After sending them away, Akihiro once again called for Dai. He was in his office holding a glass of wine while standing by the balcony when Dai arrived.
"Why didn't you tell us sooner? Or why didn't you stop her?"
This question came to his mind the moment he found out that Dai knew of Eureka's plans. The hand holding the glass gripped on it tighter. He has anger in him, he knew he shouldn't have it but he just couldn't let it go just like that.
"Your highness, would I be able to?" Dai gave him the simplest answer.
"Then why didn't you tell us?"
"If I had, you would try and stop her. But she would stubbornly not listen to you. Then surely you would insist giving her more burden in her shoulder. She was able to execute everything beautifully because there's nothing stopping her."
"Beautifully indeed, but where is she now? Isn't she gone? Isn't she gone from us?"
"Up to now are you still not trusting her, your highness?"
