Shadow Slave
Chapter 448
Sunny stared at the severed arm of an unknown deity, then at the harrowing, profane rot spreading from it. Then, he tiredly rubbed his face.
'...Why can't anything ever be easy?'
He was sure that his fate was somehow connected to that arm, which meant that he was going to have to get to it somehow. But Sunny was also sure that there weren't enough rewards in all of the universe to make him go anywhere near that rot, let alone touch something infected by it.
He had the feeling that this thing was way, way out of his league.
In fact, he suspected that a divine being had ruthlessly severed their own arm because even someone as powerful as that had no means to resist that spreading corruption.
What was Sunny supposed to do, then?
Well…
Trying to remain as far from the rot as possible, he studied it for a while before coming to a strange conclusion… or rather, a strange question.
If the corruption was so terrible, then why had it not spread through the entire tower? Why had it only managed to crawl a few meters out of the silver brazier, turning a small portion of the second level of the pagoda into its flesh?
'Scratch that. Why didn't the whole island become one giant chunk of rotten black... whatever the hell that thing is?'
The answer was not hard to guess. It was because the rot, just like everything else inside the tower, had been sealed away from time for thousands of years.
And now that Sunny had broken that seal…
His frown deepened as he glanced at the silver hearth that was overgrown and had become a part of the spreading rot.
