Chapter 1437 One Pebble
Throughout the rest of the loop, Cassie continued to be a little off. The changes were subtle, but Sunny could easily spot them. After all, he had been going through these tribulations for a long time now... anything that was different from how things were supposed to go drew his attention. Cassie was clearly in a slightly dazed state — not unlike how he had been the first time around. Otherwise, she would have realized that having a persistent sense of déjà vu on an island where time endlessly repeated itself had to mean something.
Then again, she might have simply attributed it to the time loop and moved on. It was only Sunny who knew that the blind girl was acting differently from how she had in the previous revolutions. 'Why is this happening?'
Cassie was distracted because of her strange mental state, while Sunny was distracted because of Cassie. The cohort had slain the Cavern Terror, traversed the system of caves, and obliterated the swarm of black millipedes. Finally, they climbed out of the chasm and ventured into the misty forest. Now that it was submerged in darkness, Sunny found it much easier to move forward. He was in his element. He could also track the movements of the Nightmare Creatures populating this part of the island, not to mention the fact that he already knew what they were capable of. Some abominations had to be avoided at all costs, some could be challenged. It was easier to avoid the former, and not as hard to slay the latter. Armed with knowledge and the element of surprise, the cohort made swift progress. Eventually, there came a moment when Sunny told everyone to slow down and took the lead. Banishing the mist from a small area in front of them, he called:
"Effie! Do not..."
As soon as he spoke, a grey spear flashed toward him with tremendous speed, as if shot from a devastating siege engine. Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
Holding back a sigh, Sunny moved to the side and effortlessly caught the spear with his bare hand. The power of Effie's throw was scary enough to drag him back a few steps, but he easily kept his balance.
"...throw that damned spear at me!"
Nephis and Jet had barely had any time to react. They both stared at the deadly weapon held in his hand with astonishment.
'...It must have been hard on her.'
Effie always put up a carefree front, but he knew that behind it, she had known just as much heartbreak and sorrow as the rest of them... if not more. Making the decisions she had made, no matter right or wrong, could not have been easy.
In fact, it was the opposite. Every step of the way must have been frightening, heavy, and difficult.
'I have to get her out of this hellhole alive.'
They would deal with the rest later. ...Eventually, the revolution came to an end. And when the next one started, Sunny was startled by an unexpected noise. Looking back, he saw that Cassie had dropped the Guiding Light, which clattered and rolled across the deck. Her expression was frozen.
Taking a step toward the blind girl, Sunny lingered for a moment, and asked:
"What's the matter?"
Cassie slowly turned to face him and took a shallow breath. Her words were exactly what he expected to hear:
"Sunny. I... I... I remember."
