Alisa's retreat was a signal, which was a signal telling Lelouch that he could use the power of geass. Although Alisa had previously agreed to Lelouch's request for his mother to use geass, Alisa still hoped that her mother could Accepting the power of geass after agreeing with her point of view, at least in Alisa's opinion, does not forcefully distort her mother's mind.
But now it seems that my last little wish cannot be achieved┉┉
"You forgot one thing Lady Angelina!"
"What's going on~ Sir Lelouch!?"
Lelouch stood up and looked down at Madam Angelina, the power of geass gradually brewing. When her daughter walked behind Lelouch, an ominous premonition arose in Mrs. Angelina's heart. When Lelouch stood up, this premonition began to grow stronger.
"The goddess of the Holy See and my lord are competitors┉┉"
Lady Angelina's beautiful face could not suppress a look of horror.
"For my lord, it is not a bad thing to have a battle between the goddess of the Holy See and the devil master to damage the strength of both parties, but this may affect the existence that my lord protects."
"The Kingdom of Saxony?"
Lelouch nodded: "You are a wise woman, Mrs. Angelina, but sometimes you still can't get rid of family ties. This is probably your only shortcoming and weakness."
The power of geass gathered into the shape of a bird in Lelouch's eyes. Madam Angelina stood up in panic. Even without being reminded, she knew that the different red light in Lelouch's eyes was definitely not a good thing, but there was no doubt that it was However, Mrs. Angelina painfully discovered that her daughter lowered her head and looked indifferent, as if she had acquiesced to everything that would happen next.
"Alissa┉┉"
"Let me help you make up for this weakness!" Lelouch said softly: "I have given this order in the name of Brittany, Angelina┉┉"
At this time, Lelouch turned his head slightly and looked at Alisa deeply with strange eyes, and then issued an order: "Listen to and strictly implement every order of your daughter Alisa!!"
What!
When Alyssa raised her head in surprise. The power of geass has penetrated into Mrs. Angelina's consciousness, and the powerful force began to distort and reorganize her mind. Mrs. Angelina's pupils turned slightly red, and her shocked expression seemed to be frozen on her face.
Lelouch looked at the situation and sighed softly. Now that he was reincarnated as a black dragon, his mental strength had also improved by leaps and bounds. When using the power of geass, he could accurately detect that Madam Angelina's mental resistance was even stronger than those of spies and spies. It would be stronger, if it were the former self. The power of geass may not be able to control Lady Angelina so smoothly.
Fortunately, I chose to be reincarnated. This world cannot be judged by past experiences.
"It's up to you to make the decision next ~ Alisa." Lelouch walked aside and handed the power to Alisa.
Lelouch's original plan was to issue a one-time order himself to prevent Lady Angelina from doing bad things. However, the one-time order may have loopholes. People controlled by geass power may inadvertently circumvent the order through other means. The best way is still to completely turn the other party into a puppet that obeys his words, but Alisa will definitely not be able to accept this. So just now Lelouch had an idea and changed his mind, making Mrs. Angelina a puppet who obeyed his daughter's words, and then he only needed to pay attention to Alisa's situation.
This not only ensures safety, but also minimizes the resistance in Alyssa's heart. It can be said to be a method that kills two birds with one stone.
Alyssa looked at her mother standing in front of her blankly at this moment. Now the girl felt extremely entangled in her heart. Even the anger accumulated from the previous conflict with her mother disappeared under this entangled feeling. Looking at her mother, who was standing quietly in front of her like a doll, waiting for orders, she turned to look at Lelouch. After getting the other party's approval, Alisa raised her red lips and gave the order.
"┉┉I understand. Indeed, the Westphalian family should not sacrifice everything in this game. This is not our family's fault in the first place."
"I hope you can understand this, mother. It's not that I don't want to take care of the royal family, it's just that┉┉this┉┉"
After receiving the power of geass, Mrs. Angelina immediately changed her original attitude. Alyssa agreed immediately to her request without even thinking about it.
"How could I blame you? Alisa, you did nothing wrong. Preserve the family and safeguard the interests of the family. As the heir of the family, this is what you should do." Mrs. Angelina held Alisa's hand tightly. Said with this kindness on his hands and face.
Seeing her mother's seemingly 360-degree change in attitude, Alisa finally felt relieved but also felt a sense of guilt in her heart. Controlling a person so easily and playing with his consciousness had something to do with the devil. What's the difference? However, at least he is the only one who can order his mother, and unlike Silvado who only abuses his power for his own pleasure, he only wants to save his family, not abuse his power for selfish desires.
I was not wrong!
Alyssa said quietly to herself in her heart. My mother is still my mother and nothing will change.
In the end, Alisa told her mother to keep everything that happened today a secret, and not even tell her father Jerson for the time being. Since the Westphalian family could not afford to offend the demon in the Golden Spike territory, they should try to avoid it. As for the charm, The Demon Queen couldn't leave the Golden Spike Territory anyway due to some special reasons, no matter how much the 'Alissa' who was under house arrest in the territory tried to seduce her. Anyway, the family will ignore it, and it will be up to the succubus queen to see what she will do.
"Mother, please try your best to persuade Princess Lefina not to go to the Golden Spike Territory during this period, no matter what the reason for the invitation." In the end, although she was determined to separate interests with the royal family, Alisa Still caring about one of the few friends in the royal family.
"I know, Alisa, you must be careful."
Madam Angelina caressed Elisa's face lovingly, and when she finally left, Madam Angelina said to Lelouch with respect: "Messenger of the ancient gods, I beseech you only as a mother, please protect me. Alisa’s safety.”
Lelouch nodded silently, pushed open the door, and walked out with Alisa, who had transformed into Shilevi again.
"You have a good mother, Alisa." Lelouch said quietly as he came to the deserted second floor.
"I saw my mother's figure from her body, the same love, the same tenderness. It's a pity that I can't go back to my mother." With a hint of sadness, Lelouch sighed.
Alisa looked at the pair of eyes filled with sadness in front of her. It turned out that as a messenger of the gods, he was not absolutely happy. He also had his own sadness.
“I have always been proud and grateful to be my mother’s daughter.”
When Lelouch and Alisa returned to the main banquet, many noble men and women were already strolling on the dance floor. However, when they saw Lelouch reappearing, many people paid their respects. No one knew that Lelouch What on earth were they talking about with Lady Angelina? But being personally entertained by the wife of the Westphalian family was quite a privilege for many businessmen and nobles present.
Now that the matter was done, Lelouch had no interest in staying in the venue anymore. He found an excuse to say goodbye to President Joseph and the somewhat reluctant Isis. Lelouch and Alisa boarded the carriage and met outside. Kenjiro, who had been waiting for a long time, embarked on the road back to the Chamber of Commerce.
The city that never sleeps and the city of death, this city really goes to two extremes.
Lelouch looked at the night view of the city and couldn't help but sigh. On one side were the lights in the upper area that seemed to never go out, and on the other side was the lower area that had long been dark as if it had been swallowed up by darkness. Extreme wealth and extreme poverty were like The city's boundaries are the same. Theoretically speaking, such a huge disparity between rich and poor should have planted a fire called riot in this city, but the fire could not burn. In this world, power is respected, and absolute power suppresses it. All signs of possible unrest.
"Hmm~" Suddenly Lelouch showed a subtle smile.
"What's wrong, Lelouch-sama?"
"It's nothing, it's just that some people are following us."
Lelouch said calmly. Kenjiro on the side quickly became alert. He slightly opened the gauze curtain and looked back through the single-sided reflective glass. Kenjiro vaguely saw an inconspicuous carriage following behind him.
"Turn right at the fork in front of the road, circle around the park in the middle of the street, and then return to the main road." Lelouch quickly gave the order to the coachman.
The carriage driver quickly acted according to Lelouch's order. After circling the park, the carriage behind him was still following closely in the distance. Now he could confirm that the other party was indeed coming towards his side, but that carriage The carriage just kept following at a relative speed and seemed to have no intention of catching up.
"You're just following us, do you need me to check on the situation?" Kenjiro, whose muscles were already tense, asked Lelouch for his opinion.
Lelouch shook his head: "No need for the moment. The other party doesn't seem to have much hostility. I'm afraid it's to collect some information about me."
Alisa also nodded in agreement. This kind of behavior is very common. She was also like this when she first came to this city as the eldest daughter of the Westphalian family. Whenever she goes out, there will definitely be someone behind her. Follow and gather intelligence. But usually the other party won't do anything too extreme. After all, there are rules in the upper zone, and those who break the rules usually don't end well.
"But we can't just let them follow us so unscrupulously. It's better to do a little investigation after we go back."
Soon the carriage arrived at the Silver Wing Chamber of Commerce, and at this time the carriage behind finally left wisely. (To be continued...)
