In the world of Type-Moon, it all begins with becoming Morgan's husband!

Because she soon saw Ian.

Their gazes met in the Senate at that moment.

Then came the man's encouraging nod.

In an instant, Nero seemed to be under some kind of magical spell, and he was no longer nervous at all.

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

“My teacher said I would become the emperor of Rome, so I absolutely cannot let myself be tripped up by something like this.”

Nero convinced himself of this, and then felt a surge of courage within him.

Your existence is indeed quite important to Nero.

[She sensed your gaze and began to speak normally about her views on Rome.]

Just as the girl had promised, she had indeed made considerable preparations.

[Not just you, everyone present was surprised by this girl's unique idea.]

【after all--】

Nero's way of thinking was truly unique; most people couldn't reach her level.

However, at the same time, she possesses exceptional debating skills, which allows her to convince others that it is indeed a good idea.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly until someone started targeting her.

The Senate is not as peaceful as it appears.

There are complex power struggles within, and naturally, there is also a lack of conservative attitudes towards outsiders.

Nero's speech was indeed excellent, and it could be said that it far exceeded the level of awareness that one would expect from someone her age.

But for the conservatives, this was too radical an idea.

Soon, people began to attack Nero herself, focusing on her background.

A nobleman stood up.

“Miss Nero, your views on Rome are indeed very insightful.”

"The implementation of a series of policies that benefit the people is particularly refreshing."

"but--"

"It seems unreasonable for someone your age to have such insight—could it be that during a difficult childbirth, you absorbed the wisdom from your mother through the power of the devil?"

"..."

"..."

The whole house was silent.

Everyone knew this was a blatant attack, but no one dared to say anything about it.

The reason is simple: in Rome, a difficult childbirth was an absolute omen of bad luck, and it was impossible to refute this from an outsider's perspective.

After all, this was contrary to the understanding of the Romans.

Ian became worried at this moment.

This was something he had never taught Nero before—he had underestimated the malice hidden within the Senate.

Will she... be okay?

However, the man knew he absolutely could not panic, so he simply watched Nero silently, offering her emotional support.

This attention did indeed affect her mindset.

Faced with this question, Nero answered calmly.

“You’re right, my mother did have a difficult childbirth when she gave birth to me.”

"But for her, it was actually a form of protection."

"Protect?"

“Yes.” Nero spread his arms as if making a declaration, “Because during that time, my hometown of Ubiolum encountered a demon.”

“Countless mothers suffered complications during childbirth as a result—but only my mother survived.”

"Isn't this... all thanks to me?"

"..."

"..."

There was silence again.

While Nero's statement was indeed shocking, it was also irrefutable.

After all, to deny her statement would be tantamount to blaming the children of mothers who died in childbirth for not being strong enough.

That's a really nice answer!

Seeing Nero like this, Ian felt a sense of relief.

She... is indeed growing.

The speech concluded successfully.

This is destined to leave a significant mark on the history of Rome.

She's back by your side.

"Teacher, how did I do today?" Nero asked, hands behind his back, feigning ignorance.

Ian, of course, didn't mind indulging her vanity at this moment, so he went along with it.

"Not bad—you actually came up with that kind of retort."

“Hmm~” Nero put his hands on his hips. “This is something the teacher said—of course I remember it.”

"In short, teacher, I did very well today and didn't embarrass you, right?"

"Yes."

“Well—” Nero licked his lips.

"Should I ask for a reward?"

"award?"

“Hmm.” Nero took Ian’s arm and pointed into the distance.

"teacher--!"

"Come with me to the baths in Rome!"

395. Nero's Bathhouse Offensive / Kissing Tutorial / Forbidden Promise (4k)

To be fair, this was never something you should have promised Nero to do.

After all, as a teacher, just having your arm linked with hers like this is already quite inappropriate.

However, Nero's performance in the Senate today was indeed quite good.

It's time to reward her properly.

Unlike the outlying city of Upiorum, Rome, as the imperial capital, had an absolute advantage in both economy and population.

The reality led to the considerable development of various places in Rome that were closely related to the population.

This naturally includes bathhouses.

"..." Ian looked at Nero, who was holding his arm, and his expression became somewhat hesitant.

"Nero, are you serious?"

"You...you really want to go to the bathhouse?"

"Hmm." Nero nodded. "Teacher, you wouldn't even agree to this, would you?"

“If that happens—I’ll be sad for a whole day.”

“I never said anything like that,” Ian said, looking at Nero who was feigning sadness. “I just didn’t expect you to say it.”

“Mmmmm!”

Nero drew out the last syllable of his voice.

"That means the teacher is willing to agree!"

"Even if I don't agree, you'll still drag me along, right?" Ian reached out and gently stroked Nero's soft hair, which felt almost like fine wool.

"However, you did perform very well today—I am very pleased to see you perform so well in the Senate."

"Hmm~" Nero was even happier. "Then let's go!"

On the streets of Rome, a couple could be seen heading to the baths.

Of course, you didn't agree to Nero's request on a whim.

As the most developed region in the entire empire, Rome's bathhouses now had a relatively complete system in place.

The most important aspect of this was the separation of men's and women's bathing.

So you're sure that even if you go to the bathhouse with Nero, there won't be any overly intimate contact?

【but--】

Nero, however, taught you a harsh lesson at this crucial moment.

She booked the entire bathhouse in your name.

Stepping into the Roman Baths is like entering a world of luxury.

The towering buildings, the magnificent decorations, and the steaming bathrooms are all breathtaking.

There is a spacious hall with an exquisitely inlaid stained glass ceiling, stone sculptures hanging on the walls, and smooth marble floors. Just looking at it gives you a feeling of extreme luxury.

However, for Ian, at this moment, he only felt that he had been deceived.

He never imagined that Nero had already booked the entire bathhouse in his own name before the speech even began.
