Shadow Slave novel Chapter 2397

Chapter 2397 To a Flame

Sunny froze.

He was not being subjected to a distressing attack, and yet, that did not make him feel any less alarmed. If anything, he felt more shaken than he would have if the Puppeteer had thrown all its profane power into an obliterating assault.

Because despite the fact that the world had changed, and Sunny himself was vastly more powerful now than he had been before, one truth remained the same since the turbulent days of his youth. It was that among all the horrors of the Nightmare Spell, none were more sinister and harrowing than the ones who could speak like humans.

'Damnation.'

He glanced up and studied the motionless Puppeteer, who loomed far above him like a black insectile cliff.

'Don't answer, don't answer, don't.'

Then, his lips moved on their own:

".Who's speaking?"

There were a few seconds of silence, and then the soft voice resounded from nowhere - it was as if the wind itself was answering:

"I am Moth."

Sunny narrowed his eyes, unsure what to say. The Cursed Tyrant was talking to him. The frightening moth perching atop the mountain was engaging him in conversation, and on top of that, it was polite and soft-spoken.

'What the hell.'

He exhaled slowly.

"Why are you talking to me, though?"

The Puppeteer remained silent for a moment, then answered with a question of its own.

".Why not?" _{freēwēbnovel.com}

Sunny could not help but let out a stifled chuckle.

'This is ridiculous.'

His Flaw still forced him to answer, though.
