My XX deal with Sister Nero

Mary smiled bitterly and lowered her voice, "If this person has never offended Your Highness, then why would Your Highness send him to pass on the message to the Royal Guards? Your Highness should know that going to the Royal Guards to convey the news that Your Highness wants to experiment with new weapons is basically equivalent to slapping the Royal Guards in the face..."

"Ah, that's what you're talking about." Tony smiled and shook his head, saying, "To be honest, this Doryfullus didn't provoke me, or rather, he hasn't provoked me now, but in order to prevent him from provoking me in the future, I can only do something... Actually, at first I wanted to just throw him into the Tiber River to sink, but then I thought about it and decided not to. Let him do this job. If he survives, I'll throw him into the province of Africa, out of sight, out of mind."

Will it provoke His Highness in the future? Although she didn't understand why His Highness would say that, Mary wisely chose to skip this topic.

Since His Highness is unwilling to speak, why should I, as your subordinate, say anything?

At almost the same time, in the far northwest of the Egyptian province, underground in the desert somewhere in the Atlas Mountains, in a huge space as big as a city.

"Dean, I heard something happened outside." In an office, a young man wearing a typical Egyptian robe stood next to an old man with white hair and beard and whispered.

"Something happened? What does it have to do with us?" The man called the dean said without raising his head while sitting at the desk and looking at the books on the table.

"It is rumored that Cleopatra VII, who has been dead for many years, seems to have been resurrected." The young man bowed slightly and said to the dean.

"Eltenam." The dean sighed, looked up at the young man standing next to him, and said, "Although you have created your own unique technology, 'Aether Beam', you must not relax. Things in the outside world will naturally be taken care of by people outside. What does it have to do with us? You have already earned the name of Atlasia. You should cherish yourself even more at this time. Do you plan to be exiled like your roommate?"

"This..." The young man named Eltnam opened his mouth but ultimately did not dare to speak.

He has already earned the name of Atlasia. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the next dean of Atlas Academy. Just as the old dean said, he should be more careful about his reputation at this time. If he is exiled because of something at this time, it will be troublesome.

But... Eltnam, who was born here since childhood, is really curious about the outside world. His roommate, the guy who was exiled from Atlas College, told Eltnam before leaving Atlas College that the outside world is undergoing amazing changes, and he wants to go out and see the outside world. By the way, if possible, he will bring back the "contract" of the first dean.

Then, the roommate took the weapon he created and left Atlas Court.

PS1: Mushroom's geography performance doesn't seem to be that good... The Atlas Mountains are roughly located from Morocco to Tunisia, and don't even reach Egypt. But emmmmm, this book is set in the worldview of Type-Moon, so we can only follow Mushroom's geography. Just assume that this mountain range has become a little longer and extends to Egypt~

PS2: There should be another chapter in the afternoon

Chapter 137: Mage Marshal Zelrich Comes to Visit

"By the way, brother, do you have anything to do today?" Early the next morning, Tony was enjoying his breakfast in the restaurant. Suddenly, he saw Nero walking out of the house, sitting next to Tony and asking.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Tony was stunned for a moment when he saw his sister's serious expression. After swallowing the bread in his mouth, he asked in confusion.

"It's like this. Just now, a soldier reported that a magician appeared at the gate of the palace. The magician said he came to see you and wanted to ask you about Katniss."

Magician? Tony was stunned for a moment. Knowing the history of Type-Moon, he knew that in the Type-Moon world, magic and magic were two different concepts.

Magic, in the Type-Moon world, is defined as the artificial re-creation of miracles, while sorcery is the ability to achieve things that humans cannot.

For example, if a person wants to see hundreds of meters away two thousand years in the future, what should he do?

The easiest way is to go to the store and buy a high-power telescope. Of course, if you have the money to buy a set of high-definition and uncoded surveillance equipment, that's not impossible. But two thousand years ago, if there was no telescope invented by Tony, how could you see things hundreds of meters away?

There is only one answer: magic.

The Eagle Eye Technique is the magic used by Emiya Giant. Two thousand years later, because the telescope can achieve the same effect, the Eagle Eye Technique is called magic. But two thousand years ago today, it is still considered magic. So compared to the future, there are still many magicians in this era, because human civilization is still in its infancy in this era, and most of the magic is magic. So there is nothing wrong with Nero telling Tony that a magician is looking for him.

Tony has only been in this world for half a year and has never come into contact with a magician. If Nero hadn't said today that a magician was looking for Tony, he might have almost forgotten that there is a concept of magic in the world view of Type-Moon where he lives.

"Magician? No, how can a mere magician like me meet anyone?" Tony shook his head and said in a cocky tone.

In fact, the reason why Tony didn't want to see the magicians was simply because it was too troublesome. Who knew what these magicians would ask him? Besides, if a magician came to see him today and he saw him, and another magician came to see him tomorrow, then he wouldn't have to do anything and could just sit there every day waiting for those magicians to come and see him.

"Really? But the magician said that you will see him when you hear his name." Nero said in surprise.

As the emperor of the empire, when she first heard that there was such a magician waiting to see Tony at the gate of the palace, her first reaction was that she didn't want her brother to see him. What a joke, why would her brother meet these weird magicians? Have questions to ask? Oh, why should I answer you?

But not long after, the magician sent a soldier back again to pass on a message, saying that as long as His Royal Highness the Prince heard his name, he would definitely choose to see him.

After hearing the magician's confident words, Nero ran to the restaurant half-believingly and told Tony about it.

"You'll meet him just because you heard his name? You must be kidding." Tony shook his head. In TV shows, people who say this usually have a close relationship with the person they're meeting, but how could Tony know a magician? Could it be that he really met a magician when he was wandering outside half a year ago?

But what does your search for the little homeless ghost Tony have to do with me, His Royal Highness Prince Tony of Oddney?

Nero shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I also think this guy is joking. I'll go find someone to chase him away."

"Wait a minute." Seeing Nero getting ready to get up and chase away the so-called magician, Tony suddenly said, "What's the magician's name? I'm suddenly a little curious about his name."

"Ah..." Nero raised his head and thought for a moment, then frowned and said, "It seems to be called... Um! It's called Kishua Zelrich Shubein Ogu."

Kishua Zelrich Schubain-Ogu?

Jewel Onzelrich?!

WTF! Tony stood up subconsciously, scratched his head, with a hint of shock on his face: "Isn't this the Demon Marshal? Gem Onzelrich, one of the twenty-seven ancestors of the Dead Apostles!"

"Eh? Brother, do you know him?" Seeing Tony standing up in an awkward manner, Nero was stunned. He didn't expect that his brother actually knew the old man at the door?

"Yeah." Tony nodded. How could he not recognize it? ATK increased by 2000, NP self-charged by 80%... Sorry for interrupting, this is a concept costume.

Well, anyway, how could he not have heard of Bao Shi Weng’s name?

At least I have watched so many of Monkey Soju Ilya's movies!

If this magician is here to see me... then I really have to meet him.

"Emmmm, you guy, someone come here." Tony looked at the door and suddenly spoke loudly.

"Your Highness." A guard standing at the door of the restaurant came into the restaurant and looked at Tony kneeling on one knee.

"You, go to the palace gate. There should be an old man named Zelrich standing there. Go meet him and tell him..." Tony paused, glanced at Nero who was sitting next to him, and said, "Tell him to wait in the hall first. Your Majesty and I will be there soon."

"Yes." The guard bowed his head and responded, then stood up and left.

After hurriedly eating two bites of bread, Tony wiped his mouth and pulled Nero to the palace hall.

In the hall, an old man with white hair and beard wearing a black cloak sat quietly on a chair, holding the base of the teacup with his left hand and the cup with his right hand, drinking the milk in the cup in small sips.

"Magic Marshal Zelrich...right?" Pushing open the door, Tony walked forward, carefully looking at the man in front of him who was called the Magic Marshal.

Zelrich is one of the few magicians in the Type-Moon world. He has mastered the second magic and can observe countless parallel worlds. According to the description of the Type-Moon world, this legendary existence, six centuries before Elquet was born in the 0th century AD, which is around AD, Zelrich successfully fought Zhu Yue and destroyed Zhu Yue's body, but he himself became one of the ancestors of the Dead Apostles, ranking fourth.

Speaking of which... According to Type-Moon's time, it seems that the Clock Tower has been created at this point in time? If this is true, then I really need to contact the Magic Association. This group of guys, their research on magic... or magic, should be able to help me explore the root cause and understand what happened in this world that caused these ancients to be resurrected one after another.

There is just one thing that is difficult to be sure of, that is, there are two theories about the founding time of the clock tower, one is 0 AD, and the other is around the 2nd century AD. If it is the former, then it is easy to say, but if it is the latter... it may be a little troublesome.

PS1: According to the original setting, the clock tower was built in the first year of the Christian era, which is what we usually call AD 0. However, this setting was later modified in Mushroom's short story "The Clock Tower in 2015", and the construction time of the clock tower was moved to around the 2nd century AD. Well, it was this novel that released the satellite of FGO, so this book can almost be regarded as a prequel novel to FGO.

Chapter 138 Zelrich's Question

"Kisya Zelrich Shubain Ogu, greetings to His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness Prince Odeni." Seeing Nero and Tony walking out of the gate, the old man in a black cloak quickly put down his teacup, stood up, and said to Nero and Tony with a slight bow.

"Magic Marshal Zelrich...right?" After Nero sat on the throne in the center of the hall, Tony also sat on a chair specially set up for him not far from Nero's left hand. He was silent for two seconds before speaking.

"I really don't deserve the title of Demon Marshal." Zelrich still bowed slightly and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Tony smiled and glanced at his sister who was sitting not far away. According to the discussion between the siblings on the way, since Zelrich came to find Tony, Nero would not say anything unless it was necessary, unless... unless this magic marshal had a brain seizure and wanted to imitate Jing Ke and reveal his true colors.

"You're welcome, Mr. Baoshi." Tony smiled and pointed to the chair next to Zelrich and said, "Please sit down."

Hmm? Hearing the name "Jewel Man", Zelrich raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, this little guy... is really not simple!

Marshal of the Demonic Path, Bao Shi Weng, the little prince in front of him called out his two nicknames with incredible accuracy. His meaning was very clear, I know your nickname, or in other words, I know you very well.

But Zelrich came this time just to learn about the Greek hero who was rumored to have been resurrected, not to confront the Prince head-on, so he just smiled and didn't say much.

"Your Highness, let's skip the formalities and get straight to the point." Zelrich smiled and stared at Tony. "I heard before that a Greek hero named Katniss was resurrected. I want to confirm it first. There should be such a rumor in the empire now, right?"

"Yes, there are rumors in the empire that Katniss has been resurrected." Tony nodded and said.

Kenis massacred many priests of Greek gods on the island of Crete. The truth could not be hidden. When Tony went to Byzantium, the news was brought out by merchants on the island of Crete. Within just one month, almost half of the Roman Empire had heard about the resurrection of an ancient Greek hero named Kenis.

Zelrich nodded and said, "I heard that Your Highness had fought with this Katniss. I would like to ask, does this Katniss... really exist?"

"I've never fought with her. After all, logically speaking, I couldn't beat her. But... one of my subordinates did fight with her. I was just standing by as a spectator. As for whether Katniss exists, from what I have seen, strictly speaking, it should be the 'same' Katniss as the one in myth and legend. She does exist." Tony pondered for two seconds and said cautiously.

Is it the same as in the myths and legends? Zelrich nodded. He understood the meaning behind this sentence. Tony had never seen the Katniss in the myths and legends. He had only heard others describe it. Although the Katniss that appeared in front of him was exactly the same as the one in the myths and legends, this did not mean that the two Katniss were the same person.

Bold, cautious, and calculating, the Prince in front of him is indeed not an ordinary person.

"But I think... this Katniss should be real." Just as Zelrich was looking at the prince in front of him with admiration, Tony suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

"Cannis killed many priests of Greek gods, which angered Mount Olympus, and it sent the demigod Atalanta to hunt her down. As a character in mythology, Atalanta should know Katniss. Since Atalanta has already determined that the spearman in white armor is Katniss, then... I think there is no doubt about it." Tony touched his chin and said with a frown.

"That makes sense." Zelrich nodded.

"Then, Your Highness, can you let me meet this Katniss? I heard that Your Highness defeated Katniss and captured her. I want to ask her a few questions. I wonder if Your Highness... can agree?" After half a minute of silence, Zelrich suddenly spoke.

"I'm afraid... I really can't." Tony shook his head awkwardly and said, "After I brought her to Byzantium, I left her in Byzantium because I was going to Apamea. Considering the chaotic situation there, I wanted to prevent this guy from escaping secretly. Then... I forgot to bring her back when I returned to Rome. Well, Miss Kenis should still be in the prison in Byzantium, right?"

“…” Zelrich opened his mouth, but suddenly didn’t know what to say.

"But!" Feeling the atmosphere was a bit tense, Tony clapped his hands and said, "If Mr. Zelrich wants to find Katniss to understand why the dead can be resurrected, I have other candidates to recommend."

"Oh? Could there be other ancient figures who have come back to life?" Zelrich stroked his beard and frowned.

"It is rumored that Cleopatra VII has been resurrected in Egypt and is planning to launch a rebellion against the Roman Empire. However, the resurrection of this Egyptian queen is still just a legend. At least this king has not personally seen this famous Egyptian queen. However, Queen Bileges of the Kingdom of Sheba, the wife of King Solomon, the third king of the United Kingdom of Israel a thousand years ago, is currently in Rome."

"Cleopatra? Queen of Sheba?" Zelrich stood up subconsciously, looking somewhat surprised and doubtful.

In fact, it’s not Zelrich’s fault that he can’t keep his emotions under control. Suppose one day someone suddenly comes to you and tells you with certainty that he knows Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, and he is going to take you to meet him, do you think you would jump for joy?

"Yes, the government has already sent people to Egypt to investigate. If it is confirmed that Cleopatra has indeed been resurrected, then there will be three confirmed resurrected people."

Bao Shiweng nodded and said, "Well, Your Highness, please introduce me to Her Majesty the Queen."

Tony turned his head and glanced at Nero who had been sitting on the throne as a background, then stepped forward and whispered to Nero: "Sister, should I take Mr. Zelrich to find the Queen of Sheba now?"

"Hmm, brother, is there really nothing wrong with this magician?" Nero put his head close to Tony and said in a low voice.

Problem? What's the problem?

Tony was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Nero wanted to say, so he could only answer vaguely: "He... should be fine."

PS1: Thanks to "Flower Tyrant Youxiang" for the reward ~ Thank you big guy ~

PS2: New Year's Day, the new year, Hokusai, three shots and ten combos plus four summoning talismans, shipwreck.

Goodbye, I'm not suitable for this game.

PS3: Why is the word "Wang Gang" a sensitive character? Damn, the academic bully didn't even let Wang Gang go? ? ?

Chapter 139: This King Has Received Professional Training!

Zelrich left, and following Tony's instructions, he left the palace to look for the Queen of Sheba and find out the process of her resurrection.

"Now, it's almost time to get down to business." After saying goodbye to Nero with a guilty conscience, Tony brought his men to the base of the First Legion of Odney.

"You...did you fall or something?" After having lunch in the military camp, Tony finally saw Dolyflus, whom he had been waiting for all morning.

It’s just that this Doryfullus in front of me…his appearance seems to be quite different from yesterday.

Not only was his face covered in bruises, his eyes also looked swollen as if he had been hit by something, and his two small eyeballs could only look at the outside world with difficulty through a tiny gap. As for his body... well, his body was not in much better condition. His exposed arms were covered with scars from being whipped, which looked very scary.

"Your Highness! Your Highness, you have to make the decision for me!" Looking at Tony sitting on the main seat, Doryfulus burst into tears, kneeled on the ground and rubbed his way to Tony little by little, crying loudly: "Your Highness! Those guards are not human at all!"

Although he had expected this, Tony couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Tell me, what happened?"

Amid Doryflus's sobs, Tony roughly understood what he had experienced that morning.

According to the previous script, Doryphorus needed to inform the Senate and the Guards to tell them that His Highness would be testing new weapons tomorrow. Anyone with a little political sense would know that this young prince's move was obviously a warning to scare those who had rebellious intentions and to maintain the Claudius family's rule over the Roman Empire.

Just as Tony had expected before, the Senate did not have too many thoughts on this. After all, the Senate was now bent on supporting Tony to replace Nero, so that the Senate could take the opportunity to control the government. So they had only one idea, which was that Tony had better be able to protect himself in a short period of time, so as to avoid being crushed by Nero in future political struggles.

However, the Senate had some doubts about Tony's move. After all, this kind of move was obviously not something a child could think of. After some discussion, a senator quickly gave a more reasonable answer.

"I heard that the Royal Guards offended Claudia last time. It seems that this time, our Majesty intends to stand up for her sister." A senator with short black hair said with a smile.

"Hmm? What you are talking about... is it related to His Highness's experiment with new weapons this time?" Elder Windex frowned and asked in confusion.

"Of course." The black-haired elder stood up somewhat conceitedly and said with a smile: "As we all know, your Majesty loves his family very much, otherwise he would not have chosen to exile Agrippina the Younger. I think you will not object to this, right?"

Windex nodded. Indeed, there was no way to refute the fact that Nero loved his family.

"When Your Majesty first ascended the throne, he paid a large bounty to the Royal Guards so that they could protect the emperor. This behavior itself made Your Majesty dissatisfied with the Royal Guards. In addition, the Royal Guards, who are usually very arrogant, have this time offended our little emperor. Windex, do you think Your Majesty will remember this grudge?" The black-haired elder looked conceited, looked at Windex with his nose, and asked with a smile.

"...Yes." After two seconds of silence, Wendex nodded.

"So, His Majesty is now using Your Highness to intimidate the Royal Guards. After all, if His Highness were to do this, the conflict wouldn't be so acute. I think... this plan should have been thought up by that guy Seneca, right?"

The analysis of this black-haired senator was unanimously agreed upon by all the senators. Apart from Nero's teacher Seneca, few people could have come up with such a plan to scare the enemy.

While the Senate was making some random analyses, on the other side, Doryphorus left the Senate Hall and came to the gate of the Praetorian Guard camp.

This kind of crude political tactic can be seen through by anyone who knows a bit, not to mention the senior officers of the Guards who have participated in political struggles for many years. They can see at a glance that this so-called test of new weapons is clearly aimed at them!
