He laughed a little listening to him. "we'll see how bad you are, telling me and showing me are two different things. So back your words." He still seemed overly relaxed by all of this, though to be fair he had been training for the past four to five hours so he was more then warmed up by this point. About this time Neimi was walking by the ground and she had tracked Raden down as she seemed to stop and look at why there were recruits still about the area. She had feared Thalion was forcing them to over do it again but it seemed that wasn't the case.

He grinned a little at the comment of baby, he never said a word though. If Mizuki couldn't tell he wasn't trying to attack just yet then he was more foolish then he thought. Just because he had a little training he doubted he had improved all that much. Though either way he wasn't going to give him that much of a handicap just yet.

"You'll see soon enough what it's like.. rushing solves nothing." He said in a relaxed manner still blocking and avoiding any strike Mizuki was managing to get out. A few of the recruits were talking to one another, one was questioning why he was only bothering with one blade. It was a known fact Thalion favored the style of two blades or that of the bow. Though if it had been the bow against the sword it would have been over already.

His gaze narrowed a little catching what Mizuki had done at the last second as he forced himself out of the what could turn into a pinning move and to the side of the strike easily stepping free of Mizuki's leg. "hrm.. so you've improved a little.. that was a little close wasn't it." He grinned all the more finding a bit of fun out of this little game. He still seemed to refuse to strike though, he was conserving his energy for the time being.

Mizuki seemed to continue to strike out and read his movements, just about the time he'd catch a pattern Thalion would switch it to keep his steps and blocks a few moves ahead of Mizuki. This was almost a art form to watch as the two seemed to dance this spar out one move at a time each side picking and choosing the next strike or step.

Raden and Neimi both by this time had joined the small crowd that seemed to gather at the ground, it wasn't just made up of the recruits anymore, there were passerby that were standing or sitting now. Though it was to be expected, this was the current General of the Western resistance and the ex General of the Eastern Kingdom, what wasn't there to watch.

"Come on Mizuki.. you were barking that you had improved, I'm not bleeding yet." He taunted the other a little to see what would happen, e had still refused to draw the second blade, really he was hurting his own style by not doing so cutting it close a few times as he nearly went to block with a blade that wasn't there. Though he still seemed to not strike out towards the other for whatever reason.
