I raised my gaze to look at Brother Zepar. He was shaking his head.
“Do you think I would shift the blame onto an advisor? The one who made the decision is me.”
Of course, I utilized Brother Zepar knowing that he wasn’t that type of individual.
If it had been Brother Beleth, he would have happily said, ‘Well, the one who gave the advice should naturally bear the responsibility’, and fled. If anything, he would probably laugh at my failure. This would be troubling for me, hence why I didn’t choose him. In this instance, I required Brother Zepar and his somewhat old-fashioned and noble nature.
“Of course not. However, It is my duty to take responsibility—.”
“Now, before you talk about responsibility, you should focus on finding a solution. Coming up with a good plan to resolve this matter is the true way to take responsibility.”
