Chapter 2484: Strip Off a Layer of Skin
For an entire week, Xiao Ran and Saki Maski seemed to have vanished completely, with no one able to contact them. However, their disappearance did not cause much of a stir. Before leaving, Xiao Ran had already given Corgi and Selucius instructions. Although Lelouch had not known about it at first, he understood after asking Corgi and Selucius. With their assurances, Lelouch naturally did not think that Xiao Ran would never return.

Just as previously arranged, they made examples of a few to cow the rest, crushing every restless element within the European Federation. This included those forces that, seeing things turn against them, intended to break away from the European Federation and form an independent alliance once more. At the first sign of trouble, the Crimson Knights and the Roaring Lion Legion descended upon them and crushed them with overwhelming military force.
