An Extra’s POV

Aldred Winsley sat on his desk early in the day, just like every other day.

Business in the KariBlanc Group's Central Building didn't really pick up until late evening/night, but a few customers preferred coming when there were fewer eyes on them.

As a result, diligent workers like Aldred had to make themselves available.

Aldred behind on his luxurious desk, taking care of some paperwork while waiting to be called for any 'special case.'

His hair was stylish, as always, and his formal attire was neat and properly—to the utmost limit.

Even though he was all alone in the room, with no one watching him whatsoever, he went about his business with as much finesse and dedication as possible.

He was just about to pick up another file when he finally got the call.

It was from his Enchanted Bracelet.

~Out Esteemed Guest is here for you, sir. He says he wants to meet with you and it's urgent!~

The moment Aldred heard this, he jumped to his feet that very instant.

There was only one person that he told the other workers to call 'esteemed guest' when calling him about them.

'It's Sir Ralyks!"

Aldred had a mixed expression of both surprise and relief.

He was glad to see that their best seller hadn't abandoned them, and he had even come sooner than expected.

However, that didn't stop Aldred's surprise at the entire situation. After all…

'He only arrives in the afternoon. What's this new arrangement?'

Besides, after their first meeting, it was obvious that Aldred was always going to attend to him or his subordinate no matter what.

'So why did he bother asking to see me; and he says it's important as well?'

He began to get goosebumps, but he knew he couldn't afford to be crippled by the uncertain future ahead of him.

'I can't dawdle for too long, else he'll think I'm disrespecting him!'

Sir Ralyks was not only the best seller to their KariBlanc Group, he was also someone with a Skill in the realm of Absolutes—The S-Tier.

If he didn't want their organization to perish, all possible respect had to be attributed to this man—whoever he was.

"Tell him I'm on my way. I'll be with him shortly." As Aldred rushed out of his office, he uttered these words to the one who called him.
