"Hmm... nothing. It's just that, even though we're in a very dangerous situation right now, you seem to have this firm demeanor that everything will be fine in the end. It just made me curious." Euphemia's words hung in the air, revealing her curiosity about the composed facade I wore amid the chaos.
