Escalating situation

"So what's it going to be, are you going to apologize, or do I need to be a little rougher?" Ren smiled as he heard what Valdel said. It would seem that after gaining most if not all of Kir's memory Valdel became rather aggressive. 

'Well, it's better if he's like this. If he were like before and done this with words, then that would be a little disappointing. Still, I wonder what he's going to do now since I know for a fact this guy doesn't like to kill people if not needed. In fact, sometimes I wonder if he doesn't like killing monsters as well.' 

While Ren was watching the scene before his eyes with a smile on his face, the guards were doing the exact opposite. The guards were all advanced level swordsmen, and the strongest of them being at a level were he was near master level swordsmanship. Still, for some reason as they faced this single man in front of them, they felt like it was going to be a difficult battle.
