Shadow Slave
Chapter 1702
Sunny was not unfamiliar with the Castle, since he had to come here every time he wanted to return to the waking world without raising any suspicions. However, he would usually spend quite a lot of time following the main thoroughfare to the main keep, where the Gateway was located.
This time, Nephis led him on a shorter path to the pinnacle of the stronghold, across narrow stairs and hidden posterns that he had not even known existed. There was no need to waste time at each checkpoint, either, so their progress was rather fast.

Sunny unconsciously looked up, at the beautiful visage of the Ivory Island drifting in the air high above the lake.
"I see."
Nephis lingered for a moment.
"Very few people have ever visited my Citadel, but you don't have to worry. Everyone there is a trusted friend and ally. It is... it is also quite peaceful there. We won't be disturbed."
'Right.'
Sunny was not supposed to have ever been in the Ivory Tower, so he had to act as if the whole experience was new to him.
He put a sufficiently believable expression of wonder on his face, making sure to keep a proper level of decorum, of course.
