Thoublade furrowed his brow, his expression one of displeasure. "Kid, I was just starting to like you a bit. Merciless is my nominal disciple, and I haven't agreed to whatever is going on between the two of you yet."
John glared at him, realizing that he had overreacted. It seemed that Thoublade didn't actually mean any harm toward Leisian.
