As everyone continues walking to the rocky valley, the woman in red starts up to her curiosity. "By the way. It's no doubt that you're foreigners, but where are you from? Surely not Britannia." given from her assumption that they're not with Boudica based on their clothing. "The Far East... doesn't seem likely, either."

It is expected that every people would ask that kind of question to foreigners. Nexus doesn't want to bring up too much info exactly where we from and nothing stupid like they're from the future. Seriously? How would that convince them just saying straight up they're from the future without any viable evidence? For now, it'd be better not to bring up any names but to just state something that are vital.

"We're just travelers. We practically travel through our whole life since we don't usually live in one place." Nexus answered. Although it is obscure, but not exactly a lie since they've been to Orleans.

"Travel your whole life...?" she wondered as the distant shouts were heard coming from their direction.

"Oh look, there's company." Nexus perked up as everyone ready themselves in battle.

"Damn those restless United Empire! How dare they interrupt my beautiful voice!" she shouts in irritation readying her sword up. "You! Very striking-looking girl, I order you to serve as my shield!" she pointed to Mash giving her the order.

"Eh, uh right!" Mash responded.

"And you, average-looking one!"

"Yeah, yeah. Just a heads up." Nexus said before he braces himself. "I give my respects to you. But I'm not taking orders to anyone. Jeanne! Come with me! Everyone! Follow Nero's lead!" he dashes in the wave that the red woman called them 'United Empire' as he calls out to Jeanne.

"Yes!" she goes along with him engaging the enemy. Nexus shift's his eyes into blue as his hand creating water coiling around his arm and he starts to throw his arm creating a wave of water throwing at the enemies. The force of water was thrown at the United Empire as Nero's forces advances against them.

"Jeanne you take the side that's on the right." Nexus advises Jeanne as both of them get into their stances. "I'll take the ones on the left."

"Yes. Leave it to me, Master." Jeanne readies her banner engaging at the enemy and Nexus generates water from his hands and fires high-pressured beams of water at the Roman soldiers (enemy). He constructs a water blade from his hand countering and slashing at the soldiers. One uses a spear to lunge at him but swerves around him forming his water blade entrapping his whole body into a bubble. Nexus then back kicks the bubble launching at the mobs exploding on impact.

He then senses another arrow coming at him as he quickly flicks his wrist moisturizing the air to construct a mini water blade using the momentum and speed increasing its sharpness throwing at the arrow splitting through cleanly and hits true at the precise rate at the archer.

Once the second wave was cleared, everyone regrouped now that the enemies are cleared and no hostiles incoming.

"Somehow we're out of danger. You ended up saving the day again." the emperor remarked. "It's not uncommon to be outnumbered in war, but being on the inferior side is no fun. So tiring!" she complained.

"Well it does give you more of a challenge, great emperor." Nexus conveyed. "Speaking of which..." he could sense a strong magical reading coming ahead. "There's one right, now."

"Eh!? There's a Servant heading your way!" Roman exclaimed when there were plumes of dust heading towards their direction and it stopped revealing to be a single man with blue rough hair, black eyes with red irises, and wears gold plating along adorned with a red cape. From appearance, he doesn't look more of an ordinary roman citizen but more like an emperor.
