An Extra’s POV

"Now then…"

Rey walked away from the Hobgoblin bunch and left them to their duties while he explored something else he had noticed in the process of fighting the Hobs and freeing the rest.

It was an opening that led somewhere else.

'I'm curious…'

One of the reasons for that was because the place was open. That meant it had to be available to the general populace.

Other than that, it was also glowing a little, so that meant it had to be special.

'Let's check it out!' Rey smiled as he approached the entrance.

He had to bend a little since it wasn't originally designed to fit a human. However, all things considered, the experience wasn't too uncomfortable.

The closer Rey approached the end of the hallway, he could sense what awaited him was.

'Don't tell me… no way!'

His eyes widened, but he quickly squinted them thanks to the light that radiated from the end.

Finally, Rey reached the end of the hallway and emerged into another massive clearing.

"Hehe… hehehehe…"

Rey slowly opened his eyes, ensuring he acclimated well to the light as he took in the ambiance that greeted him.

"Hahahahahaha…"

As his eyes now flickered open, he graced his sight with piles of Monster Cores.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

His laughter echoed throughout the great clearing, and his eyes could not stop shedding tears as he watched the immense stockpile of Monster Cores.

It was insane!

'There's at least hundreds of thousands of them here!'

They were in so many piles, and it was crazy just how abundant they were.
