"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This is not good! "
The emperor, who had just left the throne, was stopped by the servant who rushed in in a panic.
"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered? "
The emperor glanced at the flustered servant. Looking at him, it was as if the sky had fallen.
"I'm very sorry! I've disturbed Your Majesty's mood! It's just that a piece of news came back from Europe, and I had to act so recklessly. "
"Europe?"
The emperor's eyes moved slightly, and then he sat back on the throne and said calmly, "Speak! What kind of news can make you so flustered? "
"Yes!"
The servant kneeling on the ground dared not lift his head, and cold sweat gradually covered his entire forehead.
"Your Majesty. The four Knight regiments guarding Europe have suffered a crushing defeat. Two of the four Knight regiments have been lost. Now the forces of Europe have been surpassed by the alliance led by Langlan Xi, and they have occupied an advantageous position. "
"Oh? The four Knight regiments have suffered such heavy losses? It seems that the beast does have some tricks up its sleeve. "
The emperor was not surprised by this news. From the beginning, after he formulated the strategy of luring the enemy with Cornelia as the focus, he had estimated that the losses would be heavy.
And the current news was far from the extent of the loss that the emperor himself had made.
"Two of the four Knight regiments have been lost? Well. It's not too stupid to be in charge of Europe. "
After the emperor estimated in his heart, he smiled and looked at the servant.
"So, is there any other news?"
"Yes."
The attendant nodded, but he looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Hmm? Why? Is it a news that you can't accept? " The emperor raised his eyebrows, looked at the servant and smiled softly, "Since you don't want to say it, then let me guess! The third Knight and the ninth Knight have suffered a defeat? "
"Yes! Your Majesty is wise! "
The servant did not expect the emperor to say the news he wanted to say, and quickly responded.
"Say it!"
"The third Knight and the ninth Knight sneaked into Langlan West Country according to the plan with the help of an insider and successfully reached the target location. Although the initial attack was very effective, forcing out the target's trump card, from then on, the situation of the battle had undergone an unbelievable change. First, she successfully infiltrated White Wolf Fort's special forces and lost contact with all of them. Then, the target, Euphemia, openly walked out of White Wolf Fort and even used an inconceivable method to cause the snipers we arranged outside to miss repeatedly. "
"Unbelievable method?"
The Emperor's gaze changed. He seemed to be interested in this.
"Do you have any information?"
"No. Due to the urgency of the situation, after the sniper realized that his attack was ineffective, he immediately sent a message to the third Knight and the ninth Knight to retreat. "
"So, the Third Knight and the Ninth Knight have safely returned to the territory of the Britannia Empire?" The Emperor asked slowly.
"No. For some reason, after the sniper sent the message, the third Knight and the ninth Knight did make the decision to retreat, but after Euphemia Li Britania took the initiative to announce her existence, they suddenly changed their minds and madly attacked a mysterious airframe. As a result, they were captured one by one. "
"Captured? Is that so? It seems that the enemy wants to embarrass the Britannia Empire! As the most powerful Knight of the Round Table in the Empire, they were captured by the enemy without being able to fight back. I believe that many people want to see this kind of joke. "
After that, the Emperor stood up, no longer paying attention to the sweaty servant, and turned to leave the throne.
Under the palace, there was a spacious space that was deliberately developed.
Fluorescent lamps were installed in an orderly manner at the top of this spacious space, lighting up the entire space with their own light. They also illuminated the rows of orderly arranged energy tanks that stood on the ground about one meter high and one and a half meters wide.
Below these energy tanks, there were fist-sized energy pipelines wrapped in insulating materials. These energy pipelines extended from the sockets below the energy tanks and were deliberately arranged in a certain arrangement, extending all the way to the depths of this spacious space.
"Hum! Hum! Hum! "
At this time, a slight buzzing sound came from the depths of this space, reverberating back and forth above the energy tanks.
"Zi … Kacha! Hum!!! "
Suddenly, with a burst of noise, the energy pipelines that extracted energy from the energy tanks suddenly burst into small sparks.
In the midst of these jumping sparks, a sigh came from the depths of this space.
"Failed again."
"Doctor. You don't have to be discouraged. Didn't you say before that no matter how many times you fail, as long as you succeed once, it is enough? "
In the shadow, a graceful figure walked out. She was looking at the man who was standing in front of the equipment with some regret and comforted him gently.
"Yes!" The man nodded, then raised his hand and scratched his somewhat messy hair. "But! Phyllis, if this drags on, I'm afraid that Charles' idea will come true. At that time, whether it is our idea or the idea of the emperor, it will all be for naught. "
"That's impossible! Doctor. "
At this time, a voice that could not be denied sounded.
The two were startled and looked back at the same time, only to find that it was the emperor who rarely came to this underground facility.
"Your Majesty. What wind blew you here today? "
The man, Doctor Cisali, smiled bitterly a few times.
"I've made a fool of myself in this state."
"No. Doctor. I'll leave everything here to you. You've worked hard for this, I won't blame you for it. "
The emperor turned back and looked at the ruins that were secretly transported to this underground space.
"Doctor. How much more time do we need to decipher the password here? "
"About a week more! Although this is a part of the ruins, it's not the main body of the door. If I have the help of the key of this world, my deciphering speed will increase a lot. "Cisali said with some difficulty.
Although in addition to his own work, he was involved in other fields, but for now, the conditions in front of him could not be compared to his real laboratory.
"Is that so? What a pity! The key of this world won't help us. " The emperor shook his head and said in a seemingly admiring tone, "No matter which world it is, the key will always be loyal to only one person. Although there is no difference between us, the key will always be able to tell the difference between us. "
"Is this the so-called fate? Forget it. In that case, I'll work harder! Your Majesty. "
"No. Doctor. I'm here today, other than to see your progress, there's another thing I need your help with. "
The emperor stopped the doctor who was about to start the experiment again.
"Oh? Your Majesty, please speak. "
Although Cisali was a little surprised, since they were allies, he nodded.
"I need your help. The Knight of the Round Table failed and was captured. "The emperor did not hide the failure of his side and directly told the truth.
"Oh? The Knight of the Round Table failed? That's rare! Let me guess. I'm afraid they met the lion? "Although Cisali had not left this underground space much, he still said the truth.
"Yes. Two of the four Knight regiments in Europe have been defeated, and two Knights of the Round Table have been captured. I believe that soon, the world will announce the capture of the Knight of the Round Table. "
"Oh? Haha. Do you want me to rescue them? "Cisali thought for a moment and smiled slightly.
"Yes. As long as you rescue them, then, they will be at your disposal. "The emperor's words were shocking. He actually promised to let the two Knight of the Round Table be at Cisali's disposal.
"Is that so? Your Majesty, don't go back on your word. I've long wanted to see what kind of warrior the world's strongest pilot can cultivate. "Cisali was surprised and said with surprise.
"Well, a promise is a promise. This is a promise made by the emperor himself. No one can go back on their word. "
“OK！ If that's the case, Filis, you should go to Europe! Well, bring Reagent No.3, Reagent No.5, and Reagent No.4! " Cisali pondered for a moment and asked Phyllis, who had been silent, to prepare the things for Europe.
"Your Majesty. Is there anything else? "
Facing Cisali, who showed a respectful look, the emperor glanced at the ruins that were linked by many probes and shook his head slightly.
"That's it for today! Doctor, the next step is up to you. "
"Yes! Your Majesty! "

On the other side.
As the lamp was turned on, a table placed in the middle of the interrogation room was illuminated from the darkness. On the other side of the faint light, two figures sat.
Ray Mingkai.
Cornelia.
After deciding to temporarily lend the two Knights of the Round Table to Zeon, Cornelia suddenly proposed to interrogate the two Knights of the Round Table.
Perhaps Cornelia wanted to know about Pandoragon, or perhaps Cornelia wanted to know why she was labeled as a traitor by the royal family.
Therefore, as her senior in the Officer School, the ninth Knight of the Britannia Empire, Nonette Aniagolam, was brought to this room.
"Your Highness Cornelia?!"
Under the escort of the soldiers, the ninth Knight, whose hands were tightly tied, was pressed on the chair opposite Ray Mingkai and Cornelia.
Looking at the shocked Nonette, Cornelia couldn't help but sigh secretly.
"Long time no see! Minister Aniagolam. "
When Nonette heard Cornelia calling her by her official name, she knew that Cornelia didn't want to use their friendship in the Officer School to threaten her.
"Long time no see! Your Highness. It seems that the situation between me and Your Highness has reversed. "Nonette revealed a bitter smile.
"Nonette. Relax. No one will hurt you here. I want to know some things, and I hope you can answer truthfully. "Cornelia's attitude was very sincere, without the slightest trace of a victor bullying a loser.
"Things?"
Although Cornelia was asking for Nonette's opinion, Nonette knew what Cornelia wanted to ask the moment Cornelia opened her mouth.
"Your Highness. You want to ask why the Empire labeled you as a traitor overnight, right? "
"Yes. That's what I want to know. Even though I already know that the 98th Emperor Charles abdicated to the 99th Emperor, I'm still puzzled as to why I was labeled as a traitor. "
Cornelia nodded and voiced the doubts that had been lingering in her mind.
"So it's like this? Your Highness. First, I want to clarify a fact. The 98th Emperor of the Britannia Empire, Charles DI Britannia, didn't abdicate to the 99th Emperor, but before that, His Majesty had already disappeared. His Majesty sitting on the throne now is the new Emperor elected by all the nobles. "
When this shocking news came out, Cornelia and Ray Mingkai were shocked. But unlike the shocked Cornelia, Ray Mingkai was already prepared for Charles' disappearance.
However, this was far from the time when Charles would use the Sword of Judgement. Why? How could Charles disappear so early?
Moreover, the Emperor who took Zero's Geass might have already made his move on World C?
"All the nobles? Then, among the Knight of the Round Table, how many people support the new Emperor? "Cornelia pondered for a moment before asking a crucial question.
What Euphemia was about to do next would undoubtedly put her under pressure from the entire Empire. Under these circumstances, Cornelia would naturally do everything she could to weaken the enemy's strength.
"Other than the First Knight who ignored the new Emperor's orders, the rest of the Knight of the Round Table faced the new Emperor with the intention of listening to him and not listening to him." Nunot revealed a bitter smile.
As the strongest Knight of the Empire, the Knight of the Round Table actually had such a day. This made Nunot, who was one of the members, feel that it was laughable.
"But, why did you and the Third Knight participate in this mission? Moreover, during the battle, you looked like you wouldn't rest until you died? "At this moment, Ray Mingkai, who had been listening by the side, asked the crucial question.
Nunot paused and then shook his head blankly.
"I don't know. What I remember is that when we met the new Emperor, the Third Knight and I did indeed accept the mission. But from the start, we didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the royal families. But … "
Nunot's brows furrowed deeply, a trace of pain appearing on his face.
"But, when the infiltration team was completely wiped out and we decided to retreat, the moment a familiar voice sounded, I lost consciousness. Only when I woke up did I discover that I had been captured by Your Highness. "
"Voice?"
Ray Mingkai raised his hand and pressed on the table. The wall on one side of the interrogation room suddenly became transparent with a whoosh, clearly imprinting the figure standing behind it into Nunot's eyes.
"Uffi … Your Highness Euphemia!"
Suddenly, Nonette, whose hands were tied, jumped up from the stool and charged towards the glass wall like a madman. He was like a wild beast that had fallen into madness as he rammed into the glass wall.
"Kill!! Kill!! Kill Euphemia!!! "
Nunot's eyes glowed red, his expression sinister. He no longer had the composure he had when he was talking to Cornelia. What was left was a crazed desire to kill Euphemia.
"Nunot!! Stop! "
While Cornelia was crying out in alarm, Ray Mingkai, who had long been prepared, took a big stride forward and chopped at Nunot's neck.
"You … Euphemia …"
Nunot, who had sunk into madness, finally fell to the ground.
"Kai, this is Geass?"
Looking at the unconscious Nunot, Cornelia thought of a phrase that Ray Mingkai mentioned.
"Yes. GEASS。”
