Machine Lion Roar

Chapter 19: Before the Storm (Tuesday/Wednesday)

   "Governor! Governor! Sister Emperor! Only one hour, only one hour! Let me go to the hospital!"

   On the night when the hijacking incident ended, Euphemia, who had just returned to the Governor's Mansion, did not take a sigh of relief, so she asked Cornelia to go to the hospital.

   The result can be imagined.

   Before the impact of the hijacking incident was completely calmed down, Cornelia couldn't, and didn't dare to let Euphemia leave the Governor's Mansion again.

   In fact, the death of all the kidnappers brought new problems when Cornelia was relieved.

   That was the murderer ZERO, who killed the third prince Clovis, openly announced the establishment of an illegal organization called the "Black Knights" under the influence of the hostage incident.

   If Cornelia, who has witnessed all this happen, hadn't taken care of Yufimia's safety, she would definitely order ZERO and others to be wiped out as soon as possible.

With countless thoughts flashing in his mind, Cornelia stopped, turned and looked at her anxious sister, sighed and said, "Yufie. I know you are worried about that knight, but the doctor has not done it. Have you come to a conclusion? Although it looks scary on the outside, it's just a trauma from the fierce battle."

While talking, Cornelia took a step forward, raised her hand and stroked Euphemia’s profile, and said softly: "Yufie. What you should do now is to adjust your mentality, rest well, and then choose a suitable one. Time to visit that man, Knight K. Otherwise, his desperate efforts to rescue you from the terrorists will be wasted. You know?"

   Seeing Cornelia's determination, Euphemia finally bit her lip, nodded and obeyed Cornelia's words, and went back to the room to rest under the leadership of the maid Wen Xun rushed over.

   Watching Euphemia returned to the room surrounded by many maids, Cornelia let out a sigh of relief.

   As a sibling, Cornelia knew that if Yufimia kept going, she might loosen up, so she allowed Yufimia to go to the hospital to visit the Kamen Rider.

   "Dalton. What's the result of the conference center hotel survey?"

   After stabilizing her mind, Cornelia quickly put her mind on business.

   "Yes! According to the investigation results from the corpses unearthed from the ruins, the terrorists were indeed killed by the specially appointed knight K with a long sword, as the deputy governor said."

"Long sword? How is it possible? Although the soldiers of our Britannia Empire are excellent, the enemy is a terrorist who can survive this overwhelming disadvantage for several years. Such well-trained soldiers will be Kill with a long sword?"

   Cornelia obviously didn't believe all of her sister's words. She knew that Euphemia was hiding something from her.

   Even if these things do not have a bad effect on Yufimia, or even her, Conelia, Yufimia's concealment really makes Conelia feel anxious.

   "Continue to clear the ruins. In addition, after the notification, let the propaganda department make necessary reports on this incident."

   "Yes! Governor!"

   Standing in the aisle, Cornelia looked sideways at the moon in the night sky outside the window, and sighed secretly:

   "Perhaps, there will be a storm coming."

at the same time.

   In a room in the office building of the Student Union of Ashford College.

   "Damn it!"

   With a shout, a black helmet was thrown on the bed and rolled around until it hit a delicate body.

   "What's the matter? Have you been hit by someone?"

   With that cold expression as always, the woman lying on the bed holding the pillow raised her head slightly, and looked at the teenager who showed an angry expression.

   "What the **** is that? What is that kind of power?" The boy stepped forward, grabbing the girl's shoulder, and quickly asked.

   "Power?" With the long green hair flying, the girl's expression became more and more puzzled.

   "Power? Don't you already know it?"

   "No! That would definitely not be Geass's power! C.C! Before you signed a contract with me, did you have a contractor similar to me!"

   Suddenly, the boy thought of a possibility.

   The green-haired girl in front of her has an immortal existence. In other words, she is not as simple as this young appearance on the outside, but inside is actually an existence that has lived for at least hundreds of years.

   In this way, the boy imagined that in the hundreds of years, there were definitely other existences that were exactly the same as him and had signed a contract with C.C.

"calm!"

   The green-haired girl, that is, C.C raised his hand to catch the boy's hands, and snorted coldly.

   "It's just an accident. Can you be like this? Is the oath you swore so simple and vulnerable?"

   After C.C's cold drink, the boy finally found his sanity.

He loosened CC's shoulders, stepped back and fell on the sofa, raised his hand to cover his face, and murmured: "That's hell. One second is a living person, the next second is the head Separated."

"Is this scared? Have you forgotten? Before that, how many people did you kill with your own hands, how many people committed suicide fanatically because of an order of yours? You, with all the bones behind you, would still be afraid of this? Lu Xiu."

   C.C sat up from the bed, looked at the depressed teenager, and said every word.

"Huh. Yes. There are bones behind me." After a cold snort, the young man named Lelouch looked up at CC and said with a sharp look: "I should thank you! CC. But, my previous one. Question, you haven't answered me yet. CC, do you still have a contractor like me?"

   C.C was silent.

   The two eyes looked at each other in the air, without any emotions, but simply looking at each other.

   Gradually, C.C subconsciously avoided Lelouch's gaze.

   When the moonlight passed through the curtains made of tulle and scattered on the ground, C.C's voice faintly sounded.

   "Yes. But, he doesn't have as strong power as you said."

   "Sure enough." Lulu Xiu's eyes gradually sharpened. C.C's confession made Lu Lu Xiu feel a sense of urgency.

   The girl in front of her is undoubtedly her contractor and the source of Geass that she now counts on.

   If C.C feels that he does not have the ability to realize her wish, then it means that the current Geass will be taken back.

   "C.C. Where is his name?"

   Lu Lu Xiu's voice was calm and unwavering.

   However, C.C noticed a trace of murderous aura from it.

"Don't worry! Lelouch. That kid won't hinder you or hinder me." CC once again avoided Lelouch's gaze, and said in a calm but faintly pitiful voice: "That kid , It’s just a poor child who was dragged into **** by me."

   "Hell?"

   Lu Luxiu snorted coldly when he heard this word.

   "Is hell? Very good. In that case, I will put him aside. C, C. If he affects my plan, then I will definitely kill him!"

   C.C was silent.

   She didn't know how to respond to Lelouch.

   Whether it's Lelouch or the poor child, C.C really couldn't find any solution in a short time.

   "By the way, C.C, you are an immortal witch. Have you really seen a power other than Geass?"

   Facing Lelouch’s question again, C.C shook his head and gave an affirmative answer.

   "No. Although I can't remember how many years I have lived, but I can be sure that in this world, there is only such an extraordinary power as Geass."

   "Really? I see."

   This time, Lelouch believed C.C's words.

   He turned around and opened the curtains, staring at the direction of Lake Kawaguchi, and muttered: "It seems that in this world, there is another force that we don't know is disrupting the world."

   "Are you afraid? Lelouch. You know, human beings are always scared when facing unknown existence." C.C turned his head to look at Lelouch's back.

   Lu Lu Xiu put down the curtains, turned around, turned his back to the moonlight, looked at C.C, with an unwavering expression on his face.

   "Fear? Fear? Yes! I am very scared now! I am also very scared! However, I very much hope that this unknown force can disrupt the world as soon as possible."

   "Because, only in this way can I realize my dream-destroy Britannia!"

   A few days later,

   Cornelia, who has finally dealt with the follow-up work of the kidnapping incident, has not had time to take a sigh of relief, but is disturbed by the sudden arrival of Euphemia.

   Cornelia glanced at the captain of the guard, Gilbert, who showed a helpless look, and shook his head slightly to signal the others to leave the room.

   "Yufie, have you rested these days?"

   Cornelia smiled slightly.

   "Emperor sister. I have enough rest! Can I go to the hospital for a visit now? You know, this is also one of the vice-governor's jobs!"

   After a few days, Euphemia moved out of the vice-governor's name and tried to get permission to go to the hospital.

   Such a change made Cornelia suddenly dumbfounded.

   However, Cornelia finally agreed to Euphemia's request. However, before sending Euphemia to the hospital, Cornelia also gave Euphemia a warrant for her to bring it to Lei Mingkai.

   "Governor. Is it really okay to do this?"

   After Euphemia left the Governor's Mansion, Adjutant Dalton showed a slight hesitation on his face.

"Problem? Is there any problem? For the 11th district, I, Cornelia LI. Britania, is the new governor, but for the nobles who control this land, this is nothing but a It's just a passer-by."

   Cornelia stood in front of the window, watching the convoy carrying Euphemia go further and further, and said powerfully:

"This is undoubtedly true. However, they have forgotten one thing. Although I Cornelia will not be the governor of the 11th district for long, my sister Euphemia Li Brittany Yacho will be the governor of District 11."

Having said this, Cornelia turned to look at his right-hand man, Dalton, and asked in a deep voice: "In this case, should I personally clean up this rotten land before handing it over to the third party? Empress Euphemia!"

   Cornelia's confession shocked Dalton.

  He never thought that from the beginning, Cornelia didn't care about the position of Governor of District 11, but made a decision to clean it up and transfer it to her sister.

   "Yes! Your Highness! As you wish!"
