Code Geass: Man In The High Castle

Chapter 10

Back to Ashford Academy

Student: Madam president, is she all right?

Student: I don't get this Chinese Federation thing.

Lelouch: She said that she's sorry but she can't buy us any souvenirs.

Rivalz: She's joking about it?

Shirley: Thank goodness.

Lelouch: We should make an announcement so everyone knows she's okay.

Shirley: Thank you, Lelouch.

Lelouch: You're welcome, Shirley.

Rolo: Lelouch, got a minute?

Student: <Attention all students. This is an emergency update. We have confirmation that Milly, our student council president is all right! She's apparently escaped from the scene of the coup d'etat in the Chinese Federation under the protection of Knight of Seven, Sir Suzaku Kururugi.>

In another room

Rolo: Aren't you getting a little carried away with all this?

Lelouch: Oh, does it seem that way to you? I'm very sorry, Rolo.

Rolo: You're acting way too nice to everyone.

Lelouch: But I'm supposed to keep his relationships harmonious. Those were Zero's exact orders.

Rolo: Yes. And of course you're to follow his orders. But you're not to exceed your role as his stand-in. Remember he's very self observed.

Lelouch: Yes, I see your point. Afterall, I'm a woman who serve both Lelouch and Zero.

But it turns out, he is Sayoko disguised as Lelouch only

Villetta: <Sayoko, Zero is in danger right now.>

In the another place

Sayoko: He's in a stalemate with the Chinese Federation, right?

Villetta: Yes, and prince Schneizel just joined the battle.

Rolo: Britannian forces inside of China?

Villetta: That's right. The Knights of the Round have entered the battle zone. Not only that, German has joined the battle too. This is sucks

Back to Chinese Federation, Black Knights position

Tamaki: Our reinforcements aren't coming... what a...!

Ohgi: Calm down, Tamaki. We still have the Chinese empress as a captive. They can't just start shooting at us. And Mr. Alex say we need to wait their air support

Diethard: What is it?

Lelouch: Full scale bombardment.

Fubata: But that means...

Lelouch: Yes. The Chinese Federation intends to obliterate the Mausoleum of 88 Emperors and us along with it. As for the empress, they want her to die.

In Chinese side

Xingke: The High Eunuchs, they'd violate the sacred Mausoleum for their petty ambitions! All forces cease fire! Her Imperial Empress is inside!
