[TRANSLATED] CODE GEASS: Lelouch of the Re;surrection (Chapter 8, Pt 1)
Original Scans: courtesy of Comic NewType
Milly Ashford here—
—reporting live from the famous land of warriors, the Kingdom of Zilkhstan.
And I'm speaking with Captain of the Elite Guard, Shesthaal1.
MILLY
The other day, an incident occurred at that Hashvess refugee camp, they're calling it the Hashvess Puzzle...
Can you tell us anything about the disappearances of those from the WHA, including Honorary Consultant Nunnally?
SHESTHAAL FORGNAR
Nothing new, I'm afraid.
The area where she was taken is bordered by four other nations
as well as our own Zilkhstan...
...so the search is no simple matter.
SHESTHAAL
Lady Nunnally has contributed tremendously to this era of international postwar peace, and to lose her now...
...could be considered a blow to every single human being who hoped for a brighter tomorrow.
SHESTHAAL
Our Holy Priestess is especially heartbroken.
All right, it's ready.
C.C.
Spread out the sofreh for me,
Lelouch
Well, you could have done it before, couldn't you.
Now, you must be hungry.
Just have whatever you like, okay?

C.C.
Hold on!
Calm down!
LELOUCH
<still screaming>
C.C.
Everything's okay, so—
—Ah—
There's nothing to be afraid of...
...nothing here that can hurt you.
C.C.
I know.
I'll get you some warm milk.
With plenty of honey in it, okay?
Igaguri-kun, do you read me?
This is Mortar2.
Looks like you're eating right, Igaguri-kun.

SWAIL QUJAPPAT
LLOYD
Swail Qujappat — twenty-nine years old.
Captain of the Royal Capital's Peace Preservation unit.
LLOYD
He does appear to have had an incident with the Europian mafia, but~...
Well, I'll spare you the details,
but let's just say he's had a colorful career, not the sort of thing appropriate for someone entrusted with preserving the peace.
VOICE (KALLEN)
More than he seems, then.
Right?
Oh!
And these others, too, are reasonably dangerous.
KALLEN
Just like we thought...
SAYOKO
This is Hornet.
There are indications that they were taken to the temple and the prison.
KALLEN
So this is 'Black', huh.
(If what we did back then really caused a bug3...)
(...and the gate here isn't any good either, then...)
C.C.

LELOUCH

C.C.
!
They can't have found Lelouch, but...
We've been spotted.
It's Black, all right.
Goodness, they really are attacking 'within the day', aren't they...
SAYOKO
They must really want to eliminate us.
KALLEN
Okay, but let's get back in position first!
Can't you just leave us out of this4...!
Huh?
But — you're...
C.C.
Kallen?!
Sloppy as ever, aren't you.
You're so5—
KALLEN
What are you doing here, C.C.?
C.C.
That's my line.
What are you doing here, of all places...?
SAYOKO
It's been a while, Mistress C.C.
LLOYD
Yes, unfortunately,6
we're here at His Highness Schneizel's request.
We've come to find Zero and Lady Nunnally.
LLOYD
<?>
And this country was the most suspicious...
KALLEN
Of course, we can't just accuse anyone,
they'll complain we don't have any proof
and it'll be a diplomatic incident.
KALLEN
But...
SAYOKO
Yes.
They do seem set on eliminating us now.
Mistress C.C., have you been keeping up with the news?
Oh.
No, I—
Bad luck, if you were just a tourist.
All of you, fall back.
KALLEN
Oh, are you in charge here?
KALLEN
Because if this is your idea of a tourist attraction—
It's a little much, don't you think?
SWAIL
I thought it was pretty appropriate, for dogs from the UFN.
KALLEN
Hmph!
Then let's settle this, one-on-one.
Oh, no.
SWAIL
I'm neither a knight nor a samurai, you see.

Good scenes. I still remember them from the anime. The surprising meeting of C.C. Kallen and the rest. Looking forward to the next chapter. ^^
