"I've seen too many people like that."
"I don't want you to be next."
Leon appears sincere and genuine, but in reality, he is just a CPU. He has never been as noble or righteous as he claims. There are countless people in the world still suffering from cruel experiments—so why doesn't he save them?
Because, at his core, he is an egoist. He won't go out of his way to help strangers. Of course, if he happens to come across someone in need, he won't turn a blind eye. But he won't actively seek out suffering to stop it.
The most he can do is use Veronica to monitor the world, and when he discovers inhumane experiments, he exposes them online. That's why, in recent years, shocking videos of human experiments have surfaced mysteriously across the internet—so widespread that even social media platforms cannot erase them.
In a way, he has saved many people. But still, there are far too many who remain unfortunate.
That is the limit of what Leon can do. He can't save everyone. He isn't Captain America, Steve Rogers, or Spider-Man, Peter Parker. He admires and respects people like them, but he will never be one. It's too exhausting.
Of course, Skye doesn't know this. Looking into Leon's sincere and gentle eyes, she feels herself falling for him.
