Not Super Robot Wars at All - Chapter 235
Ed stared blankly at the ceiling, his pupils as empty as they were out of focus. The girl who was his nominal adopted daughter not long ago was nestled beside him, her soft and slender index finger flicking feebly.
As if trying to make up for all the time lost in these years, Minerva squandered her strength unscrupulously, trying what she had seen, heard, wanted to say, and wanted to do. Even in the few short breaks, due to the lack of Eddy’s key self-defense function, she can still easily continue to give stimulation through various means.
However, after more than ten hours of high-intensity exercise, even if Minerva is young and energetic, it can’t stand it anymore. The bangs clung to her sweaty forehead messily, her rapid and greedy breathing exposed her weakness at the moment, and the muscles all over her body were sore from lack of oxygen.
With the gradual decrease of dopamine concentration in the body, Ed’s eyes finally began to recover. No matter how confused his thoughts are, he must stop Minerva’s reckless behavior right now. It doesn’t matter what he has an S2 mechanism, Minerva is a living human.
“Take a rest, Minerva, if you continue, I’m afraid it will cause permanent damage to your body.” Seeing the girl’s tired expression, Ed whispered distressedly, “Take a hot bath and eat something. , Get a good night’s sleep. I can’t run away anyway, you don’t have to hurt yourself.”
Hearing the sound, Minerva stood up with difficulty and looked at him with a complicated look in his eyes. Just when Ed was about to say something more, the girl suddenly bowed her head and blocked his mouth, biting his lips viciously, panting heavily until the smell of blood spread on the tip of her tongue.
“Don’t talk to me in that tone…” Minerva looked at him with pitying eyes, “We have done everything, and I have done everything they have done. Isn’t it that way? Has it been conveyed? Is it still impossible if it’s all like this?”
“Minerva,” Ed guiltyly avoided the girl’s sight, “Listen to me…”
“Why?” Minerva interrupted him tremblingly, “Why can’t I just love you like C.C.?”
“Enough, Minerva, save yourself some dignity.” Nanali’s voice and the sound of mechanism movements came from the direction of the entrance together, and the young woman with a rapier hanging from her waist stepped into Ed’s field of vision. , “Mr. Lingoes is not a superficial character who just forgets about it, what’s wrong with admitting his failure honestly?”
“Sister Nanali?!” Minerva rolled over and got out of bed in a panic, blocking Ed and Nanali, “Please give me some more time, I’ll be able to—”
“The time is up, I have kept the promise, and it’s your turn next.” Nanali crossed Minerva’s body and looked at the messy bed, and raised her eyebrows involuntarily, “Even the pillow you gave me. It’s soiled, how can I use it in the future? Can’t you continue to hug and sleep after washing?”
“I’m sorry, I’m a little lost.” Minerva, who knew his reason, blushed, but still looked straight at Nanali stubbornly. “But can we stop here? After the revenge succeeds, all that is left is emptiness. , I don’t want Sister Nanali to be like that.”
“I want to regret it now? Or is it okay to say that I have finished my sister’s long-cherished wish?” Nana Li squinted her eyes, resting her left hand on her waist, and tapping her scabbard lightly with her five fingers. Well, Minerva, but it’s not good to be too selfish.”
Ed suddenly heard a warning sign, but before he had time to remind him, Minerva fell softly into Nanali’s arms after hearing a “pop”.
“Little girls tend to be rebellious when they grow up. You have more experience than me, don’t you?” Nanali picked up the girl in her arms and smiled at Ed. “The ending of the revenge drama is about to begin. I will be here Waiting for you on the last stage. Mr. Lingos, we will see you or leave.”
Minerva was a “hostage”-Ed instinctively understood this as she looked at Nanaly who turned and left.
“By the way, can you come alone?” Nanali said without looking back, “After all, this is the end that belongs to us only.”
When Ed regained her freedom, Nanali had left with Minerva for more than two hours. A maid with an oriental face followed the instructions left by Nanaly into the secret room to untie him, took him to bathe and change clothes, and told him that there were guests looking for him. Following the maid into a reception room, Ed saw an unexpected person appear in front of him at a glance.
“What a coincidence.” C.C. put down the tea cup in his hand and nodded calmly to him, “I only arrived fifteen minutes ago. I didn’t expect you to be here.”
Ed sits restlessly next to C.C., his thoughts that have improved after he has finally been sorted out are instantly messed up, and even the maid in the reception room leaned back to him and left.
“Breathing suddenly became turbulent, eyes erratic, and both hands looked like I didn’t know where to put them.” C.C.’s golden pupils shone dangerously, “Did you do something sorry for me?”
Ed was stunned, what should I say now? I was forced by Minerva, confused and helpless, don’t know what to do? He knows how much C.C. such an arrogant person has sacrificed for him so far. Isn’t it too shameless to say this to her now?
“Yes, I did.” Ed raised his head and took a deep breath. “Me and Minerva–“
“Okay.” C.C. smiled and stretched out his index finger to press on his lips, “Needless to say, I know you are uncomfortable.”
“I…” Ed suddenly reacted, “You knew it would be like this a long time ago?”
“I guess it is 60 to 70%.” C.C. picked up the tea cup and took a sip. “No matter how indifferent I am, I still watched her grow up. What can I do? Kill her?”
Seeing Ed’s silence, CC sighed helplessly. Minerva’s problem could only be figured out by Ed himself: “By the way, Alice has been sent home, and Ikari checked it and said it was OK. Ann. Qi clamored to come over and was stopped by me. She finally remembered that TurnA was demolished by you and now she can’t leave the moon.”
“Thank you.” Ed rubbed his brow.
“Also, don’t let messy women call home in the future.” Watching Ed sit upright like a schoolboy who made a mistake, CC couldn’t help but raise his mouth, and even his cold voice was filled with a faint smile. He said, “This time I’ll let you go because the situation is special, and I won’t take it as an example.”
Ed suddenly felt that his eyes were a little moist for no reason, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something.
“Go, you can only solve this matter by yourself.” C.C. propped up his body and lightly tapped his lips, “I will go home and wait for you.”
…
Through the window of the cabin, you can see a huge building with a strange shape in the universe to show its existence from a distance. Five concentric circles with different radii slowly rotate around the main control room at the center of the circle, and the outermost circle is 20 kilometers in diameter. This is the wheel of angels, the greatest spectacle in human history that was transformed from the planet ELS.
Ed’s spacecraft sent a log-in request to the fleet stationed at the Angel’s Wheel, and soon a blue and white mobile suit approached. The people on the ship quickly recognized that this mobile suit was the famous Hi-ν Gundam, belonging to Colonel Amuro Ray, the deputy commander of the special forces stationed in the Angel’s Wheel.
Speaking of Hi-ν Gundam, there is a very interesting historical allusion. This unit was originally scheduled to be equipped with six wing-shaped floating guns, but before the design was finalized, Ed asked Amuro about how many floating guns you can fully use. Amuro immediately asked him how many floating guns you can install. Going up, the wing-shaped floating guns on the fuselage were added to the current twelve.
“Adrian, what happened?” Amuro’s voice sounded directly in his mind, awakening Ed from the distracting daydream, “It feels like you are… mentally unstable? I haven’t seen you like this for many years, do I need to do anything?”
“It’s only Minerva’s business, don’t worry, I can solve it.” Ed replied vaguely, “Has Nanali been here?”
“Your Majesty? It’s been here for a while.” Amuro saw that he was reluctant to say and didn’t ask too much. He wouldn’t stupidly intervene in the Lingoes family’s woman. “He said he wanted to inspect the wheel of angels. After I came, I stayed at the core and didn’t leave. She has the same authority as Commander Bright next to you, and I can’t control her.”
“That’s just right, I have something to do with her.” Ed tried to pretend to be natural, “You are busy with you, I will control it myself.”
After bidding farewell to Amuro, the spacecraft sailed into the depths of the Angel’s Wheel and finally docked in the core unit. Ed disembarked alone and walked firmly to the main control room, where Nanali and Minerva felt clearly. As he deepened, the nearby people gradually became less and less. When he reached the door of the main control room, there was no one at all, and it was conceivable that he was dispelled by Nanali.
Touching his conscience, Ed felt that he was actually sorry for Nanali. The trust Nanali had in him back then was like Minerva now has Nanali, but he wanted to kill her brother in front of Nanali. Although he would make the same choice no matter how many times he came back, the damage Nanali suffered was real.
However, even though he betrayed Nanali, she did not hesitate to bet with her own life at the critical moment, betting with meager hope, and giving him life again. In other words, if there was no nearly self-sacrifice of Nanali, now all human beings would have become LCL.
So Ed has always felt ashamed of Nanali, and his guilt has even increased day by day. So no matter how many times Nanaly said revenge, he never thought of avoiding her revenge. So until now, he is still convinced that Minerva is the method Nanali used to draw him out, and will never play any role in his and her repertoire.
So when Nanali put the irrefutable fact before his eyes, he couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Mr. Lingos, you are finally here.” In the empty main control room, Nanali and Ed are standing opposite each other, “I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
Beside her, Minerva sat weakly on the ground, leaning on the instrument with his back to barely lie down, his eyes haunting, it was obvious that he had been drugged. The girl didn’t seem to notice Ed’s appearance, and she was still whispering in her mouth: “Sister Nanali, stop, this is different from what we said…”
“Of course it’s different, because I added a drama to myself.” Nanali laughed and followed Ed’s line of sight to Minerva, “This is to ensure the authenticity of the revenge drama, so that you won’t misunderstand me and me. Minerva sings double reeds. I have been waiting for this day for nine years. How can you not be fully committed?”
“Is it necessary?” Ed glanced worriedly at the girl who was distracted. “It doesn’t matter how you hurt me, why bother to involve Minerva?”
“Hurt you? How am I willing to hurt you?” Nanali opened her eyes in surprise, “And doing so will only make people who love you sad, and that is not revenge at all. It is you that I want to see. Your sorrow, your pain, your despair, your tears, of course should hurt your cherished talent.”
Nanali’s sincere attitude was conveyed along her consciousness without any reservation, and every word of her was undoubtedly true. Ed was shocked, and the NT radar in his mind started to alarm frantically: “What do you want to do?”
“You magnanimously forgave your brother’s life back then, so I also want to give you a chance.” Nanali drew out the rapier on her waist with her left hand and lifted it forward, while staying at the Jin Karam hanging on the wall. The samurai sword here slammed, “Let’s fight, let the blood on the sword win first. If you win, I will return Minerva to you unharmed, and our story ends here. .”
“If I lose?” Ed walked to the wall under her gaze, slowly pulling out the knife from the sheath, the blade was cold.
“I put a small bomb near Minerva’s heart. If I lose, I will detonate it.” Nanali smiled and licked the corners of her lips. “Maybe luck will not die?”
“Are you crazy?!” Ed looked at her in disbelief, “Do you think I will let you go after doing this kind of thing?!”
“What you want to do later is your freedom. Even if you kill me, it doesn’t matter. I just want this revenge drama to be over.” I have already left a will, and it will never affect your plans. It is my honor to die in your hands.”
“You’re really crazy…” Eddy, who was conscious, walked back to his original position and stood still facing Nanali with a knife. Amuro is not in the induction, and he has no confidence in sending out a distress signal before Nanali hurts Minerva, so the next step can only rely on the instinct of the body to fight.
“If you say this is crazy, then count it as it is.” Nanali’s five fingers clenched the hilt, “but you didn’t make me like this?”
In an instant, a cold light flashed, and the dynamic vision could not keep up. Ed can only follow NT’s feeling with a backhand, but he bounced off the opponent’s blade by coincidence.
“I could have lived a peaceful life with my brother, could have continued to admire you silently, could have been my queen happily, could have cooperated with you to complete your great cause of saving mankind, but all the goodness lies with me. Isn’t it you who is destroying with your own hands?”
Swords collided fiercely in the air repeatedly.
“Do you know? I admire you, I spit on you, I admire you, I despise you, I look forward to you, I despise you, I trust you, I suspect you, I am close to you, I detest you, I adore you, I Hate you, I…!”
The sound of metal crashing is endless.
“Speak! Why don’t you speak? This is not like you at all. Use your most proud sophistry to make me speechless!”
With a “crumbling” sound in the brain, Ed slammed a knife that followed instinct, miraculously bypassing Nanaly’s defense and piercing her eyebrows. Nanali smiled and slammed her head towards the tip of the knife without evasive.
Seeing that she was about to poke her head across, Nanali tilted her head slightly, the blade ran against her cheek, and a bunch of beautiful hair drifted away.
Immediately after a sharp pain came, Ed lowered his head and saw that the rapier had penetrated his right shoulder. Nanali let go of the hilt and plunged into Ed’s arms with the inertia of the forward thrust, and the two foreheads slammed into each other lightly.
“I’m better than you.” She gave a childlike innocent and pure smile, and then drew back quickly, a small remote control appeared in her hand with the sword just now, “Go and say goodbye to Minerva?”
Just as Ed throws away the rapier drawn from his shoulder and rushes towards Nanali, Minerva’s body vibrates suddenly with Nanali’s movements and collapses to the ground. A cluster of blood blossoms on her chest, and the pungent rust smell permeated the entire main control room.
Ed’s mind went blank for a moment, and he rushed to Minerva and hugged her into his arms. The girl choked with difficulty, and the scarlet blood mark started from the corner of the girl’s mouth and ran across her white neck until it fell below the collarbone.
“…Uncle Ed?” Minerva seemed to have finally recovered a bit of consciousness, struggling to raise his arms, “Don’t hurt… Sister Nanali… She…”
“Don’t speak.” Ed immediately held her raised hand, “There is a doctor stationed on the Angel’s Wheel, we will immediately–“
“Don’t do this, Uncle Ed…” Minerva shook his head weakly, his upper and lower eyelids narrowed into a slit, “I… I can… love you like C.C.?”
“…” Ed’s vision was blurred, and he nodded with a choked voice.
“That’s great…” Minerva smiled and closed his eyes, his voice was barely audible, “I love…”
In the next second, self-blame, pain, regret, despair, and monstrous negative emotions slapped Nanaly’s sea of consciousness continuously. The shock wave after wave made her breathing faster, her face flushed, and two waves trembling uncontrollably. Finally, with a twitch of her body, Nanali let out a low and tactful groan, and the warm liquid dampened the cotton fabric and slowly trickled down the inner thigh.
“Mr. Lingos,” Nanali looked at the desperate man in front of her with a vague look. “The taste of revenge is really wonderful, don’t you think?”
