While discussing the troubled matters, Theon summarized what happened in Yadong in a corner of the hangar.
Regarding what happened in Yadong, not everyone, even those in the human army, knew the details.
Especially for people in the technical department, it is difficult to obtain other information other than combat plans directly related to their work. In fact, the only events they know about are the video content released by terrorists to the world through the Internet. old.
"Oh, so that's it."
After describing Theon's murder of dozens of terrorists, Gee's reaction was simple.
There was no fear or vigilance towards Theon at all.
"It's very ordinary."
"What's wrong, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
"...Oh, this possibility is also in my field of vision - it hurts so much."
In the middle of the sentence, one of Theon's ears was mercilessly pulled, and he screamed, but Ji did not leave his ear.
"You think that I, your good friend and partner, would give up on you without even listening to your words. This hits me the hardest."
"With all due respect, that's abnormal? A level where mass killings and thousand-year love would also cool down."
"Then my friendship is more passionate than a thousand-year love?"
Ji changed his violent behavior just now and put a shoulder to himself. He answered "yes, yes" randomly, feeling a little relieved.
Even his best friend Ji is likely to take this opportunity to leave Xion.
Although Theon himself feels no guilt for killing terrorists, he also knows that it is considered a bad thing by ordinary people.
Based on general ethics, it is natural to feel disgusted with this kind of Theon.
Therefore, no matter who left her, there was nothing she could do, and she was mentally prepared to accept it.
"So, what about the most important worry?"
"It's not that I'm worried, I'm probably just a little depressed."
There is nothing I can do about it, and I am mentally prepared to accept it.
But that doesn't mean there aren't any feelings.
"Because some people are easily estranged, they are bluer than usual. To be honest, I didn't realize it myself."
If Gee hadn't pointed it out this way, I'm afraid this little sentimentality wouldn't have been noticed.
There was just something a little bit like noise that made Theon feel a little different than usual.
"Forget it, leave it alone, time will take care of it."
Considering what happened this time, it was wise for Akid to keep his distance from Theon.
In addition, this was a matter of his mood, so Theon had no room to intervene.
There is no action that Theon should take.
But Ji who listened to him didn't think so.
"Then why don't we go and make peace?"
"...Ah, it turns out they are a couple."
The idiot said something strange, and Xion held his head on the spot.
The person involved said "I'm not an idiot!", expressing his dissatisfaction in a simple and understandable manner, but Theon ignored it.
"Reconciliation is a matter between several people who were quarreling, and it has nothing to do with the pattern this time."
"Well, maybe, I can't think of anything else nice to say."
He just laughed at the accusation from the calm Theon.
"Anyway, that's it. The point is, you still want to have a good relationship with someone you have a gap with, right?"
"No? I didn't say that at all."
It would be better to say that the tone of "forget it as time goes by" should be directed at Ji, but this stupid man seems to have completely ignored that and jumped to another conclusion.
"Ah? When there is a gap, your mood will turn blue. Doesn't it mean that as long as you find a way to eliminate the gap, your mood will become happy?"
"While it would be wrong to generalize, the theory is too simple... and I didn't think about resolving this gap."
The creation of estrangement is the inevitable result of Theon's actions, and Theon only intends to accept it calmly.
This is undoubtedly what Theon meant.
"What matters this time is the other person's mood...On the other hand, anything else is meaningless and will become unnecessary noise."
"Ah...I'm not sure either."
"Anyway, I'm not doing anything, and I don't plan to do anything!"
"It's not someone else, it's obviously you who is feeling down?"
"Thanks to that fool, I have some energy. As long as I don't care about him, I will find a solution soon."
For the time being, His Highness, a dear friend who deserves love, accepted Xion’s case even though he knew about the incident.
Just knowing this fact makes it worthwhile to discuss worries like this.
And, if we don’t get to work, the thunder of images may fall.
As soon as I pointed it out, Ji ran towards "morning" with the anxious Ji.
"Hey, Theon."
"Huh? What else?"
"......No, forget it now. I don't know what to say."
Ji showed a rare troubled expression, and Xion tilted his head while starting to prepare for "morning" as usual.
Just as they were about to arrive at the human military base in Asia—more strictly speaking, the Bay Area—the battle with the invaders took place.
Having said that, what happened now was a few hours ago, and it was not a big deal to Les Curtis and the others who actually attacked.
On the way to the Bay Area, the intruders encountered at sea were a type of fish that imitated moving in the sea. Although they were individuals that had never been encountered before, the number was definitely not large. Through four mobile armors The "Ark" and "Mist" inquiries were handled without issue.
There were no losses on our side, and "Misty" arrived at the Bay Area base safely.
However, this incident made Reese realize something was a bit difficult...
More strictly speaking, I was convinced before the battle took place.
From a small dissonance to a certainty...what to do about it?
This is currently causing trouble for Les.
"...Should I ask?"
Having arrived safely at the human military base in the Bay Area, most of the crew of "Mist" were instructed to rest.
Les was no exception, sweating in the shower inside the boat.
Although there are only simple partitions, each shower has its corresponding space.
Although it is a simple thing that can be seen through by the people next to you if you make a sound, a small space by yourself is perfect for thinking.
(This situation doesn’t seem to be a personal issue, so I won’t cause any trouble if I interrupt...probably)
Lacey, who is often said to have a gorgeous appearance, has such an honest personality that people think she should be more positive.
Because of my personality, it is difficult to express my opinions even if I have any opinions. Even if I make up my mind, I will hesitate before implementing it.
It may be a little strange for me to say this, but it is really rare for Les to work so hard to solve problems like this.
On the other hand, this is also a big problem for Rice.
So Rice made up his mind and asked the question to the space next to him.
"Chunma, what happened between you and Xion?"
The half-baked question might be prevaricated by Harujian. Most importantly, Rice felt that he would also be dismissive of the question, so he deliberately chose words closer to confirmation rather than question.
"……nothing."
"Then why didn't you say hello to Theon once during today's battle?"
During this time, Hjalmar often greeted Theon during the battle.
While much of it was a rant against Theon for being arbitrary and dangerous in combat, Rhys believed it was definitely not malicious.
But not once during the battle a few hours ago.
After setting off from Yadong, even if they met Xion in the ship, there was no dialogue between Halma and Xion. Sometimes there would be signs such as Halma showing a troubled expression, but based on this fact, Rice was convinced that the two What happened in between.
"Not only me, but Lina also noticed it and cared about it... As a partner in the army, can you let me listen?"
"If you don't want to anyway, I won't force you." He laughed at himself and said negative words unconsciously, waiting for Haruma who was standing at the end of the thin partition to answer.
For a long time, the only sound in the two-person shower room was the sound of water dripping from the shower head.
"Have you heard about the terrorists?"
"...Yeah. Although it doesn't feel real."
Although he didn't know the specific circumstances, Reese also knew that Xion had killed dozens of terrorists.
Of course, Rice didn't have any thoughts on this either.
Even so, he did not feel afraid or wary of Theon. This was purely because he did not have that real feeling for Les and the daily impression of getting along as friends had not been abandoned.
