Shadow Slave
Chapter 344
Slowly walking away from the edge of the chasm, Sunny stopped opposite Nephis and looked at her.
In his dark eyes, there was nothing but coldness.
"Well… it's not like we didn't know for a long time that this would be how things end. Did we?"
She stared at him for a while, then smiled bitterly.
"...We did."
Indeed, they knew.
From that terrible day when Sunny had first understood the meaning behind Cassie's vision, he suspected that one day, in order to survive, he would have to kill Nephis.
This was the truth he had chosen to hide from, even if it meant losing his mind. The final and most unbearable reason for why he had spent months alone in the Dark City, hunting monsters and slowly turning into one of them.
How does one come to terms with the knowledge that, one day, they will have to kill the person they care for the most?
…Knowledge, indeed, was the heaviest thing in the world.
Back at the beginning of it all, far away from the Dark City, before they had even known that the Crimson Spire existed, Cassie had shared with them a terrible vision.
She said:
"At first, I saw a… a boundless darkness locked behind seven seals. Something vast was churning in the darkness. I felt like if I directly saw it, I would lose my mind. As I watched, terrified, the seals broke one after another, until only one remained. And then that seal broke, too."
