Chapter 053, Mysterious Youth

Chapter 053, Mysterious Youth

    At the edge of the Cepheus Galaxy, Ling Yu piloted the Black Dragon replica to successfully execute the first space jump.

    Looking on as the familiar planet now gradually began fading away, Ling Yu finally took in a deep breath, resisting the bitterness in his eyes, he designated a strange blue planet for the Black Dragon, softly saying, "Black Dragon, go back to the base."

    Black Dragon immediately complied with a low voice, "Understood, Master."

    Today, returning to Locke Castle, Ling Yu suddenly thought back to a lot of past events.

    Such as those pure dreams he had when he was young, for instance, those neverending days of the fires of war on the front line in his youth.

    He still remembers when he said that he wanted to take the military academy exam someone once asked him, "Are you afraid of dying on the battlefield?"

   At sixteen years old he smiled and said: "Compared with straightforwardly fighting to the death on the battlefield, what's even more frightening is some kind of house arrest...... Torturing someone through that would be like a slow-acting poison right?"

    That's right, he hates house arrest even more than death. He hates being under someone's control and he hates losing his freedom.

    He lived his life underground from birth, that sort of damp, gloomily cold environment emits a strange smell in the air. For him, it's like a huge and suffocating cage. Only with great difficulty did he grow up and leave that lifeless underground city and saw the fresh and vivid world outside. He didn't expect to once again be locked up in another underground prison after so many years because of the exposure of his Omega identity.

    In those three days in the underground prison, Ling Yu had really been thinking all along......

  In the end, what did he do wrong?

    Is being an Omega on the front line attacking the enemy wrong? But you Alphas and Betas are always being defeated on the battlefield, looking on as their homes' national capitals fall one after another, isn't that so? Is it wrong to have a pair of wings and wish to soar freely in the sky? Wanting to go soaring through the sky is an eagle's primordial instinct. Why do some people insist upon breaking an eagle's wings and trapping them like a canary in a cage?

    — This is probably the so-called rule of this world.

    Just because he is an Omega, he should not do anything, he only ever needs to be responsible for reproducing and bringing up children.

    Even his most trusted Rosen after many years of being classmates and his best friend, when he learned that he was an Omega, he too immediately possessed and marked him in that secret prisoner cell, making him pregnant......

    Seeing as Rosen's actions at that time were to save him, he doesn't have any reason to blame Rosen.

   He had to admit that when in his moments of complete clarity from his state of unconsciousness, he looked at the familiar features of the man who had his naked self wrapped around his arms in an embrace. A trace of indescribable loss and sorrow suddenly welled up in Ling Yu's heart.

    He did not know what this loss was for in the end.

    Because he lost his best friend?

    Because he finally went back to being an Omega?

   Or maybe because...... He can't casually face Rosen anymore and the two can no longer return to the past?

    In the past, they could pilot their mechs and attack the enemy side by side. They could command the two legions in tandem to win victories again and again. Making use of the spare moments when they obtained a victory to lay down on a roof and drink a few glasses of liquor, the memory of carelessly chatting about the memories of their youth during school.
