Both because of the language and the Viking thing. Raiding wasn’t exactly a pleasant thing for a group of people to be doing, but what was the present reality for him was kind of in the past for her. Or at least she thought so. As far as Tsubaki was aware, people from the Scandinavian area weren’t running around pillaging other places; if they were, the world would be more topsy-turvy than it already was with Asura afoot.

Her expression went from curious to apologetic, in a somewhat more remorseful way than Lingormr‘s.
“I’m sorry, I can’t tell you that much,” she replied. If he only knew! “He seems to keep to himself a lot. A lot of the time his messages get more nasty at night.”
