"The world I'm from originally isn't... particularly safe." Isn't that an understatement. "At least not since I was a child."

The fact that most people would still consider him a child, only a few weeks past 18, is irrelevant. He hasn't really been a child since the Night fell. And even before that he was learning the intricacies of knife work from Monica.

"The Foundation didn't teach me to be dangerous, they took me on because I already was."

Does he sound proud of that? Gosh, maybe a little.
