Chapter 154: Bone Weave
’Bone Weave...’
Sunny let the sound of it echo in his mind, overwhelmed by a feeling of savage joy. He didn’t know what that Attribute gifted him, yet, but was certain that it would be something special. The Blood Weave had saved his life so many times, after all...
And after his encounter with the Mordant Mimic, he learned that having strong bones was as important as having tenacious blood.
Shifting his gaze away from the runes, he stared at one of his hands, then made a fist. This was the arm that had been shattered by the vile creature, and then slowly healed while he was falling into the Sky Below. Even though Sunny had already been able to use it for the past few days, it used to feel weak, awkward, and slightly damaged.
But now, it was as good as new.
...More than that, actually. It was better than ever before.
All of his bones felt much more durable and resilient. Stronger. His joints seemed to be slightly more agile, too. His teeth felt as though they could crush stones and cut through metal.
The strangest change, however, happened to his fingers. It wasn’t very apparent, though. On the surface, it simply felt as though they had grown subtly more sensitive, the tactile feeling of touching things becoming deeper and richer. However, Sunny suspected that the true change was more profound. He just didn’t know what it was, exactly.
Blood Weave had altered his eyes in a very fundamental way, so Bone Weave had to have a lot of promise.
He ran his fingers across the soft surface of the Puppeteer’s Shroud, vividly feeling the silken fabric slide against his skin.
’...Neat.’
