Shadow Slave: is this love?

Sunny was fucked. 

She—she exposed him!

That too, to his just now girlfriend!

"Pervert? How so?" Cassie asked with a smirk menacing enough to scare even Mordret!

Well... maybe not. He was a psychopath, but still!

"Cas- its not what it sounds like."

"So... are you telling me that you bothered to form a mask for Jet... with your flaw? It feels off...

Hmmm..." her grin twisted.

'Why did she have to remember that?' 

I mean... really. Why?

He looked at Jet... pleading for help.

...

She threw him under the damn bus, and looked away from him!

"It just... sort of happened like that! I can assure you I was not, am not, and will never be a pervert!"

A teasing smirk formed on her face, "Oh? Are you telling me her allegations and the rumors are wrong with your flaw? I mean they had nothing against you..."

'Why was Cassie this smart?' He thought bitterly.

"It just... sort of happened! I saw her Ascended badge and was a little shocked, and she just happened to see me looking!"

From the corner of his eyes, he saw Jet open her mouth.

And ofcourse, disaster struck!

"I faintly seem to recall you saying something like 'None as beautiful as you', are you sure you had no-"

"I am certain! And it was technically true because in the outskirts no one can compare to you!" He cut her off, he did remember his embarrassing thoughts mixed with his luck!

Yep, it was of him fantasizing being her slave!

"Author! You didn't have to remind me of that!'

He didn't remember it after meeting Cassie!

He turned red, and hurriedly changed the subject, "Anyways, do you all want to visit my Brilliant Emporium?"

Aiko would be proud of him right now!

'No... but why am I thinking about her being proud? What did the author do?'

"You just want to have more customers, don't you?"

Damn Steve!

"Now that you mention it... yes I did!"

Steve flinched, 'The author betrayed me!'

"Sunny! How dare you use us for business!" Cassie pouted.

This.

This was better than before.

He succeeded, or so he thought.

"Did your mind go to your innate ability while talking to Jet, back then?" Effie chuckled.

Th-this was abuse!

Abuse of Flaw!

A shadow rose, and punched a vase lying there, while Sunny quickly muttered a "Yes."

Everyone around him laughed, and Cassie—once again—pouted.

'Cute.'

Suddenly, without warning, she stepped closer and pinched him cutely, pulling him with his shirt.

"Let's go to the Emporium..." She told everyone.

They entered the Emporium, but first he took it to Ravenheart to meet his sister.

Blood related Sister.

His hope.

His reason for surviving until now.

Rain.

Soon after, he—once again—summoned the Emporium in Bastion.

He was rather lucky that one of his eight incarnations—Lazy—was here.

He did get him recently, just before achieving Supremacy.

He put a sign there, saying:

'Sorry for the leave.

Had something urgent.

Closing Tomorrow.

50% Discount!'

The best part? Nephis, Cassie, and the rest of the cohort would be seen heading there.

Ofcourse he made sure to do that, what idiot wouldn't? 

...

The people who had moral values.

But sunny, just like Aiko, wasn't them.

Not when it came to small stuff like this!

'This isn't small!' Sunny coughed.

[We're coming over now.] Cassie spoke in his head.

[Wait what about our date?] Sunny asked.

[You're a damn Sovereign now, you're not even supposed to run this cafe.]

...

There went all his fun.

Well... he knew it was gone, that was why he kept a sign of closing tomorrow!

Then again, Ki Song was going to attack soon. She must have sensed Neph robbing half of her domain!

Suddenly he heard a sound. 

VWOOP.

It was Steve.

Next came his whole cohort, together.

Steve and Sunny had different domains compared to Nephis, Song, Anvil and the Dreamspawn.

They didn't need people.

In fact, both of them, were having constantly growing Domains.

Steve had something called a "Command Block", "Spawning" things in his domain, thus making him grow.

The change was extremely small, and neglectable, but it was there.

BLOOPERS 1:

Sunny read the sign at the Brilliant Emporium:

'Sorry for the leave, business starting soon.

50% Discount!'

His whole cohort, and Steve, being there brought a lot of customers.

"Shouldn't you, instead, close the shop!? You're a damn Sovereign now, and can no longer show yourself to be a harmless Master!" Cassie screamed at him, like a mom to their child!"

"Oops" Sunny responded, looking at her innocently.
