Shadow Slave: Book1

Product Information

Sunny did not know what the daughter of the Queen of Worms was doing, but he felt as if something vast and terrifying silently moved past him, and then enveloped the white sands of the desert. He dived into Nephis' dream with the help of Nightmare. [217] In that dream he told her he missed her but then questioned her about leaving him behind. [218]

He told both Kai and Effie about his [Fated] attribute to explain why he had gone for a month. [202] Sunny is affected by the Nightmare Spell alongside many others and has to prepare to survive as his life is about to turn completely around. He has to forcibly challenge the first nightmare, a dreamworld where the Nightmare Spell leaves the challengers in a hellish environment with dangerous enemies. I've been writing novels and short stories since I was a young teen. God has greatly impacted me, and I now desire to honor the Lord with my life and writing. The sun was setting, and they were still running as fast as they could. His exhaustion had long transformed into something much more dire and primal. Sunny had not even known that an Ascended body could be that drained of... everything. One of Sunny's wishes is to be taller and that was granted when he challenged his Second Nightmare though the body given by the Spell to him was not that of a human.The Spell is not fair, it is cruel and unpredictable. But Sunny is from the slums of a futuristic dystopia - more akin to a Warhammer 40k hive city than a modern day city - if anyone could survive it, it's him. He isn't honourable, he values his life, holds grudges, is woefully underprepared and underpowered for most of his journeys... But he learns, he adapts, and he courts death through the Spell's countless trials. Before he could, however, Seishan outstretched her hands, bringing her thumbs and index fingers together in a perfect triangle. Then, a drop of dark crimson liquid suddenly materialized in the air within the triangle.

Sunny had been aiming to achieve his freedom which had his real goal all along. However, he found himself bound to more people, places, and things than ever before. He was bound by his own desires. This realization led him to question the power of the Demon of Desire, which had been one of the most powerful among the daemons, except for Weaver. He considered whether being bound to people, ideas, and values was a good thing, as he had chosen these bonds himself. Despite this, a small part of Sunny rebelled against this, wanting to be free and unrestrained. He had to finish his mission, which was to evacuate the citizens of Antarctica, and then explore other options. Despite his distant dreams, Sunny remained calm and determined, possibly recognizing his true conviction. [84] Attribute Description: "Deep within your soul, an ember of divinity shines, almost ready to erupt into a radiant flame."

Nightmare Spell

For example, pouring all of their power into the Cruel Sight made it somewhere around fifteen times deadlier. This scale of enhancement went well beyond the confines of its Rank, making the spear as powerful as a Transcendent weapon. It was the same if applied to armor. [70] Anyways I don't like him being slave to her, I'd rather he be a slave to the shadow God or the system by mistake, like the system was the first to call his name so it would have been funny if it recoignized the system as his master, that would have been far better than this. He admitted that he was contrarian and antisocial enough to balance the agreeableness of people who chose the life of service. [73] Apparently, both Nephis and Obel thinks that he underestimates himself and his abilities. [74] [75] however i kinda dislike how little characters outside of the mc develop as if all the stuff happening does not effect their decision-making at all. we get some of that but lots of wasted potential imo. He opened up to Nephis about his family, especially his sister when he asked her about her goals. [192]

Sunny knew how precious and fragile trust was. He had taken time to extend his own trust toward Effie and Kai, but his friends respected his silence and did not push him to reveal his secrets. [83] He did not know much about astronomy but due to being born during a solar eclipse, he knew a thing or two about eclipses. [214]

Spell Runes

Miraculously, they had managed to escape all but one of the taken corpses. The last one still pursued them, never letting the group - now reduced to only seven people - stop and rest for even a minute. The [Mantle] trait activated the Attribute, making it assume the form of a full suit of armor. Sunny did not have to spend essence to summon the Mantle, as it was simply a transformation of the [Shell]. In its active form, the Attribute awakened its full power, allowing the effects of [Stalwart], [Living Stone], [Underworld Armament], and the [Feather of Truth] to reach their full potential. Unfortunately, wearing another armor-type Memory on top of the Mantle was out of the question. [40] He carved something beneath the lines that marked the days he had spent living in the ruined cathedral. There were two runes left on the wall: One meaning sun and the other meaning loss. [191] For the [Shell] trait, Sunny's skin remained soft and elastic, but when enough pressure was applied, it can become hard as stone. Basically, it is a passive resistance to all kinds of damage. [40] It might be that the Spell does not consider him a human. After all, he was a divine shadow and shadows recognized him as one of their own. In this context, his own kind were actually not humans but shadows instead. [212]
