Nova Roma

The hands were from Flavio who decided to give Hellena a surprise hug, fortunately, Hellena recognized Flavio’s hands otherwise a misfortune could have occurred.

Hellena laid her head on Flavio’s shoulder "I thought I had to look for you in the front line"

"Allowing my beloved Hellena to stain her hands with dirt and blood just so that she will see me on the front line is not something that I would do, although you will have to excuse me I have not had time to bathe and fill your earth clothes "

Hellena turned her body from Flavio’s hug and gave her husband a big kiss "You know I’ve never cared that you make me dirty" she said with a chuckle

While Flavio and Hellena flirted Amancio approached a young couple of emperors, he did not want to interrupt their moment together but had to ask what to do with the girls with butterfly wings and babies that were with the slaves because the empire prohibits child exploitation in any way.

"Emperor sorry to interrupt his happy moment with the Empress but among the slaves brought by Empress Hellena we have some families with babies, boys and girls"

Hellena looked with death eyes at Amancio who felt he could die, that look of the empress means death for having interrupted her.

Flavio noticed Hellena’s gaze on poor Amancio and could only shake his head approached her ear whispered a few words that made her blush, with this his death look took off from poor Amancio who only did his job.

Flavio looked at Amancio who understood what his emperor wanted to say with his eyes and began to walk to take the couple to the place where the children were, girls.

While walking Flavio took Hellena’s hand "You have to tell me many things but the most important how you managed to get so much workforce, I estimate that you brought about 500,000 beings from the New Tartar"

Hellena giggled as she looked at her husband who didn’t know how to guess the exact number of new members of the empire she brought in. "They weren’t 500,000 sweeties, I guess I need you to be more observant, they are more than 1,000,000 slaves and in the capital we have more than 350,000 citizens of different classes, I also brought two beautiful Cerberus puppies to the children "

Flavio started at Hellena wondering what the hell the New Tartar is and how it was created so that she could get all that, perhaps her theory that the new Tartar would be like hell is wrong, I knew it would be a place without law but what Things got lost.

When they arrived at the place Flavio could see little girls who had duck feet and beautiful faces he recognized as Lamias, he could also see little children who had scales on their faces among many others, maybe the one that surprised him most was a woman with ears of fox carrying a baby with the same characteristics.

He approached her and asked in ancient Chinese "You come from the island protected by the goddess Amaterasu"

The girl with fox ears looked at the young man with surprise and began telling her story by speaking in Chinese, for years she has suffered countless misfortunes why she cannot understand the language of outsiders after being imprisoned and sold by a merchant from her nation to some Chinese merchants when I was a teenager.

After that, she was given to another merchant as a dowry for the marriage of her son with the daughter of the other merchant, having fox ears were treated as an attraction where fortunately nothing happened to her but ended up being the victim of countless tortures

It was given countless times until a merchant of Greek origin arrived at the hands of her who took it as an offering to a temple dedicated to Hades, although Zoroastrianism was the main religion in the birth empire the Greek influence was present in some areas of the empire.

When she arrived at the temple she was stripped by the priests who put her on a stone table where all her vision darkened and she lost consciousness until she woke up in a place with the gray sky with a blue sun.

Completely lost and without clothes, she was quickly captured by the slavers who passed through the place who, after doing an exhaustive examination, told her she was pregnant, of course, she understood only a little of what they said.

Gradually it was considered a burden because no one wanted to buy it, they only took care of it because her baby could be sold at a considerable price to some rich merchant of the new Tartar, when she gave birth she had a beautiful girl she did not want to let it go this caused that slaveholders would like to snatch it.

But then a slaver came in who said "You’re lucky someone completely important has bought them all, you can keep your baby, it’s a shame that it could not be sold to Patrick Abasio but does not compare with this VIP client"

After this she was taken along with Hellena and the rest is history, with tears in her eyes she asked Flavio if he separated her from her baby, who is her only family in this strange place.

Flavio listened calmly and gave a smile to the mother with her baby "I don’t know why they want to separate you from your little girl but you, unlike the Caribs, have not damaged the empire, therefore they are under imperial protection, from today you will be a servant of my wife "

Then he looked at the lonely children and some with their mothers "I also avoid orphaned children take them to the schools of the empire, while mothers with children and family can settle near the wall and receive their husbands after work.

When the construction of the wall is finished they will all act as border guards for the defense of the empire in return they will receive land and the status of Roman citizens, who inform them all and give them an 8-hour work schedule, take three shifts and hold them in the week unlike the Caribs they have not damaged the interests of the empire "

When I just gave the orders, Flavio explained to Hellena the case of the kitsune, a Japanese Yokai who arrived on quite complicated matters to the new Tartar and everything he lived, he also told her of his decision to be one of his servants.

Hellena had no problem with her being his servant after this Flavio retired with his wife so that the two talked about different things in bed, they had a lot to talk about and a lot to do ...
