"Do you know something?"
"I'm not sure how to explain this, but I was already having a bad feeling about this."
Awkwardly scratching the back of his head to keep up with his acting, Leo turned his eyes to the ground embarrassedly, his play was just about to start!
"I didn't share it with anyone else back then because I was unsure of what it was, but I felt the exact same thing back when we were told to head to Mount Hua. In any case…"
Leo made sure to show vivid expression by using whatever little 'acting experience' he gained from reading and comparing it with his observation ability. He didn't say everything, but he was clearly pointing at the fact that he wasn't given the choice to refuse back then.
"You were uneasy?"
"...I know it sounds strange, but I really felt like I shouldn't go. Thankfully, once we departed the uneasiness seemed to fade away as soon as I noticed someone was observing us."
