After getting out of direct sight, Leo's shadow sped through the districts one after the other. He wasn't heading to the City Center where the 'elites' lived, but the obscure bordering district was still quite a bit away from his destination.
That being said, even if he had to carry an extra passenger, Leo's speed didn't decrease by much. He was still able to arrive where he wanted less than half an hour later.
"Ah!"
Compared to the short cruise that they took earlier, Gene was shocked to see the light again after staying inside the dead silent shadow bubble for that long. Regardless, it seemed that she was still in a bad mood.
"So? You still didn't say where exactly are you taking me. I did agree to follow you for the time being, but I didn't say anything about following your orders."
In reality, Gene was so curious and eager that she wanted to be there already, but her irritation stopped her from being honest.
