The capital Emerita Augusta of Lusitania is a city under construction founded in the year 25 BC (The current time of the protagonist is 21 BC, Flavio was born on 26 BC), by order of the Emperor Augustus as a gift to his daughter and grandson (The reasons for the foundation were changed by the influence of the god Apollo )

You can observe a large number of slaves moving building materials as well as citizens and merchants doing their daily activities, it is also possible to see auxiliaries taking care of the safety of the new city, while that the outside security is guaranteed by the Spanish Legion IX by order of the emperor while the outer wall of the city is being built

The governor's palace located north of the city was originally a walled mansion belonging to the former governor, after the designation from the august emperor of Vitellius the mansion became his property, from the location of the mansion he founded the city in the southern part.

Leaving the walls of the mansion to enter the city, you can see a procession of cavalry protecting in the middle a woman and a small child riding a dark jet horse.

Flavio felt uncomfortable riding the horse with his mother "Mother, why do we have to go out on a horse and not in a carriage?"

Julia looked at her young son with firm eyes "Because of the status of my son, you must know that being the grandson of the Emperor implies that you have to show poise, the carriage does not contribute that's why we have to leave on horseback ".

Flavio can only curse in his mind, and swallow the pain of the ass that causes him to ride a horse

"By the way mother because the cavalry is not occupying stirrups?"

Julia looked at her son again but this time with curiosity "Stirrups What is that?"

Flavio put his hand on his forehead "I forget that the stirrup was brought by the Mongol tribes centuries later, nothing mother, you'll have to wait for me to talk to the blacksmith so I can show you the advantages of stirrup"

While mother and son have a pleasant conversation, they have reached the street Decumano.

In all the Roman cities there is a street with an east-west orientation, this is called Decumano, it is also the street where the shops of the city are located.

Flavio was surprised to see as a lot of people moved in buying and selling all kinds of products, the scale was not comparable as the street Madero in the city of Mexico that he remembered

But for being a city in antiquity can have its merits, what drew attention no are the number of people who performed their daily activities, was the temple under construction of the goddess Artemis (Diana for the Romans)

Flavio pointed with his hand the temple "Mother we go to the temple I want to check some things"

Julia nodded to the order of her son and told the guard "Aurelio before going to the field we need to go to the temple of Diana"

Aurelio gave the order to move to the temple.

Flavio was taken down from the beautiful dark horse by Aurelio and walked towards the steps of the temple under construction as he headed towards the middle, where he could see a detailed marble statue of Artemis at that moment the time froze

He could see how the workers were being stopped also observed how a small fly remained in the

air petrified, suddenly he could hear a noise coming from the statue of Artemis, his eyes settled on the statue and it began to give off the dust, while He moved his limbs slowly like a person.

"Welcome brat, to my temple tell me what I can help you" The statue of Artemis spoke very easily

Flavio stared at the statue from top to bottom as he walked around

"I am surprised by the way you communicate, if I did not know you I think I would have peed of fright "

Artemis laughed at the comment of the little brat who looked at her curiously

" But there is something I do not understand, Apollo told me you were dead did he lie to me?"

Artemis sat on the pedestal of the statue "That stupid Apollo I do not think he has explained well, true is true that in this timeline won the cross and we became the forgotten and pagan, but as gods we do not die we simply entered into a kind of indefinite pause, it is thanks to your divine energy that it came into harmony with my temple that we can communicate "

Flavio stopped in front of Artemis "I understand, so it's just luck that you woke up, taking advantage of your awakening, I have to ask what kind of god Apollo did to me "

Artemis stretched out his hand and placed his finger on Flavio's forehead "It's quite complicated to say, I can feel your divine energy but I do not feel it rooted in something specific, it looks a lot like the divine energy of Apollo but at same time feel like the divine energy of Farther (Zeus), I also want to ask the bastard of Apollo why you have divine energy like they another thing that I can notice is that you have hypnotized a lot of people, including your parents "

Flavio looked away Artemis "It's not my fault!, you imagine if my parents find out that their 5-year-old behaves like an adult, I have to say it was a miracle that they never paid attention to the speed with my wounds were recovered or I never got sick, I had no choice to put them under hypnosis, talking about that you can teach me to occupy my divine powers, I do not want to have to try them and cause a situation that I can't control "

Artemis looked coldly at Flavio "Little brat, I do not like your behavior very much but I do not have an opinion with what you do or do not do, in the end, you have a mission and the means you take to complete it is up to you, and about your divine energy I can only help guide you so that you have a better understanding of your environment, the more divine energy you have greater perception, I am currently sure that with the amount you have only you can have an effective range of 5 meters "

A cold hand marble of Artemis crossed the face of Flavio.

Flavio could feel how his perception increased, it was like being able to see in all directions, he could assure that if someone wanted to hurt him and he was within 5 meters of him, none of his movements would go unnoticed.

Artemis's hand withdrew from his face, she got up from the pedestal and proceeded to take the form she had before she stopped and said: "It's all I can do for you brat, if you want to develop more you should look for my dad (Zeus)".

Flavio felt that time returned to normal, shortly after that his mother walked slowly until he could be behind him "Well my child what do you want to see in the temple of the goddess Diana"

Flavio replied to his mother "Nothing, simply had the curiosity to see the magnificent temple in construction we should leave are some people waiting for us in the country house "

Flavio took the hand of his mother and left the temple slowly, leaving behind him a beautiful statue of the goddess Artemis who seemed to follow with the look to the two people who withdraw from their temple "I should say her mother seems to be hypnotized by apollo, I think he would back at that moment I say, I'm feeling very tired so I need to sleep"

Artemis closed her eyes and back to the nothing...
