When Brian mentioned blaming the Federation, he was specifically referring to their failure to stop and apprehend the culprits before the situation escalated to this point.
Being a man of few words, he didn't bother explaining further, leaving Michael to interpret his meaning on his own.
On Michael's side, his emotions grew more tangled as he observed the growing crowd on the streets.
What frustrated him most was how, despite the evident panic, people seemed more focused on recording the spectacle and posting it online.
These people clearly had no grasp of the imminent danger they faced, having been so heavily sheltered by the Federation.
Their survival instincts were practically nonexistent—worse than those of a chicken, Michael thought grimly.
Not long ago, he had been just like them.
Only after becoming a supernatural did he finally see a crack with his own eyes.
