There was not a doubt in Prince Dante's mind that this man would actually do it. He probably would be smiling before springing the trap.
Prince Dante knew that this wouldn't work and decided to change the question, "What would a normal man do if he was asked to go into a trap and die?"
Hugh thought for some time before giving his answer, "He would look for an opportunity and try to escape before the other party is able to deal with him and force him into the trap."
"Correct. Yet what did Captain Akazawa do?" This time, his question directly tackled the situation at hand.
"He went into the trap and died." Hugh replied and finally started to think from the perspective at which Crown prince was looking at.
Prince Dante took another sip of his wine and continued to stay silent. After some time, Hugh asked him again, "But couldn't it also be because he knew that he couldn't get away from you?"
