Knock! Knock! Knock!
Alice knocked on the office door.
"Mr. Joe, I'm Alice," she said in a polite tone.
"Come in!" A rather old voice responded from inside.
Alice then opened the door, revealing a small office space with a simple work desk.
Luis saw the figure of a white-haired old man inside, tidying up books in a cupboard.
He stopped doing so when Alice entered.
Luis just stood beside the door and the old man, Mr. Joe, stared at him for a while.
He had a naturally fierce expression on his face, but right now, he seemed calm. Perhaps it was because it was too early in the morning and he was still sleepy so his spirits were still low.
After that, a black sword appeared in his hand.
The sword was not very long, only as long as Alice's hand, it looked thin but had a long dragon carved on it.
Luis did not see any particular light from the sword, yet he somehow felt uneasy and nervous when he saw it.
