Act 49 The Long Road, Fragments of the Past III
Others around them seemed to have noticed something unusual between the two of them and stopped to look at them. Nymesis felt Brando's gaze and replied quietly: "I once heard someone talk about the beautiful scenery of the shining sea——"
"Have you ever heard someone say——?"
"Yes." Nymesis nodded. She seemed to no longer intend to speak. She took off her cloak and hung it on the back of the chair. She turned around and sat upright as a knight.
Brando looked at her and stopped asking - but he knew that this was impossible! He had seen such a scene before, with vast expanse of blue waves, and the sunlight cast white-golden sections on the sea.

He didn’t need to say it. In fact, Brando also knew it, but he just deliberately tricked the other party’s words. What people say unconsciously is often the most authentic and credible: “Since you understand the situation around you so well, then what do you say? How about we come hunting at this time of year?”
"Sir, you have chosen the time very well. After the middle of the Moon of Flowing Fire, the forest in the north will get a little warmer, and in the next two months it will quickly enter the cold winter.
