Chapter 1427 Unexplored Opportunities

There was no point in trying to get back to the Chain Breaker. The cohort had spent too much time traveling to the far side of the island, and there was not enough of it left. Which was not to say that this revolution was useless.

Sunny had learned how to craft weapons from the Hollow Butterfly. Next time, he would be able to do it faster. He had also learned how to kill the Cavern Terror... next time, he would be able to kill better. The same went for the several abominations they had fought in the misty forest. Especially due to the fact that Cassie had told him more about the nature and powers of those creatures. Some of the things he had already deduced, but others were a complete revelation. Every revolution brought Sunny closer to the goal. At least...

At least he hoped so.

Currently, the members of the cohort were resting not far from the spot where they had found Effie. The huntress was greedily devouring the provisions from the Covetous Coffer, while Jet was trying to explain the nature of the time loop to her. Nephis still seemed a little dazed after learning of Effie's condition, and Cassie had silently merged into the background, like she always did.

It was easy to forget that she was even here. Sunny, meanwhile, sat a little distance away, staring into the mist. 'Actually, it's a bit awkward.'

His thoughts were somber. Despite how much he tried to not let the nature of time on Wind Flower affect his mindset, he was still growing more and more reliant on the time loop. For him, this revolution was as good as done — they were not going to make it back in time, so there was no point in trying. Mentally, Sunny was already considering what to do next time. However, the situation was entirely different for his companions. For them, there was no next time. Even if they knew that time would repeat itself, it was not the kind of thing one could really make peace with. So, they must be feeling both strange and desperate about this sudden inaction. 'There's time to do something, I guess.'

He had been considering unleashing it for a while now. What stopped Sunny before was the desire to learn more about Wind Flower first. But he had already explored most of it, at least tentatively. Was there a reason to wait?

Only one...

He was exhausted.

Sunny stared bleakly into the mist. 'The Mirror of Truth and the fragment of Shadow's Domain. I'll try them next.'

But first... he really needed a break. Assessing these two tools would go much better with a fresh mind. Glancing at the members of the cohort, Sunny hesitated for a few moments, and then asked:

"Do you guys... want me to do anything specific once the next revolution starts?"

When was the last time he had a real day off, free to do anything he wanted... or do nothing at all? Even in the periods of relative calm, Sunny had always been burdened by the need to accomplish so many things. This time, he wasn't going to bother.

He was just going to... rest. A hint of excitement suddenly bloomed in his ragged heart.
