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.'

With all of these factors culminating in his mind, Rey began to wonder if he wasn't doing too much at once.

However, he quickly tried to defend his actions.

'The KariBlanc situation and the Esme matter aren't totally unrelated. There are overlaps.'

In the process of taking down the cancer that was the Criminal Underworld, he could look for her friends and help them,

'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.

'Or maybe… their sale has been postponed.'

With the way the market was a bit unstable, it was probably better to wait things out and not take too many financial risks.

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.'

The Raid was his initial commitment, and since he needed the Otherworlders to grow very strong, it had the most priority.

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.
