Kazuo's stony gaze fell upon Minako as she spoke, from what he knew Minako was used to a life of luxury. Honestly, Kazuo despised her type- but her words didn't fall upon deaf ears as he acknowledged her observation as being rather reasonable. "Yes." Kazuo trailed off as he thought about the girl's words, besides her flaunting and, what Kazuo found to be a rather strange reason to not want to die. Kazuo's posture remained stiff and he clicked his tongue, "Best case scenario, nobody will need to die. However, you must recognize your responsibility to do what needs to be done when the time comes." the boy said with narrowed eyes before shrugging, "With modern technology, I'm sure we can find another way to close the gate. In the mean time, we'll just have to deal with whatever comes out of it." After Trent spoke, Kazuo let out a low sigh- why was this group so worried about the government. In any case, they were individually strong enough to defeat the military, so it wasn't a big deal. Suddenly, Kazuo got a bad feeling- his cold gaze gaze swept the area for potential threats before he furrowed his brows and closed his eyes. When the image flashed before Kazuo he muttered a curse and instantly regretted letting Ludovica leave on her own. The boy ground his teeth uneasily? Why would they take her? Kazuo knew to be careful, his retailed on the inside warned that the military would be involved if they didn't cooperate. But they were cooperating, weren't they?
Kazuo let out a long sigh, as he processed what to do next. He wasn't prepared for the military to move so quickly, should he tell the other's. They were tired, but still hostile. Kazuo's eyes dropped to the floor, perhaps he could use this to test the others. Unable to see their abilities before, the military would be a good test of strength for the motley crew, assuming they'd even take action. He'd also be able to figure out their individual personalities more, seeing as some of the kids before him had quite a mysterious past. "Morgana's holder has been captured and taken into the military's custody." Kazuo spoke suddenly and with little emotion, "They likely plan to seize us in order to restrain us before communications take place." the boy added as he glanced down at the group. "The military is unpredictable, whoever had the upper hand now will undoubtedly have control of the future situation." Kazuo added before pursing his lips. That was sort of a strange thing to say, he doubted the others really cared but about that strategical placement of authority, he'd have to appeal to them in another way. "Regardless of how well you know Ludovica, she helped you defeat that demon and now she is in trouble. Tell me, shall we help her?" Kazuo asked with raised brows and a hardly noticeable smirk.
