[ Cedrik's got a set of ears on him as well--but he's not used to the ruckus all those mechanisms are causing. It's hard for him to pick them apart from one another. If he had enough time he could star learning the differences but 'less than a minute' is not quite enough to figure it out.
Instead it's D that Cedrik notices first, hearing the cloak move and seeing the rifle lift up from the corner of his eye, it's just enough to tell him what the dhampir is aiming for. The reaper. That has to be it.
Cedrik sees it drop and squeezes the trigger. It fires almost in sync with D's--almost. His own pellet zips through the air, just missing the target as it swings back out of sight. No luck. ]
Damn that's fast!
[ Cedrik lowers the rifle and he's laughing, the thrill lingering even though he's lost. D's good! But with practice, perhaps...?
Zenos was absolutely wrong about the Warrior of Light, by the way. Completely and utterly incorrect in his assessment. ]
