A sudden call from Eyjafjalla interrupted Bai Ye and the others' vacation plans.
"Did something happen?" Dr. Kal'tsit walked over and glanced at Bai Ye.
"You can just stay here, Elder. Leave this to us. We'll hand it over to Dr. Kal'tsit for the final cleanup."

Dr. Kal'tsit gave him one final reminder.
"I understand... Hmm, as long as it doesn't make Ryu Aihara angry, that should probably be fine, right?" Bai Ye nodded.
"Ryu Aihara? Never mind. Just make sure you know what you're doing." With that, Kal'tsit headed back beneath the parasol.
