"I'll go there."
There was no hesitation or argument.
ZERO took the lead and chose the destination. Furthermore, from the looks of it, he had already decided to head to that magnificent palace from the very beginning.
Ray Mingkai and Euphemia did not object, and Shyamuna did not speak either.
Because she knew that in that majestic and magnificent palace, a man who made her feel faintly fearful was sitting on the throne in the palace, waiting for ZERO's arrival.
After watching ZERO step on the steps in front of the palace, Ray Mingkai retracted his gaze and looked at the other side of the ancient palace.
"Uffi, Princess Shyamuna. Let's go! Maybe someone has been waiting for us there for a long time. "
As soon as Ray Mingkai finished speaking, the White Cat, State Zero, appeared on Ray Mingkai's shoulder.
"I feel it. The thing we lost should be there. "
"The thing we lost? Is it those fragments of information? Or my … memory? "
Ray Mingkai asked.
"It's all possible."
As Ray Mingkai and the others approached the ancient palace, a slender and elegant figure gradually appeared on the floating steps.
"Marina, Princess Marina?!"
As soon as she saw the figure, the long-dormant memory immediately made Euphemia exclaim.
And this name made Ray Mingkai and Shyamuna show different expressions.
Ray Mingkai's eyes showed a hint of 'as expected' and secretly sized up Euphemia, who was a little excited.
He knew that in Euphemia's childhood, she was influenced by Marina's perfect image of a woman, which led to her developing into an idealist when she grew up.
Shyamuna, on the other hand, showed a hint of surprise.
She never expected that when Charles and the outsiders were fighting for this C world, the princess, who was rumored to have died long ago, was still alive in this C world.
Moreover, what surprised her the most was that she could not discover the fact that Marina was still alive in the C world. Until today, when she guided Ray Mingkai and Euphemia into the C world, she found out the truth.
"Long time no see! Euphemia, you've grown up! "
On the steps, the princess, who had a perfect image in the hearts of Euphemia, no, in the hearts of Cornelia, Euphemia, and even all the members of the royal family, showed a trace of nostalgia and a warm smile.
"Really, is it really Princess Marina? You're really still alive? "
In surprise, Euphemia took a step and trotted along the steps to Marina's side.
Ray Mingkai gestured slightly to the White Cat State Zero, and the latter nimbly jumped onto Euphemia's shoulder in a few jumps, looking at the woman in front of it curiously.
Of course, this appearance was faked by the White Cat State Zero.
"Uffi, I'm not alive. Now I'm just struggling at death's door in this world. "
Looking at the surprised Euphemia, Marina shook her head and showed a trace of sadness in her eyes.
"But, but princess, you …"
Marina smiled softly and raised her hand to stop Euphemia's words.
"Okay. Uffi, I know what you want to ask. Now I'm indeed dead, but in a sense, I'm still barely alive. It's just that I can't affect this world. So, whether it's Lu Luxiu or Nunnally, I can only watch them suffer. "
While speaking, Marina's face was filled with self-reproach and sadness, and tears seemed to burst out at the next moment.
"No, princess. This has nothing to do with you. It's just that the Empire doesn't care about the safety of Lu Luxiu and the others. I'm very clear about this. "
Euphemia's words made Ray Mingkai squint his eyes slightly.
This girl …
Under Euphemia's comfort, Marina gathered her emotions and looked at Ray Mingkai and Shyamuna again.
"Uffi, this is your Knight Guardian, right?"
"Yes. Princess. "
Marina saw through her relationship with Ray Mingkai at a glance, and Euphemia's face blushed.
"Knight. Is your name Ray Mingkai? "
Marina's voice came from above the stairs.
Ray Mingkai bowed slightly and said, "Yes. Greetings, princess! "
Ray Mingkai's etiquette could be said to have seriously offended Marina, but the princess didn't care too much about Ray Mingkai's etiquette.
The princess nodded and looked at Shyamuna.
"Although I've heard that there was a sect that separated from the Church hundreds of years ago, I didn't expect to meet the leader of this sect at this delicate moment."
After saying that, the princess raised her hand and bowed to Shyamuna.
"Nice to meet you for the first time! Your Highness Princess Shyamuna. "
"Nice to meet you! I'm very honored to meet the rumored Princess Marina. "Shyamuna's eyes flickered, and she took the initiative to bow to Marina.
Whether it was as the leader of a sect or as the princess of the Gilkstan Kingdom, Shyamuna couldn't follow Ray Mingkai's example and just walk through the motions.
After Marina and Shyamuna finished the greeting, she gestured to Ray Mingkai and Shyamuna to walk up the stairs.
"Come! Knight, Princess Shyamuna, His Majesty has been waiting for a long time. He is very happy to see you at this time! "
Along the way,
Under Marina's lead,
The people walking on the floating stairs were silent.
Only the White Cat, State Zero, lying on Euphemia's shoulder, looked back and exchanged glances with Ray Mingkai from time to time.
"We're here."
As Marina's voice sounded, everyone finally left the floating stairs and stepped on the platform at the top of the ancient palace.
Here, a figure like a small mountain stood in front of them. Among the women, Marina, who had an outstanding height and elegant figure, was as small as a cute kitten in front of him.
"Charles DI Britannia."
As soon as he saw the figure, Ray Mingkai's eyes flashed. The White Cat, State Zero, lying on Euphemia's shoulder also jumped to the ground, and the fluff on its body also stood up.
"You're here? Euphemia, my daughter, my princess. I didn't expect you to come at this crucial time. "
In the strong and deep male voice, the mountain-like figure slowly turned around and faced Ray Mingkai, Euphemia, and Shyamuna.
"Knight, Ray Mingkai, and the leader of the traitors who split from our sect, Shyamuna, welcome to the world of C!"
"Knight, Ray Mingkai, greets Your Majesty!"
Facing Charles, Ray Mingkai couldn't be too presumptuous, so he respectfully completed the etiquette of a Knight meeting a monarch.
"Mm. Ray Mingkai. You're just as I expected. Even if you were framed by those people, you can still rely on your own outstanding ability to forge a path. You have the ability and characteristics that most of the Knight of the Britannia Empire don't have. "
Charles nodded, and when he commented on Ray Mingkai's past performance with dignity, he looked at Euphemia.
"Euphemia, my daughter. You have a good eye. Although some people have recommended a lot of Knights to me in an attempt to get me to nod my head and choose a few of them to be your Knight Protector. Now it seems that they're just trash. "
Charles' praise surprised Euphemia, but it also made her feel doubtful.
In her impression, whether it was in her childhood or her teenage years, she had never seen Charles take the initiative to praise someone else.
The only thing she had seen was the tyranny and savagery hidden under Charles' unsmiling face.
"Father, you're overpraising me."
Euphemia calmed herself down and hurriedly lowered her head as she spoke.
"No, it's a fact." This is the truth. "Charles waved his hand.
Abnormal.
Definitely abnormal.
Ray Mingkai looked at the scene of a loving father and filial daughter in front of him and secretly frowned.
Charles would never do such a thing.
The Charles that Lei Mingkai knew was brutal and barbaric. He even had the ambition to fix the entire world in a past that could not be changed and remained in place.
Now, the scene that happened in front of him was undoubtedly the most abnormal of the abnormal.
"Your Majesty. Please allow me to ask a few questions. "
Shyamna suddenly stepped forward and asked respectfully.
A strange look flashed in Charles' eyes, but his expression remained unchanged as he nodded.
"Ask away! Our compatriot. "
"Not long ago, I felt that there was a change in C's world, so I wonder what Your Majesty's intention is here?"
"To prevent C's world from falling into the hands of that person from another world, and at the same time to protect the world we live in."
Unexpectedly,
Under Shyamna's inquiry, Ray Mingkai got a sentence from Charles that would never come out of Charles' mouth.
"Save the world?"
Are you kidding me?!
Ray Mingkai's gaze fell on Euphemia, but he found that Euphemia's expression was still the same. She did not ignite her will in her father's impassioned words and cheer for her father's decision.
"Uffi?!"
"Father. I have a question. "
Under Ray Mingkai's gaze, Euphemia slowly spoke.
"Uffi, do you have any questions? Maybe I can answer them for you. "The one who responded to Euphemia was not Charles, but Mariana.
"Do you know the current situation of Nunnally and Lu Luxiu?"
"They were all captured by that person from another world." Charles raised his hand and stopped Mariana from speaking.
"Captured?"
"Yes. This is our negligence. We originally thought that by placing Lu Luxiu and Nunnally in Ashford Academy and being taken care of by the Ashford family, we would get a very safe environment. "
Charles' face twitched, as if revealing a trace of sadness.
"However, we made a mistake. We knew nothing about the person from another world. Under our carelessness, Lu Luxiu and Nunnally were taken away by the person from another world who deliberately launched an attack. "
With that, Charles turned around and stared at the gorgeous palace that stood opposite the ancient palace.
"Now, everything we do is not only to save the world, but also to save Lu Luxiu and Nunnally."
"Lies."
However,
Euphemia mercilessly tore apart Charles' hypocritical face in the face of his high-sounding words.
"Father. Maybe you don't know! Just now, we were still with Lu Luxiu. We entered this C world together. "
As Euphemia spoke, she took a few steps back and distanced herself from Charles and Mariana.
"Uffi, you?!"
Mariana was stunned. She took a few steps forward and tried to catch Euphemia, but was blocked by the White Cat State Zero.
"Stop! The undead wandering in reality, go back to hell where you belong! "
State White Cat Zero let out a roar, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a snow-white lion with shining mane.
"You!"
Mariana was shocked by State Zero's momentum and subconsciously stopped.
"Anna, come back!"
Charles' eyes flickered as he watched the White Cat turn into a White Lion, and finally looked at Ray Mingkai.
"Sure enough. Has the power of another world hidden in your body finally awakened? Ray Mingkai. "
"Emperor Charles. Perhaps it's time for you to return what you've taken from me. "
Charles' words were undoubtedly equivalent to admitting that he already knew Ray Mingkai's identity from the beginning. Therefore, the lost item that White Cat State Zero had been brooding about was probably in Charles' hands.
"Return it to you? Ray Mingkai. See! This is the power you're looking for!! "
Charles showed a hint of ridicule. He suddenly raised his right hand and waved it with a clenched fist.
At the same time, a scarlet shadow rushed into the sky from the back of the platform and pierced straight toward the dome.
Moreover, inside this scarlet shadow, Ray Mingkai saw a very familiar light.
That was …
That was the unique brilliance of information fragments.
"Charles! Sure enough, you stole my things! "
All doubts were solved after the appearance of the scarlet shadow that contained the fragments.
"Yes! A few years ago, during the assassination attempt on Euphemia, you appeared. You appeared riding that snow-white giant lion. "
Charles no longer concealed or hid. Instead, he straightforwardly told the truth that only he knew.
"Not only that, when you saved Euphemia, you also sent this fragment that was enough to kill the God of World C into my hands. However, at that time, I didn't know how to use this fragment. "
"So, you used GEASS on me?! Changed my memory?! "
Suddenly …
A storm set off in Ray Mingkai's mind.
A circle of red light appeared in his eyes.
This was a characteristic unique to those who were drugged with GEASS.
"Yes. This is the inevitable result. Although you have great power, you have already exhausted a lot of it when you saved Euphemia. Therefore, at that time, you, who had already become a weakling, could only obey the orders of the strong. "
Charles slowly lowered his right hand. The scarlet shadow that rushed into the sky also slowed down. A few tentacles separated from its body and wrapped Charles' body in them.
"This is the last chance! Uffi. Follow my orders. Help me to expel that hateful person from another world. After victory, the Britannia Empire will belong to you. "
"Then, what about you, Father?"
Euphemia's eyes were very clear. She was not confused by Charles' promise that was equivalent to abdication.
"Me? It's enough for me to have World C. Uffi, I know your dream. So, take your Knight and help me! "
Charles's vision was very sharp.
After seeing the relationship between Ray Mingkai and Euphemia, he gave up persuading Ray Mingkai, who had already shown hostility. Instead, he launched a family attack on Euphemia in an attempt to save the country and pull Ray Mingkai onto his chariot.
However …
He was rejected.
"Father, I refuse! Although I don't quite understand what kind of relationship World C has with the modern world. However, I know that if I let father seize World C, then even if I become the Empress of the Britannia Empire, I won't be able to bring any changes to the Empire. "
After a pause …
Euphemia's gaze became extremely firm.
"The 98th Emperor of the Britannia Empire, Charles DI Britannia. I, as Euphemia Li Britannia, announce that no matter what your purpose is, I will ascend to the throne of the Britannia Empire and become the Empress of the Britannia Empire. I will lead Britannia, no, lead mankind on the journey to the sea of stars! "
"You're just obsessed with the past. It's fine if you don't want the current glorious emperor!!"
