You've grown a lot stronger since the last time I've seen you.
"..."
"Stop talking inside my head."
The figure's eyes narrowed slightly.
Seems like you've also gotten enough gall to talk back to me.
It approached me, stopping just a few steps away.
Amon, you seem to have forgotten the deal we've made in the past. Are you going back on your word?
What word?
Moreover, what deal?
The last time we talked, I blacked out right after this thing mentioned a contract.
And I know for a fact I would never accept any kind of contract.
So just what was this thing talking about?
The two of us just stared at each other, until eventually, the being turned around and walked back to its earlier spot.
With its back turned, it spoke once again:
Regardless of your insubordination, how has your progress been?
I had a feeling this thing wasn't exactly asking about my progress, but something else entirely.
So I decided to gamble a little.
"It's nearly done."
And thankfully I did.
