The Second Strongest System [Part 3]

Thirteen stared at the approaching Monster Army with a calm expression on his face.

Lux was sure that the moment these Monsters reached them, the young man wouldn't be able to survive no matter what tricks he used in battle.

He was prepared to take Thirteen away by force if he had to because he didn't want to see the young man die, knowing that he could do something to prevent it.

While he was deep in thought, the teenage boy spoke unhurriedly, breaking him out of his thoughts.

"More often than not, there are times when we can't rely on anyone but ourselves to do things right," Thirteen stated. "Each of us has our own battles to fight, like the Monster Army that is headed toward me right now. With your current strength, you can wipe them all out just as easily as raising a hand."

Thirteen then turned to face Lux. 

His eyes were as calm as the surface of a still lake, unperturbed by what was happening in his surroundings.
