knight's oath

"It's really a long-awaited contact—" Jino leaned on the pillar, and said intentionally or unintentionally, "I don't know if this is good news? Or bad news—"

"Whether it's good or bad, you are responsible for it!" As soon as she entered the door, she heard the boy's joking voice, and Freya glared at him angrily.

"Ah, Xiaoya—" Jino hurriedly put down his hands that were originally encircled, and leaned closer—"Is Xiaoya still angry?"

"I'm too lazy to talk to you—" Freya gave him a blank look, turned around and walked to the sofa in front, and sat down on one——

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone playing with his mobile phone in the corner, and said lightly, "Aniya, next time play with them, just wait for your mobile phone to explode!"

"Ah?!" The girl who was slow to react nodded obediently, "Oh! Got it!"

…………

The door was opened, and three men and women walked in——

"Ah, the four knights are all here!" The silver-haired man who always spoke first was naturally unruly.He waved at the girl, "Long time no see, Lady Freya—"

Freya got up and bent slightly towards the man, "It's been a long time, Lloyd, Earl!"

"Haha, I didn't expect Lady Freya to address me so respectfully and formally! Hehe——" Lloyd shook his hand and walked over, sitting on the side, "It seems that today is really fun——"

"Yeah——" Freya evoked a wicked smile, "It all depends on what kind of chess pieces the opponent plans to make!"

"That..., can I really come here?" A hesitant female voice sounded——

Freya glanced at the blue-haired woman in a sexy dress, then shifted her gaze, expressing that she had no objection.

"It's okay, don't you want to see ZERO?" Lloyd said jokingly.

Suzaku also said a few words apologetically, to calm Cecil's uneasy mood.

"By the way, what kind of clothes are you wearing on this occasion?" The blond woman with her hair tied looked at her with contempt.

"Ah, I'm sorry—" Seemingly frightened, Cecil replied hastily——

"It seems to be connected—" Freya, who had been watching the screen, suddenly said, signaling for everyone to quiet down.

……

After a burst of snowflakes, ZERO wearing a mask appeared on the screen—"Oh?! There are three knights of the round table, plus a phantom knight, this is a grand welcome—"

Taking a glance, Lelouch frowned, "However, I don't seem to see the governor—"

Suzaku explained indifferently, "This is just a matter of routine level, and there is no need to bother the Governor!" Looking out of the corner of his eye, he saw a chuckle from the girl beside him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart——

"Well, I have a question I've always wanted to ask you—" Lloyd held his chin and looked at the person on the screen with interest, "Are you the same person as the original ZERO?"

"The authenticity of ZERO is not determined by who he is, but by his actions!" The ingenious answer made Freya admire this person.

"Aha, what a philosophical answer—" Kino said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "So it means that the opinions of the Black Knights have reached a unity?"

Freya raised her hand slightly, stopping Gino from continuing to speak—

The silver eyes under the mask turned, showing a touch of cruelty, "Hey ZERO, what I care about is how many people can you bring to participate in this special administrative region of Japan?"

"My side can drive 100 million people!" Lelouch under the mask also looked back at the girl—let me see, what skills do you have—Phantom Knight, Freya Ting!

"One million people!!" Cecil couldn't help exclaiming!Compared to her, the other people who were equally shocked seemed calmer.

As if sensing the purpose of the man on the screen, Freya tapped the armrest lightly with her right hand—"Are you serious?"

"Of course! But I want a guarantee and a condition!"

"Guarantee?! Conditions?" Suzaku couldn't help frowning, as if guessing his intentions.

"Yes, I need the governor's permission!" Lu Luxiu explained kindly, with a strange smile on his handsome face.

"Huh?!" Freya snorted softly, raised her chin with great interest, and waited for further explanation from the other party—"First of all, the governor promised not to harm the 100 million people I brought!"

Suzaku subconsciously glanced at Freya at the side, and after seeing that the other party didn't express anything, she felt a little nervous——

"How, can you get the governor to come out and make a promise?" Lelouch clenched his fists—at least, seeing you again in such a calm situation, Nunnally—

After tomorrow, you will hate me, or spit on me, it doesn’t matter——

"It's really greedy—" Anya said coldly with her back to the screen, her eyes never leaving the screen of her mobile phone.

"Freya..." The girl who was called looked back at Suzaku, who was worried, and also saw Jino standing upright looking at her out of the corner of her eyes. She couldn't help laughing—worried about my change of mind?

Lelouch saw all this - a trace of doubt arose from the bottom of his heart.

Freya looked at the screen resignedly, "You mean the governor's guarantee?"

"Yes!"

Freya nodded lightly, "Then, I can assure you!"

"What?!" Lelouch was taken aback, but quickly recovered—"I don't know, what does Mrs. Freya Ting mean by this sentence?"

"It's literally!" It wasn't Freya who answered, but Lloyd, who was watching a show from the sidelines—"The governor of District 11, the actual governor who controls the military power."

What? ! ——Lelouch was startled, and asked momentarily, "Nunaly, where's the governor?"

Strange guy——Freya glanced at him suspiciously, lowered her eyes, and played with her fingers, "With your ingenuity, do you believe that His Majesty the Emperor will rest assured that a blind girl with limited mobility will be the Governor of District 11?"

"..." Lelouch failed to answer this question - he should have known that Nunnally would become a pawn.But she didn't expect that she wouldn't be given a choice in the first place.

Or is it that you don't want to admit it—like a ghostly errand, Freya suddenly had such an idea.But it was quickly ruled out.

"Hehe, what an honorary governor, an underground governor!" Lelouch sneered and regained his sanity—"Then you are willing to give me this guarantee?"

"Well, yes—" the girl nodded, "but all of this is under the guarantee that they will not form a rebellion. I don't care about the title of 'masochistic'!"

Suzaku was slightly relieved by Freya's answer, but felt helpless for the other party's words——

"Hehe, as expected of the God of Reaper on the Western Front—"

"Then what is the condition?"

"Let me go—" Lelouch's voice remained steady and calm, "I wonder what you think about the issue of sending ZERO into exile overseas?"

Hearing this, Cecil was the first to exclaim - "Exile?!"

"What about the Black Knights?" Suzaku stood up excitedly——

"Let's ignore it—" the blond boy said sarcastically, "I just care about saving my own life!"

Lloyd also stood up at this time, "If this kind of thing is exposed in the organization, you will be lynched—"

Contrary to other people's words and deeds, Lelouch kept looking at the blond girl who was always silent and expressionless.Those cold silver eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Even through the mask, Lelouch still felt that those eyes seemed to have seen through everything. "What do you think? Lady Freya Ting—"

"It sounds good to us—" Freya said softly, but she was somewhat puzzled in her heart.

"Freya!" Suzaku was startled, unexpectedly she agreed——

"It's not bad indeed!" Gino put a hand on Suzaku's shoulder, and seemed to be exerting a little force, "After the leader leaves, it is foreseeable that the organization will fall apart! Right, Anya—"

"Boring—" she replied without looking back, and Anya was still playing with her mobile phone.

……

"Then what's your opinion? The Governor of District 11—Freya Ting——" The conspiracy that appeared in his eyes was covered under the mask, and the boy's purple eyes flashed with strange streamers.

"as you wish--"
