Ryo seemed a bit surprised to find himself standing right back there in front of the sword. He was quite careful not to examine that coin he was holding in front of the crowd--he could feel it in his hand, and that was enough until he could get himself a bit more privacy. Privacy wasn't a thing when you were standing in front of a bunch of adoring idiot townspeople who seemed disappointed you hadn't pulled the worthless sword from the stone, after all.

Only one thing left to do now--get out of there. He started walking away from the sword, hoping the townspeople would just accept his "failure" and let him go with minimal punching of annoying people in the face.
