Pretending to sound hurt, I replied.
"Do you really not trust me after everything?"
"...alright, open the door."
Keeping my two daggers ready, I slowly inched the corrupted stick forward, placing it right under the door knob.
Waiting a moment, I slowly lifted up the corrupted stick while simultaneously moving farther back into the shower.
With the glass of the shower against my back, I completely lifted up the stick, causing the doorknob to lift as well.
Trying to give Alya more than enough time to react, I slowly inched up the door with the stick while holding my corrupted daggers in the other hand.
As the door opened fully, I waited in anticipation, watching Astrid slowly take her first step into the room.
At the same time, in a forest far away, my pitch-black crow began frantically flying at the window.
Attempting to catch the attention of the real Astrid, who was currently signing documents, the crow frantically threw its beak at the window as hard as possible.
