Chương 93: The calm before the storm
"Are you satisfied?"
Clovis said calmly while leaning on the throne without caring about the firearms being pointed at him.
"Yes, that's enough"
Lelouch walked over to Clovis while taking off his helmet.
Should I dance, sing or play chess?" Clovis asked calmly while watching the people disguised as Britannian soldiers approaching.
"What nostalgia, don't you remember that we used to often play chess. Of course I always won?"
Lelouch said as he walked slowly.
"What?"
Clovis asked confused.
"Remember? At the Aries Villa?"
Lelouch said with a nostalgic tone.
"Who are you?"
Clovis asked, frowning.
"Long time no see, Nii-san"
when Lelouch came out of the shadows, Clovis immediately saw Lelouch's appearance and was shocked because he didn't expect his younger brother who was sent to Japan seven years ago to still be alive.
"Lelouch?, but I thought you..."
"Is dead?" Lelouch said interrupting Clovis.
Clovis thought that Lelouch had died as a result of the war seven years ago, currently in Britannia no one knows the fact that Lelouch and Nunnaly are still alive except for the Ashford family because Lelouch and Nunnaly have been living with new identities provided by the Ashford family.
The Ashford family were loyal subjects of her mother Marianne and were Marianne's supporters before she became imperial empress. Before becoming empress, Marianne was a Knight of the round table who was under the direct command of the Emperor of Britannia.
Lelouch and Clovis had a good relationship in the past, they often played together with Cornelia and Euphemia. So of course Clovis was surprised and happy to see Lelouch back.
"I'm back, Your Highness, and I'm ready to change everything" Lelouch said with determination.
"I'm glad you're still alive, I heard you died during the attack on Japan. Why don't you come back with me" said Clovis without paying attention to the firearm that Lelouch was pointing at him.
"It seems you have forgotten why Nunnaly and I were used as tools"
Lelouch said sneering at Clovis' invitation.
Hearing Lelouch's words, Clovis was stunned for a moment before remembering why Lelouch was used as a tool of diplomacy.
Even though Marianne was previously a Knight of the Round Table and Empress, because she was born as a commoner, many people hated her in the emperor's harem, so after losing Marianne's protection, Lelouch and Nunnaly became their targets and became tools of diplomacy.
"Even though my mother's death was made out to be a terrorist attack, I know that you were the ones who killed her."
"Not me, I didn't do it" said Clovis hastily when he saw Lelouch's cold gaze.
"Then tell me, who killed her, in front of me no one can lie" Lelouch immediately activated his Geass.
Under the control of Geass, Clovis immediately told everything he knew, but he didn't know much and could only provide information that Schneizel and Cornelia knew something.
"That's all you know?"
After escaping Geass's control, Clovis screams in panic as Lelouch is about to shoot him.
"If that's all, then goodbye, nii-san. If I want to make a change then I have to get my hands dirty."
Lelouch said as he pulled the trigger on the firearm.
.....Banggggg....
Gunshots echoed in the silent throne room.
...
"Did you say!?, Clovis was killed?"
The sound of a woman's scream could be heard in the room of a mobile fortress.
A beautiful woman with long fuchsia colored hair that was left loose looked at a knight who was kneeling and reporting in front of her. The woman has lavender eyes and her natural pink lips are decorated with magenta lipstick. She wears an outfit with a burgundy color scheme with gold accents, a white robe with a dark interior, and high-heeled boots.
"Yes, Your Highness, he was killed by an unknown person in his mobile fortress while carrying out an action in Shinjuku.
Apart from that, it was reported that there was a strange phenomenon where time in Shinjuku had stopped for a while before returning to normal. When prince Clovis ordered his subordinates to investigate, he was killed by someone. It's possible that this person also has something to do with the mysterious phenomenon in Shinjuku."
Dalton, Cornelia's knight, answered.
"I see, I will meet His Majesty the Emperor now. Dalton will temporarily take command of the operation to exterminate the rebel troops in area 17," Cornelia ordered her knights before returning to Pendragon, the Capital of Britannia.
"Yes, Your Highness"
....
News of the death of Prince Clovis, who was the Governor of Area 11, had not been announced and the atmosphere in the Britannia residential district in Tokyo was still peaceful as usual.
The nobles still continued to maintain their luxurious lives by throwing parties or going to gamble in casinos while the students were still filled with joyful laughter on their faces without knowing that a terrible storm had begun to form.
and on the other hand, the resistance troops are still thinking about who the owner of the mysterious voice is. Everyone has their own activities and still lives their own life.
After Lelouch went to kill Prince Clovis, Noah and C.C came to a luxurious and spacious academy, which even had its own chapel and dormitory. This academy is Ashford Academy, where Lelouch attends school and lives with Nunnaly.
Ashford Academy was founded by the previously noble Ashford house, but due to Marianne's death, their noble status had declined. To avoid being targeted by Marianne's enemies, they voluntarily moved to area 11 and established an Academy for Britannians living in the Britannian residential area of area 11.
Even though many people came and went around the Academy, no one noticed the presence of Noah and C.C.
Noah and C.C walked in through the main gate without anyone noticing. After reading a reminder from a student using Geass, Noah immediately walked towards the principal's office.
The head of the Ashford academy is Ruben K. Ashford, grandfather of Milly Ashford and current head of the Ashford family. The reason Noah looked for him was to ask him to make a fake identity for him. Of course, what is called a request is to hypnotize him to create a fake identity. Even though Noah's Geass ability is different from Lelouch's, he has magic that has a similar effect.
During his time in the god-killing world previously, he had also learned some practical magic in addition to those required for battles and rituals.
Knock knock knock....
"Please come in"
Hearing a knock on the door, Ruben K. Ashford, who was handling various documents, immediately stopped his work.
When the door opened, Ruben saw two strangers entering his office, a young man with short red hair and a beautiful green-haired woman wearing strange clothes.
"Who are you?, I don't seem to know you." Ruben asked them.
"Oh? The head of the Ashford family sure is forgetful, didn't we just meet one year ago?" Noah said while implanting fake memories in Ruben, he didn't change his memories and just added some fake memories to him.
"Are you Noah Vermilion?, how are you?" Ruben asked as if remembering something.
"I'm fine, I might need your help to register a new identity, because I intend to stay here" said Noah.
"I see, no problem. By the way, how about you become a teacher at Ashford Academy?" Ruben asked.
"Whatever," said Noah.
"You can come straight to the academy and start tomorrow. Wait a moment, I will prepare a place to stay for you," said Ruben before calling someone.
"Milly, can you arrange a room for the new teacher right away?"
"New teacher?" A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
It turns out that the person Ruben contacted was Milly, his granddaughter. Even though Ruben is the principal, he hands over all academy matters to his granddaughter, Milly Ashford, who currently serves as student council president of the Ashford Academy.
"That's right, he will start teaching tomorrow, he is a friend that grandfather met by chance a year ago, grandfather owed him a favor at that time. Don't worry, he is more than good enough to be a teacher" Ruben explained in detail about Noah because he was worried that Milly would reject him when knowing that he only met Noah by chance before.
"I see, I'll prepare it right away," said Milly Ashford before hanging up the phone.
Knock...knock...knock....
After a while, the sound of knocking on the door was heard before a beautiful woman who had an extremely graceful and eye-catching figure entered the room. She has shoulder-length blonde hair, fair skin, blue eyes, and a curvy body wearing an Ashford academy uniform.
The reason Milly came in person was because she was curious about the new teacher her grandfather mentioned and also to guide the new teacher to her room.
"Milly, let me introduce myself, this is Noah Vermilion that I mentioned before and this woman is..." Only then did Ruben realize that he didn't know C.C's name yet, so he could only turn his gaze to Noah to ask.
"My name is Noah Vermilion and this is my friend, you can call her C.C., nice to meet you, Miss" Noah introduced himself with graceful noble etiquette.
"I'm also happy to meet you, Vermilion-sensei" seeing Noah's etiquette, Milly immediately answered with appropriate etiquette.
"You can call me Noah-sensei, or just Noah," said Noah.
Meanwhile C.C just nodded as a greeting.
"Noah-sensei, please come with me, I will take you to your room." Milly immediately led Noah to the room that had been provided.
Walking through the academy's hallways, Noah saw many students watching them curiously, Milly was very popular at the academy so many people were curious about the foreigner who was following Milly.
After a while they finally arrived at their destination, when Noah opened the door, a spacious and luxurious room immediately appeared in front of Noah. Although for Noah this room was simpler compared to the room he had before.
"Noah-sensei, this will be your residence, as for this woman, your room is next door," said Milly while pointing at C.C.'s room.
"No need, I'll stay with him. This room is enough for the two of us," said C.C, refusing the room provided for him by Milly because he wanted to observe Noah more closely.
"Oho..? So that's how it is.." said Milly with an interested expression as if she had guessed something.
Noah didn't care about what was going on in Milly's mind, he just looked at C.C in surprise.
"Are you serious?, aren't you afraid of me doing something?"
"Oh? If you have the courage, just do it..." C.C answered Noah's question with a provocative smile at Noah like a haughty queen and made every man who saw her have the desire to conquer.
Seeing that C.C didn't seem to care, then of course Noah wouldn't say anything, after all, he wasn't the one being harmed.
"Thank you, Milly" after talking to C.C, Noah thanked Milly.
"Then I'll excuse myself, Noah-sensei"
Milly said before leaving Noah's room.
