Gundam: A Gundam Enthusiast's Journey with a Mecha Girl

But this overwhelming malice did not deter Raven; instead, it strengthened his will to fight.

"How can we let your despair engulf this world! You are not fit to live, disappear from here!"

The S Gundam's biosensors sensed Raven's will—a will to set off towards the future, towards the stars. A faint emerald light emanated from the S Gundam's cockpit, spreading outwards layer by layer like the beating of a heart, eventually enveloping the entire S Gundam in this gentle yet resolute glow.

Raven's world became clearer than ever before.

The remaining Dragoons of the Divine Will approached the S Gundam from all directions, but Raven could clearly see the movement of each Dragoon.

Raven's fingers swept across the various buttons in the cockpit, and all the weapons on the S Gundam's body erupted at once, each beam precisely predicting the DRAGOON's movement trajectory.

The number of DRAGOON riders instantly decreased by more than half, while the emerald green light emanating from the S Gundam continued to extend. The mental fluctuations emitted by the biosensors gradually dissolved the malice that covered almost the entire universe. This fluctuation even temporarily severed the divine will's control over the DRAGOON riders.

"The Dragoon can't move?! Could there be some new equipment on that machine that I haven't seen before?"

For the first time, a hint of panic crept into Kruse's voice.

The emerald green light enveloping the S Gundam gradually approached the divine will. Kruze gritted his teeth and projected his will onto the S Gundam.

"No matter what, humanity will eventually perish, and you will be the sacrifice for destruction!"

Kruze's malice became fuel for the beam saber, and the beam saber of divine will turned purple, the same color as Kruze's will. The beam saber transformed into a giant whip with an eerie purple hue, and lashed out fiercely at the S Gundam.

However, just as the light whip was about to touch the S Gundam, the S Gundam suddenly separated into upper and lower parts. The attack that was supposed to cut the S Gundam in half instantly missed its target. The upper body of the separated S Gundam maintained its human form and, using all the momentum it retained before separation, continued to rush towards the divine will.

The deep purple light covering the surface of the Divine Will was neutralized by Raven's will, and the beam saber precisely pierced into the cockpit of the Divine Will.

This man, cursed from birth, eventually turned into cosmic dust along with his mask.

Kruze vanished with his endless malice, and the wills absorbed into the psycho-frame surged forth from the remnants of divine will at this moment. The residual wills of countless people triggered a resonance between the biosensors and the psycho-frame.

A strange glowing phenomenon emerged from it, identical to the unusual glowing phenomenon that appeared outside the Jakin-Duve Fortress several months ago.

The ever-expanding pink sphere of light gently enveloped the remnants of divine will and the upper body of the S Gundam.

In that instant, Raven saw the time.

Chapter 100 The Diva's Recording (End of Seed Volume)

Obu, Yarafa Island.

The evening breeze from the South Pacific, carrying the scent of the sea, gently blew into a bedroom through the open window, lightly brushing against Lux's long pink hair.

Lux turned her gaze away from the starry sky, pressed the start button on the recorder, and wrote down what she wanted to leave for someone.

[Raven, it has been five months since the Second Battle of Jachin-Duvee.]

Since that day, the interim chairman of PLANT, Kanaba, risked his political future and, with his father's full assistance, successfully reached a ceasefire agreement with the Earth Alliance.

Just a few days ago, the Treaty of Junius was officially signed, and peace finally returned to the world.

After the war, General Halbarton united the East Asian Republic, Ob and a number of neutral countries to form the international peacekeeping organization "Compass". He successfully mediated the war crisis between the United States of South America and the Atlantic Federation, allowing the United States of South America to peacefully gain independence.

By the way, I heard from General Halbarton… now he should be called President Halbarton, anyway, that the name 'Compass' was something you casually mentioned in a conversation, which is quite your style.

Lux recalled the young man's voice, and a slight smile appeared on her lips, revealing a gentleness she herself was unaware of.

Oh, by the way, let me tell you where everyone went after the war ended. So much happened while you were gone, and everyone asked me to tell you their choices so that when you come back, they won't feel like they missed out on so much.

After Uncle Patrick's death, Father grieved privately for a long time. He did not return to PLANT's political arena, but instead accepted the invitation of President Halbarton to serve as a special advisor within "The Compass." To maintain this hard-won peace, he now travels constantly between PLANT and Earth, mediating between various factions.

Miss Maru did not return to the Allied Forces, but instead became a member of the "Compass" peacekeeping force, continuing to fight for peace alongside everyone on the Archangel. The Archangel was very active in the recent South American war crisis and the operation to protect the signing of the Treaty of Junius.

Miss Bucky Lulu did not remain on the Archangel. Her talents were recognized by President Halbarton, and she was officially appointed as the captain of a newly built Archangel-class warship, forming a new force to carry out peacekeeping missions around the world.

Speaking of which, I recently received an invitation to Miss Maru and Mr. Mu's engagement ceremony. After everything they've been through, they've finally come together—congratulations!

Miss Cagalli and everyone on the Kusanagi returned to Orb safely.

Devastated by war, Aub is gradually regaining its former vitality with the aid of the East Asian Republic. The city is being rebuilt, and smiles are returning to people's faces.

After the war, Orb held a new round of elections, and you'd never guess who the new national representative was!

Lux paused deliberately for a moment while speaking into the recorder, as if she were having a face-to-face conversation with someone.

"It was Cagalli! Even you couldn't have predicted this outcome. The Asuka family's popularity in Orb, their courage to fight to the end for peace against a powerful enemy, and Cagalli's straightforward personality that makes her hard to dislike, all contributed to her successful election as the new nation's representative."

Hmm, but to be honest, I always had the feeling that Cagalli was chosen as a national icon rather than a national representative...

Lux's bedroom was silent for a while, then Lux continued her monologue with two light coughs.

After returning to Orb, Ms. Asagi, Ms. Mayura, and Ms. Julie, who led the M1 heretical squad on the Kusanagi, took on the role of instructors for the MS unit, passing on their experience to the new pilots of Orb and the Compass.

Mr. Kira and everyone on the Archangel joined the Compass organization, but he did not choose to stay on the Archangel to carry out frontline missions. Instead, he returned to the Dawn Organization with Director Erica, where he assisted her in completing the design blueprints you left behind.

According to Mr. Kira, after the armistice was signed, both the Earth Alliance and ZAFT began developing next-generation mobile suits. War could break out again at any time. In order for Compass to have the power to confront any force that tries to disrupt peace in the future, Compass must have its own next-generation mobile suit development plan.

Mr. Kira and Director Erica are currently busy working on Project Z, which you left in the database.

In short, Mr. Kira will likely be unable to get any new vacations for quite some time to come.

As for Aslan...

Lux couldn't help but sigh as she thought of her childhood sweetheart.

The death of Uncle Patrick was a huge blow to him. Athrun's mother died in the Blood Valentine incident, and now his father is gone too. In just one year, he has lost all his loved ones. However, with the support of Mr. Kira and Miss Cagalli, he is slowly but surely picking himself up.

However, he did not choose to return to PLANT. He did not want to be used as a banner for continuing the war by the remnants of the Zara faction. Instead, he went into hiding and joined the Compass with Kira, operating in the shadows to maintain peace.

As for me...

Lux placed the recorder on her lap, leaned back in the soft chair, raised her hands above her head, stretched, and a lazy humming sound appeared in the recording.

After letting out a long sigh, Lux raised her eyes again and turned her gaze to the starry sky outside the window, the same sky she had gazed at countless times with that young man.

Unlike Mr. Kira, who could decipher the blueprints you left behind, or Aslan, who possessed the power to subdue all enemies, all I could do was continue singing. To convey your and everyone's vision of peace, I will sing all over the world. All proceeds from the tour will be donated to post-war reconstruction projects around the world. In this way, I can say that I have made my own small contribution to this peace.

Everyone has started their new lives, but everyone is waiting for your return, so...

Lux touched her cheek, recalling that day, the warmth she felt in that gentle emerald light, and the promise Raven's soul made to her.

Please return safely, as you promised. This time, don't break your promise.

Lux turned off the recorder, carefully cradled the pink soldier ant in her palm, and poured her thoughts into her song.

"Holding the proof of water, it embraces the flames within, flowing broadly and gently until it reaches that tranquility."

"One day, one day, I will definitely hold your hand..."

Ending Remarks

Hello everyone, I'm a new author, GuGu.

First and foremost, it's the usual request for votes, subscriptions, and favorites!

Please, this is really important to me!

Okay, I'll take it.

As you can see, Rai's journey in the Seed world has come to a temporary end, and the rest of the story in the Seed world will have to wait until Rai returns to Seed to tell it.

In order to write this fan fiction, I went back and read the original work from beginning to end.

Indeed, classic works are a pleasure to appreciate no matter when you do them.

So, when did the first mechs enter the mech war?

Well, on another note, before I knew it, this book had reached 23 words. When I started writing, I really didn't expect to write so much. Although the results were terrible, this can be considered my first step on the road of writing.

Speaking of results, I recently discovered that when searching for "Gundam" in the search bar on the cat website, it takes a long time to find the book.

Well, this book flopped so badly, and besides my terrible writing, lack of imagination, and always updating during the worst possible time, there must be another reason... right?

Therefore, I've been thinking of a new title recently, such as "Gundam: A Gundam Enthusiast and a Mecha Girl's Gundam Journey". Putting Gundam first should make it appear in the top search results. I wonder if this can salvage the book's pitiful exposure.

By the way, I'd like to respond to a reader's complaint here. The data for the Lightning Backpack isn't something I made up; it's from a mecha design introduction video on Bilibili. Just take this kind of data with a grain of salt, after all…

There's no need to get to the bottom of things with Gundam.jpg

In short, starting from the next chapter, Rai and El will begin their adventure in the next world, and as for which world it is, everyone should already know.

Finally, thank you for reading this far. I'm GuGu, a new author. See you in the next volume!
