The Greece Antagonist-Chapter 1207 - 14: Rome Is Beyond Saving, Just Wait for Death

Chapter 1207: Chapter 14: Rome Is Beyond Saving, Just Wait for Death

Who could it be?

Luo En frowned and got up to walk out of the courtyard.

In the distance, the street was a scene of chaos, littered with scattered fruits and vegetables. Several street vendors nursing fractured arms and bleeding wounds were groaning in pain.

And at the end of the road, a lavishly designed carriage pulled by four warhorses, hung with assorted items and cloth pieces, was clearly the culprit behind the disturbance.

However, at this moment, its main frame was already in tatters, and the four warhorses were all lying flat, their muscles slack as they lay on the ground, frothing heavily.

"You lowly commoner! How dare you wreck my carriage! And even harm me!"

A tooth-gnashing curse accompanied a middle-aged noblewoman who shoved away the wooden plank pressing upon her and awkwardly crawled up from the ground.

She was dressed in a purple Stola Robe, with curled hair draped in a veil. Her features were overall enchanting and quite charming, but her cheekbones were slightly high, and her brows were a bit long, giving an impression of harshness.

Coupled with her swollen forehead and the menacing fury etched on her face, she appeared utterly devoid of beauty, evoking only disgust and fear.

Yet, the figure confronting her in front of the carriage showed no trace of fear.

She released her hold and handed the almost perished little girl beneath her to the child’s mother, then puffed out her chest and sternly reprimanded the noblewoman who was there to accuse:

"For the sake of hastening, you caused havoc on the street, disregarding other people’s lives; this constitutes your first crime. I intervened to stop you, yet you repay with vile words instead of gratitude and repentance; that is your second crime. So many here have suffered due to your whimsy, and rather than showing any compassion, you show concern only for your possessions and beasts; that is your third crime! According to existing Roman law, crimes counted together call for an immediate sentence to jail, where you should spend a few months in prison!"

In the crowd, the young girl exuded a blend of divine austerity and human grace.

She wore a form-fitting gown interwoven with blue and white, like ice-crystal-sculpted light armor covering her shoulders and waist. Golden hair cascaded like heavy sheaves down to her knees, with star-like dark blue specks adorning the tips. Her eyes were the icy blue of a frigid sea, and within her irises, golden balance lines emerged, piercing the soul’s morality with their gaze. Her right arm was wrapped with a chain symbolizing absolute justice, and the hanging Golden Balance swayed with her steps, reflecting a starlit path of flowing light.

With every gesture, a sacred and untouchable aura radiated from her, provoking thoughts of the heroic enchantress who steps forth for justice in times of dire need.

——Once more, the passing [Justice Person] young lady is seen.

In the crowd, Luo En listened to the righteous proclamation and viewed the familiar face, unable to restrain a silent chuckle.

Because the person before him was none other than a student of the Justice Goddess Themis, an old friend with divine offices like stars, paths, and justice—Astraea.

Unlike the quiet, elegantly poised Themis, this second-generation Goddess of Justice was innately energetic and fond of defending the oppressed.

Thus, she had long since descended from War God Mountain to wander the mortal world.

When Luo En first returned, he had pondered meeting this old friend to catch up.

Yet, despite many inquiries made, he couldn’t locate Astraea in Greece.

It turned out she had roamed her way all the way to the Roman Divine Era.

And after all these years, this Justice Person’s character remained unchanged, still spirited and passionate about loathing evil, unable to tolerate any malfeasance.

At that moment, the noblewoman, having been publicly scolded, regained her composure and turned livid:

"Who do you think you are? To dare speak to me like that!"

While speaking, the agitated noblewoman flared up and swung her hand toward the girl’s face.

The speed was so swift that it caused the air to whine sharply.

Clearly, this noblewoman was of an extraordinary background, with Divine Blood flowing through her, making her physique far superior to an ordinary person.

But Astraea, opposite her, reacted even faster, sidestepping to avoid it and returning a slap with the same posture and technique.

"Smack!"

A crisp boom resounded across the scene.

The noblewoman spun like a top hit hard, rotating several times before collapsing to the ground.

Her long hair adorned with gold accessories scattered, opulent attire marred with dirt, her left cheek swollen, and trickles of Golden Blood seeping from her mouth, her expression a bit dazed.

In her brief confusion, the noblewoman seemed to grasp something; the intense humiliation surged within, prompting her to spring up from the ground and claw towards Astraea:

"You dare strike me, I’ll..."

"Smack!!"

An even louder slap landed on the noblewoman’s right cheek, expertly knocking her down again.

As she viewed the high swelling on both sides of the noblewoman’s face, Astraea contentedly clapped her hands.

Ah, now that’s comfortable.

In the crowd, Luo En witnessed this scene and secretly rolled his eyes.

Learning law from Themis led to such bad habits; everything had to be organized and corresponding.

Translating to reality was a slight compulsion.

And at this moment, the noblewoman, having endured two slaps in a row, finally acknowledged the reality; she realized she couldn’t match the mysterious girl’s power and turned to berate her dazed followers behind:

"Are you all dead? Just standing by while I’m bullied!"

The few awoke from their daze, their expressions abruptly shifting, hastily surrounding the mysterious golden-haired girl, preparing to capture her.

This mistress’s temper was known for its viciousness and harshness. If humiliated publicly and unable to vent it, they—the attendants—would be in serious trouble once pursued afterward.
