Shadow Slave novel Chapter 2567

The Exploration Report on Everything had certainly caused quite a stir. Sunny had expected that he would be dealing with the consequences for quite some time... but who would have thought that something else was going to steal the spotlight in a matter of weeks?

Riding across the barren expanse of the Eastern Quadrant, Sunny looked at the sky and let out a wistful sigh.

Mordret was a Supreme now, which meant that from the point of view of the public, he was the second Sovereign of humanity. The news would spread among the population soon, and it was bound to take at least some of the attention away from the Exploration Report. After all, most people were more interested in the happenings of today than they were in ancient history.

Come to think of it...

Sunny's sigh was followed by a quiet groan.

"The King of Nothing."

With a title like that, as well as the timing of his ascent to the throne of Supremacy... Mordret was bound to be mistaken for Nobody, wasn't he? Sunny remained silent for a while, swaying in the saddle.

Then, he let a chuckle and said with a hint of vindictive amusement in his voice:

"Good... good! Let him draw the fire away for me."

Honestly, the idea of Mordret becoming the protagonist of countless ridiculous rumors and having his name dragged through the mud by unscrupulous gossip columnists was kind of appealing. The best part, though, was that the bastard would have no idea how he had ended up in that situation... and who was to blame.

Imagining Mordret's expression when crowds of misguided fools kept accosting him improved Sunny's mood a lot.

"Wouldn't it be fun, him attaining Supremacy only to find out that all people want to talk to him about is a research paper written by someone else?" Knowing Mordret, that would certainly thrown him for a loop. Not only because people would keep seeking him out for strange reasons, but also because he had no idea who Nobody truly was, either.

Sunny let out a wicked laugh.

Hearing it, Nightmare looked back and stared at him for a moment, then turned away and let out an absolutely terrifying, chilling neigh.

It seemed like he was expressing solidarity, or simply did not wish to be left out.

Sunny smiled.

"Right? You make a good point, buddy."

Sadly, his horse was not the best conversation partner, so they continued their journey in silence.

And speaking of silence and bad conversation partners...

Sunny's thoughts turned to a different event that had happened soon after he regained his senses.

'Oh, yes. There was that, as well.'

He thought back to a particular day on the Forgotten Shore.week
