you won't see the inclusion with your naked eye at this carat weight.

pavilion 41.4

it depends on where the inclusion is. If it's on the table, it's possible you will see it. .70 is NOT small. Anyways, if you could post the pictures that'd be great. Do you at least have the certificate? That should show you where the inclusions are.

Did you also request ideal scope images?

I agree with dla that it's unlikely that you will be able to see the inclusion with your naked eye in this size and clarity grade. Of course there are always caveats, vision, tolerance, etc. Be sure that you understand the definition of eye clean. For most vendors it's about 1/2 an arms length or natural viewing distance, in natural day lighting, and always in the face up position. If you want to be 100% certain that you won't see an inclusion from any angle, including through the pavilion at x distance, then you need to be sure to clarify this with you gemologist.
