He...what happened?!
415. Boudica's First Kiss Rescue Operation/Many Misunderstandings/Heart-to-Heart (4k)
This was something Boudica had not expected.
She never imagined that the man who had just been praising the tyrant Nero in front of her would become like this the next moment.
His face was pale, his expression was in pain, his body was shaking constantly, and he looked like he would die at any moment.
What is going on here?
Boudica was still thinking about the reason for all this, but she noticed one thing out of the corner of her eye - that is, the door of the cell was open at the moment.
If you want to run, now is the best time!
Maybe, we can organize another offensive.
Thinking of this, Boudica stood up and prepared to escape.
only--
When she reached the cell door, she stopped there.
The Queen of Britannia turned around and looked at the man who was still struggling on the ground, with a hint of hesitation in her emerald eyes.
Am I really going to leave like this?
This guy...will die here.
Boudica didn't know why she had such an idea at this moment, but she found that her legs were like tied with sandbags during training, and she could hardly move even half a step.
At this moment, Ian grabbed the haystack beside him and shouted out the truest wish from the bottom of his heart with all his might.
"Save me...I don't want to die yet."
"..."
Just with this short sentence, Boudica felt as if something had hit her heart.
"Really...why would you want to save him?"
The Queen of Britannia gave up the idea of escaping at this moment, and returned to Ian's side, leaned down, and asked softly:
"What's wrong with you?"
"My heart hurts so much...it feels like it's going to break apart."
Hearing the man's words, Boudica felt her heart tighten as well - it was a rather incongruous feeling, but at the moment it seemed so normal.
"Will this be better?"
As Boudica spoke, she picked up Ian from the ground and let him lie on her lap.
Then she reached out her hand and gently pressed the area where the other person's heart was.
This was not something Boudica did casually - as someone who had personally trained Britannian warriors, she naturally had a lot of experience in dealing with emergencies.
She didn't know the principle behind it, she just understood that "this works."
This was indeed the case. With Boudica's repeated pressure, Ian, who had originally been pale, gradually recovered.
But his breathing still seemed very difficult and it was obvious that he was still in extreme pain.
Faced with this situation, Boudica looked around and after confirming that she and he were the only ones here, she did something that she shouldn't have done at this time.
She took a deep breath, then lowered her head and kissed the man gently.
This is not about the exchange of sexual desire, nor is it a sudden love affair. It is just a kind queen doing her best when facing the suffering of others.
【This is Boudica's best effort to rescue. 】
[The power of the goddess Andrast came into play at this moment. ]
[The magic power in Boudica's body is transferred to you at an unimaginable speed. ]
[This allowed you, who were originally trapped in Agrippina's curse, to recover temporarily.]
"..."
When Ian opened his eyes, he saw Boudica covering her chest with her hands and closing her eyes, kissing him in the most shy and innocent way.
The man was stunned.
He had never expected something like this to happen - after all, he believed that the loyalty in his body to Nero would never change.
Now...it seems to have been cracked in some clever way.
Boudica also felt Ian's gaze. She opened her eyes, and when she found that he had woken up, she immediately stopped kissing him.
Then, she shrank back onto the haystack beside her at a speed beyond imagination and began to explain hesitantly.
"You, don't misunderstand!"
"I wasn't kissing you just now, I was just..."
Boudica was too embarrassed to continue. After all, kissing was indeed shameful to her, but saving her enemy was not much better either.
After all... I should have just walked away!
Why did you want to save him? !
While Boudica was still struggling with her inner choice, Ian's voice came first.
It was a thank you from the heart: "Queen Boudica, thank you."
"You are really kind."
As polite and sensible as ever, he makes people feel like a cloud floating in the sky, within reach but out of reach.
This made Boudica calm down quickly.
"This isn't kindness, nor is it saving you. I just did something that I shouldn't have done."
"No." Ian shook his head, then got up and sat on the haystack opposite Boudica.
"I have always felt that Queen Boudica is a kind person - even if you didn't save me just now, I still think so."
"After all, even though you were betrayed by the people of Britannia, you still chose to take up arms and fight for them, didn't you?"
"..."
[Your words touched Boudica's heart.]
[The Queen of Britannia, who usually treats you and Nero coldly, has a slightly different attitude.]
You realize this is a good time to communicate.
"Can we chat, Queen Boudica?" Ian made the most sincere invitation.
He appeared in front of Boudica at this moment in order to resolve the conflict between Britannia and Rome.
"..."
After a long silence, Boudica finally nodded.
"Okay, let's talk - but you don't have to call me queen anymore, I think that's ironic."
"Seneca, just call me by my name."
"Yes, Boudica."
The atmosphere between the two was more harmonious than before, and Boudica's attitude when speaking was also different.
She looked at the black blood that Ian had just spit out after the kiss, frowned and asked:
"What the hell is going on with you?"
"..."
Ian felt that this was not something that should be brought up at this time, so he quickly responded with an awkward smile.
"Nothing, just an old problem - but it's a little more serious this time, Boudica, thank you for being here."
"..."
Boudica was not happy about this, but instead asked a very serious question.
"Does the tyrant know about this?"
Ian knew that the tyrant Boudica was referring to was Nero, the person he loved most in his life.
That was a code name the queen had chosen in anger, and it was a name that could not be changed in a short time.
"Your Majesty doesn't know." Ian replied, "Besides, how can the emperor worry about the illness of his subjects?"
"But you are obviously her minister—" Boudica sat closer to the man, her emerald green eyes showing a hint of confusion.
"If the emperor doesn't even know about this, isn't that a dereliction of duty?"
"Boudica, you are wrong to say that."
Ian denied the other party's statement without hesitation.
"You have to understand that for His Majesty, the scene she sees is the whole of Rome."
"And in the midst of all this, there are so many things that she needs to make decisions about - that in itself is a huge burden."
"As her subject, how can I cause further trouble at a time like this? That would be an act of treason."
"..."
"..."
Neither Boudica nor Ian continued to talk about this issue - they both knew that if they continued like this, it would definitely turn into an irreparable quarrel.
That doesn't make any sense.
Sensing this, Ian quickly changed the subject and began praising Boudica's virtues.
"Boudica, I didn't expect you to choose to escape or stay, and I didn't expect you to help me."
"This is truly a wonderful quality that a queen should have and I admire it for it."
Hearing this, Boudica's expression became extremely complicated, as if caused by some extremely tangled emotions.
Ian knew that this was not the time for him to speak - that would only make the other party feel that he was being aggressive and would make communication extremely difficult.
After a long silence, Boudica finally said the next sentence.
That was the reason she came up with after she calmed down and thought carefully, and perhaps it could perfectly explain everything that was happening now.
"I want to escape...but where can I escape to?"
"Britannia no longer needs me, and Rome has no room for someone like me."
"Even if we escape from this cell, we will only end up in a bigger cell."
"In comparison——"
Boudica looked at the man in front of her, and there was a hint of forced smile in her emerald green eyes.
"I think it would be better to repay you for taking off the rope for me."
"We Britannia never want to owe anyone anything."
Reasonable.
It can even be said to be a very realistic portrayal of Boudica's psychology.
After five failures, she has now lost all her reputation.
Britannia, who had always been protecting her, also became a sharp blade stabbing her.
Everything was just as Boudica had just said - she had nowhere to go.
"You are such a noble warrior." Ian expressed his thoughts very directly. "Even as an enemy, I admire you from the bottom of my heart."
"But what's the use of this?" Boudica laughed at herself. "Now I actually have no meaning in living anymore, right?"
"Give me a good stab, Seneca."
"..."
"I can't do this, Boudica." Ian shook his head. "Your life belongs to you. I have no right to deprive it."
"only--"
