An Extra’s POV

As Rey stepped out of the abandoned shack with Gus, he kept his entire body under control.

He could tell that he was trembling within, but thankfully no one could notice it.

Ah, and this time it wasn't due to fear, or some other fickle emotion like that.

'Billy, you…!'

There was only one feeling that currently swiped within Rey at this point—enough to make him grit his teeth and widen his eyes with emotion.

… Pure, unbridled rage.

'You did all this!' He fought not to clench his fist, or hit anything in sight.

But his overflowing anger needed a conduit.

He needed one so badly.

Alas! They were out in the open, within the slums of the Black Market,

Rey knew he couldn't act very brashly now, especially with Aldred and Yuri watching him so intently since he appeared from a distance.

'I don't know if they're suspicious of me for not killing anyone, but…'

For now, they probably weren't going to make a move against him.

Rey just knew he had to keep his guard up.

'Right now, I better save up all I'm feeling for when we arrive at the location…'

He pictured Alicia in trouble, and the foolish Billy being right beside her.

'The idiot let himself be captured as well… he's just—!'

"So, what now, Sir Ralyks?"

Rey was interrupted by Aldred's words, causing him to snap out of the realm of thoughts.

He had already made it to the presence of his two KariBlanc helpers, and with Gus right next to him, the next thing on the list was what the next step would be.

"We're heading to the Slave Trading Storage Facility—the one where they keep some of their merchandise."

Rey wanted to tell Aldred and Yuri that they could leave the rest to him, since he didn't want them to have any knowledge of Alicia.

If they knew of Alicia's identity, they could either deduce his, or use her as leverage on him.
