For a brief moment, anger flickered across Ichiro's face. He wasn't one for showing his emotions, but it was hard to avoid. Vega's son was a godling and he didn't have the honor to at least do the deed himself. Ichiro had - it had been his friend, but he had killed him. His brother had submitted himself for his death sentence. Ichiro had been his second and he had been honored to cut off his head.
But the moment passed and Ichiro regained control of his emotions. Cross and Stephan were right. They couldn't do this now. They needed to be smart about this.
"Agreed. We should evaluate their schedules and wait for a good moment. Patience is our friend here."
He nodded at Stephan as he suggested staying and watching. Trying to get someone on staff would be a good idea, but their guard was up. No doubt that Vega would be wary of anyone new joining his staff and had the resources to investigate them thoroughly. "Be careful. He'll be prepared for something like that. It was his job as Atharim to spy - and spies see lies and deception everywhere."
It wasn't a flat out refusal, just a warning to be cautious.
