Now, behind Ethan, there appeared a mysterious figure, behaving in a covert manner.
Ethan didn't dare to let his guard down for even a moment, remaining cautious as he observed the movements of this enigmatic person, trying to discern their intentions.
However, the mysterious individual didn't make any other moves.
They simply trailed behind Ethan, keeping their distance.
There was nothing more to their actions.
The mysterious person's behavior puzzled Ethan, leaving him uncertain of their motives.
Ethan refrained from taking any rash actions and continued as before, discreetly keeping an eye on the person while also scanning the surroundings for potential bait.
At this moment, Ethan didn't engage the mysterious person and deliberately maintained the illusion that he hadn't noticed them.
After walking for some time, Ethan sensed some activity in his vicinity.
Could it be that more people were approaching?
