Shadow Slave
Chapter 1060
1060 The Fall of Falcon Scott (78)
The Winter Beast came.
And then, it left.
The last citadel of humanity in the Antarctic Center, Falcon Scott, had fallen to the Chain of Nightmares. The harrowing blizzard had swept through it, freezing the whole city solid and killing everyone inside.
Sunny had heard that a long time ago, during the Dark Times — or maybe even before that — the whole of Antarctica was covered by ice. It had been a land of perpetual winter, cold, and snow.
After the Corrupted Titan wiped out the last human settlement and retreated back into the mountains, as if satisfied to be the sole sovereign of the region, the landscape looked just like that, again.
The city was drowning in snow. The buildings emerged from it, encased in ice. Below the cliffs, a large swath of the ocean was frozen, as well. A gargantuan battleship was stuck in the ice, still anchored, the people aboard it all dead.
Everyone was dead.
Except for Sunny.
His soldiers were dead. Millions of civilians were dead. Professor Obel was dead, too. But he was alive, and not even wounded. Sunny had remained in the shadows for a long time, only emerging from them after his essence almost ran dry.
And now, he was digging a grave.
The earth itself was frozen solid, so his task was not an easy one. He had to summon the Sin of Solace, and use the beautiful jade blade to dig. Sunny was standing in a shallow pit, deepening it. His movements were fast and purposeful. Angry tears were streaming down his face, turning into ice before falling to the ground.
…He was not alone, either.
A vague shape that looked a lot like him was sitting on the edge of the pit, staring at him somberly. It had his voice, too.
"Look at you go."
Sunny gritted his teeth, ignoring the Sin of Solace. The cursed sword remained silent for a while, observing him.
Eventually, it asked:
"So, did you find it? Conviction? Or whatever it was you've been searching for?"
Sunny spared the vague shape a glance, then continued digging.
"No… no, I didn't find crap."
He wiped his face with an elbow.
"Actually, that's not true. I did find something. I found out that I was right all along!"
Sunny plunged the sword into the frozen soil and laughed.
"Faith, calling, conviction… all those lofty words. It's all rubbish! It's all… meaningless. People like Anvil of Valor and Ki Song have conviction, and that conviction helps them achieve greatness. Well, where are they? What good did it do? Where the hell were they, huh?!"
