Chương 734: Are you angry?

"I'm staying behind as well." After a period of silence, Yukari spoke up in a serious tone. "I understand that you're worried, Seiji. But, since you can clearly command us to leave, yet you're making us choose instead, doesn't that mean you have expectations of us?"

Seiji remained silent.

"You're worried about our safety and want us to leave, but you're not absolutely certain if this is the best for us." Yukari looked directly at him. "That's because danger is also an opportunity for growth… You don't want to single-handedly take this chance away from us. In your heart, you still have some expectations that we'll stay behind, which is why you're letting us choose. No matter whether that's what you really think or not, I'm still making the same choice, for the same reason as you: because I want to fight!"

"Yukari…" Seiji was unable to say anything in response to her direct words.

"It's my honor to fight together with you, Knight #2." Hisashi smiled.
