Instantly, the guard's eyes flashed red, and he moved closer to the courier. It drew his sword from its sheath, preparing to finish off Mr. Courier, who was lying on the ground.
"The threat... must be eliminated."
"Wait, wait." Mr Courier quickly crawled backward, trying to distance himself from the officer. "This is a misunderstanding. I never intended to—"
'Cling!'
"Mr. Courier, are you okay?"
"Sh-Shaan?" Mr. Courier slowly opened his eyes. "What are you doing? You shouldn't have done this. They'll see you as a threat now and-"
"No. We won't let you be in danger," Shaan said, pushing the guard away with all his strength.
"Yes, I agree with Shaan." Chelsie nodded. "We'll all protect you, Mr. Courier."
"… Besides, this guard was the one who started the attack, so we're not at fault at all."
