"You say, you wanna know the way to hack Chrono's documentation and remove the data of their victims?"
"True." Daphne nods. Yes, she just gets the idea so suddenly, after finding that Payneth is so skillful in hacking Chrono's data and adding fake news even to their main column. She thus dares to make a wish; that this beautiful-but-stern woman would be able to help Stairmount's parents escape from Chrono's clutches, and hence Stairmount would no longer have to carry out this cursed and dangerous mission. And in the end, he can marry her and they live together in peace, forever.
"For what reason?"
"I... don't really like Chrono..."
"Why?"

Payneth's eyes gaze sharply, filled with eagerness to quest. Daphne gulps. It turns out, to achieve this hope, it is not as easy as she thought. Of course, she can't tell Payneth about Stairmount and the dilemma he is facing. First, Stairmount is Chrono member, and she is sure that Payneth won't get a good impression of him. Second, Stairmount is very famous these days thanks to their despicable propaganda, so she fears that any wrongdoing will plunge Stairmount into another kind of danger. And the third, the most important. Stairmount entrusts all of this matter only to her, he doesn't even tell his parents. So, how can she betray Stairmount's trust, just to realize her wish, while the wish itself would not necessarily come true, she only knows this woman since a few days ago, after all. Moreover, Payneth is seemingly not the type that can open up easily. Her suspicious gaze even arises Daphne's anxious feelings. She thus decides to say, " ... sorry, I am only curious, because from what I know, Chrono is a super-elite organization, they surely have the best safety and security systems to block any kind of breakers, yet you manage to break their systems... I am just curious, nothing else. Sorry to interrupt your time. Excuse me."

As Daphne turns around and is about to walk away, Payneth continues, "Even though I say Chrono is afraid of me and I can beat them, but after all, they're a world-class elite organization - they can even be categorized as the most powerful organization all over the Planet. We can't mess with them, really. And what I did earlier, measured on their scale, is just a very minor crime, that can be categorized as the prank of a mediocre programmer. So, it's not that I am skillful, but because it's not a significant nuisance for them, they won't give high-level security for that. While the topic you ask, is categorized in a bigger scale. That's why I ask, why do you want to do that? Then, who is their victim whose data you want to eliminate, that is also an important question. The higher the alert scale is embedded in the victim, the more difficult it will be to be actualized."
Daphne turns her body, faces Payneth again. While Payneth is staring deeply into Daphne's eyes.
"Who is the victim whose data you want to remove from Chrono, and why do you want to do it?" Payneth asks.
Daphne remains silent, for a long time. She is looking for the most suitable answer for that.
"I... am a refugee from Pluto... but I am a Neptunian. When I was in Pluto, I was almost killed by Pluto's military soldiers who conspired with Chrono, but I managed to escape. But I am afraid that Chrono has entered my data as well as my mother's into their files, so I want to get the data of my mom's and mine out of there."
Unexpectedly, a new look appears on Payneth's previously stern and cold face - sympathy. "Oh, so you are the ethnic Neptunian who is being trapped in the cunning strategy of Jupiter and Nature Continent as the genocide victim, so as to bring down Neptune's name in global perspectives?"
Daphne gets stunned. "Eh, is that what they really want by genociding us?!"
Payneth sighs. "It's quite cold here. If you have time, please come to my house. There we can have chatting by enjoying hot coffee."
