"As I've said, who knows."

Instead of putting up long reasoning to his own statement, Ace leashed out very little of his emotion. He still thought that this world was somewhat related to his, where monsters roamed around freely. That, and he was always the most cautious man.

He didn't really expect Maron to follow him all that much, but if she did, he had nothing against him. He was relieved, even. You could never have enough of someone who would protect your back, after all. And Maron did so, cue the small sigh of relief from Ace, even though it was rather hard to notice.
