Snippet #1284661

Shadow listened to the conversations taking place behind him and smiled when Kain mentioned his contact.

He waited until Kain had finished advising young Mark before speaking.

"Kain. The contact I am speaking of is a young woman who you actually met, but do not remember because you were unconscious through your meeting. She tended your wounds shortly after the battle with my brother Asasirihito, a woman named Taira. She has been shadowing me for a while now, keeping at a distance and traveling to my destinations a few days ahead to make plans and to provide me with intel. She will undoubtedly know which way my little worm has slithered off to, and then, once he's out of the picture, I can focus on my real work once more, as he is the last of my targets."
