Shadow Slave
Chapter 778
Eventually, Sunny and Nephis ended up in his underground dojo. Changing Star looked around, her gaze lingering on the racks of training weapons and the deactivated sleeping pod that stood forlornly in its alcove, all but forgotten by its former occupant.
After a few moments of silence, she asked:
"Do you make use of all these weapons?"
Sunny glanced at the training equipment, lingered for a moment, then shook his head.
"Yes and no. In the past two years, I did expand my repertoire to include all kinds of sharp implements. But I practice with something better."
He was still most confident when wielding swords akin to Azure Blade, Midnight Shard, and his serpentine odachi. His proficiency with spears was also quite high, and he was steadily improving his archery skill. However, while Sunny had learned enough to feel comfortable with other types of weapons as well, he had a long way to go before truly mastering them.
Nephis nodded thoughtfully.
"Do you use the... Soul Serpent?"
Sunny stared at her for a moment, then looked away.
"Yes."
He was reminded of the Shadow Bond that connected them. Beyond its main function, it also allowed Sunny to peer into some of Changing Star's secrets. However, she was able to learn a lot of his, as well.
Sunny had suspected that this was the case from the very start, but now those suspicions were confirmed.
He remained silent for a few moments, then suddenly grinned.
"Were you surprised?"
Nephis looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"I was. Very... very much."
She sighed, sat down on the floor, and crossed her legs.
"I always knew that you were extraordinary. I just didn't… didn't think that you possessed a Divine Aspect, too. To be honest, I thought that I was the first."
