"I'm very sorry, Kouhei-sama," Yuka said, lowering her head slightly as she addressed him. "I sincerely apologize for putting you in that kind of situation, especially when you were dragged into something that you probably never intended to become this serious in the first place."
"I-It's fine," Kouhei replied, still looking a little uncomfortable with how serious everyone was making the situation sound. "It's my fault that things escalated in that form anyway, so I don't think you need to take all the blame for what happened."
"Kouhei-kun," Yuuna said, turning toward him with a much more serious expression than before. "At this point, I think you should be a little firmer about this matter, because what Yuka and her member did could be considered a declaration of Faction War. If you simply let something like this slide without making a proper statement, there is a very real possibility that someone could interpret your silence as permission for it to happen again."
