In the basement of a ramshackle wooden house on the docks of Origin Civitatem, there was a meeting of 5 people.
"The contact with the god Mithras has been lost, officially we are alone. It is a matter of time before the genocidal empress finds us and ends our lives, what can we do?" Said a woman with her face covered by an iron mask.
One of the participants who had his face discovered with a scar on his forehead that reached his chin said "It is a fact that we are going to die, it may be that Nova Roma is an empire that differs greatly with the Roman but they have something in common.
When an enemy wants to alter the status, it doesn’t matter who or whatever they will crush until there is no trace. "
A woman who had a black Hijab who was playing with a dagger buried her at the table to get the attention of her classmates "Since we’re going to die because we don’t take someone to the grave.
The empress and her children are out of the question, they are too strong not to mention that they are gods and we don’t have the weapons to kill them, but there are 3 members of the stupid emperor’s family that we can kill. "
From his robes, he pulled out 3 papers that had drawings of faces on them and placed them on the table "There is his mother Julia and these two twin girls are Ayesha and Aurora if we can eliminate one of them or at three our deaths will not be in vain. "
One of the participants who was blindfolded and was smoking a Tabacco pipe "You know what was the last message left by Mithras, that the emperor and his family sat on the council of the gods.
What he wanted was to hand over the souls of Padme and Evan so that they could be punished for the crimes they committed, Mitra refused and insulted Flavio in a derogatory manner.
After that event, three weeks passed where Flavio hunted our people without even being able to defend himself after this Mitra died and most likely, the souls of Padme and Evan are no longer with us. "
A woman with a bare face and black eyes interrupted the speech "What do you mean Cyrus, be clearer with your words."
Ciro expelled tobacco smoke "Jasamin I forget that sometimes you are stupid, what I mean is that if we kill or even hurt Flavio’s family, our souls are doomed.
If he kills Mithras for telling him Lower God what he will not do us if we harm what he loves most, if our souls are destroyed, it is over and we cease to exist, not to mention that our end will be in the jaws of Cronus.
The first woman who spoke looked Ciro through her mask "So what do you propose Cyrus, you know that as descendants of the immortal’s death does not matter, much less if our souls are destroyed.
At least the stupid pact that our ancestors made with Dario would be complete, in any case, we have nowhere to return, Padme was our goal to defend and is now dead.
We cannot go home and if we stay in this place we are dead, what can we do. "
Ciro smiled "If our ancestors signed a deal with the Darius King because we can’t make a deal with Emperor, Arisai."
Jasamin hit the table "They killed our people because we have to fight on their behalf and if they don’t accept the oath, if I’m going to die at least I want to fight don’t you think so Nacim"
Nacim shook his head "Jasamin you are thinking as a Nova Romana citizen, I understand that you have lived in this place for two years but you have to understand that the world is not as idealistic as you think.
You know we were expelled from our lands because of the Greeks who killed and raped our population, violence has always existed and we have become accustomed to it but this place is different.
Only the cursed jungle, the Caribs and the problems of the north afflict the empire so that society does not live in constant fear, so that the population may think beyond that to be worried about how they will die.
I agree with Cyrus that it is better to be allied with Flavio than to die in their hands, at least our children or descendants we have will not have to suffer from a continent in chaos. "
The woman who had the Hijab withdrew the knife from the table "You are all weak and afraid to fight against an emperor god, but I understand what the fun is if my soul will be destroyed so I can never kill again.
Very well just tell me what clothes I have to take to the meeting ceremony with the emperor, because if he decides not to accept us and kill us at the moment, I want to be well dressed so that my body is buried with beautiful clothes, before dead than simple. "
Ciro nodded "I agree with you Cyra I prefer to die elegant than dressed in the garbage if there is nothing more to discuss I will plan a meeting with the emperor to allow us to introduce ourselves and offer our services.
Otherwise, it is an honor to have been with you. "
The next day Flavio prepared the strictest assurance to receive a group of 5 immortals who contacted Lucio to introduce himself and serve the emperor.
The 5 immortals arrived in full dress walking regardless of the security of the imperial palace in the courtyard they met Flavio and Hellena who were sitting on their respective throne.
The 5 immortals stood before the emperor and I only speak Cyrus "Save your majesty, my name is Cyrus I am a representative of the last immortals in this place.
Our ancestors signed a contract with King Darius where we pledged to protect the imperial family, for generations we have continued our duty.
We saved the imperial family when the Greeks conquered our homeland and took refuge for years in the dark waiting for a moment to attack.
Our leader and whom we had to protect was called Padme forced us to kidnap the rabbit from chaos, while she took him to Persia to destroy the enemies that inhabit his soil.
But as you know this did not end well, that is why we would like to offer our service, Evan was a son of a bitch and Padme’s favorite because of that towards what he wanted, but we are different.
We only comply with the treaties signed by our ancestors, we can swear by our honor and before you as a god that we never rape any person or kill without barracks.
Evan was something created by Padme..."
Flavio interrupted Ciro "I know that Ciro, Padme, and Evan confessed everything they had to say, that’s why I accepted today’s meeting, otherwise you would be dead.
I can accept his oath to serve the imperial family but there is a rule that I will add to him, to prevent my descendants from doing the same as Padme towards.
Under no circumstances will they kill unless the person or persons are a threat to the imperial family. They have free will in their decisions but the god that you will have to follow can choose it from the immensity of the pantheon we have available.
Finally, the rules of Pandora and his descendants will follow as long as they do not harm the imperial family, you will protect the view while the Mixtec praetorian elite will do so in the dark.
They are willing to accept the oath and follow the orders I have given them, in return, I will provide them with a place in the world of the gods as my guardians in death while in life they will receive money and protection for their families.
Cyrus and the other 4 immortals accepted the oath and from them came to an energy line that Flavio used to unite it with his divine energy, they realized that they could feel the members of the imperial family even if they did not see them.
"The oath is made, I hope great things from you immortals, you can withdraw but remember to introduce yourself to my children to let them know that they will take care of them from now on"
At that moment the immortals became shadows and went to appear before their children, Hellena looked at Flavio with some doubt "You are sure they will do nothing to our children"
Flavio shook his head "Even if they wanted they could not the oath would stop them and kill them, apart from that there is never more security for our children, you don’t believe it, love."
Hellena giggled and kissed Flavio and whispered in his ear "You know Yuma keeps asking when he will have a little brother so he can play with him, what do you think if we go for the little brother I even already have a name for him"
Flavio let out a laugh "As you order your majesty would allow me to take you to your chambers"
Hellena nodded and allowed Flavio to take her like a princess, what happens next is another story ...
