An Extra’s POV

Night arrived, and under the canopy of darkness, some strange movements were afoot.

A caravan of goods trailed in the shaded world, with the ones responsible for them—the drivers of their respective carriages, and the watchers of the goods—performing their duties with absolute precision.

Their task was simple and straightforward, yet also enough to cause crippling anxiety.

A simple transportation of goods from one position to another; something the KariBlanc Group had engaged in numerous times.

They already had their specialized routes, and their transportation network was flawless.

At least, that was what they thought until goods started going missing and they found themselves unable to communicate with their couriers.

This downward spiral continued on until they stopped transportation altogether.

However, the current couriers had no fear that anything of that sort could happen to them now.

After all, they could all see the young lady who was with them.

She was in a carriage—one of the many being pulled by the powerful horses that were used for jobs like this.

The entire carriages were made using Enchantments, enabling them to be silent during transportation.

The horses could also be barely heard thanks to the couriers being experts that specialized in Skills like [Silence] and [Illusions].

In essence, unless someone intentionally sought them, and was incredibly powerful, there was no way they could be detected in the shadow of darkness.

The young lady that gave everyone confidence had pink hair and a cute appearance. She looked like she was in her early twenties; having a cheerful appearance that oozed nothing short of pure adorableness.

She had an oversized long-sleeved shirt on, with baggy trousers and simple shoes. She had no ornaments on—at least, none that were evident.

Her name was Yuri, and everyone within the KariBlanc Group knew her as the strongest warrior they had.

She was efficient and thorough, and contrary to what her appearance would make anyone assume… she was ruthless.

As if Yuri wasn't enough for the mission, there was one more person within the carriage.

This man made the couriers tremble in nervousness; forgetting the familiar solace that Yuri offered.

His presence was both reassuring and unsettling, and his silence made them shiver.

His name was Ralyks, and he currently sat opposite Yuri in their carriage as they sped through the darkness.
