Sunny stared at the ground, confused.
'What just happened?'
Why did the Spell call that thing an Ascended Reflection? What was a Reflection? And why was it Ascended instead of Fallen?
How could a Nightmare Creature be Ascended?
He frowned.
'...Was it not a Nightmare Creature? How is that possible?'
The apparition was definitely not a human, so what else could it be if not one of the Dream Realm's abominations?
And one more thing…
The Spell did not say that his shadow had grown stronger, did it?
To make sure, Sunny checked the number of his shadow fragments. Just as he had suspected, it didn't change. He even dove into the Soul Sea, and saw that there was no new shadow among the rows of the creatures he had slain.
'This is very, very strange.'
What the hell had he just killed?
