章節 61: Will You Marry Me?

After coming to terms with the Goths, Marcellus had honored his agreements. In the following days, the Gothic tribes flooded into Noricum, providing the Western Roman Army with tens of thousands of new soldiers in the form of foederati. Without Roman resistance, they were given free rein over the lands. 

As for Illyricum, that would have to wait until it could be reclaimed from the East. In the meantime, Marcellus returned to Ravenna, which was the seat of his power. Before setting out on his journey to Ravenna, Sigefrida had instructed him to patch things up with Placidia.

Of course, Marcellus had in actuality completely neglected to visit Placidia during that time. There were two reasons for this. One was he wanted to give the girl some breathing space. After seeing her so heated, he knew she was angry at him for not responding to her feelings. Because of this, she would need some time to calm down into a rational state.
