His eyes bounced between the two as they traded thank yous and offering him tips along the way, which Leon was grateful for, despite the fact that he was unlikely to leave. Leon only nodded, though he wasn't prepared to leave Emma alone in the home. He watched the couple leave, sighing as they seemed to have let him off the hook. Running a hand through his hair, Leon contemplated what he could do while awaiting Emma's consciousness to return. He really needed to see the Elder, but wasn't sure how to do so when he promised to protect Emma. Then, suddenly, he realized what he could do and stood to return to Emma's room.<br/><br/>Craftily, Leon creeps into the room, trying to keep silent as he begins to remove Keibatsu from his side. Afterward, he slips the blade under the sheets next to her and his own begin to glow a hot white as he spreads his fingers, calling forth a form of barrier. His hands too glowed with that same white, emanating resonance the flowed from his palms. It was his energy condensed from his own pure soul, which would serve perfectly to protect her. A powerful, white barrier formed around the bed, illuminating the entire room with its glow. It was powerful enough to keep even the strongest of men out, however the barrier was best used for combat, as it only worked one way. So he could strike from within, as anything could pass through from the inside. "That should do it," he whispered, turning to leave the room and heading for the village elder's hut.<br/><br/>Upon reaching the small hut, Leon rapped on the door and awaited a response.<br/><br/>[OOC || I'll let you play the part of the Elder.. Let's say it is a woman. Age anywhere from 30 - 85. Haha.]
