In the beginning, the programs on the TV were all entertainment and news programs. However, after more than ten minutes, the programs on the screen were suddenly cut off. Then, a female announcer with long blonde hair solemnly read out the news.
"The third prince of the empire, the governor of the 11th district, His Highness Clovis has passed away …"
At this time, there were not only Sei Itō, Leval, and Nunnally in the room, but also Nina who came back after sending Karin to the washroom, Shirley, and Milei who had finished washing clothes.
"How can that be?" Shirley crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with disbelief.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and Karin and Luluxiu, who were dressed in men's clothes, walked in while talking and laughing.
"Not good, brother!" Nunnally shouted to Luluxiu immediately.
"His Highness Clovis has passed away," Milei said after Nunnally.
"They said he was killed," Leval added.
"His Highness Clovis has sacrificed himself." On the TV, surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers in military uniforms with red cuffs tied around their right arms, a man in a blue aristocratic costume leaned his hands on both sides of the podium in front of him and said loudly, "In the battle with the number maker, he died in the line of duty for justice. We must endure the grief and carry out his will. "
"We just got the latest information." At this time, the picture changed, and the figure of the female anchor appeared on the screen again, "The man who is considered a suspect has been arrested." The picture changed again, and a short-haired man in white restraints, escorted by six armed soldiers, appeared on the screen. "According to the report, the arrested person is an honorary Britanian, a soldier of the Vermilion Bird Clan, originally from the 11th district …"
After watching the news from beginning to end, everyone's mood became heavy. Under such circumstances, the welcome party obviously could not be held, but in the spirit of not wasting time, they still had a simple meal, separated when the sky was about to turn dark, and left Ashford Academy.
"What's wrong? Something on your mind? " On the way back, Sei Itō looked at Karin, who was sitting silently in the passenger seat, and asked.
"No, nothing." Karin, who was taken aback by the sudden question, shook her head and said after reacting.
"Is it about Clovis or the Resistance?" Seeing that Karin didn't want to talk about it, Roland asked. Sei Itō could only ask in a different way. However, Karin was obviously not in the mood to talk and continued to respond to Sei Itō's inquiry with silence.
"Forget it." Seeing Karin's reaction, Sei Itō tactfully shut his mouth and sent Karin home in silence.
The next day. In the great hall of Ashford Academy, as a school for nobles, Ashford Academy specially held a mourning ceremony for the late Third Prince Clovis. After the ceremony, they announced a three-day break as a sign of mourning.
"Do you have time?" Sei Itō asked Karin after the meeting.
"Sorry, I have something to do later." Karin took out her phone and looked at the time on the screen. Said.
"Is that so? It's rare that I have time, so I wanted to take you to the lab to test your data," Sei Itō said with a shrug.
"What data?" Karin asked with a frown.
"The pilot of the new body." Sei Itō said, "Because the new body is new and its performance is far superior to the existing standard Knightmare, in order to ensure your safety, you have to be tested before you get on the machine to ensure that your body can indeed adapt to the new body's dynamic output and other relevant data."
"I don't think I promised you to be the pilot yet," Karin said as she walked forward.
"It's just a matter of time, so in order for you to get started smoothly in the future, an early test is inevitable," Sei Itō said.
"I really don't know where you get your confidence from. You think I will be your pilot? "Karin retorted with a curl of her lips.
"As long as you are still in the Resistance, you will see the Knightmare Knightmare. When you encounter the white Knightmare, you will feel that your combat power is not enough, and you will beg me. "Ito Sei said confidently.
"Hmph." Karin also knew that what Sei Itō said might be the truth, but she would not admit it so easily. She hurriedly took two steps away from Sei Itō's side.
The next three days were relatively calm, except for some panic caused by the sudden appearance of Zroe and the successful rescue of Suzuki Suzuki on the first night of the holiday and the terrorist activity in the following two days. There was no change in other people's lives at all. And Sei Itō, who did not go out to stir up trouble in these three days, spent all his time in the Rubik's Cube world, accompanying Ito Rina, who had been homesick recently.
The morning of the fourth day. After the three-day mourning holiday, Sei Itō came to school with Karin, who was waiting for him on the way.
"I am Suzuki Suzuki Suzuki, who will be transferred to this Ashford College starting today. Please take care of me," before the first class in the morning began. The teacher led Suzuki Suzuki, who was wearing a black Ashford school uniform, into the classroom and let Suzuki Suzuki introduce himself.
Although the students were very obedient when the teacher was present and did not whisper anything unpleasant, as soon as the class was over, the words that had been suppressed in the class immediately sounded.
"Did you see him …" "Why is he here …" "I heard he is a suspect …" "In the incident with His Highness Clovis, I heard that a total of five people were arrested …" "But he must have been arrested because of something suspicious …" "Could he be a terrorist …"
A lot of whispers and voices of suspicion echoed in the relatively quiet classroom.
"He is from Area 11," Nina said while staring at Suzuki Suzuki's back.
"He is an honorary Britanian," Leval corrected.
"But it's the same," Nina said carefully.
"But you can't just be afraid. If you talk to him, you will know who he is." Shirley didn't care about the difference between the people of Area 11 and the people of Britannia.
However, before Shirley could take a step forward, Leval reached out and grabbed her arm. He shook his head and said, "You're a little too active."
At this time, Lulu, who hadn't said anything about Black Wood Vermillion Bird's existence, stood up and walked past Black Wood Vermillion Bird. He stopped at the entrance of the classroom and glanced at Black Wood Vermillion Bird from the corner of his eyes. He raised his hand to his collar and continued to walk out without stopping. Then, as if she had received some sort of signal, Black Wood Vermillion Bird immediately got up from her seat and walked out.
While Black Wood Vermillion Bird and Lulu were catching up on the rooftop and the other students were living a leisurely life in the academy, Cornelia, as the new governor of Area 11, was leading her knights to eliminate all resistance organizations in Nippon. She was trying to track down Zero and avenge Clovis.
The next day, in the same classroom as before, the students who had been casually chatting immediately stopped talking the moment Heimu Zhuque entered the classroom. Every one of them avoided looking at Heimu Zhuque who walked in with her head held high. After Heimu Zhuque sat down, the students who were familiar with each other gathered together and continued to whisper to each other.
Sei Itō didn't like Black Wood Vermillion Bird when he first watched the anime, so he was indifferent to Black Wood Vermillion Bird's current situation. He just looked on coldly as the students in the academy used silent violence on Black Wood Vermillion Bird.
However, this silent violence was suddenly interrupted by the Student Council President Milay's broadcast in the afternoon. "I am the Student Council President Milay Ashford." Milay suddenly shouted, "Catch the cat! Catch the cat that is running around the campus. The activities of the clubs will be temporarily suspended. The clubs that work together will receive preferential treatment. Also, the person who catches the cat will receive a lucky prize, a kiss from the Student Council. Ahahaha, ahahahaha. "
In the end, Milay was very satisfied with the reward she promised and let out a unique queen-like laugh.
In an instant, the students in the entire campus became excited. In order to receive a kiss from their goddess, the prince, one by one, the students ran around the campus as if they were on steroids, searching for the cat that was running around the campus.
"They are so energetic." Ito Sei looked at the students running past him one by one and said with a smile.
At this moment, a cat with gray fur, one leg wrapped in bandages, and a strange mask on its head suddenly scurried out from not far away from Sei Itō.
"It's actually here." Sei Itō said to himself in surprise. Although Sei Itō knew about this plot, he did not want to ruin it. He did not plan to catch the cat at all. However, now that the cat was in front of him, it would be unreasonable if he did not catch it. Therefore, he quickly followed the cat.
"Catch the cat. After you catch the cat, give me the thing it's holding in its mouth." Milay continued to speak excitedly through the broadcast. After Milay, Li Lina's voice came from the broadcast.
"Well, I think its leg is not very good because its footsteps are a little strange. And … Ah, the cat's meow is like this … "Li Lina paused for a moment and then let out an extremely cute meow." Meow. "
As a result, the students who were already extremely excited became even more excited. One by one, they started to chase after him as if their lives were on the line.
"Eh, it's you guys." Because there were always ordinary people running past him, Sei Itō, who could not use his inhuman strength, could only chase after the cat at the speed of an ordinary person. After chasing it for a while, he finally caught up with it in a pile of chores at the corner of a staircase in the teaching building. In front of the pile of chores stood Karin, who was wearing a white shirt with a green tie with the Ashford logo on it. She was wearing a short black skirt, and Shirley, who was only wearing a beige school uniform with her legs completely exposed.
"It's you." Shirley and Karin turned to look at Sei Itō in surprise.
"I didn't think that the three of us would be the ones to find the cat in the end." Sei Itō walked toward the pile of chores and chuckled.
Just as Sei Itō was about to catch the cat, Shirley suddenly shouted, "Wait!"
