The Chapter get Retranslated
Rau Le Creuset, wearing a mask, could not show his expression, but from the way his index finger tapped his chin, it was clear he was deep in thought.
He was pondering how to deal with this terrifying mobile suit. He had a premonition that the appearance of this machine might disrupt his plans.
Just then, the comms next to the infirmary chimed.
"Captain, please return to the bridge. A heat source similar to a battleship has been detected."
"Alright, I'm on my way back."
Rau Le Creuset hung up the comms and said to Athrun Zala,
"Anyway, Athrun, put that mobile suit aside for now. Get some good rest. Yzak Joule and the others will come to see you soon."
"Yes, sir."
Rau Le Creuset nodded and left the infirmary. Athrun Zala lay on the bed, frowning at the white ceiling of the infirmary.
"That mobile suit... could it be... Kira Yamato piloting it? The one I saw when we were seizing the mobile suit...
No, that's not right. Kira Yamato isn't the type to pilot so wildly. Kira Yamato should be in the last Gundam, right? So what exactly is that mobile suit...?"
"Athrun!"
Just as Athrun Zala's mind was racing, Yzak Joule, Nicol Amalfi, and Dearka Elsman arrived at the infirmary.
Nicol Amalfi, seeing Athrun Zala on the bed, quickly floated over, stopping himself by grabbing the bed rail.
"Athrun, are you alright?"
"Ah, I'm fine. Sorry to make you worry."
Yzak Joule cursed.
"You idiot! As a Red Coat, to be beaten like this, you're a disgrace!"
Dearka Elsman chuckled beside him and muttered,
"You saw the combat footage, didn't you? You wouldn't have fared much better against that MS by yourself than Athrun."
Yzak Joule's ears twitched, and his already short temper was further agitated by Dearka Elsman, his forehead covered in vein marks.
"You brat, say that again!"
"Shh, shh, shh."
Dearka Elsman quickly looked up and whistled.
"You two, don't argue..."
Nicol Amalfi quickly stepped in to mediate.
The medical personnel in the infirmary was a rare female soldier, and a rather beautiful one at that. The doctor pulled back the white curtain and yelled in Athrun Zala's direction.
"What are you arguing about?! Is being a Red Coat so great?! This is an infirmary! Shut up, you idiots!"
The female doctor was completely unafraid of these four Red Coat elites and cursed them openly.
"We are very sorry."
The four Red Coats apologized and immediately shut up. Even the fearless Yzak Joule cowered.
They couldn't help it. She was a doctor, and the best medic on this warship. What if she decided to mess with your treatment if you got injured?
The profession of a doctor is crucial everywhere, not to mention in this era of space travel and constant warfare.
Most importantly, the doctor on their warship was a top graduate from a Plant medical academy.
Not only that, but she was also proficient in martial arts. Once, two Red Coat seniors, looking down on the female doctor, were kicked flying by her two legs. Athrun Zala and his three newly joined comrades happened to witness this scene.
Since then, they dared not show any disrespect or contempt towards the female doctor, for no one wanted to be taken out by their own side, right?
"Alright, if you're done, leave quickly. The patient needs rest."
"Wait... Doctor, Doctor..."
The female doctor unceremoniously shooed them away. In the infirmary, Athrun Zala let out a sigh of relief and smiled at the female doctor.
"Thank you."
The female doctor pouted, floated to the bed next to Athrun Zala, sat down, and crossed her legs.
"No need to thank me. But you, you're Commander Sara's son, right? Why come to such a dangerous frontline?
Look at you now, you're really in danger, aren't you?"
Athrun Zala's expression was complex. He was about to speak but was interrupted by the female doctor.
"Is it your father's order?"
"Something like that..."
"I see. But no matter what, you're a Red Coat. Your opponent was a Natural, right? To be beaten like this...
I also heard that Rau Le Creuset's Zaku was severely damaged. Did you encounter the same opponent?"
The female doctor's eyes sparkled with curiosity. After all, Captain Rau Le Creuset's strength was renowned throughout the squadron as an ace, and his mobile suit had its left arm and head severed. This was almost unbelievable in her perception.
Athrun Zala was confused about this point, and most puzzling was whether Kira Yamato was on that warship.
"The opponent was indeed the same, but... I'm not sure if the opponent was a Natural. If it was a Natural, that kind of physical manipulation would be impossible to withstand."
The female doctor suddenly developed a strong interest in the mobile suit that defeated their Red Coat elite and captain. All Red Coats were top-tier Coordinators in terms of piloting and overall capabilities.
"Alright, get some good rest. With medication, you'll be fully recovered in a day."
"Yes, sir."
With that, Athrun Zala closed his eyes and fell asleep. He was indeed a bit tired.
The female doctor returned to her office deep within the infirmary and resumed work.
Archangel
Mikazuki Augus opened his eyes, having woken up naturally.
"Orga."
Orga Itsuka's voice came through the earpiece.
"Oh, you're awake.
Don't worry, they haven't done anything extra to the Gundam Barbatos."
"Is that so? Where is this warship going next?"
Orga Itsuka was speechless.
"You, didn't that woman named Murrue Ramius tell you? You're going to Artemis Fortress for resupply."
"Ah, is that right? I forgot."
Mikazuki Augus scratched his head, took a date from his pocket, and ate it, demonstrating his unconventional nature to the extreme.
Orga Itsuka was exasperated by Mikazuki Augus's habit.
