Chapter 514: A fate worse than death
“Ah… I also want to apologize…” Sofia told Death while keeping her eyes tightly shut.
“Apologize? What for?” Death answered calmly, sounding more curious than anything else.
“Well… I did turn down your blessing for Sun’s when I had to choose, and there was also the [Avatar of Death] skill, and I put Leverle in a bad position with the paper doll…”
“Is that it?” Death asked, his voice peaceful as ever, “I appreciate the sentiment but you need not apologize. You are free to choose your own path in life; it would be disgraceful of me to take offense to such things. I am happy that Sorrow got to rebuild a family of her own, if anything.”
“I’m glad to hear that… Then, may I ask a few things?” Sofia tried, knowing that no matter what, her time here was limited, as the others were waiting for her outside.
“It would be my pleasure to answer.”
“Thank you very much, then, in continuation of our conversation… Can you tell me a bit more about Sorrow? Despite everything, I feel like I barely got to know her. I have interacted with Sun a lot more at this point…”
Death stifled a weak laugh, “The Sun is hard to avoid, after all, is it not?”
“Not that I mind, Sun has been extremely helpful to me so far,” Sofia started, after a second, thinking back to the sun temple’s quest, she finished, “most of the time.”
