Nova Roma

Chapter 324 - Road to freedom

Flavio felt a group of different emotions, but what worried him most was the safety of his mother and his sisters who were in the city.

Hellena was also worried because Julia and the twins are her families; they both woke up from when Yuma and Erendida held their hands.

Yuma, with tears on his face, looked at his mother, "Mom will be fine, my grandmother Julia; I do not want anything to happen to my grandmother or my aunts."

Flavio, with a serious face, took Erendida, who was also sad for her grandmother and aunts and give her a little kiss on the forehead "Sons, life is sometimes cruel, but if the grandmother or her aunts suffered or died.

You can be sure that your father took revenge, once a king killed my father, his people paid the cost with the extermination.

If they touch my mother or my sisters, I will kill anything even if it means going to the ends of the world to assert my revenge. "

Hellena charged her son "Yuma holds well, Erendida and Bastet hold their father tightly.

I don’t know who the enemies are, but your father and I will make a blood road until we reach your grandmother’s residence, after putting her safe we’ll take care of rescuing the capital. "

After this, Hellena began to release her divine red energy to run towards the capital.

Flavio hugged Erendida and her daughter Bastet to start using her elemental wind energy so she could move quickly.

While Flavio was jumping to cover great distances, he could only lament for not being able to use his divine energy.

The only thing that calmed their spirits was their daughters, who felt safe being hugged by their father.

Some soldiers of the capital were evacuating people, who came out hugging the little they could rescue and their children.

Among those who were leaving the city was the Vi Opus carrying somehow many children in their arms while others were walking quite tired; they were also inquisitors carrying babies and some doctors carrying some wounded.

The Vi Opus suffered because to get to the imperial school they found some high concentrations of beasts which attacked them

Fortunately, due to the use of grenades and Carbines, they were able to make their way to the Imperial school, where they got together with a group of soldiers who were bravely defending the perimeter to prevent beasts from harming small children and students in general of the institution.

With the coordination of the special forces, they managed to create a small group made up of the most significant students, who were those who attended university and high school subjects.

These students were given some weapons such as spears and crossbows; their only function was to act as the last line of defense in case the special forces and soldiers died.

When they left the imperial school, they headed towards Decumano Avenue because it was the shortest and most direct way to get out of the city, they might face many dangers, but they have no other choice.

The Ceneric centurion headed the vanguard, a Roman of Germanic descent who made a military career in the old continent and was named as the centurion of the century of the Vi Opus in the empire.

Cenerico is a man who is not afraid of anything because he fought with countless enemies from the Picts in Britain to the desert tribes in Arabia, he wanted to accompany Flavio to this new world for the thrill of meeting new challenges.

In these two years and some months, he has faced cannibals, beasts, monsters, and plants that try to harm, but each one of them is dead, but this challenge is something different for him.

Among the students of the imperial school is his 5-year-old daughter, Cenerico is not afraid of death, but that does not mean that he does not care about his family.

While the vanguard of Cenerico advanced through the streets of the city, they found on the road a large group of Inquisitors who were bravely fighting against some beasts while defending a group of doctors and nurses who were caring for wounded and babies.

Ceneric gave the order that his avant-garde forces help the inquisitors, the battle was bloody because the beasts had to be faced melee.

This was an obstacle for most of the soldiers; only the dwarves proved effective against the beasts because their weapons could cover them with fire, so the creatures were cut while burning.

The battle lasted for a few minutes until the soldiers were finally able to end the last group of beasts, which were completely dismembered.

The inquisitor in charge of the group that led the doctors to appear next to Cenerico, and the two agreed to unite the two groups to leave the city.

After entrenched for a while to wait for the group of rescued students, they all joined in a large group that was joining your ranks to survivors who had taken refuge in some buildings.

On the way, the battles made the group move slowly, causing some casualties in the process, but in the end, they managed to reach the exit of the city where soldiers of the capital guard were making a safe road for anyone who wanted to leave.

After arriving at a safe place, the Vi Opus took a well-deserved rest, when they were a little better they would help take care of the door trying to increase the safety cord around or around.

But before they could be calm, they were astonished when they saw in the distance two figures who were running at superhuman speed.

The soldiers prepared for a possible confrontation but lowered their weapons when they saw that it was Empress Hellena and Emperor Flavio who were carrying their children.

This brought great happiness because, with the Emperor god and the Empress goddess, peace in the capital could be recovered until the legions will exterminate the beasts.

In spite of this, everyone was sad in their faces because the capital was burning, and the beasts roamed its streets; it was a defeat that will be remembered at the same level as the threat that Hannibal once represented.
