Gentleman's Night Canteen

Obviously he is also interested in what Lan Meng said...

Chapter 8 I have a friend...

As Lan Meng's voice fell, Snape glanced at Lelouch unconsciously, but didn't say much, after all, in his opinion, what the two of them were discussing was not something that could be discussed in the sun Well, since Lan Meng ignored Lelouch, he must have his own support.

Is it because they are acquaintances like Mr. Shirou?

No, it doesn't look like the other party's appearance, so does it mean that the other party released a spell like 'Soundproofing Curse' without him noticing?Is it because I am too picky?No!It must be because Mr. Lan Meng is too strong!

His obsessive trust in Blue Dream made Snape doubt him, but it was clear that he was mistaken about one thing.

The first thing is that Lan Meng does have support, but it is not a soundproof spell, but because he knows that Snape and Lelouch are not from the same world at all, even if Lelouch hears it, it doesn't matter, and it is bigger The probability is that they will be gathered as a second disease just like Eri Sawamura back then.

As for another reason...

"To be honest, because it's not a 'local person', I don't know much about your views on 'that thing', but according to what you said, 'that thing' is extremely evil, and can even affect a person's will, so it is known that its There are people who resist, even fear and repel, right?"

Lan Meng didn't directly say 'black magic', but used 'that thing' to refer to it.

For those who knew it, Snape's first reaction was naturally 'Dark Magic', but for those who didn't know it, it sounded like they were confused...well, that's how it is under normal circumstances.

But coincidentally, there is a person here who is not an ordinary person.

evil?

Influence a person's will?

Feared and ostracized by those who know of its existence?

hell!Did they mean 'Geass'? !

At this moment, Lelouch broke out in a cold sweat unconsciously.

Always cautious, he couldn't help but began to wonder if he had accidentally fallen into some trap?

wrong!

Be calm!

He just went out for shopping today to relax, there is no destination at all, and this store was just a temporary decision of his to come in, even if someone wants to arrest him, it is impossible to deploy people directly beside him so coincidentally, it is definitely a coincidence! !

While keeping his expression steady, Lelouch tried his best to continue pretending to be a good student.

As for leaving?

Not to mention that it would be more conspicuous to leave at this time, he actually had another guess.

If these two people were not my enemies in ambush, then the only explanation is that I accidentally crashed into the territory of other 'Geass' holders or related persons.

Although it may seem strange to discuss Geass in public, if you think about it carefully, if you don’t own Geass yourself, even if you hear the words of the two, you probably won’t think of Geass, and you can even say that you think of some kind of ‘demon powder’ More likely.

Suddenly, Lelouch felt that he had guessed the answer.

In order to get more Geass secrets, Lelouch sat upright unconsciously, and at the same time pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

However, in order to prevent being discovered, he did not forget to disguise.

First cut Napoleon into small pieces with a knife, then held the book in one hand, and used a fork to put the cake into his mouth from time to time with the other hand, trying to pretend to be a good student.

As for Lan Meng and Snape on the other side, they noticed Lelouch's reaction and just communicated as usual.

Facing Lan Meng's question, Snape nodded silently.

Although in his opinion, there is not much difference between black magic and ordinary magic, as for the maliciousness when casting magic?

As long as it's not casting the 'Unforgivable Curse', it's actually casting more curses than usual.

And Snape's attitude was the point of difference between him and Lily.

In Lily's view, Snape was too proud and lacked awe of the black arts. She was afraid that Snape would get deeper and deeper and even be unable to escape completely, so when Snape invited her to study the black arts, she would resolutely refuse. So he persuaded the other party to give up the research of black magic.

Wu Er Lu Lu Wu Er Er Wu One

But obviously Snape didn't think about it, he just thought it was Lily's prejudice against black magic, but what he didn't know was that Lily did have prejudice against black magic, but the reason why he reacted like this was completely because of him.

Lan Meng also didn't know about this, he just shared his experience and views with Snape as an adult.

"To be honest, I can't give you an accurate answer, because I don't know the 'thing' you mentioned, but I can give you some advice as a person who has experienced it..."

Following Lan Meng's words, Snape and Lelouch, who was eavesdropping, sat up straight unconsciously. It was obvious that they were all curious about what Lan Meng would say next.

"Don't forget why you got it!"

Originally, Snape and Lelouch thought that Lan Meng would say 'be careful of black magic/Geass', but they didn't expect it to be this?

But Lan Meng didn't hold back, just took a sip of milk and continued talking.

"A friend of mine... his family is relatively poor, so he knew the meaning of 'money' better than most people since he was a child. His dream since he was a child was to make more money, but his family was poor and he couldn't do business. The only thing he could do was Just study hard…”

After Lan Meng's voice fell, Snape fell silent unconsciously, because he seemed to see himself following Lan Meng's description.

Although Snape's status in Slytherin far exceeds others, he is a half-blood wizard himself, and his family situation... is worrying. This is why he is unconsciously attracted to Lily. In his opinion, Lily is simply Warm yourself like the sun.

It was precisely because of the other party that Snape worked hard to learn magic, because he hoped to be able to protect his "sun" all the time, and even learning black magic was also for this reason.

He is indeed a genius. Countless professors have made the same evaluation on this point, but no matter how genius he is, he cannot transcend time. The only thing he can do when he is young is to have a power far beyond that of an adult wizard...

As for Lelouch on the other side, he was even more silent, because his situation was even worse than "that friend" that Lan Meng said.

When he was young, he and Mo Mo became hostages and were sent to District 11. Later, his father ignored their lives and launched a war. Although he and his sister escaped from the whirlpool by feigning death, he also made a lot of efforts that ordinary people could not imagine for his sister. It also includes studying hard. Not only that, he even made money by playing chess, just to help his sister improve her life.

I don't know whether it was because of the influence of the cooking, or simply because Lan Meng's words resonated with the two of them, but the two of them were unconsciously attracted by Lan Meng's words after just one sentence.

And Lan Meng seemed to be caught up in the memory and didn't notice the reaction of the two, but continued to tell the "friend's story" indifferently.

"He has some talent in learning, but that's all. Compared with those real geniuses, he has to put in several times the effort, but even so, he still has never reached the peak. At that time, he was like a Studying like a madman, sleeping up to 6 hours a day..."

Speaking of this, Lan Meng couldn't help but shook his head.

Although 6 hours of sleep is theoretically enough for ordinary people, the problem is that learning is a high-intensity mental activity, and 6 hours is obviously not enough, but his voice is still indifferent and firm.

"After making countless efforts, he was finally admitted to the school he wanted, but the price was that the family members who were close to him were getting farther and farther away from him unknowingly. Some of them did not understand his behavior. But there are also people who don’t want to disturb him, but no matter what the reason is, he finds that the family who once supported him behind his back support him, but their hearts seem to be getting farther and farther away from him... At this time, he regretted it , because he has forgotten the purpose of his study."

"Love to learn? No, obviously not."

"Is it for money? No, it's not. Although he worked hard to get into the school of his choice in order to find a good job after graduation, this is not his ultimate goal."

"In the end he remembered that he wanted to make more money and continued to study in order to make his family better off, but he alienated his family because of this. It was simply putting the cart before the horse..."

At the end, Lan Meng let out a sigh.

And this sigh made Snape tremble even more.

Although it's not the same, he seems to see his shadow in the "friend" that Lan Meng said.

Because he found that he was constantly working hard to learn magic, but in the end he kept alienating from Lily, and even...now almost broke.

Compared with Snape, Lelouch actually felt more deeply about Lan Meng's words, after all, he now only has one family member left.

He even felt that he was very similar to the 'friend' that Lan Meng said.

Why is he trying so hard to be a good student at school?Why did he play chess?

Isn't it just to make her sister's life better?

As for the acquisition of 'Geass' was just an accident, as for the ambition arising from 'Geass', or to put it more bluntly, what is the purpose of overthrowing the 'Holy Britannian Empire'?

Want to be king?

Is it lust for power?

Pure revenge?

Do not!

neither!

All he hopes is that his sister can grow up carefree like other children, that's all.

But what has he been doing lately?

Study your own Geass, try to use it to change the political situation in District 11, and even plan to use it as a springboard to destroy the Holy Britannian Empire...

But how long has it been since he was by his sister's side like when he was a child?

Lelouch has completely forgotten about 'Geass' for the first time since he got it, but the little things about getting along with his sister emerged in his mind...

Chapter 9 wants to create a world where Nunnally can laugh with confidence!

Lelouch, full name Lelouch Lampelucci, but he also has a name Lelouch vi Britannia that cannot be said to others.

That's right, Lelouch used to be a royal family envied by countless people, and even more specifically, he was the prince of the most famous royal family in the world.

Too bad it's all in the past, he's ditched his last name and cut himself off from everything, with the exception of his own sister, Nunnally V Britannia '.

His only connection to the past is with his half-sister Nunnally.

The current Lelouch gives the impression to the people around him that he is a gentle and elegant literary boy, who only occasionally shows his edge during chess games, and generally speaking, he is a good gentleman.

But what no one knows is that there is a broken heart hidden under the seemingly gentle face.

His mother was assassinated when he was young, and he and his sister were taken as hostages and exiled to the 11th district not long after. Later, the other party launched an invasion brazenly in order to occupy the resources of the 11th district without any regard for his and his sister's life and death.

His luck was very good, and he took his sister to escape the predicament that should have died.

But in fact, the former prince had died since that day, and only a boy named Lelouch survived.

And the only purpose of his life is to protect his sister.

But...why would he do this?

Lelouch, who has always claimed to be 'absolutely rational', suddenly found that he seemed to have never considered this issue.

Is it because of blood relationship?

No, definitely not, because if he could meet the man who abandoned them, he would stab the man through his heart without hesitation.

So is it because of the agreement?

Lelouch unconsciously recalled the communication with his mother when his younger sister was just born.

When she was just born, Nunnally was wrinkled and wrapped in swaddling clothes. At that time, the mother who usually looked strong showed a gentle expression in front of him, and told him while touching him.

"This is your younger sister, as an older brother, you must protect her~"

Obviously, as a prince, he also has other younger sisters, but for some reason, he had a strange feeling when he saw Nunnally, who was not cute at the time, an indescribable feeling, and he also tended to instinctively at that time He nodded his head, even though he didn't understand the meaning of this action at the time.

So is it because of an agreement?

Memories keep popping up in my mind.

The newly born younger sister cried loudly in the arms of the maid, but when she was held in his arms, she stopped crying and smiled;

The joy in my heart when the younger sister who was still babbling opened her arms towards her and called out the vague "brother";

When the mother died, the other party's sad expression when she cried in her arms;

As long as he holds the opponent's hand during the bombing, he seems to have infinite courage;

Today, several years later, the once young girl has become a slim girl, but what remains the same is the voice that will never change——————Brother.

There is no reason, because the other party is his most important sister, so he has to protect the other party even if he puts all his efforts into it! !

Lelouch, who has always claimed to be always rational, has come to a conclusion after some rigorous analysis. It turns out that he is not always rational.

And it was at this time that he began to think about another thing.

Is revenge really needed?

Is it really worth pulling yourself and your sister into possible dangers for the sake of the past?

Wouldn't it be good to live with my sister under the name of Lelouch Lampelucci like now?

As soon as this thought appeared, he was completely suppressed.

It's not because his hatred surpasses his love for his sister, but because he knows one thing, that is, the happiness in front of him is nothing more than a dream in the end, just like the people in District 11 more than ten years ago, when they faced that man Pray for false peace, and the end result is to be completely swallowed up, and even become a second-class person.

As long as that man is still alive, the shackles around his and his sister's necks will not disappear. Once he and his sister are discovered, they will inevitably become new bargaining chips in each other's hands, manipulating them through life like puppets, even their own. The younger sister she loves the most will become a tool for political marriage, marrying someone she doesn't love...

Do not!Absolutely not! !

He absolutely does not allow this kind of thing to happen to Nunnally!

He must break the shackles!

The eyes of Lelouch who was sitting at the dining table became more determined, and at the same time his determination to try to overthrow the man also became more determined.

But the only difference is that he used to make such a decision out of hatred.
