Considering how their previous conversation went, the teasing motives of her remark was quick to be picked up on.
"Hmph. Well I certainly hope it never comes to thaโ . . .What was that last part?"
Cocking a brow once again.
Sweatdrop.
He was referring to the girl she spoke of. . .but he'll just let that go in an attempt to not insult her-.
"I see. Kyoko Kuremi, the detective. . .I shall remember that."
". . .Heh. Interesting words for someone young as you claim. . .but not unwise."
He'd let out a small chuckle beneath his breath, closing his eyes yet again before turning fully to face her.
"I do believe I failed to get your name, Ms. Detective. Care to share it with me?"
"Very well. I apologize if I upset you by jumping to conclusions on the matter. Those I considered close to me didn't give me much of a chance so. . .I suppose I developed a similar habit as a result."
Turning his head to face her yet again, even turning his body a bit this โ
". . .I see."
Turning away from her fully again and seeming to stare outward a bit, thinking to himself before nodding.
"Very well. I will accept these values of yours under those circumstances. . ."

"Hmph. Perhaps not. But what, may I ask, was the fate of this collegue of yours? Did things carry on as normal once you decided to put your ideals on the line against their own?"
Turning his head, glancing back at her from over his shoulder.
"Tch. As I suspected. You're all the same. Speak of righteousness but shun and beat those who are willing to take matters into their own hands."
Turning from her now, seeming to have lost some respect for the woman.
"That so? And how did you and your other collegues treat this. .extreme-viewed woman you refer to?"
Staring down at her, eyes narrowing once more as he awaited her response.
"Hmph. No need for apologies. They're simply too cowardly to accept that the wicked must be punished by wicked means. Fire with fire."
Grumbling a bit in annoyance. Not at her, but at his equals. Jupitermon especially.
Snickering in amusement.
"You are close but still misinformed. I am not apart of those known as the Olympos XII. They would not have me join. The rest accurate however."
