An Extra’s POV

"Sir Ralyks… there's another issue to address."

Rey could already feel himself getting excited about the upcoming event that he barely caught what Rebal said.

"Is it still about the Dark Gathering?" He asked.

"Yes."

Rey felt interested, so he perked up his attention and gestured for Rebal to continue.

"The Dark Gathering is in four days, and the journey from here to the Allied Merchant City takes about three days. If we want to leave, we have to go as soon as possible."

With the tone Rebal used, Rey could already figure out the undertones that were implied.

'It's possible that Scylla tries to delay our arrival so that we end up missing the Dark Gathering, hence killing Rebal and everyone else.'

It was a pretty easy way to get rid of their adversaries.

'If I thought about it, there's no way they didn't consider it too.'

In order to be safe, it was easy to leave as early as possible, and even that wouldn't ensure they would make it in time.

But…

"There's no need to concern yourselves with that. I can easily teleport you to the Merchant City when the time arrives." Rey shrugged.

"A-ah! That's true!" Rebal beamed, and so did the rest of his audience.

Seeing such a sheepish expression from the older man made Rey feel a strange sense of satisfaction.

'I haven't been to the Merchant City yet, but I have traveled somewhere close. If I teleport there and navigate my way to the City, I should be good…'

It probably wouldn't take more than three to five hours, so Reyn wasn't particularly concerned about it.

"You can begin your preparations, though. We can also trick the enemy by pretending like you left early so they can make more obvious moves."

In the end, it was beneficial for Scylla and her New Order to believe that the Blanc and Verte house were at their mercy.

'Let's see how it goes. For now, though, there's something else I want to try.'

Rey decided it was time to wrap things up with the KariBlanc Group and venture somewhere else.

Once he rose to his feet, everyone followed.

After they bowed to him and thanked him profusely, he waved them farewell and teleported away.

To the three who observed him leave, they only saw a dark hero who would save them from certain doom.

However, the true man under the mask was a tiny bit different.
