Chapter 10 The Crown Princess (Part 2)

Finally, the tent opened, Adiana came out, wearing his mother Monimei's little crown! The beautiful combed chestnut hair contrasted with the magnificence of the crown, but the crown further reflected her elegance and nobleness. Her slender neck, slightly raised forehead and small nose tip. She was not a wild cat in Nasa's mouth at all, but a beautiful and arrogant swan. "No wonder she kept talking about the crown and learned sewing from me. It turned out to be for this to repair the broken belt, but how did she know that the crown was hidden by Hebrida in Batitas's tent - yes, yes, it was indeed the safest to hide the precious treasure under a mattress of a useless man. Hebrida could think of this, Adiana could guess it." Karabis sighed in his heart.

"How, the identity of a princess can only be revealed by the crown. The crown will never choose the head of a lowly person." Adiana said word by word to everyone present, then pointed to the crown with her slender fingers and said, "This is my crown." Then she raised her other hand and a bloody axe in her hand, "This is my scepter."

"Damn...Batitas!" Safano then reacted and rushed into the tent with Demitrius. Baatitas's body was cut by a sharp axe, and even the bed beneath him was cut. His whole body fell into the cracks on the two sides of the broken bedside, showing a terrifying sitting position, with blood-stained rags flying all over the place.

"This dirty Roman soldier dared to defile my mother's body in the palace of Karabi. I had just executed him with a scepter. This military guardian named Claudi, I don't think you will have any dissatisfaction, right?" Adianna explained calmly.

Claudi laughed dryly and said, "Everything must be decided until the coach arrives. I have sent someone to inform you." Then he patted Hebrida on the shoulder on the side and asked, "I'm very curious that this level of crown should be handed over to the Dushu Office during the Battle of the Karabi Palace. Why does it appear here now?"

"Please help me with beautiful words, Your Excellency. I really don't know who was hiding there!" Hebrida's voice trembled a little.

"Everything must be decided until the coach arrives." Claudi smiled and copied the sentence.

After a while, Lukulas came here in a white purple robe with a consul's face and surrounded by the escort holding a "fascist" stick. Obviously, he was in a good mood, but what made Hebrida dared to be terrified was that Murila and Utarius followed him with a gloomy face, full of murderous intent. Obviously, one was deceived by him and the other was tied to the tree and blown by him all night. He was in a mood that was absolutely not good.

When Lukulas came, Claudi immediately stepped forward and expressed his welcome, but Lukulas responded coldly, saluted Nesa and Adiana, and then spoke fluently in Greek, saying, "I have learned very much from Telanion about the noble Mitra family. I believe that both of you are true - plus the Queen, your crown that is enough to show your identity is absolutely unique. I announce that from now on, you two are guests of the Legion and enjoy the treatment of VIP."

"Thank you very much for your kindness!" Nesa made a hurried and soft voice. She wanted to win the favor of the Roman commander in front of Adiana. This was a habit.

"It's also a prisoner and hostage of the Legion, isn't it?" Adianna responded.

Lukulas smiled kindly and said, "The army has its rules, I hope the Queen of the King can understand."

"I would rather let this meaningless war be understood by the world. Now my father has lost his country and army. He is just a poor old man living in his son-in-law's country. Why is the Governor still unwilling to put aside this dispute and give peace to the people of both countries?"

Just as Nesa was about to scold Adiana's rudeness, Luculas replied frankly: "Yes, I need this war to continue, because when I return to Rome in three years, I will be filled with honor to win the cheers of the Senate and the citizens in the great triumph."

"But you know, the humiliating years I spent in your army before was not meaningless. Through observation, I am sure that the centurion and soldiers under your subordinates are not interested in your dreams." Adianna was still unwilling to give up.

Lukulas looked around and was full of his generals and soldiers, and then whispered to Adiana quickly: "A true nobleman will not ask about the dreams of the lower classes." Then he ordered loudly: "Today is a good day. We not only defeated the Armenian army, but also won two noble guests. The following is the banquet and hospitality time - God bless Rome!"

Everyone present drew their swords and shouted, "God bless Rome!"

After saying that, Lukuras led Adianna and Nesa away with great grace. Claudi also squeezed his eyes at Hebrida and followed Murira and others to the generals.

However, Utarius stood there with a blue face, and several "fascist" entourages also stayed, standing beside the senior centurion.

"Your merits cannot offset your sins. You're over, you're over, Hebrida, you veteran**, I've said before, you'll be done!" Utaris said viciously and excitedly, holding up the silver ring at Hebrida. "You dare to dislike this sign representing the position of the legion, and even deceive your superiors with a horn. General Murila issued a resolution on punishment, beating thirty military sticks, working naked for three days of coolies, stripping the position of centurion, and demoting to auxiliary soldier."

Highbreda didn't say a word. What he was really worried about now was that if Adiana exposed his private crown at the banquet, he would be cut off in front of all the 100s in the Legion, or smashed to death!

Two fascist entourages pressed Hebrida down and knelt down. Safano, Aminius and other subordinates formed a circle with helpless expressions. The other two entourages stepped forward, stripped Hebrida's armor, pulled off the identity-symbolizing ornaments on his chest, and threw them on the soil. Then these things were stepped on by the entourage holding the slings. The four men pulled out one from the slings and hit Hebrida's back, one by one, with the sound of flesh being sucked.

"One more!" When Utarius saw the wooden stick being broken, he ordered, "One more... Now you are not a centurion, you are free, and you can rob the wholeheartedly. Isn't this exactly what you want!"

But Highbrida is really a tough guy, her face is full of sweat and she doesn't say anything.

"Slave, get out of here. You are not qualified to see the Roman soldiers be punished." When Aminius saw that Karabis and other camp slaves were also watching, he pushed Karabis back and threatened.

"This time it's a pill, and next time I hope to see you punished with the axe inside the pill!" This was what Karabis heard, Utaris said.

Then Utaris pushed the crowd away and saw Karabis. He actually pounded his chest affectionately and said, "Karbis, you are a good and capable slave, but you don't have to follow the betrayal dog in the future, follow me." After that, he left!
Chapter completed!
