Proton pass

Guys I use proton mail and proton pass but the issue I have is that how can I have a secure password for proton mail with 2fa if I use proton pass? If I have a less difficult password then I am lowering my security and If I want to have a 2fa (with local encrypted file) then I have to save it on some secure cloud, which for me is proton drive or mega then again I have those passwords saved in proton pass so I would have to login to proton pass first, If I lower password of those apps then again it risks security. ( I am sorry I am so confused). Please help!

Sorry if it's a dumb question, but why not just change your account password to something you'd use for a pass database?

    Yeah that's already how it works. That's why in certain browsers logging in takes forever if you have a ton of mail, it has to decrypt the metadata of each email, then the contents when you click that email. Try enabling email content search on proton with over 5k emails.
