Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 755 Siegfried, You've Done All the Wrong Things
"What do you mean by 'Char Aznable stole the Gundam, leading to the Federation's defeat'? Is there really such a UC side story?"

"In theory, history has countless possibilities. Aren't you the most typical example of someone who single-handedly changed the course of the CE world?"

As it turns out, this side story derived from the UC main storyline is no match for CE in terms of individual combat strength. Siegfried and Shin took care of the three strangely shaped mobile suits without much effort. Ptolemy then contained and secured the Hermes. After ensuring that Kira's vital signs were stable, Lacus began to tell everyone about her and Kira's time-traveling journey.

It's unclear whether Siegfried was the pioneer, but after leaving the Moonlight Butterfly in the spacetime turbulence, Lacus and Kira arrived directly in the timeline he had visited, only later than Siegfried, just in time to witness the rise of the Titans.

Because Siegfried's existence in the UC world was too short, he had almost no impact on major historical events. Even though he once planned to shoot down Amuro at A Baoa Qu, he could only manage to get one Valkyrie due to his seniority.

He wanted to team up with Char, but the other side just threw Haman and Minerva over to him. In addition, the Zabi family's perverse actions on Side-3 completely aroused public anger. In the end, he still protected Dozle's widow and escaped to the asteroid belt. Then, he naturally became Haman's teacher and Minerva's bodyguard.

Although it did not affect the course of major events, Siegfried, who was born to act recklessly, still managed to alter a small part of history within his own capabilities.

This includes, but is not limited to, erasing Cima's dark history and taking her with him to the asteroid belt, as well as forcibly kidnapping Duck Girl when Char refused to cooperate and directly revealing that the two were descendants of Deikun.

He then repeatedly refused the remnants' support for Minerva to establish a principality and exile forces, and even tried to send Haman and Minerva to Earth. However, before he could finish his task, that terrorist Kado started preparing to cause trouble, and even righteously extended an invitation to him, the 'Red Reaper of Zeon,' to grow stronger together.

Knowing what was going to happen in 0083, Siegfried was determined to get rid of Gato, and get him as far away as possible. However, before he could finish the task, he received a 'summons from his hometown' and learned that Kira, that bastard, had actually sided with the compass. He could only instruct Sima to keep a close eye on Haman and Minerva, and then hurriedly returned to his own world to save the day.

As expected, the Federation's naval review went awry, making the establishment of the Titans a natural progression. Lacus and Kira traveled through time under these circumstances. Fortunately, the spacetime turbulence only destroyed the Defenders of Glory, and the main body of the Titans was not seriously damaged. Before the spacetime portal closed, Siegfried provided timely guidance, which ultimately led them to successfully find the asteroid belt.

What followed was the somewhat clichéd process of exchanging coded messages. Haman and Sima confirmed that the couple of unknown origin were old acquaintances of their master/benefactor. Lacus not only claimed to be Siegfried's sister but also successfully thwarted an assassination attempt against Minerva, which allowed the two to settle in the asteroid belt. The Strike Free State also got the opportunity for localized modifications.

"So what? How did you two end up on the side road? Just stay there and wait for me to come pick you up. It'll be fine once you're back."

Seeing Lux's body open and revealing her 'mature woman' demeanor' due to the time difference, Siegfried wanted to say a few words, but then he thought that the two of them had taken away the out-of-control Moonlight Butterfly with the determination to die, so he finally sighed and took the initiative to hug her.

"Master/Teacher!"

Before Lux could say anything, Haman helped Minerva in from behind. Siegfried's gaze skipped over Haman's puffed-up face and jumped straight to her hair. Only after realizing that it wasn't cut into an old lady's mushroom haircut did he reach out and touch it.

"Don't touch my head, you awful teacher! Do you know that Minerva and I both thought you were dead?!" "Ouch!"

Without even turning around, she knew the pain in her waist came from Ras's small hand. Thinking of her husband's behavior and the days she spent living in fear in the palace, Ras unconsciously increased the pressure on her hand, muttering things like "You heartless bastard" and "We're an orphan and a widow, just pretend you're not our father."

Seeing Siegfried's embarrassed state, Lux gave Haman a subtle wink. The latter immediately realized that there seemed to be a fire breaking out in her master's backyard, and the intelligent girl immediately spoke up to solve Siegfried's immediate problem.

"Master, could this be your super beautiful queen wife that you always talk about?"

"Ahem, I didn't."

"Hey, Master, don't be shy. One's the Prime Minister's wife, the other's the Queen's wife—Minerva and I are sick of hearing about it. And you still say no?"

Upon hearing Haman's seemingly unintentional words, Ras released his grip and subconsciously straightened his appearance. He then picked up the still somewhat bewildered Minerva with a warm smile and extended his right hand to Haman.

"Hello, Lars Winslet, the current Queen of Scandinavia, and also your master's legal wife."

After finally calming down Ras's resentment, everyone had time to exchange information. In fact, if given a choice, Siegfried would prefer the larger Federation. If he could save Reibir, he would be the Federation's undisputed hero. If not, with his skills, getting into Augur would be a piece of cake.

Unfortunately, he ended up wearing the armor on the Zeon side, and he was the youngest ace in Dozru's guard. Compared to how to win this battle, how to avoid the post-war purge was a more realistic problem, which led to the incident between Haman and Minerva.

As for Lacus and Kira, they are slightly different. Lacus's personal abilities did not decline after leaving the terminal. After Gato made a mess of things, Lacus gradually integrated the Zeon remnants surrounding Minerva with her superb political skills. After reaching an agreement with Artesia, she officially made contact with AOG by using Kovatro Bagina, who had infiltrated the Federation, as a bridge.

If everything had gone smoothly, Neo Zeon should have fought alongside the AEUG under Lacus's leadership against the Titans' tyranny during the Gryps War. However, just as the great battle was about to break out, Lacus sensed a call from another dimension. A new human will named Lala Shin pleaded with Lacus to resolve the trouble caused by another version of herself. In return, she would open a passage home for Lacus.

Thus, the scene Siegfried just witnessed occurred: the MS numbered GQuuuuuuX and GFreD regarded Lacus and Kira as those who were destroying the existence of the world and began to hunt them down. Since the Strike Freedom had been damaged in the battle with the mysterious giant machine, the two had no choice but to follow Lala's guidance and board the Elmes to enter the space-time tunnel.

Fortunately, Hilde had already noticed the abnormal fluctuations in space and came to their aid from the CE side. As a result, the three fledgling otherworldly mobile suits encountered the two great demons, Siegfried and Shin, as soon as they left the starting village. They were easily defeated by the Destiny Gundam and Phoenix without even putting up a decent fight.
