Bab 551: Chapter 551 – Quitting

"And you think that's a good idea… why?"

A middle-aged man in expensive red robes was currently looking at a younger man wearing cheaper-looking grey robes.

"I just want to be careful, sir," the younger man said with nervousness.

The older man sighed. "Boy, do you have any idea how much money it costs to deactivate and activate the barrier?"

The younger man looked with uncertainty at the ground. "I don't know, sir, but I think carelessness can lead to worse outcomes."

"Carelessness?" the older man repeated with a raised brow. "There is a difference between being careful and being paranoid. Checking the surroundings for beasts while going through a forest is careful. Buying a grade five mobile deflection barrier for a stroll through your garden is paranoia."

The younger man looked uncomfortable. "But, sir, what about the Lenner Family?"

"They died. So?" The older man asked.
