[Code Geass] Irregular 225

Chapter 225 – 224. Individual Breakdown

After the interview with Cornelia, I went to see the yuppies waiting in the submarine, feeling as if the world would fly away. C.C also walked beside me. Karen and Lirina seemed to join the yuppies first when they were captured by Cornelia.

“Huh? Woojin!”

Indeed, I could see the women of the Sword Breakers gathered in a cabin so large that it was hard to believe that it was a submarine. Seeing me, everyone jumped out and greeted me. Yuffie was at the forefront. Are you saying this… Is the women’s invisible rank fight? Did I go too far Seeing Biretta and Naomi standing on either side of Yuffie, and Karen and Lirina standing behind them, I don’t think that’s necessarily the case.

C.C, who was watching the scene, brought his face to his ear from behind me and whispered.

“You didn’t touch everything, did you?”

Why does he keep torturing me with words? I shivered as the wind suddenly entered my ears. When I checked behind me in surprise, I saw C.C who was laughing happily. While YUPI and Biretta didn’t know what was going on, he quietly spoke to C.C.

“Enough of that. Now. Princess Cornelia is not here.”
“Hmm. It’s not fun.”

While talking like that, C.C passed me and even the yuppies. Dive straight into the bed in the cabin. I don’t know when I brought it, I hugged C.C’s favorite cushion, Cheese, and rolled around the bed. I was dumbfounded, but right now wasn’t the time to care about C.C.

“Where are you hurt?”
“Ah. No. Thank you.”

She asked as Biretta came up to her and brushed her breasts. Did you have a good talk with Jeremiah? She must have been with Jeremiah until she boarded the Ikaruga, so she probably talked a lot about this and that, right?

“Have you had a good talk with Jeremiah?”
“Hmm? What are you talking about?”
“Uh… No. It’s just. Aren’t you two close?”

When I asked that, Biretta smiled. She seemed delighted with something.

“The relationship between me and Sir Jeremiah was just that of a boss and a subordinate. To say that we are close is a bit of an understatement. Sir Jeremiah might have thought that way, but I didn’t?”

I realized at Biretta’s words. Ah! Biretta said she used to be a noblewoman, so she did anything she did. She was a knight driven by ambition. Was the behavior towards Jeremiah just part of her pretense? Though she’s a little creepy when you think about it this way, the fact that my girl was thinking of another guy that way was quite satisfying. While stroking Biretta’s hair, I asked her yuppie.

“Yuppie? Did you talk to your sister a lot?”
“Yes! I did a lot. Like before… It’s been a long time since her sister who is neither the governor nor the princess…”

After Yufi said that, she suddenly felt her emotions welling up, and her tears welled up. I’m glad I’m not crying because it’s sad. This is the moment when going to rescue Cornelia feels rewarding. Naomi was furthest behind. Why don’t you come The moment I thought, Naomi opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, laughing very fuckingly.

Hmm.

I could see her thumb and forefinger making a loop on her and waving it in front of her mouth.

Uhm…

Calm down.

Calm down Junior!

As I thought so, I slightly diverted my gaze away from Naomi so as not to look at her. And she froze.

C.C was watching Naomi from behind her with her eyes wide open.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

It didn’t take long for the submarine to catch up with the ice ship. Come to think of it, only the Japanese were on board the ice ship, not the officers of the Black Knights. We also didn’t bother to change to the sea ice ship. There was no need to go up on the sea ice line, which was infested with ordinary people, leaving the submarine where we could be by ourselves. Besides, taking care of them is the job of the Black Knights, not ours. There was neither the manpower nor the desire to do so.

Although Yuffie felt a little sorry for her, she calmed down immediately when Cornelia stood beside her and comforted her on the shoulder. I felt strange because of the sudden increase in the number of people. Apparently, Cornelia came in as a member of the PMC, but she didn’t call me captain. The same goes for her bodyguards. I didn’t necessarily mean that I was the boss, but I started to worry about being two-channel. As soon as I arrived in the Commonwealth of China, I felt I should share some of her stories with Cornelia. Since Cornelia is Yuffie’s older sister, she couldn’t help but be more careful.

I’m on my way to see V.V with C.C. V.V was locked in a drum, leaving only his face out. I ordered it to be made like this. Even if you die of starvation because you don’t eat anyway, this baby is the one who comes back to life. Besides, I never once thought about wanting to be nice to this bastard or wanting to appease him. This bastard is a toxic bastard. It’s good not to have it.

“How are you?”
“To make it like this and ask if I’m doing well.”
“Then what are you talking about?”
“…”

When I sat down in front of V.V and asked, V.V made a snarl. He honestly wanted to lose. He may be a cute and cuddly boy on the outside, but he is older than the Britannia Emperor with Mozart hair on the inside. That he is an old man

“You. I know you’re over 60, so if you pretend to be really cute one more time, you’ll turn your neck.”
“Joy.”

V.V let out his snort as he turned his head. I didn’t put up with it. Immediately raised his fist and turned his thrush. Wood deok! With a sound, V.V’s head turned half a turn. He is dead.

After a while, there was a V.V who came back to life again.

“And…”

Seeing me turn V.V’s head around without mercy, C.C was making a tired expression. It was the first time I had seen C.C. Make such an expression. He knows how to make a face like that. I thought so, but didn’t say anything.

“Are you out of your mind?”
“…What do you want?”
“I don’t really want anything.”
“Free me.”
“Am I crazy?”

At V.V’s request, he asked with a puzzled look on his face. V.V said no more. C.C opened his mouth while watching V.V.

“V.V.”
“C.C. I didn’t know you would betray my brother.”
“Did you betray too?”
“I killed Marianne for her sister. After meeting Marianne, her sister… Got weird.”
“You’re in love.”

At V.V’s words, C.C shook his head. And he smiled lightly at V.V.

“V.V you… Liked Marianne, right?”
“…”
“Then why did the emperor leave Marianne alone until he fell in love with her?”

At C.C’s question, V.V shut her mouth and glared at her. I felt bad for some reason, so I couldn’t turn one lap and tried to get out of the seat with my fists in order to return the remaining half lap. C.C blocked it. Looking at me and shaking my head, I sat down again.

“Because you have the code?”
“…”
“Because she loves her sister so much?”
“…”
“Because I don’t like you as a boy?”
“Stop.”

C.C’s words left V.V in tears. As he shook his head, he could see that he didn’t want to listen to C.C. It was funny because only the head was sticking out of the drum, but from V.V’s point of view, it must be a very heartbreaking story, right?

“Then why did you kill Empress Marianne?”
“As I said before…”
“Isn’t it?”

V.V’s words were cut off by C.C. V.V was looking at C.C with fearful eyes. I don’t know what to fear. Did C.C’s words hit the mark? It doesn’t look like it to me. I am also a person who has been doing animation. I know that V.V was in love with Marianne. And the heart of V.V who cares for the emperor is also true. He didn’t resent the emperor even though he was dying after the code was taken away by the emperor. Rather, he died hoping that his brother’s plan would succeed. While laughing

“The Emperor knows all about V.V. You killed Marianne.”
“I know.”

V.V, who replied, glared at me. I was messing around to break my mental while I was catching him from the direction of Gears. It was so refreshing and good at that time.

“What the emperor wants is revenge for Marianne. It’s just that you haven’t killed him yet because you have the code.”
“I know that… But, is that true? Does Charles want to kill me?”

V.V asked C.C with rather sad eyes, as if in disbelief. C.C also became pitiful. From C.C’s point of view, does V.V also seem like a victim who was deprived of life?

“Because that’s the reason why I handed over the position of headmaster of Gears to you. Well, I never imagined that Clovis would suddenly catch me.”
“…Haha.”

V.V lowered her head at her words. Disappointment, betrayal, regret. It is a laugh filled with various emotions. Somehow, I caught all the heart that V.V was trying to feel sorry for.

That bastard is a toxic bastard. You shouldn’t worry about any of these things.

“What should I do?”

V.V asked. C.C. Went up to him and stroked his cheek with a very benevolent hand. I saw him, unable to move, raise his head and rub his cheek into C.C’s hand.
Like a crazy, senile old man.

“V.V, you will no longer exist in the world the emperor wishes for.”
“The world I wish for is no more.”
“V.V. What was the world you wished for?”
“A happy world with family.”
“Family?”
“Yes. Family. In C’s world, you can see all your dead nieces and nephews. You can see my mother too.”

I thought I now know why this bastard did this. This kid was really a kid. A man who has lived for 60 years, but time has stopped as a child because he was handed over the code too soon.
A being who has lived his entire life in an immature state, different from Charles, who has become more and more mature and perfected over the past 40 years.

Because Charles, who was changing, was unfamiliar, he killed the main culprit, Marianne. It must have been difficult to see the process of Charles gradually abandoning himself and becoming an adult. Unlike C.C, whose heart had already been cut off like a wavy cliff and who became indifferent unless there was a big stimulus, he was a monster who hadn’t even lived 100 years yet. In this era where the average lifespan itself has risen, a 60-year-old is treated as the youngest in a senior citizen center. How horrified he must have been to see himself different from Charles, who grew older, grew stronger, and grew taller. Maybe he was resentful of his old self who handed over the code.

“A sweet child.”

C.C said that and comforted V.V. Tears like chicken droppings fell from V.V’s eyes. Only now did he seem to accept the fact that Charles was trying to kill him. Or was it that his mentality was weakened to the point where his emotions overflowed with C.C’s consolation?

“What do you want V.V to do?”
“I don’t want to do anything. I just… Want to sleep. There’s no point in my life.”
“You don’t want to kill Charles?”
“No. I don’t want to kill. I don’t want to fight. That’s because Charles… Is my younger brother.”
“…”
“I just want to disappear. I wish I didn’t exist in this world. If I were there, would Charles want to kill me every time he saw me?”
“Maybe?”
“I hate that Charles has such feelings for me. When I’m gone, Charles won’t have to think about that.”

V.V confided his feelings to C.C. I was pitiful, but also angry. Brother Ji takes care of him so terribly.

Am I like that too?

The comfort of people I know is more important than people I don’t know.

“Do you know how to disappear from the world?”
“I’m going to hand over the code to Charles and die.”
“Then you can’t disappear forever.”
“Black…”

At C.C’s assertion, V.V cried. V.V also knew. The moment Charles’ plan comes true, he knows that he will continue to meet Charles, that he will live forever and never disappear as a ghost who can communicate telepathically with everyone in the world, while being subordinate to the accident elevator.

From V.V’s point of view, the moment Charles puts his plan into action, he continues to hang around Charles, who wants to kill him.

“Then what do I do?”
“You can sleep.”
“Sleep?”
“Yeah. If you sleep in the unmelting ice, enough time for the whole world to forget about you, when you wake up, you’ll be able to start anew.”

C.C stroked V.V’s head. V.V was startled and raised his head to look at C.C. Eyes trembled violently. C.C kindly closed V.V’s eyes again. V.V did not try to resist C.C, who closed his eyes. Tears welled up under the hand that covered his eyes.

“That’s right… Rather… That might be better.”
“Yes. If you keep holding the code, the day will come when you will meet Charles again.”
“That’s right. If you go to the world of C, you can meet Charles.”
“Yes. At that time, you make your own choice. Throw away the code and go to Charles’ side, or live in the world with the code. There will be other options as well.”
“I myself?”
“Yes. You yourself.”
“Can I?”
“What could be wrong?”
“Haha. That’s right.”

Me too once.. Whatever I want to do…

V.V fell asleep while talking like that. I felt dirty.

But I had no intention of drying it.
