü Bu
"So it seems... we've lost three more Heroic Spirits...?"
A hint of annoyance appeared on Rafe's face.
"Is this your method, magician from another realm..." A powerful voice, tinged with sarcasm, said, "My (Rome's) resilience will absolutely exceed your imagination."
"Hmph, what exactly are you so proud of?" Rafe scoffed. "That little girl is also your enemy. She's so troublesome, are you happy about that?"
"You should be happy!" The voice of the man on the throne boomed. "No parent wouldn't be happy for their child's excellence, and that includes me (Rome)!"
"The more radiant and powerful she is, the more prosperous Rome will be!"
"...Hmph, what utter nonsense." Rafe didn't look at the person on the throne.
He walked to the summoning circle and flipped his right hand.
A golden light flashed.
That is—the Holy Grail.
"It is now necessary to increase our combat strength... So let's perform another Heroic Spirit Summoning."
The Holy Grail reflected the light of the summoning circle, and before long, the figure of a heroic spirit appeared in the center of the summoning circle.
"My class is Rider, so are you my Master?"
He was a handsome young man with red hair.
The young man was full of vigor, with a short sword hanging at his waist and a resolute expression.
"Whoever you are, I have something I need you to do." Rafe looked at the young heroic spirit expressionlessly. "I've added something to the summoning circle; it will only summon heroic spirits skilled in leading troops into battle. In other words—"
"Ah, I'm very good at this." The boy nodded with a smile.
"Hmph... Then go prove your abilities. I will lend you a mass-produced army. Give me—kill the Roman emperor, Nero Claudius, and let this era completely collapse!" Rafe commanded with a maniacal smile.
"Is that so? Well then... let me grant your wish." The boy revealed a sunny smile, but it carried an undeniable air of bloodshed.
......
"What do you mean by saying it poses no threat to humanity?" Zuo Cun looked at Lawrence with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot. "We should know the nature of the Beast better than anyone else. After all, we are all too familiar with that guy who was exiled to another dimension."
“I understand, but it is a special being, possessing sufficient rationality and with thoughts closer to humans... perhaps there is only one.” Lawrence shook his head.
"...You are the one among us who understands everything most deeply. Since you say there's no problem, then I will believe you." Zuo Cun nodded. "So, what should we do now?"
“We don’t need to do anything. I’ve already asked █, and as long as we don’t disturb the Beast VI lurking inside the Emperor, there won’t be any problems… That’s not the issue we need to address right now.” Lawrence held up a finger. “Think about it, the weapons for dealing with the Beast haven’t even arrived here yet, which means that the Beast here is harmless for the time being. Right now, for me and for us, the more important thing is to assist Master Fujimaru Ritsuka in repairing this singularity.”
"Alright then, I'm going back to rest." Zuo Cun stood up and jumped down.
Lawrence was the only one left on the roof.
Lawrence gazed at the night sky for two minutes, then went back.
If Samura can yearn for Okita-san under the night sky, then... what about me?
......
"Ah, good morning, Fujimaru Ritsuka, the Governor-General!" Nero sat on the throne, looking at Ritsuka who was still yawning.
"Good morning, Your Majesty," Lawrence said respectfully.
“Yes, no need for formalities. My other unit is about to return to Rome, and I believe they have obtained enough intelligence!” Nero said excitedly.
"Another... army?" Fujimaru Ritsuka looked suspicious.
"Your Majesty, didn't you say that the armies in all places except Gaul were already in trouble?" Camilla frowned and looked at Nero.
"Huh? Did I mention that...?" Nero looked somewhat flustered. "Ah... I may have forgotten to tell you, but there is indeed another army active on another battlefield."
“Is that so…” Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her face.
"The generals of that army, like you, are dressed in otherworldly clothing, and their names... seem to be Jing Ke and Lü Bu," Nero said after a moment's thought.
"Jing Ke and... Lü Bu?!" Dr. Roman exclaimed in surprise.
"So, there are two more Servants fighting for His Majesty Nero?!" Mash was also very surprised.
"Your Majesty—" At that moment, a soldier ran into the palace.
"What happened? Have soldiers from the United Empire attacked again?" Nero stood up from his throne, his expression furious.
"No... it's General Jing Ke and General Lü Bu who are being besieged by the enemy not far outside the city! Because of their numbers, they are currently requesting reinforcements!"
