“He what? How? Why is that important?”

Was the question everyone asked at the same time in one form or the other. They almost thought he was just making a joke to waste their time or to simply throw them off but as the Room fell silent once again the Sin of Solace sat up to explain why such a small detail was so important.

“What is so hard to understand? Did I stutter? Or are you that dumb to not understand such simple terms? I had hopes for some of you but this is disappointing.”

Again he sounded so calm and collected as he mocked them. Making them feel like they have truly missed something, but in reality only Nephis could have figured out what he meant and after some time she actually had a moment of enlightenment.

“He stumbled just in time so the Attack of the Cursed Terror didn't fully get him.”

She said under her breath but still loud enough for everyone to hear.

“OH look, the autistic Bitch has some Brains after all. Do you want a treat for that?”

Nephis shot him a stare that could very well kill someone but the Sin of Solace laughed it off as he found Joy in how easy it was to get her blood to boil.

“To be fair you are actually correct, after Consuming another part of Weavers Lineage he fell into another seizure and let the Staff That guided him to the Heart of the Estuary drop to his Feet and it rolled right behind him. Moments later when the Nightmare was already falling apart the Vile Thieving Bird attacked him and in an effort to not Die from the Encounter with a Cursed Terror as a Master no less, he tried to flee but stumbled over the Staff. The Talons that should have sunken right into his Chest just ripped it open instead and damaged his Fate instead of removing it completely. God’s I wish I could have seen it from another Perspective. Seeing him scream with Horror and Pain would have been a nice ending for it all.”

Nephis hand twitched at his last comment. She was at her last reserves of patience and about to lash out at him but knew that there was nothing she could do.

‘I should ask Sunny to give this piece of shit a Body so I can burn him to a crisp right after. Could sunny even do that? Surely, it's Sunny after all.’

“And what did that Change? Why do you even know what would have happened? It's not like you can see alternative timelines…can you?”

The man with Sunny's body broke Out into Laughter once again. He had no such ability but the thought was hilarious for reasons that were as Vile as the rest of his existence.

“No I sadly don't. But now that you mentioned it Glutton, I would love to be able to. At least that would give me an infinite amount of timelines to see you all suffer over and over.”

He was left in his thoughts for a moment as the images of several different ways they could have all died, in all the situations Sunny had lived through with them, flashed through his mind. He was quickly pulled out of his crazy thoughts when someone clears their throat to catch his attention.

“What is it then? Now is the time to brag about your Greatness. I’m sure you enjoy this very much.”

Bloodwave commented while rolling with his eyes. He had not expected to be having such a tiring conversation when coming here but would do it again if it meant that he could repay his Depths by the man who saved his life when he was just a mere Master.

‘Arguably the most Powerful Master no doubt but still just a Master which made the Situation no less impressive and embarrassing on my end of course.’

He thought while waiting for the Sin of Solace to pull his thoughts together once more.

“I think it's time to bother the CRIPPLE again. You still have that Echo of yours, don't you?”
