In the world of Type-Moon, start by becoming Morgan's husband!

"So that's how it is... But who is the man next to her?"

"It seems to be Seneca - I heard he was her teacher, a famous sage on the border."

"It seems that the emperor still attaches great importance to Rome. Our good days are coming!"

Wherever Nero went, comments like this were heard.

Obviously, the previous emperor Claudius would not do such a thing, which is why it has caused such widespread discussion at this moment.

"Hmm~"

Nero seemed very happy to be the focus of everyone's attention.

She was born to be an actress who craves attention, and the current situation is actually what she wanted.

but--

If you really want to think about it, the real reason why Nero was happy was that he could go out with Ian openly like this.

That would make her feel like a newlywed couple receiving everyone's blessings.

"Teacher, Yu's plan was successful, right?"

"……Yes."

"Hmm, I am indeed a natural born emperor!"

"……really."

Ian's two perfunctory words made Nero a little dissatisfied. She turned around and found that the man was writing something.

"Teacher, what are you doing..."

"I'm recording what I've seen along the way." Ian made no secret of his purpose.

"Nero, I really enjoy walking around Rome with you."

"But - we can't let this make us forget what we really need to do."

"You are the emperor of this empire."

"..."

Hearing Ian's words, Nero's expression gradually became serious.

"Yeah...you're right."

"I am the emperor of Rome!"

[Your words are still quite useful to Nero. ]

[In the following time, she listened carefully to the needs of the people, just like you.]

[This was unprecedented—at least no emperor before Nero had ever attempted this.]

[After all, the emperor represents the rights of the nobles, not the common people.]

[And it is precisely because of this that you and Nero realized that the Roman Empire you took over was far less powerful than you had imagined.]

[There are many problems waiting for you to solve them yourself. ]

[You walked like this for a whole day, until the sun set, and then ended today's journey. ]

Inside the Roman Baths.

Because of Nero's arrival, the civilians who should have been here had already left early.

Because of this, they didn't know that Ian actually followed Nero into the bathhouse.

This is a gift from God and a rare opportunity for a tryst.

But Ian soon discovered that the situation was not the same as usual.

Nero... fell silent.

That's right.

Just as Ian saw, Nero at this moment had completely lost the lively look he had when they were together in private.

Instead, she was leaning against the edge of the bathtub, lifeless, looking as if she had suffered a heavy blow.

Of course it is impossible for men not to notice this.

He quickly moved over and gently placed the girl's head on his shoulder.

"What's wrong? You look so unhappy?"

"..."

Nero took Ian's arm and muttered quietly and guiltily.

"Teacher, there are so many questions...Is there anything I can't solve?"

"..."

[You know what Nero is talking about—that's what you gathered today.]

【The Roman Empire at this moment is actually far from being so glamorous. 】

[In the imperial capital alone, a large number of problems have been listed. ]

[You realize that this dilemma makes Nero begin to doubt whether he can solve it. ]

"so--?"

Ian stroked Nero's head and his tone became gentler.

"Are you going to run away?"

"...I don't know." Nero shook his head.

"You mean you haven't made a decision yet, right?"

"Ah."

"Then the teacher can't let you on top today." Ian replied.

"Hmm?!" Nero raised his head suddenly, "Why?!"

"Because Nero, who lacks confidence, has no appeal to me at all."

Ian reached out and gently stroked the girl's cheek.

"There is only one image of Nero in my mind - that is, an extremely confident Roman emperor who believes he can solve everything."

"Nero, I'll give you another chance to choose."

"Do you...want to be the emperor of Rome?"

"..."

Realizing that it was Ian who was encouraging him, the fire in Nero's heart that had been extinguished by reality began to burn again.

She nodded, and then said very seriously: "Of course I want to be the emperor of Rome!"

"Very good, this is the Nero I know."

“Don’t worry that you can’t solve these problems—the teacher will definitely help you.”

"Umm~ I know!"

"But then again—" Nero looked down at the man, his face slightly red.

"I... don't think I've ever tried any other methods."

"How about giving it a try today?"

"May I?"

"Of course." Ian glanced at the slate beside him and said, "Nero, this is my gift to you - congratulations, you have finally become the emperor of Rome as you wished."

"Hmm~ Then I'll have to feel it well."

【You taught Nero a good lesson. 】

[You two are in love again.]

[Finally, a white rose bloomed in the Roman baths - it was as beautiful as the rose and made your heart beat just as fast.]

[This experience also made Nero begin to doubt whether he should relax a little bit because of his obsession. ]

【But these are all your private secrets. 】

【Nero, who had grasped the current situation in Rome, began to issue a series of policies that were beneficial to the people in the name of the emperor. 】

[These include measures to deal with forged wills, and to limit the upper limit of defense fees in lawsuits, in order to prevent the powerful from using the law to exploit the common people unequally.]

【This is an unprecedented situation.】

[The enthusiasm of the people was quickly aroused, and for a while they were vying for work.]

【But not everyone supports such behavior. 】

【On this day, Agrippina came to you. 】

402. Nero's oath under the moon/Increasingly tense situation/Mysterious visitor (4k)

[You knew this day would come sooner or later.]

[After all, Nero's reforms did not fall in the direction of favoring the nobility - this was something that no emperor before her had ever attempted.]

【But as Nero's teacher, you know this is a decision she made after careful consideration. 】

[No matter what, you must stand by her side. ]

【With this thought in mind, you came to Agrippina's room. 】

As Nero's biological mother, after her daughter became the youngest emperor in Roman history, her status also rose and she became a regent queen in a sense.

Thanks to this identity, Agrippina's behavior became more and more rampant.

The tone she used towards other people on a daily basis could be described as extremely impolite, and she exuded an indescribable arrogance inside and out.

At this moment, Agrippina, who was sitting in the room, was shaking the glass of red wine and asked as if questioning:

"Seneca, you should know that Nero has recently issued a series of policies, right?"

"Yes, ma'am." Ian nodded. "After all, Her Majesty has many wonderful ideas. If she doesn't verify them one by one, she will never stop."

"But some of the plans are obviously not right, right?"

Agrippina looked at Ian, her mud-like eyes revealing a hint of venom.

"It's fine if Nero doesn't know, but as a teacher, can't you notice it?"

"..."

You are not stupid.

[When Agrippina said these words, you realized that she was targeting the starting point of Nero's policy.]

[The Roman emperor should have favored the interests of the nobles instead of considering the common people.]

【But this is exactly what you want to bring up today. 】

"Madam, I do notice that your Majesty's policies are a little different."

Ian met Agrippina's chilling gaze.

"But I don't think there's anything wrong with what your majesty has done - at least not so far."

"..."

Agrippina sneered.

"Seneca, what makes you think so? Just because Nero is the one you like, does that mean everything she does is right?"

"..."

"If you think so, Madam, I have no way to change it." Ian replied modestly, "But in fact, the people of Rome are very supportive of your Majesty's policies, aren't they?"

This is not a fact Ian fabricated to refute Agrippina.

In fact, in the month since Nero issued his new policy, the city's people's favorability towards her has skyrocketed.

Poems or articles praising her were often passed around the city of Rome and then recorded.
