Anning followed the Captain onto the viewing platform.
The expression on Lafayette's face was indeed foul.
It was understandable, this was what they call "merits that outshine the master".
Though Anning was not one of Lafayette's subordinates.
Lafayette: "Quite the performance, I should have known from that opera, it was your doing."
Anning: ??
Lafayette: "Stop pretending, the recently performed opera 'Storming of the Bastille', you instigated its creation, didn't you?"
Anning: "I don't know, is there such an opera?"
Lafayette snorted but did not continue on the subject and changed the topic: "Come, let's raise the tricolor flag of freedom together. According to the National Assembly's resolution, starting today, this is our national flag."
Anning let out an "Oh", and then followed behind Lafayette.
