Eagle Flag of Epirus

"I'm taking you back, Your Excellency Semiius."

The words Justinian calmly said fell into the ears of Semiius who was behind bars, but it made this man unable to handle such a huge amount of information for a while.

"You said you were sent by the empire, is there any evidence?!" Semiius asked with some disbelief about Justinian's words. He was already in prison and it was already difficult for him. Believe anyone, even if the young man in front of him claims to be here to save him. He clearly remembered that Moriah had fallen, not to mention that he had never heard of the name Justinian, not to mention such a young governor, he should have the impression. So he didn't trust Justinian immediately.

And Justinian, who had already guessed it, threw the ring that he was ready to take out to the other party, "I think you should recognize this thing, Your Excellency Semiius. "

"This is..." After catching the ring that Justinian threw to him, Semiius was taken aback for a moment, but soon his eyes were completely attracted by the ring. Although the fire was dim, he was sure that he had not admitted his mistake.

"This is the personal seal of His Majesty Muzfius. It should be something he carried with him. How could it be in your hands?!" The shocked Vadarutai man recognized that this was something that the Emperor could only use. , And the words printed on it are also the Emperor Alexei V Muzfius who was ordered in distress on the eve of the fall of Constantinople.

According to rumors, after the fall, the emperor fled to Fort Adrian in an attempt to continue his resistance, but he did not know where he ended up. But now it seems that this is not the case. The emperor not only escaped to death, but also really made a comeback.

"Because I was sent by the emperor, and now His Majesty Muzfius has rebuilt the empire in Epirus, and because of this, you should return as the guards of the royal family." Obviously, the news was blocked and added. The Bolgars did it deliberately, and these Vadaritais didn't seem to know that the empire at this moment had regained the initiative in the war with the Latins.

And when Semiius confirmed that this was the personal seal of Emperor Muzfius, the original suspicion and guard against Justinian were reduced by more than half in an instant.

"In other words, you are really Governor Moriah? Then the Empire... You said the Empire sent you over." I saw this originally a little worried Vadarutai muttering to himself, and then suddenly excited. "In other words, have the Latins been driven away by us?!"

Since the fall of Constantinople, in order to avoid the crusaders’ pursuit and revenge, Semiius led the tribe to exile to Bulgaria, and settled down temporarily in Frachaburg. Although the traffic was blocked, he I have been eagerly looking forward to the good news from the south, but after waiting for two years, the news is often terrible. Facing the Latin invasion, the emperor retreats steadily. First, the fall of Fort Adrian, and then the fall of Fort Adrian. The entire Macedonia, and then Moriah in the Peloponnese, the former extremely powerful empire is now torn apart, and even the Latins have desecrated the sacred Constantinople and claimed to be the emperor of the Romans. , Full of ambitious tyrants ravaged the former prosperous empire territory. But under the fence, Bulgaria's encroachment on the heritage of the empire, Semiius saw that he was helpless, and could only resist silently and resolutely not succumb to the prostitution of the Bolgars.

He was locked here in despair, but he never thought that a young man was standing in front of him, claiming to be the messenger of the empire, to pick him and his tribe back to their homeland.

I have never felt so excited before, and a man who is over half a hundred years old at this moment smiles like a child.

"This is good... this is good..."

Seeing the fluctuating expression on the opponent's face, Justinian finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. It seems that both the Vadaritai and the Varangi, although they are foreign races within the empire, their loyalty to the empire has not wavered yet. However, this is not surprising. In the original historical trajectory, although the Vadarutai garrison continued to decline with the empire, it remained loyal to the royal family until the empire was destroyed and disappeared into the dust of history. And now, with the arrival of Justinian, their originally pathetic fate has also changed invisibly.

But now, Semiius himself, who is still in prison, has not yet realized this. He has no idea that the seemingly immature young man in front of him will completely change the empire’s gradual destruction and make the glory of the past. Re-illuminated in his hands.

Ever since, Justinian stepped forward and took out the key to the dungeon and opened the dark iron gate. He walked in and said slowly: "It's a pity, although the entire Macedonia and Moriah have now been restored by the empire, and Now the Latins can only curl up in Constantinople. But the power of the current empire is not enough to regain the city~www.ltnovel.com~ In addition to dealing with the Latins, they must also beware of the Bolgars who take advantage of the fire. And the Venetians who are staring at you, because of this, the empire needs your power. Vadarutai people, I only ask you whether your old vows are still valid today."

"Of course it works. As long as the empire exists for one day, the Vadarutai people will be loyal to the purple-clothed royal family to the end." Putting on the robes that Justinian had prepared for him before, only the man agreed in a deep voice.

"I have been waiting for this day for a long, long time... The Vadaritai Legion will swear allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor and will never give up."

"Well, tomorrow, I will go to your tribe with you." Looking at the other person's eyes containing a firm will, Justinian nodded and said without doubt.

"Tomorrow... then can we leave here and return to the empire tomorrow?" Unexpectedly, the schedule was brought up so quickly. As the leader of the tribe, Semiius could not hide his excitement like a young man at this moment. The time spent in Bulgaria has long been unbearable for him, and he is eager to leave this place of right and wrong immediately.

But he discovered that in front of him, Justinian's face showed a hesitant and slightly apologetic expression, and the next moment, the young man in front of him said what Semiius didn't want to hear.

"We can indeed leave here together, but before that, we must unite with the Bolgars to stop the siege of the Magyars from going south. This defensive battle, your strength is indispensable." Knowing this requirement is for Semi. How exaggerated Uth and the persecuted Vadaritai people were, but Justinian still made his request with difficulty.
