City Lord Horace dabbed away at his forehead, trying to cobble together a procession to welcome Ryu. But Ryu himself seemed oblivious to all of this. He made a direct beeline to the teleportation platform before he realized that he was a little bit too eager.
He could feel Elena now, but that didn't mean he could just hop into a teleportation platform and make it right to her.
That wasn't because he was worried about what was on the other side. Quite frankly, he couldn't be bothered to give a damn right now. It had been a while since he was able to flaunt his younger master status, but it was a role he was confident in sliding right back into. Soon, the Ninth Heaven would be filled with as many Mistress Holy Wings as he could find.
