sometimes, erza wanted to bury her armored fist in the gut of her new king. but that would be treason, and she’d rather not have to deal with the consequences of having to lock herself up. but the fact remained that king jellal was not as focused on results as his father had been, which was a change from how she was used to. no, instead he was more interested in being humane, in making enemies into friends, or whatever.
(it took all of erza’s will to not roll her eyes whenever he talked about that kind of stuff.)
(after all, she was the one keeping assassins from getting close enough to kill him.)
“perhaps not.” a concession the soldier had to make, examining the blade of her dagger for blood with a casual air. “but it was effective, and didn’t waste time like your methods would’ve. unless you think that finding out just how many of the ambassador’s men are spies out to breaking into your office when you walk in and find them is a better idea, your majesty?” she certainly didn’t, and would kill any she found in her own on sight.
