Place of battle, territory of the Holy British Empire.

- I declare to the world. I, Emperor of the Holy British Empire, Lelouch of Britain. - said a voice from a huge white ship that began to belong to Lelouch's forces.

There was a huge explosion that wiped out some of the troops of the Order of the Black Knights.

- What the hell? Lelouch used Freyja, which means...' one of Knightmere's fighters asked, knowing what was coming next....

- No way! - said the soldiers with shocked expressions on their faces in the medical wards of the Black Knights who were watching the broadcast.

- Is this for real? - Another soldier, who was watching the broadcast that Lelouch had organised around the world, asked in disbelief.

- Schneizel surrendered to my mercy. Damocles and Freya all belong to me! The Order of Black Knights is powerless to oppose me, and if they try to do so, they will only know the power of Freya! My dictatorship is now hindered by no one and nothing, which means that today, this minute, the world has fallen at my feet! - Lelouch of Britain, the current Emperor of the Holy British Empire and the one who became King of this world, said loudly with his savage smile.

The one who inherited the King's Power that allowed him to control people's will - Gias.

After those words were spoken, the entire world was horrified. Those who had felt the power of Freya on the battlefield quickly lost heart, and the rest of the countries that had heard of the new weapon realised that this was the end....

How ironic, since Freya was meant to stop Lelouch and then become an object of intimidation against the entire world, just as Schneizel - Lelouch's older brother and past uncrowned Emperor of the Holy British Empire - wanted.

Now, it's quite the opposite...

- Lelouch of Britain commands! World, submit to me!

***

Holy British Empire, sector 11 - Japan.

On the repaired roads of Tokyo walked a procession consisting of modern equipment and armoured vehicles - Knightmasters, at the head of which on the throne sat the de facto Emperor of the entire world - Lelouch of Britain.

A handsome young man with lilac eyes, dressed in rich Imperial white robes with a sacred headdress emphasising his unanimous power.

- 'His Majesty, the 99th Sole Emperor of the Holy British Empire, Commander-in-Chief of the Order of the Black Knights and Chairman of the Supreme Council of the Superstates, Lelouch of Britain has arrived,' announced the news announcer broadcasting around the world, showing Lelouch in all his glory.

- Look,' the announcer continued as the camera turned towards the former allies of the Black Knights. - These fools who rebelled against Mr Lelouch are being led to the place of execution. In the recent battle, the capital of the Empire, Pendragon, was lost, as well as the lives of many soldiers, including the valiant Zero Knight of the Holy British Empire, Kururugi Suzaku.

- Now that the European Union has adopted the charter of the United Superstates, our lord's great goal of uniting the world has been achieved! May the glory of Mr Lelouch be magnified! Long live Britain! Long live Lelouch!

The people who came out to see the procession could not believe their eyes, because from the very beginning of the usurpation of the throne of the 11th Prince of the British Empire, they were promised that their lives would improve, but never imagined that it would end up taking over the whole world. Many didn't even think about the fact that their lives did become many times more enjoyable than before, but they forgot about it and gossiped about it.

Who's been called the Bloody Emperor.

- It's a dictatorship!

- Quiet, in case they hear you.

- Kill anyone who resists?!

- If anyone hears, they'll kill them right away.

- I didn't think I'd have to present this as a just cause,' said one of the news staff, and the others only silently agreed, except for one girl who is Lelouch's former classmate.

- Lelouch, is this really what you wanted? To rule the world. To rule everyone... - the thoughts of the girl and the one guy who was standing among the crowd of people were the same, because they always thought that Lelouch was not like that....

People move forward, even with all the failures and mistakes. Some would call it stupidity, others progress or evolution. But people's raison d'être should be the same - to live for tomorrow. Neither today nor yesterday, but to think about what they should do next, when all the goals for today are fulfilled.

That was Lelouch's main goal - to make people progress and move forward, after his death.....

which he himself had organised...

The whispering of the crowd could be heard from everywhere, but it immediately stopped when they heard the clinking of heels against the pavement not far from the Emperor's procession.

An unknown man dressed in black robes, and on his face was a closed mask.

But the whole world is already aware of who that mask belongs to.....

Zero, a fighter for justice and freedom, whose identity used to belong to Lelouch.

Everyone was so shocked by this that even Lelouch, who hid his emotions behind a nonchalant face, was 'shocked'.

And only one girl guessed the true intentions of this performance - Cullen Kozuki. A beautiful girl with light red hair, belonging to Japanese nationality, being among the captives. One of the first to discover who lurks under Zero's identity.

- Was Lelouch really all that... - the mental stream was interrupted, for later she would realise what it all meant.

A sacrifice for the world...

Zero dodged the Knightmare's bullets to get as close to Lelouch as quickly as possible.

- Don't shoot! I'll fight him! - gave the order to Jeremiah Gottwald, an arm of His Majesty and one who fights to fulfil his duty to the Royal Family.

But Zero swiftly rushed past him as well, and a slight smile played on Jeremiah's face.

- Go, Zero Knight. - Jeremiah muttered to himself.

Zero swiftly sped past and found himself in front of a 'terrified' Lelouch.

- Madman!' Lelouch exclaimed, grabbing his pistol from under his shoulder blade, but Zero immediately swung it away with his sword.

Gripping the sword more comfortably, Zero points it straight at the heart of Lelouch, who looks at him with a friendly smile.

- The hatred of the world is now focused on me. The plan has been executed and my enemies defeated. You're going to kill me, Suzaku,' Lelouch said, looking straight into his friend's eyes in the great room of his castle in Pendragon.

- Would you really go for it? - Asked the guy with brown hair and green eyes - Suzaku.

- Now I will disappear, breaking the chain of human hatred, and the whole world will sit at the negotiating table,' Lelouch said, not doubting his words for a second.

- The Order of the Black Knights still has a legend named Zero,' Lelouch said, holding out the mask to Suzaku, 'And you will become him and kill me. You will be the one who will unite the world not by military force. People will be able to live for tomorrow.

Thanks to the last phrase, which strengthened his resolve, Suzaku adopted Zero's mask, for this way they would achieve their common goal, for which they had actually gone to war against the whole world.

- And that... - Suzaku began, but he was interrupted by Lelouch.

- Yes...

- Requiem for Zero! - They said it together, and then from their own memories they found themselves facing each other, but on opposite sides of the barricade.

Nannali, Lelouch's chained sister, was sitting in front of the throne in shock, looking at what was happening.

Cullen had already started screaming, almost crying, for Lelouch and Suzaku not to do it, but no one heard her, because the whole world was watching every move of Zero and Lelouch. All of Lelouch's acquaintances unknowingly rushed to help, but it was already too late....

- Suzaku, don't you think that human desires are like Gias',' Suzaku recalled the conversation, 'A person can't do something alone.

- Desire? - Suzaku asked, realising what Lelouch was getting at.

- Yes, for me, the Gias of human desires works, for the world to see tomorrow....

The people who didn't care about Lelouch, as they had thought until that moment, rushed to his aid, even realising that they couldn't change anything.

- Only those who are ready to be shot can shoot. - Were Lelouch's last words before leaving the room, leaving Suzaku alone.

- Is this redemption? 'I guess so,' Lelouch thought as he watched the sword pass through his flesh, 'Suzaku, you will become a hero, the deliverer of the entire world from the common enemy Emperor Lelouch. You are Zero!

There was a sepulchral silence. No one dared to utter a sound except Lelouch, who was grunting in pain from behind his sword.

- 'L-Lelouch...' Suzaku began to cry under his mask.

Childhood best friend, then nemesis, then friend again....

- This is a punishment for you too. You will wear the mask of a defender of justice for the rest of your life and will no longer be able to live under your own name, Kururugi Suzaku,' Lelouch extended his bloody hand to his helmet, 'You will forever sacrifice yourself to the world, as well as your own happiness...

- I...accept...this Gias,' Suzaku said with renewed determination, pulling his sword out of Lelouch.

Lelouch had no more strength, after walking a few metres forward, he fell off his feet, rolling down the skirting stairs, leaving his bloody footprint on it, right at Nannali's feet.

- Brother? - Nunnally said hesitantly, then decided to touch his hand.

Whether because of the bond of kinship or a deep sense of love, she saw everything Lelouch had been through. His conversation with his father, 98 Emperor of Britannia, about Akashi's sword, and so much more. Including how he came to the idea of peace, and then his conversation with Suzaku....

- No...brother. All this time... - grabbing Lelouch's hand with both hands, Nunnali began - I love you, brother! - cried Nannali, holding Lelouch's hand to her head.

Lelouch, hearing this, uttered out of his last strength:

- Yes...I...destroyed...and created...a new world - Whereupon the Blood Emperor of Britannia's eyes closed forever.

- NO! PLEASE, BROTHER! OPEN YOUR EYES, BROTHER! NO! - cried Nunnally more fiercely, for she had not understood her brother until that moment, and now...he was dead.

- The devil Lelouch is dead! Release the prisoners! - ordered the Resistance, Cornelia, the only Princess left of the Royal Family, followed by a cheer from the crowd and then the world....

- Is it really.... - began to say one of the captives, not believing his eyes, thinking it was another of Lelouch's plans.

- No! Zero! It's Zero! - Kozuki said firmly, barely holding back her tears so as not to show them to the other captives.

After that, the captives began to be released, and people began to openly hold a celebration right on the street in honour of the death of the 99th Emperor of the Holy British Empire.

That's...

- This is wrong. Life without you, brother...' Nunnali said choking on her own tears.

She decided not to hold back and cried loudly, but no one heard her amidst the joyous cries....

Only three were crying...

One was holding back with all her might, but still a tear fell treacherously from her right eye.

One hid it under a mask....

But the other didn't hide it.

Crying loudly and intermittently...

- Zero!

- Zero!

- Zero!

- Zero!

- Zero!

The end?

In the name of Chaos and Destruction! I, Black General, Lord of the Other, command. Rise, Lelouch of Britain!!!
