ANSWER: The two lines that shows that Emperor Nero was ruthless are:
1. “Bring him to me here this instant,” said he, “and let Marcus with his knife and branding-iron be in attendance.”
and
2. "I have half a mind to burn their town about their ears so that they may remember my visit."

Emperor Nero could not bear this popularity which is why he wanted to burn the village down to make his presence remembered.
