Chapter 696 Return

“Haha, hahahaha…”

In the main palace of the Flavian Palace, a nearly insane laugh was heard early in the morning.

All I saw was Luka rushing out in his pajamas, dancing in the corridor.

To every person he passed he would say, “Did you know, did you know?”

All the waiters present looked at Luca with surprise. After all, this was completely different from the usually calm and stern Luca.

"Oh my God, what kind of evil is this?"

"I have never seen Caesar like this."

When the guys who were still whispering and discussing smelled the smell of alcohol on Luga, they finally came to their senses, but they could not understand why Luga drank so much so early in the morning.

"Dead! Dead!"

Luga walked unsteadily. He could see the road clearly, but for some reason, his hands and feet just wouldn't obey him.

He stumbled all the way to Likinia's house.

“Bang!”

Luga kicked the door open. The loud noise scared Likiniya so much that her shoulders shook violently. She quickly raised her head and looked at Luga, who was leaning against the door and groaning incoherently.

“Wooo ...

Such a loud noise could be said to have made the baby, who had just come into this world not long ago, cry loudly.

"Oh, my God, look at what you have done!" Seeing the child crying loudly, Liginiya hurried over, picked up the child with the help of the old maid, patted the child, and gently comforted the crying child.

“Sorry, sorry!”

Luca blamed himself, slapped his groggy forehead with his palm, held on to the wall, and staggered towards Likinia, muttering: "Hey, you know, my wife, you must not know what happened. My God, it was so surprising that I couldn't help but drink two large cans of wine when I got up to make myself happier."

"What? What did you say?" Likinia looked at Luga with a frown. Seeing Luga getting closer and closer, she hugged the child tightly in her arms and looked at Luga with a wary face, fearing that he would do something to hurt the child in his daze.

“Wow wow wow…”

The baby was still crying, which also aroused Luca's idea.

"Hey, my little baby, Leo, Leo, come on, let your father see you!"

Luca said, walking towards Likinia with a silly smile.

I forgot to introduce that the newborn baby is a boy named Leo, which has the same name as the Western Pope Leo. It can also be regarded as a way for Luca to commemorate Leo. After all, he once gave Luca great help.

Seeing Luga getting closer and closer, out of maternal instinct, Likinia didn't know where she got the strength from. She hugged little Leo and rushed towards Luga with her head, knocking Luga onto the bed behind her.

"I won't allow you to get close to Leo!" Liginia yelled at Luca, then handed little Leo to the maid and said, "Go somewhere else quickly, the farther the better."

Looking at Luca who was lying on the bed and breathing heavily, Liginia walked to the bed with her arms folded across her chest, "Tell me, what could have made a great Augustus drink like crazy in the morning and make a fool of himself in the palace, and then come to my house and act crazy while drunk? Did the devil take away your mind and make you do this?"

"Oh, don't say that, Likinia." Luca waved his hand at Likinia and continued, "You know what? God gave me a prophecy, or rather, told me in the dark."

Then, Luca stood up, supporting his body with his right hand, he looked up at Liginia, and said with an exaggerated expression: "Do you know? Do you know? I had a dream last night. I dreamed of Attila, yes, Attila, he fell off his horse, and the bow and arrow in his hand broke. Yes, this is an omen, Attila, yes, yes!"

After Luca finished speaking, he lay down with his head tilted back. After a while, he could be heard snoring heavily.

The army of Innobindes, who had conquered Dacia, was about to return, and Luca specially built a triumphal arch for it in front of the Golden Gate leading to the Forum of Augustus.

Because of the preparations for such a grand celebration, the Roman army returning from Pannonia and Dacia waited outside the city for three full months, watching the construction of the triumphal arch before their own eyes.

As time went by, finally on a hot morning in July, the whole of Constantinople was immersed in singing and dancing. On the streets, soldiers in brand new clothes carried heavy spoils, all of which were plundered from the Hun tribes living in Dacia.

Andrew was wearing a white and purple toga with an iron scale armor underneath. He also wore a helmet inlaid with bird feathers. He looked like an invincible god, and the spectators present admired him.

"What a great Andrew, he is now like Caesar, he just needs us to give up our seats!" Looking at Andrew slowly approaching, Likinia, who was sitting on the right side of Luca, snorted coldly. She was disdainful of this grand ceremony. She was also a staunch opponent of Andrew's achievements.

Luca turned his head to look at Likinia, and he could clearly see resentment in Likinia's eyes. He didn't know how Andrew had offended Likinia to cause this, but Luca could see that there must be something strange about all this.

"Look, Andrew, your old friend is just like you back then." Tenaia was on Luca's left. She had a completely different attitude towards this matter than Liginia. "Caesar, your old friend is trying hard to imitate what you have accomplished to prove his ability. He is really a man who is willing to take action."

"Yes, yes." Hearing Tenaia's praise, Luga's face gradually became gloomy.

He turned his head and saw Tenaia walking towards Adnus, while Adnus was holding the hand of Andrew's daughter Gloria, who was Adnus's younger sister and about the same age.

"When did they get together?" Luga was a little confused and asked Tenaia quickly.

"Oh, yes, they are very good friends, just like you and Andrew." Tenaia's eyes were slits with laughter. "Besides, Adnus needs a partner. He can't just contact us, right?"

Luca no longer questioned. He slowly leaned back on the throne and turned around to see Andrew, Inobindes and Attylinnaeus walking side by side to the bottom of the stairs.

Andrew was on the far right. He looked up at Luga with an expression that seemed to be half-smile, but Luga couldn't tell why.

The expedition returned victorious, and the commanders became the distinguished class of the Senate, or rather, Andrew became one, because the other two veterans had already been one.

For some reason, Luca always felt that when Andrew achieved such an honor, he couldn't be happy at all.

"Is he no longer my best friend?" Luca asked himself secretly in his heart, but he couldn't come up with an answer in his heart. He always thought of Andrew's performance when he volunteered. Unconsciously, Luca gradually became disgusted with Andrew.
