[color=6ecff6][i]{Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer, master.}[/i][/color] As much as it was a comment in agreement with what he was saying, it was a warning. To avoid falling for the same trap that he said others fell into. It would kill him just as easily as it would kill someone else. As he walked, he would feel the presence sitting over his shoulder.

[color=6ecff6][i]{I will pass, Master.}[/i][/color] There was a faint note of disapproval in his voice. He wasn't one to talk about dishonorable actions, but resorting to stealing from commoners for food? It would be a blow against what little pride he had left.

[color=6ecff6][i]{Scouting. That is something I can do well and master.}[/i][/color] The presence left his side and surged through the alleyway. Then, it made its way into the air towards the battlefield. Ignoring the neutral ground of the church, he made his way to a tree along the hillside. Frankly, if either servant were paying attention, they could sense his presence even if they couldn't see him in his spirit form.

What he relied on was that they were too busy to pay him much attention. Or perhaps they would appreciate an audience for their battle?

Hm, yes, that Berserker would appreciate an audience. Was he the most honest man he'd ever met, or perhaps he was living in a lie? Berserker made sense for him, in its way. He would be a predictable one. Not an actual threat because of that, something to work around at the worst.

Rider... He sighed as he saw the little one of his kin. That would be a far greater problem. He would be unpredictable. The opposite of his old friend, for sure. Predicting what he would do would be difficult... Yet at the same time, that was something that could be used. Make him want something, and perhaps his defeat could be set up.

Settling in on the branch in his spirit form, he hummed softly. The battle should be an interesting one to watch, at the least. He'd never seen someone fight from the back of a gigantic sheep.
