Xin Feng simply accepted the deal between himself and Akio. It wasn't a bad offer, and although he could easily make an excuse thanks to the pitiful situation he was in, he found it better if someone else would do the hard work for him instead.
"So, tell me little Akio… How is it possible for you to go out of this safe zone and not get killed by the vile curses that lingers almost everywhere?"
"This necklace! Everyone gets it the moment they are born! It wards off any weak curses!"
"What about the strong ones?"
"The strong ones? Have you been living in a cave?! Not that that's possible. I've heard a group of children were found with their corpses completely dried. They wanted to act cool and play far away from their village without a necklace. Stupid children!"
"Uhm… You still haven't answered my question."
