[You, who secretly disclosed Messalina's affair, not only successfully discredited Brittanicus's identity, but also rationalized Agrippina's marriage. ]
【But that’s not all you planned.】
【You have something more important to do. 】
[You took advantage of the momentum of this illegitimate child to approach Brittanicus and "inform" him of his father Claudius' "dissatisfaction" with him. ]
[Feeling his life threatened, the Crown Prince panicked and actually begged you, Nero's teacher, for a way to survive.]
[“Run away, run far away, and come back when the wind and the sea are calm,”]
[You answered.]
【So——】
[When the rumors about his illegitimate child were spreading, the crown prince actually fled the Roman capital overnight and disappeared without a trace.]
[This undoubtedly proves the truth of the rumor. ]
[You completed the task assigned to you by Agrippina in an extremely clever way, ensuring your status as Nero's only heir.]
[A few days later, under the influence of Agrippina's pillow talk, Claudius announced this matter in public.]
[The sixteen-year-old Nero replaced Brittanicus as his adopted son and officially became the crown prince.]
[When Claudius dies, she will become the Roman emperor - this is the dream you and she have been dreaming for more than ten years, and now it has become a reality.]
[After the ceremony, the excited Nero found an excuse to pester you. ]
"teacher."
Nero put his hands behind his back and looked at his teacher with a happy face.
In public, she was quite restrained and wouldn't cling to Ian like she did in private.
But in the realm of sound that only he could hear, the girl was still trying her best to show her love.
"Hmm~ Teacher, did I perform well today?"
"Yes, indeed, he already looks like an emperor."
"That--"
Nero looked around and confirmed that no one was looking at him and Ian, then he asked:
"Teacher, then logically speaking, shouldn't you reward me well?"
"Of course, I'll buy whatever you want now."
"Umm, you don't have to buy it."
"I just hope that the place where we meet tonight will not be the teacher's room."
"…Then where are we going?"
"Hmm~ Of course it's my room!"
As Nero said this, a mischievous light flashed in his eyes.

"..."
[Looking at Nero in front of you, you realize that she must have set some "traps" for you in this meeting. ]
[But even though you know this, you don't intend to refuse it. ]
[Because you know that no matter how bad Nero is, he will never harm you.]
[Her playfulness is limited to physical contact with you.]
"I see."
Ian accepted Nero's request for a meeting.
"I...will come to your room tonight."
"Hmm~" Nero's green eyes once again flashed a hint of mischief, "Then it's settled--!"
"If I don't see the teacher tonight, I will..."
"...you just?"
"I'm going to the teacher's room!"
"..."
"Haha." Ian laughed, "As expected of you - but don't worry, there won't be such an opportunity."
"Nero, I will definitely do what I promised you."
"Hmm~" Nero smiled sweetly, "I know."
"Teacher...never lies to me."
"See you tonight then~"
After saying this, Nero left alone.
It can be seen that she is not very interested in anyone other than Ian - this seems to include her biological mother Agrippina.
"..."
[You looked at Nero's back and fell into deep thought. ]
[You don't know whether it is good or bad to let Nero develop such a dependence on you. ]
[But one thing is certain - that is, Nero is at least on the path she wants. ]
[This is enough for you to temporarily ignore other things. ]
After calming himself down, Ian continued doing what he was supposed to do.
The first thing to do is to meet the current queen Agrippina.
of course.
Ian couldn't just go and meet her - that would be totally inconsistent with their identities.
If he did that, the focus of public opinion would immediately be on himself and her, and finally on Nero.
This is something to be avoided at all costs.
Thinking of this, Ian began to act cautiously - he didn't want Nero's path to becoming emperor to become precarious again because of his negligence.
[You begin to move carefully.]
[You avoided the gazes of everyone present and left the Senate along the route you had already planned.]
[You have arrived on the streets of the imperial capital of Rome. ]
[You walked into the dark alley and followed Agrippina's instructions to find the contact point she had described before.]
【But when you arrived there, you saw a strange figure. 】
That was someone Ian had never seen before.
I saw that the other person was wearing a purple coat with a hood that completely concealed his face.
"..."
Ian became alert.
He had not expected to see anyone other than Agrippina in a place like this.
A sense of crisis spread in the man's heart, prompting him to make the decision to leave in less than a second.
But something unexpected happened at this moment.
Just as Ian was about to leave, this figure who shouldn't be here spoke:
"Hey, where are you going?"
"I... saw you."
"..."
Just these simple words stopped Ian in his tracks.
There was no other way. He didn't want to expose his relationship with Agrippina, so he could only turn around and maintain his status as a teacher. He smiled and responded:
"...I just happened to pass by here. Sorry, I seem to have disturbed you."
"Just passing by?" The other party's voice became sharper. "Are you taking me for a fool?"
"Who would pass by here by chance?!"
"..."
She's a girl, but the way she speaks is a little strange.
Ian was not surprised that the other party would expose this point - after all, it was indeed the truth.
But he also prepared a corresponding argument.
"Yes, under normal circumstances, I really won't pass by here."
"But I did this for Lady Nero - she asked me to investigate these hard-to-find corners of Rome, hoping that I could do more with such details."
Of course not.
But compared to coming here on purpose, using Nero as an excuse is obviously a much more appropriate choice.
In this way, her image can also be consolidated.
However, what Ian never expected was that after hearing him mention Nero, the other party, who had been relatively calm, suddenly became excited.
She cried out:
"Lord Nero?! Are you talking about the girl who made everyone speechless in the Senate?!"
"..."
Although he felt that the other party's attitude seemed a little subtle, Ian nodded in order to keep his words consistent.
"Yes, you are right, it is her."
“That’s great—!”
The mysterious girl pounced towards Ian, and then sniffed the man's scent like a hungry wolf.
"Ah...what a wonderful scent."
"I seem to see Lord Nero standing in front of me."
"Yes, really?"
Ian realized that the other party seemed to be a loyal follower of Nero - this made him feel a little complicated.
After all, if such a character appears, it means that the early accumulation has begun to take effect.
Nero's accession to the throne will become smoother.
But on the other hand, it is relatively dangerous for such a strange person to become a believer.
Thinking of this, Ian asked directly:
"What's your name?"
"Locusta--Lo.custa!"
As if she was afraid that Ian didn't hear clearly, the girl in front of him, whose face was hidden by a large hood, emphasized her name twice.
"I see." The man nodded thoughtfully.
"Thank you for being so loyal to Lord Nero. She will definitely be very happy when she knows this."
"Hey, really? That's great."
"By the way--!" said Locusta, as he took out a mushroom from his coat, "Please try this--!"
"This is something that I think only people like you who have been close to Nero-sama to a certain extent and have tasted her can enjoy."
"..."
