Recommended votes are 4,000 for an update, 200 for a monthly ticket, 10,000 for a reward, and 200 for a blade.
I copied the reward directly from the book next door, and it is temporarily capped at 20 updates.
I'll wait until I have some stock before offering another reward. I'll never change the two regular updates of 2,000 words each, and I promise two older books of over a million words and one of over 6 million words.
Usually, after a book reaches the last one or two million words, no one reads it anymore, and there's no need to worry about the later stages. As long as the data isn't so bad that I can't make a living, I'll keep writing.
The old books include a book with a revival of spiritual energy and a book of fantasy world literature. If you are interested, you can take a look. Send a link to the old account below
Chapter 58: Night: You know, slave trader: I'm shaking with cold, and I don't want to understand at all
Aurelia was shaking with anger!
She couldn't believe that the target of this assassination was her young son, Caesar.
Although she had also wanted Caesar to see blood, and even after he had come of age, she had asked him to fight real gladiators and kill stronger enemies to temper himself.
But that was under the absolute premise of ensuring Caesar's safety, not putting him in such a crisis where his life could be lost at any time.
A flash of murderous intent and an uncontrollable surge of anger flashed in Aurelia's eyes. Some hands had reached too far, and they should be chopped off!
Without the protection of someone inside Rome, these Italian soldiers, who should have become slaves, could in no way threaten the safety of their mother and son.
The wrath (retribution) of a family that has offended the gods! I wonder if that person in the shadows is ready?
Investigate! This matter must be investigated thoroughly.
After completely calming down, Aurelia began to settle the score. The more she looked at her attendants, the angrier she became: "Worthless, worthless, worthless, a bunch of worthless people! If it weren't for meeting a truly powerful warrior today, Caesar and I would have died countless times already thanks to you idiots."
This anger was not only because she had raised her bodyguards for so long, but also because they were unable to protect her life. She also felt a little scared. It seemed that she really should speed up the training process to improve Caesar's actual combat abilities.
Today was just lucky. What if she was not there? Or what if she was not there the next time there was an assassination attempt? Caesar must have sufficient counterattack capabilities.
Not to mention killing all the assassins who came, but at least he should have the ability to escape from the assassins' encirclement.
However, if Caesar could also have the terrifying combat capabilities of Ye, Aurelia really felt completely at ease.
In that case, the next time she should worry not about Caesar, but about Caesar exerting too much force and not being able to leave any survivors.
Thinking about this, Aurelia's heart stopped for a moment, and she began to think about Ye.
She wondered if it was possible for Caesar to worship him as a master and learn combat skills from him.
This mother, who was determined to cultivate Caesar in all aspects and was also very willing to spend money, the more she thought about this idea, the more she was moved.
On the other hand, it can be said that she thought the same thing as her mother.
At the same time, Caesar, who had already realized his own shortcomings in this battle, was very interested in Ye's powerful swordsmanship and physical training skills, and had the heart to recruit him.
That figure, which was like a hero of ancient Greece in the world, made Caesar very yearn.
He had been fond of Greek culture since childhood. While studying rhetoric, history, philosophy and other cultural subjects to prepare for a future in politics, he also did not forget to exercise, and trained himself in excellent horsemanship and swordsmanship.
Caesar, who originally thought his combat effectiveness was quite good, discovered in actual combat that reality was completely different from his ideals.
Caesar, who desperately wanted a good practical teacher, was understandably highly interested in Ye at this time. This studious boy would never let go of any good opportunity to grow.
And soon, before Caesar Jr. could say anything,
Aurelia, who had never forgotten about Night, looked at Night after scolding the servants for a while.
She expressed her gratitude to Night, asked for his name, and then invited the Night Queen to visit the Julius clan, where she would certainly be treated with hospitality.
At the same time, she would tell Caesar's uncle, Lucius Caesar, about this matter. (Family card)
The entire Julius family will remember Night's friendship, and in the future, whenever they encounter any trouble in Rome, they can simply use the Julius family name.
Aurelia also specially gave Night a badge that symbolized the Julius family emblem.
Night did not refuse, and accepted it all with a smile.
He was very satisfied with this gain, which was much more practical and faster than the reward Haruman received.
Not to mention the badge that symbolizes the prestige of the Julius family. From now on, as long as Ye does not rely on the name of the Julius family and get into trouble everywhere...
This badge can allow him to walk sideways in front of most ordinary people in Rome.
Not to mention Aurelia, Keta will also tell this to Caesar's uncle, Lucius Caesar.
This man, who has been elected consul of Rome, has enormous power among the upper classes of Rome. Compared to young Caesar, who has yet to grow up, this Caesar is now an unadulterated golden thigh.
With his care, it will be much easier for the Night Empress to enter the upper class of Rome if she wants to.
It seems that the Julius family still values Caesar as the only male heir.
After Ye promised to visit the Julius family in a few days, Aurelia and little Caesar couldn't help but smile, showing that they were looking forward to his arrival.
Afterwards, Aurelia, who was anxious to deal with the various issues behind this assassination, took Caesar back the same way they had come, without buying any slaves.
This made many slave traders feel a bit disappointed, as they had lost a big customer.
Damn Italian slaves! If it weren't for these Italians, perhaps the lady would have taken a fancy to the slaves in their possession? Even if she didn't, it would still be good to get close to such a big shot and become familiar with her.
Thinking of Aurelia's beautiful appearance and devilishly seductive figure, these slave traders became a little dry-mouthed. Even if they couldn't do business, they would be more than happy to spend some time with this noblewoman.
After Aurelia and the others had left for good, Ye returned to the slave trader with whom he had done business before and continued the transaction.
Having witnessed Ye's terrifying power with his own eyes, the slave trader had become even more subservient and awed. With a smile on his face, he reported the prices after settling all the slaves Ye wanted.
This time, the slave trader even gave Ye a greater discount, 19 oris for a Spartan and 13 oris for a Thracian, both cheaper by 1 to 2 oris.
And the final price for an Italian was even cheaper, directly 7 gold coins.
After all the slaves were settled, Ye, who had originally not wanted to pay but could not think of a way to do so without alerting the Senate, was faced with the still exorbitant price of several hundred oris.
At this moment, a thought occurred to him, and he suddenly took out the badge that Aurelia had given him not long ago.
Night: "This thing... you know what it is, right?
I want all the slaves, but I don't want to pay that much auris."
You know...! He gave a wink.
Night casually flicked the badge with his thumb, and it fell and then bounced back up.
His indifferent attitude didn't say much, but it seemed to say everything.
Suddenly, the slave trader was dumbfounded.
Huh? ! Is that how it works? No, he definitely didn't want to understand!
Chapter 59 Who dares to ask a noble for money? Absolute power equals absolute justice
He was shaking with cold fear! Although he wanted to ignore the badge, the slave trader didn't have the courage to do so.
In the end, Ye said, "The price you're asking is too high. Let me re-price it for you.
Five oris for an Italian, six oris for a Thracian, and eight oris for a Spartan."
With each word, the slave trader's heart trembled.
Finally, with a warm smile, Night said, "I won't take your slaves for free, so recalculate the price according to this.
If you have any problems, go and discuss it with the Julius family. If you are not satisfied with the price, you can just mention my name and ask the Julius family for the difference.
Slave trader: ...#¥%¥...!
Dare he ask for it? Go and ask the Julius family for money? Does he want to die?
Even though the servants of the Julius family performed so poorly during the assassination attempt by the Italians today, if the slave trader dares to go to the Julius family, the few servants Aurelia brought before will be able to kill him.
In Rome, there are only two kinds of people—the aristocracy and ordinary Roman citizens.
And the latter may complete the transformation from a civilian to a slave at any time.
Absolute power means absolute justice, and even Roman law sided with the nobles.
In the end, in the slave trader's expression, which was even more unsightly than crying...
At night, he left with his slaves, contentedly, for less than half the market price. At this time, whether it was the well-trained Thracians and Italians that Ye had bought, or the initially unruly Spartans...they were all incredibly obedient.
They had all witnessed their master's divine might that day.
Even the Spartans had half-recognized their new master, driven by a desire to emulate him.
Halfway there, Ye found the chains on the three Spartan slaves to be a hindrance to movement and slowed their progress, so he threw the keys to one of the Spartans.
Ye: "Unchain them. A warrior needs not carry such encumbrances. All he needs to carry is his armor and shield."
"...! You...you want to unchain us? Aren't you afraid that we will take this opportunity to escape, or even kill you in resistance?" The Spartan who received the key asked hesitantly with a slightly submissive tone.
Ye: "If you think you can do it, go ahead and try. I look forward to your challenge..."
Night's mouth curled into a faint smile, and it was only when they saw that confident, powerful smile that the three Spartans remembered how fierce and fast their new master had been in battle.
The thought of fighting such a monster made even the Spartans, who had grown up fighting beasts and cultivating a sense of combat, feel that they had no chance of winning. The one who asked this question was indeed very stupid.
