[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

-
"I'm guessing I'll need to introduce myself, then." [b]He turns around on his heel and bows in your direction with his right hand to his chest and his left hand extended outwards.[/b] "Come to think about it, I'm not all to sure about my name."
-
How come?
-
"Well, it was a part of training, I suppose. They wanted us to forget our lives and simply kill. I however, only forgot my name. Atleast that's what I assume."
-
Oh that's a shame
-
"And it seems like everyone here uses magic." [b]He returns to his normal stance and leans against the tree again with his arms crossed.[/b]
-
Yes that's a common thing here
