The Archangel’s Request (2)

"Ready?"

"Yeah, I think."

"Then let's go."

The request Dax had undertaken was the reason he had spent a few months at the sanctuary, and finally preparations had been completed. For the first time since Dax had arrived in this strange world the CAS-7A was fully fueled, ready for a long endurance trip. Solaris also looked the part, instead of her usual silk dress she wore a gray tank top and black shorts with all the gemstone she usually wore nowhere to be seen.

"Is it really impossible for me to bring some refined monster cores?"

"You can bring them in a bag that have to be stored in the depressurized cargo section."

"... Okay then."

Feeling there was no room for dispute on that point Solaris gave up without a struggle and boarded the CAS-7A with a pout.

"Then let's launch before the optimal transfer window closes.."

Boarding himself Dax helped Solaris with her seating before he sat down next to her himself.
