บท 208: Memories

"You're going back where?" Natash asked as she wondered if she had heard Shiro correctly.

"I said I'm going back to Cairosa for a while. It's the city that me and my friends had to evacuate to for a short while." Shiro repeated.

"An exactly how long are you going for?"

"Hmm… well if I don't factor in travel time and the such, maybe only a week or two. Perhaps longer depending on what happens." Shiro replied. Since the second part of the task wanted her to investigate the reason as to why the distress call hadn't been answered, it may take her a while if the culprits were extra careful with their tracks.

"Mn, shall I mark it down for one and a half months of absence?"

"That would be helpful." Shiro nodded.

"Alright. You're clear to go. Just remember, if you need assistance, you can send out a signal to the nearby disciples if they're near the city and they'll come to your aid." Natash reminded.
