An Extra’s POV

~VWUUSH~

A portal opened within the KariBlanc Group's Official Building—a place separate from the usual Store.

It was much larger than the store, and with its large compound occupying a considerable amount of land.

Most importantly… it was on the surface.

The pristine white building did not belong in such a dreary place as the black market, so it's squeaky white walls and pristine compound radiated with beauty that could only be seen in the capital.

To the outside world, this was simply a Nobleman's property used for vacation once a year.

But in actuality, it served as the Warehouse of the KariBlanc Group within the capital.

It held items in stock, and it had a secret pathway that led to the Black Market.

Thanks to Lord Blanc's connection with a few Nobles, this was easily a thing he could accomplish.

This was also where Rebal Blanc's office was located; the same expanse where the glowing portal was opening up in.

"Hm…" He raised his head and saw the one who had visited him so abruptly.

It was none other than Ralyks.

His intimidating presence made the older man feel a weight resting upon his shoulders—a weight far heavier than what the current state of his empire made him feel.

He was a very cautious man, so he knew full well what these instincts of his told him.

The man in front of him was dangerous!

'I'm grateful to have him on my side, but…' There was no way to be at ease with him.

Not entirely.

Ralyks proceeded to sit on the chair right opposite where Rebal sat.

Only a pristine desk separated them
