Chrysalis

Chapter 1253

[Here’s your core, little guy. Sheesh, this thing is about the same size as you.]

The master rolled the mythic core up to Invidia using one foreleg, letting it rest on the chamber floor right in front of him. The demon looked down at the spherical gem, seeing the powerful flows of mana within and around it.

He wanted it.

[I know, I know, almost all of your body is stuffed into a pocket dimension, I get it. Even so, it’s going to hurt like heck when you absorb that thing, so be careful. Was it helpful? Talking to the golgari, I mean?]

Invidia considered the question seriously.

[Yessss,] he hissed after a pause. [I learned much I didsssss not knowsssss.]

The master's eyes glinted, pleased.

[Nice, I’m glad you were able to pick up a few things. They know a heck of a lot more than me, that’s for sure. Is there anything else you need? Something I can get for you, before you take the plunge?]

The master froze for a moment, then waggled his antennae nervously.

[Oh? Of course, ask away. I’ll answer as best I can.]

[What ssssort of demon isssss Invidia?] he asked.

The master slowly rubbed at the top of his head with one antenna, an air of confusion around him.

[You don’t know?] he asked, sounding puzzled.

Invidia shook his head.

[I am notssss ssssure.]
