Yes sir, I want to maintain this arrangement but since the WC is not resting on a free wall, am concerned how will the pipe be laid neatly underground and no odour issues

Good day Senior men in the house.
Please how can this WC be plumbed (P-TRAP) and channelled to the window side without and issue of odour synonymous with S- trap since the WC is not directly by window
Pls help 🙏 a novice
This has nothing to do with P-trap or U-Trap or whatever trap. WC in their very design trap odor from the soakaway. If there is water in the WC after each flush, no odor will escape. The water in the WC traps odor. P-Traps or U-Trap are for sinks not WC.

Now from the toilet design you posted, the WC is backing up an internal wall instead of an external wall. This is a bit of a plumbing challenge and compromise. You may experience issues running the soil pipe buried inside the internal walls leading to the external walls going outside. The soil pipe is big to be buried in the internal walls. We don't know the structural design of the building, but you may encounter a structural column. If you do, are you going to crack the column too? Running a soil pipe horizontally inside a wall may compromise the structural integrity of that section of the building.

SOLUTION
Option 1
Bury the soil pipe in your foundation below the German floor if a storey building or inside your decking if two floors. I'm not an advocate of this option.

Option 2
Run the soil pipe on the (floor) surface (surface conduit) and box it up with tiling.
