[b]They keep staring into the distance before leaning against the tree and crossing their arms nonchalantly.[/b]

-
Hmm...intriguing
-
[b]They draw a dagger from a sheath on their left side and start carving notches into the tree, all while still gazing into the distance.[/b]
-
*walks over and taps them* I hope you haven't been drugged
-
[b]They flinch and nearly fall on the ground from shock, a slightly confused make voice replies hastily afterwards.[/b] "What was that for? Can't someone just carve trees without being touched?" [b]The voice is followed by a slight burst of lighthearted laughter as the figure sheathes the knife carefully keeps facing away from you.[/b]
-
Hmm...something seems odd
-
"And what is that? I'm certainly not the odd one here. From what I've seen I'm rather normal compared to most." [b]He tilts his head towards the sky and sighs nervously.[/b]
-
I can't exactly understand what has caught your attention
-
[b]He shakes his head from nervousness and sighs.[/b] "Well, I haven't sparred with anyone in awhile." [b]He draws the Estoc from its sheath on his right side and holds the blade outwards and to his left horizontally. [/b] "You may reject the offer, you may not. Just don't hesitate."
-
*quietly observes the blade* What was used to sharpen this blade?
-
"Well... I'm not aware of what they used to sharpen it." [b]He tosses the sword in the air casually and grabs the blade with his bare hand as it falls down.[/b] "Though, you only really need to sharpen the tip of the blade so it's simple enough." [b]He releases his grip on the blade and lets the weapon fall though his open grip before grabbing the weapon's grip with his hand.[/b] "Anyways, will you accept my request to spar or not?"
-
I shall not but the weapon needs to be properly sharpened or else it won't slice very effectively
-
[b]He places his right hand on his head and shakes his head in disappointment before replying in monotone.[/b] "You don't slice with this weapon, it was never meant for cutting."
-
A blade that isn't meant for cutting...I've only seen a few of them but stabbing isn't going to work every time
-
"It's certainly better than bashing an armored opponent with a katana and expecting results." [b]He smirks and looks over his shoulder as a few details can be made out on his face, brown eyes along with short, dark brown hair.[/b]
-
That's true...but that's why maces and clubs were made

-
I can tell you like to improvise with what little you have *pulls out a book and reads* That's very smart
-
"It's just basic training, really." [b]He sheathes the sword slowly as the sheath clicks in several places and the sword is locked in place in a sheathed position.[/b]
-
Some fighters act on pure instinct instead of knowledge
-
"Which makes them easier to defeat in the long run." [b]He looks at a passing leaf in the corner of his eye and watches it fly into the distance slowly.[/b] "Besides, they will simply react to everything and anticipate nothing."
-
Yes...that's the true beauty of the fight even humans fight like wild animals wether they like to admit it or not
-
[b]He nods in agreement before looking at the ground and drawing his dagger quickly and inspecting it with the broad side facing him.[/b] "Something about your presence seems different than a human's. I wonder what you could be." [b]He tosses the knife into the air and catches it with his other hand carefully.[/b]
-
I see you're very observant...what do you believe I am?
-
"A demon, most likely." [b]He tosses the knife further in the air and watches it descend, the knife then lands in the ground blade first and stays there.[/b]

You have a keen eye
