My Anime Girlfriends

After Sakiyoko left, Sammit immediately smiled and said to Cornelia and Euphemia, "Royal sister, Euphemia, Nunnally, let's go find Lelouch!" Then he told her to push Nunnally's wheelchair towards the door.

Inside the student council room, Milly and Cecil were chatting away as if they'd hit it off immediately, completely ignoring Lelouch, who was sitting nearby directing the work. The noise nearly drove Lelouch to a frenzy. Since it was already afternoon, the giant pizza, 12 meters in diameter, was officially being made. Just as Lelouch finished explaining all the steps, Nunnally's voice reached his ears: "Brother..."

“Nunnally, the pizza is ready…” Lelouch answered habitually, but he was only halfway through his sentence when he turned around and was startled to see the impressive lineup of Summit, Cornelia, and Euphemia. He hurriedly said to Millie, who was chatting with Cecil, “Sorry, something came up. Contact me if anything comes up.” Then he dragged Summit and the others out.

Because she was so engrossed in chatting with Cecil that she had her back to the door, Mirei turned around and, not seeing Cornelia and Euphemia, asked in confusion, "What happened?"

“Princess Cornelia…” Cecil, who was facing the door, recognized Cornelia and murmured as he watched her leave.

"what?"

"No...it's nothing."

Chapter 365 School Festival Declaration (End)

Because the giant pizza had already started being made, almost everyone rushed to watch, leaving the once bustling square deserted. "Brother, what's going on?" Lelouch asked, looking at Sammit, who was smiling, and Euphemia and Cornelia, who were pushing Nunnally's wheelchair, after pulling Sammit out of the crowd's sight.

"Don't worry about these things, Lelouch. Don't you want to see them?" Summit smiled slightly, walked to Lelouch's side, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile.

“Uh…” Even though Samite said that, Lelouch still found it hard to accept and looked at the two women in front of him in surprise.

"It's been a long time, Lelouch. It's so good to see you again." Cornelia spoke first, her voice filled with genuine joy, as she looked at Lelouch's surprised expression.

"Yes, it's so great to see you, Nunnally, Lelouch," Euphemia nodded and said, making an excuse.

Looking at the two women, whose tone and expressions were sincere, Lelouch could tell that there was no pretense between them. He immediately recalled what Summit had said before, and for the first time, he began to question his own actions. Then, he thought of the face of the British Emperor Sharuru, and a flash of hatred crossed his eyes as he thought to himself, "Right, the target of my revenge is the British Emperor, not them. But if they stand in my way, I can only apologize to my brother."

"Lelouch, why aren't you saying anything?" Summit asked, nudging Lelouch's arm as he looked into deep thought.

"Ah...yes, it's been a long time, Cornelia, Euphemia," Lelouch said hastily, snapping out of his daze.

"Brother Lelouch, how rude of you!" Nunnally, sitting in her wheelchair, immediately reprimanded him.

"Ah... I'm sorry," Lelouch said immediately, sounding a little awkward.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. We haven’t gotten together in a long time. Shouldn’t we celebrate?” Summit patted Lelouch on the shoulder, signaling him to relax, and then suggested to the three girls with a smile.

“Yes, so how should we celebrate?” Yuffie nodded in agreement with Summit, clearly agreeing with the suggestion.

“Let’s have pizza!” Nanali, sitting in her wheelchair, immediately suggested.

"Pizza?" Euphemia and Cornelia exclaimed in confusion, clearly not understanding why Nunnally would suggest pizza at this time.

“Yes, pizza, the world’s best pizza.” Nanali immediately pointed towards the crowd when pizza was mentioned.

Following the direction Nunnally pointed, Cornelia and Euphemia noticed the huge grill in the crowd, and Suzaku piloting the third-generation KnightMare—Gannimede.

“Gannimeth!” Cornelia exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the familiar old relic.

“What’s that?” Euphemia asked immediately, pointing to Ganymede and the large oven.

"Ah, that's a pizza oven and a Ganymede for kneading dough. The pilot is Suzaku," Lelouch explained with a smile upon seeing the two girls' expressions. He harbored no ill will towards Cornelia and Euphemia in their current state.

"Using the Ganymede to knead dough? That's too reckless. (Wow, Suzaku, that's amazing!)" Cornelia and Euphemia exclaimed simultaneously upon hearing Lelouch's explanation. Cornelia was more concerned that they were using the machine piloted by the Flashy Marian to do such a thing, while Euphemia was more concerned about Suzaku piloting the Ganymede.

"Yes." Lelouch nodded with a smile.

"Lelouch, I have to leave for a bit." While Cornelia and Euphemia turned their attention to the pizza-making area, Summit walked up to Lelouch and whispered in his ear. As she spoke, she glanced at a rooftop of a school building.

Lelouch followed Summit's gaze and immediately saw a female student with long, emerald-green hair standing there. Although he couldn't see her face clearly because of the distance, Lelouch guessed that it was C.C. and nodded slightly, saying, "Go ahead, brother." After saying that, he chatted casually with Cornelia and Euphemia.

After parting ways with Cornelia and the others, Summit quickly walked to a place where they couldn't see him, and disappeared in a flash. When he reappeared, he was already standing on the rooftop where CC was.

"CC, what are you doing here?" Summit walked up to CC with a smile and asked with a light laugh.

Holding a plate and cutlery, CC glanced longingly at the oven after hearing Summit's voice, then turned to Summit with a slight smile and a hint of jealousy, saying, "Why aren't you with your little princess? What are you doing here?"

"What's wrong, my witch queen? Are you jealous?" Summit smiled slightly, wrapped his arms around CC's slender waist from behind, and kissed her lips. Having already consummated their marriage, Summit felt he owed CC a great deal, knowing he would eventually leave her side. Therefore, he secretly resolved to treat CC well.

"What do you think?" CC asked with a smile.

“If so, I would be honored!” Summit said with a smile, and then opened his mouth to kiss CC’s red lips.

While Summit and C.C. were getting intimate, something just like in the original story happened on Lelouch's side: Euphemia's identity was exposed, causing a commotion. Everyone, including the media who had come to interview her, swarmed around her. Although Cornelia stepped forward to try and stop the commotion, the crowd wasn't interested in the disguised Cornelia. In fact, after her identity was revealed, some of Cornelia's fans went wild, desperately rushing towards them. Distracted by worrying about Euphemia and Cornelia, Suzaku caused the dough in 'Gaynomede's' hand to fly out of bounds and land on the overgrown grass, apparently unusable for making pizza.

"Ah... my pizza!" CC, who had just finished kissing Summit, exclaimed in surprise when she saw the dough flying out.

Just as Cornelia and Euphemia were at their wits' end, two large mechanical hands pushed through the crowd and lifted Cornelia and Euphemia into their arms. "Are you alright, Your Highness, Governor? Your Highness Euphemia?"

After seeing Cornelia and Euphemia rescued by Suzaku using Ganymede, a reporter immediately raised his hand to the highest point and said, "Lady Cornelia, Lady Euphemia, please say something!"

Cornelia frowned, but according to Lelouch, this interview was being broadcast live throughout Area 11. She had already lost face for the royal family and really didn't want to say anything more. In her heart, she severely reprimanded Summit, blaming it all on his terrible idea.

"Princess Cornelia! What could this be? If the enemy sees her, Her Highness will be in danger! Send troops immediately to bring Her Highness back!" Guilford and Dalton, who were integrating their troops, shouted to the soldiers behind them after seeing Cornelia's appearance through their onboard computers.

While Guilford and Dalton were busy with Cornelia's blatant exposure to the enemy, Euphemia solemnly announced from beside her: "I am Euphemia, the Vice-Governor of AREA-11 of the Holy British Empire. Today I have something to announce to everyone. I, Euphemia Li. Britannia, hereby declare that the area around Mount Fuji has become a special administrative region—Japan."

Chapter 366 Shermay

Euphemia's speech directly destabilized the entire situation in Area 11. The terrorists began to waver. Their previous resistance against Britain was nothing more than an attempt to prove themselves. Now that Britain had publicly recognized them and given them a place to live, they had no reason to resist Britain anymore.

Inside the Governor's Mansion, Cornelia sat angrily in her office, with Guilford standing dutifully beside her, while Summit sat leisurely on the sofa, sipping tea that Schneizel had sent from the Chinese Federation. She didn't want to say anything more now. Although she disagreed with Euphemia's proposal, it was already public knowledge, so she could only let it become policy and get on track. At the same time, she was also annoyed that Summit hadn't reported it.

“Summit…”

“Sister, this tea is quite good. Would you like some?” Just as Cornelia was about to say something, Summit stood up abruptly, interrupting her and raising the teacup in his hand. He then poured a cup for Cornelia from the tea set he had prepared, and then poured another cup for Guildford, who was standing to the side.

“Thank you, Your Highness Summit.” Guildford saw the teacup handed to him and, seeing that Cornelia did not speak, knew that she had given her consent. He immediately reached out and took the teacup, expressing his gratitude.

Looking at the emerald green tea in the white porcelain teacup, which was emitting a fragrant aroma, Cornelia sighed softly, swallowed the words that were about to come out, and then picked up the teacup and took a sip. She found that the tea tasted very good. Although it tasted a little bitter at first, it turned into a pleasant fragrance after going down her throat. The tea was so fragrant that she immediately felt much more relaxed.

“Sister, now that you’ve sent Dalton to assist Euphemia, whatever your purpose, the outcome is already decided. So don’t say anything about going back on your word.” Samit smiled as he picked up his teacup and took a sip, watching Cornelia intently sipping her tea.

"Alright, say whatever you want." Cornelia immediately gave Summit a dirty look and put down her teacup.

"Don't worry about that. There are still three days until the ceremony. The grand occasion will be broadcast worldwide. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be a good start," Summit said with a smile and a wave, then picked up his teacup and slowly sipped. At the same time, he secretly made a decision in his mind. Although everything was developing as he knew it, he didn't want the tragedy from the original story to happen. He would definitely have to be there in person.

Ashford College

"Lelouch, what are you planning to do?" C.C. asked, looking at Lelouch who was sitting silently in the living room with his head down.

"CC, if your brother sent you, don't ask me these questions." Lelouch slowly raised his head upon hearing CC's voice, and said coldly to CC who was holding a yellow plush toy.

"Hmm... that's really cold! Don't worry, Summit didn't hint at anything to me. I just came to talk to you about some things." CC smiled and said slowly.

"What?" Lelouch had spent so much time with C.C. and rarely spoke in this tone, so he was puzzled and immediately asked.

"Lelouch, haven't you noticed? Summit has changed a lot since the last incident." C.C. looked at the puzzled Lelouch, her expression gradually becoming serious, and slowly said.

"Hmm, what exactly happened?" Seeing C.C.'s serious expression, Lelouch knew she wasn't joking, so he asked.

“Lately, I’ve had this feeling that Summit will leave me, leave this world, and never come back.” CC hugged the plush toy tightly in her arms, her face showing great fear, and murmured.

"You mean my brother... will die?" Lelouch asked, his expression filled with surprise and doubt, upon seeing C.C.'s appearance.

“No, he won’t die, he’ll just leave us.” CC shook her head gently and said with a self-deprecating smile.

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

In the afternoon, feeling bored, Summit went to the construction site (the ceremony for the establishment of the special administrative region) and found Lloyd, the supervisor. He handed Lloyd a document about modifying the 'fallen angels' and discussed the modification plan with him. Just as the two were chatting enthusiastically, Summit suddenly felt uneasy. He had never encountered this situation before and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Meanwhile, outside Avalon, the previously clear sky rapidly gathered large amounts of thunderclouds, instantly enveloping the entire Mount Fuji, with deafening thunder echoing through the heavens. Just as Lloyd was complaining about the inaccuracy of the weather forecast, a bolt of lightning, about a foot thick, pierced through the clouds and struck a tall, erect steel structure. With a deafening explosion, the once-solid steel melted under the force of nature, dripping red-hot steel onto the ground. Although there were no casualties, the workers who had just stopped working stared in horror, their mouths agape. They then looked up at the sky, fearing another lightning strike like that.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the clouds in the sky gradually transformed into a swirling vortex, within which flashes of blue-purple lightning threatening to erupt at any moment. "What on earth is happening?" Just as everyone felt uneasy and prepared to flee, a dozen bolts of lightning, each a meter thick, simultaneously pierced through the clouds, twisting their dazzling bodies like sea dragons emerging from the ocean, hurtling towards the plaza where they stood. The immense pressure descended instantly; except for Summit, everyone felt as if only two colors remained in the world—a world interwoven with black and white. Their bodies were no longer under their control; they could only helplessly watch the white lightning strike them.

Just when everyone thought they were about to die from this bizarre lightning that rarely occurs even once every few millennia, more than a dozen bolts of lightning collided in mid-air, then canceled each other out with a deafening boom before disappearing into a blinding white light. Under this white light, those who looked up at the sky immediately felt a stinging pain in their eyes, and then found that their eyes could only see a blank space, and they could not see anything at all.

"Ah!" One worker, unable to bear the blow, cried out in agony, followed by hundreds of workers who joined in. While everyone was clutching their bodies and screaming, Summit, who had remained unaffected and continued to gaze at the sky, seemed to see something terrifying. His eyes widened instantly, his purple pupils suddenly contracted, and a tiny black dot appeared in his pupils.

"Hmm, what exactly happened?" As time slowly passed and his vision gradually returned, Lloyd rubbed his eyes and asked in confusion.

"Mr. Lloyd, Summit, are you alright?" Cecil asked as he slowly opened his eyes.

"Yeah, I'm fine. How about you?" Lloyd slowly opened his eyes and replied.

Once their vision returned, the two noticed that Summit had been staring at the sky. They then realized that the sky had returned to its previous state, with not a single cloud in sight. They immediately asked in confusion, "Summit, what's wrong? What happened?" As they followed Summit's gaze, Lloyd and Cecil were taken aback, for they saw a humanoid black dot floating in mid-air.

"Cecil, zoom in on the image."

“Yes.” Cecil responded and ran to the control room, zooming in on the figure he had seen. When the clear image appeared on the screen, Lloyd and Cecil exclaimed simultaneously, “A human, a human without any equipment, how is that possible?”

Just as Lloyd and Cecil were marveling at what they were seeing, Summit, who had been gazing at the sky, suddenly uttered three words: "Shermie..."

Chapter 367 The Arrival of Sherme

"Shermie..."

"What? What did you say?" Lloyd asked, looking at Summit who had spoken.

Upon hearing Lloyd's question, Summit, who was standing in front of the glass, slowly turned around, smiled slightly at Lloyd who was staring at the screen, and said calmly, "It's nothing, Mr. Lloyd, I just saw a friend from a long time ago." With that, he walked out of Avalon.

The black dot floating in the sky was Shermie from the King of Fighters world. Her red dress, fiery figure, and black bangs obscuring her eyes—that familiar look was one Summit would never forget. He was now desperate to know why she was here. When Summit reached the plaza, Shermie, who had been floating motionless, began to move. Bluish-white lightning flashed incessantly across her body, and she slowly began to descend. After a long ten minutes, she finally landed on the ground.

"Tap!" The sound of shoes hitting concrete was faint, yet it clearly echoed throughout the entire venue. Shermie, who had been keeping her eyes closed, slowly opened them, glancing around before fixing her gaze on the nearly unrecognizable Mount Fuji. She spoke with a bewildered expression, "Where am I? Oh right, I came to find Brother Tian. The God said he was in this world, and he can't be wrong." Her expression hardened, revealing a look of sudden realization. She then strode towards the somewhat flustered crowd, a powerful aura emanating from her body, causing everyone present to gasp and involuntarily retreat.

As Shermie approached, the crowd instinctively retreated. Shermie looked at them, who couldn't even withstand the slightest aura she exuded, a hint of disdain and disappointment flashing in her eyes. She muttered, "Not here either?"

Just as Shermie was disappointed and wanted to leave quickly, a helpless voice came and said, "Shermie, take back your aura. There are no fighters in this world. They are all ordinary people."

Hearing someone call her name accurately, Shermie stopped in her tracks, her imposing aura vanishing abruptly, replaced by a look of surprise and delight as she looked towards the direction of the voice. Following her gaze, Summit, clad in military uniform, emerged from behind the crowd. Seeing Summit's handsome face, Shermie's expression immediately turned to disappointment, her eyes filled with confusion. Seeing Shermie's reaction, Summit used his earpiece to instruct Lloyd to disperse all the workers.

"Who are you?" Shermie asked suspiciously as she watched all the workers around her disperse, her imposing aura emanating once again.

Summit ignored Shermie's imposing manner and instead gently touched his face, smiling as he said, "Don't be surprised, Shermie. I've just changed my face. I don't always have the same appearance when I'm reincarnated."

"Are you really Brother Tian?" Shermie asked with surprise and delight after hearing Samite's words.

"Hmm, has a year already passed?" Summit asked with a smile and a nod.

Hearing Summit ask this, Shermie became even more certain that Summit was the person she had been searching for. In a flash, she covered several meters and arrived in front of Summit. She hugged him tightly, her eyes brimming with tears, and cried out to Summit, "Brother Tian, ​​I've finally found you! It's so good, so very good!"

In Avalonne, Lloyd and Cecil stared in astonishment at what they were seeing, unable to understand why Summit knew this strange woman.

"Mr. Lloyd, am I seeing things?"

"Hmm, I think so..."

Seeing Shermie clinging to him and crying uncontrollably, Summit hesitated for a moment before asking, "Shermie, has a year already passed?"

Hearing Summit ask this, Shermie reluctantly left Summit's embrace, nodded and slowly said, "A year has already passed, but Brother Tian still hasn't woken up. Sister Xiaowu and I are very worried about you."

"Sister Mai?" Summit asked, puzzled, after hearing Shermie refer to Mai Shiranui as "Sister Mai."
