Not long after, Leoz and the others had finished their job. They didn't bother with the town's people and immediately came toward here. When they saw Alex was in Anna's embrace. They silently walked away and spread out to protect the area.

He didn't know why, but a sentence was echoing in his mind. It said, 'It is alright to stumble and fall, but make sure to stand up and pick your weapon again.'
He recalled his previous experiences, from the earth to here. He ended up agreeing with those words. He then looked at Anna and smiled. "Sorry, I made you worry."
Anna smiled. "Young Master, you don't need to shoulder everything by yourself. You are not alone. You have all of us. Please rely on us. We prefer to let others die than see you die. You might feel it is absurd, but it is our purpose.
