Tsubasa wasn't all that surprised at the man's amusement--his father gave him the same look often, and likely for the same reason. However, the more the man spoke, the less Tsubasa liked what was said. They were here from afar, it seemed. Nothing he wanted would be any issue and there likely wouldn't be any need to bother the Master. Less so if everything they had was made from the same quality of metal as the blade the captain presented.  Of course, Tsubasa knew his uncle would get angry if he wasn't made aware of what was happening. Captain Katsuro didn't offer the strange thing at his hip, either, much to his relief.

He took the weapon without protest, figuring that the sooner the request was made, the faster they would leave. Then again, he continued to talk again, and Tsubasa outright frowned. They were hunting for something, it seemed, but he couldn't imagine the elder being okay with any outsiders lingering around. The town would get restless, too--it was supposed to be a time for celebration, not tension. The excitement in the captain's eyes was confusing to him until it was revealed what he was hunting: a [i]demon[/i].

There was no hiding Tsubasa's surprise at this reveal. Were they mad? The captain was excited about such a thing? But where was this confidence coming from? Swords could only do so much. Either there were many more than Tsubasa anticipated, or they had some sort of power--Wait, was the thing on his waist a weapon? There were too many things he didn't know and he wasn't sure what direction to go, either.

Keiko's intention on departing snapped him out of his thoughts. He was torn between giving Keiko praise for rightfully getting away and getting worried. Mio had quietly appeared next to him, likely having heard everything. And then Fumiko decided that she would lead the captain to the elder. Not that there was anything better suited, but the idea didn't sit well with him. The man was clearly dangerous, and he wasn't sure how he would treat Fumiko or the elder. He also wasn't sure how the captain would respond to Fumiko's request. He held onto the sword, watching the man intently.

[color=firebrick]"I'll go with you as well. I need to fetch the Master so that we may service everything to help you and your men find your prey quickly,"[/color] He stated, holding the sword out for Mio to take.
