Cyrus's reassurance didn't entirely soothe Kazuki's worries. Cantarco seemed a nice place, and these new Hunters didn't seem like bad folks, but he wasn't entirely sure he wanted to risk having his Guild Card revoked for their sake. He felt relieved when the big fellow, Kaze, brought up the idea of making it two separate Quests, but Cyrus was adamant because he deemed it too dangerous. Kazuki quirked an eyebrow at this, and then had a realization--none of the new folks seemed to have any actual training. They weren't recruits fresh from the Guild, or former apprentices like himself. Had they really just taken to this dangerous, high stakes career on a whim? He wasn't quite sure how he felt about such a seemingly lackadaisical attitude towards the nigh-sacred art of Hunting.

"...Well, best to make it quick then, everyone." he said, carefully stacking his empty dishes and wiping up after himself with a napkin. He rose from the table, shouldered his sword and his pack, and headed for the door before looking back at the others.

[@LeamonZest89][@Renny][@SantosGabriel77][@Kazemitsu]"Ioprey are small and weak, but attack in numbers. Sometimes they will take a running start and leap at you; other times they'll bite, but they tend to draw to full height due to the size difference." he began, reciting what he had learned from a mix of training manuals and experience. He hadn't actually hunted Ioprey yet, but he knew they were very similar to Velociprey and Jaggi, which he had slain more than a handful of times. "They are agile and may dodge by leaping sideways or circling--most say they tend to go left, our right, when they do that. But the most dangerous thing is their poison." He pointed to his own throat. "They will move like someone choking on phlegm, but their spit is very fast. It flies in an arc and can go further than you think. Though it would probably wear off before it killed you by itself, it's fast acting and needs to be dealt with before you continue fighting."

He had taken note of Kaze's Hammer, Armend's Dual Blades, and Edon's Sword and Shield, and if he had to guess Clara probably used another heavy type of weapon. The Ioprey wouldn't require much strategy, though--after avoiding or blocking their attacks, they could be easily dispatched. The Iodrome, on the other hand...
