An Extra’s POV

"Ehhh? For real? I really asked a question in class today?"

"Yeah! Don't you remember?"

"It feels kind of hazy, to be honest. Almost like a dream…"

Rey walked past a group of students who were talking very loudly.

He recognized them to be Justin and his closest friends, and Rey simply acted like he didn't know them. Likewise, they ignored his presence.

Either that, or they genuinely didn't notice him.

He was just coming back from the library, so Rey made for his room where he planned to figure things out in solitude.

However, before he could reach his room door, he was approached by someone.

"Hey, Rey."

Rey was initially startled to hear someone call his name, but after recognizing the voice, he realized he shouldn't have been surprised.

Bracing himself before turning back to see who called his name, Rey sighed slightly.

'Let's get this over with quickly…'

He turned to see the Hero, Adonis, smiling at him with a pleasant smile on his face.

Behind him were two students whom Rey recognized.

'Billy and Belle, huh? I wonder what they're doing together…'

Of course, he didn't change his expression in the slightest and maintained his dull demeanor.

"A-ah, Adonis. Hello." He responded, raising his hand slightly.

"I heard you weren't feeling too well today." Adonis drew closer to Rey, grabbing his hand softly.

'What the heck?! This guy—!'

Rey controlled his expression, but it felt weird having someone caressing his hand.

"How are you feeling now?"
