Rui realized that he didn't know a thing about Ieyasu, about who he was and where he came from.

That was normal, of course. They were merely part of the same impersonal organization. They had been included in the same operation against the Martial Seniors of the Kaddar Region.

But they had never actually even interacted prior to this moment.

('Whatever,') Rui shook his head. ('It doesn't matter for now. I just need to focus on what I'm setting out for.')

Soon enough, he stepped off the island, sky-walking away.

Instantly, the weight on his body plummeted, as the air thinned.

He heaved a sigh of relief as he treaded through the air comfortably.
