[Code Geass] Irregular 74

Chapter 74 – 73. Battle of Narita

Dark night. Ashford Academy swimming pool. Wearing the school’s official swimsuit, C.C was on the highest diving platform. The full moon shone through the slightly open dome. C.C, who fell in love with the moon for a while, soon dived without hesitation. Gorgeous body. Neat posture. I jumped from a height of about 10m, but the sound I made when entering the water was very quiet and clear, probably because of my good posture. Sitting on the edge of the swimming pool, Lelouch was looking at the resumes of those who applied for the Black Knights on his laptop computer.

C.C hasn’t been up for a while. She’s a witch who never dies. Lelouch put aside her worries about her and found an interesting person in her while looking at her resume.

‘Dithard Litt.’

“Britannians?”

Interesting. Revolutionary? Do you call it a fighter? Or a spy?
But the situation was too openly applied. Lelouch guessed, but was not nervous. Because she has Gears herself.

“I guess it’s good that there are a lot of people who want to join?”

C.C, who didn’t come up to the land, relaxed and floated on the water to watch the moon, spoke up. Lelouch smiled.

“It was simpler than I thought. Even people who say they hate Britannia but don’t approve of terrorism come to like the Black Knights.”

This is the opinion of most Elevens. The Black Knights are on the side of justice, not terrorists. If Euphemia’s new article hadn’t made a mess, it might have produced a more satisfying result than now. But family law is meaningless. The important thing is to be satisfied with your current achievements and what to do with the support you have gained.

With popular support, there is no one to report it. Britannians are dangerous because they support the princess’s knights more, but Eleven is different. With the Black Knights as the focal point, the surrounding Eleven gathered. Although they hated fighting, they did not withdraw their support. It is an invisible helper.

Kyoto 6th Street. Japan’s 6 prestigious families also began to support the Black Knights and even obtained Nightmare. The movement can become active nationwide, and the amount of information has begun to increase due to reports.

No problem. Conditions were mostly satisfied. However…

“Is the reason you’re making that face because of that article?”
“It’s an irregular that came out of nowhere. If I had figured out that he had that level of ability, I would have risked Gears.”

Lelouch let out a sigh when he thought of that. He’s an unstoppable figure. At the Reflane Organization’s hideout, he was able to kill himself well enough. At that time, if he had turned a little and shot, he would have done nothing and he himself would have died.
I have never seen such quick and accurate shooting. He shuddered when he thought of that time. It’s too risky.

“What if I use Gears even now?”
“Impossible. Because I already cast Gears on him.”

It was. During the example cat incident, he accidentally found out exactly what mask the cat was wearing. At the time, I didn’t know anything about his abilities, and he was so desperate that he used Gears in a hurry. He is already immune to his Gears. He also considered making them surrender through rhetoric and manipulation of the situation, but he hated himself, that is, Zero. He felt as if he had learned all the double curses he would receive for the rest of his life.

Lelouch, who remembered, sighed.

Since he couldn’t control himself, Gyula was only good with the white nightmare. Actually, that should also be gone, but he gave Karen two meals of Hongryeon, so it should be covered to some extent. But one more irritating thing suddenly popped out.

Seeing Lelouch frowning and resting with his eyes closed, C.C chuckled.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

Diethardt was annoyed. This is because a pure-blooded man and woman who came to her unexpectedly kept asking her to cover the story. To be precise, it was information gathering under the guise of an interview request.

Diethard, who had already left the broadcasting station, turned his body around to look at them and opened his mouth.

“I am a relegated body. Like you.”
“Kuh… !”

At Diethardt’s words, Jeremiah, who had come to ask him for help, but did not say her words because of her pride, glared at Diethardt with an angry expression.

“That’s why I want to borrow your strength. We have no intention of ending it like this. Aren’t you like that too?”

A dark-skinned female knight who accompanied Jeremiah. Those were Biretta’s words. Diethard laughed. There was no need to show your true feelings here. It was common sense among people of society to pretend to be relaxed even if they had no time to spare. However, he was already not interested in the station’s chief producer position. It is because he has a partner he is determined to dig out.

Zero.

He has already applied to join the Black Knights. He didn’t dare to do anything crazy to inform the knights of Britannia, especially those who wanted to improve their major somehow because their position was narrowed due to the Orange Incident.

Jeremiah, who felt impatient with Diethardt’s laid-back appearance, finally put it on. She wasn’t even going to cover things up. Because the biggest mistake she made was herself. Even if you really don’t know anything about it.

“I found a clue to Zero.”
“Hoo?”

This is interesting. Diethard, who wanted to know more about Zero and even applied to join the Black Knights, could not help but be tempted by these words.

Biretta, who was watching it, felt that things were about to get easier. In the past, Zero forcibly turned off the broadcast when the convention hotel was occupied. Stop it. Cornelia ordered the broadcast to be turned off. Diethard was the one who kept ignoring the princess’s orders and turning on the broadcast while pretending to be crazy. Because of his stubbornness, he ignored the orders of the governor, and even the second princess, and was even demoted for what he did. He judged that if interest aroused, he would act with enthusiasm on his own, no matter what he did. Before Diethardt opened his mouth again to embarrass him, Biretta struck first.

“Private Ashford Academy, investigate the male students there. He is a suspected collaborator of Zero. We are running out of time because we have to head to Narita for military work.”

In the middle of it, Diethard, who was searching for Ashford Academy on his laptop at Biretta’s words, narrowed his eyes.

It was because Biretta’s words were mixed with words that could not be heard.

“Narita? If it’s Narita… Rumor has it that there is a base for the Japan Liberation Front…”

Diethard flinched slightly. It’s not a rumor. It is a fact known to all who already know. The reason he had let it go until now was because he didn’t know what kind of reaction would be among the Eleven if he decided to destroy it. It would be nice if everyone got frustrated and followed Britannia’s reign, but if that wasn’t the case, it would have been a nuisance if the people got angry and took a wrong direction.

Sporadic terrorism. There was no human being who did such crazy things in the concession, and most of them happened in the ghetto and ended up in the ghetto.

He was a resistance member who did not have the courage to strike at the heart.

If it had been that way, he wouldn’t have thought to go and trample it on purpose. For Britannia, Japan was in that position. But the convention center hotel thing crossed the line. Even Yufi was in danger. The Black Knights, who are on the side of justice at the height of their propaganda, are a small organization, so it is difficult to catch them, but because they are a new organization, there is not much information. It was not the Japanese Liberation Front.

From the perspective of the Britannians, there were many rebels who could not be controlled. You don’t have to be both.
It was only natural that the Japan Liberation Front, whose location was revealed at the meeting on who would be eliminated first, would become the scapegoat. The location of the Black Knights has not yet been revealed.

While Diethardt was organizing her own thoughts, Jeremiah, who was standing behind Biretta, looked at Diethardt with a disgusted expression and opened her mouth.

“It’s something to think about being too smart.”

Diethard laughed at his words. Toothless tiger. Long time farmer. Several words that caricatured him came to mind.

“Is that so?”

It’s overrated.

Diethard thought to himself.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

“This is… My nightmare?”

Stunned, I opened my mouth and looked at the purple nightmare in front of me. Not Sutherland. It wasn’t Sutherland…

“It’s because the composition of a nightmare suitable for you hasn’t been finished yet~ Until then, what should I do?”

I heard Lloyd’s nasty voice from behind. I was barely able to hold back what I really wanted to do. Feeling uncomfortable at Lloyd’s words, Cecile smiled with difficulty and rubbed her back. I miss Cecil… !

“We are doing our best to prepare, but that… It’s the point where we haven’t even collected all of Lancelot’s battle data, so there’s a lot to do. Sorry.”

“Under…”

I looked at the Nightmare in front of me with a dejected expression. Yes where is this I think there will be a lot of fights against the Knights of Black in the future, but it’s dangerous to meet Karen, but if you don’t run into Karen, it’s worth fighting anyone.

Helmet-like head parts. A large lance held in one hand. A cloak fluttering backwards, useless and embarrassing.

“Aren’t you disappointed? Glasgow are no match for Sutherland. This aircraft is Sutherland’s enhanced aircraft? It is only used by Princess Cornelia’s bodyguards.”

“I am… Am I a knight of Euphemia-sama?”
“That’s why I didn’t give Sutherland. I have plans for your nightmare, so hold on to this until then.”

Lloyd said that and left. Cecil followed Lloyd as if running away. I looked at the Nightmare in front of me.

Gloucester.

It was the Nightmare I had to ride.

Hey bar.

As I let out a sigh, Naomi, who was next to me, smiled and teased me with her mischievous face.

“You hate Gloucester so much? Back in the days of resistance, if I had this machine, I think I would have done all sorts of things.”

Naomi smiled at me, and the desire to harass her was creeping into her face. Mainly at night. As I sighed, Naomi handed me two of her greatswords. I accepted it without hesitation.

“Now this.”
“What? A military bayonet?”
“Huh. Hold tight.”

The bayonet looked very different from the one I knew on the K2 rifle. The middle of the blade was dug like a blood vessel, but when I squeezed the grip hard, I felt the handle squeeze and shrink to fit my hand. Eh?

Green light emanated from the veins, and the blade tightened to cover the green light. A blade stained red. The sword body narrowed and looked like a stiletto. This…

“MVS?”

Naomi smiled brightly at my question.

“Huh! It’s small in size, so I can’t use it for a long time. 2 minutes if running continuously? I still want to be strong…”

As Naomi spoke, she gradually lowered her voice and she began to notice me. I shuddered.

“Naomi!”
“Wow?!”

I hugged Naomi and turned around. Naomi started to spin in mid-air in her arms suddenly, startled at first and screaming at her, then hugged me around my neck as I continued to spin.

I really live because of you!
