Chapter 213: Gun in Hand, Follow Me!

As the scholar gathering was nearing its end, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man with a profound gaze and an aura of erudition, led by a servant, entered the room.

Everyone turned to look and immediately let out excited and surprised exclamations:

"Xilada Ceilabi! How did you come here?"

"Ceilabi, we were just admiring your masterwork."

"You've written so well! There are some parts we didn't quite grasp, so please help us understand."

"Please have a seat here..."

The scholar named Xilada engaged with them somewhat wearily. He sat down on the carpet, smiling, and began discussing with a few people in the room about the relationship between the Tunisians and Rome.

This was the third such gathering he had hurried to that day. For him, this should have been a mere transaction—he had taken a considerable sum of money to publish "Tunisian Origins Analysis" under his own name.
