Gundam SEED’s Final Destination

"Why are you doing this?"

On the bridge of the submersible Archangel, Cagalli changed out of her dress and put on the uniform of the Orb military.

Aslan came to steal the marriage, Cagalli was really happy in her heart.

But happy to be happy, the consequences of doing so are very serious.

The MS belonging to ZAFT abducted the Orb representative during his wedding ceremony——

In this case, either he would go back to clarify the misunderstanding, or Orb would completely defect to the Atlantic Federation and formally declare war on Plant.

Although the current Orb already belongs to the Atlantic Federation Alliance, the current Orb still pursues neutrality and does not actively participate in the attack on the plant.

Once this incident came out, it was impossible for Orb to remain silent.

Facing Cagalli's question, Aslan opened his mouth but could not say any words.

Why do you do this——

Aslan didn't know why he did this.

Because from beginning to end... at least this one was not the one he chose to open.

So Aslan didn't know how to answer the original reason for snatching the marriage.

As for the follow-up reason——

"Send me back, this won't work."

Cagalli looked at Aslan's face and originally wanted to say something, but recalling the experience just now and those blaming words, Cagalli couldn't say anything.

"You really want to marry that Yona Seran?"

When Aslan heard that Cagalli still wanted to go back, the pent-up anger in his heart surged again.

"I don't!"

Listening to Aslan's question, Cagalli's face instantly turned pale, and she quickly retorted: "I never thought about marrying him!"

"Then why did you agree to this engagement!"

Aslan also risked his life, perhaps because Noel gave him a start, or perhaps because Cagalli's choice touched his bottom line. At this moment, Aslan no longer had the peace of the past.

"I-what can I do? If I don't agree, Orb-"

"Can you please wake up! It is indeed noble to sacrifice yourself to fulfill the greater self, but do you really think this is right? Can the current Orb be changed by your self-sacrifice?"

Aslan continued to question loudly: "If your sacrifice can exchange for Orb's neutrality and the Atlantic Federation's retreat, I-"

"But since you have signed an alliance treaty with the Atlantic Federation, it means that Orb has been involved in the war. In this case, tell me what can you get in exchange for your sacrifice?"

"But what can I do? What can I do, I-"

"What can you do? What can you do? Why do you still don't understand? You are Orb's representative, so you have the responsibility to work hard for Orb, but your responsibility is not to sacrifice yourself for Orb's future, but As a representative of Orb, I will lead Orb into the future!"

"If you continue to have such naive thoughts, then Orb will really be hopeless."

"Did Mr. Uzumi's self-sacrifice allow you to sacrifice yourself for Orb? Did the idea he gave you make you act like this!?"

Aslan's words hit Cagalli's heart like a heavy hammer.

"I know, I know everything you said, but what can I do? I don't know what to do!"

Cagalli retorted to Aslan with tears in her eyes.

Seeing this, Lacus stepped forward helplessly and hugged Cagalli in her arms. This was the first time Lacus saw Aslan lose his temper like this.

"you--"

"Aslan."

Just when Aslan was about to continue saying something, Lux hurriedly stopped him: "Let Cagalli calm down."

"Discover MS heat source, identify MS signal——zgmf-x56s——"

"It's Noel's body. I'll go pick him up."

After Aslan said that, he turned around and left the bridge.

He felt like he needed to calm down too.

The person I was just now was completely unlike my normal self.

Lux looked at Aslan's leaving figure and Cagalli in her arms and shook her head helplessly.

The next day.

The news that Representative Orb was robbed by an unknown ms during the wedding ceremony attracted a lot of attention.

Due to Cagalli's departure, the Orb regime is currently temporarily taken over by the Seran family, Unat Roman Seran.

Unat Roman Sailan quickly confirmed through multiple evidence collections that the MS who came to rob the bride belonged to ZAFT.

And immediately submitted a protest application to the Plant Supreme Council, demanding that the plant be returned to the Orb representative immediately, otherwise Orb will declare war on the plant.

However, in the face of protests and threats from Unat Roman Seran.

The plant side directly threw out the announcement that Orb signed to join the Atlantic Federation Alliance.

Orb······

at the same time.

The Minerva, which was being repaired at the Kapantalia base, received an order from the military headquarters.

Among them were the support transfer orders from Noel Cassia and Aslan Sala.

As for the two people going to Orb to cause a scene, the military headquarters simply ignored it.

Not to mention that Orb and Plant belong to hostile countries, coupled with their faith status, there is room for manipulation in many things.

"Hey, I really don't know what I'm thinking."

Thalia looked at the documents in her hands and the brocade box from ZAFT Military Headquarters and rubbed her temples with a headache.

"Captain, are you unhappy?"

Arthur on the side couldn't help but asked after hearing Thalia's sigh.

What the captain was holding just now should be the award document from the military department. Aren’t you happy to be a Faith?

"One ship, three faiths... I really don't know what the speaker is thinking about all day long."

To be honest, Thalia no longer knows how to command the battleship in the future.

It's okay for Aslan, after all, his character is quite stable, and Aslan shouldn't refuse any orders.

Mainly Noel... Thalia felt a headache just thinking about it.

"Actually, if you think about it from the side, three faiths are also very good. This proves that our battleship -"

"Can you have any brains?"

Listening to Arthur's answer, Thalia suddenly wondered if her deputy captain's mind was broken.

"That's all I said."

Arthur replied.

"Okay, we have no right to interfere with what the higher-ups are thinking. We just have to do our own thing."

Thalia thought for a while and simply stopped thinking about it. She couldn't influence the orders from her superiors.

"Our business?"

Arthur was stunned.

"The ZAFT Army headquarters ordered us to go to the Gibraltar base as soon as possible after repairs to support the Suez garrison there."

"To support the garrison in Suez? Do you want us to go?"

Arthur looked stunned.

Kapantalia is in Australia in the southern hemisphere, so why are they asked to go all the way to Gibraltar, the junction of Eurasia and Africa, for support?

If Gibraltar needs reinforcements, wouldn't it be faster to drop troops directly from space?

Thalia nodded to Arthur: "Now there are disputes in western Eurasia, and it has become the most chaotic place. Although the Earth Army stronghold in Suez is a threat to Gibraltar, it does not rely on us. You have to rush all the way to support us."

"That is to say... the Minerva is not a land ship. What does this order mean...?"

Arthur couldn't understand this order.

In other words, he couldn't understand most of the commands.

"No matter what it means, an order is an order. Get ready to go. You've almost finished your repairs during this period."

Thalia has given up on training her own vice-captain.

"What about Noel and Aslan? They haven't arrived yet."

Arthur couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

The order made it clear that Noel and Aslan were recruited to strengthen the Minerva's combat capabilities.

Now that neither of them are here, will anything happen if we rush there like this?

"We can only go to the Gibraltar base to wait for them first. We can't stop doing the mission just because they don't do it. Besides, both of them are people of faith and have the right to act independently."

This was the biggest headache for Thalia.

But fortunately, only two non-staff members became ftaih. If you can use it, use it. If you can't, don't be afraid.

Asuka's great display some time ago gave Thalia some confidence.
