Nunnally Learns the Truth (Continued)

I didn't do what you're thinking.

He put down his teacup Yotsuba Miya and said slowly, "That girl named Nunnally likes you a lot, so I helped her out a little."

Helping her simply means amplifying Nunnally's inner feelings to the point where she can't help but reveal them.

Yotsuba Mahiro: "..."

This woman...

Compared to when I first rescued her, it's a world of difference. I remember she was always so cold and arrogant back then, how did she become like this?

Where has that dignified, elegant, and intellectual woman gone?

"Now that you've finished what you asked me to do, I should head back."

Yotsuba Clan suddenly stood up Yotsuba Miya and said in a gentle voice.

"Why don't you stay in this world a few more days? It's a one-month time limit~"

"No, Maya and others are still waiting for news from me. They are very worried about you and miss you very much."

"Okay, I'll go back after I finish things here."

Mahiro shrugged.

Since she wanted to leave Yotsuba Miya, he wouldn't stop her. Besides, staying here would only allow her to spend some time with him and fill the void of longing he hadn't seen her in so long.

These things can be done when we get back; it's the same as doing them when we get back.

However, Yotsuba Miya, after hearing his words, she gave him a deep look with a half-smile, and then glanced at the tightly closed door.

All done...

She didn't know how many girls Mahiro would bring back this time, but she was certain that it wouldn't just be Nunnally in the room.

The competition at Miyuki is indeed fierce...

Thinking of this, Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya had already taken off her bathrobe and changed back into the dark blue dress she had worn when she arrived.

"Her figure is really good Yotsuba Miya..."

Mahiro admired the scenery that came into view, he couldn't help but think of something.

Whether it's Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya or Maya Yotsuba, their figures are in no way inferior to those of young girls; they would at least rank in the top ten.

Just as he was thinking this, a beam of light suddenly appeared and enveloped Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya's entire body, and a moment later, he completely disappeared.

The fact that Nunnally was Mahiro away by Nunnally and did not return overnight did not cause any disturbance at the academy.

After all, apart from Student Council members, no one else would visit the villas behind the school.

Besides that, there's Lelouch attack on the Fukuoka base in Kyushu and fights the guy who claims to be reviving Japan by using the power of the Chinese Federation.

So for a moment, they couldn't pay attention to Nunnally's situation and didn't know what had happened.

Besides this, Mahiro also learned something else from Milly.

Nina went to visit Euphemia to express her gratitude for standing up for her during the hotel hostage incident.

Unexpectedly, the two women eventually came into contact with each other.

Hopefully, with her own presence this time, Nina won't turn into a vengeful madwoman again.

However, it wouldn't be a big problem if he really turned into a madman. Besides, he was quite interested in the antimatter missiles built using Sakuradite. If conditions allowed, he could install these missiles on Knightmare and use them as conventional weapons.

After all, he would always keep a helpful ally like Shadow Garden by his side, and he might even bring Akame and the others in later.

And in the future, when we will likely face some high-risk situations, it will certainly come in handy.

Just as he was pondering these things and preparing to leave, Nunnally, who had been settled in, suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

"Um... Mahiro- sensei..."

"Nunnally called softly."

Although their relationship has undergone a qualitative change, Nunnally doesn't seem to have any intention of giving up this form of address, or rather, she's not ready to change it.

Mahiro understood, so he didn't say anything. He simply turned around and looked at Nunnally's face, which now held a more mature charm than before, and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"... Mahiro- sensei, about our promise..."

Nunnally's eyes flickered slightly, and her tone was hesitant.

At first, Mahiro didn't realize what was happening, tilting her head with a face full of question marks, but seeing the longing and pleading look in her eyes, she immediately understood.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I almost forgot about what I promised you."

"It's okay, if it's inconvenient, actually... it's fine."

No, I'll tell you anyway.

Mahiro grabbed a chair, pulled it to the edge of the bed, and sat down. After facing Nunnally for a long time, he finally spoke:

"Actually, I don't know how to tell you some things, but your brother Lelouch is indeed doing some big things, big things that can change the world..."

He organized his thoughts and told Nunnally everything Lelouch had done and his purpose.

Upon hearing this, Nunnally's gaze shifted from initial surprise to pain, and eventually, her face turned deathly pale.

Her voice trembled slightly as she asked:

"Teacher, did my brother... really do these things? Is everything true?"

"Without a doubt."

Mahiro nodded, speaking earnestly.

Nunnally Mahiro, because in her heart, she trusted Yotsuba Mahiro far more than her mother, Marianne.

She asked that question just now simply out of instinct and subconsciousness.

However, subjectively, I also felt the same disbelief.

"Brother... you killed your brother Clovis, became an enemy of your sister Cornelia... and even wanted to overthrow Britannia... why did you do this?"

Nunnally couldn't understand Lelouch's actions, and this lack of understanding even made her overlook the Geass that could twist the will of others.

Unlike the previous generation, Charles, these princes and princesses did not constantly encounter internal power struggles within the royal family.

Although they occasionally have some arguments and friction.

But we're still family after all.

At the very least, to her, both Princess Cornelia and Lelouch Clovis were family, and she never looked down on them because their mother was a commoner.

Thinking about this made Nunnally's feelings particularly complicated.

Depression, anger, and sadness intertwined, pressing down on her heart like a boulder, making it hard for her to breathe.

Just then, Mahiro's large hand landed on the back of Nunnally's hand, which was tightly gripping her skirt.

Nunnally also subconsciously looked up at him.

"But no matter what, Nunnally, your brother Lelouch loves you deeply. Everything he did was for you, wanting to give you a peaceful and stable environment..."

At least, that's how it is so far.

Aside from investigating the truth behind Marianne's murder and seeking revenge against the Emperor with the curly hair, he was busy making a living for Nunnally.

"Mahiro- sensei, I don't understand..."

Nunnally spoke with grief and indignation in her eyes:

"I can't understand it. I never asked my brother to do such a thing, to use the power of Geass to manipulate and trample on people's hearts and dignity. I never expected my brother to become a murderer for such a thing. All I wanted was to live a peaceful life with my teacher and brother forever..."

As he spoke.

Nunnally's shoulders trembled slightly, and large tears slid down Nunnally cheeks like crystals falling onto her skirt, gradually spreading into dark streaks.

However, he didn't know how to respond to Nunnally's words.

Even though he knew very well that this was indeed Nunnally's own insignificant wish.

Moreover, it must be said that Lelouch and Suzaku Kururugi are quite similar in some ways; both are habitually imposing their own ideas on others.

For example, Lelouch projected his own thoughts and desires onto Nunnally.

And it serves as the source of their actions.

And Nunnally, she never held a grudge against anyone.

Even when she and Lelouch, who were already disabled at the time, were sent to Japan as hostages, she did not harbor the slightest resentment towards that emperor with the curly hair.

It was precisely because Mahiro understood Nunnally's thoughts that he was unable to say anything.

"Teacher, could you please stop my brother? I'll do anything, no matter what, just please stop him and prevent him from going down this wrong path."

Nunnally suddenly spoke, her voice full of pleading.

She knew Lelouch well and was even more aware of his abilities. Among his many brothers and sisters, Lelouch was naturally the weakest in terms of physical strength, but in terms of strategy, only Schneizel could consistently outmaneuver him.

However, with the help of Geass, who has the ability to distort others' wills and manipulate people's minds, no one will be able to deal with her brother.

Aside from the person in front of them, who had taught them for many years and was a top-notch teacher in terms of both ability and strategy.

However, Mahiro shook his head and said:

"It's no use. Ever since Lelouch obtained the power of Geass, nothing can be changed. I've asked him many times before, and he chose to go down this path himself. No one can stop him."

Whether it's you as my younger sister or me as her teacher.

Unless you kill Lelouch outright.

Mahiro didn't say those last words to Nunnally, but given Nunnally intelligence, she probably understood the meaning behind his unspoken words.

But neither he nor Nunnally wanted it to turn out this way.

In fact, he actually hoped that Lelouch would cause a bigger scene, preferably a complete upheaval.

Upon hearing his reply, Nunnally fell into deep thought, her lowered eyes dimming slightly.

Seeing this, Mahiro didn't say anything more, but instead got up and left the room.

"Welcome back, Mahiro!"

As soon as I came in after leaving Nunnally's place, I saw Kaguya Sumeragi greeting me with a cheerful expression, mimicking a wife from a TV drama.

Seeing her expression, Mahiro couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing, but ultimately he didn't laugh.

He simply replied gently:

"I'm back."

"Hey, kid, you actually know how to come back after all."

No sooner had she finished speaking than CC's voice rang out, and there she was, sitting on the bed eating pizza as always.

The way she looked at him was somewhat amused.

"How was it? You must have had a lot of fun after being away for a day and a night."

I wasn't sure if it was just my imagination, but CC's tone seemed a little jealous, as if she already knew what he had been doing outside.

However, Mahiro didn't seem to mind, and simply took off his clothes as usual, handed them to Kaguya Sumeragi, and replied with a smile:

"Yes, I'm very happy. But you, you haven't seen me for a whole day and night. Are you missing me? Or are you jealous?"

After saying that, Mahiro walked over, sat on the bed with a grin, and hugged CC's exquisitely slender waist.

"Hmph, who would be jealous of a brat like you! You even go after such young girls, you're really a pervert and a monster."

CC snorted in dissatisfaction, struggling to break free from his embrace.

Really.

Although CC didn't know exactly how he did it, he knew what CC had done.

Kaguya Sumeragi the only one who tilted her head, looking at the two of them with a puzzled expression, completely unaware of what had happened.

Time flies.
