An Extra’s POV

'This will be too easy!'

Adam's eyes bulged as he raised his blade above his head.

He had never stabbed someone, but he had seen enough violent movies to know how it was done.

He just had to thrust the dagger into Adonis' chest, and apparently, the blade would do the rest of the work.

Adam could feel saliva form in his mouth.

Whether this was due to him salivating, or merely a sign of nervousness, it was impossible to tell.

One thing was certain, though…

'I have to do this!'

Adam had already made up his mind.

His eyes gave off a murderous glare to represent this, and he strengthened his muscles as he prepared for the thrust.

'It's nothing personal, Adonis…' He mouthed, though his wide grin told a different story.

'… I just gotta do it!'

~WHOOOOSH!~

The blade sliced through the dark space around it as it descended to complete its task.

As it fell, Adam's eyes widened even further, as if waiting for the first sight of blood and guts gushing out of his target.

Much to his inescapable shock… that was not meant to happen.

~CLANG!~

The dagger was met with a golden field that surrounded Adonis' sleeping body, instantly causing the blade to shatter apart upon impact.

"W-what?!" Adam immediately forgot the need to remain silent as he witnessed the impossible.

The dagger's pieces instantly disintegrated into golden light, completely overwhelmed by the power of the field that was struck.

Before Adam could completely recover from the shock, however, he suddenly felt something grab on his throat.

The blurry movement of Adonis' hand had been too fast for his distracted eyes to register, so he didn't notice it until it was too late.

… Until Adonis' grip was completely pressed around his throat.

"So you finally showed yourself… class traitor."

As the odd, but familiar voice echoed in Adam's ears, he saw Adonis open his eyes.
