Leon laughed when she nudged him with her elbow. It seemed like this girl was no threat, and was genuinely trying to be friendly.
"Well, I suppose you could say that, though it wasn't an issue of money. Part of it was that I wanted to get away, I guess. The other part is a little more involved. I'm a martial artist, and I heard people were crazy strong over here, so I spent a lot of my time growing up learning about this place. When my old man interfered, I kinda took matters into my own hands."
He looked up at the moon, smiling a little bit. It was interesting. He had come here expecting creatures of terrifying nature, and all with a lust for blood. But this girl here was simply asking him about why he was here, with the exact opposite attitude than he expected.

"You don't know what that is...? Thats surprising. Well, a martial artist is someone who considers fighting, or their fighting style of choice, to be an art form. It's an exercise in discipline, and honor. When they fight, they fight with great pride, and respect for the opponent's skill."
Leon remembered when he first began taking Taekwondo. It was pretty hard training, but it was worth it in the end. He glanced over at Callisto, and thought something was a little off, but he didn't pay it much attention, due to him not ever meeting a creature like this in the first place. He looked back down at his knife, pulling it out and feeling the engravings before offering it to Callisto to take a look.
"Originally, my parents wanted me to be a hunter, just like them, and the family before me. But...it just...it didn't sit well with me. Something about the idea of killing creatures we considered unnatural, just because we thought they were a threat, seemed unfair, and downright idiotic. Humans can be just as much of a threat. So, I fought with my own style, and my own reasons."

Death or Glory
MzDuchess the wardens are on the move
The Wardens Protectorate 82nd tracker division
Felix Reilly - Titus Kain Emilia Cook
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The coastline, it was rather quiet which suited them perfectly, the cliffs that were visible to the boat they were on gave them the cover they needed to get on the islands without attracting to much attention. Just below the cliffs a small beachline where they could land at. The boat rushed forward with all haste, on it three hunter’s whose purpose to purify the abominations that dwelled at these islands. As the boat reached the beach the three individuals rushed off weapons raised as they moved to secure their beach landing each one moving in formation as they swept their sectors before they determined that the beach was secure. The lead motioning for one of them to move ahead and took off in a full run down the beach, Felix lowered his weapon as he looked around Titus ran ahead to make sure the way was clear, they had plenty of intel from the hunters landing which gave them the information they needed to disappear in the general populations after which the hunt would begin. They knew of a village where they could hide, as far as anyone would be aware of they were simply well-prepared mercenaries and they would utilize that to their advantage. Eventually Titus came back “all clear Commander!” his weapon lowered as he approached “we should have no issues getting to where we need to be though if the intel is right we shouldn’t have to go far to get that village” Felix nodded “alright, secure the boat we’re going to be here a while, make sure it can be used, Emilia move on ahead and gather intel on the local population of that village we were told about and secure a place to stay, we’ll be along with everything else once we’ve taken care of things here” Emilia nodded not really looking forward to this “don’t take too longp” was all she said as she ran off towards the interior of the island. Titus started working on scuttling the boat but not so much that they wouldn’t be able to use it again when they were ready to leave, and Felix simply kept an eye out for any trouble.

either way you're screwed.

"Well, I don't think it has any enchantments. The engravings are more for sentimental value. It was a gift from my old man. And, unfortunately, yes, humans are tho only thing the rest of my family doesn't hunt. I refuse to hunt any living person like that, be it vampire, werewolf, or whatever. It's just not right."
Leon carefully took the knife back from her, and put it away. He sat back a little bit, looking at the stars.
"I guess a part of me wanted to come here to see new kinds of people, to meet people I wouldn't normally meet, regardless of race. Was it the same thing for you?"
He turned his head a little bit to look at her, noticing she was almost glowing at this time of night.

Leon looked at her glowing skin for a second, then closed his eyes and laughed.
"Y'know, I know you're not telling me everything about who you are. But to be honest...I don't mind."
He took her hand and got up, still smiling.
"Everyone has something they don't want to tell others for one reason or another, including myself. But I don't really want that to stand in the way of us being friends, as weird as that is to say. If you want me to never mention this again, I understand. I'll still teach you martial arts if you want!"
Leon grinned, putting his hands on his hips, and puffing out his chest a little, in a cocky, yet confident sort of way. He knew all too well that although secrets could be fatal, they were important to a person, and if there was something Callisto wasn't telling him, she slipped up in hiding it. It was easily noticeable now, due to his education on Dark Elves from his family's hunting heritage.

Leon was flattered that Callisto considered him buff. Not many people paid him real compliments back home. The only reason he had a small group of girls chasing him, was because they considered him a "badass". When in reality, he wasn't interested in them and would rather focus on training, and getting to the island. Leon shook it off, and switched mindsets to teaching.
"Well, there are tons of different martial arts. The one I use is known as Taekwondo. It specializes in kicks, and is very fast paced. Many think we sacrifice power to accomplish that, but..."
Leon found a small rock, and after feeling how heavy it was, tossed it up, and quickly took his stance. He spun around, using his momentum the strengthen his kick further, then let his right foot meet the rock with tremendous force and sent the rock shooting into a nearby tree. It almost sounded like a bullet when it hit. The rock left a deep dent withing the trunk. Leon returned to his stance, took a breath, then relaxed.
"...as you can see, that isn't exactly true. Fighting like this takes exceptional reaction time, and adaptability. Now, match my stance. Put your fists up, one in front of the other, and your body facing me. Make sure to look forward as well."

As she suggested they wait, Leon yawned, a sign he was obviously becoming a little exhausted.
"Yeah, That'd probably be a good idea. Gives me some time to cook up a lesson plan too. Will you be staying at the inn, or do you have a place to stay already?"
Leon hadn't really spent time with girls, so he didn't know if that was an acceptable thing to ask. She seemed nice enough, so Leon thought it would just be courteous. Besides, he wanted to continue learning about her. He wasn't sure if this was the correct way, but how would he find her again if he didn't stay with her? There were so many questions that needed answering, especially with his lack of knowledge on the island.
