Chapter 773: A Prince with the Same Fate

In order to escape from the shadow of his father┉┉

"┉During this time, many people in the Free City speculated about my identity, thinking that I was a member of some mysterious family or a royal family, and even some more outrageous identities. ”

Crossside nodded, "But it's all wrong." ”

"It's not all wrong┉┉" Lelouch shrugged his shoulders and said in a helpless tone: "It's barely half right." ”

"You said you wanted to escape from your father's shadow, so you left your family with your sister?"

"It's better that I was banished by my father than leaving. Lelouch spoke quietly, but it also reached the ears of some people with a heart.

Among the countless scandals in the Free City, the identity of Lelouch Lampeluki, the president of the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce, is also a very hot topic, at least many forces and intelligence dealers are investigating the identities of Lelouch and Buyani, but in the end, in addition to chasing the wind and shadows, there are some unreliable rumors, and only one of these unreliable rumors is the most interesting, that is, the two siblings are descendants of the royal family of the once destroyed Perras Empire.

The Perras Empire is a glorious symbol of the establishment of the overlord era, at the end of the destruction of the Perras Empire, the royal family at that time transferred a great wealth of the country in order to make a comeback, this wealth in addition to the astronomical amount of money There are countless lost forbidden knowledge, but two thousand years have passed The descendants of the Perras Empire have not appeared in the eyes of the world, and this great wealth has become a seemingly eternal secret.

In the two thousand years since the fall of the Perras Empire, I don't know how many adventurers and mercenaries have tried to find the vast wealth left behind by the empire, but God knows where the royal family members hid this wealth, and rumors are rife on the mainland, some say that the royal family has transported the wealth to the Arnold Mountains. In the mysterious place that created the legend of the overlord, there is also news that the wealth was buried with the overlord Garseric, and there are also rumors that the wealth of the Perras Empire has long been divided up by the three major forces of the Holy Capital, the Holy See and the Sage Tower at that time, and the news released now is just a cover-up.

However, the appearance of Lelouch and the spread of rumors have attracted the attention of many well-intentioned people, at least in the eyes of many people, Lelouch is a minor sixteen or seventeen-year-old child can actually hold goods worth five or six billion lien, take his sister and some guards to the free city to establish his own castle. Where did his wealth come from?

Five or six billion lien is not a small amount, and even Lawrence, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce who is so rich, cannot casually throw five billion for his son to use.

The huge wealth, the identity of unknown origin, the temperament displayed between conversations, and everything that has been established in the free city in a short period of time as if it were a miracle, all show that the identity behind Lelouch must have a huge force, and this huge force obviously exceeds any country and organization imaginable on the continent today, and all the information is connected together to point to Lelouch's identity to the royal descendants of the Perras Empire, perhaps only by thinking about it in this way can everything be explained.

If the two siblings, Lelouch and Buyani, are really descendants of the Perras Empire. Then they must also know the whereabouts of the wealth transferred by the empire, and even if they don't know the exact location, they should know the clues. But if the two are really the royal descendants of the Perras Empire, how much heritage the descendants of the royal family who have been silent for two thousand years have accumulated is also terrifying.

However, when Lelouch said that he had been banished, some people couldn't help but start thinking about it.

Crossed's expression remained unchanged, and he was not shaken by the fact that Lelouch was banished: "Banishment? I have to say that your father is really generous, and can give you more than five billion rien to banish you, not so much banishment as a disguised test of you." ”

Lelouch had to admire the leapfrog thinking of the black dragon prince, he was half wrong but half right. And the right half also brought back some bad memories of his own: "The trial~ not as good as you think, my sister and I lost our mother when we were six years old. Then I was banished by my father, and for ten years I hated my father, thinking that he had abandoned us, that he had indulged our mother's murderer┉┉"

"Did you lose your mother when you were a child?"

"yes. Lelouch nodded and sighed, "But I didn't know one thing until not long ago, the reason why my father exiled me and my sister was to protect us, because in my heart, as the supreme ruler, my father also has fear. Do you believe that we were banished after losing our mother to save me and my sister?"

Crossside narrowed his eyes slightly, "But at least you have a father who loves you well, don't you?"

"Love, do you think this is love, and my sister and I were banished when we were young, and we almost died, and then, in the middle of his words, Lelouch paused and did not speak.

Because if you continue to talk about it, it is something that does not belong to this world, and you can't reveal too much news that does not belong to this world. You can't reveal too much of your secrets.

Crossset could feel that Lelouch was not lying, and that no matter how much humans hide when they lie, the subconscious mind reveals a little bit of incongruity, which is an act that the human brain cannot control. As a black dragon who has lived for a long time, after seeing too many people and things, just by relying on the changes in the other party's facial expressions, even the actor with the best acting skills in front of him can't deceive himself.

"But there's no denying that your father didn't want you to die in the end, did he? ”

Crosed stared at Lelouch and his tone became subtle: "You are already luckier than many people in this world. ”

"Maybe┉┉" Lelouch put down the knife and fork in his hand and sighed: "That's why I am eager to prove myself, I can surpass his creation, I will let my heirs not have to be in the turbulence, and I will not let my loved ones be threatened with death." ”

A child who is very similar to himself, very similar, has the same painful childhood, is extremely dissatisfied with his father, and is also eager to prove that he is worth more than his father.

Crossside smiled slightly, and his different-colored eyes stared at Lelouch and Buyani with a sneering look: "But you are luckier than me, at least your father is really eager to protect you, at least your sister trusts you silently, and I have no one in this world who can be absolutely trusted, not even someone who needs to be protected." ”

"Crossside!

"Like you, Lelouch Lampeluki, an being abandoned by his father since childhood, growing up in pain and despair, the only difference is that I have no sister to protect, only one sister who is equally hated. ”

Lelouch looked at Closed in disbelief, listening to what the black dragon prince said, even Alyssa stared at one of the most prominent businessmen in the free city in surprise for a while, although he already knew some of Closed's true identity, but he didn't expect that as a transcendent existence, it was not as easy as imagined, they also had pain, the same troubles, and some unknown tragic past and life.

Before coming to Free City, he learned the news from Yalin's mouth that Clossard, as the prince of the black dragon, was at odds with his father, and here Lelouch deliberately said this, in addition to stimulating Clossard to find out more news from his mouth, another reason was also his truest mood.

Crossside denies his father Victor's idea, wants to prove that he is stronger than his father in the Free City, and he also denies his father's idea, wants to ignite the fire of overthrowing the empire in District 11, and also grows up in adversity, also conceals his true identity, and also challenges his father who is almost out of reach as an avenger.

"I'm sorry~ Lord Closed, for saying so many things that annoy you. Lelouch stood up and apologized solemnly to Crossside.

"It doesn't matter, it's better for me. ”

Crossside smiled slyly: "At least this means that I don't have half of my blood relatives, and it means that I don't have any weaknesses that others can find except for myself." ”

This cold and heartless sentence suddenly made the eavesdroppers around feel like they had fallen into an ice cave, as long as people have a normal heart, they will crave warmth, even the most brutal gang leader will occasionally show a gentle smile when he sees his lover and children, but Clossed seems to have no such feelings, or is almost proud that he does not have these feelings.

Lu Luxiu's heart couldn't help but tighten, just as His Royal Highness the Black Dragon Prince said, no one but himself could find a loophole to defeat him from anywhere else.

"On the contrary, Lord Lelouch, as I said before, protect your sister, the more you love her and the more you desire to protect her, the more she will become your greatest weakness. ”

After saying this, Clossard got up gracefully and retired for a while, leaving Lelouch to sit in place with a cold expression, his sister is the biggest loophole? maybe, but at least now his sister is in an absolutely safe place, and now this 'sister' is not an existence that ordinary people can covet, even if she is not guarded by herself.

"Taught, Lord Clossed. Lelouch said silently in a voice that he could barely hear. (To be continued.) )
