My XX deal with Sister Nero

"You probably have a lot of questions now, such as who is Rosa? What is her relationship with you? Why did Nero treat Rosa completely differently from a stranger after she learned the secret of the Executor Organization? And... why was Rosa so sure that you would choose to join the organization after hearing the biggest secret of the organization?"

"Why?" Tony almost subconsciously followed the middle-aged man's words.

"Let's talk about it one by one." The middle-aged man stood up and said, "The Executor Organization has a broad and narrow meaning. The Executor Organization in a broad sense refers to all executors and the various organizations under their jurisdiction. For example, Rosa's Alpha United Empire, the Third Brother's God Organization, or the Fifteenth Brother's Other Shore Pavilion, in a broad sense, these organizations are all subordinate to the Executor Organization, but the Executor Organization in a narrow sense refers only to the group composed of dozens of executors."

"Yeah." Tony nodded. He had already learned this from Rosa and Alexei.

"The core of the Executor Organization is naturally the Executor, and the Executor was not originally called the Executor, but was called... the Chosen One." The middle-aged man looked at Rosa who was covering his face with interest and said slowly.

"The Chosen One? What the hell? Why is this name so childish?" Tony scratched his head, glanced at Rosa who was covering her face, and complained bluntly.

"The Chosen One, nominally, is the one chosen by God, but in fact, it is the one chosen by Rosa himself. But there is one thing... to some extent, it is true. The executor is the Chosen One. In each world, you, at most, only have one, and this world may be a little special. After all, you became the executor as [Xiao Yun], not the executor of this world." Coming in front of Tony, the middle-aged man looked down at Tony and said slowly.

"Is there any difference?" Tony tilted his head back and frowned.

"Of course it doesn't make any difference to you, but for the organization, it makes a big difference." The middle-aged man shrugged and said, "Of course, these are not the main points. For you, the next thing I'm going to talk about is the main point, which is the selection mechanism for executors."

"You say." Tony looked at the middle-aged man seriously and spoke.

"The selection of executors went through two parts. Now the selection of executors is very simple. We use the method of detecting soul fluctuations to test the executors. If the fluctuation data is consistent, then after a simple review, it is determined that there is no problem, and they can basically be absorbed into the organization. Before we mastered this method, the review of the executor organization was relatively complicated, but... the review standards have never changed."

"You mean... like soul fluctuations?" As if he had guessed something, Tony subconsciously looked at Rosa who was sitting on the sofa. He was shocked at first, then unbelievable, and finally... with an indescribable look of confusion on his face.

"It seems that you have already made some guesses." Looking at the change in Tony's expression, the middle-aged man laughed: "Everyone's soul fluctuations are unique, whether it is the amplitude or the frequency. If they overlap, it can only mean one thing, these are not two different people, but... the same person!"

At this point, the middle-aged man paused before continuing, "It is absolutely impossible to find two people with exactly the same soul fluctuations in the same world at the same time. However, it is very simple to find two people with the same soul fluctuations in two worlds at the same time. This is because the so-called parallel worlds are formed by various different [possibilities]. In other words, all parallel worlds are born from an original [point]. It is for this reason that in the parallel worlds formed by different possibilities, people with the same soul fluctuations can be found. The so-called executor is nothing more than Rosa from another world!"

Really...huh?

If that were the case, then it would all make sense.

Why did Rosa help him? Because he, Tony... no, he, Xiao Yun, was Rosa, the Rosa from the parallel world. Rosa helped him, and in fact, she was also helping herself.

Xiao Yun is a typical self-centered person. Except for those few people he is willing to risk his life to protect, if the world should give him a choice, he would probably choose to protect himself most of the time, because he is just an ordinary person, not a saint who can save the world. What does the life and death of other people in this world have to do with him?

Rosa should also be such a person, and Xiao Yun happens to be Rosa himself.

Similarly, it is for this reason that Rosa said with certainty that all executors of the Executioner Organization would sacrifice themselves for their companions. The reason is simple. In essence, all executors are actually "the same person."

Sacrifice "yourself" to save "yourself". Even now, even if you really decide to sacrifice "yourself", those living "selves" in the parallel world will not stand idly by and let "yourself" die.

Just like Rosa turned this world into a Lostbelt for him.

And it was Rosa who told Nero this secret, which gave Nero a clear concept in his heart that Rosa was his younger brother in the parallel world. It was for this reason that Nero cared about Rosa, because to some extent, Rosa was also his younger brother.

All the executors are the same person!

And this is the biggest secret of the Executioner Organization!

Chapter 726: The wedding...seems to be missing an elder?

"Well now, you already know the biggest secret of the organization, so please tell me, Tony... no, Xiao Yun, are you willing to join the Executioner Organization?" The middle-aged man said, looking at the young man in front of him with a smile.

"Honestly, I really want to answer no." Tony shrugged, glanced at Rosa who looked hopeful, and curled his lips: "Rosa told me at the beginning that after I knew this secret, I would definitely join the organization, and I made up my mind at that time. No matter how exaggerated you talk, I will not join your organization. After all... who knows what your calculations are? And... although it can be explained logically, until now, I still don't quite believe that Rosa is really the me in the parallel world."

"How can we get people to believe it?" Rosa asked with a laugh.

"It's very simple. I have a question here, a question that only I can solve. If you can solve it, it means that you are indeed me." Tony walked around the middle-aged man and sat on the sofa in front of Rosa. He put his hands in the classic sitting posture of Commander Ikari, looked at Rosa, and spoke.

"Oh? A problem that only you can solve? Come on, make your move." Rosa laughed and said nonchalantly.

"Very good." Tony took an A4 paper and a ballpoint pen from the table next to him, moved his wrist slightly, and thought for about two minutes. Finally, he drew a bunch of regular horizontal or vertical lines on the paper.

"Come on, please decrypt it." Tony let out a long sigh, pushed the paper in front of Rosa and said with a smile.

"That's it?" Rosa casually glanced at the pattern and curled his lips and said, "I'm almost sick of this question. Why does I always come up with such a stupid question no matter which parallel world I am in?" Rosa wrote the correct answer on the paper and threw the pen aside. "Here, the answer you asked for is a bonus. Do you want me to repeat the oath you made to you?"

"Fuck, come on, I was wrong bro." Tony waved his hands quickly after taking a look at the answer on the paper.

These patterns seem to follow a certain pattern, but in fact, they are a set of writing systems that he created when he was a child. In order to decode them into corresponding Chinese characters, at least three steps are required to decode this self-created writing system into the Chinese characters that everyone recognizes.

And just after completing this self-created writing system, Tony... or Xiao Yun in his previous life, made a vow when he was a child. This vow, like his writing system, was a product of his middle school years. If Rosa read it out at this time... it would be no less than a public execution.

Now, he can fully believe that Rosa is indeed himself in the parallel world.

After all, Tony has never told anyone about this dark history!

"Okay, now, tell me your answer." Rosa chuckled and looked at Tony and said.

"You are me and I am you. What is my answer? Don't you know?" Tony sneered.

"Of course I know that no matter whether you agree or refuse now, you will eventually join our organization. So... welcome, our ninth executor!"

……

Two days later, Tony learned a relatively important piece of news from Rosa. Under the joint attack of the two electors and the Royal Knights, the strongest knight order in the Alpha United Empire, the heroic spirit Archimedes... disappeared.

Goetia and Archimedes are dead, Tiamat is detained by the research institute, the alien god is blocked outside the loss belt by Rosa, and the giant god Attila cannot leave the stone chamber for the time being. According to Rosa's suggestion, after the wedding, Tony may need to go to the stone chamber on the Tasili Plateau to stabilize the giant god Attila first. This will facilitate Tony's research institute to see if he can find a way to transfer her to where Tiamat is, so that this wandering star pioneer can also be used by the organization.

【}

At this point, all known threats to Tony have come to an end, except for one thing he is still unclear about... a "god" from India who is heading towards Rome.

……

With the help of Rosa fifteen years later, the devastated city of Rome recovered in a very short time. Although the dead could not be resurrected, this... was the limit of what Rosa could do fifteen years later.

The dead cannot be resurrected, but the living have to do something.

Against this backdrop, the citizens of Rome, after a brief moment of grief, continued to prepare for the wedding of His Highness and His Majesty.

"Wedding..." Standing on the balcony of his room, Tony sighed, holding a goblet filled with orange juice.

In his previous life, he had just got a girlfriend and hadn't thought about getting married when he traveled here. In a sense, this was his first time getting married in two lives, so he had no experience.

"Brother." Pushing open the door and coming to Tony's side, Nero leaned on the windowsill and looked at the lights in the distance: "What's wrong? You look thoughtful."

"I was wondering...what it feels like to be married." Tony asked, looking up at his sister.

"This..." Nero looked at his brother awkwardly: "Actually... I don't really know what it feels like to get married..."

Speaking of which, although Nero herself had never been married, she had witnessed weddings of the emperor level. When Agrippina the Younger remarried Claudius, Nero was still young but already sensible. It’s just that because it had been almost ten years, Nero only remembered that Claudius’ wedding was very grand. As for what Claudius and Agrippina the Younger were thinking at the time... I’m afraid only the parties involved know?

"And, sister, what about...what about the elders in our family?" Tony sighed and looked in the direction of the Pantheon and suddenly said.

Goetia was destroyed, and Cefalu turned back into the giant god Attila with a soft personality. It can be said that those who could pose a threat to this world have basically disappeared and no longer exist, and these heroic spirits... have also lost the need to stay in the world.

They...it's time to return to the Throne of Heroes.

Claudius had died long ago, and Agrippina the Younger had also left this world. Caesar, Caligula, and the God-Ancestor, who had previously served as his elders, had now... all returned to the Throne of Heroes.

Whether it is the Claudius family or the Augustus family, there is no one among their immediate relatives who is important enough to serve as the elder of the two.

Nero could still ask his teacher Seneca to replace him, but what about Tony? Who should Tony ask to be the elder?

Chapter 727 The wedding is about to begin!

"What a joke! You want me to be your highness's elder?" In a small house in Rome, the former gladiator Iphosus stood up subconsciously and looked at his wife with a look of shock.

Iphosus, the gladiator rescued by Tita, was rescued by Tita. Due to Tony's intervention, the Guards did not dare to cause trouble to this family. Their daughter, Ulvia, followed Tony and became one of Tony's maids. Iphosus and his wife Claudia were also stripped of their slave status and became free people. They could enjoy certain civilian treatments and were allowed to do some work.

Later, when Tony set up the street office, Iphosos quickly became a lowest-level street sheriff by virtue of his identity as a gladiator, responsible for maintaining the law and order of the street.

In name, Iphosos was Tony's brother-in-law, but Iphosos never dared to announce his identity to the public, because he knew that his wife Claudia, although in name, was the sister of His Royal Highness, but this half-sister was someone he had never met before... What kind of sister was this? It was already a great kindness to help him take in his child. If I used His Royal Highness's name or something... Even if His Royal Highness was not angry, there was no guarantee that the people around him would not be angry.

"Ulvia came to tell me this afternoon. It is said that this is what His Highness meant." Claudia said to Iphosos while cleaning the table.

"What does your highness mean? This... this is impossible?" Iphosos scratched his head, looking unconvinced.

Although he was nominally the brother-in-law of His Highness and His Majesty, in reality, his status was too low. He was just a street sheriff. To put it nicely, this street sheriff was an official, but to put it bluntly, he was nothing.

With my status, let alone being an elder to His Highness, even the fact that I can participate in the wedding is a blessing from God.

"Actually... I can guess the reason a little bit." Claudia looked at her husband tenderly and said, "Father is dead, Agrippina the Younger is dead, and even Caligula is dead. Whether it is the Claudius family or the Augustus family, your Majesty and your Highness do not have any direct elders. Your Majesty is fine, Seneca is your Majesty's teacher and can act as an elder, but your Highness is different. Although your Highness is also taught by Mr. Seneca,... he did not take Mr. Seneca as his teacher after all, and Mr. Seneca cannot act as the elder of two people at the same time, so your Highness can only choose a collateral elder in the family to act as your own elder, or... can only find me, or Octavia."

"That makes sense..." Iphosos nodded. He had to admit that his wife's analysis did make sense, but...but was it appropriate for him to appear in such an occasion and act as the elder of His Highness?

"It's okay, don't worry. Ulvaya said that someone from Her Highness's side will come to teach you about etiquette tomorrow."

……

Claudia is right.

At dawn the next day, a guest arrived at Iphosus's house.

"Mr. Iphosus, right? My name is Vespasianus, you can just call me Vespasian." The middle-aged man in a plain white toga came into the living room, smiled at Iphosus and introduced himself.

"Ah... General Vespasian!" Hearing the name, Iphosus almost jumped up in fright.

Vespasianus was Tony's top general and the former deputy commander of the British Legion. He was one of the few victorious generals in the empire who fought from west to east and from south to north!

He even heard people say that if His Highness was not so outstanding, with Vespasian's military achievements, he would have been more than qualified to be a provincial governor!

He didn't expect that the general was sent by His Highness to discuss matters with him this time!

"Mr. Ifusos, there is no need to be so polite. I'm sure you already know that I came here this time because I hope you can attend His Highness' wedding and temporarily serve as His Highness' elder. This... is also His Highness's intention."

"Your humble servant..." Iphosos opened his mouth in astonishment. This most famous general in the empire actually called himself his humble servant?

Of course, he also knew that the reason why Vespasianus called himself that was because he was the prince's brother-in-law, and the general would respect him a little more for this reason.

"But General, I'm afraid... I'm not up to the task, am I?" Iphosus looked at Vespasianus with some embarrassment and said with a conflicted look on his face.

"That's fine." Vespasianus waved his hand and said, "The wedding of His Highness and His Majesty is more complicated than that of ordinary people, but the overall framework and process of the wedding are similar to those of ordinary weddings. I think you should know this... right?"

"I know that." Iphosos nodded with a somewhat stiff look.

"Now that you know, it will be much easier. I will tell you in detail about the wedding process of His Highness and His Majesty."

……

Because of the war, Tony finally decided to postpone the wedding to June 20th. At the same time, according to Nero's wishes, this day will also become a celebration day for the empire.

The Roman Empire wanted to use the joy of this wedding to dispel the clouds of sorrow that were hanging over the city of Rome.

The governors and deputy governors of each province, the commanders and deputy commanders of each legion, the commanders and deputy commanders of each naval fleet, the monarchs of each vassal state, the envoys of the surrounding tribes, and even the King of Kings of the Parthian Empire, which was in a desperate state, sent a valuable gift. According to Tony's estimation, the gifts Tony received at this wedding were basically equal to the fiscal revenue of the Roman Empire for half a year.

In the Roman Empire, there were two different concepts of weddings, one was marriage with patriarchal power and the other was marriage without patriarchal power. Marriage with patriarchal power meant that after marriage, the wife and daughter would be controlled by the husband and belong to the husband's property, but in marriage without patriarchal power, the wife and husband basically had an equal relationship.

Because Nero was the emperor, Tony and his family naturally chose a marriage without the husband's authority.

"Sister... do you... need to bring so many toys?" Looking at the pile of Nero's childhood toys placed on the carriage behind him, Tony frowned subconsciously.

Considering the wedding ceremony, Nero needs to move out temporarily and move to a villa in the suburbs. However, due to wedding customs, she must take some toys away for sacrifice to the gods.

Although Tony couldn't quite understand why he had to offer the toys he played with as a child as a sacrifice to the gods, it couldn't be that the gods liked playing with toys, right?

"When offering sacrifices to the gods, of course one must be sincere. So be good, little brother. You are alone in the palace and you must listen carefully to Sister Claudia and Sister Octavia, okay?" Nero said slowly, gently touching Tony's head.

"Yes! I will be obedient!"

Chapter 728: Wedding with My Sister (Part 1)

"Then... I'll leave my brother to your care." Nero said to Octavia and Claudia after looking at them.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We will take good care of His Highness." As the eldest sister, Claudia had to stand up without hesitation at this time and promised Nero.

"Then thank you for everything, sister." Nodding to Claudia, Nero left the palace with several carriages.

……

Early morning of June 20th.

Nero got up early at dawn that day. After putting on a stola brought from the palace, Nero brought two maids to the small courtyard in front of the villa.

"Your Majesty." With the help of the surrounding guards, a simple altar for worshipping Mars was quickly built.

In this era, every Roman family would worship a "household god" as the patron saint of their family. Of course, most families would choose to worship Larus, the god of family ancestors, or Vesta, the goddess of hearth. However, the Claudius family was a little different. The household god worshipped by this family was Mars, the father of Romulus, the ancestor of the Claudius family, who was one of the twelve main gods of ancient Rome.

"Your Majesty, please offer a sacrifice!" After a while of chanting, an old priest standing beside the altar lowered his head and said to Nero.

Looking at the statue of Mars on the altar, Nero took his childhood toy from his personal guard with a solemn face and placed it on the altar respectfully.

"Your Majesty, please change your clothes!" The priest still kept his head down, looking at the ground, and spoke slowly to Nero in a hoarse voice.

"Huh~" Nero let out a long breath, reached out to unbuckle his belt, and took off his clothes.

After folding his clothes neatly with his naked body, Nero held the clothes in both hands and placed them respectfully on the altar.

"Then, Your Majesty, please change into your bridal attire." After watching Nero put his clothes on the altar, the priest said respectfully.

Led by two maids, Nero returned to his room and changed his clothes.
