Thinking about it now, the "backing" he had in the past barely counted.
The Alliance.
The commander who had given him Bone Protector and Wind Carnage Requiem.
At the time, it had felt significant.
But after arriving in Tristan?
Adam could tell the truth.
That commander had only been at the Profound Lord Realm.
Which, from what he had seen recently…
Wasn't anything special.
Remedy continued.
"The Family definitely investigated you."
Adam nodded slightly.
That part was true.
When Ross came for him earlier, the agent had recited details about Adam's entire background.
At the time, it felt like intimidation.
Now he understood.
It had been confirmation.
They had already checked.
Remedy folded her arms.
"But now the situation is different."
"You have a Saint backing you."
"And you're publicly recognized as a Saint's disciple."
Her eyes sharpened slightly.
"They won't act as brazenly as before."
Adam tilted his head.
"Is it really that simple?"
