After looking at the sword, he felt a bit greedy and wanted to take it for himself but when he looked at those cold eyes and felt the suffocating pressure in the study, he knew that Alita was no longer the person that she used to be before.

Alita didn't put on airs but was vigilant all the way. She had sensed a number of powerful figures around and she knew that this black market was on another level but she had come prepared so she wasn't that scared.
