'Ugh, my head is killing me. Just what happened? What was I dreaming about?'
Rin's head was throbbing and his body temperature felt higher than usual. He was not someone who got sick easily, but he was sure he was sick this time.
But this minor illness was not going to keep him down. Rin drank a potion bottle before getting back to work.
Rin had a strong feeling that he was forgetting something, but it grew fainter by the second until he stopped noticing it altogether.
Madam Yao also decided to contact him during this time, sounding excited. And that was how Rin came to entertain her and her people.
…
"I know this is a rather sudden visit after what happened, but I had a feeling I needed to tell you about this anyway. It concerns Alex's core."
Rin tried his best not to think about how he had treated the core during the last mission. Madam Yao seemed more than aware of it, but her smile remained nonjudgmental.
