Well he shouldn’t really be surprised, Chikara had always taken his job seriously as mail courier to the Vongola. But he digressed, it hadn’t hurt to ask, especially when the information he was seeking pertained to Daemon which was very much still his business. Especially when the Mist seemed so fixated on the Decimo Famiglia.
“Vacation?” He arched an eyebrow before shaking his head. “I’ve rested long enough and the ring only lets me stray so far away from it.” Now that his request had been denied, Alaude knew he should leave but there was something stoping him. Chikara was right, he was reluctant to return for now. Not when Hibari had managed to catch a glimpse of him right before he had disappeared.
This was awkward.
Chikara revels in the awkward silence for a moment before breaking it for them. “If you want to avoid Kyouya you’re welcome to stay in my office, I won’t even make you do paperwork-- just note that the tenth cloud has a soft spot for kittens, and the headquarters is full of them.” He will admit he doesn’t appreciate Alaude being so close to the letters he seeks... It wouldn’t be much for Chikara to stop him, but he doesn’t want to have to. Hopefully Alaude is as much of a stickler for rules in death as he was in life.
