Philia also noticed Herbert's gaze and followed it, somewhat amazed by Herbert's sharpness.
He actually accurately noticed those people... just by their reactions?
Perhaps because she had completely dropped her usual disguise, Philia felt much more relaxed in conversation and asked outright:
"Are you here to retaliate against them?"
"Retaliation? No, the word 'retaliation' is not precise. More accurately, I intend to—seek revenge."
"Revenge..."
Philia furrowed her brows, then relaxed them, shaking her head: "Things might not be that easy."
"About those people's identities, you..."
Philia was about to speak, but Herbert shook his head to stop her: "Shh."
"You don't need to tell me."
Herbert looked at her, smiling: "I won't seek help from anyone, I will find the answer myself."
An unmasked truth.
I don't need your explanation.
Whether you have hardships or not, it's all the same.
Once I find out the truth, I will naturally come to my own conclusion.
