As Ya lay on the ground, not moving at all in compliance with the command to submit to strangulation, she simply closed her eyes out of fear.
She did not know if Mr. Strangulation would be able to forcibly defeat the incoming enemies after one of his arms had been rendered useless by bullets…
But she was aware that the protection Mr. Strangulation was giving her must come at a price.
—In other words, she was dragging Mr. Strangulation down.
If he hadn't needed to save her, he wouldn't have been seriously injured in the process; and if he hadn't been injured, maybe he could have defeated those detestable guys with less effort, even though they were numerous. She also had to accept Mr. Strangulation's protection… otherwise, she might even be kidnapped and turned into a hostage, or be attacked, causing Mr. Strangulation to be distracted.
Ya thought hard while lying on the ground.
She had sent a request for help at the first opportunity.
