Chapter 176: Checking in with everyone

Like Kellen had predicted, Sakura had come to visit at around lunchtime. 

She wasn't allowed to just storm into the building, so Kellen was called on his cellphone by the front desk. Kellen answered the unknown number, confused as he sat in his office typing away, until he heard her voice on the other end and the soft, calm voice of the receptionist. 

"Guide Woods, we have someone here who claims to know you. Does Captain Sakura ring any bells?" The receptionist kept her tone neutral, even as Sakura spoke in the background. 

"Kellen! I need your help!" Kellen sighed, dropping his head into his hands. Brent had already gone off to eat with some of the Espers that he was in charge of. Gathering intel, basically, so Kellen had planned to head up for lunch a little bit later. Turns out, he didn't have much choice. 

"Send her to the cafeteria. I'll be up there shortly."
