"Although this is a rather unexpected gain, I should not let my guard down," the bearer of those sinister eyes urged internally. "That tower-shaped weapon probably has its own consciousness, judging from its attack power. I still remember that sonic attack that almost took my life…
"All things considered, the little girl's level is so low that I doubt that she has the ability to control the weapon or even successfully awaken its consciousness, fortunately for me.
"Nevertheless, this also means that I must try my best to conceal my true power level and control the energy I release to levels that do not exceed the little girl's. Otherwise, I may risk awakening the weapon's consciousness or even trigger a defense mechanism by accident…"
This internal reminder was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the earlier excitement on the mysterious person's face and replacing it with a serious expression.
