For a moment, suspicion and uneasiness filled the young emperor's eyes.

But the man seemed to have expected this to happen, and quickly continued:

"This is the girl who helped the teacher find you."

"Nero...if you're jealous, it shouldn't be her that you're jealous of."

It has to be said that Ian is the one who understands Nero's thoughts best.

Just a few simple words made the young emperor quickly put aside her doubts.

"So it's someone who helped the teacher find Yu!"

"That's a distinguished guest from Rome!"

"Hmm~ I will come to your rescue immediately!"

Having said that, Ian was actually somewhat curious about what actions Nero would take to get himself and Atalanta on board.

She didn't look like she had any tools that could help.

You don't have to use a treasure, do you?

But the man soon realized that he had underestimated Nero.

Or should I say...

He forgot that she was still an emperor.

Nero turned her head back, not caring at all that she was wearing the white wedding dress she wore when she married Ian.

She yelled towards the deck in a completely different tone from before.

“Mmmmm!”

"You pirates! Come over here and help me!"

"Teacher Yu is going to board this ship now!"

Hearing this, a bad premonition spread in Ian's heart and soon turned into reality.

After Nero finished shouting, noisy footsteps were heard on the warship - that was a situation that could only occur if many people arrived at the same time.

Swipe a few times.

More than a dozen cable ladders used to board the ship were thrown down from above.

And judging from the speed at which it flew out, this was probably a more positive situation than the other. It felt like it was afraid that Nero would find out that it was not helping seriously.

Ian was confused again.

He had never expected that Nero could command these crew members, let alone that they would show such a rush.

but--

Since there is a way to get up, there is no need to worry about anything for the time being.

Ian looked at Atalanta who was looking up beside him and asked gently;

"Atalanta, how about I carry you up there?"

"Can I?" The little cat girl was a little flattered. "Am I... qualified to let the master do this?"

"What a stupid thing to say."

Ian smoothed Atalanta's hair, which had become a little messy due to the cat girl's wholehearted service.

"Of course you are qualified."

"..."

Without saying anything more, Atalanta just nodded happily, then leaned on Ian's back.

"Please, Master."

"it is good."

In this way, Ian carried Atalanta on his back, and then climbed up the rope ladder slowly towards the top of the warship.

This process is not simple - it is much higher than it appears from a distance.

Fortunately, Atalanta was really light, like a little kitten that was being cared for.

Ian finally managed to reach the deck.

only--

As soon as he got on board, Ian saw another unexpected scene.

I saw more than a dozen people... no, it should be said that more than a dozen people dressed as pirates were looking at me with extremely fearful eyes. That look was just like encountering a giant octopus crawling out of the deep sea.

Not only did they not dare to move a step, even blinking became cautious.

This made Ian not know how to comment on this behavior for a moment.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long, because Nero quickly cleared her throat and issued an "order" that belonged to her alone.

"okay!"

"You have done what you should do. Now--"

"Go back over there and stay there obediently!"

"Yes!"

The pirates responded in unison, and then once again rushed back to the other side of the deck. They consciously lined up in a row and squatted there.

That kind of scene looked like collective labor reform.

"Done!" Nero clapped his hands, then turned around, supported his waist with both hands, and looked at teacher Ian.

only--

When the young emperor noticed that her teacher was carrying the little cat girl on his back, Nero's originally lively and cheerful expression suddenly turned into rain, and then quickly turned into a rainy season.

“Hmm—”

"Although you are a distinguished guest of Rome, now that you are on board the ship, isn't it time for you to get off?"

Nero's voice was not loud, but it was serious in stark contrast to her cute appearance.

Hearing this, Atalanta's two cat ears immediately stood up, and then she slid off Ian's back and stood beside him.

"Yes, I understand!"

"This is right!"

Nero's expression suddenly changed from gloomy to bright.

Then, she took Ian's arm and deliberately pushed her chest towards him, deforming it as if to declare sovereignty, and said with a smile:

"Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"There are often those girls who don't know what's good for them and approach the teacher, and then..."

“It never appeared again.”

"Eh——!" Hearing this, Atalanta's face became a little worried.

Ian knocked Nero's head unhappily, and then comforted the little cat girl softly:

"Nero was just scaring you."

"Nothing like that will happen."

"Yeah..." Atalanta nodded, "I know."

“Mmmmm!”

Nero pinched his teacher's arm unconvinced, then puffed his cheeks and said:

"So where did this little wild cat come from?"

"Yu Ke hates this kind of creature that steals food from teachers the most!"

"..."

Realizing that she had just finished sucking Ian's milk, Atalanta turned her face away and didn't dare to answer.

Ian knew this very well, so he quickly explained it for Atalanta.

"This is Atalanta."

"If you insist on asking about her origins... she is probably a Servant summoned to this era by the Holy Grail."

"..."

Ian's simple introduction immediately changed Nero's expression again.

"The Holy Grail..."

Nero was still very grateful for the Holy Grail.

After all, if it weren't for it, he would not have been able to see his teacher again in such a desperate situation, and Hai was saved by him in the burning imperial capital of Rome.

Being a servant is more of a recognition of one's identity.

"So you came here carrying someone's wish."

"sorry--"

The young emperor bowed to Atalanta in apology.

"Eh……"

Although I have no idea why the other party's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees, it is always better to have no conflict than to have one.

Atalanta was not the kind of person who didn't know what was best for her.

She quickly helped Nero up and responded to the apology very politely.

"Please don't do this - I still prefer that normal relationship."

"Hello, my name is Atalanta, nice to meet you."

"..."

Looking at the hand stretched out to her, Nero smiled lovelyly again. She shook it tightly and introduced herself in the same way.

"Hello, my name is Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus."

“What a long name!”

"Then call me Nero."

A conflict between girls was resolved in this way.

Ian breathed a sigh of relief for a moment.

But soon, the looks from the other side of the deck made the man confused again.

"Speaking of which-"

"Nero." Ian looked towards the deck, "Why do these people look so scared of you?"

"what have you done?"

"Hmm, teacher, you ask this."

Nero looked at the pirates squatting in a row and puffed out his chest with pride.

"I just told them that if they didn't obey my orders, I would throw them into the sea."

"You just said this and they are so scared?"

"Of course not."

Nero's pupils shrank slightly, a sign of concentrating his magic power.

A pure white blade appeared in her hand - it was the Primal Fire (Aestus estus).

"I just cut off all their weapons and threw them into the sea."

"Who told them to make so much noise when Yu Gang was teleported here?"

"Speaking of which, the weapons of this era are really not strong. They are completely inferior to those made by the rest of Rome."
