• ⚠️Word Count Notice: 8,379 words (This chapter is not a quick read. It is extremely long. I'm trying to save some space for the future chapters since I want to finish Soulbound: Part One in one book. If I have some space left, I'll edit this book and cut down the chapters to smaller parts so that mobile users can have a better reading experience. I hope you guys understand.)

Omoi took my words to heart. He swore that he'll try to uncover intel about Junichi during our voyage. Well... at least, that's what he said before he left our table and started chatting up the singer who had just finished her set for the night. I'm not leaving it all to him though. With Omoi dancing with the woman and then running off with her, it's clear that he isn't going to fulfill his promise anytime soon. The only thing he'll be uncovering tonight is that singer who is shamelessly throwing herself at him. That's why Sasuke, Karui, and I decided to work together to corner our two targets after Captain Chiasa excused herself to rest after dinner.

Currently, Karui and I are on Deck Three near the entrance of the pool area. The place is isolated and closed for the night. But still, we're keeping watch for civilians who might pass by, so that we can stop them from entering the shower room.

Sasuke's going through Eito Takada's mind in that room right now. He's searching for something in that old man's mind that can lead us to Junichi. If I was doing this alone, it would probably take a longer time for me to extract and verify information from a target. So I'm glad Sasuke is here to make things easier since he can just use the Sharingan. He makes it look so easy when I know for a fact that it's not.
