suspicious

However, the suspicious look from Damian lasted only a moment. At Justin's seemingly innocent expression, Damian soon nodded.

"Well, if it's about medical care, it benefits not only the civilians but also the pioneers. So, I understand."

"…That's not wrong, but it would be nice if you could say it's for both the civilians and the pioneers. The way you said it makes it sound like I'm just looking for a doctor for the pioneers and taking care of the civilians as an afterthought."

Words have subtle differences depending on how they're said, but Damian ignored Justin's comment and shifted his gaze behind him.

"I'll look for a doctor, but for now, come inside. I'll show you to some accommodations as if you were a guest."

"I'd appreciate that. If possible, I'd also like a place for Fafnir to stay."
