What is there under the sea?

Is it worth asking Lamia Labrese, the right-hand man of Speaker Finale, to personally take action and sit here, waiting for the moment when something like that breaks out of the egg?

A glimmer of inquiry flashed through the black-haired boy's eyes.

After all, the reason why he was able to successfully find his lost sister in countless worlds due to the Emperor Lelouch V. Britannia was because he was hidden under the sea by the Final Council.

thing.

"Speaking of which, MR.K, you have already accomplished one of your original goals."

Turning around and staring at the calm sea, Lamia's voice was extremely cold.

"Yeah! Yes. Thanks to the help of the council, I was able to reunite with my sister, Nunnally."

The black-haired boy did not hesitate to express his gratitude to the Final Council and constantly praised the woman in front of him who was the speaker's right-hand man.

"You are indeed not that Emperor. Although your identity, appearance, and genes are exactly the same, your growth environment is different. Perhaps this is the reason why the previous emperor was killed by you."

For some reason, as Lamia's cold voice sounded, a chill ran down the black-haired boy's back.

The other party seems to be testing him!!

The woman in front of me,

No,

no!

It was the man standing behind the woman in front of him who was testing him!

The Speaker who controls the Final Council is testing him!

Although it is a bit unexpected, it is reasonable.

Ever since the black-haired boy killed "himself" with his own hands, inherited everything from him, braved that road alone with a fearless attitude, and stood in the Final Council in the name of the emperor, the black-haired boy has

Know that this day will come.

However, he did not expect that the Speaker would tolerate it until he and Nunnally got together before he started to attack.

"No! No matter what the reason is, between me and Emperor Lelouch, only one can survive. This is a fact that cannot be changed from the beginning. I believe that the speaker who recommended that path to Emperor Lelouch also

Very clear.”

The counterattack unfolded quietly.

That path.

The path that leads to killing "oneself" in many parallel universes and seizing the power of "oneself" was personally recommended to Emperor Lelouch by the Speaker of the Final Council.

This is something Lamia cannot deny or refute.

Under such irrefutable evidence, Lamia fell silent.

"Thinking about it, it may not be safe over there in Gallarhorn. MISS.L. I wonder if I can bring Nunnally over, um, and place her here together with the target's fiancée."

Accept as soon as you see fit.

The black-haired boy did not push Lamia too much, but instead gave in and assumed a posture of obeying the speaker.

This step made Lamia nod happily.

"Okay! We have a safe spot right near here. Not only your sister and the target's fiancée, but also your partners should call over! There is enough protection for them there."

"Thank you so much!"

North of Oceania.

The city that had completely retreated from the ancient disaster and calmed the war was still in a tense and orderly atmosphere of preparations for war.

The defeat of the ancient calamity ritual is obvious to all.

But no one dared to believe that the ancient calamity would be a retreat that would never return.

Humanity has only won the first battle since the resurrection of the ancient calamity.

And this first victory was largely due to the steel lion that came in midway and independently faced most of the power of the ancient calamity in this city.

At this moment, the Gallarhorn soldiers who had just witnessed the defeat of the ancient calamity had to say goodbye to the Iron Lion who had left Carpentaria and headed south alone.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed since Longtooth Lion Zero left Carpentaria alone and headed south towards the giant pit.

As the Longtooth Lion Zero penetrates deeper and deeper into the interior of Oceania, the situation gradually becomes what Lei Mingkai predicted.

In the interior of Oceania, signs of ancient evil events are becoming more and more frequent.

From being vaguely visible, to being seen everywhere, to being unavoidable, the only way to break through the siege of the wandering troops set by the ancient calamity ritual is through combat.

In less than a day, the Longtooth Lion Type Zero fought no less than ten times with those ancient evil spirits wandering in the interior of Oceania.

Even though those stragglers were just a drop in the bucket to the Long-tusked Lion Zero, they couldn't help but appear frequently, making the Long-tusked Lion Zero extremely annoyed and annoyed.

The original plan of Longtooth Lion Zero was to use the maximum speed of the blast equipment to move as straight as possible southward, trying to rush to the edge of the giant pit in the shortest possible time.

"Tch! Kai. Is there any other way? These flies are very annoying!"

Taking advantage of the nearby stragglers who hadn't noticed the movement for a while, Zero took advantage of the moment and asked Lei Mingkai to choose a new path.

"There is a way! But, you still have to walk on water again."

Lei Mingkai's method is naturally simple.

Since Type Zero was annoyed by the ancient disasters all over the interior, he went directly east to the seaside and went south along the coastline, thereby avoiding the ancient disasters wandering inside.

Just, this way...

Some of Lei Mingkai's plans are about to come to nothing.

"Treading water? Kai, didn't you bastard just want to attract the enemy's attention in the first place?"

Zero-type was stunned for a moment, then immediately dispelled Lei Mingkai's idea.

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zero immediately reacted.

"Ouch! Kai, are you looking for fun with me?"

"No! You said that yourself."

At the beginning, Lei Mingkai really wanted to attract the attention of the Ancient Calamity Festival as much as possible and attract all the surrounding soldiers, thereby creating loopholes in the ancient Calamity Catalyst's military network distributed on this continent.

Behind this level of intention, there are deeper thoughts.

If these ancient calamities are really causing trouble around or even inside the giant pit as I guessed, they will definitely not ignore the enemy who is swaggering across the entire continent and rushing straight towards the giant pit.

.

"I was just complaining! Complaining!!"

As soon as the Zero's holographic image appeared, it pounced on Lei Mingkai's arm and started biting it.

Unfortunately, although the holographic image looked very realistic, it could not cause any harm to Lei Mingkai.

At most, I just think the Type Zero looks really vicious.

Suddenly, Lei Mingkai and Zero looked to the left together.

There, it happened to be in the direction of the huge crater that swallowed up a corner of Oceania.

"Something's wrong!"

The Zero's holographic image suddenly began to shake, as if it had been disturbed by something.

However, Type Zero's holographic image is not transmitted over long distances, but is generated within its own body.

Logically speaking, there will be no interference at all.

"Walk!"

As the holographic image of Type Zero shook more and more, Lei Mingkai felt an increasingly strong sense of urgency that his speculation might come true.

What happened to that giant pit?

Rays of illusive and dreamlike light and shadow descended from the void, covering the sea like a veil, which was really beautiful.

"That is?"

This sudden light and shadow made the black-haired boy Lelouch frown slightly.

He seemed surprised by the sudden scene.

"The time may have come!"

Lamia, who was standing next to her, said softly.

There seemed to be a hint of exclamation in his words.

At the same time, her eyes were slightly fascinated as she looked at the dreamy light and shadow falling from the void.

With the emergence of light and shadow, the sky covering the sea gradually turned into a bright starry sky with twinkling stars.

On top of the ever-changing light and shadow like a fluttering veil, the starry sky seemed to have begun to change.

Lelouch looked away from the light and shadow, staring at the changed starry sky.
