But that smile was already mixed with a hint of regret.

"I thought so."

"Because I thought you wouldn't be able to accept my leaving." The man walked to Beast Nero and apologized, "So I didn't tell you anything."

“But it shouldn’t be like this.”

"You told me everything about yourself, and I hid everything from you. What a jerk."

"so--"

"Do I still have a chance now?"

Ian bent down and picked up Beast Nero, allowing her to lie in his arms. Looking at the body that was eroded by the Holy Grail, his tone began to become a little sad.

"Can I let the teacher love you again?"

"I...actually, I really like Nero."

"..."

In an instant, the color of Beast Nero's eyes began to change.

The red color that symbolizes decadence was gradually replaced by pure green, and eventually even the scales on the body began to disappear.

"Okay."

"You said it yourself, teacher - let's start with kissing."

Nero raised his head and met his teacher's lips.

The next second, flames surrounded the two of them, leaving only the kissing silhouettes twisting vaguely in the fire.

The remaining warmth dissipated.

Ian stood up, with a shy emperor in his arms.

The man's lips trembled slightly at this moment, and then the voice from the bottom of his heart came out.

"Nero, welcome back to Rome."

"Hmm~ Teacher, are you here because you are thinking about Yu's beauty?"

"..."

"If it's not this, then it must be Yu's body that made the teacher fall, right?"

"..."

"Neither? Um! I know, it must be because of my singing~"

"..."

"What on earth is this!"

Nero took Ian's arm, puffed up his cheeks like a little pufferfish, and asked rather unhappily.

"Teacher, I have been asking you for so long, and you are not even willing to tell me the answer that appears here?"

"But I already said that?"

Ian looked at his student helplessly.

"I came to rescue you and put a stop to this - Nero, did you know that Rome almost disappeared?"

"..."

Hearing this, Nero slowly shifted his gaze away from Ian and looked towards the streets of the former imperial capital.

The scene that came into her eyes made the young emperor start to feel sad. Her eyes, which used to be full of liveliness, now became blurred because of the regret in her heart.

"What on earth is Yu doing?"

"Rome...will be destroyed by my own hands."

Looking at Nero blaming himself, Ian felt his heart tighten.

What he couldn't stand the most was her tone at this moment.

He hugged the girl tenderly and comforted her softly: "It's okay, this is a singularity - everything will return to normal."

"Really?" Nero leaned against the man's chest and listened to his heartbeat. "But I'm afraid I can't forget all this."

"Then don't forget it."

Ian's hand gently stroked Nero's soft hair.

“People always need some mistakes to remind themselves.”

"Well... Teacher, you are right."

While Ian and Nero were being affectionate, Boudica, who had recovered, walked towards them.

She looked at the two people snuggling together, her eyes were lost at first, but soon became a little gentler.

She smiled and said:

“That’s great.”

"Seneca, you are worthy of me. You really saved Nero."

"..."

Hearing this, Nero looked at Boudica with great vigilance - she had not forgotten that this woman had once kissed her favorite teacher on the streets of Rome.

The girl grabbed Ian's arm like a puppy guarding its food, not wanting to give him any chance to relax.

The man certainly knew what Nero was thinking at the moment, and he quickly spoke:

"Nero, don't be like this, this time it's all thanks to Boudica."

"Thanks to her?" Nero looked up at his teacher, his expression somewhat confused. "What does this mean?"

"See it?"

Ian pointed to the chariot parked on the burned-out street not far away.

"This time, it was Boudica who risked her life to send me to you."

"If it weren't for her, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to reach you now."

"This……"

Nero glanced at Ian, then at Boudica, his expression gradually changing from struggle to hesitation.

She probably realized that her behavior was inappropriate.

Queen Britannia, who had vowed to protect their relationship, saw this scene and responded with a smile.

"Nothing."

"Seneca is so powerful, even without my presence, he would definitely find another way to get to you."

"Seneca, am I right?"

"..."

Before the man could open his mouth to respond to Boudica's emotionally intelligent explanation, Nero's answer caught her off guard.

"Thank you, Boudica."

"Eh?"

The Queen of Britannia could hardly believe what she heard.

The high and mighty young emperor whom he considered a role model actually thanked him?

"What's that expression on your face?" Nero muttered.

"Does my thanks make you so uncomfortable?"

"That's not what I meant..." Boudica quickly denied this statement, "I just didn't expect that one day I would be able to hear your thanks."

"Hmm?"

Now it was Nero's turn to be confused.

She held onto Ian's arm and refused to let go, looking at the much taller man beside her.

"Teacher, is my thanks so valuable?"

"You just realized this?" Ian replied with a smile, "So you should express your inner gratitude to others more often. They will definitely feel your charm too."

The man's words precisely touched upon Nero's little vanity.

She began to feel a little proud: "Of course, I am the emperor of Rome, so my charm is naturally at the highest level!"

"Oh, yes."

Boudica smiled and nodded.

"Isn't this... pretty good?" she thought to herself.

The originally slightly awkward atmosphere was resolved by everyone singing in unison.

Nero also began to ask other questions in his mind.

“Hmm—”

"What was that gun that the teacher used before?"

“Although I can’t control my body, I can still feel that it is a very powerful weapon.”

"And...it's very familiar!"

"Yes," Boudica agreed. "Seneca, what kind of weapon is that? I haven't seen you use it before - is it a killer move specially prepared for this operation?"

"..."

Faced with the doubts of Nero and Boudica, Ian did not intend to hide anything.

He quickly told them exactly what had happened when he heard a voice claiming to be Romulus.

After hearing all this, Nero became excited instantly.

"Teacher, are you serious?!"

"You...really heard his voice?!"

"Of course." Ian nodded, "Nero, you know there's no need for me to lie to you about this."

"However, judging from your reaction, he seems to be a very powerful person?"

"Hmm!"

Nero grabbed Ian's arm tightly, looking as if he was afraid that Ian couldn't hear what he was going to say next.

"This is the first emperor of Rome, my ancestor!"

"what?"

Ian finally understood everything now.

All the familiarity comes from the true identity of Romulus - this is the true incarnation of Rome!

No wonder... Nero is called "my son".

"It's over!" Nero seemed a little devastated. "If I turn Rome into this in front of him, I will definitely be expelled from my imperial home!"

"Teacher, what should I do?"

"..."

Ian was silent for a moment, then laughed.

"Nero, if that's the case, I think the reason he showed up might not be because he wanted to blame you, but because he recognized you."

Nero has always believed in Ian's words.

This is true even if it contradicts one's own cognition.

"Teacher, what do you mean?"

"Nero, this is the situation."
