Lux's complaints made Lin Youde, Lei Mengmeng, and Refina all twitch their eyes.

Lin Youde: ‘I’ll go, Lux, why did you say this? Doesn’t this embarrass Cornelia? ’

Lei Mengmeng: ‘Sure enough, Lux is a bit natural, right? ’

Refina: ‘As expected of the captain’s girlfriend, that’s so bold. ’

Cornelia's heart skipped a beat when Lux said this, and she quickly explained.

"No, that's not what we meant."

"It's not easy to find Lelouch again. Of course we also hope to spend more time with Lelouch."

"It's just that Lelouch has his own ideas. You also heard his ideas yesterday."

With a helpless expression, Cornelia sighed.

"To be honest, I want to form my own force to fight against my father or something. In Britannia, this is simply treasonous."

"But Lelouch had his reasons, and we know it. Plus..."

Cornelia didn't say any more, and Lelouch took over the conversation consciously.

"My bastard father has always pursued the principle of supremacy of strength."

"In this case, then if I develop my own strength to defeat him, it will just fit in with his own philosophy."

"Use his own ideas to defeat him, and he should have nothing to say, right?"

Cornelia continued.

"That's it. Lelouch's statement convinced me and Clovis."

"After Clovis agreed, I was thinking about how to help Lelouch build his power."

"It is safest for him to continue to develop in District 11. But once my father knows about this, or is reported by others, Clovis and I will most likely be dethroned."

"If one of them fails, it may affect other brothers and sisters."

"So, we thought about it. Now on the Aqua Blue Planet, the place where Lelouch can develop with peace of mind is probably the only one that is not strong, but unites with the archipelago that Britannia has always been hostile to."

"If Lelouch can develop there, it will undoubtedly be the most beneficial."

This time, Lux understood.

"In other words, send Lelouch to unite in the islands. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, it is a result you are happy to see, right?"

"After all, if he fails, you can take him back as a matter of course, and be a rich man with peace of mind, and live in peace in your old age."

"If he succeeds, he will even take the entire United Islands into his hands. No matter who wins or loses in the battle between him and the Emperor of Britannia, Britannia will still win in the end."

"Because, in the end, the emperor of Britannia will be the one who gets the two countries."

When Lux said this, everyone now understood how loud Cornelia's wishful thinking was.

Cornelia didn't care when Lux revealed her true plan, she just smiled and nodded in response.

"Yes, for this reason. Even if Clovis and I are exposed afterwards, we can still use this excuse to shirk responsibility."

"Because in essence, we are still working hard for the prosperity of Britannia. In principle, we are guaranteed."

"And through this, Clovis and I can also provide some help to Lelouch openly."

Lin Youde nodded slightly: "I see, after this statement is established, you can indeed act without any scruples."

"But until Lelouch reaches the United Islands and establishes a foothold, this statement still does not hold true."

"So, you want me to send him to the United Islands?"

Cornelia responded frankly: "Yes, that's it."

"It's appropriate for us to do these things later. But it's not appropriate to do them now."

"Because if we do it now, it will become clear that this thing was planned by us, and there is a possibility of being slandered as a conspiracy to rebel."

"But doing it after the fact can be said to be taking advantage of the situation. Legally speaking, there is a big difference."

"In addition, I also think that it is safer to ask Dr. Lin Youde for help than sending someone here in Brittany to send Lelouch there."

"After all, there is probably no more powerful small combat force than Dr. Lin Youde's on the entire Aqua Blue Planet."

In this regard, Lin Youde did not comment, but asked rhetorically.

"Then how does Lelouch plan to save the starting capital?"

"Simply sending him over and giving him some people, machines, and money is definitely not enough, right?"

Cornelia nodded and replied, "Yes, so before Lelouch leaves, we will put on a show."

Lin Youde became interested: "Acting? What kind of play?"

Cornelia didn't shy away from it and told her plan openly.

"We plan to gather a team of men for Lelouch and let him rob the prison."

"Among the terrorists captured before, some are still functional and very dissatisfied with Britannia."

"As long as Lelouch rescues those people and makes clear the path against our Britannia, they should become Lelouch's loyal pawns."

"When rescuing these people, I will let Lelouch's people steal a few machines, even my special machine, the new Gundam."

"Snatch those criminals and new machines away, and report them widely. Then Lelouch's team will have the most basic visibility."

"In this way, Lelouch will have the most basic start-up capital."

"Although this may have some impact on the reputation of the Brittanian Army. But for the long-term perspective, this sacrifice is necessary.'

"Then let Lelouch and his team cause trouble in Area 11 for a while. I will go out in person to suppress it. I will use an absolutely powerful number of troops to suppress him and force his team to leave Area 11."

"In this way, Lelouch and his team will have a logical basis for going to the islands to unite, and they will not be easily suspected when they go there."

"After all, the people over there in the United Islands probably wouldn't have thought that we would sacrifice Britannia's reputation to help Lelouch do this and play a cruel trick."

Lelouch hummed softly: "Sister, this is my plan. Don't make it sound like it's your plan and I'm a pawn."

Facing Lelouch who wanted to clear his name, Cornelia gave him an angry and funny look and looked at Lin Youde again.

"That's the overall plan. I wonder, Dr. Lin Youde, what do you think?"

In response, Lin Youde touched his chin and said.

"This plan is very good, so I plan to get involved."

Cornelia was stunned: "Eh?"

Lin Youde smiled and said: "Count me in for planning the prison robbery and body snatching. I also have some things here that I want to give to Lelouch as an investment in his future."

As he said this, Lin Youde murmured in his heart: 'I was worried that I had no place to throw away the blame for robbing the Free Federation's overseas bases, so someone came to my door. It’s so considerate~! ’

The debt has been paid off, and you can fish easily~!
