Shadow Slave

Chapter 1743

Sunny was surprised to see Jet here. She was one of the executive leaders of the government now, after all. Someone like her was not supposed to visit members of a Great Clan unannounced…

Not that he wasn't happy to see her.

Jet was exactly like she had been before. Her ivory skin, raven-black hair, and icy blue eyes made for a striking sight. Despite the fact that she had risen much higher in the government hierarchy by now, her uniform was pretty much the same — it was just that there were four stars on the insignia instead of three.

If anything had changed, it was that she seemed even more sleep-deprived than usual. If that was even possible.

Sunny found himself staring at her without meaning to… but for a very different reason than he had during their first meeting.

It was just good to see her, after all that time…

Jet stared back at him.

«You must be the Lord of Shadows.»

He nodded and answered evenly:

«You must be Soul Reaper Jet.»

She studied him for a moment, then raised an eyebrow.

«What's up with the Halloween costume?»

«Huh.»

Sunny tilted his head, contemplated her question, and asked seriously:

«What is Halloween?»

Jet blinked a couple of times. Eventually, she waved a hand at him.

«Never mind. I've heard a lot about you, Shadow. It's nice to finally put a face to the name. Well… sort of.»

«So, no one is going to explain to me who this Halloween is? Rude.»

Sunny frowned behind the mask.

«Only the good things, I hope.»

Jet grinned.

«Well. They say that you rule a Death Zone, eat Cursed Nightmare Creatures for breakfast, wrestle Titans for fun, and can turn into all kinds of terrible monsters on a full moon.»
