Chapter 59: My World

"The operation will start as soon as we observe Genesis firing. The first stage is for us to cooperate with General Ghingham to tear a hole in the enemy's defense line while pushing the battle line towards Genesis." Ade said to Shinn, "This phase will mainly be Inle providing fire support and F91 awaiting orders."

"Understood."

"After breaking through the battle line, we can enter the second phase. The moon troops will provide fire cover and we will assault into the vicinity of Genesis with Gundams. We are expected to meet fierce resistance from the enemy at this time, and I will carry explosives to force my way into the interior of Genesis. Shinn, you are responsible for covering me and buying time."

"Is Adrien-san going to bring the explosives yourself?" Shinn glanced at Lacus, who also looked worried, "It's too dangerous to carry high explosives on the battlefield! It's better for me to do it. F91 is more flexible and Inle can cover me."

"Only Inle has enough defense and space to carry explosives, there's no choice, this is the best option." Ade smiled apologetically at Lacus, "Let me play cool. Just once, huh?"

"I'll do whatever it takes to protect Adrien-san!" Shinn nodded vigorously, "But are we the only two to break in?"

"The lifeline of this operation is speed, everything must be done before Genesis's second shot is ready, so the last critical step can only be done by F91 and Inle. There may be a small number of Jegans supporting us, but don't expect too much." Ade said in a deep voice, "The above is the detailed plan for this operation, have you remembered all of it?"

"Yes!" Shinn was still a little nervous, "No problem!"

"Ghingham gives such an important task to two civilians, he is too dark-hearted." Ade pretended to be relaxed and patted Shinn's shoulder, "Don't worry, just finish your duty, leave others to me."

"The entire army has thirty minutes remaining to arrive at the intended coordinates." The soldier on the bridge began to broadcast, "All MS pilots get on board."

"Let's go, Mr. Adrien." Shinn closed his eyes for a few seconds. When he opened his eyes again, there was no longer confusion inside, "I'm ready."

Ade smiled with some pride and followed Shinn towards the hangar. In the long corridor, the two heard something and looked back, only to see Lacus following behind.

"Well, well, I'll go first!" Shinn scratched his head in embarrassment and turned around and flew away.

"Ade" Lacus slowly drifted to Ade, took a deep breath, and hugged him hard, "You can only rely on yourself in the battle. I won't say anything extra at a time like this. Promise me, we will go home together."

"What are you saying? Finally, I can live a comfortable life with someone to cook and sing for me, I'm not willing to die." From the girl's slightly trembling body, he can feel her fear and anxiety. He hesitated for a moment, reaching out to gently stroke her long, silky hair, "I am not bold, but always keep my word. Do you remember my almighty NT radar? I promise you, we'll go home together."

Lacus just silently hugged him for another half minute, and when she let go of him, she felt for a moment that her chest was empty. The young girl looked up at him with a complex expression on her face, as if she was making some difficult decision. After a while, she finally made up her mind.

"Ade, come back alive." She quickly printed on his lips, "We will continue the rest when you come back."

After doing this, the young girl turned around and drifted off in the direction of the bridge without looking back. Ade looked at her back, stood silently for a moment, and turned to the hangar.

Changing clothes and coming to the hangar, he didn't see F91. Shinn should be waiting in the ejection position. Ade opened Hyzenthlays's door, and various displays and instrument panels came on. He sat up until he reached his seat, silently buckled himself in, and began the MS's self-check.

"Alice." He seemed to be talking to himself, "Do you know a term called the drawbridge effect?"

"No. Do you need me to search the internet right now?" Alice finally asked, "Ade, you look serious and say nothing, I don't know what to do."

"Not necessary. I was just asking casually." He checked the Hyzenthlays ammunition and energy, "What choice do you think those inhabitants of the moon have? They live like NPCs, and can't even determine their own death. Not to mention them, even Loran and Diana are no exception. And I even have the heart to think about this, what a luxury worry."

"Ade, I don't quite understand."

"In this world, even if you don't look for trouble, there's always trouble for you. I always want to find an absolutely safe place to live for the rest of my life, and my first reaction to being chased is to go back to the moon and hide. Now, I'm being blocked with a gun at my doorstep, and I suddenly realize that I was quite silly." He sighed to himself, "Shinn and Kou are both more aware of what to do than me, they've been doing what protagonists should do, and I've been standing around talking."

"Ade is great too." Alice shouted defiantly, "Ade saved Miss C.C., and also saved Miss Lacus, and everyone at the Torrington base."

"Thank you, Alice, but Amuro was right. I do seem quite timid. The more pretentious and sensible a person is, the timider they are, and something like courage requires hot blood." Self-examination completed, Hyzenthlays headed for the ejection position, "But now, I really want to protect the moon, protect Lacus, protect the life of going home every day to have food to eat, to be happy to build Gundam. I began to feel that this world is really my world, and I began to hate these people who want to destroy my world."

"Ade is omnipotent to Alice." Alice seemed to want to cheer him up, "As long as Ade wants to, he can definitely do it, and Inle will not lose to the bad people."

"Attacking the enemy's lair alone is not the same as the Torrington naval battle. I'm nervous now, my palms are slightly sweaty, my breathing and heart rate are on the high side, and I don't feel any heat." Hyzenthlays fixed itself on the ejection rack, "but I still feel a little narcissistically that I've leaned a little closer to Shinn and Kou and become more courageous, and I'm even thinking I can show off to Amuro the next time I see him."

"Don't be nervous, I will protect Ade." Alice's voice was very determined, "No matter what happens, Alice will definitely protect Ade."

"Not true, Alice." He chuckled softly, "You are also an important part of my world, probably the most important part, so I want to protect Alice as well."

"Ade?"

The row of green lights above the ejection rack lit up in sequence, and the departure clearance from the bridge crew came over the earpiece.

"Adrien Lingus, Hyzenthlays, move out!"
