Why would I join the army if I can’t drive a Gundam!

Chapter 33 Daken Faction

Claurel Harmon, a woman with a mysterious identity. Some say that she once served as Gihren Zabi's secretary, while others say that she is the sister-in-law of the former head of state, Zeon Decken. Macharius is not sure whether these are true or not, but he knows that this person and her fiancé, Rambaral, are the few Decken factions in Zeon.

The so-called Decken faction is the supporters of the former head of state, Zeon Decken. In the past, when Decken served as the head of state, the whole country was naturally Decken faction. But with Decken's death in an unclear assassination, after the Zabi family came to power, these Decken faction naturally became very annoying.

A new emperor appoints new ministers. In the eyes of the Deiken faction, the Zabi family, like themselves, are all Deiken people. Everyone is on an equal footing. Why should you be the boss? Since they dislike each other, it is natural that the two sides will communicate in various senses.

So, after a fierce political struggle, Kilian Zabi lost his patience and felt that instead of persuading the other party psychologically, it would be better to destroy the other party physically.

Thus, the bloody purge of the Deiken faction began, and the first to bear the brunt was the Lar family, whose reputation at the time was comparable to that of the Zabi family.

The head of the family at that time, Kimbalar, was also Deacon's right-hand man. After Deacon's death, he immediately protected Deacon's widow and two children. Therefore, the Zabi family had a reason to attack him.

In the riot instigated by the Zabi family, most members of the Lall family died. Only a few of them escaped by leaving Zeon and reaching Earth. However, the assassins sent by the Zabi family even tracked them down to Earth and killed the head of the Lall family, Kim Baral.

Now, the only one left in the Lal family is the eldest son, Rambaral, who is still serving in the Zeon Defense Force.

Because Rambaral did not reveal his political inclinations and had outstanding military talents, Kilian did not restrict him too much, but he did not use him either. When officers of the same seniority had become colonels, he was still only a captain.

Rambaral also knew that he was not welcomed by everyone, so his activities in Zim City were extremely simple. He went to the military camp to train soldiers during the day and went to his fiancée's bar to get drunk and rest at night.

On this day, when he was still training his soldiers fiercely in the military camp, his confidant who he had sent to serve as security for his fiancée came running over in a hurry.

"The Führer's Guard?"

After hearing that the secret police came to his door, Rambaral was furious. He had already been in such a state, and Kilian's people were not going to let him go?
So, the men watched in amazement as Rambaral jumped directly from the armored vehicle, then grabbed his men and jumped into the car.

"How many of them are there?"

"There are eight of them so far, but that guy said he's going to bring a whole group of people to tear the bar down!"

"Boy?"

Rambaral frowned.

"Tell me from the beginning!"

Soon, he found out the reason for the incident, and now Rambaral became even more angry.

You are such a good guy, Jilian. Now your subordinates are openly poaching my people, right?
Rambala, who was rushing all the way back to the city, immediately decided to teach that ignorant boy a lesson and give him a fist the size of a potato!
However, when he fought his way back to the bar and jumped down the stairs like a flying bird, he heard a woman's laughter.

"Harmon?"

Rambalar looked towards the bar, only to find that his fiancée was chatting animatedly with the kid sitting at the bar.

"Boy, you're sitting in the wrong place. This is my seat!"

Although only 1.7 meters tall, Rambaral, who was extremely strong, immediately stepped forward and patted Macharius on the shoulder.

"Uncle, your tricks are outdated. They won't please women, right, Sister Harmon?"

"Yeah, who would like an ugly, old uncle? Young, rich guys are cuter!"

The last time Harmon saw his fiancé so eager was the day when the Lal family was in name only. Now, seeing him like this for him, although he was very happy, he couldn't help but want to play with him.

"I'm ugly and old? And poor?"

Rambaral's forehead vein bulged, and he gritted his teeth as he looked at Macharius. "Yeah, uncle, you're only a captain, right? Is your salary enough to buy a house in Zim City? How big can you afford? Have you thought about decorating your house? How many times a year do you plan to travel?"

"So, you are very rich?"

"It's okay, it's just my manor, there's a mountain and a sea!"

Macharius said lightly that his house was indeed quite big. After all, nearly half of the Earth's inhabitants had moved away, and the vacant space naturally belonged to the people who stayed on Earth.
"Then I must take a good look!"

Harmon did not forget to add one more sentence.

"That's enough, kid. Tell me, what are you doing here?"

Rambaral was no fool, and he could naturally see that the person in front of him was a regular soldier who was still immature, not Kilian's secret police. Moreover, when he entered the door, Harmon even waved a federal currency for him.

So, he already knew Macharius's identity.

"I'm here to negotiate, Captain Rambaral!"

Macharius put away his previous playful expression and stretched out his right hand towards the other party in a serious manner.

"What do you want to discuss? If you want me to be a spy for the Earth Federation, forget it!"

"No, I'm here to discuss the future of Zeon and the Deiken faction!"

"Just you?"

"Don't you want to know the whereabouts of Caspar and Artesia?"

The second after Macharius finished speaking, Rambaral rushed in front of him, stretched out his hands, trying to lift him up high.

"What do you know, and who are you?"

"Introduce yourself, Macarius Crinyi!"

Gently pushing away the opponent's hands, Macharius then released the first bombshell.

"First of all, Caspar Daken is not dead!"

"Not dead? Not dead? Not dead!"

Rambaral took a few steps back, slumped in his chair, muttering to himself. Soon, the expression on his face changed from joy to pain and self-blame. Finally, the strong man even touched his eyes.

"Clini, so you are here to represent Jin Enzhong?"

"You can say that!"

Macharius borrowed his grandfather's name without hesitation, and the old man probably wouldn't mind.

"So, what do you want to do?"

"I told you, I want to talk to you about the future of Zeon, the future of the Earth Federation, and of course, the future of the Zeon faction!"

"Of course, the prerequisite for achieving all this is that we must first survive the war!"
