Aslan drove along the coastal road. In the evening, the sky was dyed as red as blood, and I wanted to see the cloudless clear sky again, but I was afraid that it would take a long, long time.

Below the road was a sandy shore, with the waves crashing against the shallows. Seeing several figures on the shallows, Aslan slowed down. Among the frolicking little figures, there was a long pink figure, and another teenager sat not far away, looking at the sea. Aslan pulled closer, stopped on the side of the road, honked his horn lightly, and the tiny figures immediately noticed him and ran up screaming with joy.

"Ahh

"That's not right! Alex! ”

"It's Aslan!"

"Huh, what about Cagalli?" The children chattered around Aslan, who had just stepped out of the car. Aslan let them pull and pull as he looked at the three people who were slowly walking from the sea. The girl's smile was full, one hand pressed the pink head raised by the wind, and she held hands, and walking side by side was a handsome young man with a somewhat domineering expression, but after seeing Aslan, his face also showed a slight smile; Behind him was a young man with a gentle expression, and his face still had a hint of childishness—and that face was also smiling quite happily.

"Aslan ......" As soon as he heard the young man who walked at the end shout his name, Aslan suddenly felt that his shoulders were light, and then he realized that he had been tense all along.

Kira Yamato - Aslan's childhood friend was part of the United Earth Forces during the previous war, and was the pilot of what Luna Maria called "the strongest strike". Aslan and he had fought to the death when they knew each other's identities, and now they can be so calm, know each other, and cherish each other, they can hardly imagine at that time.

"Look at the way you look, you're not in a good mood......" The young man who was walking in front looked at Aslan and turned his head to Lux.

Leonard von . The driver who was once a young man who was the strongest ace mechanic in the Valentine's Day incident with Lou Lou Lou Cruz and was the strongest ace mechanic was awarded the Nebula Medal for his amazing performance, but disappeared in the battle of "Yakin Duvey", but in fact, Orb who came wounded lost his memory and now lives with Lux. He is also the most respected person in Aslan.

"You're back. It's hard, isn't it? It was Lux Klein who greeted him softly. She openly opposes Patrick Patrick as an idol singer. The prestige of her home country still stands, but Marchio, a religionist who took refuge on Earth after the war, now lives quietly.

"You're ...... I heard that the house was washed away and you moved here...... Okay? As soon as Aslan mentioned it, the children rushed to tell him about it.

"That's right! The houses are gone! ”

"I didn't see it, but there was something called the Great Wave that came and broke the house! It's all smashed! ”

"We've been hiding in the secret base for a long time!"

"The teacher said that we should move first and wait for the new house to be built."

"Secret base" probably refers to a shelter. Fleeing, losing their homes, and moving to the island of Sileng Keryu was a series of events for them. Most of these children were war orphans, and had previously lived in the mission house built by Marchio on an isolated island off the coast of Orb. (Dear book friends, this book updates the latest and fastest chapters of this book on LVSEXS on the hot book library network.) It doesn't matter where you read my work, but when you see this sentence, please come and support me. I will be very grateful for a flower, a click on a collection, one at a time! Aslan was surrounded by their excited reports, looking a little confused, and Lax couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.

"Oh, oh, look, you guys, please wait a minute. How do you talk like that? She cleverly took the children away. Aslan watched them walk away, and there was a pang of comfort in his eyes. Thankfully, the children are safe.

"Don't look at me! You won't have any insight when you talk to me, and Kira will leave it to you...... Lux~! ......, "Leonard, now known as Reiser, is clearly not good at talking, just like he used to be. And he knew it would be a good idea to hand Aslan over Kira now.

Only the two of them remained.

Kira suddenly asked, "...... Looking for Mr. Marchio? ”

Aslan nodded with a grim expression.

"Hmm...... Although it's not early. Needless to say, Kira seemed to have seen through Aslan's worries.

The two watched the children laugh all the way and run down the beach, and Lux turned around and waved to them: "Kira, you go first, Reeser and I will go back from here with the children~!" ”

The two of them waved to them and walked to the car. A small bird with a greenish metallic sheen flew out of nowhere, flapping its wings and resting on Kira's shoulder. That's the animatronic pet bird Aslan made for Kira when he was a kid.

"Where's Cagalli?" Kira asked in the car.

"Working in the Executive Yuan should be piled up!" Listening to him, Kira smiled bitterly. They all knew that Cagalli was born to sit still. Besides, Kira is Cagalli's twin brother and is more considerate of her.

Their car drove to Asgha's villa. When the mission on the outlying island was destroyed by the waves, one of the Assha family lent the villa to Marciou.

After a while, Aslan asked, "I'm afraid everyone already knows the truth about the fall accident, right?" ”

A shadow appeared on Kira's face, "Uh-huh......"

It was the adjusters who pushed Julius VII down - a fact that the whole world was aware of, and the situation was moving in the direction they feared most.

“…… There are still people in the terrorists who say that. Aslan said reluctantly.

“…… How can you forget the hatred of the victims, laughing in the company of those executioners in a hypocritical world! Kira turned her head to look at him in surprise.

"You're at war with them?"

"I'm going to help blast it, who knew they would show up." Aslan felt a little weak again, and couldn't help but lower his voice and said hatefully. Kira sensed his feelings and stopped talking.

The car turned into a path and walked leisurely through the trees, and after a short time, I came across a quiet mansion. Aslan parked the car in front of the house, but instead of putting his hands off the steering wheel, he sat there silently.

Listening to the ticking of the engine as it cooled, Aslan was slow to speak: "At that time...... I'm asking, and it's also here in Orb......"

Kira, who was also immersed in silence

“…… Do we really have to fight against something? ”

"Hmm." Kira replied softly, with a sense of nostalgia in her voice.

Two years ago -- it seems like a long time ago. Aslan also squinted his eyes unconsciously, feeling that the years in his memories were so dazzling.

On that day, for the first time in his life, Ob Aslan, who was under siege by the Atlantic Federation, violated the mission given by his father and fought alongside Kira to protect Orb. Aslan asked the question in confusion.

"And you say - we can find the answer together......"

"Hmmm......"

At that time, they all felt that as long as they had a partner with them, they could break through the predicament, and they believed that they would definitely find the answer. In despair, they saw a glimmer of hope and ran to it hand in hand.

Aslan lowered his eyes gloomily. "But...... I still haven't found ......"

Today, the partners are still around, but each other's presence is no longer able to comfort each other. Why? Unlike then, he doesn't even know where to go now, knowing that this is not the way to go, but he always feels that there are obstacles everywhere ahead.

Kira's hand pressed lightly against his shoulder. The two sat silently, as if sharing each other's pain.
