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

This was the treatment her father Claudius had never received, but now it was blooming like a rose on the land of Rome.

"What's the point of their support!" Agrippina shouted sternly, "Seneca, don't you forget who the foundation of Rome is?! If this continues... there will definitely be problems!

"Madam, are you questioning His Majesty's choice?" Ian asked back.

"So what if I question it?"

Agrippina drank the red wine in her glass.

"Seneca, don't forget - Nero is only seventeen years old. All her choices are immature and full of childish thoughts."

"If you agree with her, it would be equivalent to destroying the country of Rome!"

"No ma'am," Ian shook his head.

"You know so little about Her Majesty—you have no idea how much she has worked to be worthy of the title of Roman Emperor."

"What's the point of working in the wrong direction?!" Agrippina shouted again.

It can be seen that she strongly disagrees with Ian's idea.

But the man was equally unmoved.

He who loved her had witnessed Nero’s changes along the way - she was working hard!

"No, ma'am, I assure you that it is not the wrong direction, and I hope you can trust your majesty."

"..."

"..."

Ian and Agrippina looked at each other, and their gradually diverging gazes told of the conflict between them.

"Seneca—are you going to side with Nero no matter what?"

"Yes, ma'am, I am always on the same side as your majesty."

"Heh." Agrippina sneered, "Then I hope you are lucky and capable enough to deal with everything that comes next - not just the sexual desire of your lower body."

"of course."

[You and Agrippina have had a very serious disagreement.]

【You know a political struggle is inevitable. 】

[The backing of the gifted emperor has been obtained: You have become the most powerful supporter of Nero's reforms, which will change your choices in many moments in the future. ]

[You realize that this is not something you can handle alone.]

[You want to talk to Nero about this.]

[You——need her help. ]

late at night.

Ian and Nero walked hand in hand along the walls of Rome.

No one would come here to disturb them at this time, so it was the best time for a tryst.

The bright moonlight shines through the green cracks in the city wall, reflecting waves of rugged terrain that look like lake light.

Nero had always been good at appreciating such beautiful things, and this made her feel much better.

"Teacher, the moonlight is so beautiful tonight~"

"……Yes."

"Hmm~" The girl pointed to the moon in the sky, "If only I could use my status as an emperor to make the moon look this beautiful every night--!"

Ian laughed at this simple yet unrealistic wish.

"Nero, that's not realistic."

"If you really did that, you would not be an emperor, but a god."

"The teacher finally smiled~"

Nero grabbed Ian's hand and used her proud breasts to rub him like a lover.

"I thought this kind of thing wouldn't make the teacher happy - after all, the teacher has always seemed to be worried lately."

"..."

Ian was stunned for a moment, but soon understood.

Just like what Nero said before - because he cares from the bottom of his heart, he can quickly notice even the smallest changes.

Just when Ian was deeply touched, the young emperor spoke again.

"Teacher...are you hiding something from me?"

"if you can--"

The girl stopped and looked at the man holding her hand with deep affection, her eyes filled with infinite attachment to him.

"Please tell me everything."

"..."

[Nero's needs at this moment are completely consistent with your ideas. ]

[You didn't hesitate any longer.]

[You told her what Nero's mother Agrippina said.]

"This……"

Nero never expected that his mother would say such a thing about him in private.

"Teacher, are you kidding me?"

"Is Yu's decision a joke in her mind?"

"Nero, I also want to tell you that this is fake." Ian sighed, trying to suppress his inner resentment.

"But unfortunately—"

“This is all true.”

"Your mother is quite dissatisfied with what you have done in recent times."

"..."

Nero was silent at first, and it was obvious that he felt very sad about his mother's denial.

But soon, she let out a long breath and cheered up.

"Whatever - I don't care."

"not give a damn about?"

"That's right." Nero raised his head and met his teacher's gaze, his eyes filled with a confidence that was completely different from before.

"The only opinion I care about is the teacher's."

"The rest of the people, even my mother, don't matter - I don't intend to take their feelings into consideration. It means nothing to me."

"I... am the Emperor of Rome. I don't need to report to them when I do things!"

"..."

Ian thought Nero would be depressed for a while because of what her mother did, but he didn't expect that she would resolve her inner conflict so quickly.

"Nero, you really are becoming more and more like an emperor."

"Teacher, you can't say that!" The girl smiled confidently, "I'm not 'like', I am the Emperor of Rome!"

"Makes sense."

Ian stroked Nero's head with some joy.

"This time, the teacher is wrong."

"Hmm~ I'm glad to know!"

Nero pulled Ian to the edge of the city wall, and the white moonlight fell on the two of them like a silver gauze.

"I really want to sing a song today!"

"Then sing," Ian encouraged. "You haven't spoken for a long time, have you?"

"Umm, that's right! I'm going to sing tonight!"

It is still a heart-wrenching physical song.

Ian felt like his head was about to be blown apart - but seeing how cute and serious Nero looked when he sang, it all didn't seem so unbearable.

"Hmm! How is it?!" the girl asked again, "Is Yu's singing as beautiful as always?"

"……probably."

"Then the teacher will listen to Yu singing for the rest of his life, right?"

"Yes, I will."

[You and Nero kissed under the moonlight.]

【You have become people on the same front at this moment. 】

[You will all face the pressure coming at you like a tide.]

[Although the situation is much more dangerous than before - after all, this time we are really going to fight against Agrippina. ]

【But you find yourself feeling a lot more relaxed than before. 】

[If you think about it carefully, you probably feel that you have completely understood Nero's determination and realized that she has become someone you can rely on. ]

Agrippina's threats were no joke.

As Nero's mother and the wife of the previous emperor, she used various means to gather considerable power in Rome.

The nobles, who had already been critical of Nero's policies, would naturally not miss this opportunity to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

For a time, voices opposing Nero's pro-popular policies emerged from every corner of the Senate, blowing towards the young emperor like a strong wind.

however--

Nero, who received recognition from his teacher Ian, showed resilience like fire.

Her rose-like speech was like a sharp thorn that hit back at those profit puppets who were driven by her mother.

"Your Majesty, you should ensure that our wealth is not harmed by those commoners."

"I will do so - but the premise is that everyone's interests are guaranteed. Only when the citizens are prosperous can the nobles have a future."

"Your Majesty, if the late emperor saw you defending those despicable blades... he would definitely regret handing over the Roman Empire to you."

"I never worry about such things - because the people of Rome will convince my father for me."

[No matter what kind of verbal attack he faced, Nero was determined to use the "people" to fight back. ]

[As a skilled debater, she knew this was an impeccable starting point—no noble dared to stand up and deny such a thing, because that would mean confronting tens of thousands of Roman citizens.]

[For a time, the internal situation of the Roman capital fell into a stalemate. ]

[It can be said that Nero temporarily blocked the "attack" from his mother Agrippina with his own strength. 】

【And at the same time, you didn’t come either. 】

[While neither side can find more reasons to attack the other, you have recruited citizens in the Roman capital who have sworn allegiance to Nero.]

[Although this kind of external support may not be powerful at a single time, it is powerful enough. ]

[After a month of debate, momentum began to turn in Nero's favor.]

[It seems like you have won - but you know, the real trouble is yet to come.]

[Agrippina would never allow things to develop in a direction that would benefit her daughter.]

[As a vicious woman who killed her three husbands in a row, she is good at the miraculous thing called "magic", so she must have a bigger killer move. ]

【You realize you have to prepare something in advance. 】

but--

This kind of thing may sound simple, but when you actually start to act on it, you'll find that you have no idea what to do.

You have to know that "magic" was an extremely rare thing in that era, otherwise, it would not be possible that Agrippina killed two husbands in succession and no one could notice anything was wrong.
