"Mark and I will go to the 'red zone' and get at least one freshly killed monster."
"What?!" Mark exclaimed.
Devon looked at Mark. Wasn't this the best thing to do? He was sure Mark would want nothing but the best for Alice but why was he so shocked?
Ah, he quickly realized that Mark was not the kind of Awakened who fought monsters. He was bad at it and even when his stats and class were high, he could not even think of taking on a monster.
But... Wasn't it time to break out of that chain? How did he plan to protect Alice in the future if he could not even utilize his own power?
'Protect? That's so arrogant of me.' Devon thought. 'The only one doing the protecting would be Alice. The rest of us would just be a burden. But... It doesn't mean we have to be weak and useless. If we can't even watch our backs and rely on Alice to do most of the work, what does that make us?'
