"Is this the place?"
A well-dressed man, Ryozen, asked. He had a cloak that went over his right shoulder, falling gracefully over his chest in a way that made him look mysterious and intriguing.
"Yes, master?"
His student said.
They were standing on a sidewalk, an iron gate before them, and a dojo with a sign that read "Martial Redemption" over its entrance.
"Knock."
Ryozen commanded.
His student reeled back his hand and gave the gate a proper knock, so strong that it echoed throughout the dojo.
"The master of the Seishin Gakuen, Ryozen Gakuen, have come for a visit. Open this gate right this instance!"
The student shouted haughtily.
It took a little while, but the iron gate eventually opened, and with half-open eyes, Kiernan looked outside.
It was late in the night, and he was already deep in sleep with Aoi. Then the sound of knocking came that woke both of them up.
"What do you want?"
Kiernan asked.
