Chapitre 102: Battle of Narita (1)
The Kuro no Kishidan, or "Black Knights," are indeed a symbol of protection for the unarmed and marginalized. After their first appearance at Lake Kawaguchi, they have continued to appear in various locations to fight injustice and help people in need. With their extraordinary courage and fighting skills, they have become a beacon of hope for many who are trapped in difficult situations.
Their mission is not only to fight, but also to spread the message of the need to protect the weak and uphold justice. Their mysterious appearance and their fighting skills have made them legendary among the people. With each battle they face, the Black Knights become more and more well-known and respected, both by friend and foe alike.
Under the soft light of the full moon, Lelouch sits at an old wooden table, surrounded by stacks of application letters. Each sheet of paper radiates the hopes and wishes of many who wish to join the Black Knights, a group that is now increasingly well-known and feared.
Lelouch examines each letter carefully. Some of them come from those who feel trapped in a monotonous life and want to take part in a greater struggle. The others were people who had lost everything, and saw the Black Clover as a hope for revenge against the system that oppressed them.
One of the letters caught his attention. The writing was neat and full of enthusiasm. The information clearly stated that he was a Britannian and there was also a photo of him.
"Oh? A Britannian?"
Lelouch continued to read the information carefully. The Britannian who applied to join was a reporter who always had the desire to witness and write down events that could affect the world. He was Dithart Ried, who in the original work became the head of intelligence for the Black Clover despite being a Britannian.
Since Zero's appearance, he had become very interested and always looked for information about him and hoped to be able to witness and write down what changes Zero would make. Even though he was a Britannian, he was not a patriot, he only cared about his desire to write down events that would shock the world.
It could be said that he was a qualified reporter. After Zero formed the Black Clover and recruited new members, he did not hesitate to apply to join.
Carefully, Lelouch strategizes to select new members.
....
In the hangar of the Kuro no Kishidan headquarters, the senior members of the Kuro no Kishidan gather in front of the red Knightmare.
After their struggle so far, they finally get support from Kyoto. Kyoto gives Kuro no Kishidan the latest type of Knightmare as a test whether they are worthy of Kyoto's investment.
"Ohgi, Inoue and the others seem very happy"
Zero's voice is heard before Zero's figure appears in front of Kallen who is still admiring the Knightmare.
"Kyoto supports some rebel forces, right?" Zero asks.
"Yes, that means we are supported by them..." Kallen says excitedly.
"No, you're wrong, Kallen. This is just a test"
Zero denies Kallen's words.
"Even so, this is still amazing!"
Kallen says optimistically without caring that they actually haven't been supported by Kyoto.
"Very optimistic"
Zero says while throwing the Guren MK-II Key to Kallen.
"Guren MK-II, Kallen, that Knightmare is yours."
Zero entrusted the new Knightmare to Kallen.
"Me? But there are still many other members! Also, shouldn't you, as the leader, be the one piloting Guren."
Kallen asked hesitantly.
"You are the ace pilot, I am the commander, so Guren is more suitable for you to use and you have a reason to fight"
Zero said with full confidence in Kallen's piloting skills.
"Okay, I will definitely use Guren well" Kallen seriously.
.....
The warm sun shone on the Narita mountains creating a peaceful and calming atmosphere. Its soft light touched the mountain peaks, giving a beautiful golden nuance.
The green trees glistened, and the fresh air filled the lungs, making every step feel lighter. Unfortunately, the peace of Mount Narita was about to disappear because of the arrival of uninvited guests.
Currently, Zero and Kuro no Kishidan were walking on the mountainside. The reason why they came here was because Zero got information from Dithart, a Britannia who had just joined the Kuro no Kishidan that today Cornelia would surround and annihilate the Japanese Liberation Front.
The Narita Mountains are where the headquarters of the Japanese Liberation Front is located, which is the largest rebel force in Japan.
Zero invited all members of Kuro no Kishidan to come here without telling the real reason because he knew that if they knew that Cornelia's army would surround this place, he was sure that many of them would refuse especially the new members who had just joined.
Zero intended to use this battle to train the new members of Kuro no Kishidan, so Zero planned to cut off their own retreat route so that every new member of Kuro no Kishidan would fight with their lives. When they were fighting in a life and death situation they would definitely use all their strength to survive.
As soon as they reached the top of the mountain, Zero ordered them to plant penetrating electrodes on the side of the mountain that the Britannia army would likely pass through.
...
"So why did you suddenly invite me here?" C.C asked Noah beside her.
Currently Noah and C.C were in Narita city and were walking towards the evacuation site carried out by the Britannia military before they attacked the Japanese Liberation Front headquarters.
"Well, because my student's father is currently in the evacuation site and if I don't come to save him, he might die"
Noah said explaining his reason. Even though Noah is not a good person who has a noble desire to become a hero, at least he will not let the people around him suffer.
Even though Noah's relationship with the student council members is only as a teacher and student, he still has to help if something happens.

"Your student?, is it necessary to come all the way here just to save a student's father?. Since when did you two get along so well. Is she a woman?" C.C asked with a little sarcasm in her voice.
Noah paused for a moment, looked at C.C. seriously and said. "We don't have that kind of closeness"
C.C. raised her eyebrows, looking skeptical. "I didn't expect you to care about someone who is just an acquaintance".
Noah didn't continue to explain because he also knew that C.C.'s skepticism was just a joke. Noah held C.C's hand to convey his feelings.
Noah felt warmth as he held C.C.'s hand, as if the world around them faded away and it was just the two of them. Though C.C.'s skepticism often came across as a joke, Noah knew that beneath it was a vulnerability she wanted to protect.
Because of her past experiences, before meeting Noah, C.C had closed her heart and her personality had become withdrawn.
They walked into the distance, past trees whispering in the wind, along a path that seemed to have no end.
As they talked about dreams and hopes, Noah could feel his bond with C.C. deepening.
After Noah met Sherly's father, he immediately change him memory a little and moved him away from Narita.
.....
Meanwhile at the foot of Mount Narita, Cornelia's troops gathered and awaited Cornelia's orders.
"Governor General, it's time"
Guildford reminded Cornelia who was currently preparing in her cockpit that the battle operation was ready to begin.
"Alright...Then, ... operation start!" Cornelia ordered as she shot off into the distance with her Knightmare.
Cornelia's Knightmare was Gloucester, a specially modified variant of Sutherland.
"Yes, Your highness!"
With Cornelia's order, the Britannia Army immediately surrounded Mount Narita. More than 100 fifth-generation knightmares, Sutherland climbed the mountain from all sides and military vehicles moved slowly. Currently, the entire Mount Narita was covered by Britannia soldiers without any gaps that could allow someone to escape.
Seeing more than 100 Knightmares surrounding them, the leaders of the Japanese Liberation Front felt anxious. But there was nothing they could do but fight desperately.
"Guren, use radiation waves on penetration electrode number 3"
At the same time, seeing the Britannia troops starting to climb the mountain, Zero immediately ordered Kallen to activate the radiation waves on Guren's right arm that was shaped like a claw and channeled them to penetration electrode number 3.
...Rumble...
Accompanied by a loud rumble, when the penetration electrode was activated with a wave radiation, the underground river in Mount Narita immediately erupted and caused a landslide down the mountainside towards where the Britannia troops were gathered.
"What's happening..."
"Move to higher ground immediately..."
"Argh..."
In just a short time, the Britannia soldiers on one side of the mountain were wiped out.
The landslide did not stop and continued down the mountainside towards the city of Narita below and caused the city to fall apart.
