Arad looked at Nina, "Are you sure? I can understand Abel. But not Merida." He shook his head.
"I doubt you find anyone better than her. Except for the old ones like Alcott, he isn't here. Look at the guild, does anyone look better than her?" Nina smiled.
Arad looked back, and then back at Nina. "Someone who looks better is standing in front of me."
Nina giggled, "Me?"
Thud! Abel grabbed Arad's shoulder, "Hoi? Do you want her on the team? You would have to beat her for that."
"Abel is right. As a barbarian, I fight at my best when I don't need to think. And I hate thinking when fighting, I only smash things with my axe." Nina walked from behind the counter. "You don't have what it takes to lead me. Even Alcott can't."
CRACK! As stood, the ground beneath her feet cracked and all the adventurers shivered. They could feel her gaze change, that woman wasn't the happy Nina. It wasn't the angry one as well.
The bard was making fun of Abel since he's known to be overprotective of his sister. And words of Arad fighting with her on his back have spread around.
