knight's oath

The white roses are blooming delicately, with the dewdrops from last night on the snow-white petals—they are crumbling under the breeze——

Accidentally falling down, the dew was hidden in the soil and lost its existence——

…………

Silence enveloped this green land. Men and women in black dresses stood on both sides, with a pure white carpet in the middle. Eight knights carried a coffin and walked towards the high platform ahead—— I don't know when it started, the continuous drizzle slowly fell from the sky——

The pure white coffin is a special case, and under the strong request of the second prince, the girl's body will be buried in the cemetery of the royal family—even if the wedding ceremony has not yet been held—

Dressed in a white military uniform, the golden tassels on his shoulders were slowly wet by the rain—the expressionless second prince Schneizel stood on the side of the high platform, looking at the approaching coffin, the darkness in his eyes was unprecedented. past sorrow--

Only at this time did he clearly feel the girl's departure——

The image that emerged in my mind was that still warm smile, pure and innocent, as if it was yesterday——

"Brother Schneizel—" When the little man sees himself coming in, he will always leave the side of his mother and concubine, and throw himself into his arms—when the little head lifts up from his arms, When, always the soft smile, sweet voice lingering in the ear -

Since when did I slowly fall in love with that smile—fascinated by that soft voice—obsessed with that temperature—

Since when did that little man put his heart on another person——

Since when, I can't help but put political means on her, just hope that she won't leave——

"Itiya, you..." Looking at the slightly trembling girl with her back turned to her, Schneizel couldn't help frowning and approached—"What's wrong?"

Turning the girl's body around, I saw tears on the other's face as expected——I couldn't help but feel pain——

"Brother Schneizel, Lelouch, he—"

For a moment, I felt a flame spreading from my heart, Itiya, are you crying for others?

"Lelouch...he's going to be sent to District 11..." The girl's words were interrupted by crying—"Princess Mariana————"

Seeing the girl crying for others, Schneizel felt a burst of disappointment and anger, but he couldn't bear to say anything to the girl, so he could only embrace her in his arms and comfort her silently——

"Itiya, maybe Lelouch wants to leave this sad place! So—"

"But, doesn't he want Itiya?" The girl's anxious tone made the man feel his blood boil again, and the anger in his heart was almost uncontrollable.

"You obviously promised Itiya, why did you leave?" The girl didn't notice the anger in the eyes of the people around her at all, she was just sad at the departure of her childhood sweetheart——

Hearing this, the man couldn't bear it anymore, pulled the person in his arms away, and stared at the stunned girl seriously, "Itiya, are you talking to Lelouchi—" He couldn't ask, but But the girl learned of her problem——

I saw it, the girl nodded heavily, her pink lips gently opened and closed——

"Yes—Idia likes Lelouch, very much—"

…………

…………

It started at that time, and I made up my mind to lock you by my side forever, whether you like it or not—

Just because you are the only one who is not afraid of your own identity, not afraid of your own coldness——

Itiya -

... A self-deprecating smile appeared on the man's lips——

Itiya, you'll never know—

Your fiancé was supposed to be who you thought, but how could I let this happen?

It was me who designed Lu Luxiu to go to His Majesty the Emperor to make a theory, and indirectly take him away from your side—speaking of it, is there a reason for his death?

You'd be mad if you found out—maybe you'd leave me too—

Only you'll never know—and it will always be mine—

…………

…………

It’s still the same place, with the same boy surrounded by the breeze, but the scene of the cherry blossoms dancing that day has long since disappeared—the girl under the cherry blossom tree has also passed by in a flash—

"Itiya..."

The cherry blossoms have passed the season of blooming, when a small pink petal flashed in front of my eyes, the boy hastily stretched out his hand—the light red petals gently fell on the palm of the boy—

Pink and white correspond to—

The delicate petals are also a little damaged, just like the girl watching the cherry blossoms——

"Lu Luxiu—" The girl's call still echoed in my ears, the words that day were my vows, but they were the ones I regret most——

If I hadn't said those words, if I could muster up the courage to take you away, wouldn't everything be different——

Itiya - are you hating me?

Was the severe pain that night your punishment for me?I didn't hear your cry for help, but I turned a blind eye to your tears—you must hate me for being like this——

The boy raised his head, his purple eyes looked at the sky as before——

Is there you on the other side of the sky——

On October 2017, 10 in the imperial calendar, Itiya Kleikos was named Itiya Britannia and was buried in the Britannia Royal Cemetery.

………………

The cool breeze blows over the girl's tombstone

"Tomy princess Eydia? Britannia

Youaremyunique——

—Schneizel El Britannia"

The photo of the girl on the tombstone is smiling sweetly, the gentleness in the ice blue pupils is still there, and the sweet smile on her mouth is the same as before——
