Adelheid still wasn't sure what to think of Homura. On the one hand, he was grateful that the demigod had made sure he couldn't attack anyone last night- even if that had involved dislocating his arm and then strangling him into unconsciousness- but on the other, the arrangement between the two of them was starting to feel far too one-sided. This smelled to Adelheid like another request for weaponry, and tonight, his patience was wearing far, far too thin.

If it was anyone else, Adelheid might well have told them to go away, but Kenshin was one of the few people who had been kind enough to hear Adelheid out. So, for that reason alone, he finally sighed and called back, "Very well, come in. Though I do have to ask what Homura's orders were, exactly." He couldn't entirely hide the hiss in his voice as he spoke, though he struggled as best he could to fight down the instincts trying to claw their way forward.
