Artea just shrugged at Nicholas's remark. Perhaps she did prefer to steal from mages, it did not matter much who was what. As long as the target has something worth of value, the thief would steal it. The Vice captain gave herself a disagreeing frown, followed by a rather irritated response to the pyro mage. βI don't, steal.β Artea said, putting on her best act of innocence, although it turned out to be more sarcastic. βI investigate the pockets of those, who I happen to find interesting.β The female thief giggled from her own words. βPlus, I get to meet quite the interesting fellows.β She looked at Nicholas, a short moment of laughter overcoming the female thief. βBut, you joined the Red Wolves so you could travel safely? Then you are quite weak for a mage, I think.β
Artea gave Nicholas a joking prod in the side with her left index finger. βDon't worry, I got your back. If our enemies don't lure me in with gold that is.β The Vice Captain playfully stuck out her tongue, turning her head back towards the fight. It seemed it would come to an end, bummer. Now it was to wait for either spear-wielders to lose.
