Book 9: The Rebellious Apostle Chapter 011 Reaching an Agreement
Mi Lei saw that something was wrong and quickly squeezed over, "Everyone, please follow me. I will take you to participate in the Ashford Academy that we are so proud of."
Emiya said nothing, letting go of Lelouch's hand and smiling at Mireille, "Please, Miss Ashford."
"Don't be so distant. Since you are Lelouch's friend, just call me Mirei."
"Okay, Miss Mirei." Emiya followed suit.
The group entered Ashford Academy from the school gate. Mirei walked beside Emiya and asked with a smile, "Although our Ashford Academy is not a famous school with a long history, it does have some nice scenery. I wonder which one Mr. Gao would like to visit first, the student union, the teaching building, or the auditorium."
Emiya stroked his chin and said, "Speaking of the school, the first places to visit should be the rooftop, the empty classroom, the health room, the sports warehouse, the girls' locker room, the music room, and the basement."
Mirei was smiling at first, but with every word Emiya said, her smile diminished a little, and in the end there was no smile anymore, only embarrassment on her face.
Lelouch saw this and couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Don't bully our student council president, Mr. Gao . Do you have any misunderstandings about the school?"
Emiya asked back, "Don't these local schools have them?"
Lelouch complained: "Yes, it is, but this is a serious school."
"I didn't say Ashford Academy was a dishonest school."
Lelouch: ...
Mi Lei burst into laughter, "Mr. Gao is really funny."
Emiya also laughed, "I thought you were going to call me a pervert."
"No way, Mr. Gao is really humorous."
"Well, I am sure now that you have definitely called me a pervert in your heart, and more than once."
Mirei didn't want to talk to this guy anymore, so Emiya smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, Miss Mirei. Go and get busy. Let Lelouch take us to Ashford Academy."
Mirei couldn't help but look at Lelouch. Although others didn't know Lelouch's identity, she knew it.
After all, their Ashford family was the supporter of Lelouch's mother Marianna, and with the death of Princess Marianna, their family was swept out of the core of the empire.
Eventually, she could only come to District 11 to survive, and she was even forced by her mother to go on blind dates with various imperial earls and viscounts.
He even made a promise with his family that he would get married immediately after graduation and revitalize his family.
So Mirei played all kinds of games at school, was unrestrained, and even went abroad because she didn't have enough credits, using another attitude to rebel against her family.
Lelouch smiled slightly, "President, since Mr. Gao has said so, leave this matter to me."
Mirei looked at Lelouch with some worry, and when she found that Lelouch was not reluctant at all, she nodded and left with Rival and Shirley.
Only Lelouch and Emiya's group were left at the scene.
The gentle smile on Lelouch's face suddenly disappeared, revealing the demeanor of the Black Prince. "Then let me ask, what is the purpose of the new Prime Minister of the Chinese Federation changing his identity and suddenly coming to Ashford Academy?"
"Oh, you already know my identity."
"Don't treat people like fools. After all, you're not hiding anything." Lelouch said.
Emiya also knew that he had told Lelouch his name and said that he would take CC to the Chinese Federation to revitalize the Chinese Federation. It was normal for Lelouch to guess his identity based on this.
"I came here for Sakuraishi." Emiya said without hesitation his real purpose.
Lelouch certainly knew what a Sakura Stone was, but what he didn't understand was, "Since the Chinese Federation has invented a flying machine, it is fully capable of snatching Area 11 from the Britannian Empire. Why not just go to war directly, but have to sneak to Area 11."
Emiya nodded, "You can but it's not necessary. However, the Chinese Federation is currently undergoing reforms and is not suitable for war with Britannia, so I need your help."
"Me?" Lelouch's eyes flickered.
"Yes, it's you. You should have mastered some good chess pieces." Emiya looked at Lelouch with a smile.
Lelouch's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't hide it, he nodded and said, "Thanks to you, I did find some chess pieces that can be used."
At the beginning, Emiya took CC and left him on a truck, but he also relied on his GEASS to fight his way out and even took control of some of the rebels against Britannia.
Emiya said, "I need your pawn to help me raid the Sakura Stone mining base in Mount Fuji and get the Sakura Stone for me."
Lelouch asked in confusion, "Why do you have to rely on me? You can do this kind of thing on your own."
He had not forgotten that the other party had pushed open an air door and disappeared from his sight on the truck. Using this power, it would be effortless to raid Mount Fuji and take away the Sakura Stone.
If Lelouch had this kind of power, he could use decapitation tactics to kill any enemy.
Of course, Lelouch is merely envious, not jealous, because his current strength is also quite good.
Emiya didn't hide it, "Because I need someone to take the blame."
"So you came to see me?"
"That's right. You need to do something big to stabilize your reputation and get on stage, and I need Sakuraishi and someone to take the blame. Isn't this a perfect match?"
"Are you sure I will agree to you?"
"I can offer a high price for the Sakura Stone. Hmm, 30% more than the market price. How about that?" Emiya said with a smile, "You must be short of money."
Lelouch was a little tempted. His goal was to destroy Britannia. In order to achieve this goal, he was really short of money. If the other party was willing to pay a high price, it would not be...
Lelouch thought for a moment and said, "I can promise you, but I don't need you to raise the price. You can even lower it by 30%. I only have one condition."
"Oh, you're giving me so much in discount. It looks like you want to ask for a lot." Emiya said noncommittally, "Then let me hear your terms."
Lelouch said without hesitation: "I want machines. Give me at least ten. I don't need the latest flying machines, just slightly inferior ones will do."
Emiya smiled and said, "The latest flying machine is the eighth generation, and the slightly inferior one is the seventh generation. There are only a few in the entire Britannian Empire. You really like to ask for too much."
"No, it's a win-win situation." Lelouch responded.
"Okay, I promise you." Emiya nodded and agreed, "When do you plan to deliver the goods?"
Lelouch said, "Of course, when you handed over the ten machines to us. After all, without these ten machines, we would not be able to attack the Fuji Mountain Mining District, which is the most heavily guarded area in District 11."
Emiya immediately took out his phone and called Li Xingke, asking him to prepare ten seventh-generation machines.
Although the Chinese Federation cannot mass produce its machines due to Sakuraishi, there is no problem in producing a small number. Currently, the Chinese Federation has more than 50 seventh-generation machines, so giving Lelouch 10 is nothing.
As long as there are enough sakura stones, we can go all out for mass production.
Although Lelouch had a blank expression on his face, his eyes were full of excitement. With these ten most advanced machines, many of his plans could be implemented.
After the two reached an agreement , they tacitly put aside the topic. Like a group of real tourists, Emiya and his group began to visit Ashford Academy under the leadership of Lelouch.
At noon, a group of people were eating in the school cafeteria.
The food is not bad, of course this is only for ordinary people. For a man like Emiya who is used to eating glowing food, the food here is simply too ordinary.
He moved his chopsticks a few times and then stopped eating.
Lelouch noticed this and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Not to your liking?"
Emiya nodded, "I'm used to the food my cook makes, so I don't really like the food here. After all, it doesn't have any special features."
Lelouch couldn't help but complain: "You are such a picky guy."
CC didn't like the food here either, and said to Emiya, "I want to eat pizza."
Emiya nodded, made a pizza and placed it in front of CC, half for each. He still wanted to study the code that CC had, so he would still satisfy the other party with this little thing.
Lelouch asked in amazement: "What kind of ability is this? It's completely different from your previous abilities. Could it be that one person can have multiple GEASSes?"
"How is that possible?" CC explained while eating pizza, "Everyone can only have one GEASS. That guy didn't use GEASS's ability, he used magic."
Lelouch's heart skipped a beat, "Magic from another world? Are you really from another world?"
He said this and turned to look at CC, "You actually believed it. So he proved to you that the other world exists. Could it be that you have been to the other world?"
CC didn't believe in magic at first, but now he does. Lelouch thinks that this change in him is likely because he has seen a different world with his own eyes.
Emiya snapped his fingers and said, "As expected of the Black Prince, he has a sharp mind."
CC said, "Yes, I did go to a different world and saw elves, dwarves and other things."
"Isn't it an illusion?"
"Of course not."
Lelouch couldn't help but take a deep breath. The existence of another world was an unimaginable shock to him. However, he was the Black Prince who had received higher education, so he quickly accepted it.
"What does the other world look like? There are elves and dwarves. Could it be a magical world from the Middle Ages?"
