The Convergence of the World Lines

Nothing more was said that night.

The next morning.

Good morning, teacher.

"Ah, good morning, Nunnally."

Upon entering the living room, they saw Sayoko cooking in the kitchen, while Nunnally pushed her wheelchair into the living room alone.

"That's really rare, teacher, you actually got up so early."

The gentle girl in the wheelchair smiled, like a blooming sunflower.

"Where's Sister CC? Isn't she with the teacher?"

Where is my older sister...?

Considering C. C.'s age, she could easily be Nunnally's ancestor, yet she's being called "older sister"...

Mahiro laughed, but ultimately held it back and picked up a piece of bread from the table to eat.

"She's not up yet, but that's perfect, I'll introduce you to a friend."

"Huh? Does the teacher mean new friends?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Nunnally heard the door close softly.

Because of her loss of sight, her hearing became very good. Only after Mahiro had completely left the living room and she heard the door close did she withdraw her gaze, which she could no longer see.

This body is indeed inconvenient in every way.

However, Nunnally no longer grieves in a corner like she used to.

Because she still has her older brother and her caring and loving teacher, even in a world without light, she can still feel that warmth. Even though she can't see, she can still feel the presence of light.

Click--

Not long after Mahiro left, the automatic door to the living room opened again.

But Nunnally let out a small, puzzled gasp.

Is she... a girl?

The footsteps were very light, and the arrival of the other person brought a faint, elegant fragrance to the living room.

Immediately afterwards, her slightly cold little hands were grasped, and it felt as if they were pressed against her face.

It feels very soft and warm.

"Excuse me, who are you...?"

"Nice to meet you. I am Kaguya Sumeragi. You must be Mahiro, Nunnally -sama mentioned? It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Oh? Ah, yes... It's nice to meet you."

Compared to Kaguya Sumeragi's enthusiasm, Nunnally was clearly somewhat flustered.

However, it must be said that Kaguya Sumeragi is indeed a social expert. Even though Nunnally was clearly confused and shy, she gradually opened up under Kagura's guidance.

"I'm already fifteen years old this year! How old are you, Nunnally?"

"Ah... I... I'm fourteen years old."

"Huh? If that's the case, then I'm the older sister."

One was lively and charming, the other gentle and sweet; the two girls, close in age, quickly became best friends.

Mahiro stood at the door for a moment, then turned and left.

He has done all he could; the rest is up to Kaguya Sumeragi.

However, he hadn't gone far when he heard Nunnally's exclamation coming from the living room behind him.

"Huh??? Wife? You mean you're Mahiro's new wife???"

"That's right, just like CC-neechan, she's Mahiro's wife."

"Huh??? Huh?!!!"

Hearing their conversation in the corridor, Mahiro stumbled and almost fell.

What the hell are you saying to Nunnally?!

Chapter 283 The Convergence of World Lines (5.5K)

Ever since Kaguya Sumeragi met Nunnally has been laughing much more.

However, every time she saw him, her laughter would abruptly stop, her fair face would turn bright red, and her restless little hands would tightly grip the hem of her skirt.

He also spoke haltingly.

If we're only talking about being a wife, then that's nothing special for Nunnally, who was born into royalty.

"So, what exactly did you say to Nunnally?"

Inside the room, Mahiro, sitting on the sofa, asked Kaguya Sumeragi a question.

"Of course it's a secret between girls, we can't let Mahiro know."

Kaguya Sumeragi winked at him mischievously.

This girl...

"But it's strange, CC-neechan has been going out a lot lately. Aren't you worried, Mahiro- sama?" Kaguya Sumeragi asked again, her gaze unconsciously sweeping around the room.

There were only the two of them in the room at that moment.

When Kaguya Sumeragi woke up in bed, CC was already gone, and this happened every day.

There's no need for that.

After Mahiro reply, Makoto leaned back and sank into the sofa.

Recently, CC has been traveling very frequently, going out almost every morning and not returning until late at Yotsuba Miya.

However, even if the witch didn't say anything, he understood.

I guess he went to find Mao.

The idea was to eliminate the contractor personally before he could act, thus granting Mao a dignified end.

But just then, a knock sounded on the door.

"Knock knock knock..."

"Please come in."

Mahiro called out to the door, and then the door opened. Lelouch walked straight in, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Kaguya Sumeragi and immediately swallowed back what he was about to say.

He put on a handsome, model-student smile and said in a soft voice:

"Teacher Mahiro, I'm sorry to bother you. There are some points I still don't understand from yesterday's class. I hope you can explain them to me."

"Oh? There's something Lelouch Lamperouge doesn't understand? I suppose he must have been sleeping in class?"

Despite being told that, Lelouch maintained his smile, seemingly acquiescing to his statement.

Meanwhile, Kaguya Sumeragi Mahiro glanced at Kagura.

Kaguya Sumeragi immediately understood and stood up, saying, "Mahiro Masahiro, you two chat first. The weather outside is nice; I'll take Nunnally for a walk in the garden."

Kaguya Sumeragi tactfully left the room.

Didn't she know Lelouch's identity?

No, quite the opposite, she now knows that Lelouch is ZERO, something Mahiro told her on her first day here.

Lelouch, however, believed that his identity had not yet been exposed.

Kaguya Sumeragi was merely using her poor acting skills to complement his performance.

"Alright, Lelouch, tell me, what are the key points you didn't learn in class yesterday? I'll give you a crash course so you don't fail the final exam and embarrass me."

"Teacher, please stop joking with me."

Lelouch with a hint of resentment, and after Kaguya Sumeragi's footsteps disappeared, he sat down opposite her as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, teacher, I do have a question I'd like to ask. What do you think is the best way for the Black Knights to develop going forward?"

Lelouch went straight to the point and asked.

But this only elicited a sneer from Mahiro.

"I'm not trying to be mean, Lelouch, but aren't you relying on me a little too much? I'm just your teacher, not your babysitter. You even have to ask me about how the organization should develop? If you're this incompetent, you might as well just commit suicide. Forget about fighting against Egg Roll and overthrowing Britannia."

Although his words were harsh and full of sarcasm, they were all true, so Lelouch listened attentively.

It seems that the matter of the Narita Mountain Range is much bigger for Lelouch than he imagined.

It was almost as if they were using him as an insurance policy, hoping to confirm things again and again before proceeding with the next steps.

Mahiro, having grasped this point, sighed softly.

"Fine, for Nunnally's sake, I'll help you one more time... Sigh, I'm just too soft-hearted."

"I am extremely grateful and Mahiro my teacher."

Lelouch, who had once become arrogant over a few victories and achievements, bowed his proud head deeply before him.

"Alright, tell me, what are your plans?"

"Good."

As Lelouch raised his head, he revealed his thoughts.

"Now that the Kyoto Six Houses have been destroyed, I plan to take full control of the Japanese Liberation Front."

"Hmm, that's a good idea."

Mahiro nodded Mahiro agreement, stroking his chin as he said, "The Japanese Liberation Front, although its actions are no different from those of terrorists, was once a regular army, and its combat strength is certainly much stronger than those rabble soldiers, but..."

He suddenly changed the subject, saying, "Lelouch, I think what you want to take over isn't the Japanese Liberation Front, but rather Lieutenant Colonel Tohdoh, who has the reputation of a miracle and once defeated Britannia at Itsukushima, right?"

"As expected of a teacher, nothing can be hidden from you."

Even with his secret exposed, Lelouch showed no embarrassment, only a wry smile appeared on his lips.

Mahiro continued his analysis:

"If you just want to get Lieutenant Colonel Tohdoh, it's not difficult. I remember that the current commander of the Japanese Liberation Front is only a major general, I think his name is Katase or something... As far as I know, after the complete collapse of the Japanese Liberation Front, this guy also started to run away."

I heard that he sought help from the Chinese Federation, and the eunuchs of the Chinese Federation granted his request to flee..."

At this point, Mahiro paused, then said meaningfully:

"As for the reason for granting the request, I heard it's because Katase took a shipload of liquid Sakura Dite as a donation to the Chinese Federation for his escape... Tsk tsk tsk, this thief dared to steal my things right under my nose."

Lelouch, you understand what I mean, right?

"Teacher, you mean..."

Lelouch hesitated for a moment, but received a murderous glare from Mahiro.

Mahiro's intention is simple: to detonate the transport truck containing liquid Sakura Dite, killing that old bastard Katase!

Let's go see the demons together with his divine wind!

Moreover, the Sakuradite mined in Japan must be used within Japan; without his approval, no one can take even a single piece from him!

"Moreover, I think Cornelia must think the same way. Knowing her as I do, she definitely doesn't want someone who still has some prestige in Area 11 to go to the Chinese Federation."

"Do we share the same goal...?"

Lelouch seemed to sigh slightly.

He could tell that in their several battles, Lelouch had indeed had his spirit dampened considerably by Cornelia.

The main reason is that Cornelia's lineup is just too overpowered.

Not to mention that she can charge into battle on her own, piloting mechs and unleashing her power, she also currently has a guide weapon under her command, plus two Knights of the Rounds.

On the other hand, the Black Knights only have Kallen as a notable player.

No wonder Lelouch was so eager to incorporate the Japanese Liberation Front; whether it was Tohdoh or the Four Holy Swords, they were all formidable fighters.

"But this time, it's clear I won't be helping you. This is entirely your own problem."
