In the capital of the Roman Empire, people were in panic.

As the greatest country in the West in this era, the soldiers and civilians of the Roman Empire should have been proud.

But the actual situation is that the people's livelihood in the entire city of Rome is in decline, and there are not many pedestrians on the streets, giving people a sense of absurdity and loneliness, but also a depressing feeling of dark clouds weighing on the city.

Roy and others found a place to rest and stayed temporarily. Amakusa Shirou Tokisada and St. George, relying on their many years of travel experience, easily asked about the current situation in Rome.

"My Lord, the spirit of the people in the entire city of Rome is almost stretched to the extreme and may collapse at any time."

"……A month ago, because the Senate challenged Emperor Nero, the emperor killed the entire Senate in anger. This move aroused the hatred of the entire nobles."

"Emperor Nero wanted to kill all the nobles who were hostile to her, but all the nobles united to deprive the emperor of his military and political power and imprisoned her in the palace."

"……According to the past experience of Rome, the nobles should depose the emperor or even kill him directly. However, the nobles did not do this and only detained Emperor Nero."

Saint George frowned and told about the current situation in the capital of the Roman Empire.

"It was probably to use the emperor as a scapegoat."

Amakusa Shiro Tokisada took over the words at this time. Compared to Jeanne, a village girl who only knew how to fight, and was eventually betrayed by politicians, and Martha, who was just a saint, Amakusa Shiro knew more about politics.

From St. George From his words, he guessed the nobles’ plans

"The Huns army is now approaching the city, and the nobles are also panicking. They are afraid that their wealth and power will be taken away by the Huns, so they leave Emperor Nero alive."

"……In this way, if the Huns really attacked the imperial capital, the nobles could tie up Emperor Nero and send him away as a sign of surrender, and their wealth and power might be preserved."

"Anyway, it’s just a matter of changing one’s master."

Amakusa shrugged, feeling sincerely unhappy with these politicians and nobles.

He was framed by these people during the Shimabara Rebellion.

"Hahaha, sure enough, no matter what era, there are these disgusting guys, they are exactly the same as those ugly nobles in France!"

"……These bastards should be burned down, so that I can relieve the hatred in my heart!"

When the Dragon Witch heard Amakusa's words, she showed a wild smile and said bitterly.

Then she looked at Joan of Arc, and said with a ferocious smile as if she was being bewitched by a demon:"……Hey, Saint, don’t you have any thoughts or expressions?"

The Holy Maiden of Orleans lowered her head and said with a soft smile:"……I have no thoughts or expressions. Everything they do is under the watchful eye of our Lord."

"……After death they will surely be judged, and that is the Lord's power, not mine."

Joan of Arc's words that sounded like a devout believer made the Dragon Witch click her tongue and muttered:"……You are so boring!"

When St. George saw everyone finished speaking, this gentle and steady saint said again:"……Just when the Roman capital was in turmoil, Romulus, the founder of Rome and the heroic ancestor of the Seven Hills, came as a heroic spirit."

"……The status of this divine ancestor in Rome was comparable to that of Jupiter and Mars. His appearance temporarily stabilized the morale of the army, and he led the remaining Roman troops out of the city to fight the Huns."

"Under the leadership of Romulus, the Roman army temporarily blocked the Huns army thirty kilometers outside the city of Rome, which gave the whole of Rome a reassurance."

"……According to the information I received, Emperor Nero wanted to liquidate the nobles who imprisoned her, but the god Romulus stopped her."

"But now the city of Rome is still under high-pressure rule, and no soldiers, civilians or nobles are allowed to leave."

As soon as St. George finished speaking, the Dragon Witch sneered:"……Ha, this is the daily method of those big shots."

"……If Nero allowed the Roman residents to leave, the city would soon be deserted. Even now, there are no people on the streets here."

Others ignored the witch's ridicule, but they also agreed with her words.

"Emperor Nero should not have made such a big mistake. Whether it was killing everyone in the Senate or liquidating all the nobles, these were not choices a qualified emperor would make."

"……It seems that the beast in her heart has eaten away at her sanity, which is why she resorted to such a method that only involves violence but no imperial skills."

"Fortunately, Romulus prevented her liquidation. Otherwise, if Nero had killed all the nobles, the city of Rome would have collapsed."

"……In this era, knowledge was only in the hands of a few nobles. Without those nobles to help the emperor govern, the entire country's administrative system would collapse."

"From this point of view, human society is constantly progressing. In two thousand years, when all people have received basic education and knowledge is not monopolized, this situation will never happen again."

Roy said with a gentle smile.

Hearing his words, Joan of Arc also sighed:"……My Lord is right. I once participated in the modern Holy Grail War. In that era, even a country girl like me could receive an education."

"……They are not like me who can only do some simple arithmetic."

There was deep envy in Joan of Arc's words.

The Dragon Witch laughed and said with a smile:"……You can only do simple arithmetic, you are so stupid, Holy Lady!"

As for Joan of Arc, this dragon witch always likes to go against her.

Joan of Arc glanced at the witch, with a pure and pious smile on her lips, and said:"……So can you do complex arithmetic?"

The Dragon Witch's breath was suffocated, and she said angrily:"……I was created based on you. If it weren't for you, how could I not do it! Joan of Arc looked embarrassed for a moment, then she thought about it and said:"……But, but I can write my name, and I also know some words!"

"Of course I can also write the name!!"

The Dragon Witch jumped up. She directly found a pen and paper, and crookedly, like a ghost drawing a talisman, she wrote the French name Jeanne d'Arc on the paper.

It can be seen from her stiff and unfamiliar movements. Come on, she has never written before, and this may be the first time she has written in her life.

Looking at the words she wrote that were as ugly as shit, Hei Zhen blushed, and Jeanne beside her did not dare to speak. , with the same head lowered as Heizhen.

Because of the Holy Maiden of Orleans, her writing is not much better than that of Heizhen.

Seeing these two idiots arguing on such a boring issue, Roy shook his head helplessly.

"You guys wait for me here, I'm going to see the Roman emperor."

Roy said at this time.

We can't delay it. With Romulus now, Nero is likely to stabilize his emotions because Rome is saved.

And what Roy has to do is to give this The emperor struck a fatal blow, releasing the beast in her heart.

Sometimes, to awaken the beast, you don't need to use coercive means like the power of the devil. Just breaking the other person's heart is enough to make a person collapse.
