"She's called Nexia, the head nurse of the Medical Team and also the deputy leader!" Maximus shouted loudly.
Nexia, a Greek female slave, was bought by a steward from a nearby farm to be a concubine, suffering various abuses and experiencing two miscarriages. When the rebel army attacked the farm, she incited the slaves there, directly killed the steward and his subordinates, and joined the rebel army. Though she appeared fragile and was good at social interactions, she was strong-willed and very enduring.
At this moment, upon hearing Maximus' words, Nexia felt both surprised and puzzled, "What is a head nurse?"
"Soldiers who care for and tend to the wounded are called nurses, and the leader of these nurses is called the head nurse." Maximus deliberately distorted the meaning of 'nurse'.
Nexia and the other women immediately showed joy, being referred to as soldiers evidently elevated their status within the rebel army.
