My Anime Girlfriends

............................................................

Six months later, one night, I looked at CC as she slept soundly, gently kissed her forehead, left a suicide note, and quietly left the villa, disappearing into the horizon. When CC woke up, the first thing she saw was the note I had left behind. It read: "To Xingyu: I'm sorry, Xingyu, I'm going to reincarnate. Although I can continue to stay with you, the circumstances don't allow it, so... take care. I hope to see you in the next life. Remember me. 'Tian' (天)."

After reading the letter I left, CC quickly recalled the life we ​​had shared over the past six months. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she gave a bitter smile, muttering, "Liar, you're a big liar."

Chapter 294 The younger brother is called Lelouch

The capital of the Holy Britannian Empire, which encompassed a third of the world's territory, was bustling with activity at Aries Palace as Empress Marian was about to give birth. The Emperor stood anxiously outside the delivery room, flanked by several princes and princesses, including the First Prince Odysseus, the Second Prince Schneizel, the Third Prince Clovis, and the Second Princess Cornelia.

Eleven-year-old Cornelia looked at the room where Marianne was and couldn't help but ask, "Eldest brother, second brother, why did Princess Marianne take so long to give birth?"

The more mild-mannered Odysseus immediately said, "Don't rush, Cornelia. These things can't be rushed."

Schneizel smiled slightly and said, "Yes, Cornelia, you're in such a hurry."

Cornelia immediately showed a blissful expression and said, "I just wanted to see my cute little brother and sister!"

Clovis looked at Cornelia, who was completely absorbed in the moment, and said, "Sister, I'm your adorable little brother too! How come you've never looked at me like that before?"

Upon hearing Clovis's words, Cornelia immediately turned her face away and said, "That's because... you're not cute at all!"

Upon hearing Cornelia's words, nine-year-old Clovis immediately looked devastated. Just then, the sound of a baby crying came from the room, and Clovis excitedly shouted, "It's born...it's born!"

Just as Clovis shouted with joy, another cry rang out. Clovis's happy expression froze, and he stared at the door of the room. Cornelia, standing beside him, said excitedly, "Two voices! It must be that Princess Marian has given birth to twins! That's wonderful! I suddenly have two little brothers and sisters!"

Seeing Cornelia's excited expression, Schneizel immediately smiled and said, "Alright, Cornelia, we still don't know if it's a boy or a girl!"

As they were talking, a maid with long, emerald-green hair came out of the room and said to Emperor Charles G. Britannia, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, it is two young princes." She then led Charles inside.

Looking at the two little princes who had been placed in the crib, Xia Lulu couldn't help but smile kindly. He asked the maid standing behind him, "CC, which one of them is the older brother?"

The maid called CC is none other than 'Witch' CC. She smiled slightly and said, "The one on the left, the one with the cherry blossom birthmark on her right arm."

Charlu looked at the birthmark on the baby's right arm and smiled, saying, "A birthmark? That's great. So what should we name him? The older brother will be Lelouch, and the younger brother will be..."

CC immediately chimed in, "Let's call the older brother 'Tian,' and give the name Lelouch to the younger brother!"

Hearing CC's words, Sharul said with some doubt, "'Tian'? Isn't that a name used by people from the Chinese Federation? Never mind, since you think it should be this name, CC, then let's use it! From now on, his name is Tian D. Britannia. As for his younger brother, he'll be called Lelouch V. Britannia." After saying that, he walked to Marian's bedside, looked at Marian, who was weak but had a smile on her face, and stroked her face with a smile.

Looking at the two tenderly cuddling, CC smiled slightly, glanced at the crib, and said softly, "I never thought I'd see you again."

Two weeks later, in the Aries Palace

With a smile on her face, Marian lay on the bed, holding the sleeping Lelouch in her arms, and said to Cornelia, who was lying by the crib, "Cornelia, what brings you here today? Aren't you going to study? Oh, and... don't wake up Tenten! C.C. just went out."

Cornelia immediately smiled and said, "I understand, Your Highness Marian. I have finished all my lessons for today, so I wanted to come and see Little Tian and Lelouch."

Marian looked at Cornelia, who was staring intently at the sky, and said with a smile, "Oh... you've even finished your etiquette lesson?"

In front of the person she admired most, Cornelia immediately put on an embarrassed expression and said, "Um...no, but...I'll try my best in the future." As she spoke, she looked at Tian lying in the crib and said, "Little Tian is so cute."

Hearing Cornelia's words, Marian couldn't help but smile gently as she looked at Lelouch in her arms and said, "So... where is Lelouch?"

Cornelia ran her little hand through her long purple hair and replied with a smile, "Lelouch is cute too! But... Tenten is even cuter."

Upon hearing this, Marian immediately asked in confusion, "Why? Aren't they twins?"

Cornelia shook her head and said, "I don't know either, I just feel that Ten is cuter than Lelouch." As she spoke, she smiled and touched Ten's little face with her small hand. Unfortunately, the baby called 'Ten' did not cooperate with Cornelia and started crying, making her flustered. As if by telepathy, Lelouch, who was being held in Marian's arms, also started crying.

CC, who had just returned to Aries Palace, immediately entered the room with a smile after hearing the baby crying. Upon seeing Cornelia lying in front of the crib, she walked over with a smile and asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Cornelia immediately pointed at the crying sky and said, "I don't know either, I just touched him lightly." As she spoke, she continued to stare at the crying sky.

CC smiled slightly, walked to the crib, hummed the tune of "Ode to Joy," and patted Tian's body. Soon, the young Tian, ​​along with Lelouch, calmed down and fell asleep again. This sparked Cornelia's interest in learning music. This is how Cornelia later became known as a military officer, but her piano skills were absolutely at a high level.

Chapter 295 Playing Chess with Cornelia

In the back garden of Aries Palace, Cornelia, dressed in a well-fitting purple knight's outfit, around fifteen years old, sat at a white round table. She frowned as she looked at the chessboard, her expression indicating the game was going poorly. However, sitting opposite Cornelia was an exceptionally cute little boy of about four or five years old, and beside him were two adorable little girls, roughly the same age, one with long pink hair and the other with brown hair. The pink-haired girl wore a white lace-trimmed princess dress, while the brown-haired girl wore a scarlet lace-trimmed princess dress; the two stood like adorable little angels on either side of the boy. Not far from these four, a blond boy of about twelve or thirteen, looking exactly like the boy, was also playing chess.

"Checkmate!" The little boy moved the chess piece in his hand and said in a cute childish voice, but there was a hint of coldness in his tone.

Looking at the checkmated game, Cornelia couldn't help but show a distressed expression. She said dejectedly, "I lost. I lost again! After studying with Brother Schneizel for over a week... I've lost to my adorable little Tiantian once more..." Suddenly, Cornelia slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and looked at the little boy sitting opposite her, saying, "My adorable little Tiantian, can't this count?"

Four-year-old Tian looked at Cornelia's pleading face and shook his head without thinking, saying, "No, you're the one who wanted to decide the outcome with chess. You have to keep your promise. You're not allowed to hug me, touch me, or kiss me today."

Cornelia looked at the slightly 'cool' little boy in front of her and pleaded again, "Then... let's play another round?" As she spoke, she frantically winked at the little girls lying next to the boy and whispered, "Euphie, Nanali..."

The little girl in pink was Cornelia's younger sister, Euphemia Li Britannia, the third princess of the British Empire. She immediately tugged at Tian's clothes as he sat on the chair and said in a cute voice, "Brother Tian, ​​please say yes to your sister this time!"

The brown-haired Nanali tugged at Tian's clothes and said weakly, "Brother." Then she looked at young Tian with bright eyes.

With the help of two new forces, Cornelia finally got another chance. The young Tian looked at Cornelia, who was full of expectations, and said, "You can do it again, but if you lose to me again, you can't come within two meters of me."

Seeing that Tian had agreed, Cornelia, disregarding his conditions, immediately nodded and said, "No problem. If I win, my conditions remain the same." She stood up and declared with great confidence, "In the name of my Second Princess, Cornelia Li Britain, I will surely win!" With that, she began her second match against Tian.

Ten minutes later, after putting down the black chess piece in his hand, the young Tian looked at Cornelia opposite him and said coldly, "Checkmate! Then... Royal Sister, please step back a little, remember, two meters away!"

After seeing Cornelia lose, Euphemia and Nunnally, still childlike at heart, didn't know to comfort her. Instead, they continued to pester young Ten, asking him to play games with them.

Tian, ​​who had been wearing a cold expression, suddenly softened when he saw Yuffie and Nunnally clinging to him, revealing a gentle smile. This made Cornelia, who was already feeling down, even more depressed. Standing to the side, she covered her rapidly developing breasts and muttered, "Why did I have to grow up? Not only are they in the way, but now, my cute little Tian doesn't like me anymore because of this. I really envy Yuffie!" As she spoke, she turned to look at Yuffie and Nunnally's petite figures. Thinking of this, Cornelia picked up the snacks on the table and ate them listlessly.

Why would Cornelia say that? Because Tian, ​​ever since he was a toddler, has been cold and distant towards Cornelia. No matter how much she tries to coax him, Tian simply doesn't like her. Not only that, Tian is also a terrifyingly gifted genius. At the age of four, he has already mastered all the knowledge required for high school, and he shockingly declared, "I hate big, beautiful older sisters and aunties, except for my mother."

Seeing Cornelia eating snacks, Clovis, who was playing chess with Lelouch, couldn't help but laugh and say, "Big sister, your chess skills are really terrible. You actually lost to Xiaotian." As she spoke, she picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip.

However, Lelouch seemed to show no respect for Clovis. When Clovis mocked Cornelia, the four-year-old boy smiled, put down his chess piece, and said with a smile, "General, brother, you have lost."

"Pfft... What?" Clovis, who was drinking tea, spat it out and looked at Lelouch in surprise.

Lelouch immediately smiled and pointed to the chessboard, saying, "Brother Clovis, you've lost!"

Seeing his elation at the impending defeat, Clovis, who had just been boasting, immediately fell from grace and said in disbelief, "No way! When did Lelouch become so strong? I beat you so easily last time!"

Seeing Clovis's incredulous expression, Lelouch immediately smiled and pointed to the sky beside him, saying, "Brother, you taught me that."

Clovis turned his head and saw little Tian sitting on the lawn, holding a book almost as heavy as himself, telling a story to Euphemia and Nunnally. He couldn't help but cover his forehead and shout, "Oh my god! Why are they my brothers?!"

Seeing Xiao Tian telling a story to her younger sister, Cornelia couldn't help but smile and slowly approach the group. However, just as she entered within two meters, Xiao Tian, ​​who was telling the story, said without turning her head, "Sister Cornelia, you've broken the rules."

Cornelia, who was convinced she hadn't made a sound, immediately asked in confusion, "Little Tian, ​​how did you know?"

Little Tian pointed directly at the book in her hand and said, "Your shadow is reflected on the book." Then she continued telling stories to her two younger sisters.

Cornelia looked at Tian, ​​who was speaking, and couldn't help but purse her lips, revealing a girlish expression. She asked in confusion, "Little Tian, ​​tell me, besides the reasons you mentioned, why do you hate your older sister so much?"

When Tian heard Cornelia's question, he couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression before saying, "I don't know either." Then he continued to tell Yuffie and Nunnally the story with a smile.

Chapter 296 Dancing with Cornelia

Inside the rather large bathroom of the Aries Palace, two identical, exquisitely beautiful children were helping each other wash their bodies. Lelouch, who was helping Tian wash his back, asked with a curious expression, "Brother, why do you hate Princess Cornelia so much?"

When asked, Lelouch slowly turned his face, looking at his younger brother's face, which was exactly the same as his own, with his deep purple eyes. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "Lelouch... I don't actually hate my older sister. I like everyone, just like I like Euphemia. But... I don't know why I feel so repulsed by her."

Hearing this, Lelouch thought for a moment, trying to decipher the meaning behind his brother's words. Then he rinsed the foam off his body with hot water and asked with a smile, "Oh, so you still like Princess Cornelia, huh? Hehehe... Princess Cornelia would be very happy if she knew you said that."

When Tian, ​​whose head was being drenched in hot water, heard Lelouch's words, a look of doubt appeared on his calm face. He then nodded slightly and said in a flat tone, "Well, probably!" As he spoke, he stood up, let Lelouch sit in front of him, and carefully wiped his back. If an outsider were to see the two wiping each other's backs, they would surely notice that their movements and expressions were almost identical.

..............................

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye. Today is Cornelia's coming-of-age ceremony. The Gemini Palace is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and beautiful musical notes are playing everywhere. Almost all the nobles above the rank of viscount are present, and with Cornelia's connections in the military, a large number of generals and marshals have also come.

"The Holy British Emperor has arrived."

"Your Majesty, may you be well." The scene of everyone bowing at the same time was spectacular.

"Today is the birthday of my daughter, the Second Princess Cornelia. All of you present are the elite of the British Empire; I am very pleased that you can celebrate my daughter's birthday..." His Majesty's opening remarks were somber and devoid of any festive atmosphere.

Among the banquet attendees, only seven-year-old Tian and Lulu stood in the crowd dressed in white evening gowns. Not only did they look alike, but their expressions were also very similar, causing some noble ladies to show fascination. If they weren't princes, they probably would have already been taken away by the person with the special hobby.

Lelouch looked at the cold-faced Tian and couldn't help but tug at his sleeve, asking, "Brother, please bear with it a little longer. The banquet is about to begin, and Father has already arrived."

With a cold expression, Tian immediately turned to Lelouch and said, "Don't worry, Lelouch, today is my sister's coming-of-age ceremony. I won't sneak away because I'm a gentleman." As he spoke, he struck a very gentlemanly pose.

Schneizel, observing Tian's expression, couldn't help but smile and say, "Tian, ​​once the banquet begins, as her beloved younger brother, you must remember to invite Cornelia to dance the first dance, understand?"

Although Tianxin was unwilling, he could only nod and say, "Understood, Your Majesty!" because the other party was his elder brother.

As they were speaking, the master of ceremonies called out again, "Please welcome Her Highness Princess Cornelia Li. Britannia, the Second Princess of the Holy British Empire."

As soon as she finished speaking, Cornelia, beaming with smiles, appeared before everyone, leading seven-year-old Euphemia. Three years of military service had given the princess a touch of military bearing, but she had changed her usual style, wearing a white dress. The smooth fabric allowed the skirt to drape gracefully, hugging Cornelia's body and highlighting her tall figure perfectly. The open collar revealed her white neck, shimmering with a jade-like luster, subtly revealing just the right amount of skin, making her already high and rounded breasts even more perky and rounded. Looking down the smooth fabric, her slender waist and rounded breasts formed a curve that could take any man's breath away. Coupled with her long purple hair hanging down her chest, those who were used to seeing Cornelia in knightly attire couldn't help but feel a sense of amazement.

At this moment, Cornelia's face was radiant with a beautiful smile, like a delicate rose. Only on her birthday did she have the chance to get close to her younger brother, Tian D. Britannia, whom she normally wouldn't even let her touch.

"Sister, you look so beautiful today!" Seven-year-old Yuffie, dressed in a well-fitting princess dress, looked incredibly cute. When she saw her older sister, who looked completely different from usual, she couldn't help but exclaim.

Hearing her younger sister say that, Cornelia smiled, patted Euphemia's head, and asked with a smile, "Really, Euphemia? Is your older sister really that pretty?"

Yuffie immediately tapped her cute little face and said, "Really, this older sister is so pretty! Brother Xiaotian will definitely like her."

Hearing Euphemia's affirmative answer, Cornelia smiled and took Euphemia's small hand, leading her into the hall. As the music began, a slightly petite figure appeared before Cornelia—it was Tian, ​​dressed in a white evening suit. He lowered his head slightly, his right fist clenched, his right arm bent in front of his chest, then slowly raised his head, meeting Cornelia's 'affectionate' eyes, and extended his right hand, saying, "May I dance with you, beautiful princess?"

“Of course, it’s an honor.” Cornelia said with a smile, then slowly extended her left hand and placed it in Tian’s palm. They walked side by side down the dance floor under the gaze of everyone.

Despite her disproportionate height and physique, Tian performed each dance step exceptionally well, leaving the banquet attendees in awe.

Standing on the dance floor, Marianne smiled at her son and said, "Little Tian is amazing! My son is already a proper little adult."

Emperor Sharuru immediately walked to her side and said with a smile, "As expected of my son, as expected of the one given the name 'Heaven' by CC, at such a young age he has already designed the fourth generation of Knightmare and handed the blueprints over to the Ashford family."

Marian immediately smiled and said, "My dear, why not make him your knight? He seems to have completely inherited my abilities and may become the strongest knight in the empire in the future."

Charlu looked at the sky on the field and couldn't help but smile, saying, "Not bad, I'll have Bismarck train him."

Seeing that the emperor agreed, Marian smiled again and said, "CC would be happy if she knew."

As the song ended, Cornelia smiled at her younger brother, who had just reached her chin, and kissed him on the forehead. Although Tian instinctively tried to back away, Cornelia's movements were so quick that he had no choice but to accept what was a kiss that would be incredibly enchanting to others.

After parting ways with Cornelia, Tian immediately ran to a corner of his living room, picked up a drink, and rubbed his forehead where he had been kissed, saying, "Damn it, Cornelia is so greedy! I should have known better than to invite her to dance. Yeah, why did I invite her to dance? I could have just given her a gift like usual!" As he spoke, Tian, ​​who was only seven years old, showed a regretful expression.

Just then, a voice rang in Tian's ear: "Good evening, Your Highness!"

Tian looked up at the person in front of him and saw that he was wearing a well-fitting tailcoat, with short, curly silver-gray hair, square-framed glasses, and a smiling face. Tian couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression and said, "You are... Count Lloyd Asprinde, a special researcher."

Seeing that Xiao Tian immediately revealed his identity, Lloyd couldn't help but smile and say, "It's a great honor. I never expected that the genius prince who designed the fourth generation Knightmare would know of my existence."

Upon hearing Lloyd's words, the seven-year-old Tian immediately spoke with an astonishing maturity: "No, although I designed the fourth-generation Knightmare, it was merely the result of a complete analysis of the data Ashford gave me. It can only be considered a technological upgrade, and it's difficult to achieve further improvements, such as in terms of power. However, the ideas that Earl Lloyd once published in the newspaper are quite ingenious. If applied to the development of the Knightmare, it would definitely create the strongest Knightmare. If given the opportunity, I would like to work with Earl Lloyd."

Upon hearing this, Lloyd felt a strong connection with Tian and immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Really? That's wonderful! I just happened to be..."

Just then, Schneizel's voice came over: "Heavens, what are you doing here? Euphemia and Nunnally are looking for you. If you don't go back soon, Lelouch will be in big trouble."

Tian looked at Schneizel who was slowly walking towards him and immediately said seriously, "Yes, I understand, Your Majesty!"
