I keep telling you guys that Alfred is an Immortal (a la Dunkin McCloud of the Clan McCloud) although I'm not sure where he keeps his sword hidden. Somehow he had Wayne Manor and holdings declared holy ground, to ward off the odd duet or dozen, and watches over the fierce soildiers he raises to protect Gotham and the world like the good warrior he is. 'Cause he is Alfred Pennyworth of Clan Pennyworth, the baddest assed Warriors to ever Butler in the Palace.
