Hearing this, Hell's Lord stood quietly for a moment and then walked to the back of the mountain. What's she been doing without his help? Having known her for so long, he should have known already that she was such a tenacious person. She handled the matters on hand with her own strength and carried them on her shoulders. Since this being the case, it's also alright for him to stand watching by her side.
Also, the world is so big, the number of people stronger than her is far too many. She was a person who wanted to go out of the ninth-grade small country. It was impossible for him to protect her all the time. If he always protected her, he was afraid that she would suffer more hardships in the future.
With these thoughts revolving in his mind, Hell's Lord pursed his thin lips and his dark eyes turned sombre. He was unable to express this disconcerting feeling.
