"So… what are you doing here?" Eric asked while munching an energy bar.
"Can't I worry about my best friend?" Auric said with a cheeky smile.
"I'm thankful that you brought me all this, but I don't think we're best friends," Eric snorted. "Besides, you're not someone who will check on me just because of this. So, out with it already."
"…" Auric scratched the back of his head, wondering if discussing the problem with him was a good idea. Eric hadn't been targeted after all.
But if withholding this information left Eric unprepared, he might regret it later.
So, Auric decided to reveal it. "Simon might come for your life."
Eric's mouth stopped moving. He stared at Auric for a whole minute before he said, "Has he targeted you?"
"Yeah. I managed to take care of it, but looking back, you were the previous direct competition, so he might come for you. If not for you, he might come for your parents."
Eric frowned. "What about your parents?"
