"What did you just say? Child soldier? Where? Are you referring to me, you sad little dipshit?" for some reason, despite acting like she was mad, the small girl did not stop smiling, her sharp and pointy teeth fully visible the entire time as she stepped forward, and everyone else seemed to stop moving… No, in fact, they were slowly backing off.
Ilmael could feel that they weren't doing that to give her space, but rather because they did not want to be anywhere near her, and they subtly accelerated their movements when she started to act offended.
Information about the girl flowed into Ilmael's mind from Antieeld, the commandant might believe the mission a big flop, but that did not mean that she was going to allow a spirit she had summoned to be torn apart, she would have already called him back if his wish was not to stay and fight, not that it mattered, fighting spirits summoned by Antieeld might be destroyed, but they could always be called back.
