[Code Geass] Irregular 62

Chapter 62 – 61. The Black Knights

Zero was visible in the windows of the collapsing convention center hotel. After moving Lancelot with all his strength and using Varis (Variable Ammunition Repulsion Impact Spitfire) to smash the linear shot cannon that was aiming at the underground passage, Suzaku succeeded in destroying the axis of the convention center and swallowed a groan.

By now, Cornelia should have been giving orders to the Britannian army to rescue the hostages and secure Zero. Standing at the window of a collapsing hotel, Zero was bizarre. Suzaku felt that something was wrong. What is it? What? I get it.

Zero was so relaxed right now.

Suzaku felt goosebumps at the sight of the hotel collapsing and collapsing downward in a straight line, with no sign of panic.

The author already knew this would happen.

Zero pulled out something. It was a switch Suzaku was taken aback.

“No way!”

Zero also witnessed Lancelot. Since the Shinjuku massacre, the white armor that obsessively followed her where she was and interfered with her plans.

Zero didn’t hesitate and pressed the button.

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

Before rescuing the hostages, the explosives that had been installed on the skeleton of the building exploded all at once due to Zero’s switch.

In no time, the hotel was engulfed in flames. The concrete, unable to withstand the strong explosive force, spewed dust in all directions and scattered. Confirming that the hotel was collapsing at a steady rate from below, Cornelia, who tried to execute the hostage rescue operation, screamed at the sight. It was her own mistake. Did Zero notice?

“Yuppie!”

Cornelia cried. Because surviving an explosion of that magnitude seemed impossible. It was such an intense explosion that even Zero didn’t know if he could survive. The upper floors of the convention center hotel, which had been quietly sinking coo-goo-goo, seemed to be destroyed in an instant.

Suzaku, who was checking Zero while falling in the air, started to destroy the hotel due to an explosion caused by Zero’s switch, so he controlled Lancelot and jumped into the hotel that was engulfed in the explosion.

“No!”

It was Lloyd, no one else, who was taken aback by Suzaku’s actions. Naomi, who was watching Woojin comfortably beside her, thinking that Woojin would be fine, was in a situation where she had already fainted when the hotel started to explode with a roar.

“Stop it! Lieutenant Crurugi!”

Lloyd, who was communicating with Suzaku through a headset, was going crazy and jumping. How did you make that! No. What a precious talent Suzaku is! From Lancelot to Suzaku, there was nothing that was not a waste. Woojin didn’t even think of it.

Whatever the thoughts of the personnel outside the hotel, the explosion that accelerated the collapse stopped only after devastating the hotel. Lake Kawaguchi, which suddenly received a great physical shock, rocked as if it had been hit by a typhoon.

Dirt dust rose several tens of meters up, making it impossible to see anything. Everyone who watched the collapse of the hotel was speechless. It was such a destructive sound. Eventually, through the dust, the white Nightmare was the first to be seen. It was Lancelot. As if he had completely stopped maneuvering, Lancelot stood still in the middle of the ruins.
Lloyd, who saw it, looked dead and alive.

“Ha…”

He let out a sigh of relief and buried himself in the chair he had risen from with excitement. He looked like he didn’t want to do anything. Cecil, who was watching from the side, knew that Suzaku’s friends were trapped inside. I couldn’t know It was because Suzaku, who saw the faces of the hostages on the news, told them that they were his friends. Of course, there was also Woojin.

“Uh… Woojin?”

Cecil realized what she was missing. There was also Woojin there! I was so worried that I completely forgot about it!

“Uh?”

Hearing Cecil’s exclamations, Lloyd remembered Woojin only then. I hurriedly looked to the side and saw Naomi, who had already rolled her eyes and passed out. Lloyd laughed. Lancelot and Suzaku are also important, but Woojin’s physical ability was the most important to commercialize all the experiments he thought of. She lost it

“Heh… Heh heh heh… Heh heh heh heh heh heh!”
“Bae… Count!?”

Surprised to see Lloyd suddenly begin to laugh like her psychopath, Cecil grabbed Lloyd by the shoulder and shook him. Lloyd did not respond to Cecil. It’s ruined… Now we don’t know how long the technology will develop… Lloyd was very sad that Ugin’s existence was gone. No matter how strong he was, he could not have survived that explosion. We have to pray for Woojin’s rest. Lloyd thought to himself.

Suzaku was in despair. He couldn’t protect the friends who accepted him into the student council. It was the same with Woo-jin, whom I met in the correspondent department. How much peace of mind did he find when he saw him in a situation similar to his own? No matter how much he suspected that he might not be human, there would be no way he could survive this explosion.

“This time… Again, I couldn’t save myself…”

Suzaku hit Lancelot’s instrument panel. Tears flowed from my eyes like a waterfall. I wanted to protect everyone, but I couldn’t save anyone. When Suzaku realized that he was such a weak person, he blamed himself.

And as he thought so, swallowing his tears, he began to see rubber boats through some of the dust that had cleared up. It was floating on Lake Kawaguchi, and there were five to six people riding in it. At the same time, broadcasts were turned on throughout the Tokyo concession. It was a broadcast that reflected Zero’s appearance.
Suzaku opened his mouth. He was zero There seemed to be a way to survive the explosion.

[Hey Britannia. There is no need to be agitated]

The screen has been switched. An inflatable boat floating on Lake Kawaguchi and the hostages in it were reflected.

[All the hostages held in the hotel were rescued safely.]

And in that camera were Shirley, Mirei, Nina, Euphemia and Ugin.

Lloyd, who was watching this, came to his senses. Cecile also sighed. Lloyd’s madness was also a problem, but the biggest was Naomi. Hopefully her Ugin is back before Naomi wakes up from her pass out. Cecile prayed inwardly. Because she didn’t know what Naomi would do if Ugin didn’t come back, until Naomi woke up.

“Ohhh! Woojin! You’re alive!”

Lloyd grunted and began to take her mania again. She was her boss, but she couldn’t keep up with her. Cecile thought so as she looked at the screen. Now that she knew that Woojin and Suzaku’s classmates were safe, she wondered what Zero would say.

[I will return the hostages to you.]

Everyone, including Suzaku, let out a sigh of relief. Only Cornelia was so furious that her eyes trembled.

“You’re saying such a shameless thing… If you try to attack, it’s obvious that you will become a hostage again!”

The hostages were riding in a rubber raft, but the raft had no engine and no oars. It just floated aimlessly in Lake Kawaguchi, which was swaying in the aftermath of the explosion. To be able to say that the hostages were properly rescued, at least the hostages had to come ashore.

As expected, Zero seemed to value showmanship. After Zero’s short story, a light was turned on next to Zero. She said Zero was not alone. A total of six people were lined up, three on each side of him.

All of them were wearing black uniforms. His head was wearing a short hat so I couldn’t make out the shape. The short protruding visor skillfully covered her eyes. The position of the camera was not kind. Because of the position of the camera, which was shooting down from a higher place, the short visor covered all of the people standing in line, even their chins, as they lowered their heads. It was impossible to pinpoint who was who.

Again, Zero started shouting.

[People! Fear us! Let them want it!]

Zero, who wrapped his body tightly in his cape, raised his right arm. He seemed to be well aware that when he was speaking, it was easier to concentrate when he mixed up his gestures.

[Our names. The Black Knights!]

At Zero’s cry, Lloyd laughed at Zero on the screen. Zero was doing something funny. Cecile, who was by her side, seemed to feel it too. Order? Lloyd muttered as well, listening to Cecile’s absurd tone.

“Isn’t it funny? A terrorist calling himself a knight.”

There are knights from Britannia. Most Nightmare pilots are knights. A nightmare is not a knightmare that means a nightmare. To be precise, it is a play on words called knight’s mare.
Horses are ridden by knights. Therefore, all Britannia soldiers riding the Nightmare had the status of knights.

It is by no means a name that a terrorist would take on himself.

[We, the Knights in Black, are on the side of all those who do not take up arms. Even if it’s an Eleven, even if it’s a Britannia! The Japanese Liberation Front took the civilians of Britannia as hostages and brutally murdered them.]

It is false.

Britannia is not dead. Because Woo-jin killed them all first. But the fact that not a single hostage died. Only a few of the hostages knew that. This is because the hostages did not know if they were all hostages or if there were more hostages held elsewhere. In the end, Zero’s speech was nothing more than a bluff.

[This is a pointless act. That’s why we punished them. The same goes for former governor Clovis. He ordered the massacre of Eleven without arms. I couldn’t pretend I didn’t know such an atrocity. That’s why I punished him.]

Cornelia was mad to stop Zero from speaking. When she contacted the station, they received an absurd response saying that her camera had been taken away. She even heard that some crazy producer told her to keep on air because she would take responsibility. It was absurd. Even in the midst of this, Zero was using this incident to incite the murder of his own younger brother, Clovis, as a legitimate act.

It should be blocked.

But how do I stop it? There was no way to stop it. It’s too late to stop it now, and the moment they forcefully stop broadcasting, the concession’s governor-general becomes an unscrupulous group. Agitation is one line, but it is said that dozens of papers are needed to reveal the truth. Cornelia’s eyes darkened.

[I do not deny war. However, it is absolutely unforgivable for the strong to unilaterally kill the weak!]

Woojin, who was watching the speech while lying on his back in a rubber boat, also smiled.

I don’t know why I enjoyed watching this before.

Is it unacceptable to unilaterally kill the weak?

If so, Zero should have thought of himself as an existence that should never be left alive.

There is no more irrational being than Woojin in this world. Superhuman physical abilities, combat skills that become stronger with just your thoughts if you have experience points. A body immune to all Gears.

[The only ones that can be killed… Are those who are prepared to die. When the powerful try to harm the powerless. Will reappear Even if the enemy is very strong…]

Woojin trembled. After all, it seemed that his hands and feet would become octopuses if he listened to it any longer. Even now Ograd had to struggle to stretch his limbs.

[Those who have power, fear us! Those who have no power long for us! The world will be punished by our Black Knights!]

The screen is broken.

People were dazed. Woojin was also dazed. When I first met the old Zero, the concession and the ghetto! How trembled I was when I saw him unfolding his arms in order while doing so. It was still the same.

Be afraid! Crave! When I witnessed him unfolding his arms in order while doing so, I wanted to buy the eyes I didn’t see if anyone hadn’t.
