"Ah, thank you! You must be…Kira Yama-san!”
Flay, who had fallen into Kira's arms, raised her head and looked at Kira gratefully.
After experiencing the baptism of war, Kira became more stable. She smiled and replied.
"Yes, are you alright? I'm sorry, I didn't know that you were in there. Otherwise, I would have been more careful when moving the escape capsule!”
"Could it be that the pilot of that MSS is Kira?”
"Yes!"
"You're amazing. Kira, you saved my life. Thank you so much!”
"It's nothing. Are you okay? Did Zaphte get injured from the previous attack?”
Kira's concern touched Flay, and the fear and uneasiness brought about by the sudden outbreak of war faded a lot.
Seeing the intimate atmosphere between Kira and Flay, Sai's expression darkened, while Milia appeared very calm.
Kira carried Flay back to the floor. Perhaps because Kira had saved her twice in a row, Flay had been holding Kira's arm tightly.
"Hey, what happened?‘Heliopolis? I got separated from Disika and the others. I heard that Zaphte attacked!”
Kira briefly explained what had happened.
Although Sai had a gloomy expression on his face, everyone was safe and sound. The joy of reunion diluted the sadness of their home being destroyed. They were too focused on talking to pay attention to the situation around them when Mu La Frada walked over.
"Yo, this really surprises me."
He leaned over to Kira with a smile on his face.
"What, what's wrong?"
A tall soldier suddenly ran out in front of her, and Kira couldn't help but frown. The soldier in front of him gave him a bad feeling.
Mu smiled and said.
"You're a regulator, right?"
Mu's words caused the surrounding air to freeze.
Malo, who walked down from the bridge, secretly glared at Mu with a bitter expression. Kira hesitated for a moment, then looked back at Mu with some displeasure.
"Yes!"
In an instant, the soldiers behind Malliu and Natar all raised their guns and pointed them at Kira. At the same time, Flay, who had been gripping Kira's arm tightly when she heard Mu's words, let go of his arm as if Kira was a ferocious beast and dodged far away.
This was the epitome of this war, the natural man versus the regulator.
Modifier-refers to a human being born from the manipulation of genes. They could unleash the greatest potential of mankind. They could be said to be superhumans created by humans. Whether it was in terms of intelligence or physical strength, Coordinators were superior to ordinary people, and their resistance to various diseases was perfect. Because this technology could effectively cure the increasingly serious genetic diseases, in the C.E. 20s, the global trend of genetic modification was set off.
However, due to the obvious difference in ability between the regulator and the natural person, who was born without genetic modification, the mentality of rejection was born. Humans began to repeat the history of bloodshed. The adjustors who were more adapted to space life than natural humans had to move to areas outside Earth. The place they later settled down was the space colonization satellite group built in the L5 area-" Plant."
Now, the army owned by the " Plant ", Zafte, had arrived on Earth---it was equivalent to a war between the regulator and the natural person. When these soldiers heard the word " regulator ", it was inevitable that they would raise their guns in reflex.
Flay's reaction was due to the education she had received from her family since she was young, which made her full of hostility towards the regulator.
Kira hadn't said goodbye to Flay before because she had sensed this. Unexpectedly, even though he had saved his life twice, after his identity as a regulator was exposed, Flay's attitude towards him immediately took a 180-degree turn.
However, what Kira didn't see was that after subconsciously shaking Kira off, a complicated look flashed in Flay's eyes.
Even though she had been taught since she was young that the regulator was the enemy, Flay was still an independent person with her own cognition and emotions. It was just like how we were taught that lions were terrifying from a young age, but there was still the profession of a beast tamer. After they grew up, they formed their own views and personalities through their understanding of the world.
Kira was the first Modifier that Flay had come into contact with. However, the person who had frightened her and attacked Heliopolis was also a Modifier. She did not know what to do.
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, Milia rushed to Kira and opened her arms as she shouted excitedly.
"He is an Adjustor. Kira is not an enemy! He even protected us in the battle with Zaphte! Didn't you see?"
"That's right. Without Kira, you would have died just now! This was really returning kindness with ingratitude. Was this the Earth Corps?”
Thor also rushed out and glared fiercely at the soldiers who were pointing their guns at Kira. He spoke passionately, as if he was willing to fight. Sai and Cather hesitated for a moment and also stood on Kira's side. Only Flay remained unmoved and sized them up curiously.
Why were these people willing to stand up for a regulator? Even Sai felt the same. She couldn't understand.
"Put the gun down!"
Ma Liu ordered.
"What's there to be surprised about?" Heliopolis was a colonial satellite of a neutral country. It was not surprising that the regulator who did not want to be involved in the war would move here.”
"Yes, I am the first generation challenger!”
Kira nodded silently. The hatred of the alliance army towards the regulator was beyond his expectations. Otherwise, with his personality, he wouldn't have bothered to explain to these people.
" First generation " referred to those who had undergone genetic modification for the first time. In other words, it was a child born after the parents of a natural person had their fertilized egg undergo genetic modification surgery. Since his parents were both natural people, he would naturally not reject the idea of migrating to a neutral country's colonial satellite.
"Aiya, I'm so sorry. He did not expect to cause such a huge commotion.”
As he spoke, the culprit who caused this commotion used an innocent tone.
"I just wanted to ask. On the way here, I've seen plenty of simulation training done by the prospective pilots. Just the clumsy movements of the Assault Gundam are already very strenuous for them.”
Mu shrugged and went back to the original topic.
"However, you made this guy move so easily, so I guessed that you were a regulator!”
Indeed, the others also thought of the scene of Kira piloting the Assault Gundam in battle. Even the Zaphte soldiers who were adjustors were vulnerable to him. If he hadn't lured the enemy in front and entangled the Holy Shield Gundam, perhaps the Archangel would have fallen long ago.
"I'm really sorry!"
