"This is really quite a terrifying idea."
"Madam President, your words truly scared me."
Herbert muttered about being scared, withdrew his neck uneasily, but the emotion that flashed in his eyes was rather calm.
And the Witch Association president just quietly watched Herbert's performance, and after a while, slowly shook her head.
"You don't have to deliberately put on this act. I will tell you my true thoughts because I know you won't be afraid because of it."
"No, not only will you not be terrified by my words, but you will also become delighted, even filled with fighting spirit."
"And it is precisely because I understand this point that I am telling you this idea."
She spoke with certainty and calmness:
"No matter what I say, you will not change your thoughts. You... will never let Finn go, no matter what."
"Am I right?"
The grudge between Herbert and Finn would end with the latter's exile, but it would definitely not be the final conclusion.
