My Heroic Life
My Heroic Life Chapter 388
After a soft whisper, the girl stood on tiptoe and kissed Achilles' lips. The young man did not hide after a brief hesitation.
As a thank you gift, it’s really hard to refuse. Besides, it’s my reward for saving people. It’s still a profit this time...well!what happened!my body......
The young man who received the kiss from the girl suddenly opened his eyes wide. He felt his body gradually numb, his strength seemed to be drawn out of his body in one breath. He raised his hand to push the woman in his arms, but found that he couldn't do it.
Damn it!It's a trap, boss...
At the last moment, I thought of Roland's youth who lost consciousness and collapsed, and beside him, the gray-skinned girl's face was calm again, seemingly not as cold as emotion.
"mission completed."
--------------------------
"Huh? Do you want me to go to the Demon Realm first? It's too early?"
Early the next morning, Roland, who had not had time to go out, received a notice from the staff, saying that Nero asked him to go to the Demon Realm first, and then follow him.
"Hey? What about the original plan? Wasn't it early noon?"
"His Majesty Nero needs to communicate with the Queen Mother Agripina throughout the morning and cannot go with Lord Roland on time."
"Well, then I'll just wait for her, but it's useless for me to go."
Roland closed his eyes slightly and was quite helpless. After all, he was only helping in the dark. He didn't have any position on the bright side. He couldn't hold the place even after he went. He only relied on his personal sign. If it was Nero's teacher, it was called Ce It's okay for the old man inside Jia to go.
After all, the old man himself has prestige and has been an emperor for a long time. With these, he can command the generals, but Roland, who has been in the post for five years at a young age, really has no capital to criticize those high-ranking officials.
"Your Majesty seems to have a dispute with the Queen Mother Agripina because of Lord Roland, so he asked you to take a step first, in case the Queen Mother leaves you here."
"...That's it."
Roland nodded after thinking about it for a while, with a bit of wry smile on his face. The pas de deux at that ball really changed his attitudes among the parties.
There are probably many reasons, the main one is probably Nero's visible attitude.
Nowadays, there are contradictions between the Roman imperial power faction and the Senate faction, and there are contradictions between the aristocratic faction and the populist faction in the Senate, and various contradictions are emerging one after another, but Nero is one of the points that cannot be avoided.
On the surface, Roland's relationship with Nero suddenly became close, but in reality...that is actually the case, but in the eyes of these conspirators, that's probably not the case.
what's the situation?Obviously, seeing each other as enemies half a month ago, how could they suddenly get close together? Is this a signal that the civilians and the imperial powers are uniting?
what happened?Obviously Nero didn't accept him at all half a month ago, and now suddenly dances with him. Considering His Majesty Nero's shortcomings and Governor Roland's strengths, has he been drawn to the emperor?
why?Doesn't His Majesty Nero hate him?How come the blue eyes suddenly increase?Is this man a supporter of His Majesty Nero?Or is it the Senate carefully selected assassins to break into the imperial power?
Well, the above is probably the speculation that the nobles, civilians, and imperial powers have been trying to figure out in the past two days.
The most anxious thing here is probably Nero's biological mother. She may indeed want to find a son-in-law, but it is definitely not to make Nero even more powerful.
"alright, I got it."
After thinking about this, Roland nodded, and after clearing up, he came to the restaurant and started the lonely breakfast time alone.
After eating slowly for half an hour, Nero still did not show up. Only the sound of the man's knife and fork hitting the plate echoed in the restaurant. Roland sighed and had to admit that he was a little uncomfortable with this kind of breakfast.
Forget it, it's rare for a quiet day to be a holiday.
The man who had finished the meal did not go to the usual hall, but was accompanied by the staff to leave the Golden Palace and boarded the plane first to leave Rome.
Chapter 41 How far can you see?
In the vehicle driving towards the border of the Demon Realm, in the seat like the first-class cabin of an airplane, the strong man was silent while stroking nearly ten glass bottles with his forehand.
It is said to be a glass bottle, but it is actually made of a special material with a quality comparable to bulletproof glass. The bottle is not large. Some are similar to the small bottles used to store liquid medicine in hospitals. The only difference is that the liquid flowing in the bottle at this time is not Pure and transparent white, but dark red blood.
So delicate that only Roland’s fingers and a joint-sized bottle are tied around his waist by a hard protective belt. The vials are like blood-colored bullets. Now, Roland is watching his bullets with a dark expression on his face. It's uncertain.
Due to the decision made during the meeting last night, Atalante, Achilles and others did not immediately follow. On the one hand, it was because of the poor communication in the Demon Realm, and on the other hand, Roland was worried that their presence in the Demon Realm would stimulate some people.
Take his civilian teammates, for example, Julius recently reminded him not to make big news anymore. Some people in the organization already suspected that he was bought by the beauty.
For these reasons, Roland did not let them appear, but now he regrets it a bit.
From the morning on, there was something wrong, no, it should be said that many things were wrong.
Roland leaned on his chin and began to go through today's experience in detail, and couldn't help talking to himself.
"None saw..."
Yes, first of all, the first point is that Roland did not see any of the maid beside Nero today. Although this may be because he did not see Nero, it is the girl group who loves to worry about giving him gossip if nothing happens. Guys, none of them came today...
Suspicious, but still within the scope of acceptance, Roland is not a person who likes to be suspicious when nothing is wrong. If it's just this difference, he wouldn't be contemplating here. What makes him a little uncomfortable now is other reasons.
First of all, he did not know the person who came to inform Nero of the news, and he had never seen the waiter at the restaurant before. Secondly, although the dishes were similar to the past, they were slightly different. The coffee was also hotter than usual. About degrees.
Although it was his instinct, he felt that there were so many gazes on him today, and he also felt uneasy inexplicably.
Of course, these can actually be explained. For example, today is the day when the chefs and waiters change shifts, or the original people are actually exclusive to Nero.
As a man who has quickly become famous for his relationship with Nero these days, it is normal for the ladies and ladies to be curious about being watched by male compatriots along the way.
"..."
Roland looked out the window, and the picturesque scenery in front of the highway was a testament to the gradual primordial nature of the natural landforms close to the magical land. It seemed that the direction and destination were not wrong.
"Are you worried?"
The man muttered to himself, he couldn't help but smiled bitterly. Maybe he was really used to being with Nero. The quiet environment even made him a little uncomfortable. Is it loneliness that he thinks now?
Thinking of some messy things, Roland leaned on the chair and opened the terminal, wanting to chat with Atalante and others, but what he didn't expect was that there was no signal.
"Master Roland, this place is too close to the Demon Realm, and the communication signal is disordered, so..."
"Ah, by the way, I forgot this, sorry."
The driver heard the tone of communication failure to remind Roland, the man smiled for a moment and lay down completely.
Forget it, I really started to be suspicious. Think about it carefully that I came out of the Golden Palace, and the Demon Realm is also under Nero's nose. What can happen to this?
Look at the scenery and relax.
The car was driving, and the man looked out the window.
---------------------------
Nero Claudius walked out of the palace of the Queen Mother Agripina, with some doubts in his heart, and a calmer expression on his face than before.
There was not much dispute today, which was a bit beyond Nero's expectation.
