Shadow Slave
Chapter 97
Life, indeed, was good. In fact, Sunny would even go so far as to say that, currently, it was wonderful.
One would expect that being stuck in a cursed city located in the middle of an actual hell, surrounded by nothing but ruins and horrifying monsters, was not really the best way to live your life. But to him, this was somewhat of a paradise.
To his surprise, Sunny had found out that this type of existence suited him pretty well. He had no obligations, no need to worry about the future and, most importantly, was not required to interact with other humans.
Humans always made things hard and complicated. He was sick of them.
Being on your own was much better. He didn't have to pretend to be someone else, force himself to behave differently from how he wanted to, and strain his mind trying to understand people's convoluted feelings.
For the first time in his life, Sunny could simply be himself.
Turns out, his true self was very easy to please. He had no shortage of interesting things to do, explore, and kill. His life was very entertaining and comfortable, all things considered.
It was at least way better than his pathetic existence in the outskirts, back in the real world.
The key to this harmonious feeling was very simple. It was to have no hope.
Sunny discovered that hope was the true enemy of peace. It was the most vile and poisonous thing in the universe. If there was even a glimmer of hope to return home, he would have been desperate, full of anxiety, and probably in the middle of some insane disaster right now.
Like he had always been before.
But without hope, things were simple and pleasant. He really couldn't wish for more.
"Keep telling yourself this crap. You might really believe it."
Sunny grinned.
"What is there to believe? It's the truth!"
The shadow silently shook its head, long accustomed to his crazy tirades. Lately, Sunny had been talking with himself a lot, having long arguments that sometimes descended into screaming matches. It was a good way to pass the time.
