"Mongrel! I am your opponent now!"
Activate Get Your Weight On, switch to Slim Sword, crush the Killer

Minato tests the field first. He figures he might as well test the waters first, figure out if there's any other way around what Shou was suggesting, which was steal the key from him. Maybe he was referring to some sort of misdirection involving his weapons.

So, to start, just to test the field's strength, he manifests some generic swords and smashes them against the leyline, exploding them to inflict as much damage as possible.
"Start with the basics, after all, then work our way up."

Minato stares at Shou as he walks away, blinking. He groans, looking over at the tree.
".....well, there's no way I can out-con a con artist like that. That'd be like trying to count grains of sand on a beach."

The boy rubs the back of his head. He wasn't the deceptive type, so swindling someone wasn't an option. Especially someone like Shou, who made it his life's work to con things, as far as Minato knew about him. Conning the conman wasn't an easy task for someone who already knew how to be a con, let alone someone more direct like Minato. So the theft approach wasn't going to work.

That left the direct approach. The thing Minato favoured. That was, smash it until it comes down.

Cracking his knuckles, Minato studies the tree for any weakspots he can exploit, things he can go for, any sign that he can bring it down with something like Durandal.

"All I know about a con is that you butter up the mark to think he's the biggest guy in the room, then you screw him when he thinks you can't touch him."

3443
"Alright. That sounds....less like hitting my head against a wall repeatedly. Where do we start?"
Minato cracks his knuckles. Something a little closer to his comfort zone.

3444
"Okay. This is.....something."
Minato continues trying to project. His powers were usually rather flashy, but that was more a side-effect of summoning weapons that were known for cleaving mountains in half with trails of rainbows than any real effect of Minato's own power. When it came to it, Minato's powers were the equivalent of yanking weapons from the largest arsenal known to mankind.

Which, unfortunately, didn't lend itself quite so well to learning how to project without a vector to project through.

L4, stab an archer

"I....uh...I agree with you there. B-besides, they wouldn't have come along if they d-didn't think they could handle it, right?"

3447
"O-oh! That's fine! R-really. It's....it's natural to feel nervous before you, uh, do something dangerous!"
That's....not what's going on here, is it?

3448
"I...uh...well...."
Karin, true, had fought people as a guard before. And on her way here, too. It was hard, fighting people, but she had to defend herself, after all. And then sudden blushing.
"E-eh? What's....what's going on?!"

3449
"Not particularly, no."

3450
"...."
"Thanks. I'll do my best to watch yours too. And everyone else's."
