"That's for sure, but is it necessary to elaborate further?"
After calming down and thinking about it, why I started talking about this topic unknowingly is a mystery even to me. However, although there were only two people present, the content is the content after all, so it is better not to say it too loudly.
I deeply feel that this man is not considerate at all.
"Anyway, I know very well that you don't think I'm dangerous or scary right now...Whether that's good or bad is another matter."
"I don't think he looks like a man who would complain under his breath."
"Let's not talk about this for now. Let me talk about the original purpose and your troubles."
Although she was dissatisfied with being put there, Natsumi also understood from the debate so far that she and Theon seemed to have completely opposite opinions regarding Natsumi's stance towards Theon.
Once that topic is touched upon, it is obvious that neither side will give in and will only waste time, so let's follow Theon's suggestion for now.
Neither of them spoke immediately. They just drank the milky coffee in the paper cup in one go to moisten their throats that were dry from the quarrel just now.
"Then? What happened to your two brothers?"
"...Brother Aki and Brother Haruma, although the contents are somewhat different, they are both worried about Xion. Regardless of what I can do, I want to do something anyway."
"Even so, why don't you discuss it with me, the culprit?"
"Brother Chunma won't talk anymore. Aki and brother also talked about some reasons for their troubles. I want to ask Xion what he thinks first and then think about what to do!"
After all, the disputes were between Ajit and Xion, and Halma and Xion.
After all, Natsumi is an outsider and doesn't understand everyone's thoughts. In this case, acting solely on your own assumptions can lead to misunderstandings and make the conversation more complicated.
In particular, Xion's idea is likely to be beyond Natsumi's understanding, so it will be dangerous if it is not confirmed carefully. This is Natsumi's idea.
"In case of arbitration, do we need to understand the situation of both parties first? Huh? However, if we want to ask this question, it can only be done through correspondence, right?"
"This is……"
It's just because I haven't seen each other since the incident with Yadong, so I just want to meet him, but I feel a little embarrassed to say it to him.
"You mean, we haven't seen him for a long time, do you want to see his face?"
"how do you know?!"
Being easily guessed by Theon, who was neither considerate nor understanding the subtleties of human emotions, he made a loud noise involuntarily.
"I've had that feeling too." I haven't seen him for a week. Is that guy still alive? Was he knocked down by the death curse before he rolled out? "Something like that, right?"
"Oh, yes."
Although my feelings were a little different from Natsumi's, I realized once again that even Xion felt this way, and it wasn't strange to worry about a friend he hadn't seen for a long time.
Maybe Natsumi realized that she was shy and cared too much about it.
"...No! Speaking of which, what on earth did I realize?!"
Natsumi shouted subconsciously and hit her head heavily on the table.
Sion on the opposite side was startled, and the three familiars on the table rolled down like balls, but he had no time to care about it.
"...Well, let's have a cup of milk coffee first..."
"...I accept it."
He accepted Theon's poor concerns and drank some milky coffee that the familiars quickly brought to calm down.
"... Calm down. Let's get to the point."
Natsumi was deeply aware of the looks from Xion and the familiars, wondering if they were really okay, but she decided to continue anyway.
"Brother Aki seems very troubled. He feels like he can't even believe his eyes."
"My own eyes? Don't you mean me?"
"Yeah. It's not like he doesn't care about Yadong, but he's not afraid of Xion or anything like that."
He didn't blame Theon for his behavior and said he didn't mind.
In the end, Xiaojing only said one sentence: "I no longer have confidence in my eyes."
"...Simply, I thought you knew I was a dangerous monster, so you were on guard against me."
"Brother Aki wouldn't do this."
As far as Natsumi knew, Akide was not a person who disliked others easily.
Theon, who had been protecting "Miststan" and the civilians struck by misfortune until now, couldn't possibly give up just because of that incident.
Looking at Natsumi who was angry because her respected brother was looked down upon, Xion simply apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"But to be honest, both you and the captain are too naive."
"sweet……"
"I am a man who kills dozens of people and can eat well and sleep well that night."
Theon's words and eyes seemed to say, "Look, it's scary." It made me cringe.
"However, I can't believe my eyes here... Is it really that person's character that suffers too much?"
Theon muttered with a look of surprise on his face, and finally scratched his head roughly.
"This guy, if the captain doesn't come to his own conclusion, there's nothing he can do."
"Can't Theon and his brother talk calmly and heart to heart?"
The "own eyes" that Aki refers to are probably the impression Aki has on Xion.
And, if you “don’t have confidence”, just build it up again.
"Probably not. If we talk to the two of us in our current situation, we can only see a future that is suspicious and even more awkward."
"What should we do?"
"...Anyway, this is a matter for the captain to draw his own conclusions. There is no need to interfere."
Theon sighed and propped himself up on his elbows tiredly.
"Probably, it won't work if the captain himself can't accept it. As for where the conclusion will be, it doesn't matter at this point."
"...Is it okay for my brother to think that Xion is dangerous?"
"I'd rather recommend you."
Xion was afraid of himself again and began to question himself. Natsumi was unhappy with his attitude, but when she saw Xion's calm eyes, she shrank her voice.
"As a soldier of the human army, no matter what you think, you are right. Because you have a good impression of someone who is regarded as a thorn in the side of most humans. There is only risk."
This sentence was not only said to Xiaojing, but also to Xia Mei, and Xia Mei had no words to refute.
The video of protecting the hostages in Yadong went viral. Although it was better than expected, there is no doubt that most people are wary of Theon.
In such a world, to view Theon with kindness is to treat the world as an enemy.
Anna and the Thirteenth Skill Team, who made their attitude clear, were maliciously attacked by others within the human army.
There is currently no direct action within the human army, only to a small extent, but if it is on a global scale, it is definitely not a small problem.
Maybe they will be rejected by humans...
Natsumi's shoulders shook slightly as she realized a risk she had never considered before.
"In that case, let's not talk about the captain's matter for now...about the lightsaber brother, what do you think?"
The indifferent atmosphere he showed just now disappeared in an instant, and Xion in front of him was the same as usual - becoming a little uncomfortable.
Although she was puzzled by this gap in her heart, Natsumi still opened her mouth to Xion's question.
"I didn't ask too much. After the Yadong incident, I was very troubled... When I found out, I seemed to be very unhappy, even more serious than Brother Xiaojing... What's wrong?"
Although Xion only answered the other party's question, for some reason, he lay on the table holding his head.
"That... Regarding this, I have to say I'm sorry, or I'm sorry..."
"What happened? Or what was done?"
"I won't talk about the first half. The unhappiness in the second half was probably my fault... I think."
Then Theon told me that was the shower room.
"...Well, Brother Harujian will definitely be angry."
"That's true..."
It was simply a statement that had no interest in the other party.
From Natsumi's point of view, it was natural for anyone to be angry when being said like this, but Xion himself didn't seem to feel that way.
Man, it's hard to understand feelings you don't have.
Because of this, even though Robin and Rhys pointed it out, Theon still didn't understand why Haruma was angered.
What he said to Chunma had no intention of angering him.
