Shadow Slave
Chapter 48
“We need to move, now.”
As Nephis turned to him, Sunny grabbed Cassie and helped her stand up. His face was even paler than usual, and there was a panicked look in his eyes.
“Now! Help me get her back on the scavenger!”
The silver-haired girl raised her head and looked at the sky. Soon, her expression darkened. Without saying anything, she did as he had asked.
Cassie seemed a bit disoriented. She grabbed the reins and helplessly turned to her friend:
“Neph? What is going on?”
Changing Star glanced at her. When she eventually spoke, her voice sounded heavy.
“A storm is coming.”
Meanwhile, Sunny sent his shadow to climb on top of a tall pillar of coral and looked ahead, trying to understand how far the cliffs they were aiming for were. From the look of it, there was still a considerable distance to go. However, the giant statue was already much further away.

He turned to Nephis:
“We’re about three or four kilometers away from the cliffs. Do… do you think we can make it?”
She scowled.
“If we take the most direct route. Maybe.”
Sunny hesitated, then asked:
“What about the monsters?”
Changing Star looked ahead and gritted her teeth.
