There will never be a time without idolizers.
As a certain hairspray wielder on high once said, admiration is the farthest distance from understanding. Fanatical idolizers add many halos to their idols, blending the idol's traits with their own imagination, viewing them as the most perfect existence in their minds, even obeying them as if brainwashed.
The Light Eagle Group can be seen as a large fan club for Eliphas, all members see Eliphas as their big idol.
No matter what means Eliphas used, the mercenaries are more fanatical than if they were enchanted, yearning for him.
Yet today, the first person to dispel his charm was born.
In Elsa's mind, many thoughts started to emerge, including but not limited to:
Why do I feel guilty towards Eliphas when it's perfectly normal for me to repair my weapon?
Eliphas indeed deserves gratitude for taking us in, but I have slain so many enemies for him and conquered a fortress, which should be enough to repay the favor.
