An Extra’s POV

Conrad was stunned—no, beyond stunned.

He had never seen such a man in his entire life. This Adventurer had just said the bravest or the dumbest thing ever uttered in the world.

Conrad hoped it was the former, and not the latter.

'He wishes… to challenge the Dungeon alone?'

It was so absurd that the Grandmaster couldn't blurt it out.

"You can go ahead with your original plan of calling on Adventurers if you like. I won't stop you from making backup plans too."

As Ralyks said this, he began to move towards the entrance/exit of the reception.

"But I'll tell you now… it is all going to be pointless."

Conrad didn't know the kind of expression the man before him was making, but something told him it was a broad smile.

One that oozed nothing short of confidence.

"I'll be going in alone. And I'm going to rescue your people."

There was no uncertainty in his words. It was as if he could already see the future.

Conrad found his heart racing as he listened—as if he was a child listening to a fairy-tale, hoping desperately that it was all true.

He truly wanted to believe!

"H-how long… do you think… it'll… take…?" Before Conrad realized it, he stood to his feet and blurted out a question.

Knox and the Head Guard quickly glanced at him in shock, giving him faces that made it seem like he was insane,

Conrad knew he was behaving crazy, though.

Asking a question like that meant he was entertaining the possibility of such a thing being possible.

He—Grandmaster of the Royal Council—was granting credence to the illogical ramblings of a total stranger.

Conrad didn't care, though.

He only stared at the one called Ralyks and waited for his answer.
