Chapter 49- Euphy

"Don't answer a question to my question," Lelouch asked in an irritated tone.

"More or less I didn't give that power to him it was more like a forced contract."

"Forced contract?"

C.C look at Lelouch as she took her clothes then lie in bed. "Yeah, a forced contract. After all, I only plan to give you power, but I didn't expect that man to extract a bit of my code."

"Code?" Lelouch asked with curiosity.

"Hey..." Lelouch called but didn't get any answer after waiting for so long. Looking at her face, he realizes that she already fell asleep. Helpless, Lelouch took a blanket then lie in the ground with an exhausted face.

A week after the Zero incident, Jack was in Britannia headquarters looking with a dazed expression. "Private Kururugi of the district 11 army, ID number 14-1075.

With the power of Geass, the identity of Suzaku is completely usurped by him. Controlling a genius hacker and Britannian upper-ups, Jack made Suzaku trace of existence disappeared to avoid future trouble to oneself.

"We declare you acquitted from suspicion of Prince Clovis's murder due to lack of evidence."

Walking in the city, Jack was in dazed as he didn't expect the power of his Geass to be this convenient, the problem that plagues him for so long is now completely solved. For every world, Jack needs an identity to move without being hindered by political or ruler of a particular country, so getting Geass made him satisfied. Although there's a lot of extraordinary Eyes like Sharingan, Death Eyes and more, Jack preferred Geass the most because of its many uses.

Furthermore, his Geass seems to be powerful than any Eyes from anime, and the two unknown power of his Geass appears to be powerful than he expected because after using his Sixth and Seven Geass Jack can surprisingly see a transparent line connected to people.

After observing those lines, Jack knew those things are called karma line. Knowing this made Jack quite troubled, as he felt himself turning to an OP character that can control people live in a whim. Shaking his head, he didn't think of it any further as being a GodLike character is not a bad thing, so Jack accepted this power with a satisfied expression.

But this power couldn't casually use as it made him hold his head as he endured the pain coming through his soul, so Jack oath to make his Soul stronger to use this power. Imagining himself controlling the lives of others like a God made his quite excited. "Please get out of the way!"

Then a voice distracts Jack from his thoughts as he raised his head and saw a pink-haired girl wearing a white skirt falling in the 3rd floor of the building above him. "Look out!"

Reaching the pink-haired girl with his hand, Jack caught her on his arms to avoid harming her. "You okay, are you hurt?"

"I'm sorry! I didn't think there would be anyone below." The pink-haired apologized to Jack as she didn't expect a guy would be there.

"Well, it's fine." Looking at the girl in front of him, Jack smiled knowing that this girl will be his ladder to success in Britannia, Euphemia Li Britannia.

"I didn't think that a girl would be falling from above either."

"Oh." Seemingly thought of something, Euphemia looks at Jack with an intense gaze.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Yes! Something is wrong!" Euphemia said as a brilliant smile appeared on her face.

'Philia!' An unknown voice called loudly making Jack startled.

Looking at her face, Jack felt something within his soul that made his heart pounded. Shaking his head, Jack looks at Euphemia with a warm expression.

"To tell you the truth, I'm being chased by bad people. So could you please help me?" Euphemia looks at Jack with pleading expression.

Jack assisted Euphemia to stand and held her hands then run deep in the city disappearing in the sea of people. Running quite some time, Euphemia roughly breath as she asked to rest a little while Jack didn't seem to be exhausted that made her look at him with an amazed expression. "Honestly, after running that much, didn't you feel tired at all?"

Jack unconsciously let out a laugh that made Euphemia pout her cheeks with displeasure. "Sorry, I trained my body well."

Hearing him apologized, Euphemia smiled and said. "I haven't introduced myself yet, have I?"

"I am..." Euphemia stops as she realizes her status differs than Jack, so to avoid the formalities of royalties, she shortens her name so that Jack would not recognize her. Unknowingly by Euphemia, Jack already knew her existence due to Anime, but he didn't tell her because this secret is not something he could share with anyone.

"Euphy."

"Euphy?" Jack said.

"Yes."

"I am..."

"You shouldn't do that."

"You're a famous person." Jack was about to introduce himself when Euphemia's voice prevented him.

"The son of Prime Minister Kururugi Genbu, Private Kururgi S...Jack, right?"

Although Jack took Suzaku existence, some people who were familiar with him can tell the difference between them, but Jack didn't worry about those scene as his Geass can make their memories altered anytime. So in whole Area 11, Jack completely replace Suzaku existence beside the Foreign Country but is a Foreign Country care about a significant figure like Suzaku in the past?

The answer is no because Suzaku didn't make any achievement and instead betrayed his country to work for Britannia, the Kururugi household already cut their connection between them and Suzaku that made his existence a lot smaller, and only known by people who's interested in their history. But such a person doesn't exist beside Euphemia who looks at the History of Japan, and it's ruler to make peace with area 11 because she didn't like war.

When Jack was about to say something, Euphemia heard a cat cry as she approaches it with care. "Are you hurt, perhaps?"

"Mew Mew." A smile appeared on his face, looking at Euphemia who was trying to touch the cat as she looks at it with a gentle smile.

Euphemia carried the cat on her arms as Jack approach with a smile then tried to touch its head with his hand. Instead of feeling a soft fur, a sharp fang bite his finger.

Jack loosen his muscle making it soft to avoid the cat from being hurt.

"Oh my." Euphy exclaim, seeing the cat biting Jack's finger.

Euphemia and Jack took the cat with them then bought bandage, food, and a lot of things for it. Sitting in the nearby stone stair, Euphemia bandages the cat's feet due to its injury.

"Do you dislike cats?" Euphy asked Jack with a curious face.

"Well, I like them, but it seems like they don't like me..." Jack was also curious. 'Did I get the trait of Suzaku, hated by cats?"

Jack tried to pet the cat, but it was turning aggressive, so he didn't force himself from touching it.

"And it seems to be one-sided love."

"Kind people are the ones who have one-sided loves." Then the cat escapes under their watchful eyes.

"It ran off."

"Euphie."

"Why did you lie earlier?"

"Are you concerned about me?"

"Yes,"

"Then please come with me for a bit!" Euphy took Jack's arms pulling him inside the city.

Going in various places, Euphy happily dragged Jack as she said. "Um, today is my last day off, so I wanted to see what sort of place Area 11 is."

"Well, it didn't have to be me..." Jack thought that as a princess, accompanied by a knight should be right, so why would he choose an Eleven to attend her?

"No, I am glad it was you."

"Oh, I see." Jack scratched his cheek with embarrassment as this is the first time an opposite-sex treat him like this.

"Jack, could you take me to one more place?"

"You may request anything of me, Princess."

"Then to Shinjuku, please show me Shinjuku." Hearing her request, Jack didn't find it strange, so he took her in Shinjuku.

Looking at the destruction of Shinjuku, Euphy felt her heart quite sad then a conflict attracted their attention.

"We're Japanese! Don't call us Elevens!" An Asian man looks at the Britannian Student fiercely.

"What are you saying, you lost to us, you dogs of the defeated country." The student said with disdain.

"You Britannian Devil!"

"Stop." Worried that Euphy will interfere with their business, Jack decided to step in.

The Asian man looks at him with change expression as he recognizes Jack while the Britannian Student face also change. "This guy..."

"So you're Jack who killed Clovis?"

"You idiot, it was Zero who did it!"

The Asian man clicks his tongue as he said with displeasure. "Tsk, this guy is only a slave, so what if he's an Honorary Britannian, acting so happy..."

"Selling out your pride, comrade and soul..."

"You still call yourselves Japanese!"

Jack was quite irritated, so he used his Geass to make them leave. If not for Euphy, Jack already beat them with his fist, leaving them disabled.

"Tsk, let it go." The Asian man suddenly said, making his companion surprise as they followed his back.

"Traitor."

Even after using Geass, Jack was still irritated on his tone, so he massages his head to calm down.

"Jack, are you alright?" Euphy runs toward Jack with a worried expression.

"I'm fine." Jack forced a smile as he looks at Euphy.

"It's not okay, my prime G and MX4 are..." The Britannian student held his camera with a sad expression.

"You're late. Geez, you're just an Honorary!"

"Why did you let them go?"

"You should have finished them off!"

"You've killed many Elevens before anyway, haven't you?"

'Damn, I will kill you!' Jack couldn't take it anymore, but when he was about to use his Geass to make Euphy shut her eyes for him to kill these people. Euphy slaps the man face. "I will not allow you to insult this man any further!"

"Leave this to me." Jack felt warn inside as he brought Euphy on his back;

Euphy was about to say something when her expression turn blank as she walks distance away from them. Seeing this strange scene, the Britannia student was about to act more unlawful, but a fist hit face that made him flew toward the nearby ruined statue.

His companion didn't react in time due to shock as he took a hit making him flew in the same direction after beating them to satisfy his irritation. Jack used his Geass to make them leave and forget this farce to avoid future trouble. Although eliminating them is not a difficult thing, Jack knew that killing is not the resort to all things, so this Geass made it quite helpful for him.

Turning his back, Jack saw Euphy looking at him with blank eyes, turning his Geass off.

"Hm, where are they?" Euphy looks at Jack confused.

Feeling quite guilty; "They left after seeing my fierce side."

"Euphy."

"Hmm." The girl looks at Jack.

"The world appeared to be a rather sad place, hunger, sickness, corruption, decay, discrimination, war, and terrorism and filled with an endless chain of hatred, so someone must break this chain!"

"Of course, I don't think that it's possible to get rid all of it."

"So I at least want this world without war, a place where you won't lose those dear to us, a convenient world I could leave without any hint of worry."

Jack said this word within his heart. After getting to know Euphy, Jack decided to change this world to her Ideal world.

Jack didn't know why but creating the world Euphy desired turn to be his primary goal while the origin Energy became secondary. Suddenly, the Universal Bead inside his consciousness let out a buzz as if agreeing to Jack decision.

Immersed with his thought, Jack felt his mind turned lighter and calmer. Euphy looks at Jack with a gentle smile as her heartbeat pounded then a blush appeared on her face as she looks at Jack with resolve.

Then a sound of explosions broke their thoughts as they turned their head to look at it.

"Let's go," Jack said to Euphy who still has a blush on her face.
