The Chapter get Retranslated

In the villa living room.

The beautiful Lacus was elegantly sipping black tea when she hurriedly put down her teacup upon hearing that Mikazuki was going to Heliopolis.

"Why are you going to Heliopolis?"

"Ah, I want to see something."

"What?"

"Hmm... MS."

Mikazuki thought long and hard before finally speaking the term "MS." There was nothing for it; he couldn't lie.

"MS? Is there an MS in Heliopolis that interests you? And where did you get that information?"

"Orga told me."

If Orga had his earpiece on then and heard Mikazuki and Lacus's conversation, he would definitely start cursing.

Lacus looked at Mikazuki's indifferent face, a helpless smile playing at the corners of her lips. After just a few days of interaction, she had pretty much figured out the boy's personality.

Illiterate, unable to read or write beyond his own name and simple letters; outwardly cold, taciturn, and unconstrained by trifles.

He didn't consider his own experiences tragic and disliked receiving sympathy; he completely trusted the man named Orga; and he harbored extremely deep feelings for his family, meaning Tekkadan.

This was her understanding of the boy before her these past few days, but she was certain it wasn't the whole picture. There were still aspects of Mikazuki that awaited her discovery.

"Alright, I can help you go to Heliopolis. Do you have any other requests?"

"Um, can you help me bring Barbatos along?"

He really did ask directly. Everything Orga and Mikazuki had said was for naught.

Lacus's brow furrowed slightly.

"This..."

Seeing her hesitation, Mikazuki thought he had put Lacus in a difficult position and said, "If it's troublesome, never mind. It's okay."

"No, I was just thinking if we have anyone there. Wait a moment, I'll go ask Hilda."

Saying this, she got up and went outside to find Hilda. A short while later, Lacus returned with Hilda.

"What's wrong? Boy, I heard from the young lady that you want to go to Heliopolis?"

"Mm."

"I see, so you got intelligence on the Earth Alliance's G-Series mobile suits?"

Mikazuki paused, surprised. G-Series?

"Do you know Gundam?"

Lacus also remembered the G-Series mobile suits Hilda had mentioned the moment Mikazuki rescued her.

Hilda smiled. "Indeed, Orga told you, didn't he? He's quite capable, to be able to hack into the Earth Alliance's database. We in ZAFT spent a lot of effort to get that information."

"So..."

Mikazuki's current concern was whether Barbatos could accompany him to Heliopolis.

Hilda raised her hand and patted Mikazuki's head. "Yes, we have people in Heliopolis. Transporting you and Barbatos there won't be a problem at all."

Mikazuki finally smiled. "Thank you."

"But boy, you need to be careful. According to our intelligence, Rau Le Creuset's Creuset Team from our ZAFT forces will be operating near Heliopolis soon, and their target seems to be those five new Earth Alliance mobile suits."

Although Hilda warned Mikazuki, whether he actually paid attention was unknown. As long as others didn't provoke him, he couldn't care less about Creuset Team.

Of course, if Orga told him to meddle in this affair, he might get involved.

After the two finished discussing, Lacus, who had shed her noble and elegant demeanor, cutely pouted.

She was about to be separated from Mikazuki, and having developed feelings for him, she was very reluctant.

Mikazuki left; he needed to prepare some supplies to load onto Barbatos.

Seeing the young lady looking a bit down, Hilda chuckled. "Young lady, are you reluctant to part with the boy?"

"The place Mikazuki is going to is very dangerous, but... he can't be persuaded, can he?"

"That's right, the boy's nature is very straightforward. He'll do whatever he decides, and perhaps that's Tekkadan's modus operandi."

Although reluctant, Lacus was not a woman who lacked understanding. Mikazuki was destined not to be an ordinary person. Perhaps the future world would undergo astonishing changes due to the emergence of this young man.

So she wouldn't force Mikazuki to return to PLANT with her. This was Lacus Clyne, an extraordinary woman who was nearly perfect in every aspect.

Her time with Mikazuki had also been very pleasant.

At this, Hilda spoke, "Young lady, you've fallen for the boy, haven't you?"

Lacus lowered her head in silence upon hearing Hilda's words. Hilda sighed softly and said, "Are you worried about your engagement with the Zala Family?"

Lacus showed a trace of sorrow. "I only feel a sibling-like affection for Athrun. If I were to tell my father, given his personality,

he would surely seek to dissolve the engagement with my uncle. At that time, we would be targeted domestically, making it difficult to move an inch, and it could even lead to civil war."

"Yes, the domestic situation is too complex now. Those four Red Coats who were ordered to kill you must have been sent by Chairman Zala. He probably wanted to eliminate our Clyne Faction for a long time."

"Regardless of whether they were sent by my uncle, we cannot make things public. The reason my uncle became so aggressive is because of my aunt's death on Bloody Valentine a year ago.

The tragedies caused by Bloody Valentine are already numerous enough. It's only been a year. If civil unrest were to break out now... we cannot add insult to injury for PLANT."

Lacus walked to the window and saw Mikazuki just leaving the main gate, a smile that would make anyone who saw it feel happy appearing on her face. She whispered, "It's okay. We will definitely meet again. That day won't be too far away..."
