Ellen was slightly taken aback by his question.
Eric's eyes were chillingly cold as he stated word by word, "Even if she's willing to go with you, you can't protect her. You can't even protect yourself, can you?"
Even the most talented person, after more than ten years of neglect, will become ordinary.
Eric was speaking the truth.
Ellen was trembling with anger, but she couldn't refute.
After a moment, she took a deep breath and questioned, "And what about you? Can you protect yourself and her? What have you done for her?!"
Eric lowered his eyes and suddenly said, "After you disappeared, she and I searched for you for eight whole years."
Ellen shuddered violently.
"I couldn't access the mission you were on back then, nor did I know what you went to do. I only knew that the person who left with you was dead, and your mission was declared 'mission failed' by the master."
