Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first? Chapter 52 - 52 43 The Achilles Family

52: Chapter 43 The Achilles Family 52: Chapter 43 The Achilles Family Back at Fire Island.

As soon as he entered the Half-plane, Aske saw the girls busily working.

At the center of the mountain’s summit, a designated area had already been fenced off with ink lines, and a layer of cent foundation had been laid.

Eleanor and Sigrdrifa were carrying lumber, placing it sequentially into the frawork made of steel rods.

Nora, holding construction plans, was gesturing and discussing with dea and others at the worksite.

“What are you all doing?” Aske exclaid with a mix of laughter and tears, “Did you finish training?

So idle that you’ve started building houses?”

“It’s all done,” dea replied, coming up to him, “My arm is still numb…

Who’s this little girl?”

Her gaze fell upon Miel, standing beside Aske, as she raised an eyebrow.

“Miel, our new gunner,” Aske introduced.

“Oh,” dea drew out the word, eyeing the scars covering Miel’s face and body, and said with a smile, “She seems to be much more of a handful than I was back then.

Did you rough her up good to recruit her, Squad Leader?”

Aske: ???

“Good heavens, what happened to you?” Nora exclaid with concern after seeing Miel’s disheveled state and quickly went to administer healing.

Fortunately, the wounds on her body were minor and not serious, healing swiftly under the touch of Healing Touch.

Nora then pulled out a handkerchief she carried and wiped the dust and dirt from Miel’s face.

“Where is your father?” Nora squatted down to wipe her face as she asked.

“I don’t have a father,” Miel replied.

“I’m sorry,” Nora pursed her lips, “What about your mother?”

“She…

she’s gone,” Miel’s gaze grew distant, “Last week, from malaria, no money for dicine, she didn’t wake up again.”

“Sorry,” Nora didn’t know what to say, and after thinking, she asked, “Do you have any living relatives?”

“I have an uncle,” Miel said, biting her lip in silence before she faced the gentle-looking lady in front of her and hesitantly spoke, “He said he would take care of .

But he brought people into my ho, took all the money my mother left , and…

he brought a bad man ho.”

“A bad man?” Eleanor frowned.

“…As soon as he entered, he pinned down on the bed, trying to take off my clothes,” Miel’s voice trembled as her focus faded, “I struggled and he hit …

I hid my mother’s handgun under the pillow, so I just…”

“Took out the gun and killed the bad man,” Aske signaled for her to stop speaking and explained to everyone, “When I found her, she was being wanted by the police, accused of murdering a noble.”

“Of course, she’s now responsible for the lives of over thirty people, all of them police and rcenaries who chased after her.

The girl’s got pretty impressive aim.”

“Oh!” Sigrdrifa exclaid admiringly, “She killed over thirty people by herself?

That’s amazing; I’d like to discuss her experience with murder.

Headshots, or shots to the chest?”

Nora gave Sigrdrifa a stern look, “Don’t talk about that!”

“If that’s the case, then she probably can’t leave Fire Island now,” Eleanor stated calmly, “With such a serious cri, Constantinople will surely be conducting a massive manhunt.

As soon as she returns to reality, she would likely be discovered and arrested.”

“Right,” Aske said, “But that’s not a problem for us.

She can stay here long-term.”

Besides, Constantinople won’t last a few more months…

he added inwardly.

“Wait, you said she only killed the noble who tried to assault her, and the police and rcenaries who pursued her?” Sigrdrifa suddenly rembered sothing, “Does that an her scumbag uncle is still alive?”

“You an…” Aske pondered.

“Kill him!” Sigrdrifa declared matter-of-factly, as casual as saying, “Let’s go grab a al,” “Such a villain should not be spared.

How about we do a ‘Blood Eagle’ on him?”

“Blood Eagle?” Eleanor queried.

“It’s a traditional practice from our holand for dealing with enemies,” Sigrdrifa excitedly explained, “Tie him upside down on the execution fra, feed him a bowl of blood-stopping, life-prolonging herbs.

Then use an axe to carve an eagle’s outline on his back, dig out the flesh within the outline, break out the ribs from the inside, and there are the wings of the eagle…”

“Sigrdrifa!” Nora almost exploded, “Will you shut up?”

“What did I say wrong?” Sigrdrifa complained, but seeing Miel’s eyelid twitching, she leaned over and apologized,

“Sorry about that.

If you want to take your revenge, I won’t compete with you for the chance to carry out your own justice.

Of course, if you want to do a Blood Eagle, I can teach you step by step…”

“Revenge might be considered,” Aske thought aloud.

It wasn’t so much out of righteous indignation as it was because after helping Miel take revenge, on one hand, he could win the heart of Minerva Nas, and on the other, she would truly have no living relatives left and would have to follow the team wholeheartedly.

Just like so startup bosses who offer low-interest loans to their employees.

“I’ll go with you,” Eleanor said coldly, “I’d like to ask this scum how he could do such a heinous act.”

“Count in!” Sigrdrifa shouted with excitent, “It’s been too long since I’ve seen blood, my axe is nearly rusting!”

Eleanor and Nora both held their foreheads in resignation at the sa ti.

This silly girl seed so naive usually, but when it ca to enemies, she’d spout “kill” or “torture” and yet she says it all with an innocent expression…

What kind of education did she receive as a child!

There must be sothing wrong with your northern enlightennt teachings!
