"You've been through a lot, little guy…" Ethan reached out and gently ruffled Kaiin's soft hair, a faint, apologetic smile tugging at his lips. At the same time, though, his mind was already shifting gears—pushing the plan to conquer the Dungeon up a few notches on his priority list.
Because judging from the current situation…
The only place where little Kaiin could grow freely and get stronger…
Was probably the Dungeon.
First off, the Dungeon was vast and sparsely populated—perfect for keeping secrets under wraps. It was crawling with resource nodes and wild units, making it an ideal environment for early-stage leveling and development.
Second, even if someone did stumble upon Kaiin, odds were it'd be someone from the Dungeon faction. And if that happened, well… the consequences wouldn't be nearly as bad or complicated.
For one, the Dungeon folks weren't the type to go snooping around the Light Alliance, let alone the heavily fortified Tower faction.
