Chapter 122 ~ Enjoying the School Festival The exciting giant pizza dough tossing event successfully ended with a loud cheer filled with the excitement of Britannians and Japanese alike. Then, all guests were given the chance to put on the toppings for the pizza from the available prepared ingredients. And although Lelouch had given them the warning to not attract much attention, C.C couldn’t help it and joined in the fun, tossing cheese and pepperonis everywhere her lithe arms could reach on the giant pizza. Needless to say, she attracted a lot of attention, not only with her actions, but also with her appearance and the fact that Yuuji was with her. Despite wearing a disguise that covered her hair and eyes, the shape of her face and her body was still enough for everyone to recognize her as an incredible beauty and attract the eyes of many. Add to it the presence of the Ashford Academy’s number 1 most popular and handsome man by her side, she was bound to become the center of attention. And of course, she caught the attention of the journalist and people from tv stations who came to report on the famous and exciting Ashford Academy school festival, along with their camera. But, the moment they panned their cameras towards her, every single one of their cameras suddenly turned off and refused to turn on. “Tch...! What’s happening? Why did it suddenly break?!” “God dammit! This useless junk! It just had to break when I got a chance for a massive scoop!” “I need to at least take a picture of them! Boss is going to love them! Ah-! W-Why’s my phone not turning one?!” As all the journalists tried to get their cameras and phone to work, Yuuji quietly pulled C.C and Karen out of the crowd and escape before they decide to approach them directly. “Ah-! Y-Yuuji, there’s not enough cheese yet-!” “Ssh! I’ll buy you all the pizza you want later. Let’s just get out of here before your face is caught on national tv.” “...You’ll be feeding me those later on while we continue watching Tatsuya’s anime.” “Alright...” C.C pouted in indignance. But, she stopped struggling and let herself be pulled by him after he promised her a night full of pampering and pizza. Meanwhile, Karen turned to look at the journalists and tv people who were panicking over their broken devices. She then turned towards Yuuji and asked. “Did you break them...?” Yuuji nodded and answered softly. “Temporarily.”Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com Right before they could capture C.C’s appearance with their camera, Yuuji caused all the cameras and electric devices to malfunction and turn off temporarily by using his elemental sight and gravity magic to create a mini electrical field within each device, disturbing the flow of electrons within it temporarily. Karen looked at him half-amazed and half-shocked as Yuuji continued leading them into the main school building, where there would be less journalists and tv people. Although large events such as the giant pizza making and various outdoor games were set up on the courtyard outside the main school building, there were still plenty of interesting events happening inside. Each class held their own special event for the festival. There were themed restaurants, cosplay cafes, game centers, a haunted house, and various other classic high school festival events. For Yuuji and Karen, they were all classic events that, though interesting, didn’t really blow them away. Of course, given the scale of the event held by the most prestigious academy in Area 11, the quality of each themed cafe, restaurants, and activities were much higher. But, they still had the same familiar, youthful charm that the students themselves exuded through their excitement and amateur professionalism. As they walked around, enjoying the various events each class they passed held, they still received plenty of attention, just as usual. The distance between Yuuji and Karen was one of the reasons that sparked everyone’s interest within the group. They were classmates, and they were both part of the student council. But, that didn’t explain how close they were. Many had seen them together often recently. Or rather, they rarely see them not by the other’s side whenever they’re in the academy, causing rumors about their relationship to spread. But even more interesting was the girl in the hat and glasses. They’ve never seen the girl before, or at least to their knowledge. Although her appearance was slightly concealed, they could still tell how much of a beauty she was just from the shape of her face and her body. But what shocked them the most was how close she seemed with Yuuji. Was she his sibling that he invited for the school festival? Was she a friend from a different school who came to visit? Or perhaps... someone romantically involved with him?! Many of the girls wanted to approach them and satisfy their curiosity by asking them the burning questions they had in their heart. And perhaps... if they were lucky, even join their group to have a chance of spending this annually-held Ashford Academy Festival with Yuuji. But... most couldn’t overcome their nervousness and shyness to approach Yuuji. While those brave enough... were stopped by a single glance and glare from the two girls by his side. Meanwhile, the guys who were interested in approaching the girls, also froze in their place. With but a single glance from Yuuji, they all suddenly felt chills going down their spines that caused their heart to drop and their knees tremble. Thus, despite attracting a lot of attention, they were able to enjoy the festival in peace. They managed to visit several cafes, played some games, and even entered the haunted house. Though... perhaps the haunted house was more of a trial for all three of them. He smiled softly at them, which made them blush even more. But as he was about to apologize for teasing them, he felt his phone vibrate and heard a familiar ring coming from it. He pulled his phone from his pocket, and read the message. “...Ah, so she’s here too after all, huh?” C.C and Karen turned to him with confusion clear on their faces. “What happened?” Yuuji let out a sigh and answered the two of them. “Lelouch met the princess... Just like we expected.” --------------------------------X-------------------------------- With the Ashford Academy Festival ending with a resounding success, Yuuji returned home along with C.C and Karen, who decided to stay over in his mansion and be with him for the night. After having dinner, which included a few pieces of pizza they’ve brought home from the giant pizza event, they retreated to Yuuji’s room and enjoyed quality time together on his bed while the “Irregular at the Magic High School” played on the massive TV Screen before them. After a long, relaxing bath, the two girls had changed into their nightwear. C.C wore one of Yuuji’s t-shirts, which fitted her figure very loosely, with nothing else underneath. While Karen wore a tank top and hot pants. Again... With nothing underneath. Karen was originally quite shy about not wearing any underwear in Yuuji’s presence. But, it was extremely uncomfortable for her to wear them to sleep, and since she wanted to sleep with Yuuji more often, she tried her best to overcome her shyness and get used to it. Even now, she was still a bit shy. But she had gotten to the point that if the duvet was covering her, she could be comfortable enough to cuddle with him in his bed. As they enjoyed their time spent in comfortable silence, C.C suddenly rose up, propping herself up with her elbow, and looked over towards Yuuji. “Hey... I want to ask you something.” “Hm? What’s wrong?” Yuuji turned to look at C.C, and Karen, who was silently enjoying the movie, also turned her attention towards her instead. “I want to know... What do you think would happen when the Special Zone opens up?” A look of surprise appeared on both of their faces, not expecting such a question to come up so suddenly. Yuuji thought for a moment before answering with a small sigh. “If nothing goes wrong, then all would be well. We might even finish that last mission to liberate Japan from Britannia’s oppressive government easily. All that would be left is to maintain that peace and prevent the Britannians from usurping power from the shadow.” “...That sounded easier said than done.” C.C frowned before plopping herself back down onto his chest. Yuuji smiled helplessly as he began to stroke her hair. “That’s because it is. We’re essentially starting another war of attrition. But this time, it won’t be with bullets and knightmares, but politics and money.” With the money and influence they’ve gained through Yuuji’s investments, stock holdings, and Lelouch’s major sakuradite shares holding, the two had been laying in ground works to gain as much influence and hold on the economy that could greatly affect the tide of war within japan. And now, with the likeliness of this war turning into a war through politics and economy, they were ready for it. Some members of the Black Knights, such as Ohgi and Tohdoh, might also hold a high position in the new Japanese government and military, which they could use to deter the Britannians from usurping power and bolster their defenses. “What if something goes wrong...?” Karen muttered under her breath. Her voice trembled as she clutched onto Yuuji’s shirt. Yuuji reached around and stroked her hair as well to calm her down. “Then perhaps... We’ll have to be a bit forceful. But don’t worry... We’ll definitely attain the peace you’ve been fighting for for so long.” “Uhn...” Yuuji lifted her up and placed a gentle kiss on her lips to calm her down, before pulling her into his embrace. Then, C.C pulled on his shirt to get his attention and moved her face closer to his and closed her eyes. Chuckling inwardly, Yuuji gave her cute, pink lips a kiss and pulled her into his embrace as well. And they all slowly drifted off to a comfortable sleep after a long, long day.
