Nephis continued to stare at him with her usual unreadable expression. After a while, Sunny chuckled and shook his head in disbelief.
"You really are crazy. That's… that's an awakened demon we're talking about, remember? Have you forgotten that we're just Sleepers?"
Then he frowned and scratched his head.
"W—wait a second. I feel like we already had this conversation before. Doesn't it feel familiar?"
Cassie glanced at the two of them and politely cleared her throat.
"Actually, you had said pretty much the exact same thing right before we decided to attack that first carapace centurion."
