"Rather, I was more worried about YOU breaking business ties with us because…"
Eren chuckled when Sirius trailed off. He shook his head and addressed the elephant in the room immediately.
"Because you welcomed Demonmir into your fold?"
Sirius nodded before shrugging his shoulders to show his helplessness in the matter. He knew Eren had been at odds with Demonmir for some time. His organization had taken Eren's enemy under its wings and still wanted to do business with him.
Anyone that knew how at odds Eren and Demonmir was would have assumed that Eren would break his business ties with the Last Blood Bastion as soon as Demonmir's entry into the Last Blood Bastion was confirmed.
This was a slippery slope. Because anyone in Eren's position would interpret staying in business with the Last Blood Bastion as empowering his enemy in some form. And to some extent, that was true.
