BXBX NOVEL Chapter 92 - Encirclement of cavalry
"You believe that I would plan an arranged marriage for both you and Erendida, without your mother’s permission, you know very well that I have always instilled in you that you are free from your destiny.
I will only interfere when I see that they are deviating along a path that is not consistent with the principles of the imperial family, Son, you know very well that once you decide to protect a woman you have to hold him to the grave and make her happy.
Both your mother and I have seen that Mitsune, Italivi and maybe in the future Yatzil will be very important for you and then it will be the same, therefore none of you would like the other to be with another partner, as much as possible is that you get married. "
Yatzil who listened to the emperor was not very happy to share her future husband but before she could speak to say her complaint, Yuma stepped forward and placing her small hand on her chest said "You’re right father I would not like any of they even Yatzil were in the hands of another child, I will protect them and make them happy as you did with mom. "
Flavio could only scratch his head while watching his little son of almost 3 years talking like an adult, this would be a completely surreal scene or even Flavio could think that his son and daughter are reincarnated that keep their knowledge about their past life like him, but the reality was a little easier to explain.
Being Yuma and Erendida children of Flavio a god and Hellena a demigod, their Divine energy with which they were born gives them advantages over any child because their maturation cycle is even shorter, while a 2-year-old would be learning to Speak.
Yuma and Erendida were already learning very advanced things but Flavio did not want them to lose their childhood, therefore he let them have certain hobbies that they liked to do, for example, Yuma liked to paint while Erendida preferred to spend the afternoon experimenting with chemical formulas and magic, of course with the supervision of Lilith and Praetorian guards who knew about science to prevent him from suffering an accident.
Fortunately for Yuma and Erendida, Quetzalcoatl arrived at a good time to be their guide and teacher, the Toltecayotl that is teaching them provides peace of mind and reinforces their sense of responsibility so that they grow up learning to use their divine power.
It’s not that Flavio and Hellena are bad parents, it’s just that they grew up with mortal education quite different from what Quetzalcoatl can provide.
Flavio looked proudly at his little son "You do well to take care of them but that’s not enough you have to be with them and be a pillar that helps them grow, not a guy who only thinks about their interests and doesn’t pay attention to their needs
The path of the Harem that you will take is a path much more complicated than mine but it depends on you which path you will follow. "
When I just said his words Flavio opened his arms to hug his son, Yuma came over to hug his father and while he hugged him he whispered words he will always remember
"There are two rules that you should never break the first one is never to cheat on your partner or in your case it is not to increase the Harem, you really do not want to know what will happen if you do it, there is nothing scarier than a woman jealous or angry and the other is simpler never make your mother angry "
Yatzil could only doubtfully see how Father and Son hugged each other as they both sweated and trembled in fear, he wondered what the emperor said to Yuma.
The days passed and Amancio prepared everything necessary for the simultaneous conquest of the Mayan cities Calakmul, Tikal, Aguateca and Nakbe, these cities were the last stronghold of forces that were not controlled or allied with the empire, in the area of Pax Romana.
Therefore, it is better to eliminate future dangers when a major threat from the north is approaching where the army will again be busy taking care of a large number of people who started their way south fleeing the cold.
Amancio will command the assault on Calakmul while the other 3 cities will take care of the tribunes of the Gamma Canibalium legion, the first step is to let the cavalry together with a group of Nahuales take care of fencing the cities, to avoid leaks of possible threats to future.
By ordering thousands of soldiers on horseback from Equorum Insulae set off for the jungle camps to later besiege the cities, with the guidance of the Nahuales getting lost is not possible in the jungle.
The cavalry rode for a few hours until they reached the areas where the camps were, in the place they met some soldiers who were taking care of the camp, a few days ago they were sent to start building the places for the horses.
After arriving the soldiers left the horses in the makeshift stables to rest because tomorrow will begin the Siege to prevent anything from leaving.
The night in the jungle can be somewhat stressful but fortunately, the soldiers were tanned after fighting with monsters that the damn jungle had launched months ago, at dawn they had breakfast and set off with their horses to conquer the towns that were around the cities.
In one of the villages surrounding Calakmul, a lady was preparing corn outside the village to make tortillas, when she heard that the earth was shaking when she looked up she could see soldiers riding horses.
She had seen many times the power of those beasts therefore instead of running I wait in the place, I knew it was impossible to run faster than the horses, the cavalry continued on their way into the town.
A soldier approached she and told him that the empire would start a war campaign against Calakmul, therefore his people would be taken but they could withdraw their belongings so that they would present themselves in another place provided by the empire.
The lady could only thank Kukulcán for the mercy of the Romans, she could be a Roman citizen and enjoy the things that merchants always told her, it was a shame that the city of Calakmul made the Romans angry.
Scenes like this were repeated in the villages around the 4 cities, the conquest had begun ...
