Lynch met Mr. Truman about a week after returning to the Federation.
There were too many little secrets between them, and since Lynch had just returned from Gafura, a meeting was inevitable.
"I'm sorry, you know, their Emperor died, so there has been a lot of diplomatic work for me to handle lately."
Mr. Truman began by apologizing for the delay in their meeting; initially, they had agreed to meet on Lynch's third day back.
But due to a sudden diplomatic delegation visiting the Federation, the meeting had to be postponed until now.
Lynch expressed understanding, raising his hand to invite Mr. Truman to sit down, "This is why I don't like being a politician. This work takes up too much personal time, and not everyone can handle that."
Mr. Truman agreed with this statement, feeling a bit sentimental.
The more power and higher position a politician holds, the less personal time they have.
