"Is there anywhere else you want to go? The teacher will take you everywhere today."
"Great~" Little Nero's eyes were full of joy, and he even clapped excitedly.
"Teacher—go over there!"
"it is good."
The master and apprentice duo continued this wonderful journey on the streets.
[You and little Nero are wandering around the streets of Ubiolum.]
[She tasted many foods that her mother Agrippina would never allow her to eat.]
[Little Nero was quite excited about this - this feeling of being free from restraints was indeed very comfortable for her.]
"Ah——~"
Little Nero stretched out a string of grilled food in front of his "mount" Ian.
"Teacher, please have a bite~"
"No thanks." Ian declined the offer. "I bought this for you. The teacher won't eat it."
"Hmm!" Little Nero pouted.
"Teacher, you have to eat. Otherwise, isn't it just like me going out to play alone?"
"This……"
After listening to little Nero's words, Ian thought for a moment and nodded.
"Ok."
"Since you said so, take a bite."
"Hmm~ That's right!" Little Nero shook the food in front of Ian, "Teacher, eat it quickly!"
Ian took a small bite and then made his comment.
“It tastes really good.”
"Nero, your vision is still very good."
Faced with the praise from the teacher, little Nero suddenly asked a question that sounded quite strange after taking a bite of the place where Ian had bitten him.
"Teacher, have you swallowed it now?"
"..."
Although it seemed that the question was not as simple as it seemed, Ian still answered truthfully.
"Ah."
“How would I know it’s delicious if I didn’t do that?”
"Great~" Little Nero laughed happily, "In this case, the teacher is my accomplice - then you can't tell mother what I ate today!"
"Otherwise, the teacher will also be punished."
"..."
Listening to little Nero's obvious "conspiracy", Ian sighed helplessly.
"So Nero, is this why you're treating me to food?"
"No." Little Nero shook his head.
"It's true that I want to treat the teacher to good food, but it's also true that I don't want the teacher to tell on me."
"There is no contradiction between the two, right?"
"Nero, your intelligence in matters like this is truly admirable." Ian gave a rather helpless comment.
"Hmm~ Of course." Little Nero took it as a compliment.
Just as the two people, one big and one small, were chatting, a melodious music came over.
That's quite a pleasant sound.
[Someone in the distance is playing foreign music. ]
[This is a very common thing in Ubiolum - after all, as a Roman outpost, it accepts foreign culture much faster and to a much greater extent than those inner cities.]
[Those who dare to perform on the streets are generally those who are more confident in their own abilities and have a relatively high level of skills.]
You're sure this will be a good show.
[More importantly, though—]
【You sense that little Nero is very interested in this. 】
Her two calves were shaking - this was a movement that Ian could clearly feel at this moment.
But it’s not difficult to understand.
After all, they are still children, so it is quite natural for them to be interested in things that they don’t have the chance to see normally.
Thinking of this, Ian took the initiative to speak.
"Nero."
"What's the matter?" Little Nero replied quickly.
"Do you want to go to this show?" The man pointed out her inner thoughts directly. "If so, you'd better say it now."
"Otherwise, if a crowd gathers, there won't be any room for us."
"Yes, of course I do!" Little Nero kept shouting, shaking the food he had not finished eating in his hand.
"Teacher! Take me there quickly! I want to be at the front of the line!!!"
Hearing the tone that sounded like giving orders to a mount, Ian found it a little funny, but he could completely understand the idea.
After all, it was I who took the initiative to ask her if she wanted to go and listen.
"Well, let's go there now."
"Hmm~ Great!"
[You take Nero and head towards where the music is coming from.]
[The royal teacher has activated: The reputation you have accumulated over the years has come into play at this moment. ]
[You didn't spend too much effort and directly brought little Nero to the front of the crowd. ]
【You all enjoyed this musical performance together. 】
Just as Ian had just judged, little Nero had a strong interest in this musical performance.
Her two little feet were like little hammers, hitting the man's chest, making a series of popping sounds.
The little girl's hands were busy clenching - she was so selfless that she even forgot that she was still sitting on the teacher's shoulders.
Fortunately, Ian noticed this and grabbed her calves on both sides of her head in time to prevent her from falling backwards.
Although a lot of things happened, it has to be admitted that the level of this performance was indeed very high.
Not to mention little Nero, even Ian, the teacher, could feel the performers' care and dedication.
This is commendable behavior.
After ensuring that little Nero wouldn't fall, Ian also applauded.
But at this moment——
Little Nero suddenly leaned over Ian's head and asked him a question.
"Mr. Seneca, what are these instruments now?"
"Ok?"
Ian was stunned for a moment, then he realized that this was a sign that Nero wanted to understand these instruments better.
So he immediately started analyzing for his students.
"The one on the far left is the lyre, and a little further to the right is the kithara."
"The ones behind are the tuba and the French horn - and maybe the boucheille, which is an instrument quite similar to the French horn, but you won't know for sure until you actually touch it."
"The one on the far right should be something like an organ, but it sounds a little broken, probably quite old."
Listening to Ian's careful and serious analysis, little Nero's eyes were filled with admiration and surprise.
"Hmm~ Teacher, you are so amazing. You even know something like this?!"
"It's a matter of course." Ian did not feel complacent because of Nero's praise.
"Nero, I am your teacher. It is my inherent responsibility to understand this kind of thing and teach it to you."
"Hmm, that's right~"
Little Nero put his arms around Ian's neck and started rubbing against him.
"Then teacher, please stay with me from now on - you can remember these things for me, and then I don't have to remember them!"
"You are always smart when you are lazy." Ian said helplessly.
"But I can't promise you this - Nero, you have to study hard on your own."
"Hmm, that depends on whether I like it or not."
"If you don't like it... why bother learning it..."
Little Nero curled his lips and then continued to ask.
"Then teacher, why didn't the man in the middle take anything?"
"Because that is a chanter - this is a member of the player group. You can simply understand it as someone who sings along with the music."
"Oh?!" Little Nero blinked, then analyzed, "So he didn't learn a musical instrument, but he can still participate in the performance?"
"...I can't say that, but he certainly didn't use any musical instruments, that's an indisputable fact."
"That--!"
Little Nero pulled Ian's clothes with a happy look on his face, as if he had solved some problems of New China.
"Teacher, I want to sing too!"
"Uh?"
[You never expected Nero to make such a request at this time. ]
[But considering her excitement when she was listening to these performances just now, you realize that this is no accident.]
【Just as different people have different hobbies. 】
[Perhaps Nero's hobby is to participate in music performances like this. ]
[You are somewhat happy——because this is the first time you have come across something that you can let Nero learn, and she herself is very interested in it.]
[And she might be very talented at this kind of thing! ]
"Nero, are you serious?"
Ian asked as he looked at the performers who were taking a break.
"Do you...really want to go up and sing a song?"
"Yeah, that's right~!" Little Nero answered without hesitation, "Otherwise, why would I ask the teacher for this?!"
"..."
"Okay, Nero, wait here for me - the teacher will ask for you."
"Hmm~!"
A smile broke out on little Nero's face.
It was a joy that came from the heart and could not be concealed no matter what.
【You put little Nero aside for now. 】
【You negotiate with the performers to get her a chance to perform on stage.】
[You thought it would be difficult, but it turned out to be surprisingly easy. ]
[This is partly because Nero's noble status is still quite valuable in Ubiolum.]
