A silver hourglass floating in space.
With the thinnest middle section as the fulcrum, the huge structure slowly rotates.
This is a new-generation space colony satellite called the Libra-rod type. It is composed of two opposing cones and three mirrors to collect sunlight.
Made of organic matter as the main material, the bottom of the rotating cone is the living area. The high-tension strings covering the outer wall are almost filled with self-repairing glass, and the brilliance reflected by these silicon particles creates a shining silver halo.
Nearly a hundred such satellites are arranged in the pitch black darkness, which looks particularly majestic.
The PLANT colony is even more prosperous under the radiance of peace.
Yes, the world is not truly at peace now.
Conflicts with adjusting to natural people still exist, but everyone is working hard.
"Why are you in the mood to call me over today? Where is Lux?"
Meena Sahak, who is wearing a white dress, has her hands folded across her chest, her long, shiny black hair is casually tied behind her head, and under a white sunhat, her cool and beautiful face is inlaid with delicate facial features.
"Lux is busy dealing with government affairs."
Noel, who was wearing plain clothes, wrapped himself so tightly that it would be almost difficult to identify him unless he was a particularly close person.
"I've wanted to ask you a long time ago, isn't it hot dressed like this?"
Mina Sahak couldn't help but frown slightly when she looked at Noel's clothes.
"You think I want to dress like this, and it's not because of..."
"Wow, I watched Captain Noel's battle perspective again today. It's really strong."
"Aren't you talking nonsense? How can the world's number one MS combat pilot not be strong?"
"Number one in the world? Didn't you say that Kira Yamato is the number one in the world?"
"How is that possible!? Captain Noel is the strongest, right?"
"Well, let me tell you something, Mr. Kira is also very fierce. In the last battle, there was no scratch on his body."
"Captain Noel was shot? And for pilots of their level, the outcome depends entirely on close combat. Have you heard that Captain Noel lost one-on-one?"
"... Mr. Aslan?"
"...I mean now."
"Maybe not."
"That's right, in close combat, Captain Noel is invincible, who can beat him!"
"But MS is not only better than melee combat, Mr. Kira's melee combat is also not weak."
"······"
The noisy crowd passed by Noel and Mina.
"Do you know why now?"
Noel looked at the departing figure, feeling secretly happy but also a little tired.
Yes, he is famous, or he became famous a long time ago.
But since he married Lux, his reputation has become even greater.
It made him just like those kings and superstars in his previous life. Even if he wasn't surrounded when he walked on the street, he would still be watched and saluted by countless people.
There will also be various photos taken.
Of course, this is also PLANT’s intention.
After all, now is the time to stabilize PLANT's internal affairs, and the name of Noel Cassia's Red Death can be used to stabilize people's hearts.
The result is--
"Haha~"
Mina Sahak couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he heard this, and then asked: "Tell me, why did you call me out?"
"Can't I call you if nothing happens?"
Noel asked rhetorically.
Hearing this, Mina Sahak turned his head slightly and looked at Noel.
Noel looked back without showing any signs of weakness——
"I've convinced you."
Facing Noel's gaze, Mina Sahak shook his head and admitted defeat, pointing towards the pavilion not far away: "Let's go over and chat. Although PLANT has an automatic adjustment system, the weather is still a bit too hot."
"Not going there."
However, Noel directly grabbed Mina Sahak's arm and said, "Let's go over there."
"Um?"
Mina looked in the direction of Noel's finger, and a jewelry store appeared in her sight.
"Let's go."
Noel didn't say anything, but just led Mina towards the jewelry store.
Mina frowned slightly, subconsciously preparing to break away, but looking at Noel's face under his sunglasses, she couldn't get her hands off.
He could only accept his fate and was pulled by Noel towards the jewelry store.
at the same time.
Inside the PLANT Government Building.
Lux is reviewing documents from various departments.
Button~
There was a knock on the door.
"Please come in~"
boom--
As soon as Lux finished speaking, the door was pushed open directly from the outside.
"Yitzhak, you are so rude!"
Then came poetry and dissatisfied voices.
"cut."
Yitzhak didn't answer, just made a disdainful sound, and then walked in with his head held high.
"Yitzhak?"
Lux looked at Yitzhak and couldn't help but look puzzled.
"That guy Noel ran away again?"
Yitzhak looked around, and sure enough, Noel was not found.
"He has something to do today, so I asked him to go back first."
Lux smiled and said, "What do you want from him?"
"Forehead·····"
Yitzhak, who was originally the boss and my second child, suddenly hesitated after hearing this question.
"Um?"
This was the first time Lux saw Yitzhak showing such an expression.
Helpless, he had no choice but to look at Shihe aside.
However, at this time, Shihe was also a little hesitant and hesitant...
"You...this is?"
Lux was completely confused.
"Ah, forget it."
Yitzhak scratched his head and gritted his teeth and said, "What about that? I'm going to get engaged in two days. You and Noel remember to come over. Don't say I didn't notify you then."
After Yitzhak finished speaking, he turned around and left directly.
"······"
Shihe was stunned when he looked at Yizhak who turned around and left after saying that.
"·····"
In this situation, even the well-informed Lux couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Yitzhak!"
Facing Lux's gaze, Shihe suddenly became furious and roared directly towards the door.
"What?"
Yitzhak, who had just reached the door, stopped and turned to look at Shihe: "Why are you still there?"
"I····"
Shihe was completely stunned, why am I still here?
"Well, Yitzhak, you haven't told me who you are engaged to yet."
Seeing that something was wrong with Shihe's mood, Lux quickly got up to smooth things over.
And no one would leave their fiancée here after saying so.
"Who are you engaged to? Of course it's her."
Yitzhak pointed to the poems not far away and said: "Otherwise, who else can I get engaged to?"
"······"
Shihe and Lux were completely speechless.
Especially Shihe, his expressions are very wonderful.
"I just heard someone calling Yitzhak? What? Is Yitzhak causing trouble again?"
At this moment, a head with yellow hair popped out of the door. It was Diaka who was preparing to see his brother in trouble.
Mainly because Shihe's voice was too loud. When he heard that Shihe's tone was wrong, he immediately put down his work and rushed over, not for anything else but to prevent his brother from suffering!
Be brothers in your heart.
"Where did you go, kid? I've been looking for you for a long time and couldn't find you?"
Yitzhak looked at Diaka who suddenly appeared and couldn't help but question him.
"I just came over when the military department had something to do. Why did you want to see me?"
Diaka looked confused. This scene didn't look like Yitzhak was causing trouble.
"I'm getting engaged. I'm going to tell you. Remember to come over and help me in two days."
"I didn't ask...what did you say!?"
Diack looked at Yitzhak with wide eyes and disbelief.
"Why are you shouting so loudly?"
Yitzhak licked his ears and replied impatiently.
"Yitzhak, if you are sick, you can tell me and I can contact the hospital for you. I will definitely save you even if I spend my whole life!"
Diak said excitedly.
"What do you mean?"
Yitzhak's brows frowned slightly under his long white hair.
"How can you get engaged?" Diak looked gloomy.
"Why can't I get engaged?"
Yitzhak asked rhetorically.
"No, you are engaged...this, I..."
Diack felt like the whole world was persecuting him.
Obviously he was the first to find a girlfriend, but why did they end up doing this first?
"ill."
After Yizhak finished speaking, he turned to look at Shihe: "Let's go, we have something to do when we go back, and mother is already urging us."
"Ah, oh, okay."
Shihe nodded stiffly, turned towards Lacus and said, "Miss Lacus, I'll go over first."
Although Lux is the acting speaker, due to a few reasons, most people still call her Miss Lux in private.
"Go ahead, I'll bring Noel over."
Lux smiled and nodded.
"gone."
Yitzhak was not very polite to Lacus, or in other words, he never knew what politeness was, especially in front of friends.
Watching the two people leaving, Lux turned her attention to Diack, who was doubting his life: "You should be happy that Yitzhak is engaged."
"Happy? Me? Am I happy? Should I be happy?"
Diack replied a little lost.
"I spoke to Captain Malu not long ago, and I heard that Mirialia seems to be single."
Lux smiled and told the information she knew.
"Yes, really... No, what does it have to do with me that she is single?"
Diak suddenly reacted.
Does Mirialia Hau’s singleness have anything to do with me?
No, I dumped her!
"hehe."
Lux just smiled and said nothing.
"I'll leave if I have something to do at the military headquarters. Goodbye!"
Diack couldn't bear Lux's gaze. After speaking, he turned around and left without looking back.
Lacus smiled and shook her head, and continued to deal with official duties. However, thinking about Yitzhak and Shihe, Lacus could not focus on it.
There were times when she really missed her life in East Asia United.
I miss the simple warmth of hugging Noel.
"Is this why you brought me here?"
At the same time, in the cafe under PLANT street, Mina Sahak looked at the ring on her finger with a complicated mood.
"Well, I'm sorry, I can only give it to you in this way."
Noel didn't know how to express all this.
In a sense, he seems to have become a scumbag.
"Does she know you did this?"
Meena Sahak didn't have too many negative emotions about this.
I am a shadow hiding in the darkness, and I am a person who always belongs to the darkness. I have never thought of any non-substantive name from beginning to end. This result can be considered acceptable.
"I don't know either."
Noel didn't know how to answer this question for a moment.
"Um?"
Mina Sahak looked at Noel.
"I didn't tell her, but she would have guessed the answer, and I would tell her later."
Noel did not tell Lacus about this matter.
But with Lux's ability, she should be able to guess it quickly as long as there are some clues.
"Tsk, the Red Death seems to have turned into a scumbag."
Mina Sahak couldn't help laughing and teasing after hearing this.
"You know it's a little late, it's too late to regret."
"Don't deny the word scumbag?"
"It's the truth after all."
Noel pressed his nose helplessly.
The scenery of PLANT is undoubtedly beautiful.
Although the artificial landscape has lost some of the true meaning of the earth, it also has its own meticulous beauty.
The two of them traveled to many places and tasted things they rarely ate.
Unknowingly, night fell.
The glow fell, illuminating the quiet street.
Meena Sahak left. In her words, she preferred the room where she could always gaze at the vastness and depth.
Noel knew that room. He and Mina lived in that room for a while. It was indeed beautiful and suited her aura.
Recalling the joy that could not be hidden on Mina Sahak's cold face, Noel was in a calm mood as he walked back alone.
Meena Sahak still couldn't escape the nature of a girl. This seemed to be an incredible discovery.
"But I really want to go and take a look at that room."
Noel thought of something unconsciously.
Maybe I should take the time to go over and take a look.
Phew~
The quiet evening breeze swept through the streets at night.
Subconsciously, feeling the gaze, Noel raised his head and looked towards the road ahead.
There, the light and soft pink girl stood quietly.
The breeze swept her long pink hair swaying, and she had a happy smile on her face. The white dress on her body shone beautifully in the night. No matter how many times I saw her, she was still the same girl who seemed to have walked out of a dream. Dreamy and beautiful. (End of chapter)
