Machine Lion Roar

"I'm going here."

No hesitation, no quarrel.

ZERO selected the target first.Moreover, he looked like he had already decided to go to that gorgeous palace from the beginning.

Lei Mingkai, Euphemia did not object to it, and Shamna was even more unwilling to speak.

Because she knew that in that majestic and luxurious palace, a man who made her faintly felt fear was sitting on the throne in the palace, waiting for the arrival of ZERO.

After watching ZERO step on the steps in front of the palace, Lei Mingkai withdrew his gaze and looked at the ancient palace on the other side.

"Yufie, Princess Shamna. Let's go! Perhaps someone has been waiting for us there for a long time."

As soon as Lei Mingkai's voice fell, the white cat zero form appeared on Lei Mingkai's shoulder.

"I feel it. What we lost should be there."

"What are we missing? Are those pieces of information? Or is it my memory?"

Lei Mingkai asked rhetorically.

"It's all possible."

As Lei Mingkai and the others approached the ancient palace, a slender and elegant figure gradually appeared on the floating steps.

"Mariana, Princess Mariana?!"

As soon as she saw that figure, the long-asleep memory immediately made Yuphemia exclaimed.

This name makes Lei Mingkai and Shamna show different expressions.

There was a trace of Lei Mingkai in his eyes, who was so excited, and secretly glanced at Euphemia, who was a little excited.

He knew that in Euphemia's childhood, she was influenced by Mariana's perfect female image, which led to a trend toward idealism when she grew up.

Shamna showed a hint of surprise.

She never imagined that when Charles competed with outsiders for the world of C, the princess who had been rumored to have already died was still alive in this world of C.

Moreover, what surprised her most was that she could not discover the fact that Mariana was still alive in C's world. Until today, she only knew the truth after guiding Lei Mingkai and Euphemia into C. .

"Long time no see! Euphemia, you are grown up!"

On the steps, the one in Euphemia, no, it should be said that in the hearts of Cornelia, Euphemia and all the royal family members, there is a princess with a perfect image, showing a little nostalgia and a kind smile. .

"Really, really Princess Mariana? Are you really alive?"

Surprisingly, Euphemia stepped forward and trot all the way down the steps to Mariana's side.

Lei Mingkai slightly gestured for the white cat zero pose, and the latter flexibly jumped on Euphemia's shoulder between a few jumps and looked at the woman in front of him curiously.

Of course, this look was pretended by the White Cat Zero.

"Youphi, I am not alive. I am just lingering in this world."

Looking at Euphemia who was surprised, Mariana shook her head, her eyes showing a trace of sadness.

"Yes, but you, princess..."

Mariana smiled softly, raising her hand to stop Euphemia's words.

"Okay. Euphy, I know what you want to ask. I am indeed dead now, but in a sense I am still alive. It's just that I can't affect the world, so Lelouch, Na Nari, I can only watch them suffer."

As she spoke, Mariana's face was filled with self-pity and sadness, and tears seemed to come from her eyes in the next moment.

"No, Princess. It has nothing to do with you. It's just that the empire is not concerned about Lelouch's safety. I know this."

Yuphemia's words caused Lei Mingkai to narrow his eyes slightly.

This girl...

Under Euphemia's relief, Mariana picked up her mood and set her eyes on Lei Mingkai and Shamna again.

"Yufie, is this your guardian knight?"

"Yes. Princess."

When Mariana saw through her relationship with Lei Mingkai at a glance, a blush appeared on Yuphemia's face.

"Knight. Is your name called Lei Mingkai?"

Mariana's voice came from the steps.

Lei Mingkai bends down slightly and said, "Yes. I have seen the princess!"

Lei Mingkai's etiquette can be said to have seriously offended the princess Mariana, but the princess did not pay much attention to Lei Mingkai's etiquette.

The princess nodded and looked at Shamna.

"Although I once heard that there was a sect that separated from the sect hundreds of years ago, I never expected to meet the leader of this sect at this delicate moment."

After all, the princess raised her hand and performed a religious etiquette towards Shamna.

"Meeting for the first time, happy meeting! Your Royal Highness Princess Shamna."

"Fortunately! It is a great honor to be able to meet the long-rumored Princess Marianna." Shamna blinked and proactively bent over to salute Marianna.

No matter as the lord of the sect or the princess of the Kingdom of Kirkstein, Shamna couldn't just walk through the scene like Lei Mingkai.

After Mariana and Shamna finished their meeting, she stretched out her hand to signal Lei Mingkai and Shamna to go up the steps.

"Come on! Knight, and His Royal Highness Shamna, the Emperor has been waiting for a long time. He, very happy to see you coming at this time!"

Along the way,

Under the leadership of Marianna,

The people walking on the floating steps were silent.

Only the White Cat Zero, lying on Yuphemia's shoulder, looked back and exchanged glances with Lei Mingkai from time to time.

"We have arrived."

As Mariana's voice sounded, everyone finally left the floating steps and stepped onto the platform at the top of this ancient palace.

Here, a silhouette like a hill is standing in front.Among women, Mariana, who has an outstanding height and graceful posture, is as small as a cute kitten in front of him.

"Charles DI Britania."

When Lei Mingkai saw that figure, a light flashed in his eyes.And the white cat Zero pose lying on Yuphemia's shoulder also jumped to the ground, and the fluff on her body exploded.

"Are you here? Euphemia, my daughter, my princess. I didn't expect you to come at this critical time."

In the strong and deep male voice, the mountain-like figure slowly turned around, facing Lei Mingkai, Euphemia, and Shamna.

"Knight Lei Mingkai, and the traitor leader who split from our order, Shamna, welcome to the world of C!"

"Knight, Lei Mingkai, see your majesty!"

Facing Charles, Lei Mingkai could not be too presumptuous, so he respectfully completed the etiquette when the knight met the monarch.

"Yeah. Lei Mingkai. You really did not surprise me. Even if you were framed by those people, you can still rely on your own outstanding ability to smash a road. You have the vast majority of our Britanian Empire. Abilities and qualities that a knight does not possess."

Charles nodded, and when he commented on Lei Mingkai's past performance with dignity, he looked at Euphemia.

"Eufemia, my daughter. Your vision is very good. Although some people have recommended a lot of knights in my ear, they tried to make me nod and choose a few of them to become your guardian knights. Now it seems, They are nothing but waste."

Charles's compliment made Euphemia surprised and doubted.

In her impression, neither her childhood nor her girlhood had ever seen Charles take the initiative to praise others.

Yes, there is only the cruelty and barbarism hidden under Charles's unsmiling face.

"Father, you, I'm sorry."

Euphemia settled her mind, and quickly lowered her head and said.

"No. This is true." Charles waved his hand.

abnormal.

It is absolutely abnormal.

Lei Mingkai frowned secretly looking at the drama of the loving father and filial daughter.

Charles would never make such a move.

The Charles Lei Mingkai knew was brutal and barbaric, and even had the ambition to fix the whole world in an immutable past.

Now, the scene that happened before him was undoubtedly the anomaly among the anomalies.

"Your Majesty. I am very allowed to ask a few questions offensively."

Shamna stepped forward suddenly and asked respectfully.

A strange color flashed in Charles's eyes, but he nodded without change.

"Ask! Our compatriots."

"Since not long ago, I have felt that C's world has changed, so I don't know what your Majesty's intention is here?"

"In order to prevent C's world from falling into the hands of someone from another world, but also to protect the world we live in."

Accidentally,

Under Shamna's question, Lei Mingkai drew a word from Charles that would never come out of Charles.

"save the world?"

Are you kidding me?!

Lei Mingkai's gaze fell on Euphemia, but found that Euphemia's face remained the same, and he did not ignite the will in his father's impassioned words to applaud his father's decision.

"Yufie?!"

"Father. I have a question."

Under Lei Mingkai's gaze, Euphemia spoke slowly.

"Yufie, do you have any questions? Perhaps, I can answer for you." It was not Charles who responded to Euphemia, but Mariana.

"Do you know the current situation of Nanali and Lelouch?"

"They were all caught by that stranger." Charles raised his hand to stop Mariana from speaking.

"Caught it?"

"Yes. This is our negligence. We originally thought that placing Lelouch and Nanali in the Ashford Academy, under the care of the Ashford family, would give a very safe environment."

Charles's face moved, as if showing a trace of sadness.

"But we made a mistake. We, who knew nothing about the people of the different world, were negligent, and Lelouch and Nanaly were taken away by the people of the other world who deliberately attacked."

As he spoke, Charles turned around and stared at the gorgeous palace opposite the ancient palace.

"Now, everything we do is not only to save the world, but also to save Lelouch and Nanali."

"lie."

however,

Facing Charles's high-sounding words, Euphemia ruthlessly tore away Charles' hypocritical features.

"Father. Maybe you don't know it! Just now, we were still with Lelouch. We entered the world of C together."

While talking, Euphemia stepped back a few steps, and distanced herself from Charles and Mariana.

"Yufie, you?!"

Mariana was taken aback for a moment, and then took a few steps forward, trying to catch Yufimia, but was blocked by the white cat Zero.

"Stop! Undead wandering in reality, go back to your hell!"

The white cat made a roar, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a white lion with gleaming mane.

"you!"

Mariana was rushed by the zero momentum, and subconsciously stopped.

"Anna, come back!"

Watching Charles' eyes flickering from a white cat to a white lion, he finally looked at Lei Mingkai.

"Sure enough. Has the power of another world hidden in your body finally awakened? Lei Mingkai."

"Emperor Charles. Perhaps, it's time to give me back what you took from me."

Charles's words are undoubtedly equivalent to admitting that he has known the identity of Lei Mingkai from the beginning. Therefore, the lost property that White Cat Zero has been worried about is probably in Charles's hands.

"Give it back to you? Lei Mingkai. Look! This is the power you are looking for!!"

Charles showed a slight sneer, suddenly raised his right hand, clenched his fist and waved it.

At the same time, a scarlet shadow rushed straight into the sky from the back of the platform, piercing straight towards the top of the dome.

Moreover, within the scarlet shadow, Lei Mingkai saw a very familiar light.

that,

That is the unique brilliance of information fragments.

"Charles! Sure enough, you took my things!"

All doubts were solved after the scarlet shadow that contained fragments appeared.

"Yes! A few years ago, in the assassination that Euphemia suffered, you appeared. You appeared on the snow-white giant lion."

Charles no longer concealed it, nor did he hide it, but straightforwardly told the truth that only he knew.

"Not only that, while you rescued Yufimia, you also delivered this fragment of the god that could kill C's world into my hands. However, at that time, I didn't know how to use this fragment. ."

"So, did you use GEASS on me?! Changed my memory?!"

Suddenly,

There was a storm in Lei Mingkai's mind.

A circle of red light appeared in his eyes.

This is a unique feature after being subscribed to GEASS.

"Yes. This is the inevitable result. Although you have a strong power, you have spent a lot of power when you rescued Yufimia. Therefore, you, who had become weak at that time, could only, also Only obey the orders of the strong."

Charles slowly put down his right hand, and the scarlet shadow that was rushing into the sky also slowed its ascent speed, separated a few tentacles from his body, and wrapped Charles's body in it.

"This is the last chance! Yuffi. Follow my orders. Help me to drive out that hateful alien. After victory, the Britannia Empire will be yours."

"So, how about you, the father?"

Euphemia's eyes were very clear, and she was not at all deceived by Charles' promise that was equivalent to a Zen position.

"Me? It's enough for me to have a C world. Yuffi, I know your ideals. So, take your knight and help me!"

Charles's eyes are very harsh.

After seeing the relationship between Lei Mingkai and Euphemia, Lei Mingkai gave up persuasion and showed hostility. Instead, he launched a family offensive against Euphemia, trying to save the country by curve, and pull Lei Mingkai on himself On the chariot.

however,

He was rejected.

"Father, I refuse! Although I don't quite understand how the world of C is related to the present world. However, I know that if you let you take C's world, then even if I become a cloth The queen of the Ritania Empire, I cannot bring even a slight change to the Empire."

Paused,

Yufimia's eyes became extremely firm.

"The 98th Emperor of the Britannia Empire Charles DI Britannia. As Euphemia LI Britannia, I declare that whatever your purpose is, I will Ascend to the throne of the Britannia Empire, become the empress of the Britannia Empire, lead Britannia, no, lead mankind on the journey of the sea of ​​stars!"

"Just indulge in the past history, now the glorious emperor, don't worry!!"
