"No," said Syd.

Yumi sneered coldly. "You'll keep your mouth shut, then. For going against my orders, you shall offer up your life."

The crowd was shocked.

Syd put his forehead to the ground, before straightening up and drawing his sword.

Beany interjected immediately, "Madam President, we need our men more than ever now. Punishing Syd will only weaken our forces further. Please forgive him for now."

"Please forgive Syd Gardner, Madam President." The crowd knelt on the ground, begging for Yumi's forgiveness.

Yumi said in an icy tone, "He went against my orders and provoked my guest of honor. I see no reason to forgive him."

"Please, Madam!" Beany fell to her knees, tearing up as she begged on Syd's behalf.
