"Haahh… Hahh…"
Harumi's mother sighed in exhaustion after experiencing that, but a second later, she was completely fine, her mind the same as before.
"I apologize for acting like that, it is unbefitting of my authority and strength," she said. "I know it must've been pathetic… But I assure you that if I were to confront that man, it wouldn't be the same."
Clementine tried to save some face, but Harumi and her friends couldn't blame her for feeling that way, Noah was a monster, and they knew by just looking at him!
"At the very least, he seemed committed to his work," she said. "And above all, he didn't chase you nor tracked you when you stepped out, even though you were the most vulnerable in that moment. It seems he has no intentions to target you, with his power even if you were together, it wouldn't really matter."
"So at the very least he's not hostile… for now," sighed Harumi. "What do we do now, mother?"
