"Are you Theodore Griffith?!"

"!!!" Theo and the boy were shocked. The boy didn't expect Theo to come here. On the other hand, Theo was quite amused with the fact that the girl knew him. But since he was popular in the past, it wouldn't be weird if a little girl could know him.

Theo thought for a moment and nodded. "Yes. I'm Theodore Griffith."

Theo wanted to know the secret of how they managed to stay alive this whole time. After all, they shouldn't be able to fight against the monsters he had just killed.

Yet, even though they were enduring this harsh situation, they seemed to be healthy and unscathed.

"Are you... not a threat?!" The boy asked Theo while furrowing his eyebrows. He had heard about Theo, but he never saw his face due to his blind eyes.

"If you think I'm a threat, then I don't mind. Though, I personally come here not as your enemy." Theo said with a calm tone. It was fair if they doubted him after all.

"..." The boy paused for a moment before saying, "Then, you're not a threat..."

Theo was amused by the boy's way of talking. So, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you wish to leave this place?"

"Can we?" The girl's eyes flashed as if she had just seen hope.

"Yes." Theo nodded with a smile, assuring the girl.

"Isn't that great, Lyr?"

The boy frowned as if he was unsure about this. He asked Theo, "But there are threats everywhere. I don't know if you can bring us that easily."

"Lyr! You can't be rude!" Lydia hurriedly rebuked him, but Theo didn't mind about it. Instead, he asked, "You have been mentioning 'threat' this whole time. Do you sense something?"

"..." The boy didn't plan to answer that question, while the girl seemed to be overjoyed that she could meet Theo to the point she blurted everything out. "He has impressive hearing. He can hear everything around us. That's why we can—Mhp!"

Before she finished, the boy had covered his sister's mouth. However, it was too late.

Theo nodded his head and said, "I see. So, hearing huh..."

"..." The boy gritted his teeth and considered Theo a threat. But considering he could reach them before they could even run away, it was clear they had no chance to escape.

On the other hand, Theo smiled and said, "It seems that you have endured a lot in the past."

"..." The boy's body shook. Theo's voice and words felt so soothing.

Theo might have understood what it meant to have enhanced hearing. He had heard a lot of things from childhood, including how people thought about a blind child. So, he couldn't really trust the people around him. Only his sister didn't have any bad thoughts about him. She even argued with everyone that tried to look down on him.

That was why she was here with him. And Theo understood perfectly the suffering he endured this whole time.

"I'll say this again. If you consider me a threat, I'll leave. If you can believe me, then I'll do my best to help you." Theo smiled.

Surprisingly, the boy shouted, "What? You must be saving us because you think we're useful to you, right?!"

The boy had grown accustomed to finding people who had hidden intentions. When he said this, they would try to change the topic or answer half-heartedly, but it couldn't go past his ears.

This time, he was going to catch Theo's hidden intention.

But to his surprise, Theo didn't hesitate to admit it. "Yes. Though, I won't be saying you're useful to me. Instead, you have piqued my interest. That's the reason why I'm going to save you."

"Huh?!" The boy was stunned, never expecting this kind of answer. Even his sister was shocked to know that her idol was actually a guy like this.

However, the boy asked, "You're not afraid to admit it?"

"Why do I need to be afraid? Even if I'm not interested in you, I'm going to bring you two back after I've finished my objective in this place. Seeing how you two have survived for so long, I think waiting for a bit more won't be a problem for you, right?"

"..." The boy fell silent, not being able to rebuke him. Theo was different from anyone he had seen before. This might be the reason why he could say, "If that's the case, you can take my sister away. I don't need your help!"

"What?!" Lydia was shocked while Theo made a gentle smile. "Is it so hard for you to live like a burden? You are the reason why your sister is still alive right now."

"Eh?!" Lydia's body shook. She looked at her brother and realized what Theo had said earlier. It was true that Lydia was the one who did everything, from helping with his daily needs to searching for food. But the reason why they could survive this whole time was because he had warned her about the danger again and again. If not for his warning, she would have been eaten by the monsters.

That was why she never thought he was a burden. He was her savior. "Lyr, you—!"

"How do you know..." The boy took a step back. He never thought Theo would be able to read his mind.

Theo chuckled. "A wise man once said, 'A great listener hears one word but understands two."

"!!!" The boy gasped. Theo seemed to be telling him that he might have enhanced hearing, but he wasn't a good listener because he didn't understand her sister's feelings.

"That's why I'm going to ask you again..." Theo extended his hand. "I'm going to bring you away from here. At the very least, you two should have lived in a better place. If you reject me, I'm going to kidnap you. If you accept, I'm going to bring you peacefully. Which one will you choose?"

"..." There was no trace of lies in Theo's words. In fact, Theo had never lied this whole time. The boy gritted his teeth and decided, "The one where my sister won't get hurt."
