Loud footsteps echoed throughout the corridor.
Along with the sound of footsteps, there was also a flustered and doting voice of a middle-aged woman.
"Miss Carly! Miss Carly! Master is receiving a guest now, we can't just let you barge in like that! If you do that, you'll damage the reputation of the Ashar family! "
Mana.
This middle-aged woman who had accompanied Carly since she was a child, not a mother, but a mother in some sense, was chasing after Carly's footsteps.
However, as she grew older and her figure became more plump, she was gradually unable to catch up to Carly who was still in her teenage years.
However, although Mana's footsteps were gradually unable to keep up with Carly's movements, her words still poked at Carly's sore spot.
From her perspective, her father's current actions were undoubtedly a betrayal.
A betrayal to Aubrey, to the entire nation, and to Aubrey's neutrality!
"Mana! Don't say anymore! If I don't stop father now, it will damage the reputation of the Ashar family! "
Carly saw her actions as an act of justice to save Aubrey, to save her father from taking a wrong step.
Therefore, she paid no heed to Mana's dissuasion and even hastened her footsteps towards the study of her father, Prime Minister Aubrey, Tommy Nara Ashar.
"Miss Carly! Miss Carly! Don't go! Don't go! That, that's not a guest you can meet! "
Mana's anxious and helpless voice came from behind, but it did not slow Carly down in the slightest. In fact, she even hastened her footsteps.
"What do you mean by a guest I can't meet?! If this goes on, Aubrey, and even father, the Ashar family will be dragged into the abyss of war!! "
Carly's mind could not help but recall the ambiguous news she had heard from a servant when she had just woken up in the morning.
It was said that a strange guest had suddenly come to visit in the middle of the night and was personally led into the room by Tommy. He then dismissed all the servants and did not allow them to linger around the study.
Although this mysterious attitude puzzled the servants, it was a common occurrence in Prime Minister Aubrey's residence.
However, Carrie secretly paid attention to what she heard from a servant.
"That guest seems to be a regulator."
That was what the servant said.
The speaker may not have meant it, but the listener meant it.
Now that the world was becoming more and more hostile, Carly's little brain simply thought about it and concluded that Aubrey was about to side with Zaft. Therefore, without much consideration and verification, she stormed into her father's study room angrily.
The footsteps grew louder and louder, and Carrie appeared in front of the study.
As expected, the moment she saw the door to the study, she saw her father's trusted aide, Cesaka, standing there and looking at her calmly.
"Cesaka, move aside!"
The towering man did not move. Instead, he calmly stared at Carrie's furious face.
"No, Carrie. This is not the place you came from. "
"Out of the way! Cesaka! Do you want Aubrey destroyed? "
Zisaka's eyes seemed to contain some hidden meaning, but Carrie, who believed that Mimi was about to lead Aubrey into the abyss, did not notice the glint in Zisaka's eyes.
"No. Carly! Lord Mimi has no such intentions. On the contrary, he is looking for a way to restore peace to the world. "
"Peace? Could it be that the way to restore peace to the world is to have Aubrey side with Zaft and become a part of the joint battle with Earth? "
Carrie did not even think and directly blurted out what she was thinking.
Cesaka's gaze froze on the spot.
If not for the fact that the young lady in front of him was Carrie, Cesaka might have done something on the spot to let Carrie know that some things should not be said carelessly.
However, there was someone who dared to teach Carrie this lesson.
"Creak ~ ~ ~"
The door behind Cesaka slowly opened.
The person who appeared at the door was a tall and imposing figure.
His neatly combed hair was slicked back.
That neatly trimmed beard,
That pair of sharp and calm suns,
It was the man known as the "Lion of Aubrey," Carrie's father, Mimi Nara Asha.
"Carrie. You're here. "
Mimi took a glance at Cesaka. After seeing some clues from Cesaka's action of silently retreating to the side, he looked at Carrie.
"Father …"
The moment Mimi appeared, Carrie immediately spoke her mind. She wanted to say out what she was thinking in order to stop Mimi's actions.
However,
The instant Carrie called out the word 'father', a sharp pain caused her to shut her mouth.
"Pa!"
She saw stars,
Her ears were ringing,
There was also a sharp pain coming from the side of her face.
"Nonsense! When are you going to stop fooling around! Carrie! "
A glint of disappointment flashed across Mimi's eyes. His tone revealed a trace of regret.
"Father …"
The side of Carrie's face was swollen red, causing her to be unable to say anything. However, her gaze was unyielding as she looked at her father.
She did not think and did not realize that her actions were wrong.
Mimi's gaze changed a few times.
Especially after seeing Carrie's swollen face, he could not help but sigh.
"Carrie. Come in! However, you better watch carefully and don't talk too much! "
In the end, Mimi still loved his daughter dearly.
No matter how much Carrie failed as the daughter of a country's leader, Mimi's heart was still soft-hearted.
Zisaka watched all of this in silence. After the father and daughter entered the study, he silently closed the door behind them and continued his mission of guarding the door for Jami Nara Asha.
"Creak ~ ~"
The door slowly closed, shutting out the outside world and Zisaka's back view. It also isolated Carrie's impulse from the outside world.
This was because the girl following behind Mimi saw a face that caused her to feel shocked.
"That … that is …"
She took two steps back and leaned against the door that had just closed behind her.
"Sigel Klein?! The chairman of PLANT's highest council?! "
Naive and rash were Carrie's labels. However, this did not mean that Carrie did not know anything about international figures with huge international influence.
"Nice to meet you! Is this the daughter of Mimi's representative? Hearing about you is not as good as meeting you in person. She is indeed a little lion. "
That's right.
Sitting on the sofa, an elegant blond man in a black suit with a black hat on his hand nodded slightly at Carrie.
Is this a compliment?
Carrie could not help but feel a tinge of joy in her heart.
However, Mimi sighed, not bothering to hide his disappointment.
"No. Sigel, you are too kind. My daughter cannot accept such an evaluation. In comparison, I think your daughter, Lux Klein, is more outstanding. "
"Representative, you are too kind! I'm just doing my duty. "
A heavenly voice quietly sounded, attracting Carrie's attention to another corner of the study.
There was a small tea table that Mimi had specially set up to receive guests.
If Sigel Klein was sitting on the sofa, then on the other side of the tea table was a beautiful girl with dreamy pink hair. She wore a white gauze dress and a pendant made of the sun, moon, and stars hung around her neck.
Lux Klein.
Carrie was no stranger to that innocent and beautiful face.
As the name card of PLANT's friendliness to the outside world, Lux Klein and her singing had gained many fans in various countries.
"Lux Klein."
Carrie could not help but be dazed by Lux's beauty, but she quickly regained her senses.
"Long time no see! Carrie. I did not expect our meeting to be like this! "
Carrie did not expect the pink girl to speak in a tone that suggested they had known each other for a long time.
Carrie could not react in time.
No matter how hard Carrie tried to recall, she could not recall ever coming into contact with such a beautiful girl.
Lux smiled at the puzzled look on Carrie's face.
"I am very sorry! Perhaps this face is a little unfamiliar to you, Carrie. If that is the case, perhaps it will be better. "
Lux slowly closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and chanted:
"In the name of Weiser!"
In the blink of an eye, a gust of wind blew, and a rainbow light appeared out of nowhere, occupying Carrie's, Mimi's, and Sigel's vision.
When the rainbow-colored light gradually faded away, the face that appeared before Carrie was no longer that beautiful, angelic pink girl. Instead, it was the face that she had spent some time with and even fought alongside with in the past.
Audrey Britannia.
Upon seeing the beautiful face under the beautiful black hair, Carrie immediately blurted out this name from the bottom of her heart.
"Long time no see! Carrie. It seems that you are more familiar with this face. "
Lux chuckled.
"You … Lux Klein? … Audrey …?! This … "
Obviously.
What happened before Carrie's eyes was beyond her comprehension.
Even though she seemed to be able to accept the fact that a beautiful girl had transformed into another beautiful girl right in front of her eyes, she was still unable to react in a short period of time.
Compared to her father, Mimi was much calmer and more composed.
"Sigel, is this your evidence?"
Lux and Lux's late night visit was not for the alliance between PLANT and Audrey, but to selectively inform Mimi of what happened within PLANT in exchange for Mimi's support on certain matters.
Although the name Sigel Klein and the shock of her identity was enough to make Mimi show a trace of trust.
However, the cautious Lion Audrey did not completely believe Sigel Klein's one-sided story.
Only when Lux personally appeared before the father and daughter and caused such a huge transformation did Mimi realize that her daughter seemed to have met the mysterious man and woman in the desert as Zisaka had reported.
One of the children of the mysterious man and woman was Lux Klein, who had used an unknown technique to disguise herself as another person.
From this, it could be seen that the man who accompanied and protected Lux, Kai Britannia, was another person, another young man who should have died.
"Kai Britannia, Kai? Hehe. I see! I see! Haha. "
Mimi immediately understood all the key points.
The young man who should have died accompanied the girl who should have been lying in the hospital of Palnt's capital, April City, to appear on Earth and met Carrie in the desert.
At the same time, "Lux Klein", who had the same face and was declared to be recovering from serious injuries by PLANT, began to appear frequently.
Even if the story was told, the world would not be able to understand it.
After understanding the situation, Kimi no longer looked at Lax Klein with the gaze of a senior looking at a junior. Instead, she looked at Lax Klein with the gaze of someone who viewed her as an equal.
"Sigel. I'm really envious of you for being able to raise such an outstanding daughter! "
Mimi's exclamation sounded again, which made Carrie subconsciously refute.
This was a normal reaction.
But before Carrie could express her dissatisfaction, a knock sounded.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Representative Mimi. I'm Lund Mina Sahak! "
Upon hearing this name, Mimi's gaze changed. She raised her hand to stop Carrie from speaking and looked at the door.
"Come in! There's a guest here! "
The door opened again.
The person who appeared before everyone was the current head of the Sahak family, Lund Mina Sahak.
The moment she stepped into the room, she nodded at Lux.
"Long time no see! Miss Audrey. "
"Long time no see! Miss Mina. "
Lux also responded.
But the greeting between the two caused Mimi's gaze to change.
"Sahak. I'm very sorry! I wasn't able to attend your inauguration ceremony. "
Mimi said apologetically.
"No! Representative Mimi, you're welcome! The Sahak family has always been Audrey's shadow. That's enough. "
Other than exchanging greetings with Lux, Lund Mina Sahak was very cold at the rest of the time.
Although it did not make people feel like they were being rejected by a thousand miles, it was enough to maintain a sufficient distance.
"This is the information on my foolish brother, Lund Mina Sahak."
The cold woman casually placed the information in her hand on the table and expressionlessly stated a shocking fact.
"Not long ago, I killed my brother, Lund Jina Sahak, with my own hands. But a week ago, the foolish brother that I killed and buried with my own hands has once again appeared outside the Sahak family's door. "
Lund Mina Sahak's gaze wandered over everyone's faces.
She realized that other than Lux and Siena, who were able to maintain a certain degree of calm, Mimi and Carrie were shocked.
"Of course. The foolish brother that appeared once again was killed by my order. Then, three days ago, the foolish brother that died once again appeared outside the Sahak family's island where the Dawn Society is located. "
"Wait! Sahak. What do you mean? "
Mimi slammed the table, stopping Lund Mina Sahak's next words.
"What do I mean?"
Lund Mina Sahak chuckled.
Her eyes met with Lacus' once more, and a cold smile appeared on her face.
"Representative Mimi Ashak. Don't you know what our Sahak means? In today's world, there is a dark organization that can use cloning technology to replace important political figures in various countries and control the entire world. "
After a pause, Lund Mina Sahak continued.
"I believe that Chairman Siena and Miss Lacus are well aware of this. Isn't that right? "
