Chapter 39: Plundering the City (Part 1)

The guy named Levi didn't say anything. A soldier on each side of me pulled my arms and pressed me down. It didn't seem like they were going to send me back. It looked like they were going to interrogate me. My legs were so pitiful. They were numb when I just stood up and couldn't walk. Now I was forced to do this and it hurt so much that tears came to my eyes.

"Tell me, the location of your troops."

Levi was in front, and his tone was obviously not as kind as before. I looked at the soldiers on my left and right, and from their expressions I knew they were going to deal with me. I thought to myself that it was not good, and now I had to go back to my own team and see if Andrew and the old warlord Medius could protect me.

"Okay, go forward, turn left, and you'll find an open space."

I am telling the truth, and I don't know if this guy named Levi can understand.

"good!"

They also didn't even look back, and they didn't take me seriously. They quickened their pace, and I wanted to be lazy, so I took the opportunity to lift my feet. I didn't expect that these two guys on the left and right were so strong. I'm not fat, but with the weight of the chain mail and a Spada iron sword, which is nearly 16 or 17 kilograms, two people lifted me up and I trotted all the way. Almost as short as the time I started, Levi and his soldiers led me to the place where our troops were divided.

"Hey, Luka, where have you been? We thought you ran away!"

Before I raised my head, I heard Andrew's scolding. I raised my head quickly as if I saw a savior. I saw Andrew, no, everyone who stood up stared at me with different eyes.

"Luka, what have you done again?" Andrew glanced at the soldiers around me, his eyes full of vigilance, and then asked me seriously, "Luka, what on earth did you do?"

"I didn't do anything," I spread my hands and continued, "I just couldn't find a toilet so I went to a clean place to relieve myself. Look, I got caught."

Andrew didn't seem to believe me. He turned to look at Levi in ​​front of me and asked, "Sir, what's going on? Did you find anything suspicious about him?"

"Oh, yes, very suspicious!"

Levi looked back at me and then said, "I don't think he is a Roman because he squats to use the toilet."

Damn, why be so direct! I quickly covered my face, cursing this damn Levi from his founding ancestor to his father's generation. As a result, as I expected, everyone, yes, I mean everyone who heard him came over, looking at me with strange eyes as if they saw an alien.

"Oh my god, this is incredible."

"Oh my god, squatting to relieve myself, oh, that's horrible!"

"Oh my God, where is he from? A Hun?"

"Don't talk nonsense, the Huns are very comfortable on horseback!"

Very good, they were talking about it, as if I was really a complete different person in their eyes. Or in other words, a different kind of person. I wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into now. I was so angry that I freed my hands to grab Levi's cloak. At the same time, the alert soldier behind Levi immediately drew out his iron sword and put it on my neck.

"Oh, calm down, calm down, Luke."

Levi saw that I was a little unhappy, and spread his hands to try to calm me down. He had his back to me, and I couldn't see the expression on his face, but from his actions I could feel that he was not panicked at all, and gave people a surprisingly calm feeling. The soldier's sword blade only buckled on the skin of my neck, and I could clearly feel the slightest chill, which forced me to calm down, because if I acted impulsively, the guy holding the sword would also act impulsively, and then I would die in such an unclear way, and no one would take the blame for me. Levi was wise, and at least he knew who was in the upper hand, so he was so calm.

As if I had made a very difficult decision, I suddenly let go of my hand. Levi then patted his cloak, as if I had soiled it. Faced with such a great humiliation, I had no choice but to curse fiercely in my heart. I took a deep breath and retreated to a place they thought was safe under the control of the soldier.

"Sir, I have seen you before. You are the captain of the guard of Marshal Aetius!" Andrew may have recalled something, or he said to Levi to divert attention, "I am a soldier of the Seventh Gemina Legion."

"Ha, finally someone with some insight." Levi's mouth curled up slightly. "But then again, wasn't the Seventh Gemina Legion completely wiped out? Oh, now I remember, are you the soldier who hoped to be reinstated yesterday?"

When Andrew saw that Levi actually knew about this, his eyes lit up with excitement. He nodded rapidly, "Yes, yes, sir, I am that soldier."

Levi looked him up and down, and seemed to have made a rough judgment based on his armor. He turned back to look at me and asked, "Is this one the same as yours?"

"Yes, he saved me."

Good job Andrew, you said this with conscience!

"Ha, so Roman soldiers have such a habit?" This damn beast wanted to mock me again. I couldn't do anything now and had to bow my head.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Haha, squatting is good for your health!" I was unconvinced and retorted in a low voice. I don't know if that idiot heard me or not.

Levi didn't look back, apparently he didn't hear clearly. He stretched out his hand and shook, and the soldiers on both sides of me understood and let go of me. I rubbed my legs that had not yet recovered from the soreness, and cursed secretly, "Fuck you".

"Since you were once soldiers of the Roman Legion, the Empire will certainly not forget you!" Livius continued, "Since I am here, let me make it short. Yesterday, Marshal Aetius promised you something. I..."

Just when we were talking about the most crucial part, we heard a series of rapid horse hoofbeats coming from far away. We all looked towards the sound to see who was so tactless as to interrupt at such a critical moment. I saw a man wearing brass scale armor and a silver-shining iron horned helmet (it was exactly the same as the ones around me) riding a horse towards us. He didn't even have time to dismount and shouted on horseback: "Captain of the Guard, the Huns are coming again!"

"What? The Huns, what are they doing here?"

When the Huns were mentioned, Levi's expression changed instantly.

"They thought yesterday's spoils were too little, so they came again today with their carriages! Marshal Aetius asked you to go to the city gate to welcome them."

"Get the hell out of here, these bastards!"

Li Wei was so angry that his eyes turned red, but he could do nothing about it. He didn't say anything more after being interrupted. He led the soldiers towards the city gate. This must be the Hun master who was anxious to meet him! I thought angrily.

Looking back, the look in these people's eyes almost made me want to throw my weapon. What the hell is this? What's wrong with squatting and pooping? Do they really think I'm a monster?
