My XX deal with Sister Nero

"Be good, brother. Days like this will soon pass." Looking at Tony who was almost choking on his dry food, Tita quickly handed Tony a pot of cold water, then patted him on the back gently and whispered.

Tony leaned against a big tree, glanced at the small flame in front of him, drank some cold water, and said, "To be honest, this is my first time camping in the wilderness."

In fact, Tony's original intention was to say that before he traveled through time, he had never suffered such hardship in his previous life. After all, in modern China... no, in most modern countries, most people rarely sleep in the wilderness.

But Tita misunderstood. She thought Tony meant that when he was wandering in the past, he lived on the streets of a small town or in the city.

"It's okay, brother. If you're afraid of the cold, you can hold on to your sister." Tita reached out and hugged Tony.

"Ahem." Although Tita hadn't fully developed yet and it might be a bit uncomfortable to hug her, there were differences between men and women after all. Tony's thinking was relatively conservative in this era, or he was thin-skinned. After being hugged like this, he always felt that his face was a little hot.

Just when Tony was thinking about how to act innocent and unpretentious in breaking free from Tita's embrace, Martha's voice suddenly rang out beside him.

"Oh, it seems that you siblings have a pretty good relationship." Martha said as she leaned her walking stick against a big tree and then sat on the ground.

"Ah... then what?" Tony asked subconsciously.

Martha looked up at the sky and was silent for a long time before she answered, "Come to think of it, I once had a brother and a sister, but they are in Jerusalem and I don't know how they are doing now. Perhaps the Roman governor there has taken them away... After all, I am a heretic."

Hearing the deep sadness in Martha's voice, Tita asked tentatively: "How about... you treat me and Tony as your brothers and sisters?"

ha? What the hell?

Although Tony has no objection to having a beautiful older sister, especially since Martha's fighting ability is so strong, you still have to at least discuss such a big thing with me!

"This, this, this...is this really possible?" When Martha heard Tita say that she was willing to be her sister, she felt that her happiness was about to explode.

Hey, hey, hey! I haven't spoken yet! The other party hasn't spoken yet. Can you please stop ignoring me?

Tony complained madly in his heart.

"It's really possible, right, Tony?" Tita rubbed Tony's head and asked.

"Ah...oh...of course," Tony nodded seriously.

"That's great!" Martha shouted happily and hugged her new brother and sister tightly.

Oh...I just feel like I can't breathe!

Tony felt like he was about to suffocate as he was buried in his chest.

Yeah, but facial cleansers are really cool!

"Okay, okay, you guys should get some rest quickly. We have to continue our journey early tomorrow morning." At this time, Sevilla, who had been silent all the time, spoke.

Children are innocent, but adults are different.

Although Martha did a lot of good things for the town, in this era, her belief in Christianity, a religion that denied the existence of Roman gods, was considered heresy. How to deal with the relationship with a heretic who had saved her was indeed a headache.

Especially now, his daughter and half son have already recognized Martha as their sister. Even if the children were just joking, this recognition undoubtedly deepened the relationship between his family and the heretics.

Since the head of the family is not around, Sevilla is troubled about how to handle this relationship.

"Yeah, I understand, Auntie." Martha responded and said to Tita and Tony, "Be good, have a good rest. Yeah, that's right! Your brother is only twelve years old and is still growing. Wait a minute, I'll find you something delicious. How can you eat dry food every day?"

Now my total collection is 95, total recommendation is 50, total monthly ticket is 5, reward is 0, and I owe 16 chapters in total

The next update requires a total of 104 collections, 51 recommendations, 6 monthly tickets, and 500 rewards.

Come on, let's work hard today. Anyway, today is a day off from work, and tomorrow and the day after are weekends, so we have three days in total, so why not eat some starfish?

Chapter 17 Huh? Going to the bathhouse for a bath? (Additional update 6)

Next, Tony understood what it meant to give special treatment.

After saying this, Martha left the small camp quickly. Not long after, Martha came back again, but this time she had a lively rabbit in her hand.

"Children need to grow, so they must not be left hungry. I know that." Martha muttered as she skillfully took out a knife and peeled off the rabbit's fur.

For some reason, the five words "torture and kill little rabbits" suddenly appeared in Tony's mind.

Oh, maybe it’s because I played Skyrim 5 too much before traveling through time... Or maybe it’s because the author recently downloaded some MODs from the famous XX Laboratory and started playing Skyrim 5 again?

After finding a pot of clean water to wash it, Martha started a fire, skewered the rabbit, put it on the fire and started roasting it.

"Be good, wait a moment. You can eat it after your sister has baked it for you. Be careful of the heat." Martha tilted her head and looked at Tony, saying with a smile.

What the hell!

At this moment, Tony felt completely flattered!

To be honest, Tony's relationship with his parents was not very good in his previous life. Although his father liked him very much, he didn't know how to express his love, so the father and son often had conflicts. Although his relationship with his mother was better, Tony studied in another place when he was very young, so they could only see each other during summer and winter vacations.

In short, due to various reasons, he has a bad relationship with his parents, and he is also quite far away from his peers and his older brothers and sisters. They seldom interact with each other, and it is already very good if he can see them once a year.

After crossing over, Tony did feel the long-lost love, but after all, Antonio's family was not short of family, so he didn't act so abruptly. But Marda was different. Her own brothers and sisters were likely dead, and she was probably alone now. Now she had brothers and sisters again, how could she not be happy and excited? It was understandable that she was a little excited.

"It's great to have a sister who cares about you..." Tony sighed softly as he watched Martha busying around.

After a while, Martha handed the roasted rabbit to Tony and said, "Be good, be careful of the heat."

Tony thanked him, took the rabbit and blew on it twice.

Tony thought about it and finally gritted his teeth as he looked at the steaming rabbit. He stretched out his hand and twisted off a rabbit leg and handed it to Tita, saying, "Sister Tita, eat it while it's hot."

"I say, you'd better be careful and don't make a fire at night. It's easy to be discovered by the enemy." At this moment, a mercenary came over quietly, picked up a handful of soil from the ground and sprinkled it on the fire.

"I understand." Martha stuck out her tongue to show that she understood.

Although Martha's fighting ability is amazing, she doesn't have much experience fighting enemies, so she doesn't know much about these things.

"Sister, you can eat too." Tony twisted off another rabbit leg and handed it to Martha. After all, Martha had just been busy roasting the rabbit for him. If he didn't give her anything, wouldn't that be a bit too much?

"Thank you, brother." Martha was not polite. She took the rabbit leg and said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, brother, what are you going to do in the future?" Martha asked after taking a bite of the rabbit leg and swallowing it.

What was he going to do? Tony hadn't really thought about it.

After retreating to Thessalonica, the Thracian army would certainly attack the city. However, given Thracian's combat effectiveness, it was really difficult for them to capture this big city alone. Therefore, the most likely possibility was that part of the army would harass and contain the Roman army in the province of Macedonia, while the main force would go north to divide the province of Dacia north of Macedonia together with the Germans, one of the empire's biggest concerns, and the Armenians, who had been flirting with the Parthian Empire.

But there was only one final result, which was that they were defeated by the Roman Empire which reacted quickly.

What happened next? The refugees living in Thessalonica naturally went back to their respective homes and to their respective mothers, and Tony also had to return to Riverwood.

But is Tony willing to go back?

Forced to travel through time and space to this world, Tony gave up a lot, including family, friendship, the love that was about to come, and his own bright future, and came to the Roman Empire. Is Tony willing to live in this countryside forever?

How could I be willing to do that!

Although this world is not like the world in the previous life, where girls will only be willing to marry you if you have a car and a house, but no matter which world it is, no one will complain about having too much money!

Tony had read those time-travel novels before. Now that it was his turn to travel through time, how could he not do something big? He was a modern man! Even if his academic performance was not good before, if he were put into this era, he would be hundreds or even thousands of years ahead of the technology of this era!

There was a chapter title in a novel that Tony still remembers vividly.

Be a real man and take a chance!

It is true that in this world, even if Tony does nothing to maintain the status quo, he can still get married and have children. However, he is not satisfied with the status quo. He wants to give it a try and see how far he can go in another world!

At this time, Tony had already made up his mind to go out and try his luck, although he would not tell Tita and the others about this for the time being.

Seeing that Tony didn't answer for a long time, Martha roughly guessed what Tony was thinking.

In fact, it's not his fault. If he goes out and explores the world, he might be able to make a name for himself, but staying here seems to guarantee that he will have enough food and clothing.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the Roman Empire can win a great victory in this war.

And even if you want to leave now, how do you tell your family?

Although Martha now knows that Tony has no blood relationship with Antonio's family, both Tony and Antonio's family basically agree that Tony is a member of Antonio's family.

"Let's talk about this later. After all, I'm still young now." After a long silence, Tony finally spoke.

"Be good, no matter what decision you make, I will support you." Tita was still happy to hear that Tony did not directly express his intention to leave.

"Alright, alright, let's stop talking about these nonsense, eat quickly and go to bed." Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Martha quickly tried to smooth things over and change the subject.

"Yeah, when we get to the city, sister will give you a bath, okay?" Tita looked at Tony and said with a smile.

"Pfft...oh shit..." Tony was shocked by Tita's words!

Speaking of bathhouse culture, Tony thinks the first ones to be recommended are the bathhouse culture of Japan and the bathhouse culture of the Roman Empire. Needless to say, there are more than 2,600 hot springs in a small Japanese archipelago. Tony would never believe that a bathhouse culture could not be developed under such geographical conditions.

The bathhouse culture of the Roman Empire can be summed up in four words: luxury and debauchery.

The bathhouse culture of the Roman Empire is a bit interesting.

Generally speaking, the staff of a city are mostly elected by the citizens. In order to get more votes, these people naturally have to give some benefits to the citizens, such as repairing a bathhouse with their own money. The admission fee to such bathhouses is low or even free. The most important thing is that most of the bathhouses in the Roman Empire are mixed bathing for men and women!

Before Emperor Hadrian issued an order banning men and women from bathing together in the second century AD, the bathhouses in the Roman Empire were not much better than the Yingchunlou in ancient East China.

Of course, Tony understood what Tita meant. It was just a simple bath, but going to those bathhouses to take a bath... Tony felt that he might not be able to see enough by then!

The total collection is now 98, the recommendation votes are 56, the monthly votes are 5, and 17 chapters are owed

The next update requires a total collection of 104, a recommendation of 61, or a monthly ticket of 6. You can choose any one of these.

Chapter 18: The heroine makes a shining debut! (Additional update 7)

Although Martha had never been to these bathhouses, she had traveled extensively for so many years. As a Roman citizen living in Jerusalem, she had some knowledge of the bathhouses in the Roman Empire. She coughed lightly and said, "Sister Tita, I know you love your brother very much, but even if you want to give him a bath, you have to do it in your own bathhouse. After all, it is a public place, right? If you do this, everyone will think that your brother is a child who never grows up."

No, no, no, please be sure to do this. If anyone dares to say that I can't grow up, I will burst his ass in a minute!

Tony complained madly in his mind.

But as a "good boy", Tony didn't show these words on his face.

"Okay, okay, it's night time now. If you don't want to die, just be quiet and don't attract the enemy patrol." At this moment, a mercenary not far away came over quietly and spoke to Tony and others in a low voice.

"Oh, sorry, sorry. We will pay attention." Marda knew that her voice just now seemed a little loud, so she quickly apologized to the mercenary.

After the mercenary left, Martha told her brothers and sisters to go to bed.

Then it's Tony's welfare time.

Yes, you guessed it right!

The place where Tony is currently located has a Mediterranean climate. As we all know, the temperature difference between day and night in the Mediterranean climate is large in summer. It is extremely hot during the day, and extremely cold at night if you are outside. Considering that Tony himself is relatively weak, a wool blanket is probably not warm enough, so Tita reached out and held Tony in her arms to warm him with her body.

Of course, Tita was only thirteen years old after all, and her body had not yet developed much, so when being held in the arms of a loli with front armored steel plates, Tony only felt that his arms were uncomfortable.

Although he is a lolita complex, Tony thinks that he should be the one hugging the little loli instead of the little loli hugging him...

If Tita was the flat Marathon Plain, then Martha, who was sleeping with him in her arms, was Mount Olympus.

Although it's not that exaggerated, it's really a sharp contrast compared to Tita.

Being hugged by the two girls like this, Tony was so excited that he couldn't sleep in the first half of the night. He finally fell asleep in the second half of the night.

Early the next morning, at daybreak, at the urging of the mercenaries, everyone got up reluctantly and continued to move towards Thessalonica.

Speaking of which, the refugee team from Ximu Town was quite lucky. During the three days of escape, they did not encounter any enemy reconnaissance teams. They arrived at the gate of Thessaloniki safely.

"Stop, what are you doing!" Seeing a large group of people rushing towards the city gate, a commander on the city wall quickly ordered his men to draw their bows and arrows, aiming at the refugees from Ximu Town.

"I'm Aulus, the mayor of Ximu Town. Three days ago, Ximu Town was attacked by Thracian cavalry. Now I would like to ask the sir to be kind enough to let us in." Aulus rode his horse to the city gate, dismounted, and shouted at the city wall.

"From Ximu Town? You can't go in!" The officer looked at the crowd carefully and said to Oulus.

"Why?" When they heard that they were not allowed to enter the city, there was a commotion among the crowd.

If we don't enter the city and wait until the Thracian cavalry catches up to us, will we still be alive?

"Why?" The officer on the city wall sneered and said, "Can you guarantee that there are no enemy spies among you? Also, what's the matter with the heretic standing so blatantly in the middle of you?"

Aulus looked back at Marda, then explained to the officer: "She is the savior of our town. It is because of her that we are able to survive!"

"But what does this have to do with me? Heretics are not allowed to enter the city, that's the rule! Mayor Aulus, you took in this heretic, it looks like you'll have to appear before the consul later." The commander sneered, looked down at Aulus, and said.

Aulus gritted his teeth and said nothing.

In this age of theocracy, harboring heretics in a small town is a crime no less serious than treason. If the consul is a bit cruel and uses this as an excuse to massacre your entire town, then no one else will have anything to say!

In any case, even if this consul was not so cruel, Aulus’ life would definitely be in danger!

"How about this, you guys go into the city first, I want to take a walk outside by myself." Knowing that she was in trouble, Martha looked at the people around her and forced a smile.

If it came to letting this girl go, everyone would definitely be reluctant. After all, these few days had passed, and everyone knew what this girl had done. Did they have to drive her away and let her wander in this dangerous place simply because she was a heretic?

But if they are not driven away, all of them will die. Even if the consul is kind enough not to kill them, they will sooner or later be killed by the Thracian army in this land.

Tony said nothing.
