Machine Lion Roar

After making a fuss on the Yakin Duwei line of defense, the Eternity that finally reached the colonial satellite Mendel finally ushered in a chance to rest.

"Hmm. Martin. What's going on today? The coffee seems to be a little short."

As the Eternity completed its docking operation, Baltfield took out another cup of coffee and drank it slowly.

However, this time the coffee was not made by himself, but by the adjutant Martin.

From the taste of coffee that was different from the past, Bartfield felt the mood swings of Adjutant Martin.

"No, Captain. I just have some doubts about Freedom Gundam. If you really have that kind of power, you can easily break through Yakin Duwei's defense line by relying on Freedom Gundam alone?"

Martin remembered Liberty Gundam, which had easily solved the chase of the Eternal, and couldn't help but develop the idea that only one machine of Freedom Gundam would be able to penetrate the Yakin Duwe defense line.

"Snapped!"

Just thinking about it, Martin was slapped by Baltfield.

"Fool! What are you thinking? There is no absolutely invincible thing in this world. If one side is strong, then it will mean that the other side will be stronger. The knight kid’s freedom Gundam is powerful, but from the freedom Gundam actions Look, this kid seems to be afraid of something."

Baltfield put down the cup, his eyes gradually becoming solemn.

Although Liberty Gundam had come to cover the eternal retreat before, Baltfield, who had a keen intuition, noticed the strangeness that Liberty Gundam seemed to be on guard.

"Hey! Forget it. I'm about to see the knight kid anyway. Then, just ask him in person."

Outside, the auxiliary robotic arm is slowly fixing the Eternal to the berth in the port.

On the side of the Eternal, the Archangel and Kusanagi were quietly stopping there, receiving supplies.

"Bartfield, they are here."

In the control center, Sigel withdrew his gaze from the Eternity and looked at Lux who was standing beside him.

"Lux. This is all I can do for you. The next way is up to you. You are here to go!"

Sigel looked worried.

He knew that with the advent of the Eternal, the Klein faction was in the PLANT. Among the Supreme Council that has been controlled by Patrick Sarah, it is no longer the Klein faction who occupied half the sky of the PLANT.

Even some neutral factions will vote for Sara faction because of this.

"Yes! Father. Everything we have expected and prepared."

Lacus nodded gently, and firmly responded to his father's concerns.

"So, please don't worry, my father!"

Siegel couldn't help sighing as he looked at the daughter who had become firm in front of him, who was different from the weak look in the memory.

Hegel didn't know whether these changes were good or bad.

"Really? After arranging things here, I will return to Scandinavia. If nothing happens, I will stay there forever."

Hegel seemed to be explaining the follow-up matters, instructing Lacus to pay attention to the matters one by one, and it looked like a loving father about to send his beloved daughter on the journey.

"Right! Right!"

After exhorting it again, Sigel suddenly remembered something and smiled.

"I heard about Keliya. I didn't expect that Lacus was a new member brought back for our family when I didn't know it."

There seemed to be some doting in Siegl's smile.

This is the smile that Lacus remembers when she is alone with herself.

Obviously, Siegel did not hate Keliya's existence because she was his photocopier, but rather liked her.

"Yes. Keliya’s birth was unfortunate. So, I hope Keliya can have a warm home. So, please father, please don’t mind Keliya’s identity as a photocopier! She is just something A tragedy born out of human ambition."

Lux showed a trace of unbearable.

Lacus struggled with Keliya's existence, but finally chose to accept it.

"Yeah. I know this! Lux. Keliya is not only your sister, but also the daughter of my Hegel Klein."

While talking, Sigel added another sentence.

"Kay also mentioned to me about Keliya before. He said that photocopiers including Keliya cannot choose whether to be born in this world, but we have the choice whether to create for Keliya. The rights and obligations of a better world."

After that, Sigel let out a sigh of relief.

"Unexpectedly, after the Silverwind incident, there will be such a person beside you, Lux. That's great! I'm relieved! Lux, if you have any questions in the future, you might as well rely on Kay."

Smiling, Sigel pointedly said something that made Lux's cheeks flushed.

"It is indeed a waste to stay by your side as a guardian knight."

"My father. What are you talking about?"

————————

And somewhere in the meeting room in the harbor, the crew of the Archangel, Kusanagi, and Eternity just had a brief meeting.

Many people met for the first time in this meeting.

Moreover, there was no entanglement of fate between the Archangel and Balterfield.

Therefore, when the people on the Archangel saw Baltfield, known as the Desert Tiger, their eyes were more curious.

"Yo. Knight. We meet again!"

After Baltfield looked around, he took the lead to say hello to the person he knew best.

"Long time no see! Captain Baltfield."

Lei Mingkai nodded friendly.

"That's right! It's been a long time since the desert was left! I just didn't expect that you could cause so many things after you were there! You really deserve to be the knight guarding the princess!"

Baltfield patted Lei Mingkai on the shoulder, and his words were full of amazement at Lei Mingkai's activity.

"That's just a last resort. Alright! Captain Baltfield. This is Maru Ramias, the captain of the Archangel. This is Major Mu La Flagg. This is Lederney of Kusana. Captain Zizaka. This is..."

Lei Mingkai had no intention of continuing on the topic after the desert, so he changed the topic and introduced Bartfield to the people around him one by one.

However, when Kagali was introduced, Baltfield raised his hand to stop Lei Mingkai from speaking.

"Sorry! Knight. Please forgive my abruptness. Because, for the next thing, we have to solve some things, don't you? The little girl called the "Goddess of Dawn" by those refugees in the desert, don't you think so? "

As soon as Baltfield said this, the scene suddenly froze.

The Archangel just wanted to do something, but it was stopped by Lei Mingkai.

"Leave it to them! Captain Maru."

The Archangel, who had never landed on the desert, naturally did not know the grievances between Baltfield and Kagali and others.

Therefore, to solve these things, Kakali and Baltfield can only solve them by themselves.

Kagali looked at Baltfield’s calm expression, her face that didn’t seem to regret the killings she had caused in the desert in the past, gradually made Kagali a little bit of anger, but Then disappeared again.

"Are you trying to say that it was a war? Those are things that can't be helped? Bartfield! Desert Tiger!"

Thinking of seeing her father at the end of the Orb offensive and defensive battle, in order to resist the union of the earth and chose to bury her father with Kaguya, Kagali did feel a sense of powerlessness.

"That's a fact! If you want to come to me for revenge, I will be here anytime! Kagali Yula Asha. However, I don't want your behavior to be extremely vulnerable to our newly formed The alliance causes any trouble."

Baltfield pointed his finger at his heart.

"Now, this heart is right in front of your eyes. As long as you want!"

"You!! Bartfield! Is the man called the tiger of the desert so mean?"

Kagali was both angry and unwilling.

Yes!

Bartfield's words are now suppressing Kagali in the name of the Three Ships Alliance, forcing Kagali to make a choice.

In fact, this choice has already been made.

The reason why Kagali was angry was that Baltfield used this name to pressure her.

"Kagali?!"

Suddenly, Kagali turned around and ran out of the meeting room, leaving Zizaka with a panic expression.

"Oh. It seems that I am a villain!"

Baltfield sighed, then looked at Lei Mingkai.

"Knight. Blush can't just let Bab sing a one-man show! It's time for you to play."

"what's the situation?"

The conflict between Baltfield and Kagali broke out suddenly and ended suddenly.

Not to mention Lei Mingkai, even the others are a little confused.

"That's right! Kay. I'm afraid no one else is a good red-faced character here now."

Mu spread his hands next to him, expressing that he was helpless.

Even if this guy saw through the meaning of Balterfield's actions from the beginning.

"Ah...Kay. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Although Maliu didn't say anything, he already explained the problem.

And Zisaka next to him also reacted, but he, who was not good at words, also set his sights on Lei Mingkai.

Lei Mingkai frowned a few times, and finally accepted the reality and left the meeting room.

"Okay! Now the princess and the knight have left. The next thing, it should be the turn to resolve the matter between us commanders. Isn't it? The soldiers from the Earth Union, Orb, and even Zaft. People."

Baltfield looked around for a week, actively showing the kindness of reconciliation.

anger,

Unwilling,

Even deeper sadness,

Kagali's heart was constantly filled.

Even in front of others, Kagali, who pretends to be strong, did not make others feel too much grief of "being lost".

But in fact, whenever a person was alone, Kagali could hardly control her tears.

in case···

If I can stand up more...

My father, Uzmi Nala Ashar may not be martyred.

"hateful!"

Heading all the way, Kagali, who came to the deserted viewing platform, raised her right hand and slammed it towards the thick glass porthole.

"Boo!"

Fortunately, the glass porthole was thick enough, but it shook under Kagali's angry fists.

"Although I understand your feelings very well, if you smash the glass, you might end up on the deck of the Kusanaru. Kagali."

When she heard the sudden sound, Kagali was taken aback for a moment, and then after seeing the slightly swaying glass, she later consciously retracted her right hand to her back and looked in the direction of the sound.

"Oh. Just a brave little girl."

The person here is not someone else.

It was Lei Mingkai who was "pushed out" by Baltfield, Mario, Mu, and Zisaka.

Just now, Kagali raised his fist angrily and hit the glass. Lei Mingkai saw it and was shocked.

"Is this girl not afraid of smashing the glass and hitting her head on the deck of the Kusanagi below?"

With a light tap, Lei Mingkai floated to Kagali's side.

"Stretch your hand out!"

"You...what do you want to do? Do you follow that bastard tiger to put pressure on me? Yes!! You also came from Zaft!"

Kagali refused to extend her right hand, but stared at Lei Mingkai fiercely.

"In the desert, I thought you could become a hero to save the desert. But I didn't expect you to be Zaft's person!! Moreover, you shot at your compatriots!!!"

Kagali's accusation was not surprising.

Perhaps, at the moment when Lei Mingkai shoots at Zaft's mobile suit, the soldier will inevitably face such censure.

"Yes. I won't argue for anything. It was just a shot to survive. And, at that time, I had to protect Lux."

Lei Mingkai glanced at Kagali's right hand behind him, then turned to look at Kusanaru outside the window.

"If at that time, I was hesitant, then not only me, but also Lux. Kagali, you should have seen the deep scenes of Mendel, the colonial satellite. At that time, I , And the situation that Lux is facing, maybe you can't imagine it."

"Photocopier?"

When Kagali remembered the horrifying sight she had seen from the depths of Mendel, the intense discomfort of the tumbling still remained in her stomach.

"Yes. It's all just for survival."

"But... the people in the desert also want to survive, so..."

"People on PLANT also want to survive, don't they? The earth has jointly blocked the food, and the resource PLANT not only depends on its own efforts to expand the living space, but also has to establish a base on the earth. No matter what the war is. In name, righteousness, and in the final analysis, they are all just for survival."

Lei Mingkai paused, then said:

"Of course. Before the outbreak of the war, the Earth Alliance that unilaterally oppressed PLANT would not do all kinds of behaviors for survival. More, it is the hidden behind the Earth Alliance who wants to pass this war. Obtain the benefits they want. And this behind the scenes is the organization called Blue Cosmos. This is the culprit that led to the outbreak of this war."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Mingkai noticed that Kagali had become somewhat probing.

"What? Kagali."

Kagali sighed suddenly.

"Nothing. It's just that I just found out that a certain guy won't comfort people. Forget it! According to you, are we involved in this war triggered by the blue cosmos, just struggling pawns?"

Then, Kagali stretched out her right hand and raised it, allowing Lei Mingkai to see the red fist.

"But I didn't break the glass!"
