"Huh? It's not you then who did it?"
Alex who was contemplating whether to take that ring or now stopped as he asked her in quiet and utter confusion.
He was believing it was Rebbeca herself do this as was just kinda making excuses about her thugs doing that thing.
After all, Rebbeca is the heroine with the Ancient Bloodline along with the too broken superpower of the time.
If Rebbeca takes the action then yeah, Jake can lose after all being bait protagonist not have that thick plot armour and it's be honest Rebbeca is broken as fuck.
She kidnapped him in front of the 2 strong S-Rank, 2 peak A-Rank, while assassins like Rita were around him, even two outliers like Black and White without even others finding out.
There is a reason why the original author completely ignored that as with her around Jake's, the protagonist of the plot did not have anything to worry about, so there is no false sense of danger.
