Shadow Slave
Chapter 799
They stood silently under the tree for a while. Eventually, Nephis looked at him and said evenly:
"You did well."
Sunny glanced at her with a pale smile, then nodded.
"I guess I did, didn't I? My mom would have been very happy. If she was alive, that is. I am healthy, well-fed, and have a house in a good part of the city. I even found my… a student. These things might not sound like much to you, but to her, they would have been like a dream."
He turned to the tree and added after a short pause:

The strangest thing, though, is that when I was a kid, she was the whole world to me. I thought that she knew everything, could do anything. But now, I realize that she was barely older than we are. She was more or less a kid herself."
Nephis looked at him and said:
"But we aren't kids."

"That is because you have been an adult for a long time. People like us have to grow up early."
Sunny thought about it for a moment.
"I don't know. I have a suspicion that when I look back on today in a decade or so, I will be dismayed by how big of an idiot I was."
Nephis smiled with the corner of her mouth.
"...That has nothing to do with adulthood."
He spared her a short glance and scoffed.
