Chapter 251 - 249
Home.
Following the act of a proper ruler as he was greeted by his subjected both within Nova Carthago and then The Eternal City itself, Julius’s return was finally complete he was back to his palace.
When he exited from the carriage and started to climb the stone steps towards the palace entrance the crowd which had greet his entry to the city was now formed a the gates to the palace cheers of joy still reverberating through the air as they watched their king climbing to the heavens.
Ahead of him Julius could see rows upon rows of people waiting to also greet him, from palatial staff, to his advisors, generals, praetorian guads, and then lastly and those nearest to where he was heading, his vassals/retainers.
Zeff and Miri were among the leaders there, Zeff was pleased to see Julius return meanwhile Miri was beyond pleased for with his return her workload should lessen if only a little... right?
Her reason for wanting to lessen the load was apparent to Julius who at first almost stumbled on his steps, she was pregnant either that or the poor young woman had fallen to the vice of ample food within the kingdom mixed with poor exercise as a result of all her office work.
Julius meanwhile after getting over the initial shock could only crack a smile and laugh a bit in his head at the number of his retainers increasing yet again.
"We greet your Majesty!"
When he reached their level everyone assembled at the entrance spoke out almost as one, before taking a knee and bowing their heads.
Julius looked over the lines of his loyalists.
