'If this was all a setup, then he and the Silencers were just pawns from the very beginning!'
'The Grand Governor knew everything, yet for the sake of the bigger picture, he still chose to stand by and watch coldly as the Silencers Battle Group sacrificed themselves.'
Or perhaps,
'on the dark front lines of intelligence, the Silencers who fought against the Infiltrator Council were nothing more than bait used by that great man to lure out a bigger fish.'
'Even...'
'the decapitation mission to infiltrate Savenxis World served the same purpose.'
At this thought, Urus clenched his fists. 'Was he enraged? No... As an Imperial Knight, serving the Empire was his honor, but it felt as if a stone was lodged in his chest.'
It was suffocating him, making it hard to breathe.
He had heard about that Grand Governor's methods back when he was in the Seventh Group Army. He didn't care at first, but now, the same fate had befallen him and the Silencers.
He could only remain silent.
