Alone isn't necessarily better. I don't know what's worse, alone or the guilds, but I don't want to be stay in an enchanted hotel without a reason. And you can't trust foster parents at all.
[ Nico is fine with sleeping in fields in warmer climates and possibly stealing food, because what would he even do for a job? He has no idea. ]
What about the school thing? They said that all the kids have to go to prove that we can use our powers. If I just - don't. What happens?
The key thing is to just keep your head down after you go off on your own. Like me and my best friend wear masks when doing hero things and using our powers, so nobody knows our civilian IDs and shows up at our front door.
And in the day to day, we just tell everyone he's a very young-looking 18.
[Kon can pass without any lies. It's the face scruff. ]
If you want to avoid the school, they don't go out of their way to seek people out so you mostly just have to drop off the radar and mask up when using powers publicly for plausible deniability.
I'm not gonna lie, it's not easy, especially on the job front, but if something about the whole guild and school thing rubs you the wrong way it's not impossible. And there are a few of us out here. Maybe you can find a roomie. It's easier to get by when you're sharing a place.
[ There's something in the way he says it that tips his hand - he has done what his world would call hero stuff. However, there's quite a gap between their definitions. ]
Why would a hero wear a mask? Wouldn't it restrict your vision in battle?
[ But that's the information that Nico has been looking for. ]
So no one's going to come after me if I rough it. They're not coming after you and your friend, and you're barely hiding. And I've been using this phone, and not a single monster's come after me.
