Capítulo 882: Within the Crack (8)
To be honest, Ruth sometimes wondered how Jonas Nolan managed to become rank 7 with such poor fighting awareness.
He seemed to have been living under the protection of his family for his entire life.
No matter whether it was in this world or in that world, it was the same.
Swoosh! Bang!
Seeing a rank 7 flying magic beasts rushing towards them, Ruth immediately drew her bow and shot it down.
*screech*
The rank 7 flying magic beast was unconvinced and tried to move once more, but something stabbed it from below and the magic beast fell to the ground.
Ruth raised her head and saw that Riya was still busy dealing with the rest of the rank 7 flying magic beasts. There were only a few left and soon, she would finish the battle and return to clean up the mess.
“Thankfully you’re here, Sister Ruth.” Jonas Nolan looked relieved when he saw the fallen rank 7 flying magic beasts in the distance.
“It’s Riya who killed it.”
“But you’re the one who protected me.” Jonas Nolan grinned.
Ruth rolled her eyes and asked bluntly, “How did you protect yourself when you’re alone? Does your family members always protect you wherever you go?”
“Of course not!” Jonas Nolan retorted immediately.
How could his family member be so idle that they could follow him everywhere?
They also have things that they had things that they had to do.
“But your awareness is really low,” Ruth said with a frown. Among the returnees whom she had met so far, Jonas Nolan was definitely the one with the worst battle awareness. Even when there were people around him, he didn’t put up his guard and seemed to be defenseless.
Back in City J Base, Dina has always been on guard against other people. She might look relaxed, but the subtle movements and body language conveyed that she was actually on high alert.
If there were anyone who made unnecessary move, Dina would attack without hesitation.
This was the state of someone who had been on the battlefield for a long period of time and had to defend against the people there.
Ruth herself had fought on the so called battlefield for the sake of resources and also fighting against countless magic beasts. When they were in the wilderness, there were many magic beasts that might kill them if they were not careful.
So everyone needed to have strong awareness.
Otherwise, what awaited them would be nothing more than their own demise.
But Jonas Nolan was the opposite of what the people whom Ruth had met before. Even Samuel and Riya were still on guard. Samuel was obvious because of his position while Riya was a rune master who usually didn’t fight much on the frontline.
Yet, the two of them were obviously battle hardened.
“I’m not letting down my guard completely in front of strangers,” Jonas Nolan explained with a frown. “It’s only because I trust you that I’m more relaxed, Sister Ruth.”
