An Extra’s POV

"Rey Skylar, you are under arrest for violating the security code of the Royal Estate set up by the Royal Council of the United Human Alliance."

As Brutus declared all of this, he placed his hand on his sword, preparing to unsheathe it if the situation demanded for it.

Lucielle sighed and shook her head, as if she thought the entire thing was unnecessary.

Guards slowly approached Rey, their expressions connoting caution.

'I guess they're already labeling me as a criminal now…' Rey sighed internally.

He couldn't have predicted that the last hours of today would take such a sharp turn at the start of the day.

"Don't worry, Rey. I'll do everything within my power to ensure you get a fair trial." As Adonis said this, he tapped Rey's shoulder.

"You'll be fine. I won't let anything happen to you."

Hearing those comforting words from Adonis felt strangely pleasant to his ears.

Rey never really had a strong opinion on him except the fact that he went out of his way to look out for his fellow classmates.

However, right now… Rey couldn't help but feel deep respect for Adonis.

"Please do not resist." Brutus' voice overshadowed the calm vibe that Adonis already established.

Adonis stepped aside and allowed the soldiers to do their jobs, all the while looking empathetically at Rey as he was restrained with Adamantite Cuffs.

Adamantite was the strongest mineral in this world, so it only made sense that it would be used to restrain an Otherworlder.

Even if the Otherworlder was a weakling like Rey.

"Take him away."

Rey was led out of the room, with the guards all leaving behind him.

Rey stole a final glance behind him and saw multifaceted reactions from different people.

Some were confused.

Some were happy.

Some were unbothered.

And one… was sad.
