Old Man

Lucius's eyes settled on the two new arrivals to the meeting room. Kalliope had been sent by Wally to fetch a last-minute registration, but it seemed someone else had tagged along. The two people who followed her were a pair of siblings, twins, no doubt, with vibrant violet hair and blue eyes.

 

The woman had a mark on her left hand, while the man looked slightly familiar. It took him a few moments, but then Lucius remembered that the man was a contestant in the tournament, and he had defeated Rena. Lucius watched the fight closely and respected the contestant's honor. However, honor alone was useless without the strength to back it up.

 

"Lord Kane, a pleasure to meet you." The violet-haired man walked up to him immediately for an introduction. "My name is Desmond Adler. This is my sister, Jade Adler. It is a pleasure to finally meet you."

 

"Yeah, cut the formalities. I don't like it. Save the fluffed-up speech for parties."
