A concern that was warranted with the way the brothers were speaking; talking as if this was a contest or competition. For a moment he contemplated approaching this differently but chose to refrain himself with the hope their demonstration would go smoothly. And so, silently Menzai observed Dante and Darius with very sharp and keen eyes. Witnessing as each chose their example of showcasing what they have learned, the annoying bickering aside. Things were going well so far and what he witnessed to be impressive though also took note of the mistakes and wasted energy. The methods and approach the two had were quickly apparent with Dante preferring power and Darius technique. Both of which were reasonable methods and through this saw the potential of teamwork where the brothers could cover each other's back and make up for what the other lacked. Having gathered all the information needed, Menzai had begun forming a game plan on how to proceed. His thoughts, however, would be cut short as things quickly escalated from a simple demonstration to competing and talking smack to each other. An wholly unsurprising outcome, but a most headache inducing one nonetheless. Once Darius began showing a lack of control of his emotions leading to the possibility of an actual fight breaking out, the previously silent wolf strode towards the brother, his stern, unhappy gaze and wide strides more than telling. Had Dante not gain the sense to step back, he would have jumped in immediately to put this... this farce to an end. " [color=bc8dbf]That is enough![/color]" Swiping his left arm horizontally, cutting through the air like a blade, his usual calm voice hinted with anger." Mr. Darius. Please come down and join with Mr. Dante at once." Ordered the wolf in his usual manner though the slight strain to his voice a clear indication he had plenty more to say but withheld it until they were gathered up. Upon doing so, Darius would get to see his sharp gaze has become sharper and more intense, the red glints at the center almost seeming to glow."[color=bc8dbf] It seems I did not speak clearly or loudly enough. Then allow me to be absolutely and completely certain that my words sink into those empty holes you call ears.[/color]" After stating this, Menzai stepped forward until he was standing right in front of the two and leaned close where he then used a clawed finger to motion them closer. His eyes shifted between each multiple times without saying a word, letting the tension linger in the air." [color=bc8dbf]This was to be a DEMONSTRATION![/color]" He barked harshly into their faces, his tone a mix of frustration and disappointment. Leaning back to stand upright before the two children.[color=bc8dbf]" Did the words I spoke previously fall upon deaf ears? Need I reiterate how dangerous and dire the situation you humans have found yourselves in? That at any moment either of you could find yourself attacked by any one of the countless forces that are intent and determined to kill any and all humans![/color]" He finished with a low growl before shaking his head followed by a sigh." [color=bc8dbf]We did not come here to play around and showboat, but to train.[/color]" Turning his head to peer at the two one at a time. "[color=bc8dbf] If you wish to continue acting like children then perhaps I should have both of you grouped up with the cubs. Mayhaps then the both of you will get to play with rocks to your heart's content.[/color]" Menzai observed the two as he finished reprimanding them. The wolf did not wish to be this hard and condescending, but it was clear that Dante and Darius still had yet to fully grasp the seriousness of the situation... everything. Giving them a moment to let his words sink in (and properly this time) before raising his right hand with the palm facing skyward." [color=bc8dbf]Is that preferable for the both of you... or are ready to take this seriously so that I may teach you how to actually fight and defend both yourselves and each other. If neither agree with my methods then you are free to leave to seek out another teacher.[/color]" Moving his extended right arm in a arc motion towards the forest to show that they were free to leave. [/color] [hider=TLDR] Watched the brothers give demonstrations of earth magic that derails leading to Menzai harshly reprimanding the brothers that finishes with the option to leave to seek out a new teacher.
