It was a demand, not a question, and Sirzechs could see the resignation in the Knight's eyes.
With a sigh, Lelouch shifted so he was leaning his back against the pillow. "Sure, why not." Lelouch could see the serious look in the redhead's eyes. "I assume you're Rias' brother?" The family resemblance was quite obvious.
Sirzechs nodded, a small smile gracing his lips as he thought of his beloved little sister. "Indeed." Wiping his expression clean, he got straight to the point.
"But that's not why I'm here." Leaning forward, Sirzechs clasped his hands in front of his chin and stared pointedly at the boy's face. "Do the names 'Zero, the Man of Miracles' or 'Demon Emperor' mean anything to you?"
Lelouch could not hide the shock in his eyes as he stared at Rias' brother. "How do you know those names?" His body felt tense as he prepared for the worst, but Sirzechs didn't move.
Sirzechs narrowed his eyes as the spark of recognition and shock entered Lelouch's eyes. "So you are him." Forestalling any response, the Satan held up his hand and leaned back.
"I'm not going to hurt you, I just have some questions." With a light smile, he allowed his power to flicker just enough to put pressure on the boy in the hospital bed. "I trust you will be honest with me?"
Lelouch choked as for a split second he couldn't breathe, the very air filled with power. Breathing deeply once the air returned to normal, Lelouch could feel his entire body coated with sweat.
"Yes, of course." Lelouch may not be able to die due to the Code, but he really didn't want to see what someone like the monster before him could do even if death wasn't an option.
"Good." With that, Sirzechs lounged in the chair with one hand on his cheek as he stared at the boy. "To answer your question, my friend was messing around with one of his experiments and gained insight into another world through the Dimensional Gap." Sirzechs leaned back slightly and reconsidered.
"Or was it part of the Dimensional Gap?" The Satan hummed in thought before shrugging. "Either way, this world looked quite different from anything he'd ever seen, it looked almost like a temple in the sky." Repositioning his gaze back onto Lelouch, he noticed the boy paying very close attention.
"In that world, he witnessed a self-professed man of miracles command a Deity and erase his own father and mother from existence." A chuckle escaped Sirzechs lips.
"Naturally, he shared this information with us and, with his experiment, continued observing this anomaly for as long as he could." Leaning forward with a grin, Sirzechs stared. "He witnessed the man of miracles conquer his world as the Demon Emperor using his powers."
"I see." Lelouch paled as he stared at the Satan watching him from his bedside. "I assume you're wondering how I ended up in this world then?"
Sirzechs nodded solemnly, pleased the young man before him wasn't playing the fool. "We saw you die, after that we ultimately decided to stop observing your world." Sirzechs chuckled as he shrugged absently.
"My comrade lost interest after the most interesting man in the world chose to commit an elaborate suicide." Staring down the young man who'd conducted his own death, Sirzechs gave a lopsided smirk. "Though it was quite the spectacle." Serafall had been greatly inspired by the drama and developed many new ideas for her show.
The dramatic gesturing villain that recently appeared in Magical Girl Levia-tan was almost certainly Lelouch's influence, though Sirzechs wasn't certain whether Serafall had realized the man himself was in there world. Which did bring things back around to the reason Sirzechs was here.
"Do you have any designs on the human world?" Sirzechs asked seriously, staring down the man who'd once conquered another world.
Lelouch chuckled and shook his head. "No, I have no interest in ruling anything." The former Emperor then stared dead on at the Satan interrogating him.
"As for how I ended up here, it's… quite a story." He shivered slightly, remembering the enormous red dragon from the reawakened memories. "One I only learned recently myself when I spoke with the one who dragged me here."
Sirzechs leaned forward. "Who was it?" It's possible it could have been the will of Him, despite His death Sirzechs still firmly believed He had some form of influence on the world given the fact Sacred Gears still functioned with His blessings.
"Does the name Ophis mean anything to you?" Lelouch asked, having to resist a smirk when he saw Sirzechs pale as white as he'd been earlier. "Apparently she saw me use my powers and wanted me to use them on Great Red to make the Dragon 'go away' in her words." Lelouch shivered as he remembered the sheer size of that monstrous creature.
Sirzechs gaped as he stared at the young man before him. "Do you still have that power?" He closed his eyes and leaned back, thinking things through quickly.
Lelouch sighed, having expected such a question. "Would you believe me if I said no?" That was the problem when people became aware of his Geass.
When people learned he could subvert their free will so easily, he became instantly distrusted. Even if he explained the limitations, the fact remained people would still have to trust he was being honest about them.
Sirzechs raised an eyebrow and opened his eyes, staring at the young man dead on. "Interesting answer." He leaned forward, balancing his chin on his palms. "I take it that means you genuinely don't have it or at the very least you can't use it the way you used to."
A snicker escaped Lelouch's lips. "Second one." He admitted honestly, knowing there's no point in lying to the Devil before him. "I need more magical power than the target in order to have any effect and, well." Lelouch shrugged and gestured at himself. "As you can tell, I don't have nearly as much magical power as I'd need to actually do as she asked."
"That's the second time you called the Dragon God she." Sirzechs noted curiously. "I suppose that must be the form Ophis is using then.
