Nova Roma

Chapter 42 - New Horizons

Derek was thrilled with the news because this meant the birth of a completely new species. I ask Italivi if she was willing to have doctors who registered for her pregnancy period, nothing was going to miss her and her family.

Hellena was a bit upset but Derek calmed her down after I explained that Cucaracha had to make his family, anyway they have more than 200 unicorns which will leave a lot of offspring for their children and grandchildren, with this Hellena accepted that cockroach had a family but I do not hesitate to approach cockroach and he said

"Look unicorn if you hurt Italivi or little Xochitl castrate you, you heard me as of today you have to take care of them since they are your family, do not worry about your living expenses yours and those of your family are covered for life consider it my cockroach’s gift "

The cockroach had tears in his eyes knew that this strange owner has always cared for him in his way, as for the threat he swore to himself never to cheat Italivi did not want to be castrated and alone.

After reaching an agreement Italivi asked Flavio what he planned to do in the barn with Hellena, The two blushed and hellena spoke

"Nothing, we just wanted to check if the barn was in good condition, really sweety"

"If that same thing, I thought to put some materials to isolate more than the strong temperatures, we should not allow little Xochitl to suffer a heat stroke or to an Italivi now that she is pregnant"

Cucaracha and Italivi knew that they were both lying but did not want to delve into the subject, even the emperor and the empress have their intimate secrets.

The days passed and Flavio began to review with Marco the next conquest, the Mayan riviera in the future were founded cities like Tulum or Xcaret important points of the Mayan civilization but at this time there is no majestic city built maybe settlements like Xicalango, but it does not change the fact that it has a very important value.

It is the gateway to the conquest of Central America until the Darién where a wall of more than 160 km will be built to separate the north from the south and avoid attacks by tribals or that the animals arrive would be a disgrace if the horse He will arrive in South America and the natives domesticated him. Flavio knows that it will take time to conquer America enough to allow him to create something like Mongolians in the south.

That is why a wall is better than a lament that leads us to a bloody war for the domination of South America, which will take too many lives and can be a war that will cost the new empire its life.

"Marco, I hope you can start with the conquest of the Mayan people on the coast and the island of Cozumel of 647km², a port fortress so that the municipal capital of the cities of the coast can be developed there"

He pointed Derek on the map to Cozumel Island and then pointed to Cancún

"The recently conquered city of Cancun will support you, I recommend that you start on the island of Cozumel, it should currently have some tribes of Caribs in it, unlike the Mayans you have permission to do what is necessary to conquer them"

Marco was surprised by what Derek said. "Excuse your majesty, but why allow them to be killed?"

Derek smiled "Because when you see what they do it will depend entirely on you what happens, not all the tribes of America are Civilized or Peaceful, far north the survival of the tribes is the order of the day, therefore, they are peoples that can be peaceful or very aggressive, meanwhile in the south-east of South America the cannibalism and the strongest tribe is the law without mentioning that the jungle covers the whole place, in the southwest there are people like the Mayans, therefore, there is not much problem "

Marco was surprised by what Dereck said about the people and now he understands why he has to take a hard line. He is a little afraid of the Caribs but he faced Desert Tribes and Cantabrios does not believe that they can be compared in any way. He does not plan to take risks. So much took veteran legionaries who fought in the campaign of July the son of Augustus against Britannia and the Picts is better to be prepared for any contingency.

While Flavio and Marco considered the following conquests, Hellena was taking care of her two small babies while she was with Italivi watching as Cucaracha and Xochitl ran playing between them.

"Sorry to ask Empress Hellena but how can you stay so calm taking care of the two little ones that fly through the air like birds"

Hellena looked at her friend "Do not tell me, empress, just tell me Hellena, we know each other from a while ago and answering your question is very simple, I love my husband and much more our children because they are the fruit of our love, in As for the calm I have never cared neither for Flavio, this because we both want our children "

Italvil blushed a bit for what he was going to say "Sorry for what I’m going to ask Hellena but how can you prevent your little ones from interrupting you in intimacy, We sometimes get scared because little Xochitl wants to come in when we’re in our intimate moment "

Hellena also blushed because of what her friend said "In our case it’s very simple our little ones are taken care of by Lilith our maid, although many times we have to go far away to avoid being interrupted, I recommend that you let little Xochitl get tired in the mornings and afternoons so that he does not wake up, I will also inform the architect Marco to modify the barn so that they have more privacy "

The conversation between women lasted all day, even Cucaracha and Xochitl waited for them to finish talking ...
