Rebellious Lelouch's Phantom Knight

"I think it should be a great opportunity for Your Excellency to take care of His Royal Highness Lelouch and Nunnally?" Ain looked at the old man in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Opportunity? Ever since I left the imperial capital, I...you know it too. Recently, there seems to be some...well, I know. Although the death of Her Royal Highness Princess Mariana has hit us hard, but with a strong A prince with the will to revenge? Hehe, maybe it’s a good choice..." The old man seemed to have made some difficult decision, and sighed slowly.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Robben K. Ashford. With this, I can leave with peace of mind!" Ain said goodbye.

"Hehe, Ain, Ain Asbrund, the second son of the Asbrund family? What a nice little guy! Ello, Ello, you were really blind back then! Well, the Ashford family will never fall into my hands, Robben K. Ashford..."

After Ain left, Robben K. Ashford, the current head of the Ashford family, sat in the study and muttered to himself.Seeing the direction in which Ain was leaving, I felt some unspeakable emotions for some reason.

When Ain came back, he saw Lelouch at the foot of the mountain, surrounded and beaten by a group of village teenagers. Those Japanese teenagers shouted and kicked Lelouch vigorously.Lelouch just squatted down silently, his hands tightly protecting the basket on his chest, and the scattered fruits beside him were already covered with dust... and those bodyguards seemed to be sneering because of Ain's disappearance, Watching Lelouch, who is the prince, being bullied and ravaged.Just when Ain was worried and wanted to make a move, he saw Suzaku rushing out from the side.Suzaku seems to have a high prestige among the group of children, or, because of the reputation of the Shumu family, it is absolute rule here, and those children left angrily while insulting them.

"Hey, why don't you resist? You are a prince after all? What!? Are you a girl? Resist!" Seeing Lelouch's silence, Suzaku was very angry for some reason, and turned his eyes to Those bodyguards sneered, "Why don't you help? Aren't you bodyguards? Seeing that the person you want to protect is beaten like this, why don't you help?"

"They are just watchmen, not bodyguards. They just watch over me and don't let me run away or commit suicide, otherwise they don't care! These people, as long as I don't die, they don't care about me at all! Only Ain... ...It's just that Ain has something to go out today, and Nunnally wants...so..." Lelouch looked at the deformed fruit in his arms, and looked at Suzaku with a gloomy expression.

"So, are you like this? Really, Your Highness Lelouch, can you do nothing without me?" Ain came to the two with a smile on his face, "Let's go, Your Highness Lelouch, let It's not good for Your Highness Nunnally to wait in a hurry!"

"Why did those bodyguards do this? And you, Ain, why..." Suzaku looked at everyone in front of him with a puzzled face.

"Why... Then, why did you save me? You know, I'm a Britannian! Suzaku, who knocked me to the ground that day, didn't you always hate Britannians? Then, why do you still want to save me?" Lelouch seemed to lose control of his emotions and roared at Suzaku. If Ain hadn't stopped him, Lelouch would have stepped forward and pulled Suzaku's collar...

"Although I hate Britannia very much, I hate the weak being bullied even more..." Suzaku looked at Lelouch with a straight face, with a flash of determination in his eyes.

"Weak? Hehe, it is indeed weak... You are right..." Lelouch smiled inexplicably as if mocking himself, but only Ain could understand the bitterness and grief in that smile!

"what's so funny?"

"I'm laughing at myself! This is the so-called self-deprecating!" After speaking, Lelouch stood up and carefully picked up the dusty fruit on the ground...

He was obviously a prince, but he was there, picking up the scattered fruits and small change one by one.What a pitiful and ugly gesture!Seeing Lelouch in a state of distress, Ain couldn't help but feel worried. If after he left, Lelouch could really live to be 17 years old like in the original work, and launch a war of revenge against Britannia ?

"It's all because you are so weak, and you still go to the city to buy fruit! Why don't you let Ain accompany you? With him, you won't be in such a situation... Don't be so self-willed, eat well and we will cook for you It's not poisoned..." Although Suzaku couldn't bear it, he couldn't help scolding when he thought that Lelouch wouldn't eat the food they brought.

"I know you won't poison... But I am still alive, living on my own strength! I am not dead... I am not, and neither is Nunari! I don't want to rely on Ain's power to survive, because that ...is that still alive?"

"Okay, stop it! Suzaku, I want to see your father tomorrow, so please tell me now! And His Highness Lelouch, let's go back together, His Highness Nunnally seems to be about to cry!"

When Ain saw that the two of them seemed to be gradually discussing the philosophy of life, he had to interrupt their conversation, God knows when it would be!Fortunately, as soon as Lelouch, the sister-in-law, heard something related to Nunnally, especially when she heard the phrase 'Nunally is about to cry', she immediately turned around and left without even talking to Suzaku. hello or something.

"Thank you for your rescue today, Suzaku..." After thanking Suzaku, Ain looked at the bodyguards angrily, with a sneer involuntarily on his face, "It seems that you are a little dissatisfied with the content of your work. Solution, how about I send you to the head of the previous bodyguard to ask?"

Several bodyguards present broke out in a cold sweat. The kid who was talking in front of him was definitely a murderer with a wicked taste!What happened that night, several people were there at the time, tied around by Ain, and gagged... Just like that, several people saw it, and Ain smiled and "live broadcasted" the reaping of human lives ...Looking at the livid-faced bodyguards, Ain smiled disdainfully, turned and left; while Suzaku stood there quietly, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Hey, Lelouch, why don't you eat the food they brought?" After the person delivering the dinner left, Ain looked at Lelouch with a smile on his face.

"Because...because..." Lelouch didn't know what to say, and stammered for a long time.

"I thought it was because you were splattered with the blood of the dead that night, and you were frightened and lost your appetite! It seems that there are other reasons why you don't eat!" Looking at Lelouch who was about to eat, Ain Handing over a plate of bright red fruit platter, he looked at Lelouch expectantly, "Try this 'blood-colored platter'"

"Thank you! Ouch... Ain, you bastard!! Ouch!!!" Lelouch took Ain's so-called 'blood-colored platter', and seeing the bright red fruit juice inside, his scalp felt numb, as if Remembering that night, being 'bathed' with blood by Ain, he gave Ain a hard look, covered his mouth and ran out.

"Hehe, really, Lelouch, how long has it been, are you still unable to accept it?" Ain smiled while eating the 'Scarlet Platter', "Compared to human blood, this 'Scarlet Platter' It's much more delicious!"

"Ain Asbrud, you, you, you...vomit!!"

Lelouch, who had just come back, was very pale. Hearing what Ain said, he immediately went out again covering his mouth, leaving Ain to laugh alone.

The next day, Ain got up early, looked at Lelouch and Nunnally who were sleeping soundly, and went out quietly, thinking something in his heart.

The Shumu Shrine is located on a small mountain depression, and the surrounding scenery is indeed beautiful and charming, but Ain has a serious face, which makes it obvious that he has no intention of paying attention to the scenery along the way.It was Sumu Suzaku's father, Shumu Xuanwu, who Ain was going to meet.As the leader of the prime minister of the Japanese puppet government, Ain still admires it!You know, not every puppet has the courage to tear off the thin thread that controls itself.Entering the living room, a middle-aged man with a resolute face sat kneeling at the table with his eyes closed.

"Although you are only a child, I still want to know why you came to see me!" Shumu Xuanwu opened his eyes, looked at the boy who was about the same age as his son, and couldn't help admiring secretly in his heart. It's going to be great!A calm demeanor is easy to say, but when doing things and talking, the body and mind are still calm, which is really rare for children of this age!

"So, uncle! Before we talk, I want to ask a question. Can you guarantee that we are the only ones who heard what we talked about?" The smile on Ain's face replaced the seriousness just now. Very innocent.

"What... what are you going to tell me? You want to evacuate everyone around you?" Shumu Xuanwu was a little puzzled.

"Hehe, since this is the case, I want to talk to someone who has more power to speak! With all due respect, Prime Minister Xuanwu, you don't have the right to make decisions, do you?" Ain looked at Shumu Xuanwu with a mocking face.Then, turning around with Shumu Xuanwu on his back, he said in a firm tone, "Taizo Kirihara, Tatsuki Xingbu, Zongxiang Tangzhai or Gongfangyuan Hidenobu, those old guys, who would like to come out and talk to me? Six families...I haven't named the other two families of the six families... People from those two families are also fine, come out and talk to me, are you still afraid of me being a child?"

"Boy Ain, come over to me!" A middle-aged man came out, but his face was a little ugly.After saluting Shumu Xuanwu, he said, "Those adults want to see him! Master Xuanwu!"

Shumu Xuanwu nodded feebly like a discouraged ball, but looked at Ain with anger in his eyes, and Ain shrugged helplessly in response.The middle-aged man gestured to Ainbi, signaling Ain to follow him and not make any noise.

"I saw your skill that day. It was very good. It seems that you have received professional training. I thought Suzaku was already good, but compared with you, I feel that it is still a lot worse." Looking at Ain With a puzzled look on his face, the middle-aged man paused, "Excuse me, I'm Suzaku's kendo teacher, Fujido Kyoshiro!"

"Hehe, what's the matter, Suzaku is indeed very talented, but no matter how talented a person is, without a good teacher, he will only be a mediocre in the future." Ain exchanged greetings on the surface, but was surprised in his heart. , this man is a strong military strategist!You know, in the original work, Fujido Kashiro is a famous general who has never lost a battle in the war with the Britannian Empire by virtue of modern weapons such as aircraft and tanks!

"Hehe, I hope to have a chance to compete with you. I heard that Ain, you once received training from Bismarck, the number one knight of the Britannian Empire..." Fujido Kashiro led Ain to a quiet environment with a smile. In front of the house, "I hope you pay attention when you speak, after all, the people inside..."

"I know...thanks a lot! Huh? That kid..." Speaking of which, your information network is really powerful...

When Ain was about to enter the door, he saw a little black-haired loli hiding aside and watching secretly. The girl looked about seven or eight years old, wearing a kimono, and looked curiously at this side.As if sensing Ain's gaze, the girl stuck out her tongue, turned around and ran away.

"Ain, please come in!" Fujido Kyoshiro looked at the direction the girl was leaving, frowning a little, but he didn't say anything, just urged Ain.

The room is very quaintly furnished, without any luxurious decorations, but the atmosphere is a bit depressing.Ain saw that there seemed to be five people sitting in the Japanese-style room, but the curtains were hanging so that Ain could not see the faces of the people inside.It's really a face, five of the six Kyoto families have come!However, I am not afraid of this kind of formation!While thinking about it, Ain walked across from the five people with a big smile on his face.

"Boy, is your name Ain? Do you have anything to say?" One of the old men sounded a little irritable.

"Well... let me think about how to say it? After the Indochina Peninsula was occupied by the Britannian Empire, it was changed to the tenth district. Affected by this incident, Japan, which was originally a neutral country, changed its policy to the Chinese Federation and the EU. , imposed economic sanctions on the Britannian Empire. The Chinese Federation and the EU, which belonged to the allies, also united with other countries to block Britannia's ships, forcing Britannia to conduct diplomatic negotiations. At the same time, the mother who lost her mother His Royal Highness Lelouch and Nunnally were also sent to Japan as hostages in the name of studying abroad during this period."

"Okay, Ain, boy, what exactly do you want to say? What's the point of saying this!" It seemed that there was a different person, but this voice seemed to be much calmer than the one just now.

"Well, let me tell you a story! Once upon a time, there was a puppet who had the courage that ordinary puppets don't have. He wanted to tear off the six thin strings that controlled him, because he felt that the thin strings on his body prevented him from being free. But, he couldn't do it, so he could only wait quietly... until one day, he saw a man with a knife, and he knew the opportunity had come, so..."

"So, do you think the puppet will take this opportunity to break six thin strings... I don't understand, why do you tell all this? After you have said everything, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with us? Stupid pole!"

"The reason is very simple, because... I, Ain Asbrud, can also be regarded as a person with a knife!"

"Ain Asbrud, Asbrud...so that's the case, it seems that you came to us, is that the adult's intention?"

"Hehe, from the fact that Uncle Todo Kagamiro can say that I have received training from Mr. Bimax, I feel that it may be completely unnecessary for me to come here today! Right, five adults!"

"Ain, I have to say that although you are still a child, the adult's eyes are really... okay, we already know the reason for your visit, are you at ease?"

"Then, thank you, my lords!"

When Ain returned to the hut, he found that Lelouch and Nunnally had woken up and seemed to be waiting for him.Lelouch looked at it with puzzled eyes, and seemed to have a lot of questions to ask, but when he thought of Nunnally by his side, Lelouch stopped thinking... I don't want Nunnally to get hurt, I hope she will always Have a pure heart!This is my responsibility as an older brother!

After Nunnally fell asleep, the two left the hut in a tacit understanding and came to the yard.

"Ain, you've been disappearing intermittently recently, what's going on?"

"Because I'm leaving, Lelouch!"

"Why? Why? Are you going to abandon us too? I... I know, do you think that I, the fallen prince, have no value to the Asbrund family?" Lelouch looked angry and frustrated, "Yeah, I've almost forgotten, Ain Asbrud, you promised to be my bodyguard for two years... Now it's time, and you, Ain Asbrud , just like the family arrangement, go to my royal brother, Schneizel, right?"

"Yes, Lelouch, no, His Royal Highness Lelouch Vi Britannia! Hehe, if I say so, do you feel hopeless? Do you feel that it will be difficult for Brittania in this life? Nia crushed?"

"Hehe...it's easy to despair over something of this magnitude...Ain Asbrud, I'm no longer that ignorant kid!"

"But in my eyes, you are still just a worrying and willful child!" Ain looked at the smile on Lelouch's face and was very satisfied.Ain tidied up some wrinkled clothes for Lelouch, and said with a smile, "Maybe we will not see each other for a long time, but I, Ain Asbrund, hereby swear to you that when you step on On the road to vengeance on Britannia..."

"You will become the sharpest long sword in my hand, beheading all enemies who stand in my way for me! In this case, Ain, I am waiting for that day! Hahahahaha! The farewell is only for goodbye! Go, complete our agreement , my bodyguard... no, my sharpest long sword in the future - Phantom Knight!"

"Yes, MyLord!"
