“To be honest.”
In the deep darkness where it was hard to see even an inch ahead.
A low, subdued male voice echoed slowly.
The voice contained various emotions.
Regret, bitterness, sadness.
It was inevitable.

He didn’t wait and continued to say what he had to say.
“When the operation we prepared this time fails, the war is essentially over. What we’re doing now is just forcibly delaying it.”

Perhaps disappointed by the continuous silence of the other party.
The man sighed faintly.
Hidden in the darkness, it wasn’t visible, but he was probably shaking his head.
“Even if we can’t be first, we can be second. We need to abandon ships with no hope quickly.”

It was a slender female voice.
A cold voice, with a hint of indifference, said.
“······What do you want to do?”
