To say that he was a little leery of this place was an understatement. Kenshin had noticed the notice during his exploring but didn't really pay it any mind at first. But after talking to a couple smiths who gently - oh, he knew that they were thinking that he was being an idiot despite their gentle words - that the sword he wanted was not possible. One even explained what a sword was, and that made him curtly leave. The problem was not that he didn't know what a sword was, the problem was that he refused to use any other kind of sword but a sakabaotou.

Saito's words aside, he will not use a sword to kill. Monsters might need the edge, but against a person, no.

Which was why a little tired and slightly annoyed Kenshin walked into the store and then paused.

"Ano..." Maybe that MarKus guy was busy.
