Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1523 It's mine now!

"Heh, this guy Yang Hui." Lelouch laughed and shook his head after knowing what Yang Hui had done. Sure enough, he was still the Yang Hui he knew, a naughty old boy who was hundreds of years old. However, as for Yang Hui's actions, Lelouch only wanted to say... well done!
First, the little princess’ encouragement and blessings greatly boosted the morale of all employees.

Second, he was also very annoyed with a certain wild boar.

Although Lelouch usually appears to be either tsundere or falsely elegant and gentle, he is actually a very sentimental person, and... an extreme sister-con. His relationship with Minerva Zabi is not as close as Yang Hui's, but he also likes and takes care of this cute little girl Minerva Zabi very much. Oh, by the way, there is also Yukino, the first and currently the only child born in the fortress.

If it was just Minerva Zabi, he was already very unhappy with Banagher Links. If it was Nunnally... even if Yang Hui came, he couldn't guarantee that he could hold Lelouch back.

"Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things." Shaking his head, Lelouch refocused his attention on the battle map in front of him.

Zilkustan had suffered too many joint attacks from the Hell Legion and the Questioner, so its deployment could be said to be quite complete. However, Lelouch was still worried and kept checking for omissions to avoid any mistakes.

Although Rebil and the Imperial Society will serve as the supreme commanders of the final battle, the battle zone they are mainly responsible for is the universe. The battle on the ground is still commanded by Lelouch. In addition, the [Infinite Demon] and the gate to the C world preserved by Zilkustan are too important. The loss of any one of them may lead to defeat. Lelouch dare not be careless.

"Brother, take a break."

At this time, Nanali came in pushing a dining cart and placed the prepared black tea and pastries on an empty table nearby.

"Wait a moment, I'll check again." Lelouch responded to Nunnally with a smile and continued looking at the battle map.

"Stop reading it, Lelouch. How many times have you read it over and over again? You still can't find any problems, right?" Euphemia, who was with Nunnally, didn't care about anything and pulled Lelouch to sit down at the empty table. She poured tea into a cup for him and pushed it in front of him. "Drink it and take a rest."

"Yuffy..."

Of course, Euphemia is not such a willful person, but she knows very well that Lelouch is just suffering from anxiety disorder. The direction arranged by Lelouch is already the most perfect under the current circumstances, and there is nothing wrong with it. That's why she dared to interrupt Lelouch's thinking and force him to relax.

As for the little conflict between them, it had been resolved long ago.

"Really? It's obviously you who worry too much. You stare at the battle map every day, but you don't see any areas that need improvement." Yufei also poured herself and Nanali a cup of black tea and sat down together to enjoy a relaxing afternoon tea.

"I have to not worry about it." Lelouch shook his head and sighed. In the past, he always liked to treat others as chess pieces. The chess pieces only needed to be placed in the most suitable positions and act according to his thoughts. As for sacrifice, it was not something he needed to consider. Any small sacrifice in exchange for the ultimate victory was worth it.

Moreover, Lelouch had never commanded a large army before. After changing his mindset, abandoning the idea of ​​chess pieces, and truly treating others as companions, Lelouch realized how heavy this responsibility was.

Just as Yang Hui said, war will definitely be accompanied by sacrifices, but everyone is raised by his own parents and his life is placed in his hands, so even if the chance of survival is slim, he must fight for it.

"Don't worry. Isn't Emperor Yang Hui in Zilkustan? And Lord Graham, Empress Yulin and the others, there's no need to worry." Nanali said.

"That's why I can't slack off." Lelouch sighed. He was not working hard to compete with Yang Hui, or to prevent Yang Hui from looking down on him, but he didn't want to develop a habit of relying too much on a very small number of powerful forces. There have never been heroes in war, and war cannot be won by relying on a very small number of heroes.

Although he didn't think Yang Hui would lose, nor did he want Yang Hui to lose, the fact was that if the war relied too much on the existence of heroes, once the heroes got into trouble, the entire war would collapse instantly. "I asked my brother, and he said that the current arrangements are very complete, and the rest can only be dealt with as they come." Euphemia took a sip of tea and said to Lelouch.

"Tsk, mind your own business..."

"Hehehe."

Seeing that Lelouch was being arrogant again, Nunnally and Euphemia covered their mouths and chuckled. Lelouch was just so arrogant. He obviously admired and worshipped Yang Hui the most, but he would never admit it.

"By the way, Queen Sister Shirley and Queen Sister Lacus arrived in Zilkustan yesterday, and they are setting up the stage today." Nunnally said, and told Lelouch the location of the stage.

"Hmm... As expected of them." Lelouch glanced at the position of the stage and nodded with satisfaction. It was the most central position in the designated battle zone, which could radiate to all friendly forces in the battle zone. "Any news from Lanhua?"

"Yes, Miss Lanhua has arrived in the universe and reunited with General Victor's fleet. She is on her way to Promise, escorted by the Skeleton Squad and the Pixie Squad. She is expected to arrive at 0900 this afternoon." Nanali continued to report.

"Well, I see."

Although the singer's singing can be effective through the long-distance communication channel, the long-distance communication channel is not omnipotent. In case of interference and obstruction, concentrating all the singers in one place will cause the people on another battlefield to be unable to enjoy the assistance of the singing, so the three singers must be separated. There must be at least one singer on Earth and in the universe.

"Oh? You guys can. You didn't even invite me for afternoon tea. Don't you love me anymore?" The door of the room opened again. Yang Hui came with You Lin. As soon as they met, he couldn't control his mouth and teased her.

"There are only four cups, there's none for you." Lelouch rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

"That's okay." Yang Hui grinned, walked up to Lelouch, snatched the teacup from his hand, and drank it in one gulp, "Look, isn't it here?"

"Yang Hui! That's mine!"

"It's mine now!"

"Hehehe."

Yulin sat down next to Nunnally and watched the two brothers playing together with Euphemia.

"Okay, little brat, sit down." Yang Hui pushed Lelouch back down and sat next to him, "Where is the seat you gave me?"

"No, we just adapt to the situation and go wherever we are needed." Lelouch glanced at Yang Hui and said, "Not only you, but also Graham, Kira, Athrun, the Empress's sister-in-law... You are all the same. You don't even need to take action in the early stages of the battle."

"I see." Yang Hui shrugged. This arrangement was the best and what he was most accustomed to. If the strongest trump card's power rashly joined the normal direction, it would easily cause chaos and lead to disconnection of conventional forces. Also... they had to always be on guard against the opponent's powerful individuals, such as Dr. Hell and the [Knight]. If they continued to fight on the conventional front, they would probably be dragged down and unable to stop these powerful individuals in the first place.
