Poropo talked with the sulking child by leaning down a little, "Hello, do you remember me? You're father hired me to- um..." The monk was lost for words - Luca's father had once hired the monk to distract a crowd enough to make Luca seem more magical than he really was, but telling Luca to his face this story would not be helpful.
"Were you hired to make sure I wouldn't hurt anyone with me magic?" Luca seemed to be sure he was magical, which was bad, but Luca also seemed to understand magic was capable of hurting others, which could be a good thing to know as a child. The monk was not sure how to respond other than nodding.
"Yes...yes, yes - your father hired me to watch you and make sure nothing bad happened. Now, show me what gestures you make when you cast magic, but don't actually cast magic!" The monk was trying to trick Luca into making certain gestures clear to the monk so Poropo could use magic to make Luca seem magical.
