My Anime Girlfriends

Summit nodded slightly, his expression grave, and said, "Yes, but only a very small number of people can use it. Although ordinary people can also forcibly use this drive system through drug stimulation, the price will be the user's life force, until death. That's why I haven't been able to create a physical copy."

Looking at Summit's expression, Lloyd felt a surge of emotions and asked with some confusion, "Then why are you taking it out now?"

Seeing Lloyd's expression, Summit immediately explained to Cecil beside him, "Mr. Lloyd, Miss Cecil, please let me explain."

Hearing Summit's words, Lloyd and Cecil looked at Summit quietly. After taking a deep breath, Summit slowly said, "So far, only the three of us know about the existence of this λ-Drive system. Even the Ashford family doesn't know, so you don't need to worry about its dangers, because I never intended to use it on a large scale. The main reason I'm using the λ-Drive this time is for experimentation. Also, I will be the driver myself, because only I, the inventor, can properly operate this drive system. I will take full responsibility for all the consequences with my life." When he said the last few words, Summit's eyes were more determined than ever before.

After a long silence, Lloyd forced a smile and said, "Hahaha... I also want to see just how powerful this drive system is, but our budget is running low, and we still need to manufacture 'Lancelot,' so you must be frugal."

Seeing Lloyd's expression, Cecil immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Lloyd, this doesn't seem like the time to worry about that!"

"Thank you, Mr. Lloyd and Miss Cecil."

"Let's not talk about that anymore, let's quickly study the data!"

"Yes, yes... Let's see what we can use and add it to the development of my energy wings."

Chapter 303 First Encounter with Anya

The following year, Summit left the special mission. At the young age of fourteen, he was personally appointed as a Knight of the Round Table by the Emperor of the Holy British Empire, ranking eighth. As the war between the EU and the British Empire broke out, Summit, with the intention of collecting data, was sent to the main battlefield of the EU war. There, he made great achievements with the terrifying performance of his Zero unit, named 'Fallen Angel', and the λ-Drive system. Within a year, he was promoted to the fifth knight (Knight of Five). At the same time, because his Zero unit was black, he also had the title of 'Black Demon God'.

Inside Camillo Castle, Summit, urgently recalled by Bismarck, was walking towards his room in the standard uniform of a Knight of the Round Table and a black cloak. He wore a silver mask that covered most of his face, a mask he had worn since the day he became a Knight of the Round Table, rarely removing it except when necessary; meaning very few people had ever seen his true face. Suddenly, a figure rushed towards him from the side. Summit did not react appropriately, allowing the figure to charge.

Seventeen-year-old Gino immediately pounced on Summit, laughing and saying, "Summit, you're back from that battlefield! Do you know how much I missed you while you were gone? Come on, let's have a fight!"

Summit immediately pushed Gino aside and looked at him with a bit of helplessness, saying, "Gino, please mind your image. I came back this time because His Majesty the Emperor was going to appoint me as Knight of Two, and I was forcibly summoned back by Teacher Bismarck. After receiving His Majesty's investiture, I will have to go back."

Upon hearing Summit's words, Gino immediately shouted in a jealous tone, "KnightOfTwo, you've risen too fast! I was knighted a year earlier than you, and although I'm now KnightOfThree, you've become KnightOfTwo so quickly. I'm afraid it won't be long before the position of KnightOfOne is yours too."

Upon hearing Gino's words, Summit immediately put on a stern face and said, "Gino, Professor Bismarck's position is unshakeable. I am already very satisfied with my current achievements."

Seeing Samite's stern face, Gino knew that the other party did not like this topic and quickly changed the subject, saying, "By the way, Samite, another knight has recently been named a Knight of the Round Table. She is from the Alstrom family and is a year younger than you when you were named a knight, but she was directly named the sixth knight. She is a really impressive young lady."

Summit immediately nodded and said, "I've already heard Teacher Bismarck mention Anya Arustrem. Although she's only thirteen, her strength is no less than ours. She excels at long-range attacks and has superb sniping skills."

Seeing that Summit already knew, Gino lost interest in continuing the conversation and immediately put his arm around Summit's shoulder, laughing, "You already know! Then let's not talk about this anymore, let's have a match first!"

Seeing Gino's eagerness, Summit immediately refused, "No way!"

When Gino saw that Samit refused, he immediately pressed, "Why?"

Summit said helplessly, "I need to conserve my energy today to make sure I don't embarrass myself at the investiture ceremony tomorrow. Let's have another fight after the ceremony!"

"Okay, but you have to make sure you go all out when the time comes."

"no problem."

After Samit got rid of Gino, he had just reached the door of his room when a 'beep' sounded. Turning around, he saw a stunningly beautiful girl with pink hair, who looked to be eleven or twelve years old, standing behind him holding something that looked like a digital camera recorder. Moreover, she was wearing the uniform of the Knights of the Round Table.

Upon seeing the other person's attire, Summit guessed their identity and asked, "You are the Sixth Knight, Anya Arstrom?"

Anya pressed the recorder in her hand and nodded, replying in a nasal tone, "Mm!"

Summit politely said, "I am the Fifth Knight, Summit Ashford. Nice to meet you."

Anya nodded slightly and replied in a nasal tone, "Mm." Her hands continued to press buttons on the recorder.

Seeing the other person's strange behavior, Summit, who had a 'sister complex', wasn't angry. Instead, he asked in confusion, "Excuse me... what are you doing?"

When Anya heard Samit ask this, she finally looked away from the recorder and slowly uttered two words: "Memory".

After ending what was essentially a conversation with Anyana, Summit went into his room. He quickly took off his cloak and hung it in the wardrobe, then began to remove his knight's uniform. When he was halfway through removing his clothes, a voice came from behind him: "You look pretty good now!"

Upon hearing the sound, Summit immediately threw the clothes he was holding towards the direction of the sound, then whirled around and delivered a swift and powerful kick to his opponent. After the kick landed, Summit frowned, realizing that his opponent had blocked his attack—an attack capable of killing an ordinary person—with just one hand.

After quickly creating distance between himself and the other person, he looked at him warily and asked coldly, "Who are you? Why are you here?" The newcomer gave him a very strange feeling, and his eyes revealed a deep gaze that seemed to draw one in with just one look.

Seeing Summit's wary expression, the newcomer laughed and tossed the clothes he was holding onto the sofa, saying with a smile, "I'm just here to help you recover your memories as agreed."

Upon hearing this, Summit's pupils constricted sharply, and he quickly asked, "What do you mean, 'restore memories'?"

The visitor immediately smiled and said, "Haven't you noticed the differences between yourself and others?"

Summit immediately frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

The newcomer looked at Summit's expression and immediately smiled, saying, "You're really not cute. Oh well! I won't waste my breath. I'll tell you now." With that, he slowly raised his right hand and walked towards Summit.

Summit tried to fight back, but he found himself unable to control his body, forced to watch helplessly as the other person slowly placed their hand on his forehead. In an instant, countless images flashed through Summit's mind: Lelouch, Nunnally, his mother… everything became vividly clear. Suddenly, he felt as if he had been struck on the head; a sharp pain shot through him, and then he lost consciousness.

Upon seeing Summit faint, the newcomer immediately smiled and said, "As agreed, I have restored your memories, but I didn't say all of them! So I only restored your memories related to this world and a portion of your power. As for your emotional intelligence... well, you'd better pray for yourself!" With that, he vanished from the spot.

Chapter 304 Memories of the Past

Samit slowly woke up from his coma. The first thing he did was to rush into the bathroom, turn on the tap, and let the cold water wash over him. He then slumped in the large bathtub, his eyes filled with grief.

Summit slowly closed his eyes, contemplating his situation. He didn't know who the person from last night was, nor what they had done to him. He only knew that besides regaining his memories as a prince, he also had many strange memories. In these memories, he was a completely different person, both in appearance and demeanor. His daily routine consisted of living with a woman with long, emerald-green hair. Furthermore, he had seen Lelouch's future: the power of Geass, the deaths of Clovis and Euphemia, the birth of Zero, the emergence of the Black Knights… until Lelouch's death and the birth of the New World. But in all of this, whether tragic or comedic, he was never present. Why was that?

Filled with doubt, Summit clenched his fists, feeling a surge of power coursing through his body, as if capable of destroying everything. According to the information in his mind, he could now single-handedly wipe out a fully armed Sunderland squad in direct combat. As the developer of Sunderland, he knew their fighting strength better than anyone; even a seasoned warrior couldn't contend with them unarmed. But even if he could, was this still human power? Was he still human?

As time passed, Summit slowly stood up. He had come to a realization: now that he could regain his memories and see the future, he had to prevent the tragedy from happening. Since he possessed power, he had to protect his younger brother and sister from harm. He, as the older brother, would bear the consequences of his brother's sins, and he would build his sister's happiness. With this thought, Summit raised his fist and punched the tiled wall in front of him to vent his frustration. But the wall, as easily as tofu, pierced through with his single punch.

Realizing his behavior was a bit too outrageous, Summit quickly withdrew his fist and peered through the hole in the wall to the other side. He saw that the room on the other side was also a bathroom, filled with steam, as if telling him that the owner of this bathroom was taking a bath. "It looks like the room of that Sixth Knight named Anya!" Summit couldn't help but think.

Just as Summit was about to slip away, Anya's small face appeared on the other side of the fist cave, and her questioning voice came through the cave: "What are you doing?"

Summit quickly feigned a puzzled expression and forced a smile, saying, "Well... um... haha... this wall seems to be starting to rot. It suddenly cracked open. I think we should leave here first and call someone to fix it tomorrow."

The pink-clad little girl immediately nodded and said in a flat tone, "Oh, then I'll call someone to fix it." With that, she turned her little face away from the fist hole and took a few steps back, as if afraid the wall would collapse. As Anya retreated, her exposed, tender body and her small, red nipples were completely exposed through the fist hole to someone with incredibly sharp eyes; even her bare skin couldn't escape his gaze.

The next day, in the council hall of the British Royal Palace, the nobles, ministers, and generals stood on either side of a red carpet, and the entire hall was silent, as Emperor Charles Schulz sat on the throne, creating a very solemn atmosphere.

Amidst a solemn atmosphere, Summit, dressed in the attire of a Knight of the Round Table with a longsword at his waist, slowly entered the hall. He walked at a measured pace toward the Emperor, his expression serious and calm, though concealed by a silver mask. As he moved, cameras throughout the hall focused their close-ups on him.

Samite glanced around discreetly, taking in everything. Five years had passed, and everything was different from before. Schneizel and Cornelia, dressed in formal attire, along with numerous princes and Knights of the Round Table, stood at the front of the procession. The subsequent ranks were arranged entirely according to family background and power.

As Samit ascended the steps, he immediately knelt on one knee before the emperor. Cornelia, who was watching from below, frowned slightly upon seeing this, for she seemed to have seen this figure somewhere before, but she just couldn't remember who it was.

"Sammet Ashford, are you willing to take the knightly oath here and fight as a knight of Britain?"

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

"Are you willing to abandon your personal desires and become a sword and a shield for the sake of great justice?"

“Yes, Your Majesty.” He then drew the long sword from his waist and handed it to the emperor.

As the Emperor took Summit's longsword and lightly traced it a few times above his head, he declared in a majestic tone, "I, Holy Emperor of Britain, Charles V. Britain, bestow upon you the name Holy Britain Knight of Two." He then handed his sword to Summit, who immediately sheathed it and rose to return the salute. All present erupted in enthusiastic applause.

At this moment, inside Ashford Academy in District 11, Millie Ashford, the heir to the Ashford family, was repeating Summit's name over and over again. She had never known that such a person existed in her family, and since he wore a mask, it was impossible to find out when she had seen him. It seemed that she could only ask her grandfather. Thinking of this, Millie smiled and said, "Never mind, I'll ask Grandpa later!"

Meanwhile, in the British Council Hall, Emperor Sharuru looked at the newly acquired Knight of Two and said, "In the name of the Holy Emperor of Britain, I command you to return to the battlefield against the EU and lead Knight of Three and Knight of Six." As he spoke, Gino and Anya, who were below the stage, also walked up the steps and knelt before him with Summit, saying, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Chapter 305 The Princess and the Knight 1

Two years later, in 2017, in a region of Arabia, Cornelia, dressed in a purple knight's uniform, sat aboard her command ship. Her expression revealed her displeasure; she had been forced to retreat by EU forces, something that had never happened since she began her campaign. Her adjutant, General Dalton, and her knight, Guilford, were examining the terrain on a strategic map and discussing countermeasures with their commanders.

Dalton looked at the intelligence in his hand and said, "Your Highness, I did not expect that the other side would send so many reinforcements in such a short time. The damned EU has even sent out its main Knightmare force, which has put a lot of pressure on us. I am afraid we will not be able to launch an effective counterattack in a short time."

Upon hearing Dalton's report, Cornelia immediately said, "Dalton, are you questioning the combat capabilities of our army?"

Dalton immediately said, "I'm very sorry, Your Highness."

Seeing Cornelia's anger, Guilford immediately volunteered, "Your Highness, why don't I lead your personal guard as the vanguard to break through their defenses and deliver a fatal blow?"

Hearing Guilford's words, Cornelia suppressed her anger slightly and said, "No need to say more, Lord Guilford. Saying this will only increase our casualties. Although their Knightmare combat strength is no match for our Knightmare, and they can be described as a rabble, their forces outnumber ours by five times. It is impossible to annihilate them in one fell swoop. Damn EU!"

Guilford immediately bowed and said, "For Your Highness, I am willing to do my utmost."

Just then, an alarm sounded, signaling an enemy attack. Dalton chuckled and said, "I didn't expect them to launch a preemptive strike. How many enemies are there?"

The scouts immediately reported the number of enemies: "One machine! They've breached the first line of defense."

Upon hearing the report, Dalton and Guilford immediately exclaimed in surprise, "What? Who are they?"

"Don't know? There's no information about this machine in the files."

"A new machine!"

Upon hearing this, Cornelia's expression hardened with fighting spirit as she said, "Interesting." She then loudly commanded, "Open all defenses and let him come! Knightmare forces, attack!" She stood up from her seat and said to Guilford and Dalton, "We'll meet him."

Dalton and Guilford immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Your Highness."

Inside the cockpit of the 'Fallen Angel', Summit, the uninvited guest, noticed that the tanks and Knightmare blocking his way had all moved aside. He couldn't help but smile and said softly, "They actually opened the defenses. As expected of Cornelia, she actually wants to confront me head-on." As he spoke, he pressed the control stick in his hand, increasing the speed of advance.

As the second Knight of the Round Table of Britain, Summit's 'Fallen Angel' was familiar to everyone, but this time no one could recognize it. This was mainly because Summit had someone modify his machine again, adding some new technology and reshaping its appearance, making the originally slender 'Fallen Angel' more muscular. The black armor was also painted bright red by Lloyd's orders.

The first thing to block Samit's way was two enhanced versions of the 'Sunderland' 'Gloucester'. Samit smiled, and the pilot, 'Fallen Angel', charged straight at them, seemingly ignoring the two of them.

Piloting the two Gloucesters were Cornelia's capable lieutenant, Dalton, and the knight, Guilford. When they saw the 'Fallen Angel' charging straight at them, they couldn't help but frown.

"No matter who you are?"

"If you want to fight Her Highness, you must defeat us."

Two enlarged knight's lances instantly crossed and thrust towards the 'Fallen Angel', but the 'Fallen Angel' crossed his arms and grabbed the two knight's lances with his bare hands, and resisted the two Gloucesters.

After controlling the 'Fallen Angel' to seize the opponent's knight's lance, Summit in the cockpit couldn't help but laugh and say, "It's Dalton and Guilford! As expected of Cornelia's most capable subordinates." With that, he pulled the control stick forward, and the 'Fallen Angel' increased its power again, forcing the two Glosters to retreat repeatedly.

"what?"

"To be able to block both my and Lord Dalton's attacks, is this really someone from the EU?"

"But... don't mistake us for those grunts in front."

After realizing the opponent's strength, the two Glosters fired their slashing scythes at the head of the 'Fallen Angel' one after the other. At such a short distance, the 'Fallen Angel' had no chance to dodge. However, the four slashing scythes were bounced off an invisible piece of armor the moment they hit the armor.

"It bounced off!"

"How is that possible, at this distance!"

"Haha... Not bad reaction, now we can get serious."

After deflecting the scythe, the red 'Fallen Angel' went all out, instantly forcing Guilford and Dalton back and drawing two longswords from its waist, the blades turning red the moment they were drawn.

Upon seeing the weapon in the other party's hand, the well-informed Dalton immediately exclaimed in surprise, "MVS? Impossible! How could the EU possibly have such technology!"

Guilford frowned slightly and questioned through the external sensors, "Who are you?"

Upon hearing this question, Summit in the cockpit couldn't help but show a bored expression and said, "Asking for my name so soon? Oh well, after all, they are Cornelia's subordinates." With that, he opened the cockpit door and stood outside.

Upon seeing Summit emerge from the cockpit, Guilford exclaimed in surprise, "That suit is..."

"KnightOfTwo, Summit Ashford."
