knight's oath

"Where is brother going?" Raising his head from his homework, Rollo called to the boy who was about to walk out of the control room.

"Yeah," Lelouch turned his head and smiled softly, "Yeah, I'm going to check the situation in Ikebukuro—" He glanced at the homework written by the young man, "I'll help you look at the rest when I come back!"

"Yeah!" Rollo smiled happily, "Let's go—"

"My lord, what do you think?" Hughes looked at the girl sitting on the sofa, closing her eyes and meditating. There was too much tenderness and pampering in her eyes, but she didn't dare to let the other party know.

"Hmm..." With a soft moan, Freya slowly opened her eyes, and her fan-like eyelashes slid across an arc gracefully like a butterfly. "Is the weight increased this time?"

"Hmm! It's just an increase of one-tenth! Last time, adults didn't take it for four consecutive days, so there was a lack of flow in the body, so—"

"Well... Thank you for your hard work!"

"This is my duty!"

Freya didn't speak any more, and closed her eyes again.She, who had taken off her military uniform, was shrouded in soft lights, and her fair face was glowing with a touch of pink, as if adding a touch of fragility to her.

Seeing the exquisite face close at hand, Hughes hurriedly lowered his eyes to cover up the tenderness in his eyes, but said cautiously, "When is your lord going to leave here?"

"Leave? There's no rush!"

"I'm afraid that if His Majesty's army is overwhelmed—"

Freya chuckled, "Hughes, guess what, if Britannia wants to take advantage of this opportunity, who will lead the army and who will be in charge?"

After thinking for a while, Hughes frowned, "This subordinate doesn't know—"

Hearing this, the girl smiled and opened her eyes, her eyes fell on the faces of the people around her, "Hughes, you still lack Xiuer's power of observation!"

"..."

"If I'm not mistaken, the best candidate to lead the army this time should be Your Highness Cornelia! But—"

"His Royal Highness Cornelia is currently missing!"

"Hmm..." Since Yuffie's death, His Highness has been in a critical state, so it's no wonder that he suddenly dropped everything.Is it to find the truth?

Freya recalled the last time she met the woman galloping the battlefield, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.Shaking his head, he shook off his troublesome thoughts, "Since His Royal Highness Cornelia is unable to fight, the only one who can take over this job is—"

Hughes suddenly said, "His Royal Highness Schneizel!"

"Hmm—" The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and Freya nodded, "Since Schneizel led the army to suppress the border, I'm afraid there won't be a war!"

"Uh? Why?!" Hughes was puzzled, "Your Highness Schneizel's way of handling things, isn't your lord very clear? Even though the appearance is gentle, but the critical moment is..." Thinking of the possible consequences, he couldn't help but stop. speech.

"Unscrupulous, right?" Freya said kindly, "Indeed—although she looks gentle on the outside, she is too cruel on the inside!" The soft female voice slowly dissipated in the air, as insignificant as a raving.

Yes--

But why?Why did I seem to have predicted him and not take the tactics of starting a war?

Is it because of his attitude, or because of—that strange feeling?

"It's really strange..." The corner of her lips curled up in self-mockery, and the girl said in a low voice—"I don't know why, but I intuitively think that he will definitely avoid war!"

Hearing this, Hughes suddenly opened his eyes wide, but saw that Freya had never seen a smile on her face at this moment—helpless and gentle.Suddenly, a sense of unease rose in his heart, as if something was about to happen, a feeling that could not be guessed or grasped.

"My lord, it's better to be careful—"

As soon as the words fell, the girl in front of her suddenly sat up, opened her eyes wide, and grabbed the skirt of her heart.The beautiful face was pale, the lower lip was bitten tightly by white teeth, but there was pain in the silver eyes.

"My lord!!" Hughes hurriedly bent down, trying to support her, but he didn't want to be pushed away by her. "grown ups?!"

A thin layer of sweat covered her fair and clean face, and her pink lips were already pale, as if they had been stained a little bloodshot.

"My lord—" Hughes didn't know what to do. He was already extremely anxious, but he could only look at the pained face of the girl in front of him, as if he was enduring something.

what to do--

…………

…………

The minutes passed by--

After an unknown amount of time, the girl suddenly let go of her hand, and those bright eyes closed gently at that moment.

"grown ups--"

Seeing that she was about to fall to one side, Hughes stretched out his arms to embrace her anxiously, only to find that the person in his arms had already passed out.

With her eyes tightly closed, she still had a pale face, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her butterfly-like eyelashes were trembling slightly, casting a shadow.

"...Freya..." With complex emotions in the purple eyes, Hughes involuntarily caressed that delicate face.The slender fingertips slid across the eyebrows, cheeks, and stayed on the bloodshot lips——

My lord, what's the matter with you——

Abominable—the remorse of not being able to do anything for the person one cares about is aimed at one's own incompetence, but it is also the heaviest and most hated fact.

Even though he was impatient, Hughes didn't know that Freya was immersed in his dream at this moment.Is it a nightmare, or a sweet dream?Nobody can tell—

…………

"Where is this place?" Freya frowned, looked around, but couldn't see anyone.

In a world filled with mist, one can vaguely see the purple ocean and the familiar fragrance filling the tip of the nose.

Smelling the familiar aroma gradually calmed down her agitated mood, "This is - tulip?!"

Clenching her fists, Freya walked towards the purple sea.As she got closer, she could clearly see the sea of ​​purple tulips at this moment.

The delicate blossoms that move with the wind, and the fragrance that rises with the wind.Inexplicably, Freya felt a little familiar, as if she had seen such a scene before, and it seemed that she should be very familiar with all this.

"You really came..." A faint voice suddenly came to mind in the air, but there was no one there.

"..." The girl calmed down and looked around vigilantly, "Who the hell are you?"

"Unexpectedly, you still set foot on the old road—this is fate! The fate of the Kleikos family, your fate—"

Kleikos? !

Freya's eyes widened suddenly - what's going on?

"Are you going back? Are you willing to go back to that world?"

In a low voice, "I don't understand what you're talking about! But—don't play tricks on me! Come out—"

"Hehe—" With a burst of laughter, a woman's voice appeared indistinctly in the fog not far away. "Do you want to know who I am? Or—do you want to know who you are?"

"what?!"

The woman in the mist has long black hair, fluttering in the breeze.The hoarse voice has a hint of temptation, but it is also somewhat ethereal, as if it wants to bring people into an unknown world.

"Don't you think that you have too many questions that need to be answered? Don't you think that some people around you have a strange attitude towards you? Don't you think that your destiny cannot be controlled by yourself?"

A series of words came to mind, which really stunned the girl.Everything was just as the woman said, she did have a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but no one could answer them.

For a moment, Freya stood there in a daze, her silver eyes full of shock were flickering with uncertain emotions.A lot of pictures filled my mind all of a sudden, hazy, hazy, vague, hard to see, but very familiar.

Those pictures, like a flashing memory, make people want to capture them, but to no avail.The feeling of powerlessness made her suddenly feel a suffocating feeling, and she couldn't help falling to her knees.

Tightening the skirt of her chest, the girl opened her mouth slightly to pant, her forehead was covered with thin sweat.

"What a stubborn child...But this is also one of the reasons why you can make him care about—" Following the woman's soft sigh, Freya suddenly felt darkness in front of her eyes and lost consciousness.

"Is this Ashford Academy?" Jeremiah looked indifferently at the two men lying in a pool of blood on the ground, "It seems a bit weird!"

…………

"B7 reported to the headquarters—suspicious people were found near the auditorium, and B5B9 has gone to control!"

"Mr. Jeremy?!" Veletta looked at the one-eyed man on the screen in astonishment, "Why is he here?!"

"Subject is heading towards the club building—"

That rascal? !

Rollo immediately pressed the communicator and issued an order - "Notify all students to stay away from the club building! Sakiko -"

"Yes!"

The author has something to say:

Well, a little disappointed--

Hey, forget it, since the scores are almost the same now——

It's up to the person who grows the mushrooms to decide!
