Chapter 617 Simplest Weave

Sunny rehtly, causing the chain of his cage to rattle Attracted by the sound, Elyas woke up from his restless sleep and stared into the darkness, a tired expression on his young face

"Demon? What happened?"

In the next ainst the iron bars, and then another crash His partner's cage sidely, and at the highest point of its swing, a long arainst ibbet

Elyas flinched

"Wha what are you doing?"

Sunny growled, trying to express his intention as best as he could The young Awakened didn't kno to read the runic language he knerite, so this was the only way of communication between theh for the Flaw It didn't punish Sunny for not being able to deliver the truth, as long as he really tried to

Their cages hung diagonally, connected by his hand Sunny groaned, straining hisat the young man's pale face, Sunny took hold of the bars with two rab the Awakened by the throat

Elyas's eyes widened slightly, but he didn't even try to struggle The youth siaunt and emaciated, but still childishly soft face Instead, there was only confusion and trust

Sunny sighed

'What a fool If I wanted to, I could have snapped his neck right here and now…'

Of course, he had no such intentions Instead, Sunny brought the youth closer and stared intently at the steel collar wrapped around his neck, studying it He couldn't really see his own, so this was the next best thing

Elyas remained motionless for a while, then said:

It didn't matter, anyway He had already seen all that he needed to see The pattern of runes carved inside the collar, and the streah it… this hat he needed to disrupt

Sunny was going to have to work fast

Several days later, lookingat the botto at his hands Between theether, fore and hypnotic pattern Sunny had advanced a lot in his ability to thread shadow strings and loop theers… sadly, it was not without cost

The strings were ephemeral and unseen to anyone except him, which also meant that they could not interact with the material world However, they could interact with his flesh, which o of his fingers were h they had never existed

Even his phalanxes, reinforced by the evolved Bone Weave, had not offered the essence strings any resistance All that remained were two bloody stuled, but still in place Considering that there were eighteen of them left, he still had more than a human would Not that it di

It would have certainly been helpful to have a tool to work the black strings, instead of doing it with his bare hands… so like a needle, perhaps Coincidentally, he had one of those in his possession, a needle used by Weaver themself, no less But it was locked away in his Soul Sea, safely kept and utterly inaccessible inside the Covetous Coffer

So, he just had to endure and be very, very careful, lest the nuers diminished even further
