[Code Geass] Irregular 167

Chapter 167 – 166. The Commonwealth of China

“I’m coming.”
“Be careful and come back!”

After greeting the yuppies, I immediately switched to a submarine. I was a bit scared when I jumped and rode a submarine floating side by side on the sea. Although she was connected to the hatches though, so she wasn’t that dangerous.

“Karen, follow me too.”
“Huh.”

By the way, Karen’s entrance test isn’t even over yet, so can she roll Karen like this? I was thinking about it that way, but Karen seemed to be just as good as she was with a smile. Lirina looked at me like that and had a dissatisfied expression on her face.
Her expression asked why she was taking Karen and not herself. I chuckled. Because she seemed to know why Karen was smiling. She must have thought that she had defeated Lirina.

“You haven’t been made a special plane yet. This time, it may happen that you have to ride the Nightmare. So be patient. I’m training hard here.”
“Joy.”

This year?

While I was dumbfounded, Karen, with her triumphant expression on her face, spoke to me on purpose so that LiLana could hear.

“Captain! We’re busy, so let’s start quickly? We’re busy! ‘We'”
“Keuuugh!”

At Karen’s words, a crackling sound came from Lirina’s teeth. No, why the hell are we fighting each other over this? Karen, since she’s just been here.

So she decided to punish Karen.

“Hey. Karen.”
“Huh?”
“Lirina is your senior. If she goes downhill, she gets scolded.”
“…”
“Whoops!”

When I took Lirina’s side, this time Karen made an angry expression, and Lirina’s shoulders shook. Although she is glad that Karen is here, the line between her superiors and subordinates must be unconditional. The army is jjambab. Since Ririna came in a few months earlier, she served in the military in South Korea. From my point of view, if Karen wasn’t crazy, she shouldn’t have done that.

“Let’s go.”
“Huh.”

Karen, sullen, answered and followed. Lirina stood behind her and I waved her hand. I chuckled.
Karen remained sullen until the hatch of our submarine closed. I put my hand on Karen’s head as the hatch closed.

“From now on, they’re colleagues. Besides, they’re your superiors. If you growl at each other over trivial things, what are you doing during the operation?”
“Sorry.”
“I believe it won’t be like this during the operation, but what makes me believe is the actions of you and Lirina.
“Really?”
“Do you like it that much when Lirina gets scolded?”
“Good…! No? No?”
“Ehh…”

I sighed and went inside. After the hatch is closed, the submarine will be moving rapidly. Heading to the Commonwealth of China, since the story with Lelouch was over, I had to travel to Luoyang after entering through Jiangsu Province. The problem is, there is no way to use Asura if something goes wrong in Luoyang. Rakshata had asked if it would be better to move by truck like Lloyd did before, but that was only possible when Britannians were moving in Britannia, and moving like that in enemy territory was just advertising to be killed, so I dismissed it.

Because Rakshata is an indispensable talent.

In the end, in Luoyang, only Karen and I had to move and meet Shinku. Surviving the moment something happened had to be done purely within my abilities.

My stomach hurts because of the stress.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

“Ha…”

Inside the submarine where Woojin had let her go and her hatch closed, Yufi let out a sigh. Nanari, who followed Yufi by her side, looked up at her Yufi.

“Yuppie?”
“Yes?”
“Why is that?”
“Yeah. No.”

Yuffie let out a sigh and went inside with Nanari. The Black Knights, an organization in an ambiguous position for me, who took care of himself after Woo-jin asked for it, but did not give much help.
Sword Breaker. PMC made with Woojin.

Biretta, who entered first and was with the Sword Breaker people, approached Yuffie. Because Yuffie’s expression looked depressed. Biretta also knew why Yufi was like that.

“The princess?”
“Ah. Biretta.”

Yuffie looked at Biretta and smiled. Biretta had a worried expression. She knew that Yuffie had a crush on Woojin before she knew it. But what she followed first was herself. She started by using what Woojin did in the past as an excuse.

Of course, Woo-jin was right, but she had enough reasons to take responsibility for herself.

Even so, I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable with Biretta’s eyes looking at Yuffie. The meeting between Yuffie and Woojin was dramatic to anyone. In the Chaos Depth Charge, she was told that Ugin had been injured instead. Yuffie saved her princess. What’s absurd to her is that she was even in that position then. Ugin was the one Lancelot had hurriedly took out.

How could such a coincidence have happened?

Inside, Biretta felt that the world was very small. She’s connected with the person who raped her. It wasn’t that she didn’t like it, but she wouldn’t be ashamed to tell anyone.
For now, she seemed happy to talk with Yufi. Yuffie must be in a lot of pain right now because her pride as a princess and her feelings for Woojin are conflicting.

She wouldn’t dare to tell her princess to do this or that, but wouldn’t she be able to listen? Ririna, who looked at Biretta and Yuffie, also moved along with them.

“Would you like some tea?”
“Ah. Thank you. Biretta.”

Yuffie had a strange feeling when she saw Biretta’s appearance. She is clearly a female knight of the pureblood faction. But now her wise mother and wife did not have such a wise mother. She had hardly ever seen the old Biretta properly, but at least she would have been someone you wouldn’t even think was similar to what she is now. But how can she change like that? She thought she didn’t know anything about people.

She was seated with three women, with Biretta serving tea quickly, with her table in the middle. For some reason, Nanari and Lirina were also among her. He clicked her tongue inside her. She had a chance to listen to Yufi’s inner feelings while being embraced by Woojin, but two interrupters intervened.

“You have a very bad expression.”
“Ahaha. Is that so?”

Yuffie laughed awkwardly and drank her black tea. The tea was very tasty. Biretta’s tea-making skills were unusual. Biretta was looking at her yuppie with her worried eyes, but yuppie was hesitant to tell her how she felt to her. She must have been with Biretta when she talked to Woo-jin in the past. Lirina and Nanari were not there. But now that the two of them were here, even if they had a lot to say, they couldn’t.

At that time, Lirina said boldly.

“Because of the boss?”
“Yes!?”
“Pooh!”

At Lirina’s words, Yuffie was surprised and Biretta squirted her tea carefully. Lirina had a nonchalant expression.

“Princess. I was by her side when she fled from Narita. Isn’t it strange that I don’t know?”

Lirina’s words were correct. When Yufi was handed over to the Black Knights, it was Lirina who kept Yufi safe. She had kissed Woojin in front of Ririna. Yuffie remembered her now, and her face turned red.

“Did Biretta-san have sex with the captain?”
“How do you know that?”

Biretta’s eyes widened in astonishment. Yufi made her face she was shocked and her spirits were missing. Ririna said while glancing at Biretta.

“I’m in the room next to the captain?”
“Uh… Huh?”
“Biretta-san, you need to lower your voice a bit. You curse at the captain like that…”
“Aaaaagh!”

At Lirina’s words, Biretta’s face turned red this time. That she was found out about her sex life with Woo-jin? ‘That scene’?
She was to the point where if there was a rat hole she would want to hide. Yufi, who came to her senses at Lirina’s remark, looked at Biretta with an expression of disbelief. Biretta’s face was driven to the brink of exploding.

“That… Biretta? Are you… Swearing?”
“I even heard of a rape horse.”
“Go… Go go go go… Rape!?”
“No! No! Calm down!”

Due to Lirina’s endless outrage, Biretta finally thought that before Yuffie’s misunderstanding deepened, she had to properly explain it. But she couldn’t even figure out where and how to explain.
She said so she said it all.

As Biretta continued her explanation, she fell into despair. Her affair with Woo-jin is, in the end, a matter between herself and the two of them. Thanks to Lirina for this, the fact that she was exposed like this was absurd. As she explained, she glared at Lirina, but Lirina put her hands behind her head and whistled at her. Even though she was nasty, she was so nasty.

Yuffie was shocked to hear Biretta’s explanation.

“That…Uh…Ugin…Raped you?”
“Swing.”
“So… So?”
“What should I do? I forgave you, so at night like that…”
“Lina please!”

The words of Ririna who interrupted the conversation with Yuffie drove Biretta to the brink of madness. Lirina closed her mouth. Nanari, who was listening to everything by her side, was on the verge of fainting. She was to the point that now she couldn’t hear what she was hearing. Brother! Brother! Brother Lelouch!

“How… Could you forgive Woojin?”
“That is…”

Yuffie asked with her somber face. She forgave the person who raped her and she said that … Did that. Yuffie’s face turned red, but she couldn’t help but think that Biretta was amazing.
Biretta looked away from her, looking for an excuse, then let out a sigh. When she was lifted up again, a smile hung over her face that couldn’t be helped.

“Because I still love you.”
“Did that forgive you?”
“In the end… The problems caused by position are of no use in love…”

It was fantastic even at night… The words of Biretta, who spoke almost like crawling, echoed clearly in the suddenly quiet room at that timing. Biretta said that she suddenly became quiet and confirmed that her last words had been heard by everyone, and she raised her head in embarrassment to check the people’s expressions.

Yuffie’s eyes were trembling, and Ririna was rather bright. Then she thuds from the side! When I looked up, Nana-ri, who was overloaded, was banging her head on the table.

The room was in an uproar.

“Nanari! Nanari!”
“Princess Nanari!”
“Ahahahaha!”

Only Lirina laughed cheerfully. Lirina was happy. She was much happier now than when she was a soldier in the Valkyrie unit, Britannia.
