"Hmm… I look quite good."
Bai Li said that in her head while looking at herself for a moment, slightly tilting her head like she was actually judging herself seriously. It wasn't really about looks though. It was more about the feeling. She looked… ready. Calm. Not nervous, not scared like most people would be in this situation. Just steady.
Then with a simple thought, Whisperfang appeared in her hand.
It still felt a little unreal every time it showed up like that. One second her hand was empty, the next second the dagger was just there, resting perfectly in her grip with its scabbard. She slowly pulled it out, and that soft metallic sound echoed just a little in the quiet room.
The blade came out smoothly, shining faintly under the light.
She held it up and looked at it again.
