[… The so-called Kenoma really thought the “Pleroma” were utter fools, didn’t they? For a moment, Hayame is almost offended… until she remembers that not only does she barely align herself with them…
There were a bunch of utter fools in that group. After all the grand speeches and emotional appeals based on nothing but hopes and faith that she’s heard from people in Godsblood and Greentruth… the servants of the Regent might not be wrong about thinking that just announcing such a thing might be greeted with enthusiasm. That it might be met with enough immediate trust despite his claim not to expect it that it meant she wouldn’t shoot.
Instead, he remains on the target end of an arrowhead, and Hayame calls out only two words across the water.]
Prove it.
[There’s only a few methods she can even begin to believe would be enough for her to buy that convenient story… but maybe he’s clever. He did look like a scholar, after all.]
