Five people including Ian came here again.

However, compared to yesterday's simple exchange of information, the content of today's conversation was obviously more targeted.

"What ideas do you have about the next action goal?" Ian, who had been regarded as the leader, kicked off the conversation.

"Then of course it's to find the thing called the Holy Grail?"

Jing Ke was the first to respond to Ian's question. She was obviously feeling a little uncomfortable as she hadn't been able to say anything yesterday.

"After all, according to Tamamonomae's theory yesterday, this place called the singularity appeared because of that strange Holy Grail, right?"

Although there was not much difference between what Jing Ke said and what she didn't say, Ian still nodded to show that he agreed with her statement.

"You are right. We should indeed find the Holy Grail back."

“But the question now is where to look?”

"Xiaoyu?" Ian looked at the fox demon who had served him all night, "You should have more experience in this area - do you have any suggestions?"

"Well... Master, if you want to ask that." Tamamonomae took out her mirror again, "Actually, for me, being able to sense the will hidden in the Holy Grail is almost the limit of what it can do."

"Until I understand something more profound, I can only stop here."

What this means is that Tamamonomae has no better solution now.

"that--"

Mashu raised her hand at this moment, but then realized that this seemed too ostentatious, and quickly retracted it.

But Ian certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to let her speak.

After all, it is really rare to see Mashu raising her hand on her own initiative.

"Mashu, what's wrong? Is there something you want to say?"

"that is……"

Mashu looked at the communication device on her wrist.

That was a new thing that bb, the super AI, came up with after joining Chaldea, using the few remaining spots.

It is more stable than the original device and will no longer lose contact with Chaldea so often.

"Senior, I wonder if we can contact BB and ask her to help us find the traces of the Holy Grail left by this singularity?"

"It's a good idea, but it's a pity that it can't be done." Ian expressed his thoughts very tactfully, "I have asked BB about this before - her answer was that it can't be done."

"After all, the Holy Grail is not a simple program. There is no way to obtain its trajectory simply through calculation."

"..."

The atmosphere suddenly became silent.

Everyone realized one thing: the dark shadow outside the Great Wall was just the beginning, and the really tricky part was still to come.

And just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

It was a soldier from Britannia, and he spoke in a very anxious tone:

"My Queen, are you there?"

Boudica was not the type to put on airs. After hearing that her soldiers were so anxious, she responded immediately:

"What's wrong? If the situation is urgent, just report it directly! I allow you to do so."

"Your Majesty, we found an injured person outside the city gate. She looks quite unwell and keeps asking to see you. What do you think..."

"This……"

Boudica subconsciously turned around and looked at Ian - he had become a person that the queen needed to consider when making decisions.

After the latter nodded in confirmation, she immediately responded to her soldiers.

"Where is she now?"

"Inside the hall, we just gave her some emergency treatment."

"I understand. I'll be there now."

A few minutes later, led by Boudica, a group of people came into the hall.

The moment Ian saw the person the soldier mentioned, he was stunned.

Because that was none other than another minister whom Nero trusted relatively more besides himself, a poisoner named Locusta!

Why is she here at this time?

"..."

Tamamonomae quickly noticed the change in her husband's expression and realized that this might be someone he had known before.

However, she did not say a word, but made preparations silently, ready to provide him with necessary cover at any time.

"You are……"

Boudica, who had no idea of ​​what Ian was thinking at the moment, directly expressed her doubts to the uninvited guest.

"I'm Locusta!" the blue-haired girl shouted excitedly, "You have surrendered to Rome before - then quickly find a way to save His Majesty!"

"Save His Majesty? Are you talking about Nero?" Boudica continued to ask.

"Yes! Who else but her is qualified to be the emperor of Rome? You know, His Majesty is..."

Halfway through her words, Lokusta stopped because she noticed Ian standing beside her.

In an instant, those eyes, which seemed to be dull because of something they had experienced, suddenly lit up again.

"So you are here - what are you still standing there for? Go back and save His Majesty!"

After hearing what Locusta said, all the girls except Tamamonomae once again focused their attention on Ian.

Locusta is not a heroic spirit, which means she is a "native" based on the singularity itself.

It is somewhat confusing that such a "native" would subconsciously ask Ian for help the moment he saw him.

but--

Before Ian could say anything, Tamamonomae at the side covered for him.

She just smiled slightly and said with a little pride:

"Master, your aura is really amazing - just by meeting you for the first time, you can make others want to ask you for help."

"I, indeed, married a very remarkable person."

Hearing this, Boudica frowned slightly.

She always felt that something was a little wrong - did something other than that happen to them last night?

however--

Tamamonomae's protection did not work as expected.

Because she didn't know that the Locusta in front of her had personally witnessed Ian and Nero's wedding.

So the moment he heard these words, the short poison master instantly exploded.

"No!" Locusta waved his arms. "How dare you marry another girl when you are married to His Majesty?"

"This is disloyalty to His Majesty!"

"that--"

Jing Ke delivered another blow at this very timely moment.

"He's not going to marry just one woman. He's going to marry three."

"Two of them have already been married, and the remaining one is a fiancée."

"What?!!!"

Lokusta was so angry that he stomped his feet.

"How could you treat Her Majesty like this? She will be very sad and upset. This is too much!"

"..."

After thinking for a while, Boudica decided to speak at this time:

"Although I don't really want to say this, based on what you just said - right now, we should not be worried about this kind of problem, but about Nero's safety, right?"

"You...didn't you encounter something with her, and then fled to Britannia in this state?"

“Hey, this——”

Boudica's words awakened Locusta.

Although this short poisoner's mental state was not very good, his loyalty to Nero was unquestionable.

She quickly recalled the reason why she had fled all the way here, and then returned to her original appearance of asking for help.

"Come back to Rome with me as soon as possible! And rescue His Majesty!"

Exactly the same speech as before.

Realizing that Ian might not be able to speak at this time, Boudica quickly took on the role of communicator.

"Don't worry, let's make things clear first, then we can decide what to do next, right?"

"Otherwise, if you just ask us to go back to Rome, we won't know what preparations to make."

Boudica's words still have some effect.

After taking several deep breaths, Lokusta calmed down temporarily.

Although she still looked a little abnormal, at least now she should understand what she wanted to express.

"A few days ago... no, more than ten days ago, Rome was on fire."

"It was a fire that burned everything it touched, and in the process, many people died and many things were burned."

"But... His Majesty is still dancing there."

"No matter how much I persuaded her, she was unwilling to leave Rome."

“The fire was burning and I had no other options but to escape from there alone.”

"You guys--" Lokusta looked at the people in front of him.

"You are also citizens of Rome, so think of a way to save His Majesty!"

"..."

Lokusta's incredible description caused most people present to fall silent.

This was obviously not something that could be accepted in a short time, but the expression on the face of this short poison master did not seem to be a disguise.

But Ian is different. With his extra memory, he can already imagine the picture described by Lokusta.

Amid the fire that swept across Rome, Nero danced alone, singing sad music, savoring the loneliness that only she could understand.

No... this can't be done.

That was not something she should endure. Wasn't this exactly what she had been trying to avoid?

Ian decided at this moment on his next course of action.

"Everyone, I believe what she said is true."

The man's eyes swept over everyone present.

"so--"

"Will you return to Rome with me?"

434. Mashu's Outdoor Reward/Tsundere Message from BB/Rescue (4k)

The words Ian said at this moment reached the ears of every girl.

Standing in different positions, they looked at the absolute leader at the moment, the man named Ian.

but--

This scene had already been predicted by the man.

He knew that after he said these words, he would definitely encounter a situation like the one he is facing now.
