They're all minor characters.
So they're in a fight over who can simp the hardest.
So she picked the one with the most and the hardest competition. Good luck on that. Well, depending on who she supports with him.
Is her name Altia or Atlia?
If there's one thing Blade is good at, combat aside, it's recognising the strength of others and remembering them. Very good people memory.
"I guess you could call it friendly banter."
I mean, she's not wrong...
At least if Earnest was the one speaking with Miriam instead, that would've turned out better.
"Like the H-hero or something like that."
Yeah, that Blade guy makes a good substitute for the hero. But I'm with her on this one. He is someone she genuinely admires.
"You always take the position next to the Empress."
And sometimes you quite literally share the same body.
Sudden yuri.
He truly is a guy. He'd make friends with any shonen protagonist. Or Nanoha.
Nice to see Earnest actually serious for once.
I almost expected a Terminator thumbs up, there.
Not sure if they're actually masochists, or just down
that bad.
"You're an idiot!!"
"I'm not an idiot!"
She's an idiot.
5 new characters all of whom are weirdos
Not actually new. Check the notes in the chapter. But they certainly are as weird as the rest of the cast.
