Stroph wasn't Erza's best friend, and they hadn't spent many years together. However, one thing he knew for sure: Erza just loved fighting, no matter where or with whom it was.
Sibren and Kelly were fighting downstairs, and Charles with Julia rushed to their help. So, Erza was the only one who was fighting alone, and judging by the endless lightning bolts, she was having a fierce battle.
Whoosh.
Stroph jumped away from the black platform of "Negative Energy" and made his way through the thick and dark clouds.
A startling yet eerie picture appeared before his eyes.
Erza was badly wounded, but she still continued fighting, no matter what. She was not doing it out of a great desire to protect Akrin. There was a wide smile on her face at that moment, she obviously was enjoying the battle.
