The other hunter dropped the barrier and marched forward, face stern. "Do you even realize what you just did? Tell me, why did you attack?"
Raito glanced at him but quickly turned his eyes away. "No reason. I just wanted to enter the dungeon. You were in my way."
I can't tell them about Greed… about my skill, Raito thought, swallowing hard.
The hunter the scowled and reached for him. "Since you've calmed down, we'll have to arrest you—"
"No, it's fine. Leave him," Jiro interrupted, stepping forward.
The hunter frowned. "Leave him? After what he—"
Jiro raised a hand. His eyes locked on Raito, sharp and curious. "I don't know what's going on with you, but I'll say this… you impressed me. For someone your age, to fight me on equal footing, even for a moment—that takes strength."
Jiro exhaled, his voice dropping low so only Raito could hear.
