Chapter 139 The Curse of the Asuno Family
"Hmm~ Uncle, aunt and dad are really mean." Seeing Yang Hui and others act as riddlers, Yunoya complained with a puffy face.
"Haha, that's your brother's gift, why are you so excited?" Yang Hui rubbed Yunoya's head and laughed.
"Because he is my brother!"
"Yunuoya..." Yasem was a little moved. After all, he was also looking forward to what gift Yang Hui and others prepared for him. It was just because of his personality and the habits he developed since childhood, Yang Hui and others would not ask unless he said it.
But this feeling lasted less than a second and disappeared.
"...I know the gift you prepared for my brother. Can't I ask for a better gift on my birthday?" Yunoya added.
Yasem: (☉д⊙)?
"Hahaha..."
Everyone laughed happily, and Emily lectured Yunoya in a bad mood: "You are very rude, Yunoya, and besides, when you celebrated your birthday, weren't the gifts Yang Hui and the others gave you good enough?"
"Well, I know I was wrong, Mom." Although Yunoya apologized on the surface, she still stuck out her tongue in a quirky way, and it was obvious that she didn't intend to change.
However, Yunoya is indeed the most loved one in the family. She is the youngest in the family, and she is also a daughter, unlike Asem who is a boy and will be strict.
And although Yunoya is quirky, she is also a sensible and good child, so she deserves to be spoiled by everyone.
"By the way, there will be a mobile warrior competition next week, and my brother and the others are preparing to defend the title. Uncle, aunt, and dad should go together!" At this time, Yunoya suddenly said to Yang Hui and others.
"Okay, just take this opportunity to relax." Yang Hui nodded in agreement. The mission of the [Heavenly] Brigade is tense and easy. As long as it is not a mission that affects the survival of the Federation, they do not have to perform it. Moreover, the only person who has the right to order them is sitting at the same table. If Fleet wants to take a vacation, would he dare not approve it?
"Sorry, my vacation is only one day, I have to leave tomorrow." Fleet said.
"Eh? Why is it like this..."
"There is no way, your father is the commander-in-chief of the entire army." Graham teased. In fact, if Fleet really wanted to stay, no one would say anything. After all, the war situation is now in a period of easing, and there are no large-scale battles in various places. In addition to him as the commander-in-chief, [Big Ring] also has an excellent staff department. It is not that the war cannot be fought without him.
It's just that Fleet is a workaholic. Compared with accompanying his family, he spends more time on work. Although he doesn't hate VEGAN as much as the original trajectory, he also eagerly wants to end the war. His dream has never changed, that is, to become a savior.
"This is really a disaster for my family." Yunoya lay on the table as if she was deflated.
"Hahaha..."
Everyone laughed happily, even the somewhat embarrassed Fleet, knowing that Yunoya was just playing around. In fact, she and Asem, the brother and sister, respected and admired Fleet more than anyone else in the world, and Fleet would always be second in their hearts.
As for the first place... well, Fleet was brought up by him, so he couldn't compare.
"By the way, Asem, you are going to graduate this year, right?" Yang Hui asked.
"Yeah."
"Have you thought about your plans after graduation?"
As soon as these words came out, the cheerful atmosphere died down, and everyone's eyes were focused on Asem, with expectations, entanglements, and worries.
"Future plans..." Asem's expression was a little hesitant, "... Although I haven't thought about it carefully, I think I should join the federal army, right?"
"Why?" Emily asked immediately. She supported Asem to accomplish what he wanted to do, just like she supported Fleet back then, but as a mother, she naturally didn't want Asem to be in danger.
"Uncle Yang Hui, Uncle Graham, and Dad, you taught me since I was a child that as a man, I must protect what I love. Isn't it a war now? If I want to protect you, isn't the most direct way to join the army?" said Arthur.
"Protect us?"
"Yes!" Arthur nodded.
"Puff~ Hahahaha..."
"Hahahaha, you little brat, don't think you can be arrogant just because it's your birthday today!"
"It's too early for you to protect us, hahaha..."
Yang Hui and Graham laughed the loudest. Arthur, this young boy, really dared to say that. You are a student who hasn't graduated yet. When you were a child, you took you to conduct some MS simulation battles with interest in half training and half playing. You are so arrogant? You actually want to protect us, the absolute trump cards of the Federation?
"I'm telling the truth! Even if it's not possible now, it will definitely be possible in the future!" Arthur complained dissatisfiedly. He mustered up a lot of courage to say it, but was ridiculed. The dignity of being a boy made Arthur's idea more firm.
Yang Hui patted Arthur's shoulder and said with a smile: "Yes, you are a man. Then we will wait for you to protect us."
"Uncle Yang Hui..."
"But... I'm afraid it will take many years."
"Uncle, don't underestimate me! Humph!"
"Hahaha..."
...
The birthday party ended successfully. After cleaning up, Fangs, Emily, Arthur and Yunoya went back to their rooms. Yang Hui, Graham, Yulin and Fleet stayed behind. Some topics were not easy to talk about in front of others.
"Fleet, are you sure you want to do this?" There was no smile on Yang Hui's face at this time, and his serious tone made the atmosphere heavy.
"Well, Asem is a man of the Asano family. This is his responsibility and his mission." Fleet said.
"Why don't we want to end the war in our generation?" Graham asked Fleet.
"Do you think it's possible?" Fleet asked Graham, "With our efforts, the war between the Federation and VEGAN finally entered a stalemate, but you all know that the Federation is still at a disadvantage now, relying entirely on With the support of a huge population base and resource reserves, it will be impossible to completely reverse the situation within at least ten years, and..."
"A traitor from the top of the federation..."
As early as more than ten years ago, Fleet had noticed that there was a traitor in VEGAN at the top of the federation. Even if he was not a traitor, he was still a secret collaborator, and his status was quite high. Even if his identity was found, he could not find any substantive evidence.
"But you shouldn't hide it from Emily and Yunoa," Yulin accused.
"Emily and Yunoa can't hide things. Once they know about it in advance, Yasem will realize that something is wrong, and then there will be no point in doing so."
"But we can't let them fall into such danger."
"I have already told Fangus that he will pay attention to the safety of Emily and Yunoa, and since you are here, I believe you will protect them." Faced with Yulin's accusation, Fleet could not help but Feeling moved, he still insisted on his decision.
"Seriously, Fleet..." Yang Hui suddenly stood up, grabbed Fleet's collar, and looked at him coldly, "...I really want to punch you right now and make you short." When did you start taking advantage of your own family members? I don’t remember that I taught you these things.”
"This is the best arrangement and the most reasonable arrangement. We all know that the stalemate has reached its peak. VEGAN will not tolerate this situation continuing. There will definitely be big moves. I don't want to see anything from Asem. If you don't even understand, just join the fierce war," Fleet said equally seriously, looking at Yang Hui seriously and firmly.
"whispering sound."
Yang Hui let go of Fleet's collar, turned around and walked out the door. When he reached the door, he said without looking back: "Emily and Yunoa are also our family members, and we will protect them. "
Youlin naturally followed Yang Hui and left, leaving Graham and Fleet alone.
"Do you also think I did something wrong?" Fleet asked Graham.
"No, you did the right thing. Yang Hui also doesn't think you did the wrong thing. Asem will definitely drive the new Gundam to join the war. This is why we have taught him various things since he was a child. This is the mission of the Asuka family. , is also a curse,” Graham said.
"...Yang Hui..."
"He's just angry that you didn't discuss it with us in advance. If you had discussed it with us in advance, he would have come up with a perfect solution. You know, that guy values his family and companions more than anyone else."
"...I'm sorry, this was my mistake."
"Fleet, don't put all the pressure on your shoulders. No matter what, Yang Hui and I are your brothers."
"Well, I understand."
…
On the other side, Asem also looked at the AGE device and fell into thinking after returning to the room. In fact, he was not sure whether he really wanted to become a soldier. The reason for his answer was completely subconscious. After all, His family is the top military family in the entire federation.
His father, Fleet, was the Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Army. He watched him grow up, and his most admired uncles and aunts were also ace pilots of the Federal Army. It is said that his mother was also a nurse in the military health department.
Therefore, Yasem has accepted the military mentality since he was a child, and it is completely natural for him to join the federal army.
"It seems... there is no other choice, right?" Asem smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He said he was thinking about his future, but after thinking about it for a while, he seemed to realize that he had no other choice but to join the army. Otherwise, how would he get his father, uncles and aunts to recognize him.
Moreover, the idea that "men should protect their beloved ones" that he has accepted since childhood has been deeply ingrained, and he can't think of other ways to protect his beloved family members.
Simply...
"Let's talk to Uncle Yang Hui tomorrow."
