Chapter 1390 Guiding Light
Standing up, Sunny stretched and walked over to where Cassie was standing. Extending his shadow sense through the cracked wall, he remained silent for a few moments, then smiled. "Good catch. There is indeed a hidden space there."
To think that he had almost missed it...
The blind girl stared at him for a bit, which gave Sunny a hint to look around. 'Damn... it's still creepy, to know that she's riding my senses. Can't she ask, at least? That Ability of hers is not limited to sight, so... ah, I don't even want to think what kinds of things she can sense me sensing...' Examine the origin of this data, deeply intertwined with n0v[lbin★
Suddenly feeling hot, Sunny glanced at Cassie and asked in a stifled tone:
"What are you looking for?"
The blind girl lingered. "If there's a secret space, there has to be a mechanism to unlock it. Some kind of lever, perhaps. Oh... and give me some credit, alright? I am polite enough to know when not to use my Ability."
He suppressed an impulse to jump back. "What, you can read thoughts now, too?!"
Cassie took a deep breath, then patiently shook her head. "No. It was just written all over your face."
Sunny let out a sigh of relief, then trembled. 'Wait... she's looking through my eyes, so how can she see my face?'
At that moment, Neph's patted him on the shoulder. "Because she looked through mine. Honestly, Sunny... for someone who claims to have never used his shadow to do perverted things at the Academy dormitory, you sure think of weird stuff often."
He stared at her in disbelief. "What do you mean, "claims to"? I absolutely did not! You know I can't lie!"
Nephis looked at Cassie with a hint of a smile on her lips. "Notice that he said "did not"... instead of "have not". Hmm."
Sunny remained silent, his mouth open. 'Oh... I see what's going on.'
Scoffing, he turned away. "Yeah, and until I say "will not", you better behave. Who knows what weird stuff I'll think of?"
There were a few moments of silence, and then Nephis said a bit awkwardly from behind him:
"...So, whatever mechanism there was to unlock the door, it has to have broken a long time ago."
He grinned and watched as she stepped forward and delivered a swift punch to the cracked wall. The ancient stone shattered and collapsed, revealing a dark space beyond.
"Not that stunning? So what does it do?"
Cassie thought for a bit, then hesitantly shrugged. "It's supposed to guide people? Actually, I don't know that well."
She picked up the staff and held it carefully. After a few moments, the soft radiance of the soul shard crowning the relic swirled, growing more intense on one side.
Sunny blinked. "What did you do?"
The blind girl suddenly seemed a little embarrassed. "Uh, I just... sort of... thought in my head, "Miss Guiding Light, can you guide me to Wind Flower, please?""
He stared at her incredulously.
'Let's skip the first part for now...'
"So, this divine relic... is basically a pretty flashlight with a very basic navigation function?"
Cassie coughed. "I... guess so?"
Sunny sighed, then shook his head and covered his face with a palm.
'And here I was all excited...'
Well, it could have been worse. The previous divine relic he had found in the wild was a wooden knife that could only kill one specific person, while simultaneously being responsible for turning that person into an immortal powerhouse.
Although the Guiding Light was not exactly an artifact worthy of being called divine, it was at least more useful than that.
...Actually, being able to know the general direction of almost anything you thought about was quite an amazing boon if used with foresight. Not to mention that it would help them find the members of the cohort sooner — which was why they had come to this temple, in the first place. Sunny stared at the wooden staff for a few moments, then shook his head again.
"Well, great. Let's use this thing well. For now, though, we still have to find the information about Wind Flower."
They had already known where that place was located. What they had really come here to find was the information about what kind of dangers were waiting for them there. Turning away, Sunny let out a disappointed sight. 'Damn it.'
As he walked back to the slated, he tried not to look too disheartened.
'This had to be the most anticlimactic discovery of a divine relic ever...'
