Cedric will wholeheartedly admit that he said those words out of fright and trepidation. It wasn't his intention to be rude; he's just frazzled because, out of all the things that he could see as soon as he regained consciousness, he was not expecting it to be a planetary-sized eyeball.
The air seemingly went still after he uttered his words. Cedric ntally scolded himself, thinking that he had ssed up. Although he couldn't be blad for it, it doesn't change the fact that his words were sowhat rude and disrespectful.
This entity, whatever it's supposed to be, was strong. Obscenely strong. Cedric didn't doubt this, even for a second. The only reason he's not having a ntal breakdown just yet is because he could tell that this 'entity' wasn't a demon. It wasn't human, but not a demon either.
"Co on, now. That's a bit rude. I'm more than just an eyeball," the entity said.
Following that, Cedric then saw a massive wave of stars covering the eyeball from above and below. He saw shooting stars colliding, space warping, and ti stilling at the very mont it happened, but at the very next second, the eyeball reappeared in his vision.
'Did it just...'
"I've got eyelids too," the massive eye sheepishly stated.
"Of course you do," Cedric absent-mindedly replied.
His initial guess was right. It blinked just now to prove the point that it has eyelids. Cedric didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this. That said, this should be a sign that this entity didn't an him harm, right? If it does, Cedric will be dead by now.
"I'm sorry. I'm just...really confused, I suppose." Cedric sighed and admitted this. "How did I end up here? The last thing I rember is that a...fair lady wanted to experience sothing, yet all of a sudden, I woke up here. I'd appreciate it if you could enlighten about this."
"Well, there's no other way to say this, really. I snatched your consciousness and drew you into this place because I found you interesting," the eyeball replied.
Cedric felt a headache coming.
"Right, of course, and I guess I'm powerless to resist sothing like that."
A little bit of sarcasm and petulance were present in his words.
"Yeah, that's my fault. But hey, I didn't take you simply because I was rely interested. You qualified for a life-changing opportunity that I'm guarding too; that's the bulk of the reason why I took you in," the eyeball stated.
"An opportunity?"
"Yes!" The eyeball exclaid. "The consciousness of your world originally intended to expose you to the raw sight of the world beyond your own. From what I saw, that would've opened your eyes to the real state of your galaxy, allowing you to make plans and such. If you're lucky, you might even gain deeper insights about your Concept Laws."
'It knows...' Cedric muttered to himself. 'This entity knows about Acala and the Demon Race.'
Cedric suddenly turned wary. He still rembered that Acala was considered a 'rare resource' by the Demon Race. And although this entity isn't a demon, it might also be interested. This was enough for Cedric to psycho-analyze everything from this point on.
"Your world's extrely tiny." The eyeball sighed. "Moreover, it is isolated. If I wasn't alerted to your potential, I would've missed you completely."
"I don't an to sound rude or anything, but... what are you?" Cedric asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
