I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

"My fun! It's Lord Lucius!"

The vendor's voice instantly attracted the attention of everyone around. The noise on the street stopped abruptly, and all eyes were focused on Lucius.

The next moment, as if a barrel of explosives had been ignited, the entire street instantly became boiling.

"It's really Lord Lucius!"

"I'm so glad you're safe!"

"Lucius is awesome!"

"Spring breeze... The old sword shines again before the battle, the cold light is as sharp as it was in the past!"

"Anyone who wants to save Splenda needs Tiberius's consent, but it is clear that Tiberius agreed."

...

Shouts rose and fell like a tide. People stopped what they were doing and rushed to Lucius, their eyes full of admiration and gratitude.

The public's reaction was not surprising.

Not to mention that the mission of watching "weightlifting" saved tens of thousands of people, more credit should be given to Tiberius.

When that guy issued the crime notice, he happened to mention Lucius, making everyone know that he and Lucius were sworn enemies.

Now, Lucius appeared before them safely, and the turmoil in Splenda was over. Didn't this prove that it was Lucius who resolved the crisis?

Facing the people's enthusiasm and praise, Lucius had a gentle smile on his face and responded to everyone kindly.

The late Emperor Caesar, who led the coalition forces of the Prime Material Plane to drive the Burning Legion back to the High Heavens, was the greatest savior the people of Splenda had ever heard of.

And Lucius was the greatest savior they had ever seen.

Even among the streets and alleys, various stories of Lucius's heroic performances have begun to spread.

"Lucius, you're talking about the Bull Demon. If I don't kill you, Tiberius, I, Lucius, will immediately reopen today!"

"Your grandma's triangle basket! Lucius's greatsword swung with such precision that it blew the pants off the Second Prince of the Empire, Tiberius..."

"Lucius bent down, picked up a stone, said 'Damn Chaos,' and threw it upwards with all his might!"

"Soon, the temple in the sky suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and then retreated back to the highest heaven..."

"Lucius said—this is the divine domain of the Supreme Evil God. It has been hovering over Splenda, infringing on our sovereignty. I have tolerated it for a long time!"

Hearing this, the crowd applauded and felt proud that the empire had such a great hero.

Lucius:? ? ?

"Brother Lu, you are now completely famous."

Iveliya murmured softly, her tone containing a hint of ridicule mixed with pride.

She held Lucius's arm tightly, as if declaring her possession to everyone.

Lucius could only smile bitterly and shook his head.

..........................

Chatting and laughing all the way, Lucius and Ivilia finally arrived at the Brunhild family's mansion.

It doesn't look like it was affected too much here.

The flowers and plants in the garden are still blooming and the buildings are intact, which shows that the protective measures are quite complete.

Lucius took Iveliya to the main door, and just as they rang the doorbell, the door was quickly opened.

"Master Lucius, you are here!"

When the servant saw Lucius, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face:

"Since you're here, it means the crisis outside is over, right?"

"Come in! The master is in the reception room."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Lucius nodded politely and then walked into the mansion with Iveliya.

When he arrived at the reception room, Lucius saw Chancellor Otto from afar.

However, when he saw the appearance of Chancellor Otto clearly, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The Chancellor Otto in front of him was no longer the majestic and dignified imperial official.

The big beard that he had grown for many years and carefully groomed every day, which he regarded as a symbol of masculinity, had now disappeared without a trace.

His chin was completely bald, without even a trace of beard left.

Without his beard, Chancellor Otto looked several years younger, but he also lost his original majesty.

What's even worse is that due to years of beard, the skin on his chin is much whiter than the rest of his face, forming a clear dividing line that looks particularly funny.

At this time, Chancellor Otto's expression was quite depressed, and the words "I'm unhappy" were almost written on his face.

"puff......"

Iveliya also saw the look on Prime Minister Otto's face and almost laughed out loud, and quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

Hearing the laughter, Chancellor Otto raised his head, and the depressed look on his face became even more intense.

"Lucius, you're here..."

Chancellor Otto's voice sounded weak, completely lacking the usual sense of authority and finality.

"Has the unrest outside been resolved?"

"Yes, it's been resolved."

Lucius tried hard to control his laughter and answered with a serious expression:

"Grandpa Otto, your new look... is quite unique."

His eyes involuntarily lingered on Chancellor Otto's smooth chin for a few seconds, making the other's face suddenly turn as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Don't mention it."

Chancellor Otto waved his hands irritably.

"Damn Chaos scum, you actually made me shave!"

"I've had this beard for twenty years... twenty years!"

"It's all gone now, all gone!"

As he spoke, Chancellor Otto involuntarily touched his smooth chin, his eyes filled with nostalgia for his lost beard.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

Chancellor Otto shook his head, obviously not wanting to dwell on this topic any further:

"It's good that things are resolved peacefully."

"By the way, I don't know what's wrong with Nora. She has been locked in her room since this afternoon and won't come out."

"I don't know what her mission is, but she doesn't want to see anyone right now."

"You guys go see her, I'm here..."

"I need to be alone."

After saying this, Chancellor Otto waved his hand and signaled the two to leave.

He is in a very bad mood now and doesn't want to communicate with anyone.

Especially when facing someone as familiar as Lucius, he always felt that the other party was secretly laughing at him.

Hearing this, Lucius felt a surge of curiosity.

In the previous simulation, he had focused entirely on Plotina and hadn't paid much attention to what happened to other people.

He really didn't know what Nora's mission was.

"I see. Let's go up and take a look."

Lucius nodded, then took Ivilia upstairs.

Behind him, Chancellor Otto watched the two men leave, then subconsciously touched his bald chin, his eyes full of resentment.

Now he just hopes that this damn beard will grow out quickly.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have the face to see anyone in the court.

Nora's room was upstairs, and Lucius arrived at her door familiarly without the maid's guidance.

This proficiency naturally attracted Iveliya's jealous gaze.

"Little Nora, be good and open the door~"

Lucius knocked gently on the door and identified himself.

There was immediately a flurry of activity from inside the door, as if something had fallen to the ground, followed by hurried footsteps.

"Brother Lu, Brother Lucius?"

Nora's voice came from inside the door, sounding obviously trembling and nervous:

"Please, please wait a moment..."

"I'll open the door right away..."

After a long while, the door was slowly opened.

"Brother Lucius..."

Nora stuck her head out, her delicate and cute little face was as red as a ripe apple.

After seeing Lucius, his eyes, which were already a little timid, kept dodging like a frightened little rabbit.

She held the door frame tightly with both hands, then looked at Ivilia standing behind Lucius and whispered:

"Aviliya, you're here too..."

Seeing Nora's shy look, Lucius immediately guessed that everything must be related to her mission.

For a moment, he and Ivilia exchanged a confused look.

"Nora, can we go in?"

Lucius asked gently.

"Of course..."

Nora quickly stepped aside to let the two enter the room.

Nora's room was tidy, but there were a lot of waste papers scattered on the desk, which looked like drafts that had been written and torn up.

It looked like she was busy writing something, but it wasn't going well.

"Nora, do you know what's happening outside?"

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Lucius took the initiative to guide the conversation:

"Have you been affected in any way?"

"Apart from some brief changes to the house, there hasn't been much impact."

Nora shook her head, trying to appear calmer.

"Grandpa had a lot of protective barriers set up around the house, so the house is very safe."

"only......"

Her voice became as thin as a mosquito's:

"It's just that the parchment suddenly appeared, and then..."

When she said this, her face turned redder, obviously thinking about the content of her task.

"By the way, Brother Lucius, have you resolved the issues outside?"

Nora quickly changed the subject, with worry in her eyes:

"Sister Plotina..."

"Everything is resolved."
