Leonora stretched walking through Sosshi, raising her hands above her head while letting out a yawn. Why was she in a place like Sosshi, well that was anyone's guess. She was traveling to find some sort of outlet for the temper building up. She didn't have the usual tasks of going to her Squad, taking up whatever missions or dungeons that were presented or requested. No those days as a magic knight was done. Something about having to do so was more annoying then ever. It wasn't a outlet she wanted to willingly do. No, it was a chore. Something she was no longer wanting to take responsibility of.

It was time for this lioness to do her own thing and spread her own wings, so to speak. So traveling seemed like the best idea cause after all, being able to be free and move about without caring of the restrictions and acknowledgement of societal looks and standings was actually relaxing and refreshing. A weight of ages removed from her shoulders. No longer did she need to be the good example for anyone but the one she called her brother. While She had asked him to reject her and Taiyo. She did it under the guise of being the good big sister, wanting what was best for her little brother. He was happy and growing in the green mantis, he was safe there and that was all she could ask for, one less person wanting her attention. Her true goal was within her sights. The freedom to relieve the world of the stain on her family and break the chains that she long since kept upon herself. It was time for this Phoenix to burn the world of her past to as she and rise above it. Just how she was going to do it was pretty simple.

Her life since the Flower Blossom fete was interesting from meeting a newly found interesting in a Casanova who called himself Ryuuma along with a newly acquired fascination of a smug noble that while getting under her skin with ease with his entitlement and air of being better then herself has often peak a lot of her thoughts of relieving her temper. Just how was between herself and the inner workings of her mind. For the time, she was going to allow her interest to remain as he was, however she was sure their paths were going to cross again. She had heard rumors of the various methods one was to get noticed in the underworld of clover. Taiyo took the most obvious route that made him not only the even more laughing stock of clover society but she was sure the underworld was laughing at him as well, just waiting to see what he was going to do. She decided to go a more subtle route. She was going to enjoy herself without becoming a murderer or a known idiot.

She acquired a cloak and mask for today's activity. She had heard of some newly acquired patrol guards guarding the mayor. Now why would one like him need guards in the small town of Sosshi? Time to test their resolve against her own. Seemed fun enough.
She walked out of the shop, holding the folded cloak over her elbow, her newly acquired mask resting hidden within the folds of her cloak.

She watched the patrol walk towards her, doing their usual rounds within the town. A little following never hurt anyone now did it? She slowly walked after them, keeping within the various social groups that walked with ease, no care in the world as she moved past a stall, subtly bumping it's leg, noting its wobbliness earlier that day from some clumsy kids having knocked into it.

"Oh no my apples!" Called the merchant as Leonora caught ahold of the stall, catching the apples within her arms.
"I am so sorry." She apologized returning the noted apples as the merchant refixed their stall.

She thanked them before walking away, adjusting her cloak to view the subtle two apples that had found themselves inside the mask. What luck it seemed. She continued her stroll catching view of the patrol as she followed them, eating the apple as she went seeing their patrol remained the same as it seemed. quite creatures of habit they seemed. Nothing she was going to blame them for, they are just doing their jobs.

Having an apple core she tossed it in the air above the guards, into the alley next to them, catching the attention of one of the guards who was curious of the odd sound, sending the two on as he went to investigate.

Leonora moved after him making quick work of grabbing ahold of him of guard, causing him to spin in reaction only to take a subtle punch to his gut before taking a shift chop to the neck. Seeing him fall unconscious she caught ahold of him long enough to move a empty barrel next to him to fall into "one down.' she spoke placing a spare lid on top, hiding the body as she moved out of the alley, fixing her shirt and hair as she moved on, not seeing anyone take note.

She looked around finding the two patrol guards talking to themselves without any acknowledgment of their friend being gone for awhile now. She could only guess when they would search for the other patrol guard.

She was curious taking a side path down, getting to an alley ahead of them as she got comfortable putting on the cloak and mask.. While waiting for them to get near she had grabbed some pebbles , chucking them harmlessly from the alley, pulling their attention to her

"Halt there. What are you doing?" they asked the masked and hooded figure.
Leonora smirked under the mask "Oh I'm not doing anything other then tossing harmless pebbles." She spoke with a smile watching them cautiously moving closer. She could tell where their grimoires were on their person as well the subtle light from their grimoires hidden in their armor. She watched them talk out their weapons as she took a few steps back, baiting them closer before she darted forward suddenly

"Lighting's v-" stated one of the man getting cut off in surprise of her darting forward, tossing an apple core directly infront of his face, distracting his attention away from the fist that followed right after the core, decking him backwards as in quick response she twisted sending a high round house kick to the last guard, feeling her boot connect with his forearm, hearing him let out a grunt getting hit into the wall as she took a step back before letting out two more punches. taking him out as she watched him slouch against the wall, collapsing down to the ground.

Leonora looked between the both of them before moving her head from side to side feeling her neck crack. That was fun for sure and rater relaxing as she smirked under the mask. She moved the bodies out of site. Finding that to be rather exhausting as they weighed a lot more then she did obviously. "Man you all are heavier then you look." She said to herself staging the area before removing parts of each of their uniforms before placing her cloak over their laps. " Sweet dreams." She taunted to the unconious patrol guard leaning against each other with the cloak like blanket over their laps with empty bottles of booze next to each one of them.

"Not bad." she said admiring her work quickly moving out of the alley opposite of the way she came in. She moved to the tavern next door, taking a room to change into the outfit as she placed her old clothing in the fireplace. She snapped her fingers forming a white flame lit feather before tossing it on to her clothes watching them light ablaze as she turned away looking towards the mirror in the room. Out of the two guards, one of their pants were thin enough to fit her comfortably as her chest piece she had to go with the large of the two to fit comfortably in without worry of having any ackward slip ups. After all, she was here to enjoy herself and while this would have been beneath her as a magic knight, she was here to test out some oddball thoughts she have had from time to time. She never needed to entertain them until now. While she never thought much of how she was going to pull this off. she did have to say it was a rush of excitement for sure and one she wouldn't mind exploring from time to time cause after all. She knew how the magic knights acted and how long it would take for them to investigate such an issue of a simple brawl, if at all. After all, something this time wasn't exactly always reported to anyone other then higher authority of the town who would then debate of whether to waste the knight's times or even if they themselves would tend to it. She knew she was in the clear and she was going to enjoy the next phase of this activity.

She adjusted her hair into a bun before placing the helmet on. She adjusted her grimoire comfortably into her newly acquired uniform, looking at the note hidden inside it of given orders. Seemed this experiment was giving even more entertainment. She watched the fire finally die down as her clothes became ash. "Time to return to patrol" She teased to herself tucking away the note leaving the room, nodding to two patrons of the Traven as she left leaving a tip for the inn keeper, silently thanking her for the room for the few minutes she needed it.
