章 49: Ch 49: The right thing to do- part 2

"This is the right thing to do. To protect the common and weak is the privilege of the nobility. I am just keeping my oath and ensuring no harm to those I love."

This answer sounded as if it had been revised from a test book and spoken in a way that had been taught to this kid.

Even as Daidus Lukewater spoke, Layla could see the inner turmoil in his eyes, growing with each passing moment.

"I see! So that is what you think, huh? I don't believe indulging someone like you is a way to protect them. But we have different core values. 

The bottom point is, I don't want to waste my time here, so I would have to ask you to leave me alone politely."

Layla spoke softly as she declined the invitation.

She felt she would have more trouble if she teamed up with someone.

The more people their group had, the more enticing it would look as a target. It would also incentivize the other, stronger people to team up.
