An Extra’s POV

Rey was still reeling from shock after everything he had just experienced.

He touched his face and remembered how the crazy girl known as Belle kept poking him and laughing about it.

"She's crazy…" Rey muttered with wide open eyes.

'If I wasn't careful… I would have completely fallen under her spell. That's too dangerous!'

Back then, when she was moving closer to him, his [Danger Sense] Skill kept sending alarms to his head.

Rey was so glad he listened.

He used [Blindness] to shut off his eyes and [Grand Sound Magic] to ensure his ears wouldn't hear a single thing that Belle said.

Since he knew the conditions for activating [Grand Charm], a Skill he already had, it wasn't too difficult to avoid it.

It wasn't until his [Danger Sense] died down that he deactivated his [Blindness] and allowed her words to be audible again.

He used the [Mimic] Skill to replicate Alicia's glowing eyes and his Class privilege let him fake the part of being under Belle's control.

If that hadn't been the case, he probably wouldn't have gotten away with it.

'It seems my Level isn't high enough to resist that Skill. It's too dangerous…'

Rey had the Skill, and he knew how it operated. He had also tested it out on monsters, but since every enemy he faced was considerably weaker than him, he never felt like it was too powerful.

But now he understood.

"It's in A-Tier for a reason…" He whispered.

"Still… to think that was her goal all along…"

Since he was in his right senses throughout the entire ordeal, Rey heard everything Belle mumbled to herself.

…. Everything!

'So she's after Alicia and Adonis, huh? That's insane. What did they ever do to her?'

Rey knew it wasn't any of his business, but he found such a radical switch in personality to be very perplexing for him.

'I guess I'm not the only one keeping secrets…'

Thankfully, from what he heard, she didn't plan on enacting her evil scheme anytime soon.

That meant they were both safe… for now.

"I should probably just pretend like I'm under her influence for the time being."
