....Ringg.....
The bell signaling the end of class rang.
Lelouch followed Noah who walked out of the classroom before arriving at the quiet academy garden. The atmosphere around them was quite calm, with the sound of birds chirping and a gentle breeze that made the day feel comfortable. Lelouch looked serious, and he immediately reminded Noah about the research materials he promised.
"Noah, where are the research materials you promised?" Lelouch asked, looking seriously at Noah.
"Don't rush, I always bring them, by the way, why don't I just take you to the Kuro no Kishidan headquarters !?" Even though Noah asked, he had actually decided to go regardless of whether Lelouch agreed or not.
"What do you want to do again?" Lelouch asked warily, he never forgot that even though Noah always smiled gently, Noah was actually not a good person, he didn't know what bad thoughts Noah had.
"Don't be too wary, I just want to look around, even if you don't agree, I can go there myself" Noah said with a thin smile.
"Just do whatever you want" Lelouch said helplessly, he couldn't stop Noah, so he might as well take him so he could keep an eye on him and reduce unnecessary trouble.
"Then wait a moment" Noah said before disappearing and reappearing in his room.
"C.C, I'm going to the Kuro no Kishidan headquarters with Lelouch, would you like to come?" Noah asked C.C who was lying on the bed.
C.C is currently wearing a long, loose white shirt.
"Sure, wait a minute" C.C replied before taking off her clothes without caring that Noah was still here.
Noah felt a little surprised by C.C's actions, but didn't look away and stared at C.C's sexy body honestly. "Eh, C.C, are you sure you want to change clothes here?" he asked.
C.C just glanced at him with a mysterious smile.
"There's nothing to worry about. We already know each other quite well," she replied while looking for new clothes in the closet.
"Okay, I just want to make sure you're comfortable," he said while tidying up the things around him.
After a while, C.C wore new clothes that were simpler but still radiated charm.
"How is it? Ready to go?" She asked, as if there was nothing strange from the previous incident.
"Yes, of course," Noah replied with a smile and held C.C's soft hand.
...
"Zero, who are they? Are they new members?" Ohgi asked when he saw Zero coming with two strangers. This was Zero's first time coming to the base with someone else, so it was natural for him to be curious.
"No, they just delivered some important things," Zero said without explaining what was being delivered, because the corpse of a supernatural creature was important, so the less people knew the better.
"But are they trustworthy, what if they leak the location of our base?" Ohgi was worried that Noah and CC would leak the location of their base because they were not members of Kuro no Kishidan, moreover they were not Eleven.
"You can be sure they won't, I guarantee it" Zero's answer immediately calmed Ohgi's worries.
Noah looked around curiously. The Kuto ni Kishidan base was bigger than he expected.
"Zero, Rakshata has something to talk about..."
Kallen's voice was heard as she entered the room, but Kallen's words stopped midway when she saw a familiar figure that shouldn't be here which surprised her.
"Yo... Kallen, it looks like your health is fine" Noah greeted Kallen jokingly.
"Sen..Noah-sensei, why are you here?" Kallen asked in surprise while looking at Zero asking for an explanation.
"You don't need to worry, I won't tell anyone about you being a terrorist, Kozuki Kallen, right?.." Noah said with a gentle smile like he usually did in class when teaching.
"How do you know the name Kozuki Kallen?" Kallen asked while observing Noah carefully.
"Don't pay attention to this detail," Noah said while patting Kallen's shoulder.
"By the way, Zero Rakshata has something to talk to you about" Kallen said while trying not to care about Noah's presence. She was sure that since Zero brought him here, it meant that he could be trusted.
"Then Noah, let's meet Rakshata, the scientist I was talking about," Zero said before leading the way to the Knightmare hangar.
Rakshata usually spent her days in the hangar or in her research room, so it was easy to find her.
Entering the hangar, Noah saw a tall brown-skinned woman with light blonde hair standing in front of the Guren Mk-II and taking notes.
"Zero, I want you to prepare some materials to repair Guren" Rakshata said when she saw Zero coming.
"Leave that aside for now, Rakshata, I have more important things for you to do," Zero said, interrupting Rakshata.
"What important thing could be more important than improving Guren's performance?" Rakshata asked while raising her eyebrows.
"Aren't you interested in supernatural powers?" Zero asked.
"Oh? What's wrong?" Rakshata asked curiously about Zero's topic.
"It's better if he explains it to you directly," Zero said while pointing at Noah behind him.
It was only then that Rakshata noticed two strangers behind Zero. It wasn't that she ignored them, but before that she was only thinking about Guren's improvement.
"Who is this?" Rakshata asked Zero.
"Hello Rakshata, my name is Noah Vermilion, an ordinary teacher" Noah introduced himself.
"Ordinary teacher?" Rakshata asked confused by Noah's introduction.
"Don't pay attention to these details, oh by the way, Rakshata, I heard you are a rival with Earl pudding? (Ps: Lloyd's nickname that Rakshata often uses)"
Noah asked while observing Rakshata.
"That's right, So does this question have anything to do with the Supernatural power that Zero said?" Rakshata asked in confusion.
"Of course, because the Vampire in the previous battle was his creation" Noah said lightly.
"Impossible, how can Earl pudding suddenly create such things" Rakshata denied, because she didn't think that Lloyd could create things like Vampires suddenly.
"Of course it was impossible before because there were no research materials, but what if someone provided the research materials?"
Rakshata was silent for a moment, considering the words that had just been spoken. "You mean, if someone provided the materials needed for the research, then it is possible for Earl Pudding to create something unexpected? But who would provide the materials? And for what purpose?"
A moment later she turned her gaze to Noah as if realizing something.
"Could it be you?" Rakshata asked in surprise.
"Clever... I will provide similar research materials, I want to see what kind of results you will produce as a rival to Lloyd" Noah said as he took out a human corpse from the storage space.
Rakshata was surprised when she saw Noah produce a corpse out of thin air, but thinking that he had research materials on supernatural beings, it was no wonder that he also had supernatural powers.
"This corpse has the bloodline of a werewolf, you can use it as you wish. But there is only one corpse like this, so it is better to use it wisely." Noah explained to Rakshata about the corpse.
Hearing this, Rakshata immediately approached the corpse and looked at it from all sides carefully.
Noah and C.C left without disturbing Rakshata who was focusing on the werewolf corpse.
