"...Who exactly are you?"
Seneca, who recovered from his brief absence, raised his head again and asked Animusfia.
Although the betrayal of the Roman Senate was difficult to accept, it was reasonable.
As one of the senators, Seneca naturally knew what the Senate had done since the assassination of Caesar.
Even if the Senate intended to assassinate Nero again, it is not a fantasy.
If the current Führer had been someone else, Seneca might have been involved.
But if the target of the assassination was Nero...Seneca didn't know what to do.
Seneca didn't know whether to side with Nero, whom he had taught for more than ten years and whom he already regarded as his daughter, or with the republican tradition of the Senate.
If such a day comes, Seneca may secretly acquiesce to the Senate and commit suicide in penitence after everything is over.
But compared to the conspiracy of the Senate, the identity of Animusfia in front of him is more doubtful.
Seneca may not be able to protect Nero from the intrigues of the Senate, but he will certainly do his best to protect her from outside threats.
This is why Seneca hurried back to the Senate after hearing that a mysterious magician suddenly appeared next to Nero.
Therefore, that's why he wanted to question Animusfia's identity.
Nero on the side also listened curiously to Animusfia's answer.
Although she had vaguely concluded a contract with Animusfia, and could vaguely feel the connection between the two, she still had no idea who Animusfia was.
"Well, this question is difficult to answer at the moment, Mr. Elder. But you just need to know that I come from the future."
"future?"
Seneca and Nero asked at the same time.
Animusfia nodded in disbelief.
"Yes, the future, I come from the future about two thousand years later."
"Two thousand years from now?"
Seneca looked at Animusfia suspiciously.
"How are you going to prove it?"
"I am now His Majesty's Servus, and Your Majesty is my Master. Your Majesty should know clearly whether I am lying."
Nero nodded and said:
"Hmm... I really don't think the governor is lying."
Animusfia shrugged at Seneca.
"If you still don't believe it, I have no other choice. This is your freedom, Mr. Elder."
"Huh... I'll just believe your words."
Nowadays, Seneca no longer firmly denies something.
Even the dead heads of state could be resurrected and even formed a "United Empire" to attack Rome. Now it is not impossible to get help from people from the future.
"Wait a minute, since Governor you are from the future, what will be the final outcome of the war between Rome and the [United Empire]?"
"This is exactly why I came to this era, Your Majesty. Do you think the emergence of the [United Empire] and everything that has happened recently are reasonable?"
"Of course not..."
Nero's words stopped abruptly, and she continued as if she realized something.
"Are you saying that everything that happens now is not in the original history?"
"That's right, Your Majesty."
"Then if things continue like this, what will happen to Rome...Rome? Will Rome perish?"
Animusfia snapped his fingers, and visible magic power continued to fluctuate and emit from his fingertips like radio waves.
Finally, a dynamic image was formed under his manipulation.
It was the earth in the twenty-first century, a prosperous scene.
Then in an instant, a huge circle of light appeared over the earth, turning all the good and the ugly into ashes.
"The same situation not only occurs in Rome now, but also occurs in different corners of various eras in history. We call it [singularity]. The final outcome is not just the destruction of Rome, but the extinction of all mankind."
Animusfia clenched her fist gently, and the image composed of magic power slowly dissipated.
Both Seneca and Nero were shocked by the scene in the image.
"[Chaldeas] is the human security organization established by humans in the 21st century to avoid this kind of situation, and I am the third director of Chaldea."
"Where did the rest of the Chaldeans go?"
Seneca asked Animusfia.
Facing Seneca's doubts, Animusfia paused and then said:
"This is an accident. Before I appeared in this era with Chaldea as a normal person, His Majesty Nero took the lead in summoning me as a pseudo-server. But there is no need to worry, the other members of Chaldea also Should be coming to Rome soon."
"Hmm...I probably understand the governor's situation. So, what is Yu's rule like in real history? What kind of Augustus is Yu?"
Nero asked Animusfia curiously.
Animusfia's face showed some hesitation.
"What's wrong, Governor? Can't I tell Yu about the future, otherwise it will change the future?"
"No...it's okay to tell you. Your Majesty, you can think that you are in a dream now. After the singularity is repaired, everything will return to its original state. [United Empire] or the ruined palace No matter what, even my own arrival will be as if it never happened.”
"Never happened?"
"Well, that's what I'm here for, to make everything that shouldn't happen never happen."
"Is it just like a dream..."
Nero whispered.
"Everything that has happened in recent days must be like a nightmare to Your Majesty. While facing the current situation, I hope from the bottom of my heart every day that everything is just a dream."
"Hmm..."
"Then please feel free to regard all this as a fleeting nightmare. Please also believe that I will wake you up from your dream. When you finally wake up, what will happen now? It’s like a forgotten dream, like it never happened.”
Animusfia said to Nero with a smile.
"Then why did you look hesitant just now?"
"...I'm just hesitating whether to tell you the truth."
"..."
"Governor, how did Yu end up in his original history?"
After silence, Nero spoke word by word.
"... He misjudged the situation in the face of the rebellion. After he evacuated Rome, he was declared treason by the Senate, and his title of Augustus was revoked. He eventually committed suicide."
Animusfia took a few steps back, and finally bowed and said.
"What kind of person is he?"
"A famous tyrant."
"That's really sad... Aren't you worried that Yu will change history after knowing this?"
Animusfia shook her head.
"After everything is over, you won't remember me, let alone the words I said."
"Then why did you tell me this?"
Nero asked back to Animusfia.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I simply think that it is much better to tell you the truth than to make up a false lie. And staying silent at this time is no different from telling the truth."
...
"What if Yu Zhen still remembers it?"
"Actually, history is not something that can be changed easily. After you change history, I may not appear here again. And if I did not appear here, Your Majesty, you will no longer know everything."
