Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 691 Election Day (Part )
After Neo Agama took off, Mina just said hello to Kulaitis on the bridge and returned to her room. Although she also had certain command capabilities, considering her identity on this trip, Mina decided to let professionals do professional things.

Although this high-end imitation of Lund Bell is not as free as the Celestial Being in terms of authority, at least it is not as cramped as the original body in that distant time and space. At least Mina, as the vice chairman, is supporting them with all her might. They can get warships and aces, and all supplies are in accordance with the highest standards. Kuraitis's decision-making power is even greater than when she served in ZAFT.

Of course, the internal composition of this team is also extremely complex. All the bridge members have a ZAFT background, plus there are two second-generation council members in the MS team, but at the same time there are aces of the People's Revolutionary League like Gist and Troy to support them, and finally there is a die-hard Orb fan like Takito.

Taking into account the background of Michal and Lina's repeated transfers, once Londo Bell left Orb's support, the team would disintegrate due to factional issues without any external struggle. Kuratis did not have the strong appeal of Lin Youde, and there was no way she could think of raiding the Cheyenne base.

"Come in."

There were three knocks on the door. From the strength of the sound, Mina had guessed that the person coming was Mia. After getting a new body, Mia refused the opportunity to change her name again, because the proprietress and her family who were rescued by Siegfried had long lost contact in the continuous wars. Mia hoped that they could hear her singing in some corner of the world, so that they could return to Orb again.

"What's wrong? Nervous?"

"I've performed countless times as Lux. Although I have to campaign for the election this time, I'm no longer the Mia who could only sing in the tavern."

Mia lifted the hair that fell by her ears with one hand and sat down lightly. Seeing this, Mina didn't ask any more questions and took out a set of tea sets. With the steam rising, the two of them fell into silence for a while.

"Why do you have to take me with you?"

A moment later, the sound of boiling water in the kettle tore through the silence. Mia mustered up the courage to look up at the other person, as if trying to find the courage to sustain her actions.

"Because you sing beautifully. I can hear your singing many times when I pass by the Island of Dawn. I have to say that it seems to have a magical power that can calm people down. Hilde once said that maybe in a certain world, a war can be stopped by singing alone. I think you have this potential."

"When I was Mia, the world was at war. When I became Lacus, the world was still at war. Now I'm Mia again, but the world still can't stop the war. I just think that this result is too cruel for Siegfried."

With her lowered eyes hiding behind the steam, Mia's beautiful face became a little blurred with the steaming water vapor. Even her voice had a little dampness, and the only answer she got was a long sigh.

"I still remember one time, it was about 2 a.m., and I was waiting for a calculation result with Hilde in the laboratory,"

Mina's sigh didn't last long, but she started talking about a past event that seemed unrelated to Mia's question.

"When the time was almost up, she suddenly swept all the instruments on the table to the ground, pointed at me and said it was all because of your fucked up world while crying loudly. You know, this was the first time I saw Hilde cry. Compared with her usual calm and composed self, she was like a completely different person."

"."

"Actually, I quite like this sentence. Our world is really fucked up. Peace is simply vulnerable in the face of hundreds of millions of lives between natural humans and adjusters. Hundreds of millions of human debts, I think the word "blood feud" is not enough to describe it." As an Orb elder of the same period as Uzummi, Mina's understanding of the world is obviously far beyond Mia. Beneath the appearance of racial conflicts are multiple large-scale deaths, and this kind of overwhelming hatred cannot be resolved by a lunar orbit battle.

Just like Hilde revealed the mastermind behind the attack on Washington not long ago, there are still nearly 70% of the ground troops shouting to kill all the adjusters. At the same time, there are also a group of PLANT members who are thinking about counterattacking the earth day and night. Neither side is much nobler than the other.

"War can settle many things, but it can never eliminate hatred. Of course, killing everyone on the other side to eliminate hatred is also an option."

"Are we just going to watch Siegfried and his men's efforts go to waste?"

"So, this is the purpose of my trip. The terminal's mode not only regards itself as a troublemaker, but also regards the world as a cesspool. It's no wonder that even the girl from the Klein family couldn't stand this mode of dealing with things after they happen."

After returning from Berlin this time, many old members of the Three Ship Alliance, including Cagalli, could see the sense of decadence in Lacus. Among them was of course Mina. As the last heir of the family, Mina knew very well that what Lacus shouldered was far heavier than that of a Sahak family, so she unexpectedly became the person who could understand Lacus the most.

"The People's Revolutionary League seems to have won the war, but due to Siegfried's existence, the People's Revolutionary League won too easily. Sometimes I wonder, if Senator Juel's satellite had really fallen down, would they have knelt down and kowtowed to Siegfried not to give up the People's Revolutionary League with only a broken earth to rely on?"

Along with the somewhat cold words, the mist seemed to be frozen. Mia stared blankly at the woman who had a great chance of becoming the second chairperson of the People's Revolutionary League. She suddenly felt that there seemed to be a very important message hidden in the other party's subtext.

"Reformists, conservatives, neutrals, the Earth hasn't even been unified yet, but they can come up with so many tricks. Add to that a PLANT that refuses to accept its fate, and I actually understand Azleru, who destroyed Orb."

"Minna Ni"

"The political world has its own rules. Durandal used the entire arsenal as bait in order to claim war. The ideal state of the Celestial Being should not be to become the collective fear of all mankind, but to become a sword of Damocles, so it cannot have any stains. Since Luo Pan is desperately trying to parasitize the body of the People's Revolutionary League, I want to see if they have the patience to watch me get elected."

"This is too dangerous!"

Mia found that she seemed to have grasped Mina's thoughts. In a panic, she quickly stood up but accidentally knocked over the teacup on her chest.

"The People's Revolutionary League needs a strong government to create a buffer period of at least 20 years for the group of reformers, and the responsibility of this strong government should not be borne by Siegfried."

"The time left for Luo Pan is running out. Dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry. The same is true for people."
