"Look.." Jeff began to respond back to Vale's statements calmly letting out a slight sigh in the process. "I get it, that guy's a giant monster with incredible power who didn't even have to put in any effort to stomp literally everything into the ground. Don't worry I'm not stupid enough to go charging in and trying to defeat him the way I am now. I just want to get stronger and find a place where I can help others from other problems in the process. Perhaps a guild of sorts I could join to aid with that and a workshop where I can begin working on inventions once again. Those sorts of things."

Jeff then paused when Vale mentioned the elsewhere bit. "What do you mean by that?"

Part of him feared the possibility of being attacked and thus prepared himself to blow dirt back up into the air if he this man decided to charge him with an attack.
