"Your Majesty"

"Has his plan failed?"

"It's still a work in progress, but the cosmic side has confirmed the failure."

"Expected results"

The emperor who said this was in a very conflicted mood.

It was out of anger at V.V's assertion again, gloating over the failure of V.V's plan, and a hint of disappointment at the failure of the plan. Fundamentally, V.V did exactly what he wanted. But the deception of acting behind his own back made him hate.

"Won't he give up?" The Emperor asked.

"Yes. It's come to this point, and it's impossible to stop anyway. The man dressed in mystical religious attire replied respectfully.

"Oh, it's really sad," he sighed deeply.

It is a sad thing to lose several beings with whom you have the closest blood relationship in a single day, whether the relationship is intimate or not

Holding the knight's badge in his hand, Suzaku sat beside Yuphemia's hospital bed.

The doctor who came out of the operating room brought desperate news.

Ideals are destroyed, and beloved ones are about to leave. In an instant, everything that can be lost seems to have left him.

Tearing heartache

Revenge is not right, killing and killing will only add more hatred.

But

The unstoppable killing intent in his heart, the depression of many years is finally about to reach a critical point, and he urgently needs an outlet now.

"The heart rate is attenuated, but consciousness is still not restored"

At this moment, a group of paramedics barged in, and after examining Yufemia's body monitoring equipment, they began to disassemble the medical bed.

"What are you guys doing here!?" Suzaku stood up violently.

"The infusion set cannot be removed, and the oxygen is portable"

"Here's a guy, remove the fixing frame of the medical bed and replace it with a sliding wheel!"

However, this group of people who suddenly broke in seemed to treat Suzaku as air, and you were doing your own thing.

"Let it go! This is the hospital bed of Her Royal Highness Princess Yufemia! ”

Grabbing one of the doctors by the collar and punching him in the face.

'Bang~'

How could the emaciated doctor withstand the inhuman force of Suzaku, and flew out of the shackle directly and smashed into a medical rack.

The burst of anger was like a wounded beast, causing everyone to involuntarily stop their movements and retreat to the wall in fear.

"Stop, Suzaku."

The stalemate didn't last long, and Lloyd's voice came from the door.

"Dr. Lloyd!? What the hell is going on? ”

"This is the order of His Highness Kamiyu."

As he spoke, Lloyd turned to look at the group of medical staff.

"You go on."

The paramedic who received the order hesitated for a moment and then began the dismantling work again.

"His Highness Kamiyu's orders?"

"His Highness is not willing to give up on treatment, but it is too far away from Cambodia to have time. So, it is now necessary to transfer Her Highness Yuphemia to the cryo-dormant pod on top of Lamus. As soon as the freezer is activated, Lamus will depart for Cambodia. ”

"Can it be cured!?"

Suzaku grabbed Lloyd's shoulders excitedly, and he was unwilling to give up any little hope at this time, this is the so-called life-saving straw psychology.

"I don't know about this." Lloyd shook his head.

He didn't want to hit Suzaku, but he didn't want to lie either. Who doesn't understand the truth that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment?

"However, it is always good to have hope."

As soon as he finished speaking, Suzaku turned and rushed to Yuphemia's hospital bed.

"Hey~ It's stuck here! Come personally"

"Get out of the way!"

Grabbing the outer edge of the hospital bed with both hands, the muscles of the arms bulged, and the steel bars on the welded ground made a tearing sound.

'Bang~'

Finally, with a bang, the bed separated from the ground.

At this moment, the boy was out of the human realm in the eyes of everyone.

"What a mess." Lloyd's sigh spoke for everyone.

"What are you doing? Time is of the essence! Fast!! ”

"Yes!"

'Bang Dang~'

The door was slammed shut.

I took off my helmet, which seemed to be about to suffocate, and rushed into the bathroom impatiently.

'Whoa~~'

Tap water comes out of the tap.

Tremblingly, he grabbed the tip of his glove index finger and pulled it outward, but his arm did not obey him as if it was not his own, and even such a simple act of taking off his gloves failed several times.

Finally, he slammed his fist into the mirror in front of him, and the smooth mirror surface was suddenly full of cracks like cobwebs.

"Drink, drink, drink"

He took a long breath several times, then bit the fingertip of the glove into his mouth and pulled it off violently.

The white hands were washed by the water, showing an inexplicable blood color, which could not be washed away no matter what.

Not a psychopath, nor is he a cold-blooded person who has been trained since childhood to take life as a mustard. Seeing that nearly 100,000 people in the venue died because of his own Geass, and all of this was led by himself, it was impossible to say that he was fearless.

I'm still too naïve.

He originally thought that it would be enough to let the Japanese riot, and then the Black Knights would stand up and raise their arms in due time

'Dangdang~'

“Zero。”

Hearing a knock on the door, Lelouch hurriedly put on his helmet.

"Come in."

Walking in was the demon's whisperer.

"What the hell is going on with the second shot!?" Lelouch lowered his voice and asked

"What second shot!?"

"Don't play dumb with me, what's the deal with the shot that hit Euphemia!? You know how passive this makes our situation become, and if someone is held accountable afterwards, it will cause destabilization and division within the group! "Of course, these are excuses. What Lelouch really wanted to do was shoot him in the head.

If he could, Lelouch wanted to grab him by the hair and then put a gun directly at the man's head to question him in a rough way. Because only in this way can he vent the strong resentment in his heart. It's a pity that reason keeps reminding him that he can't do this, not only because now is not the time to do so. What's more, even if he has a gun, he is confident that he can subdue the other party.

"I didn't shoot the second shot!" Ito Yakumo pushed Lelouch away.

"Listen, I'm a killer, a regime's killer. I have dealt with this kind of incident many times before and after the occupation of Japan, and I will never do anything superfluous. He pointed to his head.

"Killer is a profession in which brain power is as important as force, if not more important than force. Those who can only kill people with brute force are only worthy of being called thugs! ”

"So, you're saying that there were other people at the scene who came to assassinate Yuphimia with other motives?"

"Maybe it's for you."

Because of Euphemia's relationship with Lelouch, it is difficult to tell from the trajectory who this shot is aimed at.

"Who the hell is it!"

The face under the mask was full of hideousness.

Although his plans would ruin Yuphimia's reputation, he never thought of taking Yuphemia's life. As long as she is alive, time will make everything fade away. What's more, her two powerful imperial brothers must have a way to get rid of her involvement.

Hypocrisy?

Lelouch never denied his hypocrisy. Yes to Xia Li, yes to Kalian, yes to Mi Lei, but this is the only bottom line in his heart, the only little conscience left to stick to.

"Now is not the time to care about this!" Ito Yakumo interrupted Lelouch's deep study.

"Listen, you now bear the lives and hopes of thousands of people behind you."

"Before that, I had killed nearly 100,000 innocent people."

"They died for the sake of righteousness!" Ito Yakumo interrupted Lelouch's self-deprecation.

"Things have come to this point, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of you, you must lead all the Japanese people through it. If you want to back down now and say a 'no'. ”

There is determination in the words.

"Kill me?" Lelouch laughed.

"It's a method, Zero is just a codename, anyone can do it."

"And then let an unprepared pseudocreature lead thousands of Japanese to death?"

"Wouldn't the result be different compared to a Zero who has lost his fighting spirit?" There was no hint of a smile in Ito Yakumo's eyes.

"Yes, the result is the same," Lelouch laughed to himself.

"I had already thought that this would be the result when I was planning it."

"You are wavering because of the weakness of human nature, and there is nothing to blame for that. However, if you want to be king, you have to abandon these. ”

Ito Yakumo deeply understands the pain of going through this process and the price it takes. When he became a killer, he went through everything, but if he wanted to become a king, he had to pay a lot more.

'Da Da Da~~'

There was another knock on the door.

"Zero, it's time!"

Outside the door, Diethardt's steady voice was filled with irrepressible maneuvering.

The moment remembered by history is about to be revealed in front of him, and the 100,000 people who died will be remembered by the world as a sacrifice of history.

"So, are you still willing to die with me?"

Lelouch, who stood up and walked to the door, suddenly spoke.

"Death has always been my destination. But," Ito Yakumo slowly followed.

"Please get it perfect as soon as possible."

"A riot broke out in the special administrative zone of Fuji, and 74,211 people from the 11 wards died on the spot, not counting the wounded, and 127 people died in the Imperial Army. The casualties of the Black Knights' attack have not yet been counted. Above. ”

"Lelouch" C.C didn't expect that Lelouch would be able to do this, and he was stunned for a while.

"Can Musashi sail in his current state? Above. Musashi asked, turning his head.

"Yes." The automaton behind him nodded and replied, "Just readjust the cycle of the energy circuit." ”

"So," Musashi said, turning to the space station's automaton in a very formal tone.

"Based on Tokyo time, at 14:43 today, it was confirmed that we had received an order from Kamiyu-sama, and the Musashi, the first-generation multi-dimensional battleship of Yugutra Hill, officially set sail at 00:00 a.m. the next day. Above. ”

"Confirm that the command is credible, Mariana Space Station, agree to sail. Above. ”
