I'm replaying BB and this particular voice line from Djura really catches me off-guard every time. Even though Old Yharnam is a relatively early-game area, you're already being acknowledged that your player character isn't just some lowly fighter - the Hunter is someone that deserves respect and fear from a veteran hunter. It's a really stark difference than how NPCs in other FS games regard the player character as a lowly figure in some ambiguous way. In Bloodborne, you get a dude that's just calling you a killer and I'm all for it 😂
This is one of the things I really like about a particular boss in Elden Ring, too - most of the NPCs in that game are pretty clear that they look down on you, but there's a late game boss who acknowledges your strength in a pretty big way and it's good.
