Shadow Slave novel Chapter 2282

Chapter 2282 Dark Explorer

Far away, a mountain of shattered black stone towered above the sea of dust like a titanic gravestone. The ground around the gravestone was littered with the bones of numerous Nightmare Creatures that had perished here… the human bones were buried some distance away, protected from the elements by a barrow.

A stone colossus was kneeling on the ground, unmoving, holding its severed hand gently in two titanic hands. These were the ruins of the Crimson Spire.

Sunny — another one of his incarnations — was in the very heart of the ruins, sitting on the edge of a deep well with a thoughtful expression on his face. At the bottom of the deep well was a vast pool of black water. Its surface was perfectly still and flat, like that of a dreadful mirror made from pure darkness. Subtle ripples spread across the surface of the imprisoned ocean of darkness from time to time, as though it was straining to spill over the edges of the pool and break free. It was the Dark Sea. Once, a long time ago, the Dark Sea had seemed like a force of nature — as in something so inconceivably vast and overwhelmingly destructive that Sunny could not even fathom confronting it. He could barely survive battles with scavengers that hid from the sea and fed on the morbid gifts it left behind, while facing the beings that actually dwelled in the dark waters was a death sentence.

But things were different now. Now, Sunny knew that the Dark Sea was a Great Titan — a profane being born from the darkness that once dwelled in the radiant figure who had fallen to this land… before this land was called the Forgotten Shore.

That radiant figure had most likely been a nephilim — or maybe an angel — wounded in one of the battles of the great war between the gods and the daemons. The inhabitants of the land where it had fallen killed the radiant being and unleashed the curse of darkness onto their entire realm. That curse later became the Dark Sea. In any case, the Dark Sea was a Great Titan now… and Sunny himself was a Supreme Titan.

Strangely enough...

They were equals. It was an odd thought. But no matter how strange being equal to the Dark Sea, which had once been like a symbol of inevitable and inescapable death, was… Sunny knew that he could kill it. He was just not sure how to go about it. There were the numerous Nightmare Creatures dwelling in the sealed sea — slaughtering them would greatly enhance Shadow Legion's capacity to participate in naval battles. But those abominations were not the Great Titan itself. In truth, Sunny could sense that there were seven great masses of darkness hiding somewhere in the impenetrable depths. He did not know what they were, but finding and destroying them would probably result in the death of the Dark Sea. He was contemplating if he wanted to dive into the black water and try his luck…

One thing was stopping him, though. 'Curses.'
