My XX deal with Sister Nero

After all, lilies are infinitely beautiful, but it’s a pity that they can’t reproduce.

So for Tony, his biggest enemies are of course the two men who married Nero and the two men who were married by Nero!

Those two are most likely to become my brother-in-law!

Yes, these two people are Doryphorus and Sporus.

At the end of last year, Tony secretly sent people to find out the whereabouts of these two people. Doryphorus was found very quickly. At first, Tony had been thinking of sinking the two directly into the Tiber River, but then he thought that God is merciful... Well, actually he just didn't want to kill anyone, so he simply threw this person into Africa, out of sight, out of mind, but the remaining Sporus... has never been found.

No wonder, no wonder I couldn’t find Sporus. After all this time, it turns out that the male Sporus does not exist. What exists in this world is the female Sporuya!

How the hell do you think you could find this?

Kind of embarrassing.

Taking a deep breath and forcibly suppressing his turbulent inner thoughts, Tony carefully looked at the little girl in front of him and began to think.

If Spoluya is Sporus, then according to the course of history, Nero would most likely fall in love with this little girl. Lily is infinitely good but it's a pity that she can't give birth. Although Tony has extraordinary strengths compared to Spoluya, and Spoluya cannot pose a threat to him in some aspects, but... Spoluya is one of Nero's favorite people in history after all. What would happen if they met?

And the most crucial point is, Spoluya is now in the palace, has Nero really met her? If he has met her, will this Spoluya pose a threat to his position?

This little Loli who is most likely to become her brother-in-law is now by her side... So who the hell put her into the palace? !

Chapter 176: My sister is also a lolita complex?

Taking a deep breath, Tony felt that he needed to smoke a cigarette to calm down.

Let's sort things out first.

First of all, Tony is now in the Type-Moon world. Although this is not the world he lived in in his previous life, in terms of historical progress alone, it is not much different. Yes, this is the so-called "pan-human history."

In other words, if those minor details are excluded, the history of the world in which Tony lived in his previous life can serve as a reference to a certain extent in this world, such as Nero's marital status, the war with Parthia, and... the rebellion in 68 AD.

It was precisely because of his understanding of pan-human history that Tony planned to take action in advance to find Doryphorus and Sporus.

And now, Doryphorus has been thrown into Africa to fight elephants. The remaining Sporus... or this girl named Sporuya, was brought into the palace by some bastard. Now she is just serving me. That's still okay, but what if one day Nero comes and sees this little loli and falls in love with her at first sight and shouts that he will turn his brother-con into a lolita complex and forcefully marry her? Where the hell can I go to cry?

So, now Tony has to do two things.

The first thing is to find a way to quickly get this little Loli away from Rome and not let Nero see her. The second thing is... I must find the bastard who brought Sporluya into the palace. Isn't he deliberately looking for trouble for me?

"Um, um, Spoluya, I have something to ask you." After a light cough, Tony looked at Spoluya with a kind smile and asked.

"Your Highness, please speak." Spoluya stood up like a frightened little rabbit, looked at Tony in panic, and said.

"Um...can you tell me who brought you into the palace? I think...it wasn't you who took the initiative to enter the palace, right?" Tony asked with a smile.

It is very troublesome and difficult for a foreign slave to enter the palace. You really cannot enter the palace without some connections, so... someone must have brought Spoluya into the palace and arranged her to stay here!

"Your Highness...it was...His Majesty who brought me into the palace..." Spolua lowered her head, looked at Tony cautiously, and said.

"Oh... it's His Majesty, that son of a bitch...??? His Majesty???!" Tony finally reacted after saying this, wait, who are you talking about? !

Tony felt like he really needed to smoke a cigarette and calm down today.

Come on, let's take a deep breath and think this through.

Spoluya, the gender-transformed version of Sporus, is now in the palace, in front of him.

Well, then, who the hell brought this little Loli who is most likely to become his brother-in-law into the palace?

That’s right, it’s His Majesty, the elder sister of our Prince Oddney.

Oh yes, since it was brought in by His Majesty, we can’t call him a dog anymore. After all... isn’t this calling our future selves dogs?

Ahem, it seems like I have inadvertently exposed my ambition.

So, here comes the problem.

Although I don't know what the historical Sporus looked like, but this little Lolita named Sporuya in front of me, well, how should I put it, Tony has never seen such a beautiful and cute little Lolita in his previous life. If he had such a cute and soft little Lolita following him in his previous life... Forget it, I won't steal batteries anymore, even if I steal bicycles, I have to find a way to raise this little Lolita!

So, why did the current emperor, who theoretically couldn't move his legs and phantom limbs just because of the cute creatures... send this little loli to him?

Damn, could it be that... this sister actually likes some weird rice bowl? And... and she is the one who eats the rice bowl?!

Well, according to the history I lived in in my previous life, it is possible that Nero in this world really has this strange hobby, but the problem is, even if Nero has such a hobby, I don’t!

What is this? Shared loli?

Don't do it anyway.

Wait, maybe... there are other possibilities?

Tony continued to ponder as he looked at Spoluya.

According to the history of another world, Nero fell in love with Sporus and married him. Now, although Sporus has changed his gender to Sporua, but... isn't that better?

Ahem, Tony means, will this situation happen?

According to Spoluya, Nero saw her on the street and brought her back to the palace. The reason why Nero brought Spoluya back to the palace was simply because Spoluya was so damn cute, with a soft and cute personality and a lovely appearance. It was almost as if the words "Come and knock me down" were written directly on her face. Therefore, it is very likely that Nero was attracted by Spoluya's softness and cuteness and brought her back to the palace.

However, there was Seneca in the palace who could nag Nero. In order to prevent himself from being nagged by his teacher, Nero stuffed Sporla into his house, under the pretext of finding a playmate for his younger brother, and asked his younger brother to help him raise this little loli.

And think about it, if Nero, as the emperor, went to see a little maid whenever he had something to do, it would be suspicious no matter how you look at it, right? But what if the emperor, as the sister, went to see her brother whenever she had something to do?

Oh, everyone must be thinking, wow, this sister and brother have such a good relationship.

You see, this won't get noticed, right?

This operation, tsk, how can I describe it? He is worthy of being the Emperor?

"Your Highness..." Feeling a little creepy by Tony's direct gaze, Spoluya subconsciously took a half step back and stared at Tony with some fear.

This look... really looks like that of a friend of his previous master.

"Ah..." Seeing Spoluya's fearful look, Tony came back to his senses. He coughed and said, "Um, it's okay, it's okay. So, it was His Majesty Ted who arranged for you to come to me? Then...did His Majesty tell you anything in particular?"

Spoluya tilted her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "His Majesty didn't say anything in particular, but... well, he just wanted me to take good care of His Highness."

Take good care of me?

It seems... it seems that my elder sister must also think that Spoluya is too young, so she didn’t say much to her. Tsk, quite interesting.

Tony snorted and laughed. Should he confront his sister?

Ahaha! I didn't expect you were also a lolita complex!

Um... no, no.

Tony shook his head. If he said that, his sister would probably think he was a pervert!

Wow QAQ sister, you actually... you actually like the cute and soft little Loli and don’t like me, your brother~嘤嘤嘤, I’m so sad~

Mouth area... forget it, don't try to be cute. It's scary for a grown man in his twenties.

So... should we come clean?

PS: To put it simply, there will be no additional updates from today until the 3rd, and we will try to ensure two updates a day.

Here's the thing. My new house is going to be renovated on the 26th. I'm going to go take a look at the details and determine what furniture I need for my room. After all... I may need a model cabinet and a computer desk.

Then my college roommate is getting married on the 2nd, so he probably won't have time to write on the 2nd. Also, since the journey is far, I might go there early on the 1st. And if he drinks on the 2nd, he might have to stay for half a day or a whole day on the 3rd.

So I will try my best to save up manuscripts in the next few days to ensure that I have two updates on the 2nd day. Well, I will not add any updates during this period of time.

Chapter 177 The Sarmatians

After scratching his head and letting Spoluya go down to rest, Tony walked back and forth in the room and finally decided to go to Nero to ask him indirectly.

"It's been several months, those guys haven't left yet?" Tony just arrived at the door of the hall and hadn't even entered yet when he heard Nero's somewhat angry voice coming from inside the hall.

Hmm? What happened?

Tony raised his eyebrows and quietly came to the door. He put his hands on the door frame, carefully stretched out half of his head, and looked inside the hall.

"Your Majesty... these guys seem to be very determined..." An old man in a white tunic looked at Nero helplessly and sighed.

This old man... After taking a glance at the purple stripe on the old man's right shoulder and the iron ring on his right index finger, Tony could roughly judge that this old man should be a senator in the Senate, and a senator who holds real power!

"Do you have the willpower?" Nero raised his eyebrows and subconsciously raised his voice: "Right now the Empire is busy dealing with Parthia, and because the troops near the Danube River have been withdrawn, the surrounding Scythian tribes are beginning to stir again. I have a lot of things to deal with, so why would I bother to talk nonsense with them?!"

Are the Scythians making any move?

Tony shrank his neck in embarrassment, as if... was this something he did?

In his previous life, he had played Rome Total War, so he had a general idea about Scythia. This nomadic country was located probably to the north of the Kingdom of Thracian, but... Tony vaguely remembered that Scythia didn't seem to be very strong according to the introduction. Anyway, he felt that this country was not as strong as Armenia.

It was for this reason that Tony boldly mobilized two legions near the Danube River to move south to the Sinai Peninsula, preparing to attack Babylonia.

But in fact, what Tony didn't know was that the historical Scythia was not as terrible as described in Total War!

The Scythians in history were a very famous and powerful nomadic people. Their range of activities was very wide, from the Danube River basin to the Kubuqi Desert in Inner Mongolia. Their range of activities and migration almost ran through the entire North Asia. In the seventh century BC, this powerful nomadic people even invaded the Assyrian Empire for a time, which shows their military strength.

"Your Majesty, I have also told them these words..." The elder smiled bitterly and shook his head, "But they have also made it clear that they are willing to attack Scythia for us as long as their wishes are met."

"Impossible." Nero waved his hand. "We can't possibly agree to their terms. Not to mention that they are descendants of the Amazons, even if they resurrected the previous Amazon queen, I can't possibly agree to their request."

???

Descendants of the Amazons?!

Tony was stunned when he heard this.

When talking about the Amazon, what people usually think of immediately is the Amazon rainforest in South America, but in fact, in European mythology, there is a so-called Amazon tribe.

According to Greek mythology, there was an ancient nomadic people in what is now northern Turkey. This people only had women but no men. They would regularly buy men from outside to mate with them. After the children were born, if it was a boy, they would throw him away. If it was a girl, they would keep her and train her to be a capable warrior. These were the so-called Amazon warriors.

Yes, that's right, the famous heel Achilles in the legend once had a story with the Amazon warrior.

But...isn't the Amazon tribe a myth? How come it really exists in this world? And from what Your Majesty said, this tribe still has descendants?

"Huh? Brother, why are you here?" Just when Tony had a confused look on his face and his mind was full of thoughts about the Amazons, the half of his head sticking out was accidentally seen by Nero.

"Ah... I was planning to ask my sister something, but I saw that my sister was discussing national affairs with this elder, so I stood at the door and did not disturb her."

At this point, Tony paused, looked at Nero with some curiosity and said, "But just now I heard my sister talking about the Amazon tribe, what's going on?"

"It's okay." Nero rubbed his forehead tiredly, sighed, sat on the throne, looked at Tony and said, "German...brother should know, right?"

Tony nodded. How could he not know about the Germanic region? It was very likely that he would be his future home. Tony had made a wish at the New Year, which was to conquer the Germanic region and build countless orthopedic hospitals in that vast land.

"Perhaps you have always thought that there are only Germanic people in the Germanic region? But that is not the case. There are many ethnic groups living in the Germanic region, including Saxons, Vandals, Marcomanni and Sarmatians. They have established their own tribes in the Germanic region, and most of these tribes are enemies of the Roman Empire."

Tony nodded.

Although he was not very clear about the fact that there were so many ethnic groups in the Germanic region, he roughly understood that these guys were enemies of the Roman Empire, so, what did this have to do with the Amazons?

Seeing Tony's bewildered expression, Nero continued to explain, "Next to Scythia, in the Dacia region, there lived a people called the Sarmatians. These guys had been fighting the Roman Empire for many years, but some time ago, several Sarmatian tribes living in the Germanic region sent representatives to Rome, hoping to stop the war with us and allow them to enter Rome to reproduce."

Sarmat?

Sarmatia?!

When Tony heard the name at first, he didn't react, but soon he remembered where he had heard the name before.

In Rome Total War, there is a mercenary army called the Sarmatian Cavalry!

According to the description in Rome Total War, the Sarmatian cavalry is a heavy cavalry. Although not as luxurious as the Parthian heavy cavalry, according to the description in the game, the combat capability of this heavy cavalry is still good, at least... can it be used?

"So, according to what my sister said, if these guys want to enter the Roman Empire and reproduce, they should be offered corresponding benefits, right? In addition to helping the Roman Empire suppress Scythia, are there any other conditions?" Tony asked with a frown.

"In fact, the conditions they offered were not to help us suppress Scythia, but to allow us to enter the Roman Empire and reproduce by offering military service in exchange for residency."

PS: Since the Sarmatians have the habit of making women serve in the army, historically this nation should be the prototype of the Amazons in mythology and legends, rather than the descendants of the Amazons. However, considering that the Amazons really exist in the Type-Moon world, I will set the Sarmatians as the descendants of the Amazons here.

Chapter 178 This King has a bold idea...

In exchange for residency rights through military service?

Tony was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something he accidentally saw on the Internet in his previous life.

At the end of the Roman Empire, there was a situation where dragons and eagles coexisted.

The so-called dragon and eagle refer to the eagle flag symbolizing the elite Roman heavy infantry corps and the dragon flag symbolizing the Roman cavalry.

In fact, this dragon flag was originally the flag of nomadic peoples such as Parthia or Sarmat.

Around the third century, the Sarmatians gradually integrated into the Roman Empire, and their dragon flag eventually became the symbol of the empire's elite cavalry.

It is worth mentioning that about two centuries later, in order to deal with the Picts in Scotland, the Romans sent a Sarmatian cavalry to garrison in the British province. However, not long after, the Western Roman Empire was destroyed. Since the Sarmatian cavalry was a mercenary force, after all the Romans stationed in Britain evacuated, this group of Sarmatian cavalry chose to stay here and establish an independent country.
