Shadow Slave

Chapter 2279  Damned if You Don't

Sunny found himself in his current predicament due to Weaver's lineage — the forbidden inheritance of the nebulous daemon that Anvil had described as an horrid curse. Because of it, he had to hide himself from the world and avoid gaining attention.

However… since he was already cursed, it would be foolish not to take full advantage of the nebulous daemon's tainted inheritance.

Having more of it than he possessed already would not make any difference. Additionally, it was not like Sunny had to disappear without a trace and spend the rest of his life alone in obscurity — the daemons themselves were known to countless humans, after all. It was just that they had been mysterious and distant. Additionally, they existed in the shadow cast by the gods, other creatures of the Divine Rank, and Unholy horrors — the Seven Demons had not stood out too much in the crowd of mythical beings. It was only when Hope descended to a mortal realm and got close to humans that the real trouble had ensued.

The problem was that humanity only had three Supremes now, with no one above them. So, if Sunny were to reveal himself, he would gain far more attention than even Hope had attained.

In any case, he had already found three of the seven pieces of the Forbidden Lineage — Blood Weave, Bone Weave, and Soul Weave. Each had made him far more powerful, saving his life on numerous occasions…

Four pieces remained. These four pieces had been on his mind ever since he read the runes that Nether, the Demon of Destiny, left on the walls of the Ebony Tower.
