Hello.

My name is Naruhodo Ryunosuke. I'm still relatively new to this so please forgive me if I make any mistakes. I'm looking for someone who could teach me how to use a katana. I've been lucky enough that I have the weapon but I have no idea how to wield it properly. After recent events, I think it would best to learn how to use it.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Ha, thanks.
It came with me.
I'd recognize it anywhere.

[siriusly]

Is it a family heirloom??

[convene]

It is, but not mine.
It belongs to my friend.
He asked me to hold onto it until he returned to Japan.

[siriusly]

Sounds like you'll need to get a sturdy belt to make sure it stays with you right?
Maybe Michael can help you out with that, he just set up shop with clothes stuff

[convene]

I have a belt.
Though, a new belt would probably be a good idea.
I can't keep wearing my student uniform.

[siriusly]

Right...something heavy duty for Trench
As for the sword stuff, i'm still trying to learn myself but maybe Diluc wouldn't mind being a teacher for more than one person?

[convene]

If he doesn't mind teaching more than one person, I'd be very grateful.
I hope I'm not taking too much on since Nehan offered to teach me some basic hand-to-hand combat.

[siriusly]

Guess it depends on how busy everyone is right
And you too

[convene]

Yeah.
Hopefully not too busy! I'm not trying to work myself to death.

[siriusly]

[ok but that bears asking:] What work did you wind up finding??

[convene]

Nothing yet.
I'm not sure what skills I have that would help.
I fear my lack of combat expertise puts me at a disadvantage, though I could go into academia again if that is an option.

[siriusly]

There is some kind of academy in one of the other districts but i dont know what they study

[convene]

I suppose that means I'll have to take a look and see.
Maybe my skills with investigation will be of some use.
It would be nice to be able to learn something that would be helpful here.

[SIR UR PREACHING TO THE CHOIR]

Investigation like detective work??

[convene]

More or less, yes.
I was able to investigate crime scenes for my work as a defence attorney and gather evidence.

[siriusly]

An attorney huh
So you protected people that way
There's some detectives and law types here so youre in decent company

[convene]

I did what I could to find the truth.
It's my vow as an attorney to do so.
I'm glad I'm not alone here with that. It's nice to have something familiar to fall back on.

[siriusly]

It's gonna be kind of hard to find out the true truth of how things work here i bet...

[convene]

I'm sure it will be.
I'm not expecting it to be easy.

[siriusly]

Well you know who to call for backup

[convene]

Always.
Thank you, Manabu.

[siriusly]

Don't thank me for stuff i haven't even done!
But when you start getting practice on that sword maybe we can square off?

[convene]

Sure!
We can definitely see how much we've grown since we started learning, that way.

[siriusly]

Sounds like a plan to me
