Elric didn't immediately hurry after the others. He instead backed after the other Star Gazers, keeping an eye on the Vigilants for now. Nothing much he could do if they attacked, but it meant he would be alert faster, if he saw them approach in a hostile manner. His sword was still sparking, despite being sheathed.

The enemy of your enemy was not your friend, after all. Only fools believed that. The enemy of your enemy is simply a person whose goal coincided with yours. Remove the obstacle facing you both, it was natural for him to prioritize your demise if he wasn't your friend already.
