I don’t know how many years it has been like this.
I know that even though we haven’t talked to each other and met each other in the street, the appearance of Avicas and Mar has made them my companions, guarding Rome against the invasion of his blood clan. I owe them a debt of gratitude.
I didn’t say that many imperial political changes were due to what I said.
But in fact, I have always been enthusiastic about the fate of the empire. The empire is a literary world for me. Even though I am a night hunter and an ugly human killer, I am still a Roman and live a literary life.
I feel more like a member of the Senate at that time. Sooner or later, the emperors will be dragged down by their own wars, and a powerful man like Octavian will rise and reorganize the rivers and mountains
At the same time, if the army can control the border and constantly remove the threat of barbarians, even a man can elect an emperor with a tie, so that the empire can remain intact all the time.
For Christians all over the world, I really don’t know what to do with them. It is a great mystery to me that a small group of believers who originated in Jerusalem can now develop to such a huge scale.
Before I left Anok, I was puzzled by the success of Christianity. How did they organize and how did they thrive in division and opposition?
However, I said that Anok was an oriental Roman concession to Christians, but I never dreamed that slaves from all over the world had defected to new religions, even men and women in the floating society had been suppressed.
Before I go on, please allow me to point out that historians have also pointed out that before Christianity came into being, the whole ancient society lived in a religious harmony, and no one would persecute others because of religion
Even solitary Judaism is easily embraced by Greeks and Romans, and their extreme antisocial belief is that they rebel against Rome, not that Rome wants to enslave them. This harmony is universal.
When I first listened to Christianity, everything convinced me that there was no universal opportunity for this religion. They put too much responsibility on Protestants and cut off all ways for them to worship Greek and Roman gods. My Sect will soon die out.
Moreover, Christians are constantly fighting for their true faith, and they will also struggle with each other. I think their whole concept or whatever it is called will be dissolved
But this didn’t happen, and as I said, I have lived in Rome for 300 years, and Rome is full of Christians. Their seemingly incredible ceremonies, their tombs and even private houses meet.
Just when I agreed to pay attention to everything and ignore them, two things happened to break my dream.
Let me explain one.
I said that the Roman emperors kept waging wars. Once he was murdered, the Roman Senate immediately ordered another army to be transferred from the distant provinces of the empire to a place where Caesar was defeated and set up another new Caesar.
In 35 years, there have been two Caesars and two Augustus. I don’t know exactly what these titles mean, or should I say so? I don’t care to know what they mean.
And those people who I don’t like to call "the emperor" invaded an Italian emperor named severus, who attacked Rome all the way in 37 years
And my great Rome has been with me for so many years, and I don’t want to see my old city looted!
It was soon clear to me that the whole of Italy, Sicily, Corsica, Sardinia and North Africa were already under the rule of "Emperor" Marcussen, who once repelled severus, another aggressor, Galerius, and Galerius fled in defeat.
This Macpherson, who lives six miles away from the city wall, is an animal. In an extremely unpleasant incident, he let the guards, that is, his own soldiers, slaughter the Roman people. He persecuted Christians unnecessarily and cruelly, but also accused him of raping prominent citizens’ wives. He lost the facts of war, senators, and his hands were tired of abusing his soldiers and Rome was reckless.
None of this meant much to me, but it was not until I heard that another emperor, Constantine, marched into Rome. This was the third time that my beloved city had been threatened in recent years, but I was glad that Maxine had left Rome to fight an important battle. Of course, that was because he knew that the Romans would not support him.
But who knows that this is one of the most decisive battles in western history?
Of course, as far as I know, the battle happened during the day until I woke up with the sunset. I immediately rushed into the house from the basement and found that all the philosophers and regulars were drunk. I went to the street to find out what had happened from the citizens.
Constantine finished his victory. He slaughtered Marcussen’s army and Marcussen fell into the Tiber River and drowned. But the most noteworthy thing for gathering people everywhere was that Constantine saw the omen of Jesus Christ in the war.
The omen appeared in the afternoon, and Constantine was looking up at the slightly oblique sun. A cross mark appeared and the inscription "Winning this record" appeared [note 8]
My reaction was to wonder if a Roman emperor might have seen Christian visions. I hurried back to my desk and wrote all the details in my diary of events I was not sure about, waiting to see what history could reveal.
My companions in the banquet hall are awake now, arguing about the whole incident. No one believes that Constantine is a Christian? Drink too much, please.
But it soon surprised everyone, but there was no doubt that Constantine revealed that he was a Christian. He didn’t donate a temple to celebrate his great victory as usual. He donated a Christian church and told his staff to behave like him.
Later, he presented the Pope with a palace on Mount Ka Elian [Note 9], and let me point out that this palace belongs to the Pope for thousands of years. I once knew the people who lived in it and went to see the Pope sitting in it, speculating on all this.
Soon after, the penalty law prohibiting people from being crucified was passed, and the popular sword fighting competition was also banned. Sunday became a holiday and the emperor broadened the interests of Christians. Soon we heard that Christians asked him to participate in dogmatic discussions!
