Let alone the Resistance Army duo, even Chen was taken aback. In truth, he hadn't spent much time around Theron at all and only had a small understanding of his personality.
That said, one didn't need to have a full grasp on a man's personality to know that every single one of them would have a bottom line they didn't allow to be crossed.
Chen himself admired Ayame, but it was quite clear that his gaze was nothing like the two Resistance Army members. That said, by the same metric, as powerful as Chen's background was, the background of these two was more… sensitive.
Their families might not necessarily be more powerful than the Shonagh, but they were at least on the same level. And because they had already joined the army whereas Chen hadn't, their overall status was higher. Depending on who their superiors in the Resistance Army were, it could be very troublesome to deal with them.
Unfortunately, that was a question Chen happened to have the answer to, and it wasn't good.
