Nova Roma

One of the slavers, a fat man, approached Tacio. "Tacio, my good friend, you know why the governor summoned us in front of his government palace.

It is very rare that something like this happens, but at least it is not snowing like in the capital and slaves have less chance of getting sick.

But the weather is not hot either, I hope the governor can hurry since I want to see the body of water of the great god Poseidon that can be seen from the coast. "

Tacio began to laugh and put his hand on his friend’s shoulder. "Ticino, you must trust the governor. I can’t say much, but maybe you can see Poseidon up close."

Before the two could continue from the palace, Azalea left "I have to thank all the architects, the slave owners, and their families for coming.

I would like them to happen because I have information to tell them, their slaves will start to be taken to the coast where they will help the gods Poseidon and Tlaloc. "

Everyone was surprised, with the exception of Tacio, who already knew what the governor intended to say as they advanced to the governor’s palace.

Marco approached Tacio and squeezed his shoulder. "Tacio would like you to accompany me, Xochiel you look beautiful today, but I will take your husband for a moment. I hope you do not get angry."

Xochiel shook his head, "Don’t worry, Marco, I’ll take care of the children.

Just try to bring it back when the governor talked to us, it will be difficult for me to tell you about what the governor says with these two little children. "

Marco smiled. "Don’t worry, Xochiel will take care of bringing it back, and if I can’t do it, I’ll tell you all the information about Governor Azalea."

After this, Marco took Tacio to one of the rooms of the governor’s palace where he could see Kiya sitting with his head bowed and a woman sitting in front of Kiya.

Tacio could see that the woman had golden hair and green eyes, in her ignorance, she could not know who it was because of what she sat next to Kiya.

Hellena looked curiously at the young man who seemed ignorant of her, which was a bit odd as people had named her the Empress of Steel, and whenever someone saw her, she treated her with respect.

Marco observed Tacio’s impolite behavior and shook his head. "Sorry for the disrespect Hellena, but my son in law can be somewhat ignorant."

Hellena scratched her head "Don’t worry Marco, although it’s rare that some citizens don’t know me.

He is the father of the baby of one of my few friends, by the way, Tacio, I would like to know when you plan to marry Kiya.

Do not worry about the expenses of the wedding we the Imperial family will be in charge of covering all the expenses without mentioning that the baby will have Flavio as godfather.

He may not be the most powerful god, but he is an excellent husband, and an exemplary father, so do not doubt that he will take care of the little one or the little girl with much affection as if he were his own son. "

Tacio felt a heavyweight on his back, Marco’s comment and the Empress’s confirmation made him understand that his behavior was quite rude, but it was too late to apologize.

Not to mention that he had another problem at hand, which was that he was already married; fortunately for him, the polygamy in the Flavio government was not frowned upon unlike Augusto-driven monogamy in Rome.

Tacio raised his head and squeezed Kiya’s hand. "Empress can be sure that I will take care of Kiya with my life, the wedding I would like her to wait for a few weeks since Xochiel my wife also believes she should participate in the ceremony.

I also learned about the attack on the capital by Marco, which is why I consider that a short-term wedding would be a bad idea. "

Helena’s face showed some sadness, but it was only for a few seconds before she changed to a smile. "I agree with you, Tacio.

But you must remember that having more than one wife is not something simple; you have to be patient with your children, but even more important is never to fail your wives.

Remember that Kiya is considered part of the Imperial family, so I hope you can take care of her until death.

Don’t worry, we will always be taking care of them.

But changing the subject a bit, I want you to keep the issue of the attack in the capital secret, tomorrow Azalea will give a speech.

There were too many dead and my stepfather Lucio was seriously injured, as soon as the business of the gods I will oversee the construction that Poseidon and Tlaloc are doing.

Soon my mother Artemis will also arrive to help me supervise the work that Hercules, Apollo, and Susanoo will do later.

Now you are free to retire, Tacio, and you can take Kiya as I have to talk to Marco about some things. "

Tacio, with some fear, nodded and withdrew from the place while holding Kiya’s hand.

"What do you think of the Arisai."

From one of the shadows in the room came a beautiful woman with signs of pregnancy, "He was nervous to the point of wanting to urinate, but his words were honest.

I think it’s a good prospect for your daughter Marcó, but you always have the last word. "

Marco sighed and sat down in a chair. "I really wanted him to say something stupid, so I could have a reason to separate him from my daughter, but I see that he is a responsible man.

Thanks for the help, Hellena, and Arisai, I had a lot of doubts, but at least I’m a little calmer. "

Hellena smiled. "Don’t worry about that, Marco.

We just have to wait for Azalea to go to the coast, we have to talk with Poseidon and Tlaloc to help in everything they need to build the road to the city of Terminus Magna (Havana).

From where they will begin with the creation of the islands to join Insulae Canibalium with the Patria peninsula. "
