[That Hiiro doubles down on the disturbing statement, and even talks about "annihilating" his own family, is, of course, highly alarming. It sows doubt, causing Hiyori to rethink the whole reckless decision. Is he sheltering some sort of criminal? No one should sound so cheerful while using the word "annihilate." The word might be in Ibara's vocabularly, but that's hardly a ringing endorsement.
Then there's another part that grabs his attention, adding to his complete bewilderment. "Monarch.""We would not have a monarch." What, he wonders, does that mean? Does the annihilation of idols somehow connect to Japan's royal family? Could it be this homeless boy has ties to some sort of monarchy?
No, no, that wouldn't make one lick of sense!
There's a long silence after Hiiro finishes, followed by a sigh.]
... my, I have quite the problem child on my hands.
[He sounds tired. Although he visibly bristled with anger when Hiiro re-confirmed his intention to "annihilate" idols, all the fight has been sapped out of him now.]
I ought to scold you for threatening to destroy the same group that I belong to. That's no way at all to talk to your savior; I could have you thrown back on the street, you know.
[But he won't—not because he's gotten too attached, but because he's too benevolent. At times like these, his noble heart is both a blessing and a curse.]
What did you mean by "monarch"? First, you implied your brother is an idol—are you saying he's a monarch as well?
