Though not normally prone to having thoughts of violence, at least not so soon after beginning an interaction, Minerva found herself wanting to tear the man before her apart. First, he seemed to be disregarding the ‘trouble’ she could give him, but maybe he just really didn’t know who she was. And the way he implied she had no idea what was going on…it irritated her like the incessant buzzing of a fly, and it grated her pride.
She, the collector of information, the strategist…if he knew better, he would know there was no way she wasn’t aware of everything that went on around her, in her ‘territory’ so to speak. Was he trying to piss her off and offend her? It seemed likely. Perhaps he was even hoping that by injuring her pride, she would be compelled to help him with the job just to prove him wrong.
Whatever the case, Minerva forced her heated anger down. Nothing of her emotions had been shown so far, even while she inwardly struggled for control over her urges, she’d had far too much practice in hiding her feelings and reactions to be given away so easily (though perhaps a slight rise in magical pressure had occurred momentarily).
“I assure you, I am perfectly aware of what’s going on in there, this is my mission after all. Five dark mages are inside, two of average level, two of above and one significantly higher but still of no comparison to me.”
Watching her with eyes far too perceptive he was surprised to discover that her expression barely changed despite the influx of magical power emanating from her before she apparently reigned it back in , had he hit a nerve with his words ? That was unsurprising , he rarely did converse with people in person so what had been him merely stating the facts laid out before him probably had come out more sarcastic than intended.
What surprised him more , however, was the fact that her words seemed to give more away than she probably intended , was she possessive over her mission ? That was certainly how it appeared , which meant it would probably be best if he made it clear he had no intention of taking over , right ? Considering she’d be getting paid for the mission he’d already looked up prior to attempting to infiltrate the building , it really was the least he could do , he wanted nothing to do with the men inside.
❛ Then you won't mind if I slip inside ? The mission details stated that you are only to apprehend them and that has nothing to do with my reason for being here... Don’t worry , you’ll have no clue I’m even there, Miss Orland.❜
