Kishin listened as everyone spoke, not moving much. Rescuing seems like an interesting quest type that Kishin has little experience in. Without being able to search effectively, Kishin has to rely on others for that sort of thing. He took note of Eteri and how she responded to Judith's offer to submit to trial runs of meals.
As Judith spoke of her favorite mission being delivery missions, Kishin couldn't help but feel a sense of gloom wash over him. Being unmagical, he couldn't contribute much to the more exciting missions that the other members of the guild were capable of taking on. "I like killing monsters, to be blunt." Without magic, Kishin has to get up close and personal, so he's always gotten the most out of that sort of situation. Pondering a reply to Dan, Kishin doesn't mince words too much. "Location, a safe choice. I wasn't scouted or anything to the guild. It just seems like the most peaceful guild, right? I think Blue Pegasus is a good choice too, but I wouldn't want to live in Hargeon." He was aware of his comfort limitations and had come to accept them over time, his maturity allowing him to see beyond his own happy limitations and find other ways to contribute to a guild.
As Judith posed the thought-provoking question, Kishin didn't immediately have an answer. He took a moment to consider the options, weighing the consequences of each request. Memorizing everyone's faces, Kishin came to a decision on his answer eventually. He wasn't sure what he would ask of the guild mother concretely, but he knew it would have to be something that he believed would benefit not just himself, but the entire guild as well.
Kishin didn't outwardly show any excitement or disappointment, his demeanor remaining stoic as he thought about the question. "Strength? If I become a so-called God of War, I want you to keep living. Or to keep supporting, I should say. Strength, to me, is the ability to protect unique supporters who can boost you up." He was aware that he may not get the answer he desired in his soft goal, but he was willing to put in the effort nonetheless. Looking for a pause, Kishin was a bit somber to loss. Strength was individual to everyone, but to Judith it might be legendary figures. Kishin was focused on finding a way to make the most of his situation and contribute to the guild in any way he could, without being too proud or satisfied with his current circumstances. Getting up to leave, Kishin feels like he has some more work to do. "Or I'd want you to help me find the perfect combo..." Retreating in embarrassment, Kishin remembered Judith being married herself.
