An Extra’s POV

'Haaa…'

As Rey lay on his bed, he heaved a heavy sigh and went through everything that had just happened.

It was hard to believe that after everything, it was still morning.

'Things got a lot more complicated than I expected.'

The whole thing with Esme was one thing, and now the KariBlanc Group was another.

'I also have to handle the Raid.'

'There's the possibility that she already took over Redarts' domain.'

If that happened, then the chances of the slaves being sold already was an option.

Since that was the crux of the matter, he didn't think doing both was going to be an issue.

'The problem is how to balance Raiding with them.'

There was no way he could put that on the back burner.

'I just have to find a way to make it work.'

Rey looked around his room and realized it was a bit messy.
