Chapter 8:

"Have you come yet? Please come in?"

Found out?

Rome knew very well that it did not reveal any trace of its discovery. Stepping on the flat concrete road without any obstacles made no sound, because he was afraid of disturbing the people in the church, Rome even relieved his breathing a lot, and he never appeared in a position where he could be seen by the people inside.

But since it has been discovered, there is no need to continue to hide.

Rome walked into the church and found that the person inside turned out to be a nun, and this nun had a relationship with Rome.

Until now, Rome has not seen this touch of tender green from other people, in the church as bright as day, like a fresh shoot in the sun. The amber eyes are very calm, not fluctuating because of the appearance of Rome, reminiscent of the calm Dead Lake. Rome felt that nun clothes were not suitable for this girl, because nuns were shepherds who had to maintain purity to serve God and take care of the Lord's Lamb, but Rome could not find a trace of selfless and broad love that a practitioner should have in a girl, nor could she find it. any trace of warmth.

"It's you?"

"Good evening, please come in, lost lamb."

"Good evening, nun."

The nun did not continue to say anything, but turned to face the cross and muttered.

Rome suddenly remembered that today is Sunday, which is worship, and believers will worship on this day, which can explain why Miss Sister appeared. But this time is only for worship, isn't the time right?

However, Rome was not a clergyman, so he didn't understand the requirements of worship, so naturally he didn't say anything. Instead, it was the whispers of the nun that made him more concerned. I don't know why, since seeing this nun, Rome has always felt that her mind is out of control. Not only did he feel that his heart was empty, but the green-haired girl had completely taken away his attention, and he couldn't look away at all.

This feeling was also there in the first meeting. At that time, Rome had an urge to rush forward desperately, but was restrained by himself later.

Is this what is called love?

Roman clasped his hands together tightly, resisting the urge to pounce.

After a few minutes of torture, the nun's chanting stopped, and she turned to look at Rome, who was sitting on the pews.

"Hello, sir, do you need to pray?"

"No need, I can just sit down."

The nun, who seemed dissatisfied with Roma's answer, walked up to Roma, then squatted down, her eyes level with Roma's.

For some reason, she suddenly laughed. Not the smile that the clergy should have, there was nothing reassuring in it, but instead made Rome feel endless sadness and... mockery.

"I'm a nun, and it's my job to help people in need solve their confusion. Maybe I can't do anything, but I can be a tight-lipped listener. Desires, desires, just say what you want and what you want to do. That's enough. So tell me about the things that are bothering you, and the difficulties you encounter."

Yeah? Is this the responsibility of nuns? Rome is not very clear, after all, it was the first time he encountered the clergy. Although I felt something was wrong, I finally chose to believe in this nun.

The troubled things and the difficulties encountered are now only my own memory.

However, in fact, he didn't care about his lost memories at all, and he felt that the forgotten past was nothing. The reason why I care is that I don't want to let down the efforts of the student council.

Section 17 Chapter 16 GEASS

Under the encouraging eyes of the green-haired nun, Rome finally spoke out about her problem.

"Actually, I am a person with amnesia. I just woke up a few days ago. I hope to restore my previous memory, but I have not been able to find a way to restore it."

"Is this the problem that bothers you? Amnesia is indeed an incurable disease. No matter how excellent medical equipment is, there is no guarantee that it can be cured. Since you can't rely on science, you might as well try to pray to the gods."

Pray to the gods...? It's really a clerical formula, not unexpected, but also somewhat disappointing. Faith is not a bad thing, but people should not rely on faith to solve problems, only those who have nowhere to go go back to pray to the gods.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, because praying won't make you lose anything. So even if you think you won't succeed, just treat yourself as being deceived once. This kind of deception will not cost you anything."

It seems so. Those who pray to the gods will not lose, because there is no need to pay, only sincere prayer is enough. Perhaps this is why there are more and more Christians today.

However, after taking a look at the victims on the cross, Rome was inexplicably disgusted, probably thinking that **** Christ did not have the appearance of a god. Unlike other pantheons, the biblical pantheon is the only God—God, the omnipotent and omniscient God. If you really want to save the world, why do you need fake hands for mortals? Obviously only one thought, one action is enough.

Resisting the boredom in his heart, Rome closed his eyes and began to pray.

"Close your eyes, pray earnestly, and think of your most desired wish."

The nun's voice came from her ears, and Rome did as the nun said, and then felt a slender hand on Rome's head.

The next moment, the world was turned upside down.

As if the body was weightless, the whole person fell into the water, then floated up from the water, floated in the sky, and went straight to the most distant universe.

"Is this your memory? Want to find past memories."

This voice is... that nun?

"I will give you strength, give you power, and you will fulfill my demands. This is your contract with me, choose, Rome."

choose? Rome doesn't think it has a choice. Let's not discuss whether the nun's words are true or false. If you refuse, you will lose nothing, but you can't gain anything. On the contrary, if he agrees to the contract, he will get the ability to restore his memory. As for fulfilling her request - Rome already has nothing, so what is there to be afraid of losing?

"I agreed."

The world is restored. Rome found herself back to reality, with the green-haired nun standing in front of her, one hand on Rome's forehead, and her amber eyes stared at Rome unblinkingly.

In a trance, Rome seems to have seen a strange image, like traveling through time and space and returning to an ancient era.

There are no cars, no electric lights, soldiers with spears in their hands, muddy roads in the countryside, dilapidated buildings on the side of the road... Finally, the picture freezes in a church. In the church, there was a little girl lying on the ground. The plain linen clothes could no longer hide the scarred body. The face was stained with dirty mud. Only those amber eyes were familiar.

"Miss nun?"

"My name is C.C, please remember this name in the future."

Miss Sister's indifferent voice sounded, dispelling the image in Rome's eyes, and her vision returned to the real church.

The green-haired nun bent forward and straightened up, standing in front of Rome, the disappointment on her face flashed.

"It doesn't seem to restore memory, so what ability did you get?"

"My ability?"

Is there really any ability?

I couldn't help thinking of the image I saw just now. If I guessed correctly, the little girl in the image should be the nun in front of me.

"That's right, what kind of wish you have, you will get the ability to realize it. Rome, what kind of ability do you get?"

Will you get the ability to fulfill your wishes?

Rome looked at the nun in front of her again, and the image appeared again.

The difference is that the nun in the image is no longer a little girl, but a girl as big as she is now. She was lying on the floor of the church, her beautiful long dress was cut, the long and narrow knife wound was cut at the position of her chest, and blood stained the pure white dress and the floor below her. Beside the lady nun, another nun lay with a relieved and contented smile on her face.

"What are you looking at?"

"No, nothing, just wondering what my abilities are?"

In fact, Rome has already got the answer. If it is true as the nun said, the ability that Rome got was to fulfill his wish, then Rome's ability should be to "see the past".

Really bad ability.

This ability is indeed to retrieve the memory of Rome, but at the same time, it can also see the past of others. Rome has no intention of inquiring into other people's privacy, but does not know how to use this ability correctly, it seems that it only needs a thought to activate it.

"It seems that you don't know your GEASS very well. Forget it, let me know when you understand."

The green-haired nun—no, it should be C.C. She already has an expression of lack of interest on her face, and she is about to leave here.

"GEASS? Wait, how am I going to find you?"

"Don't worry, I'll be there when I need it."

C.C's actions seemed very dashing, without any intention to stay, and also told Rome that she was indeed not a nun.

Is a very suspicious woman, from name to behavior is suspicious. Not only did she swim in the pool in the dead of night, avoiding everyone else, but she showed up at church on Sundays when everyone was away. But what is most intriguing is that she has the power to grant others their wishes.

Either way, it shows that this woman is not an ordinary person.

"The ability to 'see the past'..."

Roma looked around and found that he could not see anything. The images belonging to the "past" never appeared again. It seemed that GEASS could only be used by people.

Roma returned to the dormitory, turned on the light, and couldn't wait to go to the mirror and use GEASS in front of himself in the mirror.

But there was nothing, and Rome saw nothing. The Rome in the mirror is still this Rome, and the images that belong to too much have never appeared. No matter how many times Rome is used, it cannot be seen for a long time.

Can't use it on myself? Or do you have to look directly at each other? Either way, it's not good news for Rome.

Chapter 18 Chapter 17 Romani Archiman

Since some readers have mentioned it, I will explain it here in advance.

Roman got GEASS from C.C, but the ability to use is not pure GEASS, so it can be used on C.C.

——————————————————

Today is Monday, Ashford College is lively again, and Rome has seen people who are unfamiliar after a long time.

But at this time, Rome also has an important thing to do, which is to test the power obtained from the green-haired girl C.C - GEASS, which is a corresponding ability obtained in order to realize a wish. Because Rome at that time made a wish to "restore memory", the ability effect obtained was "see memory (tentative name. So, does it mean that there are other people who have the power of GEASS? And these powers may be strange because of their own wishes.

These questions have not been answered, and probably only C.C can give him the answer.

In order to test the ability of GEASS, Roma got up very early, and then passed by on a road with few people, using GEASS on several people passing by, to further understand the limit of his ability.

First of all, GEASS in Rome can only be activated when looking at other people's eyes. If you can't see your eyes, you can't see anything, but you don't need to look at each other, as long as you can see the other's eyeballs unilaterally.

The second is the problem of distance. The activation of GEASS depends on Rome's vision. As long as the eyeball can be seen, it meets the activation conditions, but the clarity of the image seen is affected by the distance. more blurry.

Third, the fragments of the past that Rome saw are indeterminate. Which time period you see and what you see all appear randomly and are not under the control of Rome.

Last but not least, the mirror did not affect the use of GEASS.

So Rome came to the final conclusion: this GEASS cannot be used against itself. Because Rome not only failed to see the memory of its own past, but also the recent memory.

"Is that Mr. Roman? Good morning."

When he pushed open the door of the student council, Roma heard Nanali's greeting. Even before she said a word, she was already judged by Nanali through the sound of footsteps. Nanali is also a very powerful person.

"Good morning, Nanali, are you alone?"

Looking around at the student council, I didn't find anyone else, not even Saki Shiko.

"Well, because everyone is in class at this time, Saki Shiko went back to get things, so I'm the only one."

Hearing Nanali's gentle voice, Roma's mood suddenly brightened. Nanali really has the ability to heal.

"Has Lord Rome encountered a difficult matter?"

"Huh? How did Nanali know?"

"Because Roman-kun's voice sounded very depressed just now, and the footsteps were heavier than usual, I think Roman-kun encountered some problems. But Nanali just guessed according to everyone's usual appearance, did Nanali say What's wrong?"

A worried expression appeared on Nanali's face, is she afraid that she guessed wrong?

"No, Nanali is right. I've been troubled by something since last night. I figured it out just now, but the result is still unpleasant."

This kind of negative thing shouldn't have been told to Nanali, but she said it unknowingly, feeling that she shouldn't hide it from her.

"Is it about memory?"

Nanali's brows furrowed slightly, and she became even more pitiful when she was weak, which made people feel particularly distressed.

"Nanali doesn't need to worry, the memory thing is not something that can be solved in an instant. If you care too much, you can't get it back."

After a good comfort, Nanali stopped worrying about this matter, and then the two began to chat about the feeling of playing yesterday. About ten minutes later, Saki Shiko returned to the student council.

"Good morning, Master Roma."

"Good morning, Sakiko."

Sakiyoko walked in from the door, holding a card he had never seen before. She walked to Nanali's side, lowered her head and whispered in Nanali's ear, and then handed the card to Nanali. As a result, Nanali's cheeks began to turn red.

"Luo, Roman-kun, this is your student card."

Nanali raised the student card in her hand, but she lowered her head, not daring to let Roma look at her face.

So cute, Nanali.

Roma took the student card from Nanali, which not only had Roma's head, but also Roma's name. However, this student card is not an official student card, but the identity of an exchange student.

But what made Rome more concerned was the name on the student card, which said "Romani·Akiman" instead of "Roma".

Roma suddenly remembered that when talking to Nanali a few days ago, Nanali had regretted her rash decision on Roma's name. At that time, Roma did not blame Nanali, but said something like "If Nanali feels really guilty, why don't you help me think of a name that sounds similar to 'Roma'". Unexpectedly, the momentary words that were not taken into consideration at that time were actually remembered by Nanali.

"Romani Archiman—"

"Roma, do you like this name?"

Nanali's cautious expression, for fear that Rome would hate it. This name was chosen by Nanali from several sounds similar to "Roma" that Lelouch had found. In fact, she had planned to give those names to Rome to choose, but after Sakiko understood her plan, she told " If you decide for yourself, Master Roman will be even happier." replied. Perhaps the ending written by Saki Seiko was too tempting, so Nanali finally chose this name on her own initiative.

But now, Nanali is afraid of being hated by Rome.
