Shadow Slave
Chapter 407
Judging that he had seen everything he needed to, Sunny rose and left the cafe, then headed home. The happy shadow left the premises of the school, unnoticed, and soon wrapped itself around his body... but not before showing how proud and satisfied it was with its flawless performance.
'Yeah, yeah. You did well.'
On his way back, Sunny was thinking over what he had learned about Rain. His sister seemed to be smart and well-adjusted, and receiving the kind of training most kids in this world could only dream about.
But was it enough?
He did not know. No one could know, really.
After he had returned from the Forgotten Shore, several people told him that they would have never survived in that hell. But their words rang hollow to Sunny, because how would they know? Until a person was thrown into a situation like that, there was no way to tell what would remain of their resolve once everything else had been stripped away.
Brave people broke, while cowardly ones found strength that they had not even known was inside them. Kind people became cruel, while cruel people became lost. Only by looking at a mirror of a nightmare could one truly see their real face.
Before Sunny entered the Forgotten Shore, he had thought himself to be strong. But once there, he had to learn the hard way that his strength was brittle and illusory, that it could shatter under the smallest amount of pressure. To survive, he had to build within himself a new kind of strength, one that could not be broken by anything, or anyone.
That was how he had survived.
How was he supposed to know how Rain would measure against the horrors of the Spell? And how was he supposed to make her chances of surviving its trials better?
Consumed by these thoughts, Sunny returned home and tried to put his mind at ease.
This was not something that he could decide in a hurry, anyway. For now, he had many other things to do.
Activating the Dreamscape pod, Sunny climbed inside and closed his eyes.
'Time to relax a little…'
At least out there in the Dreamscape, things were simple. He just had to fight, learn, and win.
