[And the first thing Leonhardt would take note of is that height. He's definitely never met a woman who is taller than his own about 6'3", and one who is definitely quite skilled, though very brutal.
But he can still appreciate skill and training no matter what. He just doesn't realize that he can be just as brutal since the Malnosso have removed that from his memory for now. That's not going to stop him from approaching this woman to compliment her on her skill.
And since Daisy is watching him, she might note that while he definitely seems like a skilled swordsman, the way he acts with his own weapon gives an impression that it is new to him, and the weapon is unusual enough that it likely was not obtained through the smithy.]
[The compliment amazes him, because he's definitely out of practice from being unable to train for 10 days thanks to the Malnosso and then being returned with a weapon he doesn't recall, but was told was his.]
I admit, I'm a bit out of practice. You seem rather skilled also, though. I was impressed by what I saw.
It's good to meet you, Chief Petty Officer. And that was truly your first time? You definitely are quite talented.
[And he's rather deliberately evading the topic of his own sword. He knows it is supposedly his, but he doesn't recall it and the sheer power of the weapon has been bothering him and making him wonder what sort of person he was before he was kidnapped. That's making a distraction especially welcome now because that isn't a pleasant thought.]
[At least he does understand most of that stuff, though of course with the Malnosso messing around with him, his answer on his skills now will be very different than later. But then, he also has a student right now, this all was just so confusing whatever the Malnosso did.]
That must have been some extensive training.
I could aid you with your training in a short sword, but would need some more time to get back up to speed myself. If you don't mind waiting about a week to start, I'd be willing help you learn.
[Ah, him being military is a funny thing there, he's not remembering that he is right now, but normally he's got multiple military titles, though he really can't give one of them openly.]
Ah, my name is Leonhardt. And training together sounds like it would be fine.
[He just hopes he'll be a bit more used to this sword in about a week. Last thing he wants is to accidentally hurt someone with this powerful sword that appears to even be able to cut through metal.]
I wouldn't be that surprised if it lacked one. I haven't even seen a weapon like this before, yet I supposedly owned it before the Malnosso kidnapped me.
[And there likely isn't an equivalent, it's made of a rather unique material and weapons like it are rare even in his world. An equivalent would likely be even more unwieldy because the material itself is also lighter than metal.]
