Since I decided not to show them all my cards, there are many things that I can't reveal to them, not even about those assassins. If I told them about them, then it would mean I am strong enough to stand against a Tier-2 awakened, and that was months ago. Then that means I am even stronger now.
Whatever I tried to hide would come out if that was revealed. It would be best if my parents didn't know about the assassins and those elders thought that I never met the assassins and they died in the hands of some monsters in the wild.
It was quite possible for that to happen. Many die in those forests.
