The boat cloaks the waves under the clear autumn sky and moves towards the sea.

Far from the southwest of Tokyo Bay, the island floating on the sea, Shigen Island. Although it is not a big island, it is also inhabited by people, and small-scale British Army-related facilities are also built on it.

Shumu Suzaku, who was following the mission, was heading to the warship on Shigen Island.

By the way, the purpose of sending to the place is to welcome the direct lord.

The Empire's Prime Minister Shnazel EL. Britannia.

The special dispatch guide technical department is abbreviated as "special mission", and was formed by Shnazel EL Britania.

Since Shunazel, who was visiting District 11 from his country, got news of Eufe's disappearance, he rushed over at full speed in advance.

Cornelia is now clearing out the rebels in Ishikawa and cannot escape easily.

That was a rebel who was completely different from the previous Japanese Liberation Front and the Black Knights. They were real parties. The prototype was Japan's former extreme leftist group and had collusion with the Chinese Federation.

As a very caring sister, Cornelia naturally chose to return to Zone 11 immediately, but she was still unwilling to win because she had consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.

With Dalton's repeated assertions, her brother Seonazel was about to inspect District 11, she barely suppressed her urgency.

At that time, she communicated with Shunazel and said she would ask him. Then she devoted herself to the battlefield and accelerated the process.

To express our welcome, we sent a special trip to Shinen Island to meet with Sinazel.

"But why do you need to be on Shine Island? It's safer to be directly in the Tokyo Concession."

In the second control room of the warship, Suzaku raised questions to Royd and Cecil present.

However, his attitude has not changed compared to before.

After learning about Suzarene's ability and contributions, Shunaizele specially promoted his rank to the rank of Major. Suzarene is now at a higher position than Cecil, and is in the same level with Royd, the highest person in charge of this deployment.

But even so, in Zhuque's impression, these two people are still their bosses. Perhaps it is because the mission itself belongs to an independent branch of the army and does not have to be bound by the class system. By the way, due to Zhuque's promotion, the ruling army is also discussing whether to upgrade Royd and Cecil each.

But at this moment, the relevant news has not yet reached their ears.

If it weren't for Shunazel's protection, Suzaku might have been regarded as a scapegoat and took the blame.

Manipulating the ship is actually not a complicated job. Cecil, who was standing in front of the communication dashboard, smiled bitterly after hearing Suzaku's words, and then turned his eyes to Royd.

"I also want to know about this question, why? Royd."

"Uh... Miss Cecil doesn't know either?"

Zhuque was a little surprised, while Royd, who was beside him, still showed a frivolous smile, giving a more surprising answer.

"Ahhh, actually, I'm the same."

"ha?"

Suzaku opened his mouth wide, and Royd looked at him like a professor facing a student called to take the oral test.

"As for me, I actually thought you knew, Suzaku. After all, Shunazel had talked to you alone."

"No—it's nothing. Your Prime Minister has not mentioned this matter..."

"Oh, then it's my turn to say it. But I haven't heard anything similar to insider information. His Highness Shunazel hadn't contacted me beforehand."

Sure enough, Your Highness hates me very much~

Royd pretended to be deep and slowly said to himself.

At this time, Cecil interrupted in an angry tone.

"Even so, are there too many loopholes in your intelligence management? His Highness Shunazel's action schedule has been announced online."

"Well, calm down. What you care about now should not be these things, but is there any news about His Highness Euphemia?"

Royd said with a smile and waved his hand.

"I haven't heard of any news yet."

In silence, Suzaku looked out at the outdoors. The blue sea was endless, and the shadow of the destination-style root island could not be seen, and the sun was dazzling.

Youfei, you should be in Lelouch now.

Lancelot's disappearance is related to Lelouch, and the one with that kind of combat power must be the Sunderland whom he had fought before. It is likely that it is Teacher Yu, and time matches his skills...

So, now Euphip should not be in danger.

No matter what, Lelouch would not hurt her. Otherwise, even Lelouch would not be forgiven.

Royd and Cecil walked out while Suzaku was in a daze. Royd, who was leaning against the wall near the entrance of the corridor, had a frivolous smile on his face as usual and said excitedly.

"How can I say it ~"

"What?"

"Although the situation seems calm now, something is still wrong."

Cecil doesn't quite understand.

"What's the meaning?"

"I mean the situation in District 11, the Black Knights, the soul of the Japanese Liberation Front who had just been rescued, and the rebels who were fighting fiercely with His Highness Cornelia in Ishikawa. It was like a powder barrel, but there was only a lead missing.

And now, His Highness Euphemia may have become the lead. And now, someone with a good relationship with His Highness Euphemia has no response. It makes people feel something is wrong."

Royd gently touched his hair.

"Let's make an assumption. For example, Cecil, you are a soldier of the EU or the Chinese Federation, but you are not from the British army. If there, your lord told you to die, what would you think?"

"this--"

"Although this metaphor is a bit inexplicable, the so-called soldier actually means that."

Royd's eyes hidden behind the lens were filled with complex emotions. After realizing this, Cecil also became serious.

“…What do you want to say?”

"Ahhh, nothing."

Royd chuckled and tried to get away with it, but Cecil did not look away. Now, the white-clothed chief had to shrugged his shoulders.

"What I mean is that Suzaku's reaction is unusual. We know His Highness Euphemia's feelings for him, and she seems to be choosing a knight recently. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Suzaku.

Now that His Highness Euphemia has been intercepted, he has no reaction. It’s not right, right.”

“…”

"Every time there is a war, he always reiterates that he is a soldier. Maybe he uses this sentence to alert himself, not necessarily.

But he obeys the commands but has no emotions. Because it is an order, he can do many tasks that ordinary people cannot accomplish... If he shows even a little bored or reluctant, I feel normal. However, he does not have that kind of behavior at all."

“…but.he—”

"Because he is a strict soldier? You are wrong, Cecil. He proves this way-"

The smile on Royd's face suddenly disappeared.

“As a person, there are flaws in some ways.”

However, as my Lancelot driver, it is more suitable for someone like him

——Royd said to himself.
