Hearing Kenneth's voice come from the small body of Azali did confuse Luca, in that sense Kenn had surprised Luca. In a purely reactionary movement, Luca's hand jumped to his revolver, partially drawing it before the familiarity of Kenn's voice set in. When Ken finally let go of the illusion Luca visibly relaxed back into his painful slump, reholstering his gun. “Azali, huh,” Luca muttered quietly to himself, filing away her actual name along side her nickname. Luca also noted the familiarity Kenn spoke with, and the use of the term 'side kick'. Perhaps Kenn knew something of, or was a part of the distress Little Bird had been under when Luca had first found her.

“Met 'er ata bar once. Gave 'er a place to hole up fer the night.” Luca didn't give any more information on the topic. As he spoke Luca connected some of the information Kenn had given him. He had said the woman had transferred the aura ability when she had hit him. He had also said that Luca wasn't necessarily going to be using a super punch of his own. “That, thing ye jus' did.” Luca pointed at Kenn. “That yer own super punch, ain’t it? How do ye go from super punch to a disguise like that?” Luca intentionally didn't ask about Azali's ability, he wasn't particularly fond of giving out information on himself, even what might be seen as useless details.

The more Luca thought about what Kenn had said however, the more focused he became on the trick Kenn had just shown, and the possibly limitless potential it implied for himself. “How do ye go from murderin' someone wit' a touch, ta takin' on the looks o' someone else?” Luca had so many questions he hardly knew how to get them into words, and felt as though there were another world of questions he just didn't know enough to ask yet. Without realizing it, Luca had began sitting more upright, anxious to hear more of what Kenn would reveal about the power Luca had just had thrust upon him.

Everyone's always telling you to be humble. When was the last time someone told you to be great?

"I wonder what she was doing at a bar. She is't really the person for leisure time. I'll have to ask her next time." He responded. Kenneth laughed at Luca's childlike curiosity and ignorance to the world of nen. "Well, not quite. You see, the super punch just seemed super because you had not unlocked your... aura. Let's call it aura for now, why not." Kenneth shrugged. It was a universal enough concept that applied similarly enough.

"So she hit you by focusing her aura on her fist, and that just violently opened your ne- aura. That's something everyone can do. You will be able to have your own super punch, super kick whatever, by focusing aura on a body part. Or even an item, but that will come later."
Kenneth nodded at him with a smile to confirm if he was following until now. Letting a pause for any possible verification or question.

Kenneth focused all his aura into his hand and slammed it into the floor in a fluid motion. He made sure not to put too much weight into it and create a small crater, he was already strong on his own. Just enough to leave a small, fist sized hole on the spot that he just hit. "Your aura is surrounding you now, instead of leaking like it originally did. So to do the same, all you need to do is learn to control it. That's a thing for later, however."

Predicting what a next question already might be, Kenneth continued. "What I did, is a personal ability. Which is what you can get later and is personal to you. My ability allows me to change the appearance of things to something else."

Kenneth squatted down to get on the same eye level as him. His face lifted into a warm smile, his cheeks pushed his eyes up. "Trust me, you are about to enter a whole new world. It is gonna be amazing." Then he stood up again and looked around. Upstairs there was room for them to sleep. "Though, right now you are hurt by the aura punch and its late in night. Lets rest and get into the whole details tomorrow. Upstairs there are bedrooms with a condition that is... not too bad." He grinned.

'She was drinking,' Luca thought, the same thing most people do when they go to a bar. He kept the thought quiet as Kenneth continued to talk. As Kenn continued, Luca focused acutely an all the information he was being given. Trying to store and sort it as it all came out in one torrent. With what seemed like a fairly lack luster punch, and a frame that didn't exactly scream powerhouse to Luca, Kenn managed to obliterate a small section of the floor. Eyed opening wide with amazement Luca looked between Kenn and the tiny crater, reminding himself to keep focused on the information that was being explained.

Though his curiosity was beyond peaked, Luca filed away the fact that Kenn alluded to. People were able to personalize their own power. Instead he ran through the parts he had been told. Aura was a sort of life force, it existed in all people, but couldn't be actively used as it just sort of leaked out of them. Learning to control it, would let Luca add power to his own strikes as he saw fit, allowing him to do the same sort of thing the woman had done. Passivly Luca wondered if this meant he was able to move where his aura was located within himself, or if it was more of a matter of pushing more aura out of those nodes in his skin Kenn had mentioned. Looking down at his fist, Luca tried to move his aura to it, or even push it out from his hand. Instead he was struck with a weak and woozy feeling that often accompanied a thorough workout. Letting his hand drop back down, Luca wearily closed his eyes and waited for the sensation to pass.

“Don't matter if its a floor that smells like cat piss,” he stated, his exhaustion plain to hear in his voice. Trudging in the direction Kenn had directed Luca made his way to the “bed room”. What he found wasn't far from the conditions he had described. The beds seemed to be little more than spare pallets with stained sheets loosely strewn around them. The walls, floor, and ceiling all had an assortment of graffiti adding a touch of color and depicting further the unstable condition of the previous residents. The one feature Luca appreciated was the assortment of newspapers that had been plastered over the large windows. A drug den, one which Luca hoped wouldn't be hosting its previous occupants tonight. Stumbling to the closest pallet, Luca pulled a likely flea infested cloth over him and fell asleep nearly immediately.

If he were to be honest, he had slept in worse conditions.

Kenneth faked going to sleep until he was sure that Luca was knocked out. After everything the man experienced today he should be tired enough to travel to wonderland almost instantly. He fought a nen user that didn't hold back at all, he did whatever got him in these circumstances in the first place. He caught a sweet Mary and he learned Ten. He should be exhausted right now. Although Kenneth had to admit, he was better than most. He wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow he was more than ready to train. To be able to defeat a nen user without unlocked nen nodes was a feat Kenneth never heard of.

He waited a half hour to be sure before quietly making his way out of the room. He trained his stealth enough to be as silent as applause for a bad performance. Although he previously claimed to scout out the house, he never did thoroughly. Instead opting to trick Luca. He hadn't done a lot himself today so could spare some time to scout around the house, see if the place was too unstable to do any training. A more than probable concern in this town. He didn't find anything noteworthy and was closd to giving up until he stumbled upon a basement. He rolled down the stairs and found that it was almost fully in tact. A lot of books and old stuff in boxes. Probably because it was out of range from the catastrophe. It was a bit dusty, but Kenneth could compromise for an otherwise perfect place to do training in.

Only then he creeped his way into the bedroom. He was instantly bothered by the bad conditions. Seems like they weren't the only visitors in recent time, Kenneth couldn't imagine the smell of piss to be that timeless. He visualized his old bed in Meteor City years before he got ambitious and decided to take the mature role. It helped him deal with the overwhelming cold, even if it was just for a few minutes. He promised himself that as soon as he got some power he would help with the restorations here. Which have been way overdue if you asked him. Fuck trying to be the bad guy, people living here sleep in these circumstances then get to work during the day. Soon enough Kenneth fell asleep.

As soon as he woke up he stood up and looked to see if Luca was still asleep, if he wasn't he would wake him up as well and get on with the program. He had hidden the bags of food and other mildly expensive stuff in the basements. He looked to keep enough to survive for the training and give the rest away. Which was the first course of action before actually starting the training. He prepared to carry the bags and hand them to the people working hard to restore the place to it's former glory. It was good that he had some hands to help him though. When Luca seemed fully alert, Kenneth would explain the situation. Making himself look like a saint, of course. Before, hopefully heading out with him to give away the stuff in the spare bags.
