The sudden self-destruction interrupted the continuation of the war.
"Genesis····"
"exploded····"
"Did we lose?"
"······"
The soldiers belonging to the plant stared blankly at the wreckage of Genesis.
Yitzhak's eyes flashed and he bit his lip tightly, blood flowing down the corner of his mouth without realizing it.
He didn't know how he should feel when facing this sudden end, happy? sad? Or angry?
Maybe both——
Diaka's eyes were floating, and his mood was complicated and unspeakable.
He didn't feel happy that he had prevented the war, and of course, he didn't feel any sadness.
Just staring blankly at the wreckage of Genesis and the battleships that began to accommodate soldiers, he didn't know whether his choice was right or wrong.
But at least I tried hard to choose and fought for it——
"Sir Mattis, we are now——"
Inside the Gadi Lu, the captain recovered from the shock and looked at the woman behind him.
The explosion of Genesis exceeded everyone's expectations.
"Let them come back, it's time for us to exit."
Mattis glanced at the increasingly distant signal on the radar and replied slowly.
Although a little helpless, they really don't have to stay here at this time.
Based on her understanding of the guys from the Earth Alliance, the next step is to negotiate the interests of both parties. As for why not destroy the plant in one go?
Without it, human nature is like this——
It's just a pity that the Covenant Gundam has nothing to do with me after all.
From the first Earth Orbital Ambush until now, our side has not only never captured the Covenant, but has even lost troops in it.
But when she looked at the hangar monitor, she felt a little better. At least she had not gained nothing in this war.
[Notify the entire ZAFT army in the space domain, as well as the Earth army——]
There is no distinction between friend and foe. In this dilapidated world, people can't help but raise their heads and listen to this passage quietly.
[——Now, Plant is preparing to discuss the armistice issue with the Earth Army and Plant Council members...]
Some of the listeners were confused by this statement.
"Eh?"
"it's over?"
"Is it really over?"
"······"
"No! It's not over yet!"
"The war is not over!"
"Kill them!"
"Chancellor Sarah!"
"For a blue and pure world!"
"·····"
Some people also roared with grief and anger at these irresponsible words.
[...In addition, the Plant Provisional Supreme Council will request the Earth Army to immediately stop all combat actions in the current space...]
[Plant and the Earth Army will stop fighting immediately! End this sad war! 】
Hearing these words, the crew members on the three-ship alliance suddenly burst into cheers.
After seeing them hugging and high-fiving each other excitedly, Andrew looked out the window at the stars with a smile on his face.
--it's over……
The moon base is destroyed, so the Earth Alliance should probably agree to this request.
Perhaps the two sides will sign an armistice agreement to end this long war.
But they all know that this end does not represent the real end, and the differences between natural persons and adjusters cannot be eliminated.
Before the two are fully integrated, there will still be many disputes between natural people and adjusters.
The so-called complete integration may not be possible until the end of the world.
But - at least now, at least for now this war is over...
Even if it’s just a short break - Gu Er
Floating among the wreckage, the Crimson Strike Gundam has switched to inactive mode.
The cockpit opened, and a figure in a red driving suit looked out. It was Aslan.
After setting the self-destruction device of the Justice Gundam, he jumped into the cockpit of the Crimson Strike Gundam and escaped from Genesis with Cagalli.
Looking at the space with countless floating debris, Aslan's eyes were gloomy.
Genesis was not fired.
Humanity was finally stopped before it made a decisive mistake.
But everywhere you look, there are already traces of destruction——
Too many battleships and mobile suits were turned into useless iron blocks, floating in the space like ghosts. I don’t know how many of them were destroyed by my own hands.
How many lives were lost in just this one day——
How many innocent lives have died because of their own fathers——
If I could have stopped him back then, if I--
A heavy sense of guilt poured into his heart like a tide, making his heart palpitate. In a trance, Aslan's mind echoed the calls of his compatriots when he entered the Genesis of Creation——
perhaps--
"Aslan..."
Just when Aslan's eyes were wandering and at a loss, a soft palm touched Aslan's body.
Cagalli leaned forward and looked up at Aslan's cheek.
Her expression was sad, and her golden eyes were filled with tears.
Perhaps his repressed heart was being pulled. Suddenly, Aslan's tears burst out like a dam, and Aslan hugged Cagalli tightly.
Maybe killing him is the only way to stop him.
I really want to get to know each other while he is alive, and I hope he smiles at me, at least once.
But now, all this has become a vain hope.
We have lost too much, and these wounds may never be healed——
"it's over?"
Am I falling, or floating?
The deep starry sky extends in all directions, and the stars are so beautiful that you dare not look directly at them, filling the world.
Turning his eyes, he saw only broken mobile suits and battleship fragments, and in the distance were a group of plants shining like silver hourglasses.
Noel was lying in the covenant cockpit with the red light flashing, his eyes wandering as he looked at the signal flares that lit up in the distance, representing retreat——
He didn't know how to face this result——
Are you happy? You should be happy. The war is over and death has stopped. As a person with conscience, you should really be happy.
But why don’t I feel happy at all?
anger? sad? Unwilling——
Maybe, but it seems not...
"It seems like my war has just begun—"
In a daze, Noel seemed to have thought of something, and raised his hand to grab the brightest star————
The end of the war in the old era represents the beginning of the war in the new era——
"Why did we...come to this point..."
Unlike the lucky Noel, Kira was thrown out of the cockpit in the explosion, floating dazedly in the sea of vacuum.
Why can't humans escape the emotion of hatred...?
Is it the fault of the weapon or the fault of the human mind that controls the weapon?
What do humans want, and where do they want to go?
In order to go further, towards higher goals, and make more progress...thus, those beautiful hourglasses were born; but those terrible weapons were also made, and Cruze was born...
That beautiful hazy silver hourglass, under the exposure of cosmic radiation, in this dark space near absolute zero, maintains the continuation of life for fragile but down-to-earth people.
If you say it is a sin, Kira cannot agree with it.
Yet those same human hands, on the other hand, seek the power to destroy the world.
"Which side is right? Which path should I choose to avoid making mistakes..."
He didn't know that in the end, Kira still couldn't get the answer.
Just like a child, keep asking.
Why……? Where to……? How to do……?
But for some reason, Kira didn’t feel sad or hesitant because she couldn’t find the answer——
Perhaps constant self-questioning is the symbol of living and the only answer to the meaning of human existence...
