An Extra’s POV

"Congratulations, Alicia."

Ralyks' voice echoed throughout the devastated field as he approached, his dark cape and cloak now fluttering behind him as he walked towards her.

She was still kneeling, the rabbit in front of her, as she looked at him.

"This is quite an impressive summon." He added.

The moment he got a bit closer, the rabbit turned away from Alicia and glared at Ralyks.

'E-eh…?' The girl thought to herself, wondering where all the hostility was coming from.

"It appears you don't like me very much, Alicia. I have to say, that's a little hurtful…"

Alicia felt bad hearing that. She realized her Familiar must have sensed her dislike for Ralyks and acted accordingly.

"No, Snow. He's not an enemy." She quickly patted the white fur of the cute creature, and the thing finally backed off.

The Familiar returned its gaze to Alicia, rushing towards her bosom for something akin to an embrace.

"Looks like it desires to be petted. Do you have experience with animals?" Ralyks asked, almost amusedly.

Alicia smiled as she tickled the belly of the rabbit and gently stroked its head.

"Yes. I have… erm, cats back home. You may not know them, but…"

Alicia thought she saw Ralyks take a few steps back and shudder for a second, but that was probably her imagination.

"A-anyway… I don't think I'll have a problem catering for her."

"Her? What made you draw such a conclusion?"

"I just know it within myself." Alicia responded, stroking the rabbit even more.

The little guy seemed to be enjoying every moment of it, but Ralyks had to ruin the fun with a bit of unnecessary information.

"It's a Beast made of Mana. There's really no Gender or Sex you can give it."
