#Chapter14
The meeting is over, and Leona is now outside. She is standing there looking at the view of the Kingdom.
Val approaches her.
/"Leon?/" he says with a bitter voice.
/"Yes?/" she answers back.
/"I-- I’m really sorry for what happened. You told me to back off, but I let my hate to get the better of me. Josh is dead because of me./"
Leona is now looking at him. She can see his remorse, but she is enraged for what he did.
/"You know, after we talked to the airship I thought you would be okay following my orders. But it seems you have a big complex about it. If you had just followed my order.. That day I lost more than Josh. I lost half my people. Yes, I didn’t get along with most of them but still I had a responsibility to them. You had a responsibility and you only thought of yourself./"
Val accepts whatever it is to come. He knows what he did was selfish.
/"You are right so, punish me./"
