Chapter 234 – 234 – After The Break
Three days had passed, but the repair of Trevor's body had not yet been completed. Yvonne and Gwen are still struggling with the android's body. This ti it was Gwen's turn to solder sothing around Trevor's neck.
"I think that's enough." Trevor's voice ca from one of the tablets propped up near the wooden table where the android's body lay. Fortunately, during the attack, Trevor still had ti to transfer his data to storage in one of the chs. "You can close it now, Gwen. Then, can I ask you to help attach this tablet to my body, Yvonne?"
"OK." Yvonne plugged a cable that ran from the tablet into the socket on Trevor's chest.
Gwen covered the wound in Trevor's neck with so kind of tal patch attached using a few nuts. Then, when it was done, a chanical creaking sound could be heard from Trevor's body, and the android straightened up.
"Finally. I really miss this body." Trevor let out a sound like heaving a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, this can actually be done." Gwen also breathed a sigh of relief. "Taking care of you is very complicated, Trevor."
"And I have to learn from the very basics about the terms you said," Yvonne added.
Trevor chuckled. "Don't worry, after this, anything related to electronics will be handled by …"
The android was silent when he saw Alice watering the plants. The woman wiped her tears and resud her work.
Then, Trevor turned to look at the others. To Leva, who was beating the punching pads Miro was holding, to Kat, who was cleaning the stables, Tom, who was building the house, and Manu, who was making bricks. Lastly, to Yvonne and Gwen.
"I feel there's sothing strange about you guys….. Ah, maybe this is what people say about the gloomy atmosphere." Trevor said.
Gwen stood up. "Of course, Trevor. Stuff like that won't be easy to forget. You're still feeling the effects yourself, aren't you?"
Yes, after the massacre of the won, my colonists are no longer what they used to be. Perhaps this was a trauma that had more impact than the raid on Eric's forr colony at that ti.
I know they are doing activities with no enthusiasm at all.
"All we can do is keep moving forward." Yvonne chid in with a faint smile, but tears filled her eyes.
"I agree." Gwen shrugged. "After this, I want to make clothes to just refresh my mind. There are many materials from…" The blonde-haired woman choked. "Ah, sorry for my insensitivity, Yvonne. They all belong to your friends."
Yvonne shook her head. "No problem at all. All that stuff would be better to use than sitting on a pile… Ah, I'd like to try cooking the harvested garlic too."
The two won said goodbye to the android, who replied with a thank you. Since Trevor was now silent instead, I gave him an instruction. He then approached Leva, who was now sitting alone resting. Miro, who had been training with Her, was doing shadow boxing a bit far away.
"Hey, Trevor. Your body has been fixed, apparently." Leva said, then drank from the clay bottle
"Are you in the mood for another long trip, Leva?" Trevor asked. "We still need to bring various parts from that place. You can hone your ch control skills as you travel. Well, we don't have to go now. Maybe you still want to…."
"No, the sooner we leave, the better." Leva got up while wiping her sweat with a towel. Her eyes then looked at the forr mound of ash and bones that had been cleaned. "After everything that happened, I wanted to get away from this place for a while. Well, I'll get everything ready now, Trevor. How about it, or do you still need to rest with your wound?"
Trevor clutched the patch on his left neck. "I am an inorganic being. So, I don't need to rest like you guys. I'm ready to go any ti."
"OK, wait a second." Leva then went to the shelter to pack her things.
"Why don't you take , Trevor, my friend." Miro ca to the android while spreading his arms. "I also want to train with that ch."
"Well, I don't know why myself."
It's because of my orders. Miro's strength is greater than Leva's, so it's better for that man to be utilized for lee combat on the ground. When the second ch is ready, I'll have Kat ride it. I'll focus on the ch for ranged attacks.
"Hey, Miro." Manu cos with hands covered in clay. "Looks like we need so more clay."
Miro just scratched his head. Suck it, Miro. That's your job.

Since there was nothing important, I used the fast-forward button. It took only a few minutes. Leva and Trevor had reached their destination. The condition of the place that used to be the Acornhull tribe was getting worse, with damaged items scattered.
"As I said earlier, I'll be giving instructions regarding large items that might be of use. Then, you will take it using this ch." Trevor spoke to Leva, who was still piloting the ch. "After that, we will go down and…."
"There is soone." Leva narrowed her eyes at the cockpit screen, looking at a man sitting in the forr tribe. The woman gasped when she found out that the person she saw had a large body, lots of muscles, and pale skin. "Ivan?"
"Is that your friend?" Trevor asked. "It's bizarre for him to be sitting in a location like this."
Leva stopped her ch then descended using the elevator. Before the elevator reached the ground, the red-haired woman had already jumped up and ran to Miro's little brother.
"Ivan!" Leva called out, then stopped in front of Ivan.
The pale-skinned man didn't respond and just looked down in silence. His appearance is quite different from before. There are quite a number of tattoos with patterns I don't understand on the face, arms, and bare upper body. The pants he's wearing now are also very different from anything I've seen on this planet, even when compared to the crashlanded. Ivan wears shiny black trousers with a slight pattern similar to the tattoos on his body.
"What exactly happened here?" Ivan hissed.
"Well…" Leva swallowed. "You might not believe this, but there's a group of tal giants attacking this place…. Yes, those giants are similar to what I ride, but mine is different in that I can control…. Anyway, it doesn't matter now. How are you? What really happened to you?"
"I'm fine, and that's all I can say." Ivan rose to his feet, looking at Leva with a sad expression. "Is my family dead too?"
"I'm sorry…." Leva's lips began to tremble. "All that's left is Miro alone…. Hey, how about you co with and et your brother again? He is also very devastated by the destruction of his tribe. Maybe as siblings, you can support each other through these difficult tis."
Ivan shook his head. "Even if I wanted to, I couldn't, Leva. I have a lifelong agreent with the one Entity that rules this planet. I only have a mont's pass to this place."
"One Entity that rules this planet? What do you an?" Leva frowned.
It must be H. There's no mistaking it.
"That's all I can say." Ivan took a deep breath. "I don't have much ti soon. I have to return to my master."
One drop of Leva's tears flowed. "How about you just run away? You don't have to follow anyone anymore. You can be free."
"It's not that easy, Leva. Even though my heart may want to, my body won't be able to do it."
"You look very sad, Ivan." Leva's eyes welled up. She then hugged her forr opponent in the final match that ti. "If I knew you were like this, I'd rather just die. You can live happily ever after."
"Even if I don't make sacrifices, maybe I will die in this place when the disaster happens." Ivan gently pushed the woman he once loved to leave his body. This ti, a faint smile graced Miro's little brother's face. "I don't regret any of this, Leva. I can't describe it in words when I can see you again fine."
Leva's tears flowed more profusely. Her mouth opened, but she couldn't get a single word out.
"Ah, I have to go now." Ivan slightly widened his smile, then kissed Leva's forehead. The unexpected movent made Leva flinch and slightly widen her eyes. "Take care. Greetings to Miro."
Ivan gently stroked Leva's red hair, then turned and walked away from the woman.
"I will save you, Ivan!" Leva shouted. "Just you wait! I will find a way!"
The pale-skinned man stopped in his tracks. "Please, don't. Let go through all of this."
And suddenly, Ivan's figure just disappeared, leaving Leva confused and looking here and there.
Trevor ca up to the red-haired woman. "I've recorded everything, Leva. Maybe you'll want to show it to Miro later."
Instead of answering, Leva covered her face, knelt down, and continued to shed tears.. Trevor was silent at first but then patted his colony mate.
