บท 50: Shadow companion

"Alright, all I need now is grab some stuff from my dorm and then I'll be ready to go today." Uriel addressed Nika who was standing by his side.

"I don't think that'll be possible." Nika awkwardly replied.

"What do you mean? Is there anything stopping us from departing?"

"Actually, we set off a couple hours after you boarded the ship." She shrugged. "The trip should take less than two days, in the meantime you are allowed to do as you please and I'll be in charge of making sure you're comfortable. Please ask me if you want anything." She finished with a playful wink.

"So the ship took flight even before I signed the contract? What if I refused?"

"Tee hee! it's your fault anyways for chatting for so long!" Nika giggled playfully.
