Immortal Soul of Steel

Actually, other than avoiding annoying reporters.

There is another reason why Lin Youde doesn't pay attention to the peace talks.

Because Lin Youde knew.

The war between Earth and P.L.A.N.T. will definitely break out again.

The blue cosmos has not been eradicated, nor have the merchants of death been purged.

The fuse of the war will start the war again at any time.

Lin Youde did not interfere too much in these matters.

First, because he is now publicly promoted as the deified "hero" who ended the war, coupled with his own self-destructive propaganda.

He is on the cusp of the limelight along with Liberty Gundam and is not very suitable to continue to be high-profile.

To avoid being used to attack Orb. This would also prevent the dreams of those boys and girls who longed for him from being shattered on the spot.

Second, Siegel, who is now his backer, has temporarily retired, and Padrick is also recuperating.

Although the blame for previous wars was thrown to Cruze, "Genesis" was indeed created by Padrick.

Therefore, in order to allow the peace talks to proceed, and to give P.L.A.N.T. and ZAFT some breathing space.

Padrick took the blame and resigned, recuperating at home.

Siegel retired and Padrick resigned to recuperate.

There is currently no one in P.L.A.N.T. who can be Lin Youde's backer and is suitable to be a leader. Therefore, his rights are quite limited and it is not suitable for excessive interference at this time.

Third, from a long-term perspective, keeping the fuses of these wars to trigger the plot of the second season of SEED-D can trigger more hidden tasks and gain more benefits.

Moreover, among the current candidates for the Speaker of the Supreme Council of P.L.A.N.T., there is a popular candidate that Lin Youde is familiar with—Gilbert Durandal.

The final boss, who will only appear in the second season of the original work, has ascended to the position of speaker of the P.L.A.N.T. Supreme Council, and no one can stop him. And Siegel seemed to think highly of him.

It is currently impossible to change this established fact, and because of the above reasons.

Therefore, Lin Youde chose to accept this relatively good result.

Naturally, there was no intention to pay attention to the agreement signed in the peace talks, which was destined to be torn up.

After secretly taking Lux to live in seclusion in a beachside villa, Lin Youde finally received a notification from the system one day.

[The current development of the "real-time plot mode" has come to an end and settlement has begun. 】

Lin Youde was shocked and looked at the settlement panel.

…

Look at this reward, or choice.

Lin Youde was stunned.

"What's wrong, Kira?"

Lux's voice came from behind.

Lin Youde turned back and looked at Lux.

Lux opened the balcony door and held on to the door, wearing a white dress. The hem of the skirt swayed gently in the sea breeze. Her long pink hair also fluttered in the wind.

Seeing Lux like this, Lin Youde had already made a choice in his heart...

Gently pressing her long pink hair blown by the wind with her hands, Lux said softly to Lin Youde.

"Kira, it's getting late. Come in quickly, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold."

"Um."

In response, Lin Youde took Lux's hand and returned to the house.

But just when Lux was about to go downstairs, Lin You pulled her back.

Lux turned around in confusion: "Kira?"

Lin Youde looked at Lacus seriously: "Lacus, I have something to tell you..."

Lux was a little confused: "Huh? What's wrong? Your expression is so serious. What happened?"

With a worried expression, Lux was led by Lin Youde to sit on the bed very obediently.

Lin Youde put his arm around Lux's shoulders and said.

"I gotta go."

Lux was puzzled: "Go? Where to go? Isn't the war over now?"

Lin Youde shook his head: "Yes, the war is over, so I have to leave."

"I'm going to a place far, far away and I won't be able to come back for the time being."

"Are you willing to come with me?"

Lux was even more puzzled: "If you want to leave, of course I will go with you. But I want to know where is the place far, far away? Mars?"

Lin Youde shook his head again and solemnly said: "Another world!"

Lux looked surprised: "Another world? Kira, are you kidding? Another world or something, how is it possible..."

Lacus stopped talking because she saw Lin Youde's serious and unchanged face.

Seeing Lin Youde like this, Lux was silent for a moment and held Lin Youde's hand.

"I-don't know what exactly you are talking about. But if you want to leave, I will go with you."

"Even if it's another world, I will follow you."

He looked at Lux who looked worried but had a very firm attitude.

Lin Youde felt warm in his heart.

Hugging Lacus who fell into his arms, Lin Youde whispered: "Thank you, Lacus...Thank you for trusting me so much."

Lux shook her head slightly and said nothing.

Seeing Lux who was silent like this, Lin Youde pinched Lux's cheek and said.

"But you don't have to worry. Although it's another world, it's not like we can't come back."

Hearing this, Lux looked happy: "Eh? Really? Can we come back?"

Lin Youde smiled slightly: "Of course, we will come back. But it will probably take about one to two years."

Lux laughed with relief: "Then there will be no problem. As long as I have a chance to come back and see my father, I don't care where I go, I will follow you."

Lux leaned into Lin Youde's arms, feeling so relieved that she closed her eyes. Lin Youde, on the other hand, looked at the settlement interface on the side and stretched out his hand.

"Then it's decided... let's go together!"

This plot is finally finished, and I can write the rest of the plot.

Are there any kind readers who can give me some votes?

I’m begging you~!
