The armored Maximus strode into the hall, followed closely by the three Ministers of War.
Maximus's sharp gaze swept across everyone, pausing slightly in front of several Germanic leaders including Icaroby, who avoided eye contact with him.
Maximus got straight to the point: "I have just received news that Rome has dispatched an army and is on its way here!"
This statement immediately broke the silence in the hall.
"The Roman Army has finally come! At last, we can have a proper battle with them!"
"Yes, the soldiers are almost impatient! Great King, how many of them have come, I wonder if we can have our fill of battle!"
"Great King, who is the commander of this Roman Army? Is it that Caesar? Many of my soldiers want revenge against him!"
...
Several legion commanders spoke eagerly, each showing a strong desire for battle.
Maximus nodded secretly, looking towards the Minister of Staff.
