Kairu frowned and then ask
'The Republic already say aye?' he asks Jean but it was someone else that answers
'The Republic say Aye' Azief suddenly said, his cold voice echoes in the room.
Jean smiles at this and he simply closes his eyes like nothing just happened.
Some people also sense the tense atmosphere almost immediately. They then remember
Right now the Republic seems to be split into two, one of them following Jean, the other following Katarina.
Maybe, he doesn't want Jean to answer on behalf of the Republic to avoid things getting worse for the internal matters of the Republic.
Jean also did not mind. This is just a small drama and no one wanted to make this small thing bigger. It relates to so many powerful people that it is better not to get suck in this problem
Kairu then look toward Hirate and Hirate nodded.
'The Three Great Powers had already decided this'
