An Extra’s POV

Chapter 278

Silence.

Pure, unbridled silence radiated within the vast expanse.

As the golden lights danced around the room like fireflies, Rey stood in front of his Familiar—his question echoing in both their minds.

Ater's face remained the same. He had a calm smile, and despite the dangerous question he was asked, nothing changed in his demeanor.

"What would I do, huh…?" He slowly raised his hand to his chin and rubbed it while closing his eyes for a moment.

"Need some time to think about it?"

"No, no… that's not it." Ater responded swiftly to Rey's question, inhaling deeply as if absorbing the question.

"It's just that… I find it to be a pretty straightforward question."

Rey's curious face sharply contrasted the completely resolute expression that Ater gave.

"As your Familiar, everything I possess is yours. If you desire my life… it is yours."

His face no longer had a smile or any hint of amusement on it.

It was purely that of a serious disposition.

"I see. Good answer." Rey smiled and nodded.

Their 'Bond' confirmed everything Ater said.

It was still surprising to see such a hateful, uncontrollable Beast become so tame, but what Ater just had made all the remnant skepticism within him vanish.

Rey couldn't deny it any longer.

"I have confirmed your absolute loyalty to me." Rey's body slowly began to change, and his tall, imposing form vanished.

Replacing his 'Ralyks' form was his mundane appearance as Rey.

He had a plain face, and his dark hair complimented his dark irises. His height had grown to be a little above average, but he was still considerably shorter than Ater.

He had a baggy shirt on, and he wore plain shorts.

This was Rey—master of Ater and tamer of darkness—in all his glory.
