That just perfectly served Hye's purpose and aim. So he didn't risk it, and told Major the truth.
"Hmm… You and I will have a long talk after all this is over," Major was now far curious about why Hye was here. The information he collected about Hye was all quite surprising; a single human won the entire apocalypse, taking over the mighty Hescos forces out there.
It was indeed quite a feat, but then for twenty years, all news got halted and there was nothing about him at all except for a few weeks ago.
He learnt about rumours speaking of a great turmoil that Hye was in the middle of. Yet according to these rumours, he should have been far away from here, meddled in the middle of a heated-up war between Hescos and a famous merchant world.
He couldn't tell if these rumours were false or they were mistaken, yet he was sure the person fighting on his side here was Hye. and that meant he wasn't here to go to the outer battlefield. And Hye's recent words just confirmed this guess.
