On the other side, no matter how much of a fuss this matter caused online, Luo Zhen paid it no attention.
He simply had lunch with Kirito and Naoha, who could no longer log in with peace of mind that day, telling them not to worry and reassuring them. After that, he answered calls from one friend after another, offering reassurance time and again, before finally preparing to log into GGO.
During that time, Kikuoka Seijiro also called and said he could prepare a place for Luo Zhen to log in and guarantee his safety, but Luo Zhen refused outright.
"I only feel unsafe if my body is watched over under your noses."
Luo Zhen didn't dare guarantee that Kikuoka Seijiro—or even the country—wouldn't do something to him once he lost the ability to resist.
From beginning to end, they only cared about Luo Zhen's mysteries and the methods he possessed in other areas. They weren't truly close enough to Luo Zhen to entrust themselves to each other.
Although Luo Zhen did have ways to make them unable to move against him, and if they did act against him, they would certainly suffer the consequences—being cursed, for example—that was ultimately no big deal.
After all, even if they really wanted to act against him, they might not do it personally. They could send scapegoats or order someone else to do it. By then, even if those people met with misfortune, it would have nothing to do with them.
Considering this, Luo Zhen naturally couldn't be bothered to play mind games with them. A direct refusal was enough.
As for the question of safety, with Yutu protecting him, what did Luo Zhen have to fear?
As for Jinwu, just like before, Luo Zhen had sent it to protect Asuna.
