Kellensea is silent for a moment after hearing Ranma speak and try to convince her to stand down. Then, in a flat, quiet voice...
That's not an apology or begging for mercy or both. I can't let this go.
She continues standing there, in the same stance, even as Bakugo walks off. her voice recovers enough for her to actually speak clearly.
We find the exit. We get out. If we don't do it soon, I AM going to beat Bakugo to death. And you leave my party members out of this. If they were here, they would WANT me to do this. They'd have helped me. The first day here, the five of us would have killed all of you and been out by refusal to convict. And defeating the big bad or whatever? I did that. With Selvan. He was a spellcaster too. But I had HELP. To deal with someone like this, I need... more than I have. I'd need a spellcaster of my own, and a bunch of things from back home, some of which are exclusively government property, so I'd have to go break into a military base. I'm not taking on a challenge which is not reasonable to easy for someone of my skill-set, and taking on a would-be god with significant power already in their own demiplane? I'm good. I'm not that good yet. Tell me this Ranma. You say you don't want me to die. That's a lie, we both know it. If I were to kill someone right now, I'm sure you would be second in line to vote me to my death.
She pauses again, and then something comes to her mind, her voice tone shifts again, and she speaks again.
The host vanished. They're not around, they haven't stopped us from exploring. This is either some kind of trick, or the host is actively not watching us. That means, quite obviously, that the host couldn't tell who murdered who, if someone were to make a move right now. That's... interesting. Right?
After that statement (a total change of subject), and her abrupt shift in tone and apparent mood, she walks off, still holding the broken bit of piping and with her hand on her dagger's hilt.
>Get back to exploring around the outer ring of the area, where the void is.
