Can he convince Serizawa the same is possible for him, or will their standoff end only in destruction?

The United Kingdom abandoned the Dragon Corpse mountain range and, after blowing up their entrance to a tunnel leading across the mountain’s base, retreated to the foot of the mountain. He was quite robust, with wide shoulders and a chiseled chest, but by contrast, he had quite the baby face, and his crimson eyes were constantly downcast.

The Republic of San Magnolia has long been under attack from the neighboring Giadian Empire’s army of unmanned drones known as the Legion. The outer-province citizens had their lands become the new front lines overnight and were progressively being evacuated into more inner cities. The area between the Federacy, the United Kingdom, and the Alliance was dotted with countless red blips signifying hostiles—the Legion—which filled up areas that had been occupied by existing roads just a few days ago. Yet even with humanity on the brink of extinction, they find a country that hasn’t changed-one that cannot change.

According to the AN at the end, Asato’s old editors quit, and I think the change is really felt here. This time Miel asks if Theo is okay, since the number of people with the long funny names are increasing. On the other hand, within the Federation territory, dissatisfaction erupted not only against the Republic, but also against the upper echelons of the Federal government and Eighty Six. The lesson that Shin was meant to learn about not being able to save everyone was so poorly executed it was utterly pointless.

So for the time being, the Strike Package as a whole will be taken off operational activity for a while.

Unable to endure the deterioration of the war situation, some of the defecting troops believe that the situation will be revived, and finally try to cling to the forbidden move. And because of that policy—and thanks to the army and government sticking to that policy for so long, the people in the city seem to believe the news and are trying to stay composed. They drank from teacups adorned with lovely southern colors, meant to contrast the yew flowers brought from afar.As Shin ruminates on what it means to be a leader, Lena thinks of the homeland now lost to her forever. They were launched from the surface at high velocities approaching eight thousand meters per second and altitudes between several hundreds to several thousands of kilometers. The combat machines were coldhearted and emotionless—they would even cast aside their own commander units to wipe out their enemies. The same held true for nuclear weaponry, which was essential to ballistic missiles due to their low accuracy. Theo placed a paper cup full of coffee by Yuuto’s left hand, which had healed, and took a seat in one of the lounge’s chairs.

For starters, the Legion were developed to fill the roles of rank-and-file soldiers and up to low-ranking officers at best. A nearby nurse glanced at him when he was picking up the two cups of coffee, but upon seeing him use a tray to carry them over, she didn’t say anything. To gain confidential information, humankind would need to either crack the heavy encryption on their transmissions or target bases holding important information. Lena says that if anything, he should fawn on her more, like when he was having a Lena shortage before.Names, characters, places, and incidents are the product of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. A part of Shin hoped that wouldn’t have been the case, but another part of him vaguely felt that Rei would’ve been even nosier about his love life because he was his big brother.
