My XX deal with Sister Nero

If she wants to take the path of external expansion, then the Kingdom of Connaught will most likely choose to invade western Britain next!

"It seems that we have to get rid of the Picts and Welsh first." Tony touched his chin and continued to mutter to himself.

To be honest, Varro is indeed a talent, or... Tony, who is not good at managing internal affairs, can only be a decoration.

Since learning that the city of Sanoni had become the new prince's fiefdom, the chief executive of the city hall first reorganized the original bureaucracy of the city of Sanoni, and then began a new round of internal affairs and military arrangements.

Internal affairs are easy to deal with. After all, the city of Sanoni had its own leadership team before. Although the city has now been separated from the central government's jurisdiction and become a prince's fiefdom, this leadership team has not left. Therefore, in terms of internal affairs, the city can still operate as usual.

The problem lies in the military.

The city of Sanoni is not big, with a population of only a few thousand people, so there are almost no garrisons in the city, only two hundred militiamen responsible for maintaining public order in the city. In the past, because the city was located on the frontier, a Roman legion was stationed not far from the city to serve as the city’s armed force. But now, the city of Sanoni has become Tony’s territory. According to relevant regulations, the Roman legion stationed nearby will be transferred away from the city of Sanoni.

So now, the entire city of Sanoni has only two hundred defenders.

Although there are many Celtic tribes to the north of Sanoni City guarding the border for the empire, if the Picts attack a little more fiercely one day and break through the Iceni Kingdom, then Sanoni City will be in real danger.

So during this period, Varo has been having a headache.

But what was unexpected was that about a week ago, Tony suddenly sent a messenger to convey a message that the Yachis tribe would settle in the city of Sanoni.

As a native Roman, Varro had heard of the name of the Ages tribe. After all, this tribe had invaded the Roman Empire several times and looted many citizens and finances of the empire.

Unexpectedly, the Yachis tribe has reached an agreement with the empire to exchange residence for military service.

To be honest, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Acheis tribe may not be as strong as the Roman Empire in overall combat effectiveness, but compared to the Picts, whose tactics were only to charge forward and disperse in a hurry, they were much stronger.

"Waro, first collect some food from the granary and deliver it to the Yachis tribe, then have someone take out a map with relatively high accuracy and hand it over to the Yachis tribe. Well, don't let them beat up our vassal tribe, that would be embarrassing."

"Your Highness..." Hearing Tony taking such good care of the Aichis tribe, Varro opened his mouth and said tactfully, "After all, the Aichis tribe was one of the tribes that invaded the Roman Empire most frequently. I'm afraid that if Your Highness takes such good care of them... I'm afraid that the citizens of the Empire in the territory will have some... some opinions."

Tony smiled and said, "If you have any opinions, just say so. Don't say that the citizens of the empire have opinions. Currently, most of the people in Sanoni and its subordinate towns are Celts. How many Romans are there? Besides, if you want your horses to run fast, don't skimp on food and fodder. Cavalry was never used for passive defense. After I feed the Achis tribe, I still hope that they will join me in looting the Picts!"

Marauding the Picts?

What is there to rob from these Picts?!

Varro was a little confused. The reason why the Picts went south to rob the Celtic tribes was similar to that of the Sarmatians. They had no food and no money, so they needed to fight against the local tyrants. What was there to rob for these poor people who could only live by robbing their neighbors?

Chapter 185: Rose's Lostbelt Plan

"It took a total of one hour and three minutes." In the living room of a lakeside villa, a young man in a white short-sleeved shirt looked at his watch helplessly and said to the man and woman standing in front of him.

"Ahem, has it been so long?" The handsome guy with dazzling blond hair standing on the left rubbed his hands awkwardly and asked.

"I'm going to remember all this for you! To be honest, Tony, you and your sister got to know each other, no matter whether you wanted to simply comfort your sister or not, but could you two consider that there is a light bulb in the living room! You two ran back to your bedroom like dry wood meeting a raging fire, leaving me here all alone. Hey, hey, hey, I'm the owner of this house! I'm also the king of a country! You can't treat me like this!" The young man looked at Tony and Nero who were standing in front of him somewhat embarrassedly, and the grief and indignation in his words became more and more intense.

"Hehe, this...what you said, what do you mean by not simply comforting my sister, what do you mean by dry wood meeting raging fire, can't you just speak like a sensible person?" Tony looked at his sister guiltily and said angrily.

He just found out that it seems that this elder sister who came from his parallel world... is not with him?

Emmmm…did I spoil the plot?

In short, no matter what, Tony was somewhat annoyed and angry after hearing what the Emperor said.

"Brother, don't say anything." At this moment, Nero, who was standing next to Tony, suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you, my brother, he is dead, right?"

"Yes, that's right. Whether it's your biological brother or this brother from a parallel world, they are both dead." The emperor shrugged and said, "After all, in order to become a heroic spirit, the minimum requirement is that this guy must be dead. Only after death can one become a heroic spirit."

"I know..." Nero lowered his head slightly, his voice trembling: "I just want to know who killed my brother."

His Majesty the Emperor looked at Nero's trembling shoulders. He knew that Nero must be suffering deep in his heart at this moment, right?

After all, she is a sister who is obsessed with her brother, and her brother is dead.

"I don't know. According to Rose, the assassin was an evil god. Rose didn't say who this evil god was. Tony himself doesn't know either. After all... when Tony was assassinated, the other party didn't reveal his identity either."

"The evil god..." Nero muttered to himself with a frown.

"Yes, the evil god." His Majesty the Emperor nodded.

Nero took a deep breath and looked at the emperor in front of him with a serious face. He slowly said: "Let me ask you, you... should have a way to revive your brother? After all, I heard that you have mastered the secret of the soul. I think, if this is true, you should have a way to revive my brother, right?"

Looking at Nero's somewhat stubborn expression, the Emperor suddenly sighed for no reason.

He knew that in Nero's eyes, he should be omnipotent. After all, the technology mastered by this emperor... was two thousand years ahead of the technology in the era when Nero lived.

"No." The emperor smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Although my research institute has analyzed the secrets of the soul, we still cannot bring the dead back to life."

"Even you can't do it..." Hearing the reply from his Majesty, Nero's eyes, which were originally full of expectation, dimmed in an instant.

"But... I think we can prevent your brother's death." Looking at Nero's lonely expression, His Majesty suddenly spoke.

"What to do?" When Nero heard that his brother could still be saved, he opened his eyes wide with excitement.

"Let me explain it briefly to you first. I'm sure you should know about parallel worlds now, right? After all, you have appeared in this world."

Nero nodded.

Just as His Majesty the Emperor said, she now had a general understanding of what a parallel world was.

"Each world has a fixed timeline. The timeline of this world and the timeline of another world are two parallel lines that never intersect. Therefore, in terms of time, it is rare for the two worlds to collide. Based on this, let's assume that these two timelines can be touched and are two parallel lines drawn on paper. Then, can we make a line that is perpendicular and intersects the two parallel lines?"

"Should... be ok?" Although the heroic spirit Nero in front of him could acquire mathematical knowledge in a very short time by relying on his beggar privileges, but... emmm, you have to learn first, right? Nero hasn't learned modern mathematics yet.

"Similarly, if we draw a parallel line on the timeline of the other world, then perpendicular to the timeline of our world, the point where this vertical line intersects the two timelines is called a 'time point'. In other words, even if there is a 'misalignment' in time, we can still find the corresponding time point in our world on the other timeline."

"Really...?" Nero scratched his head. This kind of question...seemed a little confusing.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I can tell you the conclusion directly. Before coming here, I confirmed with Tony. The time point of the world I am in now is 2016, and the time point of the world Tony is in now should be 54 AD. In other words, if I were to travel to the world where Tony is, what I would see is Tony in 54 AD. In addition, the guy in front of you should have died in 70 AD."

"Although I don't fully understand what you mean, maybe...if you go to find Tony now, what you'll see is him before his death?" Nero pondered for a moment and asked uncertainly.

"That's about it." His Majesty nodded and said seriously, "I now roughly understand the plan of that fellow named Qiangwei."

"Huh? What plan?" Tony, who had been standing aside without saying anything, asked subconsciously.

"This guy must be from the future. He is very likely familiar with you and me. When he learned that you were dead, he sent me a text message, asking me not to use the return home plan to find you, so that I could change your future. He hinted that he could use Chaldea or Fuyuki's summoning system to summon you as a Servant. Maybe... he just wanted me to guess his plan from our conversation. Then, he could use certain means or conditions to cut the world you are in into a Lostbelt, and use this method to avoid your death!"

PS1: Thanks to "苦瓜sama" for the tip of one blade ~ Thanks to "夏枫幽" for the tip of two blades ~ Thanks to "女神，乳上" for the tip of two blades, thank you ~

PS2: His Majesty knew the concept of Lostbelts in FGO in 2016. It was not a mistake made by a clumsy hand, but a deliberate foreshadowing... Well, I won't tell you what it was~

PS3: According to the final statistics at 2:28 on February 23th, my total collection is 59, total recommendations are 2420, total monthly tickets are 2710, total rewards are 214, total blades are 27828, and I owe a total of 118 updates in February. Well, because there was a one-day break on March 2st, so as of the release of this chapter, I owe a total of 87 updates.

PS4: New bounties will be issued today and tomorrow.

PS5: I really didn't mean to owe an update yesterday... Today is my college roommate's birthday, and I went to the city where his family lives yesterday. I originally thought that I would stay in a hotel that night and then write and update from the hotel, but... At around pm, a few college classmates went out for a drink, and we drank until am. After I came back, I tried to write a little. Although I had some ideas, I couldn't completely control my hands, and I kept making typos, so I just gave up. I will slowly make up for these two chapters later.

That’s right, I didn’t even have dinner today and took a long-distance bus home directly, just to quickly finish writing today’s two chapters... The next chapter might be late, so let me eat first.

Chapter 186 I have a special relationship with this guy

"Such a scheme and such a roundabout way of doing things are a bit inconsistent with that bastard's style, but... I think I can probably guess who the Rose you are talking about is." Tony looked at the Majesty sitting in front of him with a strange expression and said with some amusement.

"Oh?" His Majesty raised his eyebrows, looked up at Tony, and said with interest: "Tell me, who is it? I want to see if it is the same person as I guessed."

"In other words, you have some guesses in your mind?" Tony smiled, and suddenly put his arm around his sister's shoulders and said, "Except for my sister who uses roses as a representative, the rest is that guy!"

"Brother." Nero was a little panicked when his brother suddenly hugged him. He looked at Tony with a red face, and then... he suddenly laughed.

It seems that I haven't seen my brother smile for several years.

After forcing the Senate to grant Tony the title of "Augustus", Nero completely let himself go. After handing over all the power of the country to his brother in the name of "training", Nero began his own tour plan. He even planned to make Athens the new capital of the Roman Empire because in his opinion, Greece was the birthplace of art and the closest major city to Olympia.

However, after Tony took control of the country, Nero seemed to have never seen his brother smile again.

Every time he returned to Rome and every time he saw his younger brother, he always had a frown on his brow as if he was thinking about something. Perhaps... his younger brother really worked too hard for this empire.

And now, in front of His Majesty the Emperor, Nero seemed to see the smiling brother of the past. Perhaps... he should really thank His Majesty the Emperor.

But why do they seem to be so familiar with each other? And from the tone of my brother, it seems that he knew this emperor when he was alive? Could it be that they...

No! My brother can't bend!

Thinking of this, Nero became a little conflicted again.

Although I am very grateful to the Emperor for making my brother laugh again and happy, but...but I can't turn my brother into a gay!

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Tony asked in confusion as he looked at Nero's face, which was sometimes smiling, sometimes frowning, and sometimes angry.

What? Is this the face-changing in Sichuan opera? And it changes like this?

"Ah? I'm fine! Um, I'm fine!" Nero nodded and said to his younger brother.

Nothing? Tony didn't quite believe that his sister was really okay, but his sister didn't want to say it at the moment... so forget it.

"According to what you said just now, Rose didn't let you contact me too early, which means his plan should be related to my murder and your use of the return home plan to see me. In other words, this assassin, this assassin called the evil god, is related to you." Tony said, looking at the Majesty in front of him.

"? What? Brother, you mean that this bastard sent someone to kill you?" Before the emperor who was sitting had time to speak after hearing Tony's analysis, the emperor standing next to Tony spoke first with a murderous look on his face.

"??? Hey, hey, hey! Um, Tony, what are you trying to do? Are you asking your sister to kill me so you can usurp the throne?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Tony coughed lightly, turned his head to look at his sister who was full of anger, and said softly: "Sister, don't get excited. I'm not saying that he sent someone to kill me. It's like this, ahem, sister, you have been in this world for half a year. You should know that this guy in front of you has some technology that is beyond this era, right? For example, the 'door', I believe you have used it, and you also know that it is the most core prop of the return plan, right?"

"Hmm." Nero nodded to show that he understood.

"The guy sitting in front of us has some special relationship with me, so he will never kill me, but...but if I'm not mistaken, this guy has too many enemies. I think it is very likely that someone knows the relationship between me and him, so they rashly use that 'door' to assassinate me." Tony touched his chin and expressed his guess.

However, what he didn't expect was that Nero didn't listen carefully to Tony's guess. At this moment, there were only four words circling in Nero's mind.

Special relationship?!

Special relationship?!

My brother really... really was turned gay by this bastard?!

Damn it! How can my brother be bent?

Although this Emperor Nero is only the Emperor Nero of a parallel world, and not the Emperor Nero in the Lostbelt, but... but this Emperor Nero also has a certain degree of brother complex, just not as perverted as that one.

But, no matter you are a brother complex or not, as long as you are not a rotten girl, what would you think when you heard that your brother was turned gay by another boy? !

Don’t say things like “Isn’t it beautiful?” If you dare to say that, drag me out and beat me to death. It’s better not to have a sister like that.

So, His Majesty Nero once again performed an authentic Sichuan Opera face-changing for our Prince Tony.

"Sister, what's wrong with you again?" Tony asked curiously, looking at his sister with a frown.

"It's okay!" Nero denied again seriously.

"Okay... Anyway, this bastard in front of me won't kill me." Tony said, patting his chest.

"Oh..." Nero nodded doubtfully.

"That's right. The biggest possibility now is that you were killed by my enemies because of our relationship. Well, that's about it." The emperor nodded, and his tone gradually became serious: "Speaking of which, Tony, do you know what time this time is in your world?"

"Let me think about it." Tony looked up at the ceiling and muttered to himself, "Hmm... It's probably the summer of 54 AD. I should be planning to return to my fiefdom at this time. By the way, the Picts in Britain should be planning to go south at this time, and the cattle raid in Ireland should be almost over."

"The Ox Robbery?" The emperor was stunned. "Wait a minute. I remember that the Ox Robbery happened around 500 BC. How come the Ox Robbery only started happening in the first century AD?"

Tony shrugged, his expectation filled with helplessness: "It's just a myth. Isn't it normal for there to be some discrepancies between what is written and what is actually true? Anyway, the story of the bull is over, and Ireland is now planning to invade Wales!"

Chapter 187 Queen Maeve's Plan

That's right, just as our hero Tony said, at this moment, the Kingdom of Connaught, which defeated the Kingdom of Ulster, is expanding unprecedentedly. In addition, its queen Maeve is the daughter of King Ochur, so at this moment the Kingdom of Connaught has a vague feeling that it is the overlord of Ireland.

Not long after Tony settled the Aches tribe, the Kingdom of Connacht assembled a fleet and launched a tentative attack on the Isle of Man.

As a small island between Ireland and the British Isles, there were no powerful tribes on the Isle of Man, so much so that under the attack of the Kingdom of Connacht, the Celts on the Isle of Man were unable to organize a decent defense.

"According to intelligence, the person in charge of commanding the Battle of the Isle of Man is the young king of the Kingdom of Munster in Ireland." Wan Luo stood aside, bowed quietly and said.

"Munster? Oh, I've heard of this country." Tony nodded. "So, the king of this country is very powerful? But it's just a matter of conquering the Isle of Man, and then we'll be done with it."

"Your Highness, although the Munster King's command ability is far inferior to yours, to be honest, his command and combat ability should not be underestimated. A general once commented that if the combat effectiveness of the Munster Kingdom's army could be equal to that of the Roman Empire, then with the same number of troops, there would probably be only a few famous generals in the empire who could defeat him."

"So powerful?" Tony was stunned for a moment when he saw Varro's serious expression. If this was really the case, then... this guy really should not be underestimated.

Just as Tony was thinking, Varro suddenly spoke up and continued, "But fortunately, the king was injured while hunting when he was young, which made his legs and feet not very flexible, so... so fortunately, he can't fight on the front line himself."

"If he can, he will be both civil and military. So, what is the name of this king?" Tony asked with interest.

"Dungar wa O'Brien." Varo said in a deep voice.

Emmmmm... This name seems...

, sounds familiar?

Tony scratched his head and asked, "Let me ask you something first. If this king is disabled in his legs and feet... did he invent a means of transportation called a wheelchair?"

"Huh? How did Your Highness know?" Varro was stunned. It was understandable that Your Highness knew about the Bull Raid. After all, the central government must have paid attention to such a big war. But Dengar invented the wheelchair as a means of transportation so that he could go out for a walk... The Roman government should not care about this, right?
