An Extra’s POV

"There is a lot to discuss with you all. I can hardly find where to start from…"

As Conrad started his speech, his eyes appeared sullen. It seemed like he was both sad and determined to see everything through to the end.

He just had difficulty articulating his unfiltered thoughts.

"Let's start with the Royal Dungeon. It's been two days since the incident, so all of you must already know what went down from your friends and classmates."

Adonis had already given everyone a brief summary, but it was inevitable that the ones who participated would share the news.

Most of the students involved didn't want to talk about it, but as long as students like Justin existed, the news would eventually circulate.

"A good number of you were nearly killed by the Dragon within it. While it was a completely unprecedented and unforeseeable situation, we will take full responsibility."

By "We", Conrad meant the Royal Council—or the United Human Alliance as a whole.

Conrad went on to talk about how Dungeons operated and how Dragons had never been so close to the Capital before, hence making it more dangerous than ever.

Stuff like that

By the time he was done with the Dungeon Incident, uncomfortable faces could already be seen.

"Then, there was the issue of Alicia and Billy going missing. The two parties involved have decided that the details remain confidential, and I'd like to respect that."

In essence, no details about what happened would be told to the students.

Those in the Royal Council, extending to Lucielle and Brutus, already knew everything.

They also planned on punishing Billy for his actions.

However, since Alicia specifically told them not to broadcast what happened to everyone else, they had to listen to her request.

"We interrogated the parties involved too, and we found shocking news. Apparently, three of us five in the Royal Council were involved in criminal activities which have been tied to the incident with your two classmates."

Lord Knox and the two others were involved in dealings within the Black Market, Slave Trade, and other illegal activities.

The Otherworlders were shocked to find out all these things, and they didn't even bother hiding it.

The ones they trusted with their welfare had actually done so many atrocities under their noses. How could they even trust them anymore?
