Sunny watched the sun appear over the eastern horizon, his hearts growing cold. His vertical pupils narrowed, and his fists clenched.
The night… was over? Had it been that long, already?
He had lost the track of time during the vicious battle in the skies, but it seemed as though their desperate assault on the flying fleet had only taken a second.
But in reality, of course, it had not.
He slowly turned to Noctis, whose battered face had almost healed and was now calm and carefree again. The sorcerer was looking at the sky with a strangely neutral expression.
"Remind me… wasn't the plan to defeat Sevirax before dawn, when he was devoid of his vast and terrifying powers?"
The immortal sighed.
"Well, it's good to have a plan. However, plans rarely go as you want them to go."
Sunny gritted his teeth.
"So… what happens now? How are you going to deal with the dragon?"
Noctis shrugged.
The end is near!
I just published the last chapters of volume four, which will become available to everyone in a few days. Because of that, there won't be new chapters tomorrow. I'll be back the day after that, though :]
Cheers!
