More than a week after the end of the Ashford Academy Festival, Japan entered a rare period of peace. All the manpower and material resources were invested in the construction of the Special Administrative Zone in Japan. So after more than a week, a majestic steel wall was built around Mount Fuji, separating the entire Mount Fuji from Japan. At the same time, more than 200,000 Japanese people from the slums all over the country rushed to the Tokyo Concession and applied to join the Special Administrative Zone in Japan.
"Is that Sei Itō -san?" On this day, Sei Itō, who was meditating in his room, suddenly received a call from Euphemia herself. She asked for confirmation on the phone.
"It's me," Sei Itō replied.
"Great, it seems that I didn't dial the wrong number." Euphemia first shouted happily, then said in a serious tone, "Sei Itō -san, I want to invite you to attend the establishment ceremony of the Special Administrative Zone in Japan tomorrow. Can you come?"
"Since Your Highness invited me, how can I not go?" Sei Itō first smiled and teased her, then replied, "So I will be there on time tomorrow."
"Great." Euphemia first shouted happily, then said apologetically, "Well, I have to call others, so I have to hang up first."
"Well, good luck," Sei Itō replied.
"Thank you, Sei Itō -san," Euphemia replied. Euphemia replied on the phone. Then, there was a soft click on the phone, and the call was hung up.
"Tomorrow? The soul energy of 200,000 people and the happy life of a girl. How should I choose? " Sei Itō closed the phone, leaned back on the sofa, looked up at the chandelier hanging upside down on the ceiling, and pondered.
"Well, what's bothering you?" After a few minutes, a woman wearing a light pink dress and a light green short-sleeved pullover with a large collar came out. Villeta, who was wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen with a plate of evenly cut fruits. She looked at Ito Sei, who was frowning and deep in thought, and asked hesitantly.
"It's nothing." Hearing this, Ito Sei lowered his head. His gaze followed Veletta's body as she placed the fruit platter on the table in front of the sofa.
"Oh." Seeing that Sei Itō doesn't want to talk about it, Veletta didn't ask further. She just picked up a piece of fruit from the small plate and handed it to Sei Itō. "Here you go."
"Thank you." Ito Sei took the fruit from Villeta and put it in his mouth to chew.
The next morning, Sei Itō got out of bed early. After a simple shower, he took out a suit that he rarely wore from the wardrobe and changed into it. He pushed open the door and walked out.
"Creak!" Shortly after Sei Itō walked out of the room, the door next to him opened. Veletta, who was wearing a white translucent nightgown, walked out of the room. When she saw Sei Itō, she asked in a daze, "Why are you up so early?"
"I'm going to attend the ceremony in Japan, so I have to go there early. If I'm late, I won't be able to get in." Sei Itō looked at Veletta's body with admiration. He said with a smile.
"Oh, when are you coming back?" Veletta still didn't realize that she was revealing her body.
"I'm not sure. It depends." Sei Itō shook his head and said. "I'm leaving now. If you're tired, you can sleep here. Also, don't catch a cold. "
She pointed at Veletta's chest and walked down the stairs with a smirk on her face.
"Bang!" The heavy sound of the door closing came from the second floor, making Ito Sei, who was walking out of the door, stop. He smiled with some banter, then left the villa without stopping and drove to the administrative special zone of Japan.
The special administrative zone in Japan was built around Mount Fuji. In other words, Japan isn't in the Tokyo Concession. It's in between Tokyo City and Daihatsu City. Therefore, it takes more than three hours to drive from Sei Itō's current location. Of course, that was only the time under normal driving speed. As the driver, Ito Sei naturally couldn't just drive at normal speed, so an hour later, the car drove out of the Tokyo Concession and entered the territory of Yamanashi Prefecture. Then, it rushed all the way to the outside of the wall of the administrative special zone under Mount Fuji. Along the wall, it came to the entrance of the administrative special zone.
"I'm sorry, sir. You can't pass through here." At the special entrance, a soldier in a Britannia uniform reached out his hand to stop Ito Sei's car and said.
"Wait, I'll make a phone call." Sei Itō said understandingly. He then took out his phone and dialed in front of the soldier. Soon, Euphemia's voice came from the phone. "Sei Itō -san."
"I'm in Japan …" Sei Itō looked around and said, "I'm at the north gate. I'm now stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate. Do you want to send someone to pick me up or call the soldiers to let me pass?"
"Sorry, I was too excited yesterday and didn't think about it. Wait, I'll ask Zenia to pick you up. "Euphemia said embarrassedly.
"Okay, I'll wait for her here." Sei Itō agreed and then hung up the phone. Then, he didn't make things difficult for the soldiers. He reversed the car and parked it on the side.
After a while, a short-haired woman in a gray and black business suit came out of the north gate. She turned around and looked in the crowd. When she found Ito Heng waiting by the car, she quickly ran over.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I'm Zenia. "The short-haired woman walked to Sei Itō and apologized.
"You're welcome. It didn't take long." Sei Itō waved his hand indifferently.
"Please come with me." Zenia didn't bother about these etiquette. She nodded, turned sideways and gestured for him to follow her, then led the way. This time, with Zenia leading the way, the soldiers guarding the gate didn't make things difficult for Sei Itō, so the two quickly passed through the gate and walked into the area of the special administrative zone.
Then the two walked through the corridor without stopping. They came to the rostrum from the side of the temporarily set up grandstand and entered the inner hall. Immediately, dozens of men and women in Britannia's clothes, who behaved like nobles, and more than a dozen people who didn't wear Japanese clothes appeared in front of Sei Itō.
"Thank you very much for coming, Sei Itō -san." Euphemia, who had been waiting in the hall, saw Zenia walking in first and quickly ran over to Sei Itō and saluted.
"You're too polite, Euphemia." Sei Itō said.
"Really, then why does Sei Itō -san still call me Euphemia instead of Yufei like my sister." Euphemia blinked and looked at Sei Itō slyly.
"Okay, Yufei. Then don't call me Sei Itō -san anymore, just call me by my name. "Sei Itō said helplessly. Then the two looked at each other and laughed.
"Go ahead, you are the protagonist today. Don't waste your energy on me alone." Sei Itō said to Euphemia as he turned his head and looked at the many nobles who were looking at them inquisitively.
"Okay, after today's ceremony, let's meet again. I'll introduce my knight to you." Euphemia said with a smile.
"Okay." Sei Itō agreed.
Then Euphemia turned around and blended back into the crowd of nobles.
"Eh? Sei Itō, why are you here? " Just as Sei Itō was looking at the people in the hall in boredom, a male voice sounded in Sei Itō's ear.
"It's you, Suzaku Suzaku." Sei Itō looked at the person who spoke and said in realization.
"I didn't expect to see you here. Why are you here?" Suzaku Suzaku didn't seem to care about what happened on the day of Shirley's father's funeral and said to Sei Itō enthusiastically.
"I received You Fei's invitation, so I came." Sei Itō said casually.
"You know You Fei too?" Suzaku Suzaku asked curiously.
"Yes, I know her." Sei Itō nodded in acknowledgment. Then, the two of them stayed together and chatted casually.
After a while, it was finally time for the ceremony to begin. Under the guidance of the staff, everyone walked out of the hall and came to the front of the rostrum outside. Then, they were arranged according to their social status and titles. Sei Itō's seat was worth mentioning. Although he wasn't an entrepreneur, a celebrity, or a noble, Sei Itō was lucky enough to sit in the first row with the best of the three. He was able to witness the establishment of the special administrative zone at close range, attracting the attention of the people around him. Even Suzaku Suzaku was surprised, not understanding Sei Itō's identity.
At this time, Euphemia, who was sitting in the front row near the middle, stood up from her two-meter-high high back seat. She lifted the edge of her skirt in a ladylike manner and looked at the empty seat next to her with disappointment. She was about to go down and read the order.
However, before Euphemia, who had made up her mind, could go forward and read the order, a commotion suddenly sounded in the hall.
In the sky above the hall, a knightmare with its arms spread out horizontally and its legs together, with three pairs of wing-like thorns on its back, except for the top of its head, shoulders, and all the sides of its body were painted black. It was floating in the air and moving towards the center of the hall.
Above the knightmare, Zero, who was wearing her iconic costume, stood upright with one hand on the knightmare's head that looked like a dog's ears.
"You're here." Euphemia whispered happily when she saw Zero appear.
"I'm here …" Sei Itō, like everyone else in the hall, looked up at Zero on the knightmare floating in the air and thought to himself.
