Chapter72- I don't want to die!

Just as I was deep in my thoughts, a soft ping echoed in the room.

Startled, I looked up to see a virtual window materialize in front of me, illuminating the brightly lit room with its soft glow. 

It displayed a message:

Quest: [Betrayal or Loyalty?]

Your companions are about to be in danger very soon.

What will you choose to do?

Will you aid them or flee?

[Note: Their adversary is insanely overpowered.]

Reward: Decides if you'll rescue them or not.

"Damn it!"

I carefully analyzed the quest and realized it's a test of my morality.

The quest warns that my companions will face danger, which means it's likely true.

The key question here is whether I should help them or not.

Initially, I would have chosen to help them, but considering the opponent is extremely powerful, I have no option but to prioritize my own safety over others and stay away from them.
