Day CCCIII, part III

Walking thru the city center I kept thinking about Hatta. Did he really get this much stronger? Well, he had the means for sure, just until now wasn't really using them for his own benefit, but maybe fear of Blue made him change his mind.

People around were getting stronger, catching up to me. Some probably even passed me. I didn't really care as long as nobody was trying to arm those around me, but with each person, I couldn't deal with, the risk grew. Fortunately, a lot of those strong individuals were good people in my eyes. Aisha, Nobuo, Will, Ilja, and Boris... 

Part of me was happy with how things were going. Multiple people of equal strength meant nobody could do as he or she pleased. It was a  great safeguard. The other part was afraid of losing control.
