An Extra’s POV

Night soon arrived, and for most that meant turning to the comfort of their beds and venturing into the realm of sleep.

However, for one man, the night held a different meaning.

It was a call to shed his natural identity and don another one.

From an average nobody… to the most powerful man whose power was shrouded in mystery.

Thus, under the shade of the dark clouds and dull moon, the Dark Adventurer was born.

—The one known as Ralyks

'Looks like I can finally return to the KariBlanc Group…' Rey thought, already completely outfitted as his alter-ego.

As he stood in his room, ready to open a portal to his rendezvous point with his other allies, he mulled over a few things.

'Alicia and I really took our time talking today. I guess she really is nervous about tomorrow.'

Rey had explored every nook and cranny of the place, so there really wasn't anything to be worried about.

He already knew how strong everything was, and he had designed the perfect map that would lead them down the path of the Dungeon.

'She doesn't know that, though, so I understand her nervousness.'

Rey knew he would never put her life in any kind of danger, though.

'We still haven't talked about the incident… but I think she still has some trauma from then.'

In all fairness, he also hadn't revealed the truth about him being Ralyks as well. In a way, they had their secrets that they were hiding.

That didn't in any way diminish their friendship.

'I guess we both have our reasons for keeping secrets.'

Based on everything he had seen thus far, he could clearly say that it didn't matter whether she told him about the incident or not.

They were still good friends.
