It does make some sense, he supposes. For all their power, neither he nor Jade would prefer to be on the front lines. They would both prefer to avoid fighting, specifically because they're so powerful that it's going to attract attention if they do. Though that's probably less of a worry, here.

"We might go with them sometimes, then," he says. He'll have to bring it up with Jade, but Asch doesn't think the objections will be real objections. Only the token ones that are part and parcel of Jade.
