Shadow Slave
Chapter 172
Behind the door, there was a medium-sized hall that had no windows. It was illuminated by a strange lantern that levitated in its center, radiating a bright and stable glow.
Along the walls of the room stood various weapon racks, wooden mannequins dressed in full suits of armor, and tables with a wide assortment of beautiful and intriguing objects placed upon them.
All of it — the weapons, the armors, the objects, even the levitating lantern — were Memories.
Sunny felt a thundering thought explode in his mind. For a few moments, he was only able to think about one thing:
'Money! That is so much money!'
Inside this unassuming hall hid a fortune that could rival that of an entire corporation.
He was barely stopping himself from drooling.
"Uh… Sunny?"
Brought back from his covetous stupor, Sunny blinked a couple of times and glanced at Kai.
"Huh?"
The beautiful archer hesitated for a moment, then said:
"I was saying, this is Stev. He is in charge of this place."
Only now did Sunny notice that there was someone else in the room. It was a man that was old by the standards of the Dark City, nearing twenty-five or so. He had a round face and cheerful eyes, which were currently full of doubt and hints of disgust.
His gaze, of course, was aimed at Sunny.
'Have you looked in the mirror, bastard?!'
Apart from his extremely tall stature, there was one other special thing about Stev's appearance, and it was that he was… fat. He was the first obese person that Sunny had met in the Dark City. Having a belly like that in a place like this must have required a lot of work, talent and dedication.
He didn't know whether to be impressed or appalled.
In any case, Sunny decided to not get on Stev's bad side.
