"What ... happened to my father, Xion?" asked Emma again. She bit her lip, trying to hold back her tears.
Finally, Xion was forced to tell Emma what had happened to her father. He couldn't hide the information, even if he wanted to. He swallowed hard and spoke in a sorrowful voice.
"Your father, General Kaoshin Stardust, has passed away."
Emma had guessed that was what happened. She bit her lip even harder because tears had streamed down her cheeks. She was still trying to stop herself from crying, but it was so hard.
At this time, she had to think clearly. She must be able to do something.
"Then .. where's Haoran?" asked Emma, trying to make herself sound calm. She must be able to gather as much information as possible to make a decision.
