Galaxy and Promise

- Take it easy.

In the final analysis, Terrence is not a reassuring existence.

Andre looked at Terence, with countless emotions surging in his throat, but he couldn't say a word in the end.

He rarely felt a little frustrated.

It is true that he knew that this was the best choice, but he did not want Terrence to go.

It might sound pretentious, but he really didn't want Terence to tear apart the dusty past again—even if the other party didn't care, but Andre didn't like that kind of "not caring".

But Terrence has always been like this, he was not even willing to stay in the central chamber for a while, and left straight away after exchanging a few words with the officers he knew.

Andre stared blankly at him walking out the door, and finally heaved a heavy sigh.

"To be honest, I don't like him at all—" Young Master Lestin muttered unwillingly, "But he is really much better than me."

He is stronger than everyone.thought Andre.

Terence didn't go back to the military dormitory, but went directly to the main house.

He seldom came back in this season. The scattered leaves in early autumn were scattered on the stone path in the vestibule, and the trees on both sides gradually turned golden, rustling in the wind.

Terrence raised his head, the blue sky was light and cloudy, he recalled casually, that time seemed to be this season as well.

The mansion still maintains the appearance when it left last time, only the housekeeping robot is working carefully.

He was alone, hanging his coat behind the door, leaning against the wall to take off his military boots, suddenly heard a slight noise coming from inside the house, looked up and saw a ginger-yellow hair ball squeezed out from under the sofa cushion, and fell to the ground with a plop , arched his back and stretched his waist, kicked and ran to his side, circled around his feet a few times, and raised his head.

In a soft voice: "Meow."

Terrence was stunned for a moment before he remembered that this was the uninvited cat in early spring.Andre set the pet mode in the smart housekeeper for him, feeding and cleaning regularly, but he didn't expect to leave yet.

It hugged Terence's ankle affectionately, and Terence hooked it up and shook it, and found that it seemed to be a little heavy.

It seems that the cat food that Andre chose is not bad.

He suddenly became interested, followed the cat to the living room, and took out a small handful of dry food mixed with fruit, oatmeal and milk flakes from the food bowl under its kind invitation.It looks pretty good, it looks like instant instant oatmeal. Terence sniffed it, put it in his mouth and chewed it calmly, because of the fishy smell, he spit it out immediately, and went to look for the nutritional supplements to rinse mouth.

Nutrients of various flavors were neatly stacked in the freezer, and some healthy fruit and vegetables with similar packaging colors were mixed with private goods. Terence looked at it for a while and couldn't help laughing out loud.

He often felt that Andre always treated him like a worried old father—or so he described it, after all, he had never really seen what a father was like.Worrying about his basic necessities of life, living expenses, and mental health occasionally makes him feel like a precious and fragile thing.

He is not so fragile, let alone need such care——

But not annoying either.

Terrence ate a citrus-flavored nutrition bar, picked out another one with hazelnut chocolate flavor, unpacked it, put it in his mouth, and walked slowly up to the second floor.

Even when he came back, he usually only liked to move around on the first floor and the courtyard, but due to the care of the housekeeping robot, the rest of the mansion was still tidy and clean, as if people had always lived there.

The corridor is covered with thick carpets, and there is almost no sound when you step on them, and the tapestries on the walls are still in a quiet color.As if time was reversed, the elder brother would still come out of the study and tell him not to play around at the door.

--illusion.

Terrence pushed open the door of the study indifferently. He knew very well that he was the only one left in the huge mansion. He looked down at the furball and the cat following his feet.

This is not actually the Terrence mansion that used to be.

The former main house was destroyed several times and finally burned to the ground.When he returned to the empire again, there was a desolate ruin in front of him.Standing at the collapsed gate, Andre said don't worry about it, and leave everything to him.

At that time, he had just resumed his post, and after staying in Tino for only half a month, he was hastily dispatched to an outer galaxy to perform defense. When he returned the next year, he saw the newly renovated main house.Even the fountain in the vestibule was the same as in his memory, and it was not a feeling of emotion, but it was only at that time that he realized that the time before the age of 12 had not just sunk into the quagmire with the ups and downs. every day.

He and Andre had known each other since they were young, had been classmates and colleagues, and then went their separate ways.Reunited after many years, only to realize that this guy has become an adult enough to be independent since no one knows when.

Sometimes, when he passed the office and saw the major general working through the window, he would even inadvertently recall his elder brother.

Even he couldn't have done better.Terence thought, how did Andre piece together the former Terence mansion from the fragmented archives?

Terence opened the drawer, took out a limited-edition pen released in the Blood Queen era, and sat at the desk.

An arc-shaped holographic projection rose from the desktop, and the brilliant star map slowly unfolded.Terrence lowered his eyes, and the information he had just obtained flowed through his mind one by one.

Route, static coordinates, and movement deduction:

He has always been good at this. As long as the destination exists in the sky, those deliberately concealed and intricate trajectories will definitely not be able to confuse him.After peeling off the cocoon, all the information will fall on the final coordinate point.

Terrence was a little taken aback for a moment.

He stared at the bright spot hanging in the star map in a daze for a while, put his fingers against his forehead, and let out a deep low smile.

Why he was called back to Tino, Andre's flickering concealment and deliberately concealed information were all explained.

Ha, this is really, what kind of joke——

At this time, the terminal suddenly buzzed and vibrated, and the cat gently pushed him with its paws, calling out: "Meow."

Terence picked up the terminal, saw the familiar name, he couldn't help but shook his head and chuckled twice, and connected the communication.

"Are you some stupid overprotective parent—" Terrence said.

Andre didn't smile.

The young major general looked cold and serious: "You know."

"Yes, I know. Andre, you can't hide it from me. I have always been a perfect score in intelligence—" Terrence smiled happily, and approached the communication projection, "What is your expression now? Is it possible? Do you think I'm going to cry?"

Bate star.

More than 90.00% of its area is covered by oceans. It has a year-round warm climate and charming palm tree beaches. It was once the most beautiful sapphire in the Aquarius galaxy.

Earlier, it was the genus of the Terence family.

Terrence seldom laughed like this, as if he heard some big joke, his rosy eyes seemed to be full of water.

"Terence," said Andre, "Terence—"

He said, "You don't have to, Terrence, it doesn't matter."

However, Terrence raised his head upon hearing this.

There is still a smile in his eyes, but his expression has gradually become sharper, and his voice is soft and peaceful: "Those people in the military department are not easy to fool, what will you pay for it?"

Andre pursed his lips, still with a straight face: "You don't need to worry about this—"

But Terrence shook his head: "Are you underestimating me, Andre?"

He stood up, turned his back to the communication camera, walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, and opened the heavy red velvet curtains.The early autumn sunlight fell into the room, and through the window, one could just see the garden of the mansion.Flower gardens carefully maintained by gardener robots, sparkling artificial lakes, and exquisite pavilions on the lake.If someone is resting and playing in the garden, standing here can take in everything.

There is an electronic photo frame in front of the window, and inside it is a photo of him receiving honors when he just graduated.The young graduates are wearing military uniforms, but their eyes are never on the camera, appearing loose and alienated.

"I'm not afraid of that." Terrence picked up the picture frame and continued, "I've destroyed enough with my own hands to care about one more—it's not some crying kid."

Andre: "Why don't you cry and show me, I'm happier!"

Terrence: "Believe it or not until you cry?"

Andre: "Please be more mature, Mr. Colonel, and say that you are not a child."

The mature colonel let out a low sneer, turned around, leaned against the window sill, put the photo frame aside, and said such a long sentence seriously: "Andre, since they want to see me, I have no reason to escape , not to mention, I won't lose, and I don't want to lose."

Andre looked at him for a while, finally sighed, and compromised: "Forget it, forget it, your character is really—"

Terrence raised his eyebrows: "What?"

Andre: "Excellent!"

Terrence looked at the major general who was talking nonsense for a moment, then suddenly lowered his head, shrugged his shoulders, and laughed muffled.

Beite star used to have the famous sea and sky color, and now it is bombarded by incendiary bombs and high-explosive bombs into a fiery red.

The palm forest was beeping in the sea of ​​flames. The fire spread from the beach to the sea. The buildings built below the sea level made continuous explosions.

But after splitting through the smoke and flames and actually breaking into the near ground, what appeared before Terence's eyes was not the "self" he imagined, and he didn't even have the enemy's defense system.The silver-white mecha spread its wings and hovered quietly on the flaming sea, with the laser cannon pointing directly at itself.

——Star Silver Hurricane.

It once belonged to his eldest brother, the former major general of the Empire, Leo Terrance's car.

A message was connected to his machine: "Long time no see."

It was the voice of my elder brother that had been buried in the depths of my memory.

Terence turned a deaf ear.

He looked at the silver-white mecha on the screen. Earlier, when he and his sister went to the military headquarters to wait for their elder brother who had returned, he had seen this silver-white mecha fly across the sky, its spread wings shining in the sunlight Brighten.

At this time, without changing his face, he unfolded Violet's attack wings.

Xingyin Hurricane dodged the dense salvo, opened the distance with a setback, and responded with two crystal energy missiles with a backhand.

The voice in the comm is still babbling:

"Do you remember why your eldest brother died?"

"Have you forgotten the blood feud in the past?"

"Do you want to destroy your brother's last relic?"

"Do you remember who you are—"

"Geraint Terrance—"

Amid the familiar voice of calling, Terence and the Silver Star Hurricane had several hand-to-hand combats, and the trajectory of the silver-white mech was exactly the same as the information about the eldest brother in the file.

but--

but.

Terrence pulled out the light energy blade and swooped down——

"You got the wrong person."

At absolute high speed, the energy-gathering particle knife directly cut through the protective cover, splitting the brother's mech in two.

The noise in the communication stopped abruptly, and Terence squinted his eyes amidst the violent explosion—the other party's cab was empty.

At the same time, under the sea level, countless ferocious muzzles instantly gathered ominous rays of light underwater.

——From the very beginning, this was a trap.

Terrence skillfully raised the height of the mech, even he didn't realize it, and there was a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.

Whether it's a trap or an elder brother.

Past and future, faith or hatred.

He never cared.

He was never alone.

Never back down, never fear.

The author has something to say:

It will be over in two chapters hehehehe——
