[Code Geass] Irregular 175

Chapter 175 – 174. Declaration of War

“Yes. Mom. It’s okay. Marriage is…”

Mirei complained on the phone in her student council room. The disappearance of Earl Lloyd. No, it was from her mother, who had grown fearful about her engagement to Count Lloyd due to the mass abduction by the Correspondent. She knew that Mirei, who had accepted her unwanted engagement, was also something she had to do for her family, but she couldn’t help feeling that her mother had become a little strange after Empress Marianne’s death.

“As for the engagement… Don’t worry. Yes, I’ll break it off.”

Mirei somehow put her mother’s anxiety to rest and put her phone down. Her mind was complicated. Student Council. Ever since the Special Administrative Region Japan was created and the Black Rebellion had taken place, she couldn’t get rid of the thought that something was going wrong. Suzaku, who was put into the Ashford Academy student council at best, flew to the mainland, and Woojin escaped Princess Euphemia, who was accused of being a traitor, and heard that she was caught instead. There was no

After Princess Euphemia went missing, Nina didn’t come out of the dormitory, and it felt like she was only studying and studying.

Mirai felt sorry for her. In just a little while, she will be graduating herself. Graduation was just around the corner, and the end of her academy life had to pass so bleakly. It was true that she felt a bit resentful of the other students, but thinking that reality was unavoidable, there was nothing she could do but laugh bitterly.

“President? Are you here?”

The door to the student council room opened and Shirley entered, calling for Mirei. Her Mirei’s expression changed in an instant. She has a cheerful face.

“Shirley~ Aren’t you coming with Lelouch today?”
“Chairman…”

To her Mirei’s antics, she made Shirley look tired of her. It was impossible for her to refute it any longer, she was now Shirley, used to letting her Mirei’s teasing go down one ear.

“By the way. Lelouch keeps skipping school again, why? Even if I ask Roro, he doesn’t give me a proper answer.”
“Still, is Roro coming out?”
“Listen. Roro seems to have something to hide lately.”
“Roro?”
“Yes. I can feel that you keep avoiding your seat whenever you talk about Lelouch? You must be hiding something!”

Shirley shouted as she clenched her fist in one of her hands. I can’t tolerate it! Everything he thought was revealed in his facial expression. Mirai became amused. In the increasingly desolate student council room, it would have been really sad if Shirley and Rival weren’t there.

“Is Lelouch hiding that she is seeing her lover?”
“Ah! Really! Chairman!”
“Huh? Everyone gathered here?”

While Shirley was screaming at her, Lee Val also entered the student council room. Mirei’s expression darkened at Li Bal’s remark. Ribal was sorry to see Mirei’s expression on her face.

“Uh… These days, it’s just the three of us going to work in the student council room… Haha…”
“Rival really. She needs to learn to read the mood.”

Shirley scolded Rebal for scratching the back of her head while watching Mirei notice. Then, while looking at Chairman Mirei, she brought out her words.

“President Mirei. Do you think Woojin?”
“Huh? Suddenly?”
“Hehe! Didn’t you say you fell in love with Woojin at the convention center hotel the other day?”

Shirley looked mischievous as if she had something to attack, and she crept up to Mirei. Mirei forced a smile.

“Uh… That’s… Haha!”

Actually, it’s not that I didn’t think that Woojin was a cool guy. It’s not that I haven’t thought about wanting to meet and marry such a trustworthy person later. However, it is all possible in the imagination. Because Count Lloyd was there, and originally, he had feelings for Lelouch. Although he had never expressed his mind to me.

“By the way, what is Woojin trying to do now?”

Rival said in a passing tone. Mirei was also curious about that. As far as she knew, Ugin was captured by Britannian forces and taken to prison. But he suddenly thought that he would appear at the banquet of the Chinese Federation.

“Jailbreak?”
“Yes?”
“Eh? No! Ho-ho!”

She unknowingly put her words out of her mouth, but Mirei couldn’t hear her properly, so she evaded her words to Shirley, who asked again. She needed to change the subject of conversation.

“Oh right! I have a graduation event in mind!”
“A graduation event?”
“Huh!”

Mirei smiled broadly. It was an event that could foresee that it would probably be a very enjoyable event.

“Everyone. Were you here?”

At that time, the door opened and Lelouch and Roro entered. Mirei was a little surprised. It was because Lelouch and Roro, who had not been able to properly show their faces lately, were reflected in the student council room. She was happy

“How long has this been!”
“Haha… I’m sorry I can’t come often, Chairman.”

At Mirei’s exclamation, Lelouch smiled awkwardly and apologized. Shirley was making an angry face.

“Really! Lulu! I skip school every day! Roro just evades that he doesn’t know! Are you still gambling?”

At Shirley’s words, Lelouch thought with a troubled expression. It’s a gamble. You mean chess, right? Even if she had to say no, she decided that since she had to make another excuse for skipping school, it would be easier for her to just agree.

“Uh…Isn’t it?”
“Really! Lulu is the one who uses her brain too much is wrong!”

Shirley started repeating her speech at Lelouch’s words. Mirei, who was watching it, smiled wickedly and she came up behind Shirley.

Hehe. What kind of fight is this? A couple’s fight?”
“Boo…Marriage couple…Marriage fight! President!”

Shirley, her face blushing at Mirei’s words, rushed at her chairman. Mirei laughed and ran away from Shirley. Watching the student council members like that, Ribal, who was sitting on a chair at the table and watching TV on his laptop, suddenly called out to everyone with a serious expression on his face.

“Everyone! Come here!”
“Ehh? What is it? Ribal.”

Mirei, who had been chasing Shirley for a while, saw Li Val’s serious expression and she and Shirley came to Li Val’s side. Lelouch and Roro also stood behind Ribal and looked at the laptop on which the TV broadcast was playing. Zero was projected on the laptop screen.

“Zero?”
“Nonsense. Didn’t Zero get arrested?”
“Because no one knows Zero’s face. Could someone else be pretending to be Zero?”

Shirley and Mirei talked to each other. Lelouch was staring at the TV with an expressionless expression.

That’s a recording

[I am zero.]

[To the Britannians of the Tokyo Concession. Area 11. No Japan.]

[It will be liberated.]

[A week later. The Japanese in Area 11 will rise.]

[Declare war for the liberation of Japan.]

[Therefore, request. Britannians who want to avoid the flames of war.]

[Gather at Ashford Academy. The fires of war will not reach there.]

“What!?”

Ashford Academy, where my grandfather is the head of the academy. Mirei Ashford, who asked Ashford, was shocked when Zero suddenly talked about Ashford Academy without consulting them. She doesn’t say anything to the Ashford family, she’s talking her own way. Mirei, who felt Shirley staring at her, waved her hand away in amazement. She had never even talked to Zero herself. She had never even seen it in person.

In fact, the people who saw Zero’s true identity the most were the members of the student council, but no one except for Lelouch and Roro knew about it.

[I promise that even if the concession is captured and Japan is liberated, no harm will be done to the Britannians who have fled to Ashford Academy. It will be dealt with in accordance with the Geneva Conventions.]

[Say it again. Britannians who want to avoid the flames of war.]

[Go to Ashford Academy.]

A bomb fell on Area 11, Tokyo Concession.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

“Now… Are you really going to war?”
“That’s right. That’s the only way we can continue to be brothers.”
“…”

Clubhouse. Sitting on the bed in his room, a space dedicated to the student council living with Lelouch, Roro did not hide his anxious eyes as he watched Lelouch, whom he thought of as his older brother. Now he couldn’t decide if what he was doing was really good.

Lelouch looked at Roro with benevolent eyes and explained. In fact, Lelouch’s eyes were still burdensome to Roro.

“Roro is an agent sent to keep an eye on me.”
“That’s right…”
“I still believe, even if it’s a fabricated memory, that the time we’ve been together was real. How about Roro?”
“…”

So do i.

Roro wanted to say that. This place. The life spent with Lelouch at Ashford Academy was like a ray of light in a life filled with assassinations, infiltrations, and murders. When she heard that Nanari had been secured, her heart actually sank. He wondered if he was losing his position as Lelouch’s younger brother. I shouldn’t have thought like this, but I even thought of assassinating Nanari without Lelouch’s knowledge. This is because if Nanari is killed, Lelouch’s younger brother will be the only one left.

However, at Lelouch’s words, that thought was abandoned.

“Now, me and you and Nanari. We have a chance to live a happy life for the three siblings.”
“Yes…”
“You haven’t said goodbye to Nanari yet, have you? Wait a minute. The day to say hello to Nanari and officially become brothers isn’t too far away.”

While saying that, Lelouch approached Roro and hugged Roro’s head. Roro felt Lelouch’s arm on his head. And she closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of her stomach. Is she doing well? I couldn’t judge anything yet. Because only Lelouch’s warmth was true to him.

I didn’t see Lelouch making a guilty expression on it.

[You. The moment Shirley rings, you really know that you will hit me until the Black Knights look at you.]
[And Roro. Don’t think that he will take advantage of you, but if you treat him sincerely as a brother, he will become a strong ally. I’m tired of lying yes?]

Woojin’s words came to mind.

The feelings Lelouch felt for Roro were love and hate. Even Lelouch did not know if he would be able to overcome this gap. Because when he lost his memory, Roro was ‘playing’ his brother. It was difficult for Lelouch to judge whether he would trust Roro and not betray him even if he treated him like his younger brother.

On the day that Zero declared war on Britannia, the night of the brothers having different thoughts was also passing by.
