Erick stared at Han's retreating figure, unable to comprehend what he meant by what he had just said. Still, Zephyr was indeed a newly awakened Esper who had yet to undergo proper training. Ultimately, he turned his attention toward Zephyr.
"How did you get here?"
Zephyr finally lifted his face reluctantly from Lucien's shoulder, although his arms had secretly wrapped around his waist. He glanced in Erick's direction indifferently.
"The same way you all did."
Erick felt uncomfortable under his indifferent gaze. He muttered angrily.
"The Awakened Association is becoming more lawless by the day. How could they send you here after I told them not to?"
Zephyr's eyes turned cold.
He heard what Erick had just said.
"Erick, I'm not as helpless as you think. I never asked for your protection. How about you stop deciding what I can and can't do?"
Erick felt powerless before him.
"I did it for your own good."
