[Los Saint Claudius, the Glorious Empire Singed by Virgins]
This was supposed to be a Noble Phantasm that Nero, who was just an ordinary person in this singularity and had not yet built a golden palace, could not possess.
Even after she built the infamous Domus Aurea, Nero, an ordinary tyrant who had learned some magic knowledge during his lifetime, would not have had such a powerful ability.
If it is a hero like Hercules or Artoria——King Arthur who had great strength during his lifetime, after being summoned as a servant and having a specific job, it will actually weaken their original strength. strength.
Although she clearly possesses the holy spear Lungominiad and the secret treasure Prydwen (Prydwen) that can be freely switched into a ship or a shield, Arturia Alter, a Saber, can only use the reversed Star. Holy Sword - Excalibur Morgan.
But for servants like Vlad III, the Impaler, whom Animusfia once encountered, and Count Camilla, the Blood Lady, they may not be as powerful as Heroic Spirits after death. .
Joan of Arc is the same example.
The Noble Phantasms they obtained by upgrading their achievements and rumors during their lives made them higher than ordinary people. However, in reality, Vlad III was just a monarch with vigorous and decisive methods, and Elizabeth Bathory was just an ordinary person. lady.
And Joan of Arc is just an ordinary girl with strong faith.
If she really listened to God's revelation and had the blessing of the gods, why was she burned to death in the flames?
Why would God prefer France to let Joan of Arc help France defeat Britain?
The logic in it is difficult to withstand detailed scrutiny, at least it is impossible for Animusfiya to believe it.
However, through the "belief" of the French people and most other people in the world, Joan of Arc, who became a heroic spirit, finally truly became a saint.
The personality she displayed definitely lived up to Animusfia's understanding of the word "Saint".
Returning the topic to his nominal Master (Dominus) Nero, if Nero's actions throughout his life and his notoriety were not upgraded, Nero would not be able to become a Heroic Spirit simply by relying on his own strength.
Therefore, Nero, who has not yet done many evil things and has not yet died, has been protected by the collective unconscious of Roman civilization and obtained [Emperor’s Privilege]————————
Nor can the Noble Phantasm be released.
But Nero released it exactly.
That was the "evil karma" that Nero imagined in the future, shaped by the stories Animusphia told her every night in the palace.
By listening to Animusfia's narration of the "history" he knows that has been passed down to future generations, he takes the initiative to upgrade the past that has not happened to a Noble Phantasm.
Therefore, [Los Saint Claudius] is actually composed of two Noble Phantasms——————
"The fire that burned Rome" and "the theater of gold that enchanted the heart".
After contacting the myth of the founding of Romulus and feeling the magic power fluctuations of [Rome] coming from the giant tree, Animusfia speculated that the giant tree in front of her should be the concept of the city of Rome. Creation resulting from the second reappearance.
In short, the giant tree that is constantly growing and expanding in front of you is "Rome".
In reality, Rome was still one of the most prosperous cities in the world until the modern civilized society of 2000 AD.
And Romulus' "Rome" was not only the city he built, but also the Roman Republic that later expanded to the entire Mediterranean, the Roman Empire that spanned Asia, Europe, and Africa—and as a human civilization. The cornerstone of Roman civilization.
It's strange that something like this can be destroyed.
However, Rome was not completely indestructible.
At least that was the case with the fire that burned the whole of Rome for three days and three nights.
Although Animusfia felt somewhat inappropriate for rashly placing the blame on her own emperor, but now Animusfia needed Nero to shoulder the blame. Only in that way, Only the fire of sin that can burn Rome can be used by them.
In the end, reality confirmed Animusfia's idea.
The flames that destroyed half of Rome easily ignited the previously indestructible giant tree.
Although the burning rate is much slower than Animusfia expected, their attacks are much stronger than Animusfia's before.
At least they could clearly observe that the tree trunk in front of them was damaged.
"Has it finally come? Have you foreseen the arrival of reinforcements before choosing to delay and refuse in the end? A wonderful plan. But it is too untimely. In this way, Rome (I) will have to destroy the reinforcements coming from afar. Traveler.”
After seeing Nero enter the space inside the giant tree, Romulus turned to her and said.
"Unfortunately, Chaldeas may not be considered a part of Rome in your opinion, but as the director, I have already stood on the side of Rome."
Animusfia stood up and said to Romulus.
At the same time, he also controlled the flames released by Nero to climb to the many branches in the giant tree that restricted the people of Chaldea.
During the previous battle with Iskandar and El-Melloi II, Animusfia discovered that he actually had some rights to use Nero's Noble Phantasm.
Although the emperor still called Animusfia a minister, deep down in his heart he had already regarded him as a co-ruler.
Coupled with the red cliff fire of Zhou Yu's Noble Phantasm itself that burned the battlefield, the branches that had previously bound Elizabeth and Boudica were quickly burned to ashes, and Arturia and Mashu also escaped from their predicament.
Under the deliberate guidance of Animusfia, the entire giant Roman tree was now engulfed in a sea of blazing fire.
But Romulus always had a tacit attitude towards Animusfia's actions, as if he didn't care at all.
Whether it was the giant tree that had completely ignited in flames or the Chaldeans who had escaped from trouble again, it didn't matter to Romulus.
Romulus just stared hard at Nero.
"Well...Rome (you) has become Rome, so it can only be destroyed together."
"I will not sit back and watch you destroy Rome...even if you are the ancestor who built the city of Rome!"
Nero issued a final declaration of battle to Romulus in front of him.
"It seems that Rome (you) is more aware than before."
Romulus looked at Nero who was swinging his sword towards him and sighed with satisfaction.
"God Ancestor, is it possible that you have been watching Yu before?"
“Rome (I) is aware of everything that happens on this piece of Rome (land)—Rome (you)’s confusion, Rome (you)’s loss, and Rome (your) love, Rome (I) know it all.”
In the giant tree that was burning with flames, Romulus pulled out the spear that pumped like a heart from the ground.
After hearing Romulus' words, Nero blushed slightly, but then she devoted herself to the enemy in front of her again.
"Then you, God Ancestor, should also know how determined I am to protect Rome now."
"Of course Rome (you)'s wish has been conveyed here——————But Rome (you) hasn't noticed it yet?"
Romulus inserted the spear behind himself, then spread his hands upwards.
"Why did Rome (you) try to protect Rome with the fire that destroyed Rome? --- Nero."
The moment Romulus finished speaking, countless thick trees broke out of the ground. Even if they were contaminated by the flames that combined Zhou Yu and Nero's treasures, they were not damaged at all, and Chaldea and others were killed. Everyone present climbed into the high canopy of the tree.
"My spear reaches all things (Magna Voluisse Magnum)!"
