Chapter 298 - Chapter 298: Felix: "Anyway, I'm Not Short-Lived"

Inside the Providence Gundam cockpit

Creuset watched as the Genesis Gundam advanced with its shield, his fingers rapidly pressing command buttons.

The Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons instantly responded to the commands, firing at the Genesis Gundam from multiple directions.

Inside the Genesis Gundam cockpit

With the aid of his abilities, Felix executed a series of operations at extreme speed.

Under his control, the Genesis Gundam dodged left and right while rolling, deflecting all incoming Beam attacks.

His finger pressed the firing trigger!

The Genesis Gundam's Beam Rifle fired.

A Beam shot straight toward the Providence Gundam.

Seeing this, Creuset pushed the retreat pedals with both feet and moved the control stick to the left with both hands.

The Providence Gundam shifted left.

While evading, the Providence Gundam fired its Beam Rifle.

With the shield held in front of its chest, the Genesis Gundam easily dodged the Beam fired by the Providence Gundam.

The Beam Rifle was placed on the rear skirt armor as the Genesis Gundam drew a Beam Saber from its waist.

Swinging the Beam Saber, a bright light traced through space.

Creuset, with a stern expression, controlled the Providence Gundam to evade while directing the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons to fire.

Faced with the Providence Gundam's evasion in front and attacks from the Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons behind,

Felix quickly made a decision under these circumstances.

The Genesis Gundam's attack frequency did not decrease; the Beam Saber continued to strike at the Providence Gundam.

Amid the assault, the Genesis Gundam made subtle movements to evade attacks coming from other directions.

While dodging, Felix kept his eyes on the Providence Gundam and used his abilities to predict its movements.

The Beam Saber first feinted to lure Creuset into evading, then swiftly changed its attack trajectory.

The speed was so fast that Creuset had no time to react.

"What!"

He exclaimed in shock! Creuset watched helplessly as the Genesis Gundam's Beam Saber severed the Beam Rifle in the Providence Gundam's hand.

The moment the Beam Rifle was cut, the Providence Gundam quickly discarded it.

The front of the Composite Weaponry Defense Shield System lit up with a Beam.

Creuset pressed a command button!

The Providence Gundam swung the Composite Weaponry Defense Shield System to slash at the Genesis Gundam's head.

Felix pressed a command button while selecting a weapon.

The Genesis Gundam raised its shield!

The Anti-Beam Shield easily blocked the incoming Beam Saber strike.

Felix's operations continued unabated!

The Genesis Gundam raised its arm holding the Beam Saber, thrusting it straight toward the Providence Gundam's chest.

Creuset, seeing the bright light on the screen, pushed the retreat pedals down hard with both feet.

The thrusters controlling the mobile suit's backward movement instantly released powerful thrust, propelling the Providence Gundam into a rapid retreat.

Barely avoiding the Beam Saber thrust, Creuset took two deep, relieved breaths.

As he caught his breath, the Genesis Gundam had already switched its weapon to the Beam Rifle.

Instead of aiming at the Providence Gundam, Felix controlled the Beam Rifle to fire at the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons.

A feint of real and illusory guided fire directly destroyed one Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapon.

Watching the Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapon explode, Creuset tightly gripped the control stick, his mind racing rapidly.

"Felix Leo Griffith, you've seen the Storage Device I gave you, haven't you?"

The voice came through the communicator into the Genesis Gundam's cockpit, eventually playing through the speakers.

Hearing Creuset's tone, Felix remained expressionless, not a single ripple of emotion appearing on his face.

He continued his attack maneuvers, the Genesis Gundam's assault frequency never dropping.

Receiving no response, Creuset's expression darkened beneath his mask.

After a long silence, he spoke again.

"As a Defective Product, don't you have anything to say?"

Hearing Creuset's voice once more, Felix broke his silence, his tone calm yet laced with sarcasm.

"Short-lived wretch, why waste your breath!"

The words "short-lived" echoed through the speakers, and Creuset's face beneath the mask twisted into a snarl as he instinctively growled.

"Short-lived wretch?"

He repeated the three words like a broken record.

The next moment, Creuset burst into maniacal laughter over the comm channel!

After his laughter subsided, his voice carried a mix of bitterness and resentment toward his cruel fate as he continued.

"Have you truly understood? Have you truly sought to know? You, who only grasp the surface, what could you possibly comprehend?At this point, Creuset vented his frustration with a sharp question!

"What right does a Defective Product like you have to judge me?!!!"

Hearing the term "Defective Product" from Creuset, Felix remained indifferent, his voice still calm as he replied.

"Oh!"

That simple, dismissive response instantly stripped all power from Creuset's words.

Seizing the opportunity, Felix destroyed another one of the Providence Gundam's Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons.

After the strike, Felix spoke almost as if amused.

"If you're willing, you could tell me about it. It might even broaden my knowledge."

As he spoke, Felix pressed the accelerator pedals firmly.

The Genesis Gundam charged toward the Providence Gundam at high speed.

Inside the Providence Gundam's cockpit

Hearing Felix's indifferent, almost entertained tone, Creuset's face beneath the mask burned with rage.

"Felix Leo Griffith!!!"

He spat out Felix's name with furious emphasis.

Felix remained as detached as ever!

"I know you know my name. No need to keep calling me like that."

His voice steady, Felix then added.

"Are you going to tell me what I don't understand or not?"

After speaking, Felix received no reply from Creuset. Unfazed, he maintained his calm demeanor, a slight smile curling his lips as he continued.

"Oh, by the way, were you referring to me when you said 'Defective Product'?"

With that, Felix pulled the trigger.

The two Sailfish Railguns at his waist fired toward the Providence Gundam.

Creuset maneuvered the Providence Gundam to evade the attack!

Then, gazing at the Genesis Gundam, his emotions steadied as he spoke.

"Who do you think I was referring to?"Hearing Creuset's pretentious response, Felix smiled faintly, mercilessly rubbing salt into Creuset's inner wounds!"

"I think you're describing yourself. After all, a short-lived creature is clearly a Defective Product!"

A handful of salt fell into Creuset's heart, stirring up waves in his recently calmed emotions.

Beneath these turbulent waves, Creuset retorted sarcastically at Felix.

"Felix, how are you any better than me!?"

Hearing this sarcastic remark, Felix maintained his optimistic attitude and continued pouring salt into Creuset's wounds.

"At least I'm not short-lived!"

After giving this response, Felix smiled and asked in return.

"By the way, aren't you about to die?"
