Percy certainly wasn't expecting this guy to feel like hitting a wall. The hell kind of stuff is this swordsman made out of? Pretty stern stuff if he could hang around like this it seems.
"Aye and I ain't been doin much but throwin shite at ye, so we're both holdin' back."
The next few seconds happen in a blur. Even if he wasn't charging, Percy isn't sure he would have even seen the sword drawn. His hand continues the motion though, sending a nice breeze past Arashi's face.
"YE AIN'T DEAD YET SO!" The shark takes a hard step forward before he stops. He grits his teeth, clenching his fist as he slowly pulls back. A breath escapes the wereshark as he downshifts slowly back into his normal form.
Percy takes a few moments to collect himself, panting as the adrenaline leaves his body. He flexes his hands a few times just to get himself loosened and moving again.
"Made ye draw yer sword." He grins as he finally seems to have wound down. "Glad ye took so long though, probably woulda kicked my arse if ye started with the. I imagine yer one of them trained types, aye? Dedicate yer whole life to bein the best and shite. Ye like a wandering guy lookin fer revenge or like...just really good at fighting?"

As the would be strike became a breeze, Arashi realized how much strength would've been behind that hit... As Percy yelled complaining about Arashi still maintaining the status of a living person, he tensed up readying for a possible follow up but he noticed almost immediately that the fight was over as the wereshark shrank turning back into a smaller albeit still imposing shark person...
"That you did..." Arashi Grins as well "you're not bad yourself, you almost had me there. But to answer your question yes... I've trained most of my life, my father was a samurai and I was raised to become one as well... I even was in the army but... Well I didn't like that life style, and decided adventuring would be more exciting hat rotting at barracks waiting to be sent on an assignment I didn't even want to do... But that's enough of that." He looked around at the destruction and several unconscious people, "well now that we've all calmed down." He approached the bartender and pulled out a bag of Solars it was most of what he had managed to save from the coffers of the ruins of his family's estate. "Sorry for this, I meant to stop it and accidentally made it worse... This should be enough for repairs and a bit extra for the inconvenience." It was more than enough for repairs, probably enough to build a second room like the one that was destroyed and then some. He bowed at the bartender "Again I apologize for the destruction we caused." And as he rose back he turned around to look at Percy "So what's your story? Just a monstrously tough sharkman or..?"

"Sounds like ye've had a bunch of arseholes tellin what to do, how to do it, and when to do it yer whole life." He cracked his knuckles before crouching down to start rummaging through pockets. One of thise idiots had to have a cigar or something that wasn't destroyed in the fight.
It takes a bit, but he does eventually find a rough-carved wooden pipe and just enough to get something lit. Percy tamps it down before striking the match and lighting the pipe. He takes a deep breath in before letting the smoke curl out around his sharpened teeth. He stands looking much more relaxed than before.
"Nah, s'bout it. Really ain't much to it, ya got it in 1." He takes another drag and exhales in a sigh of relief...it is unfortunately damp, but he just has to make do.
"Ain't keen on lettin others tell me what to do er anything like that, if people don't like that, ain't exactly my problem. Arseholes like this" He half-heartedly kicks the guy who had first attacked him. "Usually end up like this, ye get used to it after awhile."
