[Code Geass] Irregular 118

Chapter 118 – 117. The After Story of the Treason.

When Yufi and Lirina arrived at the cave, the sun was already about to set. The sound of explosions and gunfire that often resonated as they climbed the mountain must have been the sound of Woojin fighting to get them to escape. Yuffie couldn’t bear that fact and it hurt her heart. Because she jumped on a limb to save herself. Lirina was strong. Seeing her holding her hand and climbing the mountain made her feel relieved, though not as much as Woojin. However, her heart was disturbed by the appearance of the people she had left aside.

What is Cornelia doing right now? What about Guilford? What about Dalton? Woojin will have a party named Naomi in the correspondent. How is she is it eleven?

Even with so many thoughts swirling around, she continued to climb the mountain. Eventually, when she found the cave Ugin had mentioned, she saw Lelouch and a green-haired woman there.

“Lelouch!”
“Yuppie!”

Lelouch ran in a hurry and took Yuffie’s hand. Yuffie felt a little relieved when she felt the warmth in her hand.

“Woojin! We have to save Woojin!”

Yuffie shouted. At that cry, Lelouch, the green-haired woman, and Lirina all bowed their heads. She didn’t say anything to anyone. Yuffie became anxious at the sight of people.

“What? Why?”
“It’s impossible to go get him now.”

Said Lelouch. Yuffie felt like her body was about to collapse.

“Schneizel only wanted to arrest you, Yuffie, but while you ran away, the events that were handled were finished until the end. A special administrative zone in Japan has already been created.”
“What?”

Lelouch, or Zero, said that he was on his way to finish the event. Now, he is a traitor, and Woojin has become a criminal who is fighting the Britannia army alone to free the traitor.
Few people know Woo-jin’s true identity. I heard that Lelouch, Yuffie, and C.C., Who are sitting there and staring blankly into space, are the only ones. Inoue might be there too, but she’s not here right now. I don’t know what Woo-jin would do if she found out, but it was impossible for her to hear from Yu-Pi right now.

“Going to rescue Ugin right now means fighting the Britannia army. If that happens, the Black Knights will be over. Will the Japanese really accept the Black Knights saving the traitors? Even though we are in a situation where we can receive the same benefits and status as human beings?”
“That…”

Yuffie was unable to say anything at Lelouch’s words. As Lelouch said, if the Black Knights intervene now to save Ugin, the Black Knights will become the common enemy of Japan and Britannia. It wasn’t even revealed what Yuffie’s treason charge was, but since she didn’t know what it was, she did nothing to reveal that this was a trap. The black knights could deny it and step forward only when it was revealed what the crime was, but in the end, the longer it took for that to be revealed, the longer the time for the black knights to intervene.

After all, no one knew how this fight would end now.

“One week… Let’s wait here for a week.”

Lelouch talked to Yuffie. She also told me that Woojin had told her to wait here for a week, and that if she didn’t come back within a week, she would throw it away. Yuffie heard that and sat down because her legs gave out.

“What if I can’t come back in a week?”
“…”

Lelouch couldn’t say anything to Yuffie’s question. I didn’t know how long it would take to clear Yufi’s suspicions. She didn’t know that she might have to live in hiding for the rest of her life. She was trying to get rid of the same side she was closest to for Yuffie, who was in such a situation.

Then she can’t help it.

Said Lelouch. Yuffie knelt on the spot and began to weep loudly. Lirina took Yuffie’s shoulder with her hand and stroked it. After crying for a long time, Yuffie must have been tired. She went into the tent prepared in the cave and went to sleep. Lelouch had a bitter taste. Because Woo-jin’s plan was plausible. It was also Woojin who helped capture Gawain. Gawain’s system was amazing, and because of that system, the technology to make Nightmare was further developed. After seeing that, Rakshata decided to come from her leader, so when she meets her, her synergy will increase even more.

But a bigger problem arose than that. The original purpose was to leave Cornelia in Japan, where security was stable, and to make Yuffie the governor, then slowly build up the strength to face Britannia. That premise has collapsed. Yufi had already become a traitor and it was impossible to take office as governor, and no one knew what would happen to Cornelia afterwards. Woojin, who could be used as the best power in Japan to be made later, was not even known whether he was alive or dead. It would be nice to return safely, but even Lelouch knew that it would be difficult. Even if Hongryeon or Lancelot were there, it would be difficult to escape, but Woojin was fighting with his bare body. Still, judging from the sound of explosions and gunshots, it was clear that it was me. I had never heard of anyone being able to fight soldiers naked like that.

“What are you going to do?”

C.C, who had approached nearby, asked. Lelouch replied.

“Ugin has one more request. Take care of a woman named Sabrina who lives in the concession house. Karen is already on her way there. We can wait here for a week and then decide what to do next.”
“What if he doesn’t come?”
“…It can’t be helped.”

Lelouch frowned. In an instant, the plan that worked well turned into such a worst that there was no such worst. Japan has been created as a special administrative zone, and I don’t know who the next governor-general will be, but it’s not Yuffie. The situation was as if Japan had become a colony of Britannia. The Resistance also lost the justification to use their strength any longer. It is only to be completely subordinated. Lelouch was troubled. If you really can’t help it…

And the next day, the news that Kam Woo-jin was arrested came out on the radio I was listening to. As soon as Yuffie heard the news, she fainted and collapsed.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

“Okay? Inoue-san is my assistant from now on. If anyone asks, tell me that you were found and scouted by me while living in the ghetto.”

Cecile grabbed Inoue by the shoulder and spoke as if brainwashing him. Inoue was so shocked that he couldn’t hear properly. Woojin was arrested. She said that the number of soldiers killed to help Princess Euphemia escape exceeded 40. He was even heard that he was going to be transported to the mainland and put on trial. I never imagined that a bomb like this would explode while I was out with Lloyd.

“Uh…Uh…”
“Listen to me! Inoue-san is my assistant! I have to say that I never, ever had anything to do with Woo-jin. This is the first time we met in the correspondent department. Okay?”

Hearing Cecil’s words, Inoue nodded absently. Woojin’s future is uncertain. He had to make Inoue safe too. Cecil was worried about Woo-jin, who gave her the first one, but that was it. Since then, he has never been with Woo-jin. If you ask me if I have the will to help you this far, well. Even thinking so, no one had anything to say. However, the relationship between Woojin and Inoue was special. Even when she had sex with Woojin, Inoue let her go. For that alone, Cecil was in a situation where she was deeply indebted to Inoue. Now she thought she was the one to help Inoue.

Fortunately, the lab staff also wanted to help Inoue. Lloyd had a strange expression on his face and laughed, but he seemed unwilling to stop it. It was the same with Suzaku. He put on a very complicated expression, but he acted like he had no intention of exposing Inoue. In the end, as long as they cooperated with Inoue now, there would be no problem in the correspondent department protecting and hiding Inoue.

“What’s going on with Woojin?”
“…I don’t know.”

Cecil was unable to answer Inoue’s question. It was true. It was absurd that he was called to the mainland to be tried. Suzaku, who was framed as a suspect in the murder of His Highness Clovis, was also tried in the Tokyo concession. Although Woo-jin was a knight of the princess, it was a nonsense story that he was summoned to the mainland for trial.

‘Probably because of something related to the body.’

Cecil knows how great Woo-jin’s physical abilities are. This time, Lloyd even stomped her feet as he compared what he measured to Ugin’s abilities when she killed a soldier. While saying that she cheated on herself. Studying Woojin’s physical abilities would have made scientists drool and cling to him. The emperor of Britannia might have been curious about that too.

Cecil hoped she was wrong in her guess. After all, it is because she became a living experiment subject. She hugged the confused Inoue, and Cecil let out a small sigh. It wasn’t until a long time had passed that he was able to see Woojin after that.
