Chapter 279: Late Confusion

It was getting late and the sun was setting in the west. I wonder if even the sky was lamenting the cruelty of war, adding a touch of blood to the golden desert.

"Kira, you are here."

Yang Hui took the food and looked around, only to find Kira in a remote corner. Accompanying him was Fleur.

"Yang Hui..."

For some reason, Kira felt that it was difficult to face Yang Hui, her eyes dodge, and she wanted to leave but her feet could not move.

Seeing this, Yang Hui shook his head and asked Fleur, who was leaning closely against Kira: "Can I borrow your boyfriend for a few minutes?"

"No! Yang Hui, Fleur is not..."

"Stop it." Seeing Kira's panicked defense, Yang Hui immediately stopped him, "Now that you've done it, take responsibility. You're a man, aren't you?"

Kira was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Fleur who was about to cry, lowered her head again, but held Fleur's hand.

After Fleur felt the warmth of her palm, she was suddenly stunned for a moment. Her pitiful performance was interrupted. She looked at Kira and then at Yang Hui at a loss.

"Can I borrow Kira for a few minutes?"

"..." Fleur did not answer, but looked at Kira with very complicated eyes.

She didn't want Kira to be alone with Yang Hui, because she was afraid that Yang Hui would see something and persuade Kira to leave her, or Kira wouldn't be able to keep her mouth shut and would speak ill of Yang Hui in private and sow discord between the two. Tell Yang Hui.

But...at this moment, the warmth of her palms left a drop of melting water on her cold heart. At this moment, she suddenly wanted to listen to Kira. She would leave if Kira asked her to leave.

"Fleur, can you please wait for a few minutes?" Kira asked Fleur softly.

"...It's okay." He was silent for a while, hiding his disappointment in his heart, and slowly left with the food in hand.

Yang Hui glanced at Fleur's back, then sat on the floor in front of Kira, swallowing the food with big mouthfuls.

"Yang Hui..."

"Fill your stomach first. Food is very precious in the desert. Don't waste it."

"..."

In silence, Kira couldn't understand Yang Hui more and more. He specially sent Fleur away to talk to him, but when Fleur left, he told himself that the food was precious and he should eat quickly?

Forget it, stop thinking, just listen to Yang Hui. It has always been like this before, right?

Kira also followed Yang Hui's example and wolfed down the food. After a few clicks, the two of them finished the food.

At this time, it was completely dark, and the firelight imprinted on the faces of the two people, exacerbating the dull atmosphere.

"Yang Hui... Fulei..."

"Stop it, don't tell me about your relationship problems. I don't care. Just remember to send me an invitation when you get married."

"Eh~? We're not..."

"Kira."

"Um."

"Do you remember what I said to you when we parted?"

"Remember."

"As I say, just do whatever you want and don't worry too much about other things."

"But Fleur and Sai..."

"That's the choice."

"choose?"

"Yes, although you are still underage, you are already a person who can take charge of your own affairs. Now that you have made a choice, you must bear the consequences of the choice."

"But... I really don't know what to do, Yang Hui. After you left, I was very confused. I still want to protect Thor and the others, but I also hate fighting. I really hate it!"

"I know."

"But if I don't fight, I can't protect them! When what you want to do and what you don't want to do overlap, what will you choose?" Kira asked Yang Hui.

"Simple."

"Eh?"

"Just find the purpose of fighting."

"I'm not……"

"You don't have a firm will at all now, Kira, and the same goes for your relationship with Fleur." Yang Hui looked up at the bright starry sky and said to Kira, "Because your will is not firm, that's why you feel uncomfortable , Fighting... is indeed something that should be uncomfortable. After all, the essence of fighting is killing, and no glamorous excuse can hide this fact. "

"..." Kira was silent. Yang Hui's words hit the scar on his heart. The reason why he hated fighting was because he didn't want to kill people and didn't want to see anyone die.

"But people with a strong will will not back down because of this, because they, we, have a clear goal, a goal that must be completed even if it means killing people."

"What... target?"

"I don't know about the others, but my word... protect them."

"guard?"

"Yes, it is to protect, to protect the people I love, to protect everything I cherish. This is the reason why I fight."

"But...do you really not care? Someone dies..."

"Yes."

"Eh?"

"If someone wants to destroy everything I hold dear, even if they kill people, I will protect them."

"...You are really amazing, Yang Hui." Kira shook her head bitterly, and looked up at the stars with Yang Hui, "I'm not as powerful as you, I really can't accept it."

"Then try not killing anyone, Kira."

"Eh?"

"There are many types of battles, and there are also non-killing ones, such as MS battles. Making the opponent lose the ability to fight is also a way to end the battle."

"Is it really possible?" Kira stood up in surprise and asked Yang Hui.

"Okay, but you have to be prepared."

"What preparation?"

"You are more likely to die, and your companions are also more likely to die."

"This!"

"So Kira, all of this is a choice. If you choose to be kind to the enemy, you will be cruel to yourself and your companions, and the enemy will not thank you for your kindness, but will only laugh at you for being stupid, and then bring more enemies."

"I... I don't want this result!"

"Then hold on, Kira, or are you willing to give up Thor and Frey, and escape alone?"

"Absolutely not! I can't abandon Thor and the others! I won't abandon Frey either!"

"Then hold on, Kira, and make yourself stronger and stronger, not only in MS driving skills." As he said, Yang Hui's fingers touched Kira's heart, "and your heart, the real The strength of the heart is the strength of the soul. "

"I... I am not as strong as you, Yang Hui... and Frey... I have hurt Saiyi. He has paid so much for me, but I..."

"No one is born strong, Kira, and I am the same." Yang Hui stood up and took his and Kira's plates and was about to leave. "I can't give you advice on emotional matters, but... if it were me, I would try to maintain both sides."

"Eh?"

"I am an adult, Kira." Yang Hui turned his back to Kira and teased, "Children make choices, I want them all! Hahaha..."

Hearing Yang Hui's domineering speech and arrogant laughter, Kira was stunned for a while, and only came back to his senses until Yang Hui walked away.

"This guy, what are you talking about? Aren't you and I the same age?" Kira shook his head and smiled bitterly, and also sighed that this is Yang Hui, who is always so confident.

"All of them? Can I do that?"

...

Yang Hui stopped walking with the plate in his hand and said to the shadow beside him seriously: "I know you are using Kira and I know you hate me. I am not qualified to persuade you to let go of your hatred or ask for your forgiveness, but... protect him. He can protect all of you, but now you are the only one who can protect him."

After saying that, Yang Hui continued to walk forward regardless of whether there was any response. It was not until he walked away that Fulei came out of the shadow. Her expression was complex and ferocious, but not scary at all. Instead, she made people feel pitiful.

"What? He is obviously just a murderer, he obviously knows nothing, he is just a big talker! Kira is just my tool! I will use him to kill all the adjusters! And you! I will kill you too! But..." As he thought about it, warm tears could not stop flowing down, "But why... tell me this, I don't need your pity! I... I... Kira..."

...

After Yang Hui put the plate in the storage place, he did not chat with anyone else. He found a quiet place and continued to appreciate the mystery and depth of the starry sky.

"Why do you like to pretend to be deep more and more?" Lyle came over and sat directly next to Yang Hui.

"I'm tired, what else can I do?" Yang Hui complained.

"You asked for this too." Lyle teased.

Originally, they could have continued the practice of the Gundam AGE world, relying on powerful driving skills and a technological level beyond this world, to establish an independent force and then become heroes, or repeat the practice of the Gundam OO world, and once again become the behind-the-scenes boss to challenge the whole world, and in the process of concentrating hatred, clear the distortion points such as [Blue Cosmos] and [Logos], and finally retire.

Although this is also very tiring, it is definitely much better than now. Look at how many things Yang Hui has to worry about now?

Combat, scientific research, diplomacy, economy, internal affairs... All the things of a country need him to worry about, how can it not be tiring?

"I just want to experience this kind of life." Yang Hui grinned.

"Haha, you can't fool Miss Huang and Wang Liumei with this, but maybe you can fool Cagalli."

"Yeah, that's true."

What "want to experience life" is a lie. Yang Hui chose to manage a country for future considerations.

As Promise Fortress grows stronger and stronger, and more and more worlds are connected, he will inevitably come into contact with these things.

Promise Fortress has no country, but each world connected is a different country. As a commander, he naturally has to ensure that each world can be in the same mind with Promise Fortress, otherwise there will be civil strife, and they will be finished without waiting for unknown enemies to appear.

"Okay, now Cagalli has been found, and we should go back."

"It's hard to say."

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing, just a hunch." Yang Hui said, looking at the Archangel docked next to it, "I always feel that my fate with this ship has not ended yet."

At this moment, the front-line command post suddenly became chaotic.

"It's bad! Tasiel was attacked by the ZAFT army!"
