Chapter 690 One Question

Some time later, Sunny left the roo garden of the Sanctuary The cohort had intended to talk to Noctis together, but after his boest all the new information and decided to stay behind

'Understandable…'

In truth, Sunny wanted to be alone for a few ht decision, revealing his secrets was… an uncoht had been lifted off his shoulders, a bit, but also rattled and uneasy He felt naked

Sunny could use a little solitude to gather his thoughts, too

After the initial shock, he had gone intohow a Divine Aspect worked, and the circumstances of how he earned it However, it was not like he knew a lot about this

It had helped the others better understand his powers, as well as that of Nephis… and, most importantly, of Mordret Now, they were as ready to face the Prince of Nothing as they could be, should a conflict with hiht into Sunny's powers, their already profound synergy as a battle unit was bound to grow even s to himself, as well The difference was that if before there had been a strange dynamic between him and his friends, where they pretended to not know that he wasn't being entirely honest with them, and he pretended to not know that they kne, the existence of those white spots had been openly acknowledged by his he wasn't ready to share, and why he was reluctant to do so They seemed to respect his wishes

All in all, it went surprisingly well

Walking through the beautiful garden, which was illuht of the full moon, Sunny enjoyed the tranquil air of the Sanctuary At soht entered his mind:

'I wonder… was this decision of ree, by Hope's poison? If so… what deep desire ofhonest with htful, Sunny approached the door of the sorcerer's lair, waited patiently for the Sailor Dolls to open it, and walked inside

'Maybe I was always…'

His eyes suddenly narrowed, and his hand shot to the side, ready to grasp the shaft of the Cruel Sight So inside the dark hall… a thick, nauseating s through his own It surrounded hih a terrible massacre had just taken place in the immortal sorcerer's quarters

…But Sunny did not see any corpses The central chamber was just as he had left it the last time — empty of all furniture, with a vast circle of runes drawn on the stone floor No, not entirely the sah so devastating pressure on the ancient stones

Noctis was still in the center of the circle One of his sleeves was rolled up, and there was a deep cut on his left wrist, a strea down like a crimson ribbon In his other hand, he held the diamond sickle The sorcerer was surrounded by a shallow pool of blood, however, it soarments

Sunny stared at hi that the stone surface… seeripped the e to kill yourself?"

Noctis slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Sunny, and s out of the ordinary was happening, he wiped the diaarment, and stoop up:

"What? Of course not! I'ave hi? You are at least a thousand years old"

The sorcerer tilted his head, scratched his cheek with a thoughtful look, and then shter:

"What? Of course not! I'm too beautiful to die!"

Happy with himself, Noctis somehow made the cut on his wrist close, jumped over the pool of blood, and walked toward Sunny with a relaxed expression

"Coarden is nice and chill, though"

Sunny threw one last look at the disappearing pool of blood Did he ihtly, just then? Shaking his head, he turned away and followed Noctis outside

Together, they slowly headed for the Altar Island Noctis seearden a lot… a h, he broke it with a carefree question:

"So, what did you want to tell me? Have you and your friends come to a decision?"

Sunny hesitated for a moment, then answered:

"We did We… will help you free Hope"

Noctis grinned

"Oh, wonderful!"
