Ansel thought it to be a bit of a strange mindset that she'd only fight guild members or for a bet or something. It kinda sounded like she'd only fight with her own family, since she had referred to them as a kind of family. Though there was probably a reason of some kind behind it. Not something he was too interested in asking about at the moment.
After walking in silence again for a while Taunie decided to ask him a question instead. One he hadn't put too much though into himself, actually. "Not really sure why... I guess because I've been doing fine on my own so far? Plus I wanted to see more of the world after Galzra disappeared..." Those reasons were indeed true, but there was an underlying reason even Ansel himself didn't fully realise he had. He was looking for a place to call home, but just hadn't found one yet. He had visited Lamia Scale once, but it's guild master was just way too creepy for his liking. And Phantom Lord when it still existed felt like the kind of guild where he couldn't be lazy. One of his favourite ways to pass time. Plus the place was pretty close to a dark guild in terms of mentality in his mind.
After a few moments of pause he added "Ah, that's the name of my stepfather by the way." He was talking about the earth dragon of course. Unlike most dragonslayers he had some very vague memories of his human parents, so while he respected his dragon parent greatly and did see him as a father, he didn't see him as his first father.
