Fleuri wasn't entirely reassured, but brought his wooden sword into a combat stance nonetheless. 

He watched as his opponent moved her only arm to the sheath and freed the sword within.  He wasn't quite sure how she was going to use it.  If he had to guess, judging by the very short guard above the hilt, it would be easy for her to move her hand up and grab the hilt.  The sword's curved shape would allow her to draw the weapon from the  scabbard and attack in the same motion.  However, it still ought to need some space to clear its scabbard, right?

He was making an awful amount of analysis for a match that was almost certainly going to end poorly for him.  Still, it'd be disrespectful to not give it his all.

She hadn't yet attacked, which Fleuri interpreted as an invitation for him to attack first.  Reasoning that if he didn't attack first, he probably wouldn't get to attack at all, he complied.  Fleuri stepped forward and swung his sword at Rui, aiming for the side of her that her arm and sword were.
