Type-Moon: My Destiny Guide

Whether the world is destroyed or not is irrelevant to him, but Fujimaru Ritsuka is someone he is unwilling to harm. After all, in a sense, he is Fujimaru Ritsuka, and Fujimaru Ritsuka is him.

That's why Shuoyue became even more careful, afraid that she might do something that would be counterproductive or irreversible.

"Then there's Nero. I didn't remind her about anything. Ah, I'm really strange."

Thinking this, Shuoyue couldn't help but sigh with melancholy.

I feel increasingly conflicted.

Chapter 268 Early Morning, Bedroom, Lonely Man and Woman.jpg

After a agonizing night, the Chaldea members bid farewell to Nero early the next morning and headed to Mount Etna to set up the ley lines.

Shuoyue invited Nero to accompany her, but Nero stopped her, dragged her to his bedroom/office, and then...

“Hmm… (staring—)” With his chin resting on the table, the emperor, dressed in a red dress, made a soft and endearing whimper like a little animal.

Ahead of her, the white-haired commander was reading Roman military strategy, not even glancing at the nominal emperor.

Seeing the coldness of the new moon, Nero pouted her red lips, fell back onto the large bed, and began to roll around.

Shuoyue: Reading a book.

"boom!"

A soft pillow filled with feathers, straw, and reeds flew over and smeared it on the white-haired man's face, finally forcing him to close the book. He sighed and grabbed the pillow.

"His Majesty……"

"Governor!" Even when feigning anger, Nero's tone was soft and gentle, almost like she was pleading, "Please talk to me!"

"No, I refuse. His Majesty isn't that free." The white-haired general said expressionlessly, pointing to her desk. "The official documents are already piling up."

"Gulp..." Looking at the mountain of documents, Nero swallowed hard, making a rather embarrassing sound, and then started rolling around on the bed again. "I...I haven't eaten yet, I'm so hungry I can't move!"

"You don't look like you're so hungry you're weak." Shuoyue threw the pillow back at her in annoyance. "The Senate will come to collect the documents before noon. Let's see what excuse you come up with then."

"Find an excuse to refuse?!" Shuoyue's casual remark immediately perked Nero up, as if he had found a new way to approach the situation. "How come I didn't think of that? You truly are worthy of being called the Governor!"

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense..." Shuoyue opened her mouth, feeling deeply apologetic to the officials who were eagerly waiting.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am guilty. I instigated this foolish emperor, leading her to take another step down the path of a tyrant.

However, Nero's mischievous ideas were not over yet. She thought for a while with "mmm" sounds, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She raised her upper body like a seal, patted the soft bed with her fair arms, and gave the white-haired general an expectant smile.

"Governor, I'm sleepy. Would you like to sleep with me? My bed is quite big, isn't it?"

As long as the governor with outstanding military achievements is involved, even the Senate wouldn't dare to say anything, right? That's what Nero thought.

However, the girl was unaware that as she lay on the bed with her head raised like a swan, her clothes were stretched taut, outlining her alluring curves, and the soft pillow pressed against her chest accentuated her fair skin, an irresistible temptation for any adult man.

Faced with Nero's enthusiastic invitation, Shuoyue shamefully remained silent, and after a long while, she reluctantly looked away: "Stop fooling around."

"Hehehe..." Sensing the governor's wavering, the blonde girl laughed even harder, "Come on, come on~~ Eeya!"

Amidst gasps of surprise, the white-haired general appeared expressionlessly beside her and lightly tapped her shapely buttocks with the scabbard of his sword.

"Mind your manners, you foolish emperor!"

"Ugh!" Nero jumped up, clutching his backside, and leaned against the wall like a startled deer. Looking at Shuoyue, who was no longer indifferent but had adopted an aggressive stance, his large, watery eyes were filled with panic. "Governor... what are you doing? I am the Emperor!"

"A lone man and a lone woman in a room, now you realize the danger?" Shuoyue sneered, tapping her palm with the scabbard, making a dangerous "slap slap" sound, as she approached Nero step by step.

Nero, watching the new moon draw ever closer, opened his mouth as if to speak, but then abruptly closed his eyes, adopting a posture of complete surrender.

New moon: ? ? ?

Wait, this plot isn't right! Shouldn't Nero be issuing the order to refuse, consuming his last Command Seal, and then freeing himself to roam the world? He finally managed to fool the Chaldea people last night!

What's with this "whatever you do, I'll just give up" attitude?

After a long pause, Nero quietly opened her eyes. When she saw that Sakumo was staring at her with a complicated expression, she quickly closed her eyes again and continued to play dead.

However, Shuoyue had no intention of continuing. He sheathed his sword, sighed, and patted the emperor's head.

"Stop fooling around, Your Majesty. Let's deal with the official documents after breakfast... I'll help you."

When Nero opened his eyes, Sakuya had already left the bedroom, leaving only the disheveled blonde girl with seductive eyes sitting blankly on the big bed, suddenly letting out a silly "hehehe" laugh.

Ah, this emperor seems to have gone mad.

After offering the breakfast she had personally prepared to His Majesty the Emperor, and having a few minutes of quiet time, Shuoyue leaned back in her chair and began to organize the mountain of official documents.

"Governor, aren't you going to eat?"

"No need, Servants don't need to take in nutrients," the white-haired commander replied skillfully.

"Hmm." After a brief pause, Nero began chanting again.

"Governor, this oatmeal porridge is cooked just right, it warms my stomach!"

"Governor, are you really not going to eat any? These grapes were just picked this morning, they're so sweet!"

"Governor, Governor..."

"Your Majesty, can't you be quiet for once?" With a slight headache, Shuoyue put down the official documents and turned around with a wry smile.

Those emerald eyes held a light that pierced through the blood-red veil, carrying a young girl's concern, and explored Shuoyue's heart in the touch of their gaze.

"Governor, is something on your mind?"

Shuoyue was stunned.

He suddenly realized that although Nero acted affectionately, even somewhat adorably silly, she was, after all, the emperor, and the Augustus who had governed Rome so well.

How could he lower his guard in front of such a bright young girl?

Seeing Nero's worried expression, Shuoyue hesitated for a long time before nodding.

"Yes, it's about one of my subordinates."

Perhaps Nero can give him the answer he wants.

With this thought in mind, Shuoyue sorted through official documents and carefully crafted her words, subtly informing the emperor about Karen's situation.

"Hmm, so, Governor, what is your confusion?"

"Should I go against her wishes and do what I think is a rescue? Or should I obey her will and let her continue like this... Hmph, I really have become weak."

"This isn't just a problem for one person; it applies to countries and the world as a whole, Governor."

"how you said that?"

Having uttered nonsensical words, Nero sat on the bed, clutching a pillow, and said earnestly, "I want Rome to become better, but are the measures I have promulgated truly what the people expect? Will this decree actually harm anyone?"

“I could think about this for a whole night, a day, a week, a year… but even so, it is impossible to be perfect, because human wisdom has its limits, and there will always be oversights and setbacks.”

"But if you do nothing, nothing will change, Governor."

The young woman looked at the pensive white-haired man and a gentle smile appeared on her face:

"Wanting to protect someone, but that desire turns into a poison that hurts each other; wanting to save the world, but the love for the world becomes the root of destruction... Isn't this kind of thing normal?"

“But Governor, my servant, if we stand still because of such concerns, humanity will not be able to move forward.”

On that morning, Venus, with her blonde hair and blue eyes, uttered the devil's whispers through her delicate red lips.

"If you want the answer, just go and do it, and you'll find out."

Speaking of which, if Nero were to be overthrown now, I wonder who would benefit, since Nero and Musashi are related, well, you know what I mean (laughing and crying).

Chapter 269 The Emperor Leads the Expedition Across the Ocean

What troubled Nero was never political affairs, but the monotonous daily labor.

After Shuoyue joined, the carefree emperor chatted idly while quickly clearing away all the 'clutter' on the table.

After instructing his servant to take away the official documents, Shuoyue rubbed his temples, looked out at the vast blue sky, and unconsciously fell into deep thought.

Nero remained silent, resting her chin on her hand, tilting her head slightly, and smiling as she looked at the governor's handsome face, his blood-red agate eyes, and his silvery hair that shimmered in the sunlight.

The memories from her dream were vivid, like the gentle touch of the governor stroking her hair. The composure of a renowned general and the vigor of youth were perfectly blended in Shuoyue, like a finely mixed wine, exuding a rich and mysterious aroma that was intoxicating.

She longed to break the seal on the jar of fine wine and drink its mellow nectar.

Hmm, that would be an incredibly wonderful experience.

As Nero pondered this, a silly smile crept across her lips, completely unaware that Shuoyue had already snapped out of her reverie and was squinting at her cheerful expression.

Rome is probably doomed.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

"Your Majesty, the guests from Chaldea have returned."

"Hmm... Oh!" Nero turned around and quickly stood up. "They're all back. That's perfect. I should get some exercise too!"

"You just came back from my place, didn't you?" Shuoyue also got up and followed the bustling Emperor to meet Fujimaru Ritsuka in the hall.

"Hey, how was your trip to the spiritual veins?"

"Although we encountered some ghosts that were not part of the physical system, with the help of the shadow servants, we managed to set up the nodes."

Even without the protection of the little eggplant by his side, Fujimaru's face still radiated a determined look.

“Shadow Followers, huh…” Shuoyue seemed to be deep in thought.

Although it was first introduced in the subspecies singularity of Shimousa that Fujimaru Ritsuka could fight by summoning shadow Servants, it is clear that in the terrible timeline where Mash was lost, Fujimaru had already mastered this ability, which gave him the power to protect himself before finding a lone Servant.

Seeing that Sakuzuki and Fujimaru had finished their conversation, Nero eagerly joined the conversation, revealing her plans:

"I apologize, although you have all just returned, I am currently planning an expedition to Gaul! Of course, it would be meaningless if I didn't personally lead the expedition. My purpose is to encourage my men who are fighting a hard battle and to lend them a helping hand. I hope that Fujimaru and the Governor-General can accompany me. What do you say, would you like to come along?"

“Yes, or rather, I hope you can send me to the front lines if possible.” Fujimaru Ritsuka answered without hesitation. “Revelynor is our enemy, and we must not let such a cruel man who murdered the director get away with it.”

During their conversation with Nero, Chaldea learned that there was a figure in the Allied Forces who could wield powerful magic, and it was clear that Raef, who possessed the Holy Grail, was most likely hiding in the headquarters of the Allied Empire.

“Very well, I understand. I, Nero Claudius, will fulfill this wish. I will also petition the gods and ancestors of Rome, and bless you gentlemen to successfully annihilate the enemy!”

With Fujimaru Ritsuka's consent, Nero smiled happily, while secretly glancing at the white-haired governor with a calm expression.

Whether it was expected or unexpected, her follower shook his head and refused.
