Flavio left with Felix from the office and addressed Apollo who was waiting outside the place, there was no need to speak Apollo simply guided Flavio and Felix to the exit.

Felix was surprised when he used the elevator, Flavio noticed his son’s behavior and did not hesitate to answer his questions "This is an elevator, it allows you to go up and down without having to walk down the stairs.

It is a very basic technology but quite ahead of the time, I will show you some books so you can learn.

You cannot make an act of revenge if you do not understand the laws that govern the world, launching yourself without a plan or knowing your enemy will only cause you to lose. "

Felix nodded at his father’s words, the best that no one knew was weak and could not simply face an enemy he did not understand.

When the elevator arrived at the Felix subway station he was surprised by the subway both the colors and the material with which it was made.

During the course he devoted himself to asking Flavio questions waiting for him to answer all his questions, Flavio dedicated himself to explaining how electricity works and how the subway can move over the railways.

"Father why if this technology exists it is still not used anywhere, Rome could benefit from it"

Flavio listened to the words of his son and replied "Because this technology is an illusion, it only exists in the dimension of the gods, anything that is taken out of here and taken to our dimension of transformed into stone or ashes.

We will be able to imitate this technology in our dimension in many years, it will be a slow process but once we achieve it nobody can fight against us on equal terms.

What you can see is just a look at how the empire will look in some future, but whatever happens, we have to take care of protecting the present to guarantee our future. "

Felix nodded silently as he looked out the subway window when they finally left, they entered the Apollo temple where they returned to Origin Civitatem.

When Felix opened his eyes after leaving the temple of Apollo, he was surprised to see magnificent buildings but did not understand why there was a large amount of ash falling from the sky.

Flavio realized Felix’s doubts "As you heard at the meeting the Andean gods were killed by the cursed jungle, this caused a great tremor to be felt and the volcanoes erupted.

From the reports I could read before leaving all the volcanoes erupted, this is a problem and a blessing, it is a problem because the ash will contaminate the aquifers and can cause respiratory problems.

It is a blessing because none of the supervolcanoes erupted, there are 2 supervolcanoes in North America, the first is Yellowstone and the other is located in central Mesoamerica. "

Felix looked at his father and swallowed "How dangerous a supervolcano is"

Flavio smiled and looked at his son. "The last time a supervolcano exploded, only a few thousand people survived, temperatures dropped to minus 50 degrees thanks to the ice age created by the amount of ash that was in the atmosphere.

That’s why we were lucky, if one of those volcanoes erupts it will be the end for everyone, but first of all, you can’t leave without protection. "

Flavio took off his shirt and broke it to create 2 handkerchiefs, one of them used it to cover Felix’s face and the other used it to cover his face, from his bags he took out protective glasses and handed them to Felix.

Felix accepted but blushed when he saw his father shirtless, Flavio noticed this but decided not to give it any importance

"Ash is a problem, wear glasses and a mask until we reach the palace"

After this Flavio mounted his horse with his son and rode to the palace, thanks to the protection measures in the streets there were only soldiers and policemen taking care of the safety of the city.

There were also people with protective glasses and handkerchiefs collecting ashes in sacks when Felix looked at that, he asked: "Why are they collecting ashes?"

"Ash can be used in construction as it is the main cement material, also depending on its ph it can be used as a fertilizer.

That is why it is being collected in sacks, not to mention that if it is left uncleaned it can cause problems to the drainage of the city because it can create blockages inside it and that would cause flooding in some future.

The road after that little talk was quite calm, Felix was surprised by the city he was visiting, his mother always told him that his father would travel to bring the glory of the Roman Empire to a wild continent.

Despite having some hate for why he abandoned his mother he has to admit that his father is fulfilling his promise to bring the glory of the empire to this wild land, which makes him happy as Roman and makes him proud of his father.

When they arrived at the Felix palace, he was surprised by the beautiful architecture they used for the construction and the large size of the building, the Praetorian soldiers were surprised to see the shirtless emperor and worried that he had been attacked.

They approached quickly to ask the emperor about his condition, but they were surprised to see a boy with reddish-golden hair hugging the emperor, Flavio noticed the doubtful look of the Praetorian guard.

"Let me introduce you to Felix he is my son, I hope you treat him with respect and take care of him, he will be living with us from today"

The Praetorians were surprised by the words of the emperor, they better than anyone understand that this can be a big problem, the empress is not a very permissive woman with the emperor.

Now that he comes with a child and says that he is his son without even doubting it, it can be a big problem but they only follow orders so the Praetorians could only nod to the emperor’s words and giving a Roman greeting they swore allegiance to Flavio’s son.

Felix did not like the way the Praetorians looked at him, but he reluctantly accepted his oath to protect him, after this, he followed his father until he entered the imperial palace.

The interior was beautifully adorned by a large number of Jade ornaments, gold, and silver, not to mention that the marble gave a much more refined appearance. For Felix who grew up in a modest house, it was magnificent to be able to see this great amount of luxuries.

But at the same time, she felt angry because her mother had to work long hours as a teacher to be able to bring food to the table, even only during her birthday she could eat some pork that her mother brought to prepare hamburgers.

Flavio noticed the great number of feelings that Felix had and gave him a big hug "Material is only material, son, what matters is the love your mother gave you.

Unfortunately, he is no longer with us but now I am and you can be sure that you will not lack anything, neither material nor emotional, you can count on me from now on, also remember that you can ask your brothers for help even though they are children they are very smart. "

While they spoke Hellena down the stairs worried that Flavio had not come to say hello and found Flavio shirtless hugging a girl of about 13 years, Hellena falsely coughed "Sweety I fear that you are developing tastes like the filthy nobles of Rome, Let me help you overcome your illness.

But first, tell me where you stole the girl from so she can ask the Praetorians to return to her family. "

Flavio was surprised by Hellena’s words but mainly because he called his son a girl who cannot see that he is a man since he refers to the illness of the nobles of Rome.

Without hesitation, he stroked his son’s hair and looked at Hellena with a smile "Hellena let me introduce you to Felix, he is my son is 13 years old his mother was arabela"

Hellena felt some pain but she knew very well that her husband had not cheated her because Felix’s age dates back to before he met her, she had to know the whole truth but for that, they had to have a very extensive talk.

Hellena gave a rather welcoming smile and approached Felix "Welcome to Origin Civitatem, it must be difficult for you when your father keeps referring to you as if you were a male"

Felix laughed for a moment. "It’s a complicated thing but I don’t have the energy to correct it, it’s not only the one they think I’m a boy but I’m a girl, I have this aspect because my mother always told me that the less feminine the less danger I was running. "

Flavio stood trying to understand the information that his daughter had said, he stinks as a father not being able to notice that detail ...
