Book 9: The Rebellious Apostle Chapter 012: Machine and Coins
Facing Lelouch's question, CC nodded affirmatively, "Yes, the other world is exactly as you said. There are not only elves, dwarves, orcs, but also little people and gods. It is a world of swords and magic, but on top of that, there is also a dungeon."
Lelouch was getting more and more surprised, "Even gods?"
"Of course, the gods came from heaven, entered the human world, sealed their own divine power, established their own clan, and happily blended with humans, dwarves, and elves. It is a very special world."
CC said this as he recalled what he had seen and heard in Orario.
“That should be a very interesting world.”
"That's right." CC nodded.
Lelouch then asked, "In a different world like this, is there some magic medicine that can make your body better after taking it?"
CC, don't laugh. "There is indeed a potion called Panacea that can cure any injury . I suddenly asked this question. Is it because of Nunnally?"
Lelouch's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly calmed down, with a helpless expression, "Have you seen through me? Yes, I did it for Nunnally. I hope to buy a bottle of panacea."
CC said while eating pizza: "You shouldn't say this to me. After all, I'm not the one who can go to another world."
Upon hearing this, Emiya couldn't help but laugh, "He didn't originally tell you that, he told me that. He was just testing me."
CC did not comment.
Lelouch looked at Emiya and asked seriously, "What price should I pay to get the panacea?"
"Hmm..." Emiya thought for a moment and said, "How about letting Nunnally marry me?"
"No, absolutely not." Lelouch refused without thinking, looking at Emiya with a vigilant look, "I will not hand Nunnally over to someone with unknown origins."
"What do you mean by a guy with unknown origins? Haven't I already told you that I am from another world? If Nunnally marries me, she will never have to worry about food or drink. She will live a life dozens of times better than the princess. More importantly, she will be able to stay young and immortal. More importantly, I will not marry Nunnally now, but in seven or eight years."
Emiya smiled and said, "How about this condition?"
Lelouch had to admit that this offer was really great, and it made his heart beat, but he quickly calmed down, "A man like you should not be short of women."
Emiya nodded, "That's true. I do have a few lovers, such as Hephaestus, Medea, and Medusa. But you guys who come from a royal family probably wouldn't care about that. After all, your father had many women."
"You're right. That bastard does have a lot of women, but that won't affect me. I want to find a man for Nunnally who will love her and only her for the rest of her life."
Lelouch said firmly.
Seeing that the other party had said so much, Emiya gave up the idea and said, "Well, since you said so, what I just said is invalid. I have the panacea, but I want to see what kind of conditions you want to use to impress me."
Lelouch was silent, his mind in turmoil.
Emiya chuckled and said, "Don't worry, take your time to think about it."
Lelouch nodded.
After enjoying lunch, the group continued to wander around Ashford Academy. Perhaps because he was a little wary of Emiya, Lelouch never took Emiya to see his lovely sister.
Emiya was not in a hurry either.
At night, after everyone had dinner in the restaurant again, Emiya said to Lelouch, "Follow me."
Lelouch didn't understand what was going on, so he followed Emiya, and the two of them came to an empty corner of Ashford Academy. Emiya then pushed open an air door.
It's this power again.
Lelouch seemed to be thinking about something. He followed Emiya, passed through the air gate, and came to the aircraft manufacturing plant of the Chinese Federation. He called Li Xingke and told him that he had collapsed.
Half an hour later, Li Xingke hurried over and bowed his head, "Li Xingke greets the Prime Minister."
At the same time, he glanced at Lelouch behind Emiya calmly.
Emiya saw the look in Li Xingke's eyes and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Are you surprised by the people around me? Then let me introduce you. This is Lelouch, the number one sister complex in Britannia. He is currently my partner."
Lelouch couldn't help but retort: "Who is a sister-con? This is slander."
"It's okay, don't be too shy, it's just sister control, it's nothing." Emiya pointed at Li Xingke and said, "You should know that the one standing in front of you is the number one lolita control in the Chinese Federation."
Lelouch couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.
Li Xingke's forehead suddenly showed several blue veins, and he couldn't help but tighten his sword, "Prime Minister, when did this humble official become a lolita lover?"
It seemed that if Emiya didn't give him an explanation, he would commit insubordination even if the other party was the prime minister.
Emiya said calmly: "Don't you like Tenko? Isn't Tenko a loli?"
Li Xingke suddenly panicked, "I didn't, I wasn't, don't talk nonsense, Prime Minister, how could I like the emperor, he is the emperor."
"Oh, man, let me ask you, is the emperor not lovable?"
"Cute." Li Xingke agreed subconsciously.
"Did you reach an agreement with the Emperor?"
"yes."
"That's it. You even lied to a seven-year-old girl. If you're not a lolita complex, then who is?"
Li Xingke now wanted to chop Wei Gong to death with a sword, and said with gritted teeth: "I just want to save the emperor."
"Guess whether I believe it or not."
"I……"
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. Are the things I want ready?" Emiya waved his hand, interrupted Li Xingke's speech, and got to the point.
Li Xingke took a few deep breaths, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "I'm ready, please follow me."
After saying that, he strode ahead and led the way.
Emiya followed closely behind him. Lelouch took a few steps forward and walked to Emiya's side. He ignored the previous topic and asked in a low voice the question in his heart, "Is this the Chinese Federation?"
"Of course. Why, are you surprised?" Emiya said with a smile.
"Ah, isn't that a matter of course?" Lelouch forced himself to suppress the shock in his heart. "It's just a door, but it connects Area 11 and the Chinese Federation. Doesn't that mean that if the door is bigger, you can lead your troops to raid anywhere in the world?"
Emiya had to admit that Lelouch's brain was indeed very useful. "Yes, I can open the door wider and allow a group of machines to pass through without any problem, but I won't do that."
"Why?"
"My goal is to revitalize the Chinese Federation and make everyone self-reliant, not to be their babysitter."
Lelouch curled his lips, disagreeing with this view, but did not refute it. Ten minutes later, the two followed Li Xingke to a warehouse. There were more than twenty seventh-generation machines placed in the huge warehouse.
Li Xingke pointed at ten of them and said, "These are the machines I prepared for you, my Lord."
Emiya said calmly, "These are all yours, take them."
Li Xingke's pupils shrank, but he didn't say anything, nor did he stop it.
Lelouch smiled bitterly and said, "There's no way I can take back ten machines by myself. I need manpower."
"No need!" Emiya raised his hand and cast the transformation magic he learned from Loki. Under the gaze of Lelouch and Li Xingke, he turned the ten machines into ten coins.
Then he gave the ten coins to Lelouch, who was fine since he already knew that Emiya knew magic. But Li Xingke was really shocked when he saw it for the first time.
"How is this possible!!!" If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would hardly have believed his eyes.
Emiya patted Li Xingke on the shoulder and said, "Nothing is impossible. The reason you think it's impossible is because you know too little about me."
Li Xingke couldn't utter a word.
Emiya smiled and said to Lelouch, "Let's go." Then, in front of Li Xingke, he pushed open a door, returned to Ashford Academy from the warehouse , and disappeared in front of Li Xingke.
Li Xingke was the only one left in the warehouse, like a stone pillar, unable to move for a long time.
Meanwhile, at Ashford Academy.
Lelouch followed Emiya and looked at the ten coins in his hand. It was hard to imagine that these were ten machines. "What kind of magic is this?"
"Transfiguration magic. Loki taught me that."
"Loki?"
"That's right."
"Is it the Norse god of mischief?" Everyone will think of that sentence when talking about Loki, even Code Geass is no exception.
"No, it's the God of Vice, but he is the Nordic counterpart in another world." Emiya turned around and asked, "I think you should understand what I mean."
Lelouch nodded, "I understand, but how do I get these ten coins back?"
"Don't worry, I don't have a permanent Transfiguration spell. The magic infused during the transformation is very small. After about two hours, my magic will wear off and the ten coins will return to their original form."
"I see, this is really convenient." Lelouch's eyes flickered a few times, "If you cast such magic on the battlefield, wouldn't it be easy to defeat the enemy?"
"Of course." Emiya nodded, "But it's only limited to you guys."
"Our group." Lelouch was stunned, then his mind turned and he immediately figured it out, "You mean, only magic can fight against magic. We, who don't know magic, can't fight against magic."
"Yes, that's right. Magic is a supernatural power, and supernatural powers have some obvious advantages over ordinary people. Of course, this doesn't mean that technology is useless. In fact, powerful technology and magic don't seem to be much different. It's just that the technology in your world is not powerful enough, that's all."
