Chapter 42: An eventful lunch.

Holy Empire of Britannia, 4:00 am

He was immersed in sleep when suddenly his smartphone on the bedside rang. Waking up abruptly, he slowly opened his eyes, took on a disgruntled expression, turned slowly and reached for his cell phone, thinking:

I hope she have a more than valid reason to write to me at this hour.

Looking at the display he saw the following message:

I found the book

He smiled satisfied, then wrote:

Perfect ... Now you have to reach the X site.

And where would it be?

Now I send you the coordinates ...

After this he waited for the answer.

Perfect. I have to go now.

Good luck.

He put the cell phone back on the mobile and after a few minutes went back to sleep.


At the same time CC was in her cell.

Shit ... You look at what trouble I got into! And this time I can't count on anyone: Lelouch hates me because I killed Kallen, the Black Knights want me dead, the British don't talk about it!

She thought, frustrated.

It could not escape by itself, that place was a well-guarded fortress and had to beware not only of the soldiers but also of the other SCPs, some of them lethal.

So should I rot here forever? Is this my fate?

She wondered nervously.

At that moment the cell door opened and Cat appeared, carrying a tray with a margherita pizza on it and a plate with fried potatoes and hamburgers inside.

"To you!" Announced the dark-haired girl, placing the tray next to her.

"Thanks ..." Said the green, slightly surprised.

"Nothing. We always offer the best to our guests. As long as they are not extremely dangerous SCPs."

"And are there many dangerous ones?"

"Almost all."

"I understand…"

"Now I have to go ... Enjoy your meal."

"Wait up! Did Tony ask you to bring me the meal?"

"Obvious."

"Thank him for me."

"Count on it."


Weiswolf, 12:30 pm

The canteen of the fortress was, as usual, crowded with people eating or talking to each other.


Ayano was eating in the company of Yukiya and Ryo. Every now and then she turned to look at a nearby table, where Ashley and his men stood. These spoke to each other, and gave her indecipherable looks.

"Sometimes fate is really ironic ..." The young hacker said.

"What do you mean, Yuki?" She asked.

"Until yesterday Europeans and British were sworn enemies, yet today they eat side by side."

Ryo looked around, noting that it was indeed true: there was a cordial atmosphere among those present, favored by the various battles fought together and by the fact that it was Christmas day, even if there were no exceptions. Among them were Akito and Shin, whose mutual hatred seemed incurable.

"Well, that's a good thing ... It means that we are cohesive against the common enemy, the aliens." Ayano stated.

"There is nothing better than a common enemy to unite people and nations who until recently slaughtered each other." Yukiya explained.

"Yeah ... Too bad that this spirit of cooperation occurs only in times of crisis like this, and sometimes not even in those."

"Ayano-chan, it's human nature unfortunately. And we all know how rotten it can be."

Ayano was about to reply, but noticed that Ashley was standing next to her.

"Hello!" He greeted her.

"Hello…"

"I can talk you?"

"Tell me."

"My companions and I would like to get to know you better ... So how about seeing us after lunch for the presentations?"

She looked at him unconvinced, did not trust. He smiled at her misunderstanding, winked at her and went back to his table.

"Are you going to accept, Ayano?"

"Yes, Ryo-kun ... After all, they seem like good guys."

Even though that Ashley looked at me like I was a succulent steak.


Damn ... The nightmare I had a few hours ago was really scary! It all seemed so real ...

Leila thought, shaken.

She looked up at Akito, who ate quietly.

Is it possible that I fear him more than Shin? It is true sometimes it takes on a disturbing expression, but so far it has always behaved well with me.

She shook her head, to get rid of those troublesome thoughts.

But how stupid I am ... He is different from Shin! He has a good heart, I'm sure of it!

"Commander, you are not eating." Said the boy.

Realizing that she was still holding her fork in mid-air, she started eating the dumplings again.

"Can you tell me what you dreamed of this morning? You were terrified."

Leila stopped, and for a while she didn't know how to respond. She looked down, worried.

"Then?"

Taken two-handed courage she narrated the frightening nightmare she had had, without neglecting the smallest detail. When she finished, she notice that Akito was staring at her in horror.

"It's chilling!" Exclaimed.

"If I don't know, I dreamed it directly ..."

"Commander, I could never hurt you! Neither you nor my companions! " He stated.

"I know…"

Akito sighed.

"I can't guarantee the same for Shin."

At that moment someone put his hands on his shoulders.

"What can't you guarantee, little brother?" A familiar voice asked him.

He turned abruptly, crossing his gaze with the hated older brother. He jumped up, staring at him fiercely.

"Never try to touch me again!" He ordered him.

"Oh, sorry ... Did I bruise you?"

"You massacred our family!"

"Aliens will massacre the whole of humanity if we don't cooperate .. Even if the idea alone makes me sick."

"I'm sick of having you near me!"

"But how, I didn't suck you so much before ..."

"DO YOU THINK THAT SEX IS ENOUGH TO LET US AGREE? I HATE YOU!"

He screamed it so loud that it turned everyone around them. These stared at them dazed, some like Anna, Sophie and Jean were even blushing. Leila had the same reaction, covering her face with her hands.

Idiot ... Now they will think who knows what!

Shin thought nervously.

Silence subsided for a few minutes, then Ashley asked:

"Lord Shaing ... You and your brother have ..."

"NO! We were three! Me, him and Leila! " He exclaimed embarrassed.

The blonde girl, red with shame, curled up even more in the chair.

"Draw your sword ... Let's have some fun!" Akito challenged him.

"Do you stop with these equivocal phrases?" He retorted, annoyed.

"I said unsheathe it!"

"Enough, Lieutenant Hyuga! Another word and I'll have you arrested! You've done enough damage already!" The European maiden scolded him, furious at the bad figure she suffered.

"Excuse me, commander ..."

That said, the boy sat down again while Shin joined Jean. The latter, although she was tempted to ask her captain for more details, thought it well to keep silent, fearing an irritated or aggressive reaction.


"Of course, Commander Malcal cannot be said to be pure." Klaus commented.

"Sometimes I fucked her too." Oscar said, surprising him quite a bit.

"Seriously?"

The bespectacled nodded.

"She's a whore ..."


Leila ... You really have ...

Ioan thought, stunned.


"Have you heard, Dr. Randall?"

"I'm not deaf, Anna ..."

"I didn't know that Leila liked sex ..."

"After all, all women like it. It's a very normal thing."


"But ... Leila is a slut!" Ryo exclaimed mischievously.

"None of your business!" Ayano said sharply.


I am dying of shame ... Now I will become the laughing stock of Weiswolf! I can already hear them calling me the whore of Europe!

Leila thought desperately.
