Shadow Slave
Chapter 1748
Cassie was waiting for him near the same toppled tower as the last time. She was just as ethereally beautiful as the last time, too, bathed in moonlight and standing on the edge of tranquil water.
However, the atmosphere of their meeting was different today.
It was more… familiar, somehow. Perhaps even friendly.
When Sunny emerged from the lake, Cassie smiled faintly.
«Sunny.»
He brushed his wet hair back and smiled, as well.
«Lady Cassia.»
She shook her head lightly.
«It feels unfair that you are still maintaining decorum after insisting that I should be more informal. Call me Cassie, please.»
He hesitated for a few moments, then nodded.
«Alright, Cassie. Shall we go? I am hoping to explore as much of the mirror labyrinth as possible tonight.»
She nodded and offered him her small hand.
Sunny took it and pulled them both into the shadows, teleporting straight to the underground chamber they had discovered before, This time, there was no need for her to guide him deep into the ruins of the Castle, erasing the memories of the Knights patrolling it.
The chamber had not changed at all, which was a relief. Sunny vividly remembered the warning Cassie had given him about the Others, so he was wary of the beings that lived inside the mirrors in the former stronghold of the Demon of Imagination.
Summoning the Shadow Lantern, he drowned the maze in shadows without wasting any time. Soon after, Sunny and Cassie continued to explore the labyrinth.
«This place is vast…»
They had wandered it for hours the last time, and were not making any noticeable progress tonight. Slowly, Sunny was starting to grow wary.
He remembered the Nightmare Desert and the black pyramid standing at its center. No matter how long one walked across the white dunes, the pyramid never drew closer… was there some sort of trickery preventing him from reaching the heart of the labyrinth, as well?
They walked in silence for a while, but quickly grew bored of it.
Eventually, Cassie spoke:
«I must admit, Master Sunless… Sunny, You are a fascinating man.»
He raised an eyebrow.
