lmfao they did a good job naming that asshole "Chaz"
I legit thought Eve was gonna kill that fucker, I'm actually surprised he didn't retaliate since they've hinted that he's not as innocent/"dumb" as he's pretending to be
I wonder if the guide will try to hurt Adam and that's when Eve goes berserk...

    No. He's innocent but not dumb. And his main reason for existing is protecting humans. He can't retaliate unless humans are actively harming other humans like in the bank. The whole point of the manhwa is that he doesn't have free will are you dense?

    What chapter did they explicitly say the Espers have absolutely no free will? They're shown as being obedient and somewhat inhuman, almost without emotion, and they're definitely conditioned into thinking they serve humanity (or it could be potentially a side effect of having the genetics of the angel that came to save humanity/an inborn desire to protect humans),
    You should probbly go back and read the bank scene bc Adam explicitly says "the moment an organism exhibits aggression towards him" Eve will retaliate using his powers, no humans were hurt except for Eve himself. However they did attempt to hurt Adam, which is implied to be what caused Eve to use his powers.
    Given that two things have been established here explicitly: that Eve will defend Adam by using his powers, and that Eve will defend himself using his powers, there's a possibility that he could have hurt the guide for hurting him. And IF that guide fights back/hurts Adam, Eve could possibly attempt to use his powers again. I'm not saying that definitely will happen, it's just an interesting supposition based on previous established canon.
    The fact that this guide is so abhorrent seems to be making a point, though because the scene isn't finished yet, we can't be sure what the point is (other than the obvious: that only Adam can guide Eve).
