"Ah~~"

Kamiyu covered his forehead with both hands, and with a look of confusion, he looked in the direction of his forehead, which he couldn't see at all.

"Poof"

A chuckle rang in my ears.

"Hehehehe, what's that expression? C.C., who was dumbfounded and chuckling sideways, pointed in Kamiyu's direction.

"Huh"

Kamiyu smiled faintly.

"Huh?"

C.C., who was falling into a smile, suddenly felt a gentle pull from his arm, and the whole person leaned forward slightly and fell into the arms of the person in front of him.

"It's reassuring to be able to see you smile again with the same innocent smile that you only have when you lose your memory." The face is close to C.C's long hair with a hint of coolness on the back of his head, as if he wants to embrace her with all the warmth that embraces her.

I stroked the long silky smooth and cold hair over and over again, feeling the body in my arms gradually soften.

"Don't get too carried away with the guardian's tone!"

At this moment, C.C suddenly burst out and bit down on Kamiyu's neck.

'Bang~'

The two who lost their support suddenly fell to the ground.

"I've found something interesting in your memory."

"Ah~~You are too despicable for a foul~~" A weak voice came softly from the ground, and the blue dull hair trembled and straightened for a while, and then slowly drooped down.

"Wordy, it's your fault that you have weaknesses!" Although C.C let go of the neck he was biting as he spoke, the extremely close breath still made Kamiyu feel goosebumps all over his body.

"Well, you've seen how powerful the witch is, right?"

C.C., who stepped up from Kamiyu, looked at the young man below him with a condescending smug look.

"I didn't expect the effect to be so significant"

Seeing that C.C., who was still out of breath and had not returned to his senses, his eyes slowly softened, and the palm that caressed the young man's face revealed a trace of inexplicable complicated feelings.

"Heh" Just as Kamiyu came back to his senses, C.C's face suddenly crossed a faint smile, and he turned over and stood up with a light movement.

With his hands behind his back, he took a few random steps.

"Ahhh~~ This place, compared to when I just came in, it seems to be missing something."

"Huh?"

Although it is an obvious means of digressing the topic, it is very effective for Kamiyu.

"What's missing," Kamiyu's voice cut off abruptly.

"Huh!!! Why is Gawain gone!!? ”

In the cavern, except for some data cables that had been forcibly torn off, the huge mech had completely disappeared.

"Oh no, Lloyd is really going to be angry now" Kamiyu held his head in distress, but soon, he regained his composure.

"Well~~ Anyway, Lloyd is a child's temper, if you get him some 'new toys', he will forget about it when he turns his head."

[You're a child's personality!] C.C., who heard this, just had this one thought in his mind

"Your Highness!!"

At this moment, an anxious call came from the door of the cave.

"Jeremia?" Kamiyu and C.C.'s eyes suddenly turned to the figure that appeared at the entrance of the cave.

"Your Highness is so good to see you safe and sound." Jeremiah ran in in fear.

"When I saw Gawain flying out of the city just now, I really thought you had."

Certain words are taboo, especially prominent in imperial states. It's just that, even in democracies, I'm afraid that only those who don't have brains will say in front of a living person that the other person is 'dead' on such an occasion.

"In Lower Jeremiah Goldbart has twice lost his lord. If even His Highness has any accidents, he can only apologize for his sins with death, and even if he dies, he will have no shame to face His Highness."

[Two sovereigns? Kamiyu was slightly stunned, but quickly understood.

Jeremiah had served as the captain of the guard at the Aries Palace, so it was understandable that Mariana was his first monarch.

"Jeremiaqing, you've done your best, please don't blame yourself. Presumably, His Highness Mariana and Clovis's Highness will not blame you. ”

[Jeremiah is brave and it's okay, but it's too easy to be swayed by emotions. Although I have experienced such a major setback twice, it will take a little time to change my previous mindset and mature. No, it's strange] Sitting in the base of Shikinejima, looking out the window at the pouring rain, Kamiyu thought in a daze.

Due to the typhoon outside, the entire Kyushu area was enveloped by a violent storm. Kamiyu and his party could only temporarily stay at the Shikinejima military base not far from Shene Island.

What kind of person is Jeremia? 】

On the island of Shengen, Jeremia's words made him discover the contradictions in this man for the first time.

Loyalty?

True, the loyalty of this man is undeniable. But why is such a loyal man alive after losing the two kings he served?

In the Aries Palace incident 8 years ago, Jeremiah served as the captain of the Aries Palace's guards.

Unlike ordinary guards, the position of captain needs to be appointed by His Royal Highness of the palace, or by the commander of the defense himself. These guards are the equivalent of private soldiers, because no one will leave their safety to someone who knows the details.

But Cornella has no impression of Jeremia, that is, Jeremia is named by Mariana.

Of course, there was also the innocence of the Gothbald family, but in the eyes of the other factions, Jeremia had already been branded as Marianne's faction by that time.

[If you say, is it to avenge the lord and survive the origin was mistaken from the beginning? ] 】

Thinking like this, Kamiyu seemed to have caught something.

[The cause of Mariana's death is strange, and this is not a secret in the upper echelons of the empire. Jeremia also knew that there was a force behind this incident that he couldn't shake. Therefore, if you want to find out the truth and avenge Mariana, you must climb to a high position and accumulate strength. So he switched to Clovis's door, no, it's really a contradiction]

Clovis isn't a good prince if Jeremia wants to climb to the top and build up his strength. At that time, both Schunazel, who had already served as the secretary of state, and Cornelia, who had already made a name for himself in the military circles, were a better choice than Clovis, who had no responsibilities yet.

If it is said that Cernesel and Cornelia are not the kind of objects that can be manipulated, then Odysseus, as the first heir to the throne, has an absolute advantage over Crovis. Moreover, this person has a cowardly personality and is hesitant in the face of problems, so it can be said that he is the best object to be regarded as a puppet.

Clovis is not interested in politics, but his wisdom is definitely above the level of ordinary people. This is fully proven by the fact that Jeremiah is not even a henchman of Clovis.

[What a contradictory person, am I overestimating his intelligence, or did he have a different purpose in the first place?] 】

"What are you doing again?" At this moment, C.C's voice rang in his ears.

Kamiyu, who raised her head, saw the green-haired girl in front of her, and pulled out the chair across the table and sat down.

"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly found a little bit worth thinking about." Kamiyu smiled slightly.

Jeremiah's personal purpose isn't a big deal, at least not yet.

"What's the matter?"

"It's just boring, so I'm going to look around." C.C rested his hand on his chin and turned his head to look out the window.

"Ale? It's weird. Don't you claim that as long as you have a Pisa, you can eat and sleep all day long, and you can eat and eat when you sleep? ”

"This kind of small place, can it be called pizza? This is simply a blasphemy against Pisa" Looking at Kamiyu's smiling eyes, C.C did not make a direct counterattack.

[Isn't it denied in the second half? Kamiyu smiled helplessly.

"Your dedication to Pizza is truly impressive. However, "I looked at the girl in front of me seriously.

"The last time I saw you dressed like this was 8 years ago."

At this time, C.C was wearing a white uniform of the pro-guard, but this time it was more suitable than eight years ago.

"Uniform control?" C.C just raised the corners of his eyes and asked in a playful tone.

"Oh no, is my interest exposed?"

"Huh?" Hearing this answer, C.C was slightly stunned, but then burst into a burst of laughter.

"It's fun to bully someone with a stubborn personality, but it's nice to be like you"

"Is it Lelouch?"

The laughter came to an abrupt end, and the room fell into oppressive silence.

"You"

"Oh no, Your Highness!" Just as C.C was about to speak, an anxious voice came through the communication.

"The Kanmon Bridge in the Kyushu area was destroyed, and in addition, the coastal area was invaded by a large number of raiding landing ships from the direction of the Chinese Federation! The Commander asks His Highness to evacuate here as soon as possible."
