Hill glanced at Russell, who was making a resolved decision over there, and softly asked, "Russell, if you encounter a poor soul like Delphus, what would you do?"
Russell hesitated a bit, but firmly spoke, "His misery is not because of me.
I pity his fate, but I would never let off anyone who dares to target me because of his tragic situation.
Anyone who can do this to me and get away unscathed can only be an enemy I can't kill."
Hill smiled with satisfaction, "Very good."
Russell gently exhaled... He didn't want to lie to his teacher but also didn't want the teacher to think he was not kind enough.
Fortunately, their teacher's kindness had its limits, quite different from those kind souls in legendary stories he's read.
It's fine not to harm others proactively, but sacrificing oneself to save someone else is something that Russell would never do.
