knight's oath

The air is filled with the faint fragrance of roses, and a sea of ​​roses not far away is shaking gently with the breeze.

The girl opened her big eyes and looked curiously at the blond boy not far away, who was walking slowly here, wondering about his identity.

"Itiya..."

The soft call made her turn her head, and she couldn't help smiling when she saw the person behind her, "Princess Isabel——"

"Hehe, you girl slipped out without paying attention!" The woman walked over with graceful steps, and gently stroked her upturned little face.Suddenly, he saw his prince in his line of sight, looked down at the girl beside him who suddenly hid behind him, and couldn't help but chuckled.

At this time, the boy had already walked in front of the two of them——

"His Royal Highness, Gui'an!"

Isabel looked at her son with a smile, "Why are you here so late today?"

"I'm sorry, because something happened at the military academy this morning, so I rushed over early this morning! I'm so sorry for not being able to come back in time!" The young man lowered his head slightly, his golden hair hanging down to cover most of his eyes.There is always a faint smile on the handsome face, maintaining the usual elegance and nobility.

Isabel nodded slightly, and no longer entangled in this topic, "By the way, this is your Aunt Alexia's daughter Itiya!" Pulling the little girl out from behind, "Idia, this is Brother Schneizel, do you know?"

Itiya nodded obediently, took a few steps forward, performed a standard court etiquette, and called the other party softly.

Looking at those eyes full of shyness and anticipation, and a gentle voice came from his ear, the young man couldn't help but feel something unusual in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little mocking.Throwing away this strange thought, Schneizel frowned slightly.

"Schneizel, what are you doing today?" Seeing the boy's expression in her eyes, Isabel blinked beautifully, and a thought came to her mind.

Looking at his mother and concubine with some doubts, the still young Schneizel naturally failed to guess what the other party was thinking, and just nodded obediently.

"That's good!" Isabel clapped her hands slightly, and then she took Itiya's hand, and the other end took her prince's hand, and folded both of them—"Then I will ask Schneizel to take good care of me today." Get off Itiya!"

"Mother concubine?!"

"?!"

Facing the two children who were also wide-eyed, the woman smiled softly, but also concealed her cunning, "Well, I just happened to have a date today! So," facing the little girl, "Itiya, today Listen carefully to Brother Schneizel!"

"Huh?!" Somewhat puzzled, but seemingly unable to object, Itiya nodded, "Yes—"

"Mother Concubine—" Schneizel finally realized it at this moment, feeling a little cheated, and couldn't help feeling a little angry.

"Hehe——" Spreading the fan in her hand to cover her smile, Isabel leaned close to the boy's ear and whispered, "Idia is cute! Well, I made an agreement with Alexia a long time ago. Oh!"

"...!!" Hearing this, Schneizel's pupils suddenly shrank, but his face was involuntarily rosy.

When I looked up, I saw the woman's deep smile, and couldn't help but feel heavy, "Mother, concubine, are you challenging my endurance?"

Even if the other person is cute, even if I may have some unknown feelings, but--it's not me--SchneizelEIBritannia!

"Well, isn't it, you can figure it out yourself!" With a wave of his hand, the fan closed instantly.The woman straightened up and looked at the two of them, "Then I'll go first—"

Turning around, she took her steps gracefully, always proud and dignified.

Looking at the back of the concubine mother, Schneizel couldn't help but clenched his empty hands tightly.Suddenly, he noticed that the small hand in the heart of his other hand moved slightly, so he averted his gaze.

I saw the girl beside me was looking up at me curiously, her small face was full of innocence and purity, and her curved eyebrows revealed a childlike innocence.

Seeing this, the young man couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart—then I'll be with you today, little princess of the Kleikos family!

…………

…………

Pushing open the door of the room, Lelouch caught the girl lying on the bed in the other corner of the room at a glance, and his eyes couldn't help being soft and gentle.

Stepping forward gently, the boy couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the girl's normal rosy face.

Itiya...

Probably because his gaze was too hot, the sleeping girl frowned slightly, and then slowly opened a pair of bright eyes—the pink cheeks were rosy, and the beautiful eyes were sleepy.

But when Freya saw clearly the person standing in front of her, she suddenly woke up.

When his condition was suppressed, Hughes was taken away, but it is certain that he was not sent back.After all - his physical condition does not allow him to lose his company!

However, this person was able to achieve this step, which really exceeded his expectations——

What is it for?An ace against Britannia?

If this is the reason, it is too simple!With his ingenuity, wouldn't he be able to guess the plan of His Majesty the Emperor, would he believe so much in the weight of a knight?

If not, then why - for this sake?

There are too many doubts that the current Freya cannot solve, but at this moment she is not in the mood to think about it——

The girl stood up slowly, with elegant and noble movements.Then the bright eyes narrowed, and a trace of clarity and indifference slipped across the eyes.The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and a faint smile stained his lips, "Why, does ZERO especially like the way of breaking in suddenly? Or is this just a way of treating 'guests'?"

Even if you have clearly recognized some facts, but when things look like people, when you face familiar people and things, but it is a different scene, the feeling of heartache is still so strong.

It's not that I don't want to see her, it's not that I don't want to see her, the long-awaited person, the long-awaited fact, finally no longer a dream, but my heart is hesitating.

The soft and gentle smile of the past has long since disappeared, and the gentle and soft voice of the past has long since changed. Facing the person in front of him who is so familiar that he can no longer be familiar with, but who is so strange that he can no longer be a stranger, the young man feels his whole body plunged into ice-coldness.In a trance, everything in front of me became a little blurred, a little less real.

But the other party still doesn't understand the significance of his every move, every frown and smile, but he always carries a bit of ridicule, a bit of indifference, and a bit of alienation.

Seeing that Lelouch hadn't responded for a long time, Freya was a little bored.Pursing her red lips, she turned her head away, "If you want to interrogate or use clichés, I advise you to save this time!"

The indifferent tone made the boy feel a little hurt, but no one noticed under the cover of the mask.

The eyelids drooped slightly, and those strange pupils shone with the tenderness and helplessness, distress and unwillingness that can only be seen when facing her.

One picture after another kept flashing in my mind, overlapping and interlacing.

She who smiled sweetly, who was sleepy, who looked back with a smile, and who looked forward with clear eyes, all of her smiling and delicate faces pierced into the heart like sharp arrows.

Looking up, the young man saw her indifferently, and his strong longing and unwillingness almost burst out for a while.

she was--

It's Freya Ting!

Not Itiya Kleikos!

Thinking of this, the clenched fists were loosened suddenly, and the corner of the boy's lips curled up——

"What if the time was not wasted?"

With his gaze firmly fixed on the shocked face of the other party, Lelouch walked to the sofa opposite the bed and sat down, "Freya Ting, Phantom Knight, can you please tell me your chips?"

"Oh?!" Freya's heart trembled, but she quickly recovered, "I don't quite understand what you mean!"

"Really?" Lelouch said with a smile, "Could it be that Lady Freya Ting wants her life to end in District 11?"

"Then you are indeed in District 11 now!" Freya chuckled lightly as a hint of cunning slipped through her eyes.Although I have conjectured before, but I am not sure!

"..." Lelouch felt a little annoyed when he realized that he had leaked it out of nowhere.But after thinking about it, it wasn't an important matter, so he pursed his lips and didn't speak.

Blinking her beautiful eyes, Freya covered her mouth with her hands, feeling a little sleepy, "Could it be that ZERO can't guess my chips? But what——"

"..." Are you really putting everything on the phantom army on the western front?

"But I'm really sleepy right now - if you don't mind, please leave first - or -" the girl rolled her eyes, and the girl drew a charming arc, "Do you want to stay here -"

Hearing this, the boy's heart trembled slightly, but he was not noticed by the other party.The handsome face under the mask was also slightly flushed, "Then, don't bother—"

Getting up, Lelouch quickly left the room, but he didn't know that his actions were a little flustered at this moment, but the girl behind him could already see clearly.What's more, she didn't know that this also aroused her even greater doubts.

The author has something to say:
