章 1827: Cleansing

Hidden in the shadows, Sunny let out a secretive sigh of relief. 

The past week had been a terrible ordeal for Rain… but it had not been easy for him, either.

A long time ago, Sunny had told Rain that he could teach her how to wield a sword, how to traverse the Dream Realm, and how to kill her enemies… but he could not teach her how to be strong. The world was a cold and ruthless place, and his little sister was much too soft to endure its cruelty.

Even now, all these years later, she retained that softness. She had learned how to wield weapons, survive in the wild, and hunt down abominations, but her nature was still the same. Rain had never suffered heartbreaking loss, had never felt the lightless depths of true despair, and had never faced the darkest sides of humanity. 

Despite her cool appearance and tough reputation, at her core, she was still the same kind and sweet girl.
