บท 94: The Passage through Time

"Man, is this boring or what?" Kai yawned as he reeled the fishing pole in his hand. "Boring days are good and all but drifting in the sea for three days straight with nothing do but stare at your fellow mortals could get you insane."

Ryu concentrated on his fishing pole and didn't hear what Kai said. He wanted to catch some Queens Horned Mackerel like what Ferris wanted. 

He needed to do something. Anything that would make him feel not useless as he idled on the boat. He was scared that he would go berserk if he had nothing to do to keep his mind off of Ferris's death.

"Ryu, are you listening?" Kai nudged.

Ryu grumbled, "Yeah."

Ryu didn't know when Kai became a familiar companion to him. The man had an innate nature of blending in with the others that it felt like Ryu had known him long before.
