My XX deal with Sister Nero

"So, Sister Mary, what information have you brought back for me?" Tony rested his head on Ola's thigh with a comfortable look on his face, hummed with some comfort, and asked Mary who was standing in front of him in leather armor.

"The first batch of the empire's troops, totaling 50,000 people, have set out for Byzantium." Mary bowed her head slightly and said respectfully.

"Oh?" Although he had never commanded a war in the true sense, Tony could understand that this time the Senate planned to gather an army of 200,000 to fight against the rebellious Pontic and Parthian peoples. They would definitely not concentrate these 200,000 troops in Rome and then take them there together. Instead, they would first gather them in several cities and then set out from these cities to the front-line base camp, which was Byzantium.

"The commander of this 50,000-man army should be Vespasianus, right?" Tony stretched out his finger and picked his nostrils.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Hearing Mary's answer, Tony rubbed his head lightly against Ola's thigh, well, or he nodded.

Vespasianus has already been appointed by the central government, and the Senate will definitely not let him go. Now that he has been found and dragged out, what reason is there not to let him lead his troops to war as soon as possible?

"Besides that? Any other interesting news?"

"There are two pieces of news, but I don't know if they are interesting." Mary frowned, showing an embarrassed expression.

"You say." Tony rubbed his little head gently against Ola's thigh again.

"According to diplomatic news from Rome, a war has broken out on the island of Ireland."

"Ireland?" Tony curled his lips. "What's so strange about war? Isn't the Empire at war with Armenia and Parthia right now?"

“Your Highness.” Mary smiled, took a half step forward, bowed slightly, put her head in front of Tony and whispered, “Although it’s a bit disrespectful, the fundamental purpose of the Thracian rebellion, whether it’s the rebellion of the Pontic people or the Armenian people, is to expand their territory, and the banner they raised can be considered justice. The banner raised by the Pontic people is a resistance to oppression, and the banners of Thrace and Armenia are similar, but…”

"But what?" Tony's interest was obviously piqued when he heard the word "but".

"But the war between these two countries was fought over a cow." Mary smiled. To be honest, she almost laughed out loud when she learned about this excuse for the war. They actually started a war just to grab a cow? Isn't this just teasing us?

"Interesting!" After hearing this reason, Tony sat up subconsciously with an interested expression: "So, which two countries would go to war for such an idiotic reason?"

"The Kingdom of Ulster and the Kingdom of Connaught under the Kingdom of Ireland," Mary replied.

"Are the kings of the Kingdom of Ulster and the Kingdom of Connaught idiots? They actually went to war over a cow. They really are...really..." Tony, who was laughing happily at the two countries after hearing the news, suddenly remembered something. He stood up abruptly and shouted, "Wait a minute, which two countries are at war for what?"

"Your Highness, the Kingdom of Ulster and the Kingdom of Connaught are at war over a cow." Although Mary didn't know why her Highness suddenly had such a big reaction, she still answered his question honestly while worrying about him.

"The Kingdom of Ulster... the Kingdom of Connaught... went to war over a cow. This is the Battle of the Cooley Bull!" At this time Tony finally reacted. Isn't this war the "Battle of the Cooley Bull" in Celtic mythology?

According to mythology, in order to prove that she was richer than her husband, Queen Maeve of Connacht planned to seize the sacred bull Cooley from the neighboring Kingdom of Ulster, and united with two other countries to launch a war against the Kingdom of Ulster. During this war, a legendary hero was born on the Ulster side, the son of the sun god in Celtic mythology, Setendar, or let's call him by another name.

Cu Chulainn!

So, this war that was supposed to exist in myth and legend really happened? And did Connacht really invade Ulster over a cow? So, Gon and the Big Dog... Ugh, Fergus and Cuchulainn were real? Even Maeve should have existed? So... was the legendary Queen of the Shadow Kingdom also real?

"It seems that after the war here is over, I should go back to Britain." Tony muttered to himself as he walked back and forth in front of the hotel entrance.

"What about the other thing? What is the other thing?"

"Your Highness, there is news from the province of Crete that someone found the Governor some time ago and hoped that she could deal with Katniss herself. Oh, yes, Katniss is the guy who attacked the Greek temple."

"Oh? This name is quite masculine. Then, who is this 'she' you are talking about?"

"He" and "she" in Latin have two pronunciations, so Tony was instantly attracted by the feminine "she".

"This... Your Highness, I suspect, no, or rather, the officials of the province of Crete are all suspecting that this person should not have used his real name."

"Huh? Why do you say that?" Tony asked curiously.

"Because this person calls himself Atalanta, but this name... Atalanta is the daughter of Clymene, one of the twelve Titans in Greek mythology, and also the companion of Artemis, the goddess of hunting. How could such a hero from mythology appear here?"

PS1: I was originally planning to say that I was busy and mix the original two updates of words into one update of words. It turned out that although there were words less, it felt more tiring to write than words. God knows why, so starting tomorrow, I will go back to words per chapter.

PS2: I don’t know why I have diarrhea today. I’m afraid I caught a cold. My forehead feels a little hot now…

PS3: Can anyone tell me why the name of Lugur, the sun god in Celtic mythology, is included in the sensitive word library of Shuke? !

Chapter 103: Since ancient times, spearmen have been lucky

Under the guidance of this middle-aged man, Tony and his party soon arrived at the Chief Executive's residence in the center of the city.

After arriving at the governor's residence and sitting down in the lobby on the first floor, Tony took the cup of water handed over by the governor and took a sip. He took a short breath and then put the cup back on the table. He frowned and thought for a while as he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him: "If I remember correctly, your name should be... Adlans, right?"

"Yes, Your Highness, I am Adlans, the governor of Heraklion." The middle-aged man bowed humbly and said to Tony.

Tsk.

Tony, who had recovered, rubbed his chin subconsciously. This guy in front of him... was too humble, wasn't he? If he were in the future, he would probably be a dog-licker!

"Heraklion... I remember there seemed to be a Greek temple in this city, right? How come your Greek priests were also killed by that Kenis?"

"Your Highness, according to statistics, there are three Greek temples in the city, with 21 priests. Currently, 19 of these 21 priests have died, one is seriously injured, and the other is in the governor's residence."

"So, how did you save this living person?" Hearing that there was still a survivor, Tony subconsciously raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The murderer, Katniss, originally intended to kill all the Greek priests, but unexpectedly a girl in a green skirt and holding a hunting bow showed up and forced her back. That's why we were able to save the two priests, but the one who was seriously injured... the doctor said he won't live for a few more days."

"You mean, there was a girl in green with a hunting bow who forced the other party to retreat?" Tony stood up subconsciously, frowning: "Describe in detail what this person looks like."

"Ah?" Adlans raised his head in embarrassment and said, "This... I wasn't there at the time, I just heard from the soldiers below that the girl was wearing a green short skirt, a pair of black boots, a pair of ears of an unknown creature on her head, and there seemed to be a tail on her butt..."

It’s confirmed, it’s Ta Meow!

Tony sat back in his chair, looking a little uneasy.

This description is similar to the appearance of Atalanta in the FGO that I played in my previous life. However, the ears on Atalanta's head and the tail on her butt in the FATE series were not added by the artist because they thought they looked good. It is said that Atalanta was actually cursed, and these ears and tail are symbols of the curse.

If it really is Atalanta... then we're in trouble!

It’s not difficult for Ta Meow itself, after all, Ta Meow likes children, and Tony... happens to be a child, so it’s not Ta Meow itself that is in trouble.

The appearance of Tamiao means that Katniss and Cu Chulainn shown in the previous intelligence should be real. Katniss is fine, but Cu Chulainn, like Tamiao, is a figure in mythology and legend, a demigod. In other words, there should be gods in this world!

So this question can be extended.

God already exists, so does the restraining force also exist? Does the world I live in belong to pan-human history or a certain abnormal zone? Will the reforms I have made attract those cleaners to clean me up?

If it was pan-human history, it would be fine, but if it was a loss belt... forget it, let's not talk about a loss belt.

Looking at His Highness sitting on the chair with a gloomy face, Adlans lowered his head and dared not speak.

After an unknown amount of time, Tony suddenly looked up at Adlanth and asked, "According to the myth, who is more powerful, Katniss or Atalanta?"

"Your Highness, of course Atalanta is powerful. After all, Atalanta is a member of the Argonauts." Hearing Tony's question, Adlans quickly answered.

Argo? Although Tony was not very familiar with Greek mythology, he had heard of the name of the Argo. It was said that this ship carried many heroes from myths and legends, and he did not expect that Atalanta was one of them.

"What about Katniss? I haven't heard much about this man's deeds." Tony touched his chin and asked.

As for Katniss, he only knew roughly that this beautiful girl, who originally looked like Helen, was forced to have sex with her by Poseidon, the god of the sea, on the ashes of eggplant. In order to avoid being fucked again, she wished to become a man. Poseidon probably didn't want this girl, who had been fucked by him, to be fucked by others again, so he fulfilled her wish and gave her an invulnerable BUFF.

Then Katniss was buried alive and suffocated by the centaurs.

But the problem is, if he killed the priests of the Temple of Poseidon, Tony could still understand it. After all, he was forced to have sex with Poseidon, it would be strange if he was not angry and did not want to retaliate. But why did he not let go of the priests of several other temples?

"Ahem, Your Highness, it's like this. This Caenis was forcibly raped by Poseidon in his early years and turned into a man. Later, Bertolius got married and invited Caenis and other heroes and centaurs. However, at the banquet, the centaurs got drunk and forcibly raped Bertolius in front of them, and raped the bride and all the women present. Caenis couldn't stand it, so he teamed up with Bertolius to get rid of this group of centaurs. However, because Caenis was raped by Poseidon before, he was so sad and angry that he asked the people of his country to stop believing in God and instead believe in spears, which made Zeus angry. So in this battle, in order to punish this blasphemous guy, the angry Zeus cast a spell and ordered the centaurs to besiege Caenis, and then... pressed him to the ground and raped him again."

That's right, even after becoming a man, Katniss still couldn't escape the fate of being forced to have sex.

"Emmmm, this Katniss... believes in the spear, so she should be a spearman, right? She might also be a lucky E!" Tony shook his head. Although he could understand Katniss's revenge, but... he couldn't let her continue to retaliate like this.

"So now, where are Atalanta and Katniss?" Tony shook his head. Now was not the time to think about these things. The top priority now should be to resolve the issue with Katniss.

"Well... after the battle some time ago, Caenis and Atalanta are missing. I have sent out troops to search, but they have not been found yet." Adlans said with his head down.

"Don't you know where it is..." Tony frowned and said to Mary who was standing not far from him, "Sister Mary, pass the order and make a golden apple. Pay attention, it must be made lifelike. I need it."

The update is complete. I'm going to bed now. It's almost four o'clock.

Chapter 105: Katniss is Here

"Hmm? Go ahead." Seeing that the little boy had calmed down a little, Atalanta leaned her head forward a little, tried to put on a gentle expression and asked.

"Ahem, it's like this, Sister Ata, emmmm, my name is Tony, Tony Claudius Germanicus, and I'm the Prince of Odenis of the Roman Empire." Tony coughed lightly and scratched his head pretending to be embarrassed.

"Ah... I can guess it." When Atalanta appeared in this world, she already knew some general information about this world, such as that Arcadia had been destroyed, and that the land was now ruled by the once pitifully weak Roman city-state.

Tony, as a prince who is second only to the emperor in this empire, how could Atalanta not have heard of his name.

"Sister Ata should know, right? This is the place, on the island of Crete. There is a guy named Kenis who killed many Greek temple priests. My sister, now the Emperor of the Roman Empire, was very angry when she heard about it. She asked me to come here to integrate the army on the island of Crete to eliminate Kenis, but... but I'm a little scared..." Tony said while pouting his lips, looking like he was about to cry at any time.

"Be good, don't be afraid~" Seeing Tony's expression that was about to cry, Atalanta, who loved children, was already overflowing with maternal love: "Well, Atalanta's goal happens to be the same as yours, and we also want to catch this guy named Katniss. How about I protect you when the time comes?"

Finally took the bait!

Tony breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He could have caught the big fish, Atalanta, a long time ago, but somehow the script went off track halfway through and he had to waste a lot of time talking. Now he finally brought the topic back!

"Really?" Although he was relieved in his heart, Tony still put on a surprised expression on the surface. He moved forward cautiously and asked in a cute tone, "Sister Ata, you won't lie to me, right?"

"Of course I won't lie to you." Atalanta smiled and glanced at the sky outside the door, then turned back and said to Tony: "Be obedient and go to bed. It's very late now."

"Yeah, Sister Ata is the best~ I like Sister Ata the most~" As he said that, Tony hugged Atalanta and gave her a kiss on the face.

Ah! This childish behavior...even the author is envious!

After lying back on the bed contentedly, Tony said somewhat worriedly: "Now, where can I find Sister Ata tomorrow?"

Atalanta shook her ears, tilted her head and thought for two seconds before saying, "Come to the temple of the god of hunting in the east of the city tomorrow to find me. I will live there."

"Okay~" Tony responded sweetly and closed his eyes happily.

After covering Tony with the quilt, Atalanta did not stay here for long. She closed the door and quickly ran towards the temple of the god of hunting.

I don’t know why, but our classmate Ta Miao always feels that something is wrong tonight.

The next morning, after breakfast, Tony hurriedly came to the gate of the Temple of the God of Hunting with a group of guards.

The goddess of hunting, that is, Artemis, is the goddess of hunting, nature and the moon in ancient Greek mythology. Because her areas of responsibility include hunting, war, bows and arrows, and archery, most of the priests in this temple are male.

Of course, no matter whether they are male priests or female priests, these priests have now been killed by Katniss.

When I was still a girl, I was dragged to the ashes of a strawberry by the gods because I was cute, but now that I am a grown man, why don't these Greek gods let me go? Not only do they command their men to fuck me, but they also suffocate me to death!

Anyway, if this happened to Tony, he would probably have to blow up Mount Olympus first.

After pushing open the door of the temple and searching the inside carefully, Tony finally found Atalanta sleeping soundly with her longbow in a corner of the temple.

Hearing the footsteps, Atalanta's ears on the top of her head twitched twice, then she stood up alertly and looked at the group of people who broke into the temple.

"Good morning, Sister Atalanta." Tony came to Atalanta with a smile and sat cross-legged on the ground. He held his chin with both hands and looked at Atalanta and said, "Sister Atalanta, aren't you cold sleeping here?"

"Ah...it's Tony..." Atalanta yawned, stretched, rubbed her eyes, waved at Tony and said, "Morning, little Tony."

"It's getting late~" Tony stood up and grabbed Atalanta's hand to pull her up from the ground, smiling and saying, "Sister Atalanta, do you want to go to the mansion to have breakfast first?"

"Breakfast?" Ata pricked up her ears subconsciously. As a legendary hunter, Atalanta had wilderness survival skills far superior to Bear Grylls, so she would not go hungry.

But not being hungry doesn’t mean Atalanta wants to eat something more delicious!

Plus... yes! Plus, the living priest is now in the governor's residence, and he has to wait there for Katniss to take the bait!

"Well...thank you, little Tony~" Swallowing secretly, Atalanta took her Sky Bow and prepared to follow Tony to the Governor's residence.

However, just as Tony and his party walked out of the temple gate, a soldier wearing Roman standard armor suddenly came to Tony, knelt on one knee and said, "Your Highness, that Caenis attacked the governor's residence and is now fighting with the guard named Jie Luo beside your Highness!"

"What?!" Tony's face changed suddenly when he heard the news!

Although we know that Zero is very strong and should be able to fight Katniss on equal terms, the mythical Katniss has an invulnerable body, which is even tougher than drinking the water of death. What if he manages to defeat Zero with this invulnerable body?

"Let's go, go back quickly." Just as Tony finished his words, Atalanta jumped up and ran towards the governor's residence.

"Catch up."

Soon, Tony and his group arrived at the Chief Executive's residence.

"Your Highness." Just after he stepped through the gate, before he had time to figure out what was going on inside, he saw a junior officer standing in the courtyard who quickly stepped forward to stop Tony and whispered, "Your Highness, be careful. That Katniss is very powerful. If it weren't for Lord Zero, we would all be dead here."

PS: I forgot what I was going to say, I’ll say it when I remember it

Chapter 106: Capture the King First

Kenis is one of the heroes in Greek mythology. Although he is weak compared to demigod-level heroes like Atalanta and Hercules, compared to ordinary soldiers, Kenis is extremely strong.

So when she made up her mind to break into the governor's residence and kill the living priest, none of the hundreds of soldiers around the governor's residence could block her casual attack.

Katniss, who was almost like a fish in water, had a cruel smile on her face as she rushed to the main hall of the governor's residence. Just when she was about to rush in and kill the priest hiding inside, she saw a girl with a cold face and a strange-shaped sword in her hand slowly walking out of the main hall. Then she stood at the door of the main hall, and her cold eyes stared quietly at Katniss in front of her who was wearing silver armor.

"Interesting." Feeling the pressure coming from the girl in front of him, Katniss grinned and said cruelly: "Tell me your name, woman!"

Zero didn't say anything, but just stood there quietly, looking at Katniss.

"You guy..." Kennis felt uncomfortable being stared at by Zero. Seeing that his opponent had no intention of signing up, Kennis rushed towards Zero with the gun in both hands, followed by a very standard thrust!
