Gundam, driving a mass-produced machine will change the world

Chapter 118 Do You Know What I Wrote?
His back felt slightly numb, but Eli smiled and nodded to Lamba Lal before leaving the room.

Then Eli turned around and stared at Sera until Lamba Lal closed the door, blocking their view.

"..."

Eli was silent for a long time.

"You two are indeed a couple."

Eli turned around and saw General Rebir had already lit his pipe and had a mischievous smile on his face that was totally inconsistent with his status.

General Rebir has actually always been such a person, always treating his subordinates well in non-war times.

What's more, Eli is a man who has made many military achievements.

General Rebir patted Eli on the shoulder and motioned for him to follow.

"I have already erased her experience with Zeon. If you want, it's not a bad idea for her to stay in the Federation in the future."

General Rebir said this in the corridor with Eli.

At both ends of the corridor, no one had approached for a long time.

It was obvious that General Rebil had given orders in advance to block this corridor.

"However, in this case, Sera will have to leave the army and stay in the area I have designated. Her personal freedom will need to be restricted to a certain extent - of course, not to the point of being confined to her house."

Rebir wasn't looking at Eli, but at the closed door.

Eli knew that Lamba Lal inside was probably saying the same thing.

"So what if Sera doesn't stay in the Federation?"

"This matter depends on Sera's own will."

General Rebir exhaled a puff of smoke and said to Eli.

"Do you need to tell me this?"

Eli hung his head, obviously muffled.

"You are the man Sera has entrusted her body and soul to, right? Personally speaking, I naturally hope that you can stay with Miss Sera until the end."

Eli remained silent.

He believed that Rebil was thinking this from the bottom of his heart.

But since there are personal words, there are also impersonal words.

"...Captain Eli, you have a pretty good political sense. You should be able to understand what I want to say."

Eli understood.

Ultimately, Revil still hopes that Sera can return to Zeon.

This will not only allow the family name "Deiken" to quickly stabilize the internal environment of the Republic of Zeon, but also, because of Sera's experience in the Federation's military and the actual deal between Ramba Ral and Rebil, Rebil will be able to influence Zeon's political tendencies to a certain extent.

However, to do so would mean sacrificing the happiness of both people.

"But I don't intend to use justice or interests to hold you hostage, Eli. Whether you persuade him or not, it will not affect your due treatment and honor, including the shares of Yashio Heavy Industries will still be given to you."

When General Rebil said this, he was obviously still hesitant.

As mentioned before, General Rebir needs to think about the greater good instead of making concessions for one person's personal interests like this.

"But I do hope for the stability of the Earth Federation. This is not just about Zeon, but is actually related to the inhabitants of the universe and the Earth Federation. I want a more stable society so that the Federation can have enough time to correct itself and stop clinging to the status quo on Earth."

Rebil is not a so-called Earth supremacist. What he said is merely his vision as the maintainer of the Federation.

After experiencing this war, anyone with some insight should be able to understand the problems facing the Federation now.

The difference is that some people want change, while others just want to maintain the status quo.

Hearing General Rebil say this, Eli's heart was touched.

As expected, there is hope for change in the Federation. If I cooperate with General Revil, I will definitely be able to change this Universal Century for the better.

But Eli finally shook his head.

"I'm sorry, General, let her make the decision if possible."

Eli looked up at the closed door and sensed that Sera inside was also having a messy thought.

"Is that so... He is indeed a man of love and justice."

General Rebir did not insist, but continued smoking.

The door soon opened again.

But the person who came out was only Lamba Lal.

Lamba Lal didn't say much, just gestured for Eli to go inside.

Eli was silent.

Lamba Lal’s reaction is the answer itself.

Eli walked in, and Lamba Lal still closed the door considerately.

In the final eye contact, Eli saw a hint of apology in Lamba Lal's eyes.

That was certainly not an apology to Eli, but the emotions generated by making Artesia do something she didn't want to do were also passed on to Eli.

Eli did not respond to Lamba Lal. He turned and walked into the room only after the door was completely closed.

Sera was sitting on the sofa with her back to him.

Eli could feel the sadness, and determination, emanating from the pre-teen girl.

"You could have stayed with me forever, and we could have continued living together."

Even though he had just said outside that he would not interfere with Sera's decision, when he actually faced Sera, he still felt an inner desire.

Eli, didn't want Sierra to leave.

They had just gotten together.

"Eli, I really didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing... I always felt that it was not what I wanted to do."

Sera still had her back to him, twirling her hair.

"But, after seeing what you want to do, I think my idea seems a bit too selfish...Isn't it right to say that?"

When she said the last sentence, Sera let out a cry-like laugh.

"I always want to help you, but even if I ride a Gundam, I can't catch up with you. Eli, I want to help you with your dream, even if it's--ugh!"

Eli didn't say anything else, but hugged Sera's body from behind, turned his head and kissed Sera's lips.

Salty tears flowed into their mouths, but the two people who had already fallen on the bed didn't care about such things.

They only have eyes for each other.

Sera's military uniform half-exposed her upper body, and temporarily covered the key parts tightly, revealing her chest which was usually tightly covered but actually looked a little surprising.

Eli, who didn't even know why he was on the bed, suddenly calmed down when he saw Sera like this.

"Wait, Sera, maybe we should calm down, this kind of thing is still..."

"Fool."

Despite Eli's excuses, Sera had no intention of giving up.

With a flushed face, she held Eli's shoulders and rode on him.

Then, she leaned over, bit Eli's shoulder gently, and pressed her chest against Eli's body...
