By the time they had arrived at the Asume Clan, Rean, Roan, and Frandin were received by Xiria and her parents, who were already waiting for them. Not long after, one of them asked, "Is it about time?"
Frandin nodded, responding, "Yes, we will be leaving shortly after."
Xiria took a deep breath before bowing back to her parents once more, saying, "Dad, Mom, I'll be heading out."
"Sigh...seems like that's the only choice we have," said Xiria's parents with a gloomy expression.
However, Laun, Xiria's father, was puzzled about something else, asking, "What about the thing with the Soul Rulers? Are you not trying it anymore?"
"I am. That's why I'm going to see your ancestor now," Frandin soon answered. "She's probably waiting for me already, no?"
Laun narrowed his eyes but didn't deny that. The ancestor of the Asume Clan had always been watching them every time Frandin's group came to visit with her Spiritual Sense.
