Immortal Soul of Steel

Putting aside the hidden mission for the time being, Lin Youde and Aslan chatted.

Both of them knew that there might be another big battle in Julius 7.

Neither the Earth United nor the Librarians will give up just like this.

So now is just the calm before the storm, the real war is behind.

The two of them knew this very well, so they were trying to relax as much as possible.

While the two chatted, the transport ship spent several more hours before finally rendezvousing with the Minerva.

The Freedom Gundam and the Justice Gundam returned and boarded the ship. Lin Youde and Aslan stepped off the mobile suit and went to the pilot's lounge to take a break.

Here, except Lin Youde and Aslan, everyone else is not here.

When the two came back before, Shin Asuka, Luna, and Ray, together with Yitzhak, Diego, and Nicol, flew mobile suits to escort the engineering troops.

This is the arrangement of Captain Thalia Kuradis.

It was learned that the two men had protected the engineering troops for several hours and encountered various battles along the way. Captain Taliyah Kuradis also agreed with Lin Youde's judgment and believed that the work of the engineering force would be hindered in the future.

Freedom Gundam and Justice Gundam are important combat forces, so they must be given sufficient rest to maintain their combat effectiveness.

For this reason, Zhen Asuka and others went out to protect them, which could be regarded as buying a little rest time for the two of them.

"Kira, Aslan!"

With a click, the door to the lounge was opened.

Lux and Mayu Asuka floated in with two plates.

"Lux, Mayu-chan~! Why are you here?"

In Lin Youde's confused expression, Lux smiled and wiped Lin Youde's face with a towel, and then handed over the tea and biscuits on the plate.

"I know that you have been fighting without rest or eating anything. I will discuss with Mayu-chan and bring you something to eat and drink."

"After all, there will probably be fighting in the future. How can we fight when we are hungry?"

Lin Youde took the tea cup and biscuits handed over by Lux, let Lux wipe his face, and said with a smile: "As expected of my wife, she is so considerate."

Lux smiled sweetly and gently wiped Lin Youde's face, showing the tenderness of a good wife.

Compared with Lin Youde's joy here, Aslan was much more embarrassed on the other side.

Aslan huddled on the sofa and kept trying to retreat: "No, Mayu-chan, I can do it myself."

Mayu Asuka came over with a snicker and held a towel: "No! Mr. Aslan is one of the great contributors to the safe arrival of the engineering team this time. How can we let the great contributor continue to work hard? This is such a small thing. I can still do it.”

"And Princess Cagalli is not here now, so Mr. Aslan must be very lonely, right?"

"After all, Mr. Kira and Miss Lux are spreading dog food over there. Mr. Aslan is also envious, right?"

"It's okay, just let me do it..."

Aslan kept evading: "No, no, really no, I can just do it myself, really..."

Mayu Asuka had a bad smile on her face: "It's just a face wipe, Mr. Aslan, it's okay. I am a medical soldier. There is no distinction between men and women in front of doctors. Come on..."

Aslan howled: "There's really no need..."

Seeing Aslan's embarrassed look, Lin Youde and Lux ​​both laughed.

"Kira, Lux, you guys are here to help."

Seeing Aslan asking for help, Lin Youde also spoke to persuade him.

"Okay, Mayu-chan, stop teasing Aslan."

"If your brother finds out about this, I'm afraid he won't come back to cause trouble for Aslan."

Mayu Asuka's face was full of pity: "Since Mr. Kira said so, then fine."

Aslan was pardoned like a dream and quickly picked up a towel to wipe his face, as if he was afraid that Mayu would regret it.

In response, Lin Youde also smiled and said nothing more.

Lin Youde understood that Aslan was not really so innocent. After all, Aslan was a married man, so he could still accept having his face wiped by a medic.

But at the door behind Mayu Bird, Stella was holding a camera and taking completely unconcealed candid photos with an innocent look on her face. Everyone knew that Mayu Bird was plotting something evil and wanted to set a trap for Aslan.

In order not to get himself into trouble, Aslan was naturally very resistant and refused to jump into the pit.

Who knows what Mayu Asuka is planning.

Mayu Asuka's little conspiracy failed, so she sadly left with Stella.

Mayu's matter is just a small episode, after Mayu Asuka leaves.

After Lin Youde and Aslan took a short rest, they stood up during Meiling's broadcast announcement.

"An unknown MS reaction has been detected near Julius 7, Freedom Gundam and Justice Gundam are ready to attack!"

Hearing this, Lin Youde and Aslan knew that they were busy again.

The two stood up, and Lux ​​said with a smile: "Go ahead, leave it to me to clean up. You go and protect Julius 7 from falling to the earth."

The two nodded, ran out of the lounge, and boarded the machine.

Lin Youde: "Kira Yamato, Freedom Gundam, attack!"

Aslan: "Aslan Sara, Justice Gundam, attack!"

As soon as the two aircraft flew out from the Minerva, a ray of light hit them.

"What?"

As Aslan exclaimed, a green beam flew out of the dark universe and headed straight towards the Freedom Gundam.

Thanks to Lin Youde's quick reaction and pulling up the Freedom Gundam's shield to block it in time, he was not injured.

Aslan exclaimed: "Kira!"

Lin Youde replied instantly: "I'm fine, but..."

Aslan also looked towards the direction where the beam of light just came from: "How could it be attacked at such a distance?"

"Is someone ambushing us?"

"But at this distance, why didn't the Minerva find it?"

Under Lin Youde's solemn gaze and Aslan's puzzled gaze, a red Thunder Gundam appeared from the dark universe not far from the Minerva.

At the same time, a female voice was also transmitted into the cockpit of the two people through the regional public frequency.

"As expected of Kira Yamato, he can react to this."

"Sure enough, it's not that easy to capture you."

Looking at the red Thunder Gundam, Aslan's eyelids jumped: "A derivative model of the Thunder Gundam?"

Lin Youde said solemnly: "Librarian?"

When the two of them stared at the red Thunder Gundam, Taliyah Kuradis and Durandal were also startled in the bridge of the Minerva.

Meiling exclaimed: "MS reaction occurred near the Minerva, the distance is 200!!!"

First Mate Arthur stood up in shock: "What? Distance 200? Why didn't you notice it before!?"

Thalia Kuradis also shrank her pupils: "Such a close distance? A mirage system?"

Although Durandal was also frightened, he quickly calmed down.

"It's okay. Prince Kira and Aslan are here, and a mere MS is not enough evidence."
